The Canadian Sustainable Companies GIC (the “MLGIC”) aims to provide you with a return linked to the price return performance of the common shares or the units of the 20 Canadian sustainable companies (the “Reference Shares”) specified in the relevant Information Statement. These Reference Shares are selected in accordance with the methodology set forth in the Information Statement. Investors of the MLGIC will be entitled to receive on the Maturity Date repayment of the principal invested on the Issue Date and a Variable Interest, depending on the performance of the Reference Portfolio over the term of the MLGIC. No interest or any other amount will be paid during the term of the MLGIC. The Variable Interest is calculated as follows:

• For MLGIC payout that includes a Maximum Interest and no Guaranteed Interest, the Variable Interest corresponds to the principal invested on the Issue Date multiplied by the Reference Portfolio Return, subject to such Maximum Interest.
• For MLGIC payout that includes both a Guaranteed Interest and a Maximum Interest, the Variable Interest corresponds to the principal invested on the Issue Date multiplied by the Reference Portfolio Return, subject to such Guaranteed Interest and Maximum Interest. 
• For MLGIC payout that includes only a Participation Factor (i.e., no Guaranteed Interest or Maximum Interest), the Variable Interest corresponds to the principal invested on the Issue Date multiplied by the Reference Portfolio Return, multiplied by the Participation Factor.

The Reference Portfolio Return used in the Variable Return calculation corresponds to the arithmetic average of the Reference Share Return of each of the Reference Shares comprising the Reference Portfolio. Such Reference Share Return is based on the average of three Reference Share Prices of each Reference Share determined over the last three months of the term of the MLGIC. The Reference Share Return will not take into account dividends and/or distributions paid by the issuers on account of each of the Reference Shares.
