**What is the major product expected from the following synthetic sequence?**

The sequence starts with an organic molecule undergoing three different reactions:

1. **NBS** (N-Bromosuccinimide) with light (\( hv \)).
2. **tBuOK** (tert-Butoxide).
3. **HBr** in the presence of **\( H_2O_2 \)**.

The question asks which compound (A, B, C, or D) is the major product formed from these reactions.

Below the question are four structural options labeled A, B, C, and D:

- **Structure (A):** A bromine atom is attached on the side chain.
- **Structure (B):** A bromine atom is attached on a different position of the side chain.
- **Structure (C):** A bromine atom is attached on the aromatic ring.
- **Structure (D):** A bromine atom is attached on yet another position on the side chain. 

The options to select are given below the structures:

- \( \bigcirc \) A
- \( \bigcirc \) B
- \( \bigcirc \) C
- \( \bigcirc \) D

These selections represent choosing which of the four structures (A, B, C, or D) is the correct major product expected from the given synthetic sequence.
