1.Award of Restricted Stock Units. Newmont hereby grants to Employee the right to receive from Newmont the number of Restricted Stock Units (the “RSUs”) specified in the Grant Acknowledgment, pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions and restrictions set forth in this Agreement and the Plan. Each RSU granted represents an unfunded right to receive one share of Newmont Common Stock, subject to the conditions and restrictions set forth in this Agreement and the Plan.
2.Vesting Period. The RSUs will vest in accordance with the vesting schedule set forth below, provided Employee remains employed by Newmont or one of its Subsidiaries through each vesting date, or unless otherwise provided in this Agreement:

3.Termination. Notwithstanding Section 2 above, the RSUs will vest as stated below in the specific circumstances: 
A.Termination of Employment for death, disability, and following change of control. If (i) Employee dies, or (ii) Employee’s employment with Newmont or any Subsidiary terminates by reason of (a) disability (as determined under the terms of the Long-Term Disability Plan of Newmont), or (b) termination of employment entitling Employee to benefits under the Executive Change of Control Plan of Newmont or the Change of Control Plan of Newmont, the outstanding RSUs subject to this Agreement shall become fully vested and nonforfeitable, as of the date of Employee’s death or other termination of employment, referred to in clause (ii) above. 
B.Termination of Employment under a Severance Plan of Newmont. If Employee terminates employment with Newmont or any Subsidiary and is entitled to: (i) separation benefits under the Severance Plan of Newmont or the Executive Severance Plan of Newmont, or; (ii) separation benefits for any involuntary termination, other than for Cause (as defined below), for Employees not eligible for benefits under the Severance Plan of Newmont or the Executive Severance Plan of Newmont, a pro-rata percentage of the RSUs will

vest as of the date of Employee’s employment termination in accordance with the following formula, and the remaining RSUs will be forfeited:
																								
	RSUs
vested =		Total RSUs Covered by This Agreement	X	Days Elapsed From Date of Grant to Date of Termination of Employment		-	Prior
Vestings
					1096			




If Employee is entitled to separation benefits as contemplated in clauses (i) or (ii) above in this Section 3.B, and is also retirement eligible as defined in Section 3.C below, the RSUs shall vest in accordance with this Section 3.B and not 3.C below. 
“Cause” is defined as: 1) engagement in illegal conduct or gross negligence or willful misconduct, provided that if the Employee acted in accordance with an authorized written opinion of Newmont’s, or an affiliated entity’s, legal counsel, such action will not constitute “Cause;” 2) any dishonest or fraudulent activity by the Employee or the reasonable belief by Newmont or an affiliated entity of the Employee’s breach of any contract, agreement or representation with the Newmont or an affiliated entity, or 3) violation, or Newmont or an affiliated entities’ belief of Employee’s violation of Newmont Corporation’s Code of Conduct and underlying policies and standards. 
C.Retirement. If Employee terminates employment with Newmont or any Subsidiary due to retirement, defined as: (1) at least age 55, (2) at least 5 years of continuous employment with Newmont and/or a Subsidiary, and (3) a total of at least 65 when adding age plus years of continuous employment, the RSUs shall vest as follows. 
(i)If Employee retires within 365 days from the date of grant, a pro-rata percentage of the RSUs will vest as of the date of Employee’s employment termination in accordance with the following formula, and the remaining RSUs will be forfeited:
																								
	RSUs

D.Other Terminations. If Employee terminates employment with Newmont or any Subsidiary under circumstances other than those set forth above in Sections 3.A through 3.C, Employee agrees that any unvested RSUs will be immediately and unconditionally forfeited without any action required by Employee or Newmont as of the date of such termination of employment. For the avoidance of doubt, if Employee terminates employment with Newmont or any Subsidiary during only a period prior to a vesting date (but where employment has terminated prior to the vesting date) does not entitle Employee to vest in a pro-rata portion of the RSUs on such date.
E.Discretion to Apply Termination Vesting Provisions.  Notwithstanding the provisions in this Section 3, if the Company or, if different, the Employer (as defined in Section 5 below), determines, in its sole discretion, that any provision in this Section 3 may be found to be unlawful, discriminatory or against public policy in any relevant jurisdiction, then the Company, in its sole discretion, may choose not to apply such provision to the RSUs.
4.No Ownership Rights Prior to Issuance of Common Stock. Employee shall not have any rights as a stockholder of Newmont with respect to the shares of Common Stock underlying the RSUs, including but not limited to the right to vote with respect to such shares of Common Stock, until and after the shares of Common Stock have been issued to Employee and transferred on the books and records of Newmont; provided, however, at the time that the Shares are delivered to Employee in settlement of the vested RSUs, Newmont shall make a cash payment to Employee equal to any dividends paid with respect to shares of Common Stock underlying such RSUs from the date of grant of the RSUs until the date such RSUs vest, minus any applicable Tax-Related Items (as defined in Section 5 below).
5.Withholding Taxes. Employee acknowledges that, regardless of any action taken by Newmont or, if different, his or her employer (the “Employer”), the ultimate liability for all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, fringe benefits tax, payment on account or other tax-related items related to Employee's participation in the Plan and legally applicable or deemed by Newmont or the Employer, in its discretion, to be an appropriate charge to Employee even if legally applicable to Newmont or the Employer (“Tax-Related Items”) is and remains his or her responsibility and may exceed the amount actually withheld by Newmont or the Employer. Employee further acknowledges that Newmont and/or the Employer (1) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the RSU, including, but not limited to, the grant, vesting or settlement of the RSU, the subsequent sale of shares of Common Stock acquired pursuant to such settlement and the receipt of any dividends and/or any dividend equivalents; and (2) do not commit to and are under no obligation to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the RSU to reduce or eliminate his or her liability for Tax-Related Items or achieve any particular tax result. Further, if Employee is subject to Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction, he or she acknowledges that Newmont and/or the Employer (or former employer, as applicable) may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction.
In connection with the relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, Employee agrees to make adequate arrangements satisfactory to Newmont and/or the Employer to satisfy all Tax-Related Items.
In this regard, Employee authorizes Newmont or its agent to satisfy any applicable withholding obligations with regard to all Tax-Related Items by withholding a number of whole shares of Common Stock to be issued upon settlement of the RSU having a fair market value on the applicable vesting date (or other 
- 3 -






applicable date on which the Tax-Related Items arise) not in excess of the amount of such Tax-Related Items. If Newmont determines in its discretion that withholding in shares of Common Stock is not permissible or advisable under applicable local law, Newmont may satisfy its obligations for Tax-Related Items by one or a combination of the following:
(a)withholding from Employee’s wages or other cash compensation paid to Employee by Newmont and/or the Employer; or
(b)withholding from proceeds of the sale of shares of Common Stock acquired upon vesting/settlement of the RSUs either through a voluntary sale or through a mandatory sale arranged Newmont (on Employee’s behalf pursuant to this authorization).
Provided, however, that if Employee is a Section 16 officer of Newmont under the Exchange Act, then Newmont will withhold by deducting from the shares of Common Stock otherwise deliverable to Employee in settlement of the RSUs a number of whole shares of Common Stock having a fair market value on the date that the withholding for the Tax-Related Items is determined) not in excess of the amount of such Tax-Related Items, unless the use of such withholding method is problematic under applicable tax or securities law or has materially adverse accounting consequences, in which case, the obligation for Tax-Related Items will be satisfied pursuant to (b) above.
Newmont may withhold or account for Tax-Related Items by considering applicable minimum statutory withholding rates or other applicable withholding rates in Employee’s jurisdiction(s), including maximum applicable rates to the extent permitted by the Plan, in which case Employee may receive a refund of any over-withheld amount in cash and will have no entitlement to the equivalent in Common Stock. If the obligation for Tax-Related Items is satisfied by withholding in shares of Common Stock, for tax purposes, Employee is deemed to have been issued the full number of shares of Common Stock subject to the vested RSU, notwithstanding that a number of the shares of Common Stock are held back solely for the purpose of paying the Tax-Related Items.
Notwithstanding anything in this Section 5 to the contrary, to avoid a prohibited distribution under Section 409A of the Code, if shares of Common Stock underlying the RSUs will be withheld (or sold on Employee’s behalf) to satisfy any Tax-Related Items arising prior to the date of settlement of the RSUs for any portion of the RSUs that is considered nonqualified deferred compensation subject to Code Section 409A, then the number of shares of Common Stock withheld (or sold on Employee’s behalf) shall not exceed the number of shares of Common Stock that equals the liability for the Tax-Related Items.
Finally, Employee agrees to pay to Newmont or the Employer, any amount of Tax-Related Items that Newmont or the Employer may be required to withhold or account for as a result of his or her participation in the Plan that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described. Newmont may refuse to issue or deliver the shares or the proceeds of the sale of shares of Common Stock, if Employee fails to comply with his or her obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items.
6.Delivery of Shares of Common Stock. As soon as reasonably practicable, but in any event within 30 days, following the date of vesting pursuant to Section 2 or 3, subject to Section 9(i), Newmont shall cause to be delivered to Employee a stock certificate or electronically deliver shares through a direct registration system for the number of shares of Common Stock (net of tax withholding as provided in Section 5) deliverable to Employee in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement; provided, however, that for non-Section 16 
- 4 -






officers of Newmont under the Exchange Act, Newmont may allow Employee to elect to have shares of Common Stock, which are deliverable in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement upon vesting (or a portion of such shares at least sufficient to satisfy Employee’s tax withholding obligations with respect to such Common Stock), sold on behalf of Employee, with the cash proceeds thereof, net of tax withholding, remitted to Employee, in lieu of Employee receiving a stock certificate or electronic delivery of shares in a direct registration system.
7.Nontransferability. Employee’s interest in the RSUs and any shares of Common Stock relating thereto may not be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned, encumbered or otherwise alienated or hypothecated otherwise than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, prior to such time as the shares of Common Stock have actually been issued and delivered to Employee.
8.Acknowledgements. Employee acknowledges receipt of and understands and agrees to the terms of the RSUs award and the Plan. In addition to the above terms, Employee understands and agrees to the following: 
(a)Employee hereby acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Plan and agrees to be bound by all of the terms and provisions thereof, including the terms and provisions adopted after the date of this Agreement but prior to the completion of the Vesting Period. If and to the extent that any provision contained in this Agreement is inconsistent with the Plan, the Plan shall govern.
(b)Employee acknowledges that as of the date of this Agreement, the Agreement, the Grant Acknowledgement and the Plan set forth the entire understanding between Employee and Newmont regarding the acquisition of shares of Common Stock underlying the RSUs in Newmont and supersedes all prior oral and written agreements pertaining to the RSUs.
(c)Employee understands that Newmont has reserved the right to amend or terminate the Plan at any time.
9.Miscellaneous
(a)No Right to Continued Employment. Neither the RSUs nor any terms contained in this Agreement shall confer upon Employee any expressed or implied right to be retained in the service of any Subsidiary for any period at all, nor restrict in any way the right of any such Subsidiary, which right is hereby expressly reserved, to terminate his or her employment at any time with or without cause. Employee acknowledges and agrees that any right to receive delivery of shares of Common Stock is earned only by continuing as an employee of a Subsidiary at the will of such Subsidiary, or satisfaction of any other applicable terms and conditions contained in this Agreement and the Plan, and not through the act of being hired, being granted the RSUs or acquiring shares of Common Stock hereunder.
(b)Compliance with Laws and Regulations. The award of the RSUs to Employee and the obligation of Newmont to deliver shares of Common Stock hereunder shall be subject to (i) all applicable federal, state, local and foreign laws, rules and regulations, and (ii) any registration, qualification, approvals or other requirements imposed by any government or regulatory agency or body which the Newmont Committee shall, in its sole discretion, determine to be necessary or applicable. Moreover, shares of Common Stock shall not be delivered hereunder if such delivery would be contrary to applicable law or the rules of any stock exchange.
- 5 -






(c)Investment Representation. If at the time of delivery of shares of Common Stock, the Common Stock is not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and/or there is no current prospectus in effect under the Securities Act with respect to the Common Stock, Employee shall execute, prior to the delivery of any shares of Common Stock to Employee by Newmont, an agreement (in such form as the Newmont Committee may specify) in which Employee represents and warrants that Employee is purchasing or acquiring the shares acquired under this Agreement for Employee’s own account, for investment only and not with a view to the resale or distribution thereof, and represents and agrees that any subsequent offer for sale or distribution of any kind of such shares shall be made only pursuant to either (i) a registration statement on an appropriate form under the Securities Act, which registration statement has become effective and is current with regard to the shares being offered or sold, or (ii) a specific exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, but in claiming such exemption Employee shall, prior to any offer for sale of such shares, obtain a prior favorable written opinion, in form and substance satisfactory to the Newmont Committee, from counsel for or approved by the Newmont Committee, as to the applicability of such exemption thereto.
(d)Definitions. All capitalized terms that are used in this Agreement that are not defined herein have the meanings defined in the Plan. In the event of a conflict between the terms of the Plan and the terms of this Agreement, the terms of the Plan shall prevail. 
(e)Notices. Any notice or other communication required or permitted hereunder shall, if to Newmont, be in accordance with the Plan, and, if to Employee, be in writing and delivered in person or by registered or certified mail or overnight courier, postage prepaid, addressed to Employee at his or her last known address as set forth in Newmont’s records.
(f)Severability. If any of the provisions of this Agreement should be deemed unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect.
(g)Governing Law. Except as to matters concerning the issuance of Common Stock or other matters of corporate governance, which shall be determined, and related RSUs provisions construed, under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, this Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Colorado, excluding any conflicts or choice of law rule or principle that might otherwise refer construction or interpretation of this Agreement to the substantive law of another jurisdiction.  The parties hereto submit to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the federal or state courts of Colorado to resolve any and all issues that may arise out of or relate to this Agreement or the Plan.
(h)Transferability of Agreement. This Agreement may not be transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated by either party hereto, other than by operation of law. This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns, including, in the case of Employee, his or her estate, heirs, executors, legatees, administrators, designated beneficiary and personal representatives. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to prevent transfer of the RSUs in the event of Employee’s death in accordance with Section 12(b) of the Plan. 
(i)Section 409A Requirements. For purposes of complying with Section 409A of the Code, if the RSUs constitute non-qualified deferred compensation, Employee is a U.S. taxpayer and the RSUs are to be settled at a time that is by reference to a termination of Employee’s employment, the Employer and Employee shall take all steps necessary (including with regard to any post-termination services by Employee) to ensure that 
- 6 -






a termination contemplated under Section 3 constitutes a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code.  Further, if and the foregoing sentence applies and Employee is a “specified employee” (within the meaning of Code Section 409A) at the time settlement would otherwise occur, settlement of the RSUs and any related dividend payments will be delayed until the first day of the seventh month following the date of such separation from service or, if earlier, until Employee’s death.
(j)No Advice Regarding Award. Newmont is not providing any tax, legal or financial advice, nor is Newmont making any recommendations regarding Employee’s participation in the Plan, or his or her acquisition or sale of the underlying shares of Common Stock. Employee should consult with his or her own personal tax, legal and financial advisors regarding his or her participation in the Plan before taking any action related to the Plan.
(k)Appendix. Notwithstanding any provisions in this Agreement, the Award shall be subject to any additional terms and conditions set forth in Appendix to this Agreement for Employee’s country. Moreover, if Employee relocates to one of the countries included in the Appendix, the additional terms and conditions for such country will apply to him or her, to the extent Newmont determines that the application of such terms and conditions is necessary or advisable for legal or administrative reasons. The Appendix constitutes part of this Agreement.
(l)Imposition of Other Requirements. Newmont reserves the right to impose other requirements on Employee’s participation in the Plan, on the RSUs and on any shares of Common Stock acquired under the Plan, to the extent Newmont determines it is necessary or advisable for legal or administrative reasons, and to require Employee to sign any additional agreements or undertakings that may be necessary to accomplish the foregoing.
(m)Modification. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Committee may amend this Agreement to the extent it determines necessary or appropriate to comply with the requirements of Code Section 409A and the guidance thereunder and any such amendment shall be binding on Employee.
(n)Waiver. Employee acknowledges that a waiver by Newmont of breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any other provision of this Agreement, or of any subsequent breach of this Agreement.
(o)Electronic Delivery and Acceptance. Newmont may, in its sole discretion, decide to deliver any documents related to current or future participation in the Plan by electronic means. Employee hereby consents to receive such documents by electronic delivery and agrees to participate in the Plan through an on-line or electronic system established and maintained by Newmont or a third party designated by Newmont.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, pursuant to Employee’s Grant Acknowledgement (including without limitation, the Terms and Conditions section hereof), incorporated herein by reference, and electronically executed by Employee, Employee agrees to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

APPENDIX TO THE
NEWMONT CORPORATION

RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT
Unless otherwise provided below, capitalized terms used but not explicitly defined in this Appendix shall have the same definitions as in the Plan and/or the Agreement (as applicable). The terms and conditions in Part A apply to all Employees outside the United States. The country-specific terms and conditions in Part B will also apply to Employee if he or she resides in one of the countries listed below.
Terms and Conditions
This Appendix includes additional country-specific terms and conditions that govern Employee’s RSUs if he or she resides and/or works in one of the countries listed herein. 
If Employee is a resident of a country other than the one in which he or she is currently residing and/or working, relocate to another country after the RSUs are granted, or are considered a resident of another country for local law purposes, the terms and conditions of the RSUs contained herein may not be applicable to Employee, and Newmont shall, in its discretion, determine to what extent the terms and conditions contained herein shall apply to him or her.
Notifications
This Appendix also includes information regarding certain issues of which Employee should be aware with respect to his or her participation in the Plan. The information is based on the securities, exchange control and other laws in effect in the respective countries as of February 2022. Such laws are often complex and change frequently. As a result, Newmont strongly recommends that Employee not rely on the information in this Appendix as the only source of information relating to the consequences of his or her participation in the Plan because the information may be out of date at the time that Employee’s RSUs vest or he or she sells shares of Common Stock acquired under the Plan.
In addition, the information contained herein is general in nature and may not apply to Employee’s particular situation, and Newmont is not in a position to assure him or her of a particular result. Accordingly, Employee should seek appropriate professional advice as to how the relevant laws in his or her country may apply to his or her situation.
Finally, if Employee is a resident of a country other than the one in which he or she is currently residing and/or working, transfers employment after the RSUs are granted, or is considered a resident of another country for local law purposes, the information contained herein may not apply to Employee.

1.Nature of Grant. The following provisions supplement Section 8 of the Agreement:

(e)Employee acknowledges and understands that the future value of the shares of Common Stock acquired by Employee under the Plan is unknown and cannot be predicted with certainty and that no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages arises from the forfeiture of the RSUs or termination of the Plan or the diminution in value of any shares of Common Stock acquired under the Plan and Employee irrevocably releases Newmont and its Subsidiaries from any such claim that may arise.

(h)Employee acknowledges and understands that unless otherwise agreed with Newmont, the RSUs and the shares of Common Stock subject to the RSUs, and the income and value of the same, are not granted as consideration for, or in connection with the service he or she may provide as a director of a Subsidiary of Newmont.
(i)Employee acknowledges and understands the RSUs and the share of Common Stock subject to the RSUs and the income and value of the same, are not part of normal or expected compensation salary for any purpose.

2.Data Privacy Information and Consent. Newmont headquarters is located at 6900 E.

If Employee would like to participate in the Plan, please review the following information about Newmont’s data processing practices and declare Employee’s consent. 
(a)Data Collection and Usage. Newmont collects, processes and uses personal data of Employees, including name, home address, email address and telephone number, date of birth, social insurance number or other identification number, salary, citizenship, job title, any shares of Common Stock or directorships held in Newmont, and details of all awards or other entitlements to shares of Common Stock, granted, canceled, exercised, vested, unvested or outstanding in Employee’s favor (“Data”), which Newmont receives from Employee or the Employer. In connection with the grant of the RSU, Newmont will collect Employee’s Data for purposes of administering Employee’s participation in the Plan. Newmont’s legal basis for the processing of Employee’s Data, where required, if Employee’s consent.
(b)Stock Plan Administration Service Providers. Newmont transfers Data to Fidelity Investments, an independent service provider based in the United States, which assists Newmont with the implementation, administration and management of the Plan. In the future, Newmont may select a different service provider and share Employee’s Data with another company that serves in a similar manner. Newmont’s service provider will open an account for Employee to receive shares of Common Stock. Employee may be asked to agree on separate terms and data processing practices with the service provider, which is a condition to Employee’s ability to participate in the Plan. 
(c)International Data Transfers. Newmont and its service providers are based in the United States. If Employee is outside the United States, Employee should note that his or her country has enacted data privacy laws that are different from the United States.

(d)Data Retention. Newmont will use Employee’s Data only as long as is necessary to implement, administer and manage Employee’s participation in the Plan or as required to comply with legal or regulatory 
- 10 -






obligations, including under tax, exchange control, labor and security laws. This period may extend beyond Employee’s period of employment with the Employer.  When Newmont or the Employer no longer need Data for any of the above purposes, they will cease processing it in this contact and remove it from all of their systems used for such purposes to the fullest extent practicable.
(e)Voluntariness and Consequences of Denial or Withdrawal. Employee’s participation in the Plan and Employee’s grant of consent is purely voluntary. Employee may deny or withdraw his or her consent at any time. If Employee does not consent, or if Employee withdraws his or her consent, Employee cannot participate in the Plan. This would not affect Employee’s salary as an employee or his or her career; Employee would merely forfeit the opportunities associated with the Plan. 
(f)Data Subject Rights. Employee has a number of rights under data privacy laws in his or her country. Depending on where Employee is based, Employee’s rights may include the right to (i) request access or copies of Data Newmont processes, (ii) rectification of incorrect Data, (iii) deletion of Data, (iv) restrict the processing of Data, (v) restrict the portability of Data, (vi) lodge complaints with the competent tax authorities in Employee’s country, and/or (vii) receive a list with the names and addresses of any potential recipients of Data.

Employee acknowledges that he or she is sufficiently proficient in English, or, alternatively, Employee acknowledges that he or she will seek appropriate assistance, to understand the terms and conditions in the Agreement. Furthermore, if Employee received this Agreement or any other document related to the Plan translated into a language other than English and if the meaning of the translated versions is different than the English version, the English version will control. 
4.Insider-Trading/Market-Abuse Laws. Employee acknowledges that, depending on his or her country or broker’s country, or the country in which Common Stock is listed, he or she may be subject to insider trading restrictions and/or market abuse laws in applicable jurisdictions, which may affect his or her ability to accept, acquire, sell or attempt to sell, or otherwise dispose of the shares of Common Stock, rights to shares of Common Stock (e.g., RSUs) or rights linked to the value of Common Stock, during such times as Employee is considered to have “inside information” regarding Newmont (as defined by the laws or regulations in applicable jurisdictions, including the United States and Employee’s country). Local insider trading laws and regulations may prohibit the cancellation or amendment of orders Employee placed before possessing inside information. Furthermore, Employee may be prohibited from (i) disclosing insider information to any third party, including fellow employees and (ii) “tipping” third parties or causing them to otherwise buy or sell securities. Any restrictions under these laws or regulations are separate from and in addition to any restrictions that may be imposed under any applicable Newmont insider trading policy. Employee acknowledges that it is his or her responsibility to comply with any applicable restrictions, and Employee should speak to his or her personal advisor on this matter.
5.Foreign Asset/Account Reporting Requirements. Employee acknowledges that there may be certain foreign asset and/or account reporting requirements which may affect his or her ability to acquire or hold the 
- 11 -






shares of Common Stock acquired under the Plan or cash received from participating in the Plan (including from any dividends paid on the shares of Common Stock acquired under the Plan) in a brokerage or bank account outside his or her country. Employee may be required to report such accounts, assets or transactions to the tax or other authorities in his or her country. Employee also may be required to repatriate sale proceeds or other funds received as a result of participating in the Plan to his or her country through a designated bank or broker within a certain time after receipt. Employee acknowledges that it is his or her responsibility to be compliant with such regulations, and he or she should speak to his or her personal advisor on this matter.
6.General.  Notwithstanding the provisions of the Agreement, if Newmont or the Employer develops a good faith belief that any provision may be found to be unlawful, discriminatory or against public policy in any relevant jurisdiction, then Newmont in its sole discretion may choose not to apply such provision to the RSU, nor any RSU grant in Employee’s jurisdiction.

Securities Law Information. Employee is permitted to sell shares of Common Stock acquired through the Plan through the designated broker appointed under the Plan, if any, provided the resale of shares of Common Stock acquired under the Plan takes place outside Canada through the facilities of a stock exchange on which the shares of Common Stock are listed on the New York Stock Exchange.

RSUs must be reported (generally, at a nil cost) if the C$100,000 cost threshold is exceeded because of other foreign specified property held by Employee.  When shares of Common Stock are acquired, their cost generally is the adjusted cost base (“ACB”) of the shares of Common Stock.  The ACB would ordinarily equal the fair market value of the shares of Common Stock at the time of acquisition, but if

Labor Law Policy and Acknowledgment.  By accepting the RSUs, Employee expressly recognizes that Newmont, with registered offices at 6900 E. Layton Ave., Suite 700, Denver, Colorado 80237, U.S.A., is solely responsible for the administration of the Plan and that Employee’s participation in the Plan and acquisition of shares of Common Stock do not constitute an employment relationship between Employee and Newmont since Employee is participating in the Plan on a wholly commercial basis and his or her sole employer is Newmont’s Subsidiary in Mexico (“Newmont Mexico”).  Based on the foregoing, Employee expressly recognizes that the Plan and the benefits that he or she may derive from participating in the Plan do not establish any rights between Employee and the employer, Newmont Mexico, and do not form part of the employment conditions and/or benefits provided by Newmont Mexico, and any modification of the Plan or its termination shall not constitute a change or impairment of the terms and conditions of Employee’s employment.
Employee further understands that his or her participation in the Plan is as a result of a unilateral and discretionary decision of Newmont; therefore, Newmont reserves the absolute right to amend and/or discontinue Employee’s participation at any time without any liability to Employee.
Finally, Employee hereby declares that he or she does not reserve to him- or herself any action or right to bring any claim against Newmont for any compensation or damages regarding any provision of the Plan or the benefits derived under the Plan, and Employee therefore grants a full and broad release to Newmont, and its subsidiaries, branches, representative offices, shareholders, directors, officers, employees, agents, or legal representatives with respect to any claim that may arise.

OFFER OF RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS 
TO AUSTRALIAN RESIDENT EMPLOYEES




This Offer Document sets out information regarding the grant of Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”) under the Newmont Corporation 2020 Stock Incentive Compensation Plan (the “Plan”) to eligible Australian resident employees of Newmont Corporation (“Newmont”) and its Australian Affiliates.

The purpose of the Plan (i) to enhance Newmont’s and the Affiliates’ ability to attract highly qualified personnel; (ii) to strengthen Newmont’s and the Affiliates’ retention capabilities; (iii) to enhance the long-term performance and competitiveness of Newmont and the Affiliates; and (iv) to align the interests of participants with those of Newmont’s stockholders. To accomplish such purposes, the Plan provides that Newmont may grant of equity awards, including RSUs.

c.    the Plan Prospectus describing the terms of the Plan, including the Addendum for Australia (the “Plan Prospectus”).

- 19 -






5.    WHO IS ELIGIBLE TO PARTICIPATE?
You are eligible to participate under the Plan if, at the time of the offer, you are an Australian resident Employee of Newmont or its Australian Affiliate and meet the eligibility requirements established under the Plan.
6.    WHAT ARE THE MATERIAL TERMS OF THE RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS?
(a)    What are Restricted Stock Units?
RSUs represent the right to receive shares of Common Stock of Newmont upon satisfaction of vesting conditions.  When your RSUs vest, you will be issued shares of Common Stock at no additional cost to you.  The RSUs are subject to forfeiture until the RSUs vest.  The restrictions will be set forth in the Award Agreement.
Prior to the vesting of your RSUs, you will not be eligible to receive any dividends or dividend equivalent payments.   At settlement of the RSUs, you may be granted dividend equivalents which will be accrued for you if and to the extent dividends are paid by Newmont on its Common Stock.  Payment of such dividend equivalents will be made, without interest or earnings, pursuant to the terms of the Plan and Award Agreement. 
(b)    Do I have to pay any money to receive the Restricted Stock Units?
No.  You pay no monetary consideration to receive the RSUs.  Nor do you pay any monetary consideration to receive the shares of Common Stock upon vesting.
(c)    How many shares of Common Stock will I receive upon vesting of my Restricted Stock Units?
The details of your RSUs and the Common Stock subject to the RSUs are set out in the relevant Award Agreement.
(d)    When do I become a stockholder?
You are not a stockholder merely as a result of holding RSUs, and the RSUs will not entitle you to vote or receive dividends, notices of meeting, proxy statements and other materials provided to stockholders until the restrictions lapse, at which time the RSUs vest and may be converted into an equivalent number of shares of Common Stock (unless Newmont, in its sole discretion, determines to pay the Common Stock’s cash equivalent to settle the RSUs).  In this regard, you are not recorded as the owner of the Common Stock prior to vesting and issuance of such shares of Common Stock.
(e)    Can I transfer the Restricted Stock Units to someone else?
No.  The RSUs are generally non-transferable, unless otherwise provided in your Award Agreement; once shares of Common Stock are issued upon vesting, the shares of Common Stock will be freely tradable (subject to the Company’s policies and applicable laws regarding insider trading).  
7.    WHAT IS A SHARE IN THE COMPANY
The Common Stock subject to the RSUs is the common stock of Newmont Corporation, the U.S. parent corporation.  The common stock of a U.S. corporation is analogous to ordinary shares of an Australian corporation.  Each holder of Common Stock is entitled to one vote for every share of Common Stock.
Dividends may be paid on the Common Stock out of any funds of Newmont legally available for dividend at the discretion of Newmont. 
The Common Stock is listed and may be traded on a number of stock exchanges, including the New York Stock Exchange, under the symbol “NEM.”
    The Common Stock is not liable to any further calls for payment of capital or for other assessment by Newmont and has no sinking fund provisions, pre-emptive rights, conversion rights or redemption provisions.
- 20 -






8.    HOW CAN I OBTAIN UPDATED INDICATIVE EXAMPLES OF THE CURRENT MARKET PRICE IN AUSTRALIAN DOLLARS?
You may ascertain the current market price of the Common Stock as traded on the New York Stock Exchange at https://www.nyse.com/index under the symbol “NEM.”
The Australian dollar equivalent of that price can be obtained at: http://www.rba.gov.au/statistics/frequency/exchange-rates.html.
This will not be a prediction of what the market price per share of Common Stock will be when the RSUs vest and are settled or the applicable exchange rate on the actual date of vesting or settlement.
9.    WHAT ADDITIONAL RISK FACTORS APPLY TO AUSTRALIAN RESIDENTS’ PARTICIPATION IN THE PLAN?
v Australian residents should have regard for risk factors relevant to investment in securities generally and, in particular, to the holding of the Common Stock.  For example, the price at which Common Stock is quoted on the New York Stock Exchange market may increase or decrease due to a number of factors.  There is no guarantee that the price of the Common Stock will increase.  Factors which may affect the price of Common Stock include fluctuations in the domestic and international market for listed stocks, general economic conditions, including interest rates, inflation rates, commodity and oil prices, changes to government fiscal, monetary or regulatory policies, legislation or regulation, the nature of the markets in which Newmont operates and general operational and business risks.  
You should be aware that in addition to fluctuations in value caused by the fortunes of Newmont, the value of Common Stock you may hold will be affected by the U.S.$/A$ exchange rate.  Participation in the Plan involves certain risks related to fluctuations in this rate of exchange.
Please note that if you offer your shares of Common Stock for sale to a person or entity resident in Australia, your offer may be subject to disclosure requirements under Australian law.  Please obtain legal advice on your disclosure obligations prior to making any such offer.
10.    PLAN MODIFICATION, TERMINATION ETC.
The Board may amend, alter, suspend, discontinue or terminate the Plan, retroactively or otherwise, but no such amendment, alteration, suspension or termination of the Plan shall be made which would materially impair the previously accrued rights of any participant with respect to a previously granted RSU without such participant’s consent, except any such amendment made to comply with applicable law, tax rules, stock exchange rules or accounting rules.
11.    WHAT ARE THE AUSTRALIAN TAX CONSEQUENCES OF PARTICIPATION IN THE PLAN? 
Please refer to the Addendum for Australia to the Plan Prospectus for information regarding the Australian tax treatment of your RSUs.
12.    WHAT ARE THE U.S. TAX CONSEQUENCES OF PARTICIPATION IN THE PLAN?
If you are not a U.S. citizen or permanent resident, you will not be subject to U.S. tax by reason only of the grant and vesting of the RSUs or the sale of Common Stock.  However, liability for U.S. taxes may accrue if you are otherwise subject to U.S. taxes. 


The above is an indication only of the likely U.S. taxation consequences for Australian resident who is granted RSUs under the Plan.  You should seek your own advice as to the U.S. taxation consequences of your participation in the Plan.
