Summary of Terms |

Hypothetical
Payout Profile*** |
Issuer: |
Bank of Montreal |

*** assumes a call premium equal to the lowest possible call premium
that may be determined on the pricing date.
If the securities are automatically called, the positive return on
the securities will be limited to the call premium, and you will not participate in any appreciation of the Underlier, which may be significant.
If the securities are automatically called, you will no longer have the opportunity to participate in any appreciation of the Underlier
at the upside participation rate.
If the securities are not automatically called, and the ending value
is less than the threshold value, you will have full downside exposure to the decrease in the value of the Underlier from the starting
value and will lose more than 25%, and possibly all, of the face amount of your securities at maturity.
On the date of the accompanying preliminary pricing supplement, the
estimated initial value of the securities is $957.50 per security. The estimated initial value of the securities at pricing may differ
from this value but will not be less than $910.00 per security. However, as discussed in more detail in the accompanying preliminary pricing
supplement, the actual value of the securities at any time will reflect many factors and cannot be predicted with accuracy. See “Estimated
Value of the Securities” in the accompanying preliminary pricing supplement.
