 A Convenient Way to Gain Exposure to an Investment ThesisBasket Tracking Notes (BTNs) are investment securities that offer direct exposure to an asset basketInvestors are exposed to full upside and downside asset basket price movementsNo capital preservation, no upside caps, and no leverageThe asset basket is customizable, and may include a combination of stocks and/or equity indicies (either long or short exposure)Typically, BTNs are tailored to have a maturity of just over 1 yearAt maturity, the redemption value of the BTN will equal face value plus or minus the performance of the asset basket, plus any distributions on the underlying assets, and minus any fees incorporated into the BTN. Every BTN has a CUSIP and settles DTC  *  Note: See the Appendix page at the end of this presentation for a summary of some of the risk considerations for investing in structured products.  Basket Tracking Notes

 Some Risk ConsiderationsInvestors should carefully review the risk factors set forth in the related pricing supplement and product supplement before making an investment in structured notes (“Notes”). Some of the risks include, but are not limited to the following:Depending upon the terms of the Notes and the performance of the underlying asset, an investor may lose some or all of their investment in Notes.The Notes described herein are unsecured debt obligations of Bank of Montreal (“BMO”) and therefore an investment in such Notes is subject to the credit risk of BMO.The activities of BMO and its affiliates may conflict with an investor’s interests and may adversely affect the value of the Notes. The inclusion of agent’s commissions and hedging profits, if any, in the initial price to public of Notes, as well as hedging costs, is likely to adversely affect the price at which an investor can sell their Notes. The cover page of the pricing supplement of each Note will set forth an estimate of the initial value of the Note, which reflects these amounts. The estimated initial value of the Notes will be less than the purchase price of the Notes. The initial estimated value will not represent any future value of the Notes, and may also differ from the estimated value determined by any other party.An investor in the Notes will not have any shareholder rights and will have no right to receive any shares of any underlying asset.Notes will not be listed on any securities exchange. There may not be sufficient liquidity in any potential secondary market to allow an investor to trade or sell the Notes easily. If an investor is able to sell a particular Note prior to maturity, they may receive a price that is significantly less than their original investment. BMO and its affiliates may engage in hedging and trading activities related to the Notes that could adversely affect the payment at maturity of the Notes.Many economic and market factors will influence the value of the Notes. An investor must rely on their own evaluation of the merits of an investment in the Notes and any underlying asset referenced in a Note.Significant aspects of the tax treatment of Notes may be uncertain. Each investor must consult their own tax advisors in relation to how to treat Notes for tax purposes. Returns generated by Notes may be less than the returns of the underlying asset under certain market scenarios. For example, Notes may be issued with a maximum return, in which case an investment in the underlying asset could outperform an investment in the Notes. In addition, for most Notes other than BTNs, the investors will not receive the benefit of any dividends paid on the applicable underlying securities.  *  Appendix
