KEY TERMS

Issuer: Royal Bank of Canada

Issuer Credit Ratings: Moody's: Aa1; S&P: AA-; DBRS: AA

Currency: CAD

Minimum Investment: 50 Securities or $5,000.

Term: Approximately 7.0 years

Principal at Risk: The Securities are not principal protected.

Underlying Index: The return on the Securities is linked to the performance of the Solactive United Parcel Service AR 6.64 Index (the "Underlying Index"). The Underlying Index is an adjusted return index that aims to track the gross total return performance of the Solactive United Parcel Service GTR Index (the "Target Index"), subject to a reduction of a synthetic dividend of 6.64 index points per annum (the "Adjusted Return Factor"). The only constituent securities in the Target Index are the shares of class B common stock of United Parcel Service, 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 July 11, 2025 was 100.21. The Adjusted Return Factor divided by the Closing Level was therefore equal to $6.6261\%$ on July 11, 2025. If an Autocall Redemption Event does not occur, over the term of the Securities the sum of the Adjusted Return Factor will be approximately 46.48 index points, representing $46.3826\%$ of the Closing Level on July 11, 2025. 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 July 11, 2025, the annual dividend yield on the Target Index was $6.458\%$ , representing an aggregate dividend yield of approximately $54.970\%$ compounded annually over the term of the Securities, on the assumption that the dividend yield remains constant.

Issue Date: July 25, 2025.

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

The following examples show how the 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 below assume that a holder of the Securities has purchased Securities with an aggregate Principal Amount of $100.00 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 shown below are rounded to the nearest whole cent for ease of reading, but the amount(s) payable to an investor per Security may reflect more decimal places.

Example #1 — Loss Scenario with Payment on the Maturity Date at Less Than the Principal Amount

• 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.
• Closing Level of the Underlying 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:

$$
\text{Principal Amount of Securities} \times 1.1000\% \text{ per Interest Period} \times 41 \text{ Interest Periods}
$$

$$
\$100.00 \times 1.1000\% \times 41 = \$45.10
$$

(ii) Final Redemption Amount

In this example, the Initial Index Level $(X_{i})$ is 100.21 and the Final Index Level $(X_{f})$ is 34.07. Therefore, the Final Redemption Amount is as follows:

$$
\$100.00 \times (X_{f} / X_{i})
$$

$$
\$100.00 \times (34.07 / 100.21) = \$34.00
$$

Therefore, the total amounts payable per Security from the Issue Date to the Maturity Date are:

(a) Total Interest Payments: $45.10
(b) Final Redemption Amount: $34.00
(c) Total amount paid over the term of the Securities: $79.10

The equivalent annually compounded rate of return in this example is -3.29%.

---

Example #2 — Gain Scenario with Payment on the Maturity Date at the Principal Amount

• 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.
• Closing Level of the Underlying 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 $\times$ 1.1000% per Interest Period $\times$ 42 Interest Periods

$$
\$100.00 \times 1.1000\% \times 42 = \$46.20
$$

(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: $46.20
(b) Final Redemption Amount: $100.00
(c) Total amount paid over the term of the Securities: $146.20

The equivalent annually compounded rate of return in this example is 5.58%.

---

Example #3 — Gain Scenario with Autocall Redemption Event

• 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.
• Closing Level of the Underlying Index

In this scenario, the Closing Level is at or above the Autocall Redemption Level on the Observation Date that falls 33 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 33 Observation Dates prior to the Autocall Redemption Date.

(i) Interest Payments

Digital Payout Events occur on each of the 33 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 $\times$ 1.1000% per Interest Period $\times$ 33 Interest Periods

$$
\$100.00 \times 1.1000\% \times 33 = \$36.30
$$

(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: $36.30
(b) Autocall Redemption Amount: $100.00
(c) Total amount paid over the term of the Securities: $136.30

The equivalent annually compounded rate of return in this example is 11.92%.
