| Underlying Index: The return on the Securities is linked to the performance of the Solactive Enbridge AR 3.66 Index (the “Underlying Index”). The Underlying Index is an adjusted return index that aims to track the gross total return performance of the Solactive Enbridge GTR Index (the “Target Index”), subject to a reduction of a synthetic dividend of 3.66 index points per annum calculated daily in arrears (the “Adjusted Return Factor”). The only constituent securities in the Target Index are the common shares of Enbridge Inc. (the “Constituent Securities” and the “Constituent Securities Issuer”, respectively).For the avoidance of doubt, the return on the Securities is linked to the Underlying Index and is not linked to the Target Index or the Constituent Securities. The Closing Level on June 7, 2024 was 48.84. The Adjusted Return Factor divided by the Closing Level was therefore equal to 7.4939% on June 7, 2024. If an Autocall Redemption Event does not occur, over the term of the Securities the sum of the Adjusted Return Factor will be approximately 25.62 index points, representing 52.4570% of the Closing Level on June 7, 2024. For the calculation of the level of the Target Index, any dividends or other distributions paid on the Constituent Securities are assumed to be reinvested on the Constituent Securities. As of June 7, 2024, the annual dividend yield on the Target Index was 7.3257%, representing an aggregate dividend yield of approximately 64.0311% compounded annually over the term of the Securities, on the assumption that the dividend yield remains constant. |

| and provided that (i) the Securities are not redeemed by the Bank as described below and (ii) if any Interest Payment Date is | |
| not a Business Day, such Interest Payment Date will be the first following day that is a Business Day. For greater certainty, | |
| the final Interest Payment, if any, will be made on the earlier of the Autocall Redemption Date (defined below), if any, and | |
| the Maturity Date. | |
| Interest Payments: | Interest payments, if any, on the Securities will be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date at a fixed interest rate of |
| 1.0850% for each monthly period ending on an Interest Payment Date (an “Interest Period”) in which a Digital Payout Event | |
| occurs. | |
| If a Digital Payout Event does not occur on an Observation Date, no interest will be payable for the relevant Interest Period. | |
| Digital Payout Event: | If the Closing Level is greater than or equal to the Coupon Barrier Level on the relevant Observation Date, a Digital Payout |
| Event will occur. | |
| Autocall Redemption Event: | If the Closing Level on an Observation Date immediately preceding an Autocall Redemption Date is greater than or equal to |
| 105.00% of the Initial Index Level (the “Autocall Redemption Level”), an Autocall Redemption Event will occur. | |
| Following the occurrence of an Autocall Redemption Event, the Securities will be redeemed for an amount equal to the | |

| (b) if the Final Index Level is less than the Protection Barrier Level, an amount equal to the Index Return, but in any event | |
| not less than $1.00. | |
| Index Return: | $100 × (Xf/ Xi), |
| where: | |
| “Xf” means the Final Index Level, and | |
| “Xi” means the Initial Index Level. | |

Generally, to be effective on a Business Day, a redemption request will need to be initiated by 2:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on that Business Day (or such other time as may be established by Fundserv). Any request received after such time will be deemed to be a request sent and received on the next following Business Day.

Sample Calculations of Final Redemption Amount or Autocall Redemption Amount and Interest Payments:
The following examples show how return on the Securities would be calculated under different scenarios. These examples are included for illustration purposes only. The performance of the Underlying Index used in the examples is not an estimate or forecast of the performance of the Underlying Index or the Securities. The actual performance of the Underlying Index and the Securities will be different from these examples and the differences may be material. All examples assume that a holder of the Securities has purchased Securities with an aggregate Principal Amount of $100 and that no Extraordinary Event has occurred. For convenience, each vertical line in the charts below represents both a hypothetical Observation Date and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date. Where applicable, dollar amounts are rounded to the nearest whole cent.
Example #1 — Loss Scenario with Payment on the Maturity Date at Less Than the Principal Amount
==> picture [418 x 190] intentionally omitted <==
-
Indicates Observation Dates on which the Coupon Barrier Level is breached; therefore no Interest Payment will occur on the related Interest Payment Date.
-
Indicates Observation Dates on which there is a Digital Payout Event; therefore an Interest Payment will occur on the related Interest Payment Date.
-
Solactive Enbridge AR 3.66 Index
In this scenario, the Closing Level is below the Autocall Redemption Level on all Observation Dates so the Securities would not be redeemed before the Maturity Date. The Closing Level is at or above the Coupon Barrier Level on 41 of the 84 Observation Dates. On the Final Valuation Date, the Final Index Level is below the Protection Barrier Level.
(i) Interest Payments
Digital Payout Events occur on 41 of the 84 Observation Dates. Therefore, an Interest Payment would be payable for 41 Interest Periods on the applicable Interest Payment Date, for total Interest Payments of:
Principal Amount of Securities × 1.0850% per Interest Period × 41 Interest Periods
$100.00 × 1.0850% × 41 = $44.49
(ii) Final Redemption Amount
In this example, the Initial Index Level (Xi) is 48.84 and the Final Index Level (Xf) is 20.02. Therefore, the Final Redemption Amount is as follows:
$100.00 × (Xf / Xi)
$100.00 × (20.02 / 48.84) = $40.99
Therefore, the total amounts payable per Security from the Issue Date to the Maturity Date are:
(a) Total Interest Payments: $44.49
-
(b) Final Redemption Amount: $40.99
-
(c) Total amount paid over the term of the Securities: $85.48
The equivalent annually compounded rate of return in this example is -2.22%.

Example #2 — Gain Scenario with Payment on the Maturity Date at the Principal Amount
==> picture [419 x 190] intentionally omitted <==
-
Indicates Observation Dates on which the Coupon Barrier Level is breached; therefore no Interest Payment will occur on the related Interest Payment Date.
-
Indicates Observation Dates on which there is a Digital Payout Event; therefore an Interest Payment will occur on the related Interest Payment Date.
-
Solactive Enbridge AR 3.66 Index
In this scenario, the Closing Level is below the Autocall Redemption Level on all Observation Dates so the Securities would not be redeemed before the Maturity Date. The Closing Level is at or above the Coupon Barrier Level on 42 of the 84 Observation Dates. On the Final Valuation Date, the Final Index Level is at or above the Protection Barrier Level.
(i) Interest Payments
Digital Payout Events occur on 42 of the 84 Observation Dates. Therefore, an Interest Payment would be payable for 42 Interest Periods on the applicable Interest Payment Date, for total Interest Payments of:
Principal Amount of Securities × 1.0850% per Interest Period × 42 Interest Periods
$100.00 × 1.0850% × 42 = $45.57
(ii) Final Redemption Amount
In this example, the Final Index Level is greater than or equal to the Protection Barrier Level. Therefore, the Final Redemption Amount is $100.00.
Therefore, the total amounts payable per Security from the Issue Date to the Maturity Date are:
-
(a) Total Interest Payments: $45.57
-
(b) Final Redemption Amount: $100.00
-
(c) Total amount paid over the term of the Securities: $145.57
The equivalent annually compounded rate of return in this example is 5.51%.

Sample Calculations: (continued)
Example #3 — Gain Scenario with Autocall Redemption Event
==> picture [418 x 190] intentionally omitted <==
-
Indicates Observation Date on which the Autocall Redemption Level is exceeded.
-
Indicates Observation Dates on which there is a Digital Payout Event; therefore an Interest Payment will occur on the related Interest Payment Date.
-
Solactive Enbridge AR 3.66 Index
In this scenario, the Closing Level is at or above the Autocall Redemption Level on the Observation Date that falls 36 months into the term of the Securities. This would constitute an Autocall Redemption Event and the Bank would redeem the Securities on the next succeeding Autocall Redemption Date. The Closing Level is at or above the Coupon Barrier Level on 36 Observation Dates prior to the Autocall Redemption Date.
(i) Interest Payments
Digital Payout Events occur on each of the 36 Observation Dates. Therefore, an Interest Payment would be payable for each Interest Period on the applicable Interest Payment Date (including on the Autocall Redemption Date), for total Interest Payments of:
Principal Amount of Securities × 1.0850% per Interest Period × 36 Interest Periods
$100.00 × 1.0850% × 36 = $39.06
(ii) Autocall Redemption Amount
The Autocall Redemption Amount per Security is equal to $100.00.
Therefore, the total amounts payable per Security from the Issue Date to the Autocall Redemption Date are:
(a) Total Interest Payments: $39.06
-
(b) Autocall Redemption Amount: $100.00
-
(c) Total amount paid over the term of the Securities: $139.06
The equivalent annually compounded rate of return in this example is 11.62%.

Initial Estimated Value:
The initial estimated value of the Securities on or about the date of the Pricing Supplement was $93.55 per Security, which is less than the price to the public and is not an indication of the actual profit to the Bank or its affiliates. The actual value of the Securities at any time will reflect many factors and may be less than this amount. The initial estimated value of the Securities is an estimate only and does not represent a minimum price at which the Bank, RBC DS or any of our affiliates would be willing to purchase the Securities in any secondary market. We describe our determination of the initial estimated value in more detail in the Pricing Supplement.
