The Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm on the Companys internal control over financial reporting as of
December 31, 2015 on page 91 of Exhibit 99.2: Managements Discussion and Analysis and annual audited consolidated financial statements, together with the reports of independent registered accounting firm, is incorporated by reference

AUDIT COMMITTEE FINANCIAL EXPERT

The Board of Directors of Rogers Communications Inc. has determined that the Company has at least two audit committee financial
experts (as defined in paragraph 8(b) of General Instruction B of Form 40-F) serving on its Audit and Risk Committee. The audit committee financial experts are C. William D. Birchall and John H. Clappison. Mr. Birchall has
been determined by the Board to be an independent director as such term is defined under the Canadian Securities Administrators National Instrument 52-110 (Audit Committees) and the standards of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and
the New York Stock Exchange relating to the independence of audit committee members. Mr. Clappisons son-in-law is a partner at KPMG LLP, the auditors of the Company, and therefore Mr. Clappison is deemed to be a non-independent
director under the New York Stock Exchange Listing Standards. However, Mr. Clappisons son-in-law has no involvement in the audit of the Company and Mr. Clappison has been determined by the Board to be an independent director as such
term is defined under National Instrument 52-110, which is the Canadian corporate governance rule that applies to the Company. Under the rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United
States), such relationship does not impair the independence of KPMG LLP. The Boards designation of Mr. Birchall and Mr. Clappison as audit committee financial experts does not impose on them any duties, obligations or liability that
are greater than the duties, obligations and liability imposed on them as a members of the Audit and Risk Committee and Board of Directors in the absence of such designation or identification. In addition, the designation of Mr. Birchall
and Mr. Clappison as audit committee financial experts does not affect the duties, obligations or liability of any other member of the Audit and Risk Committee or Board of Directors. See also Item 17  Audit and Risk
Committee on page 33 of the Companys Annual Information Form, attached as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated by reference herein.

CODE OF CONDUCT AND ETHICS

The Company has adopted a Directors Code of Conduct and Ethics that applies to all directors and Business Conduct Policy that apply to all
directors, officers and employees (the Codes). The Codes have been posted on the Rogers website under the Corporate Governance section at rogers.com/investors. A copy of the Codes will also be provided upon request to Investor Relations, 333 Bloor
Street East, 10th Floor, Toronto, Ontario, M4W 1G9.
