BMO ETNs

Uncertain Principal Repayment - You may receive less than the principal amount of your ETNs at maturity, call or upon redemption. If the level of the underlying index decreases, or is insufficient to offset the negative effect of the applicable fees, including any redemption fee, you will receive less, and possibly significantly less, than your original investment in the ETNs. The ETNs are riskier than ordinary unsecured debt securities and have no principal protection.

Credit Risk of Bank of Montreal - The ETNs are unsecured debt obligations of the issuer, Bank of Montreal, and are not, either directly or indirectly, an obligation of or guaranteed by any third party. Any payments you are entitled to receive on your ETNs, including any payment at maturity, call or redemption, are subject to our ability to pay our obligations as they come due. As a result, the actual and perceived creditworthiness of Bank of Montreal will affect the market value, if any, of the ETNs prior to maturity, call or redemption. In addition, in the event that Bank of Montreal was to default on its obligations, you may not receive any amounts owed to you under the terms of the ETNs.

No Fixed Interest Payments - You will not receive any fixed periodic interest payments on the ETNs.

A Trading Market for the ETNs May Not Continue Over the Term of the ETNs - Although the ETNs are listed on a national securities exchange, a trading market for your ETNs may not continue for the term of the ETNs. We are not required to maintain any listing of the ETNs on any exchange or quotation system. If the ETNs are delisted, the trading market for the ETNs may become illiquid and have a negative effect on their trading price.

Call Feature - Your ETNs may be repurchased by us on or after a date specified in the applicable pricing supplement at our option and without your consent. In the event that we call any ETNs, the call settlement amount may be significantly less than the stated principal amount of the ETNs or the price at which you purchased your ETNs.

Restrictions on Repurchases by Us - You must offer the applicable minimum redemption amount of ETNs to us for your offer for redemption to be considered. You must also follow the redemption procedures in the applicable pricing supplement for us to accept your redemption request.

Tax Treatment - Significant aspects of the tax treatment of the ETNs are uncertain. You should consult with your own tax advisor about your own tax situation.
