Forward-Looking Information

Forward-Looking Information:Certain statements in this AIF, referred to herein as "forward-looking statements",
constitute "forward-looking information" under the provisions of Canadian provincial securities laws and constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the United States Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements relate to, among other things, the Company's plans, objectives, expectations, estimates, beliefs, strategies and intentions and can generally
be identified by the use of words such as "anticipate", "believe", "budget", "could", "estimate", "expect", "forecast", "intend", "likely", "may", "plan", "project", "schedule", "should", "target",
"will", "would" or other variations of these terms or similar words. Forward-looking statements in this report include, but are not limited to, the following:



iii

---





Forward-looking
statements are necessarily based upon a number of factors and assumptions that, while considered reasonable by Agnico Eagle as of the date of such statements, are inherently subject to
significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies. The factors and assumptions of Agnico Eagle upon which the forward-looking statements in this AIF are based, and which
may prove to be incorrect, include, but are not limited to, the assumptions set out elsewhere in this AIF as well as: that there are no significant disruptions affecting Agnico Eagle's operations,
whether due to labour disruptions, supply disruptions, damage to equipment, natural or man-made occurrences, mining or milling issues, political changes, title issues or otherwise; that permitting,
development and expansion at each of Agnico Eagle's mines and mine development projects proceed on a basis consistent with current expectations, and that Agnico Eagle does not change its exploration
or development plans relating to such projects; that the exchange rates between the Canadian dollar, Euro, Mexican peso and the U.S. dollar will be approximately consistent with current levels
or as set out in this AIF; that prices for gold, silver, zinc and copper will be consistent with Agnico Eagle's expectations; that prices for key mining and construction supplies, including labour
costs, remain consistent with Agnico Eagle's current expectations; that production meets expectations; that Agnico Eagle's current estimates of mineral reserves, mineral resources, mineral grades and
mineral recoveries are accurate; that there are no material delays in the timing for completion of development projects; and that there are no material variations in the current tax and regulatory
environment that affect Agnico Eagle.

The
forward-looking statements in this AIF reflect the Company's views as at the date of this AIF and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which could cause the actual
results, performance or achievements of the Company or industry results to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking
statements. Such factors include, among others, the risk factors set out in "Risk Factors" below. Given these uncertainties, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking
statements, which speak only as of the date made. Except as otherwise required by law, the Company expressly disclaims any obligation or undertaking to release publicly any updates or revisions to any
such statements to reflect any change in the Company's expectations or any change in events, conditions or circumstances on which any such statement is based. This AIF contains information regarding
estimated total cash costs per ounce, all-in sustaining costs and minesite costs per tonne in respect of the Company or at certain of the Company's mines and mine development projects. The Company
believes that these generally accepted industry measures are realistic indicators of operating performance and are useful in allowing year over year comparisons. Investors are cautioned that this
information may not be suitable for other purposes.

Meaning of "including" and "such as":When used in this AIF, the terms "including" and "such as" mean including and
such as, without limitation.

Presentation of Financial Information

International Financial Reporting Standards:The Company reports its financial results using International
Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"). The Company adopted IFRS as its basis of accounting, replacing United States generally accepted accounting principles ("US GAAP") effective
July 1, 2014. As a result, Agnico Eagle's consolidated financial statements for 2014 are reported in accordance with IFRS, with comparative information restated under IFRS and a transition date
of January 1, 2013. The Company's transition to IFRS reporting had no significant impact on the design or effectiveness of the Company's internal controls over financial reporting. The Company
adopted IFRS as its basis of accounting to maintain comparability with other gold mining companies. Unless otherwise specified, all references to financial results herein are to those calculated
under IFRS.

Note to Investors Concerning Estimates of Mineral Reserves and Mineral Resources

The mineral reserve and mineral resource estimates contained in this AIF have been prepared in accordance with the Canadian securities regulatory authorities'
(the "CSA") National Instrument 43-101Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects("NI 43-101"). These standards are similar to
those used by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission's (the "SEC") Industry Guide No. 7, as interpreted by Staff at the SEC ("Guide 7"). However, the
definitions in NI 43-101 differ in certain respects from those under Guide 7. Accordingly, mineral reserve information contained or incorporated by reference herein may not be comparable
to similar information disclosed by U.S. companies. Under the requirements of the SEC, mineralization may not be classified as a "reserve" unless the determination has been made that the
mineralization could be economically and legally produced or extracted at the time the reserve determination is made. The SEC does not recognize measures of "mineral resource".

The
mineral reserve and mineral resource data presented herein are estimates, and no assurance can be given that the anticipated tonnages and grades will be achieved or that the indicated level of
recovery will be realized. The Company does not include equivalent gold ounces for byproduct metals contained in mineral reserves in its calculation of contained ounces.

Cautionary Note to Investors Concerning Estimates of Measured and Indicated Mineral Resources

This document uses the terms "measured mineral resources" and "indicated mineral resources". Investors are advised that while those terms are recognized and required by
Canadian regulations, the SEC does not recognize
them.Investors are cautioned not to assume that any part or all of mineral deposits in these categories will ever be converted into mineral reserves.

Cautionary Note to Investors Concerning Estimates of Inferred Mineral Resources

This document uses the term "inferred mineral resources". Investors are advised that while this term is recognized and required by Canadian regulations, the SEC does not
recognize it. "Inferred mineral resources" have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence and as to their economic and legal feasibility. It cannot be assumed that any part or all of an
inferred mineral resource will ever be upgraded to a higher category. Under Canadian regulations, estimates of inferred mineral resources may not form the basis of feasibility or pre-feasibility
studies, except in rare cases.Investors are cautioned not to assume that any part or all of an inferred mineral resource exists, or is economically or legally
mineable.

Note to Investors Concerning Certain Measures of Performance

This AIF presents certain measures, including "total cash costs per ounce", "all-in sustaining costs" and "minesite costs per tonne" that are not recognized
measures under IFRS. This data may not be comparable to data presented by other gold producers. For a reconciliation of these measures to the most directly comparable financial information presented
in the consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS, see the Company's management's discussion and analysis for the period ended December 31, 2014 (the "Annual
MD&A"). The Company believes that these generally accepted industry measures are realistic indicators of operating performance and are useful in allowing year over year comparisons. However, these
non-GAAP measures should be considered together with other data prepared in accordance with IFRS, and these measures, taken by themselves, are not necessarily indicative of operating costs or cash
flow measures prepared in accordance with IFRS. This AIF also contains information as to estimated future total cash costs per ounce, all-in sustaining costs and minesite costs per tonne. The
estimates of total cash costs per ounce, all-in sustaining costs and minesite costs per tonne are based upon the total cash costs per ounce, all-in sustaining costs and minesite costs per tonne that
the Company expects to incur to mine gold at its mines and projects and, consistent with the reconciliation of these actual costs referred to above, do not include production costs attributable to
accretion expense and other asset retirement costs, which will vary over time as each project is developed and mined. It is therefore not practicable to reconcile these forward-looking non-GAAP
financial measures to the most comparable IFRS measure.

|"feasibility study"       |  | A comprehensive technical and economic study of the selected development option for a mineral project that includes appropriately detailed assessments of realistically assumed mining, processing, metallurgical, economic, marketing, legal,
environmental, social and governmental considerations, together with any other relevant operational factors and a detailed financial analysis, that are necessary to demonstrate at the time of reporting that extraction is reasonably justified
(economically mineable). The results of the study may reasonably serve as the basis for a final decision by a proponent or financial institution to proceed with, or finance, the development of the project. The confidence level of the study will be

|"indicated mineral resource" |  | That part of a mineral resource for which quantity, grade or quality, densities, shape and physical characteristics can be estimated with a level of confidence sufficient to allow the appropriate application of technical and economic parameters to
support mine planning and evaluation of the economic viability of the deposit. The estimate is based on detailed and reliable exploration and testing information gathered through appropriate techniques from locations such as outcrops, trenches, pits,
workings and drill holes that are spaced closely enough for geological and grade continuity to be reasonably assumed. |

|"measured mineral resource"  |  | That part of a mineral resource for which quantity, grade or quality, densities, shape and physical characteristics are so well established that they can be estimated with confidence sufficient to allow the appropriate application of technical and
economic parameters to support production planning and evaluation of the economic viability of the deposit. The estimate is based on detailed and reliable exploration, sampling and testing information gathered through appropriate techniques from
locations such as outcrops, trenches, pits, workings and drill holes that are spaced closely enough to confirm both geological and grade continuity.                        |

DESCRIPTION OF THE BUSINESS

The Company is an established Canadian-based international gold producer with mining operations in northwestern Quebec, northern Mexico, northern Finland and
Nunavut and exploration activities in Canada, Europe, Latin America and the United States. The Company's operating history includes over three decades of continuous gold production, primarily
from underground operations. Since its formation on June 1, 1972, the Company has produced approximately 11.0 million ounces of gold.

The
Company's strategy is to focus on the continued exploration, development and expansion of its properties, all of which are located in politically stable jurisdictions. The Company has spent
approximately $3.2 billion on mine development over the last six years. Through this development program, the Company transformed itself from a regionally focused, single mine producer to a
multi-mine international gold producer with seven operating, 100% owned mines, one operating 50% owned mine, and one advanced exploration project.

The
following table sets out the date of acquisition, the date of commencement of construction and the date of achieving commercial production for the Company's mines.

Notes:

Since 1988, the LaRonde mine, in the Abitibi region of Quebec, has been the Company's flagship operation, producing approximately 4.9 million ounces of
gold as well as valuable byproducts. The Lapa mine, one of the Company's highest grade metals mines, is 11 kilometres east of the LaRonde mine, and the Goldex mine, which achieved commercial
production from the M and E Zones in October 2013, is 60 kilometres east of the LaRonde mine. The synergies between these sites contribute to the Company's efforts to reduce costs. The
Company's 50% owned Canadian Malartic mine, in Quebec, was acquired in June, 2014. The Kittila mine in Finland, which achieved commercial production in May 2009, has a long reserve life and has
significant production expansion potential. The Company's Meadowbank mine in Nunavut achieved commercial production in March 2010 and is expected to produce the most gold (approximately
400,000 ounces) of any of the Company's mines in 2015. The Pinos Altos mine, in Mexico, achieved commercial production in November 2009 and also has significant production expansion
potential and the La India mine, also in Mexico, achieved commercial production in February 2014. In addition, the Company plans to pursue opportunities for growth in gold production and
gold reserves through the prudent acquisition or development of exploration properties, development properties, producing properties and other mining businesses in the Americas and Europe.

In
2014, the Company produced 1,429,288 ounces of gold at total cash costs per ounce of $637 on a by-product basis and at all-in sustaining costs per ounce of $954 on a by-product basis. For
2015, the Company expects to produce approximately 1.6 million ounces of gold at a total cash costs per ounce of gold on a by-product basis between $610 and $630 and at all-in sustaining costs
per ounce between $880 and $900 on a by-product basis. The expected decrease in total cash costs per ounce of gold produced on a by-product basis in 2015 compared with 2014 is due primarily to
increased production. See "Introductory Notes  Note to Investors Concerning Certain Measures of Performance" for a discussion of the use of the non-GAAP measure

Company
has traditionally sold all of its production at the spot price of gold due to its general policy not to sell forward its future gold production.

Based
on the recommendations of the World Gold Council made in 2013, the Company has modified its calculation of all-in sustaining costs per ounce of gold produced for 2014. All-in sustaining costs
per ounce of gold produced is presented on both a by-product basis (deducting by-product metal revenues from production costs) and co-product basis (before by-product metal revenues). All-in
sustaining costs per ounce of gold produced on a by-product basis is calculated as the aggregate of total cash costs per ounce of gold produced on a by-product basis and sustaining capital
expenditures (including capitalized exploration), general and administrative expenses (including stock options) and non-cash reclamation provision expense per ounce of gold produced. All-in sustaining
costs per ounce of gold produced on a co-product basis is calculated in the same manner as all-in sustaining costs per ounce of gold produced on a by-product basis except that no adjustment for
by-product metal revenues is made to total cash costs per ounce of gold produced. The calculation of all-in sustaining costs per ounce of gold produced on a co-product basis does not reflect a
reduction in production costs or smelting, refining and marketing charges associated with the production and sale of by-product metals.

Prior
to modifying its calculation of all-in sustaining costs per ounce of gold produced for 2014 based on the recommendations of the World Gold Council, the Company calculated all-in sustaining costs
per ounce of gold produced on a by-product basis as the aggregate of total cash costs per ounce of gold produced on a by-product basis and sustaining capital expenditures, general and administrative
expenses (net of stock options) and exploration and corporate development expenses (excluding greenfield exploration) per ounce of gold produced. All-in sustaining costs per ounce of gold
produced on a co-product basis would have been calculated in the same manner as all-in sustaining costs per ounce of gold produced on a by-product basis except that no adjustment for by-product metal
revenues, net of smelting, refining and marketing charges would have been made to total cash costs per ounce of gold produced.

All-in
sustaining costs is a non-IFRS measure and is used to show the full cost of gold production from current operations. The Company's methodology for calculating all-in sustaining costs may not be
similar to the methodology used by other producers that disclose all-in sustaining costs. The Company may change the methodology it uses to calculate all-in sustaining costs in the future, including
in response to the adoption of formal industry guidance regarding this measure by the World Gold Council.

GENERAL DEVELOPMENT OF THE BUSINESS

Three-Year History

2012

In 2012, a 750 tonne per day expansion to the mill facilities at the Kittila mine was approved. The Kittila mine's mill expansion project was completed ahead of schedule
in 2014 and production is expected to increase and unit costs are expected to decrease as throughput ramps up to design capacity of 4,000 tonnes per day. Total capital expenditures on the
Kittila mine throughput expansion project were $103.0 million.

On
June 26, 2012, the Company entered into a letter of credit facility with The Bank of Nova Scotia, as lender, providing for a C$150 million uncommitted letter of credit facility which
was increased to C$175 million in 2013. In 2014, the Company and the lender under the letter of credit facility agreed that the Company would be permitted to draw up to C$185 million on
the facility.

On
July 24, 2012, the Company issued by way of private placement $200 million aggregate principal amount of guaranteed senior unsecured notes consisting of $100 million 4.87%
Series A senior notes due 2022 and $100 million 5.02% Series B senior notes due 2024.

In
2012, exploration drilling was conducted on several mineralized zones on the Goldex mine property near the GEZ. A team of independent consultants and Company staff performed a review, including a
preliminary economic assessment, to determine whether future mining operations on the property, including the M and E Zones, would be viable. In July 2012, after a review of the assessment,
Agnico Eagle's board of directors (the "Board" or the "Board of Directors") approved the M and E Zones for development.

Capital
expenditures by the Company in 2012 were $445.6 million. This included $75.2 million at the LaRonde mine, $18.5 million at the Lapa mine, $26.8 million at the
Goldex mine, $60.0 million at the Kittila mine, $105.1 million at the Meadowbank mine, $30.0 million at the Pinos Altos mine (which included approximately $5.8 million
related to the Creston Mascota deposit at Pinos Altos), $39.2 million at the La India project, $83.3 million at the Meliadine project and $7.5 million at other properties.
In addition, the Company incurred $5.0 million of expenditures on mine site exploration

and
$104.5 million on exploration activities at the Company's exploration properties and on corporate development activities.

2013

On May 16, 2013, the Company completed its acquisition of all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Urastar Gold Corp. ("Urastar"), a Canadian based natural
resource company listed on the TSX Venture Exchange, pursuant to a court-approved plan of arrangement under theBusiness Corporations Act(British
Columbia). Urastar holds a 100% interest in certain mining properties in Sonora, Mexico. Under the terms of the arrangement, each shareholder of Urastar received C$0.25 per common share and holders of
unexercised in-the-money warrants of Urastar received C$0.15 per warrant, for aggregate cash consideration of $10.1 million. Urastar is now a wholly-owned subsidiary of Agnico Eagle.

In
September 2013, pre-production commissioning activities commenced at the La India mine.

On
October 1, 2013, commercial production was achieved at the Goldex mine's M and E Zones.

In addition, the Company incurred $4.9 million of expenditures on mine site exploration and $39.3 million on exploration activities at the Company's exploration properties and on
corporate development activities.

2014

On February 1, 2014, commercial production was achieved at the La India mine.

On
June 16, 2014, the Company and Yamana Gold Inc. ("Yamana") jointly acquired 100% of the outstanding shares of Osisko Mining Corporation ("Osisko") pursuant to a court-approved plan of
arrangement under theCanada
Business Corporations Act(the "Arrangement") for approximately C$3.9 billion consisting of approximately C$1.0 billion in cash and a combination of common
shares of the Company, common shares of Yamana and shares of a new company that was spun-off under the Arrangement. Under the Arrangement, each Osisko share was exchanged for: (i) C$2.09 in
cash (C$1.045 per share from each of the Company and Yamana); (ii) 0.07264 of a common share of the Company; (iii) 0.26471 of a common share of Yamana; and (iv) 0.1 of one common
share of Osisko Gold Royalties Ltd ("New Osisko"), the newly formed spun-off company that commenced trading on the Toronto Stock Exchange (the "TSX") immediately following the
Arrangement.

In
connection with the Arrangement, substantially all of the assets and obligations relating to the Canadian Malartic mine in Quebec were transferred to Canadian Malartic GP, a newly formed
general partnership in which the Company and Yamana each own an indirect 50% interest (the "Partnership"). The Company and Yamana formed a joint management committee to operate the Canadian
Malartic mine. On June 17, 2014, Osisko and the acquisition corporation formed by the Company and Yamana to acquire Osisko amalgamated to form "Canadian Malartic Corporation" in which Agnico
and Yamana each hold an indirect 50% interest. Canadian Malartic Corporation continues to hold, among other things, Osisko's Kirkland Lake, Hammond Reef, Pandora and Wood-Pandora (50% interest) assets
and properties. The Company and Yamana will jointly explore and potentially develop the Kirkland Lake assets, and continue exploration at the Hammond Reef project and the Pandora and Wood-Pandora
properties through Canadian Malartic Corporation.

Pursuant
to the Arrangement, the following assets of Osisko were transferred to New Osisko: (i) a 5.0% net smelter royalty on the Canadian Malartic mine;
(ii) C$157.0 million in cash; (iii) a 2.0% net smelter royalty on the Kirkland Lake assets, the Hammond Reef project, and certain other exploration properties retained by Canadian
Malartic Corporation; (iv) all assets and liabilities of Osisko relating to the Guerrero camp in Mexico; and (v) certain other investments and assets.

The
Company's and Yamana's relationship with respect to the Canadian Malartic mine is governed by a unanimous shareholders agreement with respect to Canadian Malartic Corporation and a general
partnership agreement with respect to the Partnership.

Direct
transaction costs totaling C$16.7 million were included in the cost of the investment in Osisko. The Company's share of Osisko's June 16, 2014 purchase price was comprised of
33,923,212 of the Company's common shares issued to former holders of Osisko shares, C$502,059,784.01 in cash and 871,680 of the Company's common shares issued and held by the depositary in respect of
unsecured convertible debentures previously issued by Osisko that remained outstanding following the Arrangement. On conversion, holders of the outstanding unsecured convertible debentures are

entitled,
per Osisko share otherwise issuable, to the same per share consideration as received by former Osisko shareholders under the Arrangement.

A
business acquisition report in respect of the Arrangement was filed by the Company on SEDAR on August 22, 2014.

On
November 28, 2014, the Company completed its acquisition of all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Cayden Resources Inc. ("Cayden"), a Canadian based natural resource
company listed on the TSX Venture
Exchange, pursuant to a court-approved plan of arrangement under theBusiness Corporations Act(British Columbia). Cayden indirectly holds a 100%
interest, or an option to earn a 100% interest, in certain mining properties in Jalisco and Guerrero, Mexico, including the El Barqueno property. Under the terms of the arrangement, each
shareholder of Cayden received 0.09 of a common share of the Company and C$0.01 in cash. Cayden is now a wholly-owned subsidiary of Agnico Eagle.

Capital
expenditures by the Company in 2014 were $475.4 million. This included $76.6 million at the LaRonde mine, $20.2 million at the Lapa mine, $34.3 million at the
Goldex mine, $36.1 million at the Canadian Malartic mine, $106.2 million at the Kittila mine, $48.4 million at the Pinos Altos mine, $10.9 million related at the Creston
Mascota deposit at Pinos Altos, $22.7 million at the La India mine, $65.9 million at the Meadowbank mine, $48.3 million at the Meliadine project and $5.9 million at
other properties. In addition, the Company incurred $25.9 million of expenditures on mine site exploration and $56.0 million on exploration activities at the Company's exploration
properties and on corporate development activities.

2015

On February 23, 2015, Agnico Eagle entered into a binding letter of intent (the "LOI") with Canadian Malartic GP, Yamana and Abitibi Royalties Inc.
("Abitibi Royalties") regarding the Malartic CHL prospect which abuts the Canadian Malartic mine and in which Canadian Malartic Corporation held a 70% interest, with the remaining 30% interest held by
Abitibi Royalties. On March 19, 2015, Abitibi Royalties sold its 30% interest in the Malartic CHL prospect to the purchasers (the "CHL Transaction") in exchange for 459,197 common
shares of the Company and 3,549,685 Yamana common shares, for total consideration of C$35 million (based on the respective closing prices of such shares on the TSX on February 20,
2015, the date immediately prior to the public announcement by Abitibi Royalties of entering into the LOI), and 3% net smelter return royalties to Abitibi Royalties and New Osisko on the
prospect. In addition, as part of the CHL Transaction all prior agreements, claims and proceedings relating to the Malartic CHL prospect, including those previously instituted by Abitibi
Royalties against Osisko prior to the Company and Yamana completing the Arrangement were terminated, settled and released.

Prior
to completion of the Arrangement of Osisko, on June 6, 2014, Clifton Star Resources Inc. ("Clifton") instituted proceedings against Osisko (now Canadian Malartic
Corporation) seeking, among other things, an order that Osisko pay Clifton C$22.5 million in damages. In the proceedings, Clifton alleged, among other things, that Osisko was obligated to lend
Clifton C$22.5 million on or around December 1, 2012 pursuant to a December 10, 2009 commitment letter and a December 10, 2009 Duparquet Mining Camp Option and Joint
Venture Agreement, each between Clifton and Osisko, and that Osisko's failure to advance such loan resulted in damages to Clifton. Clifton further alleged that such loan was intended to be used to
make payments under certain option agreements between Clifton and third parties which entitled Clifton to acquire shares of such third parties that owned interests in the concessions comprising the
"Duparquet Project". Following the joint acquisition of Osisko by the Company and Yamana on June 16, 2014, the Company and Yamana engaged in discussions with Clifton to advance the settlement
of such claims. Effective March 2, 2015, Canadian Malartic Corporation (as the successor to Osisko) entered into a settlement agreement with Clifton, pursuant to which Canadian Malartic
Corporation paid Clifton approximately C$5.27 million in consideration for a full and final release of all claims arising from the facts described in the Clifton proceedings, the whole without
any admission of liability. Concurrently, under two separate non-brokered private placements, each of the Company and Yamana subscribed for 4,772,786 common shares of Clifton at a price of
C$0.60 per share, for total proceeds to Clifton of approximately C$5.73 million. As a result of the closing of the private placement, the Company now holds 4,772,786 common shares of
Clifton representing, as of March 2, 2015, approximately 9.9% of the issued and outstanding Clifton shares.

Pre-2012

In the second quarter of 2004, the Company acquired an approximate 14% ownership interest in Riddarhyttan Resources AB ("Riddarhyttan"), a Swedish precious and base metals
exploration and development company that was at the time listed on the Stockholm Stock Exchange. In November 2005, the Company completed a tender offer (the "Riddarhyttan Offer") for all
of the issued and outstanding shares of Riddarhyttan that it did not own. The Company issued 10,023,882 of its common shares and paid and committed an aggregate of $5.1 million cash as
consideration to Riddarhyttan shareholders in connection with the Riddarhyttan Offer. On March 28, 2011, Riddarhyttan was merged with Agnico Eagle

and Agnico Eagle Sweden AB, with Agnico Eagle Sweden AB as the continuing entity. The Kittila mine is currently 100% owned by Agnico Eagle Finland Oy, which is wholly-owned by Agnico Eagle
Sweden AB.

In
the first quarter of 2005, the Company entered into an exploration and option agreement with Industrias Penoles S.A. de C.V. ("Penoles") to acquire the Pinos Altos property in northern
Mexico. The Pinos Altos property is comprised of approximately 11,000 hectares in the Sierra Madre gold belt, approximately 225 kilometres west of the city of Chihuahua in the state of
Chihuahua in northern Mexico. In February 2006, the Company exercised its option and acquired the Pinos Altos property on March 15, 2006. Under the terms of the exploration and option
agreement, the purchase price of $66.8 million was comprised of $32.5 million in cash and 2,063,635 common shares of the Company.

In
February 2007, the Company made an exchange offer for all of the outstanding shares of Cumberland Resources Ltd. ("Cumberland") not already owned by the Company. At the time,
Cumberland was a pre-production development stage company listed on the TSX and American Stock Exchange whose primary asset was the Meadowbank property. In May 2007, the Company acquired
approximately 92% of the issued and outstanding shares of Cumberland that it did not previously own and, in July 2007, the Company completed the acquisition of all Cumberland shares by way of a
compulsory acquisition. The Company issued 13,768,510 of its common shares and paid $9.6 million in cash as consideration to Cumberland shareholders in connection with its acquisition
of Cumberland.

In
April 2010, the Company entered into an agreement in principle with Comaplex Minerals Corp. ("Comaplex") to acquire all of the outstanding shares of Comaplex that it did not already own. At
the time, Comaplex owned a 100% interest in the advanced stage Meliadine gold property, which is located approximately 300 kilometres southeast of the Company's Meadowbank mine. In
May 2010, the Company executed the definitive agreements with Comaplex and, in July 2010 by plan of arrangement, the Company acquired 100% of the Meliadine gold property through the
acquisition of Comaplex, which was renamed Meliadine Holdings Inc. Pursuant to the arrangement, Comaplex transferred to Geomark Exploration Ltd. all assets and related liabilities other
than those relating to the Meliadine project. In connection with the arrangement, the Company issued 10,210,848 of its common shares as consideration to Comaplex shareholders.

In
September 2011, the Company entered into an acquisition agreement with Grayd Resource Corporation ("Grayd"), a Canadian-based natural resource company listed on the TSX Venture Exchange,
pursuant to which the Company agreed to make an offer to acquire all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Grayd. At the time, Grayd held a 100% interest in the La India property
located in the Mulatos Gold Belt of Sonora, Mexico and had recently discovered the Tarachi gold porphyry prospect located approximately ten kilometres north of the La India property. In
October 2011, the Company made the offer by way of a take-over bid circular, as amended and supplemented, and, in November 2011, acquired approximately 95% of the outstanding common
shares of Grayd. In January 2012, the Company completed a compulsory acquisition of the remaining outstanding common shares of Grayd and Grayd became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.
In aggregate, the Company issued 1,319,418 of its common shares and paid C$179.7 million in cash as consideration to Grayd shareholders in connection with the transaction.

OPERATIONS AND PRODUCTION

Business Units and Foreign Operations

The Company operates through three business units: Northern Business, Southern Business and Exploration.

The
Company's Northern Business is comprised of the Company's operations in Canada and Finland. The Company's Canadian properties include the LaRonde mine, the Lapa mine, the Goldex mine, the
Meadowbank mine and the Meliadine project, each of which is held directly by the Company, and the 50% interest in the Canadian Malartic Mine, which is held indirectly through a wholly owned subsidiary
of the Company and Canadian Malartic Corporation. The Company's operations in Finland are conducted through its indirect subsidiary, Agnico Eagle Finland Oy, which owns the Kittila mine. In 2014, the
Northern Business accounted for approximately 79% of the Company's gold production. In 2015, the Company anticipates that the Northern Business will account for approximately 80% of the Company's gold
production.

The
Company's Southern Business is comprised of the Company's operations in Mexico. The Company's mining at Pinos Altos is conducted through its subsidiary, Agnico Eagle Mexico S.A. de C.V.,
which owns the Pinos Altos mine, including the Creston Mascota deposit. The La India mine is owned by the Company's indirect subsidiary, Agnico Sonora, S.A. de C.V. In 2014, the Southern
Business accounted for approximately 21% of the Company's gold production. In 2015, the Company anticipates that the Southern Business will account for approximately 20% of the Company's gold
production.

The
Company's Exploration group focuses primarily on the identification of new mineral reserves and resources and new development opportunities in politically stable and proven gold producing regions.
Current exploration activities are concentrated in Canada, Europe, Latin America and the United States. Several projects were evaluated during 2014 in other countries where the Company believes
the potential for gold occurrences is excellent and which the Company believes to be politically stable and supportive of the mining industry. The Company currently manages 72 properties in
Canada, five properties in the United States, three groups of properties in Finland, one property in Sweden and 12 properties in Mexico. Exploration activities are managed
from offices in Val d'Or, Quebec; Reno, Nevada; Chihuahua and Hermosillo, Mexico; Kittila, Finland; and Vancouver, British Columbia.

Northern Business

LaRonde Mine

The LaRonde mine is situated approximately halfway between the City of Rouyn-Noranda and the City of Val d'Or in northwestern Quebec (approximately 470 kilometres
northwest of Montreal, Quebec) in the municipalities of Preissac and Cadillac. At December 31, 2014, the LaRonde mine was estimated to have proven and probable mineral reserves containing
approximately 3.43 million ounces of gold comprised of 20.5 million tonnes of ore grading 5.20 grams per tonne. The Company's LaRonde mine consists of the LaRonde property and the
adjacent El Coco and Terrex properties, each of which is 100% owned and operated by the Company. The LaRonde mine can be accessed either from Val d'Or in the east or from Rouyn-Noranda in the
west, each of which are located approximately 60 kilometres from the LaRonde mine via Quebec provincial highway No. 117. The LaRonde mine is situated approximately two kilometres north
of highway No. 117 on Quebec regional highway No. 395. The Company has access to the Canadian National Railway at Cadillac, Quebec, approximately six kilometres from the
LaRonde mine.

The
Company first acquired an interest in the LaRonde property in 1974 through an indirect investment in Dumagami Mines Limited ("Dumagami"). The Company acquired 100% of the outstanding shares of
Dumagami on December 19, 1989, and on December 29, 1992, Dumagami transferred all of its property and assets, including the LaRonde mine, to the Company and subsequently dissolved.

The
LaRonde mine operates under mining leases obtained from the Ministry of Natural Resources (Quebec) and under certificates of approval granted by the Ministry of Sustainable Development,
Environment and the Fight Against Climate Change (Quebec). The LaRonde property consists of 36 contiguous mining claims and one provincial mining lease and covers in total
1,047.4 hectares. The El Coco property consists of 22 contiguous mining claims and one provincial mining lease and covers in total 356.7 hectares. The Terrex property
consists of 21 mining claims and one provincial mining lease that was acquired in July 2014. The Terrex property covers in total 424.4 hectares. The mining leases on the LaRonde
and El Coco properties expire in 2018 and 2021, respectively, and are automatically renewable for three further ten-year terms upon payment of a small fee. The Company also has three surface
rights leases that cover in total approximately 303.6 hectares that relate to the water pipeline right of way from Lake Preissac and the eastern extension of the LaRonde tailings pond
#7 on the El Coco property. The surface rights leases are renewable annually.

The
LaRonde mine includes underground operations at the LaRonde and El Coco properties that can both be accessed from the Penna Shaft, a mill, a treatment plant, a secondary crusher building
and related facilities. In 2003, exploration work started to extend outside of the LaRonde property onto the Terrex property where a down-plunge extension of Zone 20 North was
discovered. The Terrex property is subject to a 5% net profits royalty in favour of Delfer Gold Mines Inc. The Company does not expect to pay royalties in respect of this part of the property
in 2015. In addition, the Company owns 100% of the Sphinx property immediately to the east of the El Coco property. In 2014, 71% of the ore processed from the LaRonde mine was extracted from
the deeper portion of the LaRonde mine (that is, below Level 245) or the "LaRonde mine extension". In 2015, the Company anticipates that approximately 79% of the ore processed will be
from this deeper part of the mine.

The
Company expects future byproduct metal recoveries at the LaRonde mine to decline as production continues to shift towards deeper sections of the mine where gold grades are higher and byproduct
metals are less prevalent. The decreased byproduct revenues will result in higher total cash costs per ounce attributable to ore extracted from these parts of the mine.

The
Abitibi region has a continental climate with average annual rainfall of 64 centimetres and average annual snowfall of 318 centimetres. The average monthly temperatures range from a
minimum of minus 23 degrees Celsius in January to a maximum of 23 degrees Celsius in July. Under normal circumstances, mining operations are conducted year-round without interruption due
to weather conditions. The Company believes that the Abitibi region of northwestern Quebec has sufficient experienced mining personnel to staff its operations in the Abitibi region. The elevation is
337 metres above sea level. The LaRonde property is relatively flat with a maximum relief of
approximately 40 metres. The topography gently slopes down from north to south and is characterized by boreal-type forest at LaRonde and the nearby properties. All of the LaRonde mine's power
requirements are supplied by Hydro-Quebec through connections to its main power transmission grid. Water used in the LaRonde mine's operations is sourced from Lake Preissac and is transported
approximately four kilometres to the minesite through a surface pipeline.

Mining and Milling Facilities

Surface Plan of the LaRonde Mine (as at December 31, 2014)

GRAPHIC

The
LaRonde mine was originally developed utilizing a 1,207-metre shaft (Shaft #1) and an underground ramp access system. The ramp access system is available down to Level 25 of Shaft #1 and
continues down to Level 293 at the Penna Shaft. The mineral reserve accessible from Shaft #1 was depleted in September 2000 and Shaft #1 is no longer in use. A second
production shaft (Shaft #2), located approximately 1.2 kilometres to the east of Shaft #1, was completed in 1994 to a depth of 525 metres and was used to mine Zones 6 and 7. Both
ore zones were depleted in March 2000 and the workings were allowed to flood up to Level 6 (approximately 280 metres). A third shaft (the Penna Shaft), located
approximately 800 metres to the east of Shaft #1, was completed down to a depth of 2,250 metres in March 2000. The Penna Shaft is used to mine Zones 20 North,
20 South, 6 and 7.

In
2006, the Company initiated construction of the LaRonde mine extension. Hoisting from this deeper part of the LaRonde mine began in the fourth quarter of 2011 and commercial production was achieved
in November 2011. Access to the deeper part of the LaRonde mine is provided through a 823 metre internal shaft (completed in November 2009) starting from Level 203, for a
total depth of 2,858 metres below the surface. A ramp is used to access the lower part of the orebody down to 3,110 metres below the surface. An internal winze system is used to hoist
ore from depth to facilities on Level 215, approximately 2,150 metres below the surface, where it is transferred to the Penna Shaft hoist.

Production
from the LaRonde mine extension continues to move towards anticipated steady-state levels. As a result, logistical problems, such as congestion in the underground workings, occur from time
to time. The Company anticipates that these issues, and any other issues that may prevent or delay extraction and transportation of ore from a particular stope, will be less prevalent when the stope
development work at depth is more advanced.

           ANNUAL INFORMATION FORM

The
new cooling plant on Level 262 began operating in December 2013, and other components of the ventilation system were commissioned in 2014. The new system reduces the frequency of
heat related delays experienced in prior years in the deepest part of the mine. The ventilation network is expected to continue to expand over the next few years to increase the air flow in the deeper
areas of the mine.

In
2014, the Company began the installation of a coarse ore conveyor system that will extend from Level 293 to the crusher on Level 280. The new conveyor system, which is expected
to be operational in the second half of 2015, is expected to reduce congestion in the deeper portions of the mine and increase the capacity to move material.

Mining Methods

The primary source of ore at the LaRonde mine continues to be from underground mining methods. During 2014, two mining methods were used: longitudinal retreat with cemented
rock backfill or paste backfill and transverse open stoping with cemented rock backfill, paste or unconsolidated backfill. In addition, to address concerns regarding the frequency and intensity of
seismic events encountered at the lower levels of the LaRonde mine, a hybrid of these two methods has been developed and used. In the underground mine, sublevels are driven at between 30-metre and
40-metre vertical intervals, depending on the depth. Stopes are undercut in 15-metre wide panels. In the longitudinal method, panels are mined in 15-metre sections and backfilled with 100% cemented
rock backfill or paste backfill. The paste backfill plant was completed in 2000 and is located on the surface at the processing facility. In the transverse open stoping method, approximately 50% of
the ore is mined in the first pass and filled with cemented rock backfill or paste backfill. On the second pass, the remainder of the ore is mined and filled with unconsolidated waste rock backfill or
cemented paste backfill.

The
throughput at LaRonde in 2014 averaged 6,244 tonnes per day (based on 334 working days due to the planned shutdown for the hoist drive (21 days) and ten days of unplanned
shutdown also related to the hoist drives) compared with 6,354 tonnes per day in 2013. The reduced throughput in 2014 was due to the lower specific gravity
of the material and the continuing transition to the lower mine, where factors such as heat, congestion, seismicity and lack of operational flexibility underground had a negative impact on the mine's
ability to provide the planned tonnage to the mill. In 2014, approximately 78% of the ore was extracted (mucked) from the LaRonde mine extension. In 2015, this proportion is estimated to
be 80%.

The
Company's operations at the LaRonde mine reach more than three kilometres below the surface. There are very few resources available to model the geomechanical conditions at this depth, where
operations are subject to high stress levels. The Company conducts periodic technical reviews of its operations at these levels using consultants with experience in deep mining. The Company uses the
results of these technical reviews to adapt best mining practices for its operations at these levels.

Surface Facilities

Surface facilities at the LaRonde mine include a processing plant with a daily capacity of 7,200 tonnes of ore, which has been expanded four times since 1987 from the
original rate of 1,630 tonnes per day. Beginning in 1999, transition to the LaRonde mine's polymetallic massive sulphide orebody required several modifications to the processing plant. In 2008,
the installation of a limited copper/lead separation flotation circuit, following the copper flotation circuit, was completed. Also in 2008, a cyanidation plant began operation for the treatment of
sulphide concentrate from the Goldex mine. A CIL circuit was completed and began operation in April 2013 to replace the existing LaRonde precious metal Merrill-Crowe circuit. The LaRonde mine
is also the site for the Lapa mine ore processing plant (1,500 tonnes per day) that was commissioned in the second quarter of 2009.

The
ore requires a series of grinding, copper/lead flotation and separation, zinc flotation and zinc tails precious metals leaching circuits, now followed by CIL recovery. Paste backfill and cyanide
destruction plants operate intermittently. The tailings area has a dedicated cyanide destruction and metals precipitation plant that water passes through prior to recirculating to the mill. During the
summer of 2014, the installation of a new series of processing tanks began in order to increase the processing time. This installation is expected to be finished in March 2015 with the
replacement of the old series of tanks that have been in operation since 1993. A biological water treatment plant was commissioned in 2005 to address the build-up of thiocyanate in the tailings ponds
at the LaRonde mine. This build-up was the result of the high sulphide content of the LaRonde mine ore and high rate of recirculation of the process water. The plant uses bacteria to oxidize and
destroy thiocyanate in the water and removes phosphate prior to its release to the environment.

The
Goldex concentrate circuit consists of pulp received from the Goldex mill via truck and subsequent leaching of the pulp with cyanide. The leached material is sent to the Lapa CIL circuit for gold
recovery along with Lapa residual pulp. The

AGNICO EAGLE19ANNUAL INFORMATION FORM

Goldex
concentrate circuit ceased to operate in November 2011 following the suspension of mining operations at Goldex. In the fourth quarter of 2013, mining operation resumed in the M and
E Zones of the Goldex mine and the Goldex concentrate circuit resumed operation. Since May 2014, the Goldex concentrate has been processed in the Lapa CIL circuit.

The
Lapa mine ore processing plant consists of a two-stage grinding circuit to reduce the granularity of the ore. A gravity recovery circuit that is incorporated into the grinding circuit recovers up
to 45% of the available gold, depending on feed grades. The residual pulp is leached in a conventional CIL circuit to dissolve the balance of the precious metal. A carbon strip circuit recovers the
gold from the carbon which is recycled to the leach circuit.

Production and Mineral Recoveries

During 2014, the LaRonde mine had payable production of 204,652 ounces of gold, 1,274,339 ounces of silver, 10,514 tonnes of zinc and 4,996 tonnes
of copper from 2,085,346 tonnes of ore grading 3.24 grams of gold per tonne and 24.79 grams of silver per tonne, 0.73% zinc and 0.30% copper. The total cash costs per ounce of
gold produced on a by-product basis at LaRonde in 2014 was US$668 and on a co-product basis was US$1,055. The LaRonde processing facility averaged 5,713 tonnes of ore per day and operated
86.38% of available time. The minesite cost per tonne at LaRonde was C$99.63. Gold and silver recovery averaged 94.31% and 76.66%, respectively. Zinc recovery averaged 69.07% with a concentrate
quality of 53.45% zinc. Copper recovery averaged 79.00% with a concentrate quality of 19.93% copper.

Annual production at the LaRonde mine in 2015 is expected to be approximately 245,000 ounces of gold, 1,396,679 ounces of silver,
5,322 tonnes of copper and 7,612 tonnes of zinc from 2,245,000 tonnes of ore grading 3.65 grams per tonne gold, 25.2 grams per tonne silver, 0.30% copper and 0.51%
zinc. The total cash costs per ounce of gold produced in 2015 on a by-product basis are expected to be $576, with gold recovery estimated at 93.9%, silver recovery of 76.9%, copper recovery of 79.7%
and zinc recovery of 66.8%. Gold recovery at the LaRonde mine is distributed approximately as follows: 67.7% in the copper concentrate, 3.85% in the zinc concentrate and 22.79% via leaching. Minesite
costs per tonne of C$102 are expected in 2015.

Environmental Matters

Currently, water is treated at various facilities at the LaRonde mine. Water contained in the tailings that is to be used as underground backfill is treated to degrade cyanide
using a sulphur dioxide and air process. The tailings entering the tailings pond are first decanted and the clear water subjected to natural cyanide degradation. This water is then transferred to
polishing pond #1 to undergo a secondary treatment at a plant located between polishing ponds #1 and #2 that uses a peroxy silicate process to destroy cyanide, lime and coagulant (ferric
sulfate) to precipitate metals. The tailings pond occupies an area of about 175 hectares. Waste rock that is not used underground for backfill is brought up to the surface and stored in close
proximity to the tailings pond to be used to build cofferdams inside the pond to increase storage capacity. A waste rock pile containing approximately 300,000 tonnes of waste and occupying
about nine hectares is located north of the mill.

Due
to the high sulphur content of the LaRonde mine ore, the Company has had to address toxicity issues in the tailings ponds since the 1990s. The treatment process has been stable since introducing
and optimizing a biological treatment

plant
in 2004, and the effluent has remained non-toxic since 2006. In 2006, the Company commenced an ammonia stripping operation involving an effluent partially treated by the biological treatment
plant which allowed an increase in treatment flow rate, while keeping the final effluent toxicity-free. Since 2010, the Company has operated ammonia stripping towers to further increase the treatment
flow rate of the biological plant. In September 2014, the ammonia stripping plant was shut down for maintenance and will not be operated again due to the increase in treatment capacity of the
biological plant. In addition, water from acid rock drainage around the mills and the waste stockpile are treated to remove metals prior to discharge at a high density sludge lime treatment plant
located at the LaRonde mill.

In
2014, the first phase of the construction of a major cofferdam was completed to an elevation of 354 metres. The second phase will be completed in 2015 to increase the elevation to
356 metres.

The
LaRonde mine received an infraction notice in 2014 for a tailings line puncture that occurred in December 2013. The affected area was immediately cleaned up and no further action
is required.

Capital Expenditures

Capital expenditures at the LaRonde mine during 2014 were approximately $76.7 million, which included sustaining capital expenditures and deferred expense, but excluded
capitalized drilling. Budgeted 2015 capital expenditures at the LaRonde mine are C$80.1 million, excluding capitalized drilling.

Development

In 2014, a total of 12,614 metres of lateral development was completed. Development was focused on stope preparation of mining blocks for production in 2014 and 2015,
especially the preparation of the lower mine production horizon. A total of 7,766 metres of development work was completed for the LaRonde mine extension infrastructure and the ramp to access
the LaRonde mine extension.

A
total of 11,500 metres of lateral development is planned for 2015. The main focus of development work continues to be stope preparation and the LaRonde mine extension access toward
the orebody.

Geology, Mineralization and Exploration

Geology

The LaRonde property is located near the southern boundary of the Archean-age (2.7 billion years old) Abitibi Subprovince and the Pontiac Subprovince within the Superior
Geological Province of the Canadian Shield. The most important regional structure is the Cadillac-Larder Lake ("CLL") fault zone, marking the contact between the Abitibi and Pontiac
Subprovinces, located approximately two kilometres to the south of the LaRonde property.

The
geology that underlies the LaRonde mine consists of three east-west-trending, steeply south-dipping and generally south-facing regional groups of rock formations. From north to south, they are:
(i) 400 metres (approximate true thickness) of the Kewagama Group, which is made up of a thick band of interbedded wacke; (ii) 1,500 metres of the Blake River Group, a volcanic
assemblage that hosts all the known economic mineralization on the property; and (iii) 500 metres of the Cadillac Group, made up of a thick band of wacke interbedded with pelitic schist and
minor iron formation.

Zones
of strong sericite and chlorite alteration that enclose massive to disseminated sulphide mineralization (including the ore that is mined for gold, silver, zinc and copper at the LaRonde mine)
follow steeply dipping, east-west-trending, anastomosing shear zone structures within the Blake River Group volcanic units across the property. These shear zones are part of the larger Doyon-Dumagami
Structural Zone that hosts several important gold occurrences (including the Doyon gold mine, the Westwood project and the former Bousquet mines) and has been traced for over ten kilometres
within the Blake River Group, from the LaRonde mine westward to the Mouska gold mine.

Mineralization

The gold-bearing zones at the LaRonde mine are lenses of disseminated stringers through to massive aggregates of coarse pyrite with zinc, copper and silver content. Ten zones
that vary in size from 50,000 to 40,000,000 tonnes have been identified, of which four are (or are believed to be) economic. Gold content is not proportional to the total sulphide
content but does increase with copper content. Gold values are also higher in areas where the pyrite lenses are crosscut by tightly spaced north-south fractures.

These
historical relationships, which were noted at LaRonde Shaft #1's Main Zone, are maintained at the Penna Shaft zones. The zinc-silver
(i.e.Zone 20 North) mineralization with lower gold values, common in the upper mine, grades into

AGNICO EAGLE21ANNUAL INFORMATION FORM

---



gold-copper
mineralization within the lower mine. The predominant base metal sulphides within the LaRonde mine are chalcopyrite (copper) and sphalerite (zinc).

The
Company believes that Zone 20 North is one of the largest gold-bearing massive sulphide mineralized zones in the world and one of the largest known mineralized zones in the Abitibi
region of Ontario and Quebec. Zone 20 North contains the majority of the mineral reserves and resources at the LaRonde mine, including 20.0 million tonnes of proven and probable
mineral reserves grading 5.27 grams of gold per tonne, representing 97% of the total proven and probable mineral reserves at the LaRonde mine, 6.1 million tonnes of indicated mineral
resources grading 3.32 grams of gold per tonne, representing 90% of the total measured and indicated mineral resources at the LaRonde mine, and 7.4 million tonnes of inferred mineral
resources grading 4.47 grams of gold per tonne, representing 84% of the total inferred mineral resources at LaRonde.

Zone
20 North extends between 700 metres below the surface and at least 3,500 metres below the surface, and remains open at depth. With increased access on the lower levels of the
mine (i.e., below Level 215 and from the internal shaft on levels 257 and 278), the transformation from a zinc/silver
orebody to a gold/copper deposit is expected to continue during 2015.

Zone
20 North can be divided into an upper zinc/silver enriched gold poor zone and a lower gold/copper enriched zone. The zinc/silver zone has been traced over a vertical distance of
1,700 metres and a horizontal distance of 570 metres, with thicknesses approaching 40 metres. The gold/copper zone has been traced over a vertical distance of over
2,200 metres and a horizontal distance of 900 metres, with thicknesses varying from three to 40 metres. The zinc/silver zone consists of massive zinc/silver mineralization
containing 50% to 90% massive pyrite and 10% to 50% massive light brown sphalerite. The gold/copper zone mineralization consists of 30% to 70% finely disseminated to massive pyrite containing 1% to
10% chalcopyrite veinlets, minor disseminated sphalerite and rare specks of visible gold. Gold grades are generally related to the chalcopyrite or copper content. At depth, the massive sulphide lens
becomes richer in gold and copper. During 2014, 1.76 million tonnes of ore grading 3.32 grams of gold per tonne, 25.08 grams of silver per tonne, 0.67% zinc and 0.31% copper were
mined from Zone 20 North.

Exploration

The combined amount of gold in proven and probable mineral reserves at the LaRonde mine at the end of 2014 is 3.43 million ounces, which represents a decrease of 11.6%
as compared to the end of 2013. The reduction in reserves is principally associated with ore mined during 2014, changes in reserves parameters (mainly mining recovery factors used for the remaining
reserves) and 2014 delineation drilling done at the edges of the orebody. Underground indicated mineral resources at the LaRonde mine increased by 2.5 million tonnes grading 5.14 grams
of gold per tonne mainly because of positive diamond drilling results in the conversion drilling below the deeper level of mineral reserves (Level 311). That conversion of inferred resources to
indicated resources in Zone 20 North at depth led to a net loss of 1.7 million tonnes grading 6.50 grams of gold per tonne of inferred mineral resources.

Diamond
drilling is used for exploration on the LaRonde property. In 2014, 16 holes (7,976 metres) were drilled for definition (conversion) drilling and eight holes (2,612 metres)
were for exploration. Expenditures on diamond drilling at the LaRonde mine during 2014 were approximately C$1.4 million, including C$1.2 million in drilling expenses charged to capital
costs at the LaRonde mine, and C$0.2 million expensed as exploration drilling.

The
main focus of the 2014 exploration program was continuing the investigation and conversion of Zone 20 North at depth and exploration of the Zone 6 and 7 horizons
at depth from the new accesses developed in 2012 and 2013 on Levels 290, 292 and 293. The 2014 conversion program on Zone 20 North was focused on conversion from inferred
to indicated resources at depth in the eastern portion of the deposit (below the actual limit of mineral reserves). The positive results obtained in this program confirmed the extension of the orebody
to 3.3 kilometres below the surface, or 200 metres below the current maximum depth of mineral reserves. The conversion program will continue in 2015 through 2017, and will investigate
the orebody to 3.7 kilometres below the surface and to the west. The second portion of the 2014 exploration program consisted of a follow up campaign on the Zone 6 and 7 horizons
from the newly developed accesses on Level 293. In 2012, a deep hole from Level 215 intersected the Zone 6 horizon at a depth of 3,551 metres below the surface. The
22.8 metre thick massive sulphide zone had the same characteristics as other deposits on the property. In 2013, a first follow up campaign was planned from Level 278 to determine
the extent of the deposit but the campaign was stopped due to excessive deviation during the drilling of the first hole. The Company decided to delay the program until new accesses were developed from
the lower levels of the mine (Level 293) and the access on Level 293 was developed in 2014. The drilling campaign started in October 2014 and will continue into 2015 to
test the continuity of Zone 6 from 2.9 to 3.2 kilometres below the surface. Another drilling access is planned to be developed from 2015 through 2018 to provide better positioning
for an extensive diamond drilling program on Zone 6 to a depth of 3.7 kilometres.

In
2015, the Company expects to spend C$1.6 million on 14,400 metres of definition (conversion) drilling and C$1.9 million on 6,300 metres of exploration drilling, for a
total of C$3.5 million at the LaRonde mine.

Lapa Mine

The Lapa mine, which achieved commercial production in May 2009, is located approximately 11 kilometres east of the LaRonde mine near Cadillac, Quebec. At
December 31, 2014, the Lapa mine was estimated to contain proven and probable mineral reserves of 0.2 million ounces of gold comprised of 0.9 million tonnes of ore grading
5.9 grams per tonne. The Lapa property is made up of the Tonawanda property, which consists of 44 contiguous mining claims and one provincial mining lease covering an aggregate of
702.4 hectares, and the Zulapa property, which consists of one mining concession covering 93.5 hectares. The mining lease at Lapa expires in 2029.

Location Map of the Lapa Mine (as at December 31, 2014)

GRAPHIC

The
Company's initial interest in the Lapa property was acquired in 2002 through an option agreement with Breakwater Resources Ltd. ("Breakwater"). The Company undertook an aggressive
exploration program and discovered a new gold deposit almost 300 metres below the surface. In 2003, the Company purchased the Lapa property from Breakwater for a payment of $8.9 million,
a 1% net smelter return royalty on the Tonawanda property and a 0.5% net smelter return royalty on the Zulapa property. In 2008, the Company purchased all royalties from Breakwater for
C$6.35 million. In addition, both the Zulapa and Tonawanda properties are subject to a 5% net profit royalty payable to Alfer Inc. and René Amyot. In 2004, an additional
mining claim of 9.4 hectares was added to the Company's holdings at the Lapa mine. In January 2009, a mining lease covering 66.8 hectares was entered into with the Ministry of
Natural Resources (Quebec).

The
Lapa mine is accessible by Quebec provincial highway No. 117. The elevation varies between approximately 320 and 390 metres above sea level. All of the Lapa mine's power requirements
are supplied by Hydro-Quebec through connections to its main power transmission grid. All of the water required at the Lapa mine is sourced from the Heva River and is transported approximately
3.5 kilometres to the minesite through a surface pipeline. The water is pumped into an existing open pit near the property that has been allowed to flood and from which the mine is supplied.
The topography slopes relatively gently from north to south. The property is generally covered by a boreal-type forest consisting mainly of black spruce and white pine.

Mining and Milling Facilities

Surface Plan of the Lapa Mine (as at December 31, 2014)

GRAPHIC

The
Lapa property hosts an underground mining operation and the ore is trucked to a processing facility at the LaRonde mine, which has been modified to treat the ore, recover the gold and store the
residues. Tailings from the Lapa mine are deposited in the tailings pond at the LaRonde mine.

In
July 2004, the Company initiated the sinking of an 825-metre deep shaft at the Lapa property. In April 2006, 2,800 tonnes of development ore was extracted at Lapa and was
estimated to contain, on average, 10.65 grams of gold per tonne. These results and results from other sampling methods were incorporated into a feasibility study, and in June 2006, the
Company accelerated construction of the Lapa mine. This construction included extending the shaft to a depth of 1,369 metres, which was completed in October 2007. Significant additional
construction was required in order for the Lapa mine to achieve commercial production in May 2009, including the construction of the Lapa mine ore processing facility at the
LaRonde mine.

Mining Methods

Two underground mining methods are used at the Lapa mine: longitudinal retreat with cemented backfill and locally transverse open stoping with cemented backfill. Sublevels are
driven at 30-metre vertical intervals. Stopes are mined in 12-metre sections and backfilled with 100% cemented rock backfill. The underground infrastructure at the Lapa mine is predominantly located
in areas with stable rock conditions. However, in certain areas, the underground infrastructure is located in a talc chlorite schist (mainly ore zones), which may have a higher potential of
instability. This risk of instability is managed at the Lapa mine through a ground control program. Excavated ore from the Lapa mine is trucked via provincial highway to the processing facility at the
LaRonde mine.

Surface Facilities

The infrastructure on the Lapa property includes the refurbished former LaRonde Shaft #1 headframe and shafthouse, service buildings, offices, a settling pond for waste
water, dry facilities, an ore bin, a diesel reservoir and a water treatment plant. A backfill plant was commissioned in December 2008 and the sedimentation pond was extended in 2007 to control
suspended solids from underground dewatering discharge.

Ore
from the Lapa mine is processed in dedicated milling facilities integrated into the mill at the LaRonde mine. With an average production of 1,750 tonnes per day in 2014, the mine operated
consistently above its design rate of 1,500 tonnes per day. Dilution, mainly associated with talc chlorite schist from the south wall, averaged 72% in 2014, consistent with prior years.

Production and Mineral Recoveries

During 2014, the Lapa mine had payable production of 92,622 ounces of gold from 638,844 tonnes of ore grading 5.59 grams of gold per tonne. The total cash
costs at Lapa in 2014 per ounce of gold produced was $667 on a by-product basis and was $667 on a co-product basis and the Lapa processing facility averaged 1,750 tonnes per day and operated
approximately 97% of available time. Gold recovery averaged 80.9% and the minesite costs per tonne at Lapa were C$107 in 2014.

The
following table sets out the metal recoveries at the Lapa mine in 2014.

|     |  | Head
Grade |  | Overall
Metal
Recovery |  | Payable
Production | 
|---- |  | ---------- |  | ---------------------- |  | ------------------ | 
|     |  |           
|Gold |  | 5.59 g/t   |  | 80.9%                  |  | 92,622 oz          | 
|    

Gold production during 2015 at the Lapa mine is expected to be approximately 75,000 ounces from 584,000 tonnes of ore grading 5.17 grams of
gold per tonne at an estimated total cash costs per ounce of approximately $769 on a by-product basis, and estimated gold recovery of 77.5%. Minesite costs per tonne of approximately C$118 are
expected in 2015.

Environmental Matters

Water used underground at the Lapa mine was initially re-circulated from mine dewatering after settling in the sedimentation pond. The re-circulation led to ammonia
concentration in the water, and the Company experienced occasional toxicity problems in the water pond in 2008 and 2009. To address the ammonia content in the water, the Company built a 3.5-kilometre
surface pipeline to obtain fresh water from the Heva River. The pipeline was commissioned in November 2009. The Company also commissioned a water treatment plant on site in the fourth quarter
of 2010 to reduce the ammonia from mine dewatering. Output is currently within the target range at approximately ten parts per million of ammonia and average efficiency is at approximately 70%.

During
the first year of operation of the water treatment plant, the removal of suspended solids in the water coming from the underground operations was through a sedimentation process. The limited
capacity of the sedimentation pond limited the effectiveness of the system when there was a high variation in concentrations of suspended solids.
In the second quarter of 2012, an Oberlin filtration unit was installed inside the treatment plant to improve the removal of suspended solids from water coming from underground operations. Despite the
additional filtration, the process remains sensitive to variations in the concentrations of suspended solids and managing it requires particular attention. The waste rock pile naturally drains towards
the sedimentation pond. A waste rock sampling program implemented during the shaft sinking phase verified the non-acid generating nature of the waste rock. Water effluent from the sedimentation pond
is sampled as required under the Quebec mining effluent guidelines. The ore from the Lapa mine is transported and processed at the Lapa mill, which is located adjacent to the LaRonde mill. The Lapa
tailings are sent to the LaRonde mine tailings area.

The
Certificates of Authorization to proceed with mine production and with mill construction were issued by the Ministry of Sustainable Development, Environment and the Fight Against Climate Change
(Quebec) in October and December 2007, respectively. The Certificate of Authorization for mill and tailings production was received in 2008.

A
revision to the closure plan for the Lapa mine was submitted to the Ministry of Natural Resources (Quebec) in 2009 and was approved in 2012. Financial assurance has been provided based on the
closure plan.

Capital Expenditures

In 2014, the Company incurred approximately $20.2 million in capital expenditures at the Lapa mine, which included deferred development and sustaining capital
expenditures (including underground construction and mining equipment), but excluded capitalized drilling. Budgeted 2015 capital expenditures at the Lapa mine are C$6.3 million, which includes
deferred development and sustaining capital, but excludes capitalized drilling.

Development

In 2014, a total of 8,092 metres of lateral development was completed. Development focused on permanent drifts (ramps and haulage way), stope preparation of mining
blocks set for production from 2014 to 2016 and access to the satellite zones and the lower portions of the Contact Zone.

A
total of 3,715 metres of lateral development is planned for 2015. The main focus of development work continues to be stope preparation and access to the orebody.

Geology, Mineralization and Exploration

Geology

The Lapa property is located near the southern boundary of the Archean-age (2.7 billion years old) Abitibi Subprovince and the Pontiac Subprovince within the Superior
Province of the Canadian Shield. The most important regional structure is the CLL fault zone marking the contact between the Abitibi and Pontiac Subprovinces. The fault zone passes through the
property from west to east, and is marked by schists and mafic to ultramafic volcanic flows that comprise the Piché group (up to approximately 300 metres thick in the mine
area). On the Lapa property, the fault zone displays a "Z" shaped fold to which all of the lithologic groups in the region conform. Feldspathic dykes cut the Piché group, especially
near the fold. North of the Piché group lies the Cadillac sedimentary group, which consists of 500 metres or more of well-banded wacke, conglomerate and siltstone with
intercalations of iron formation. The Pontiac group sedimentary rocks (up to approximately 300 metres thick) that occur to the south of the Piché group are similar to the
Cadillac group but do not contain conglomerate nor iron formation.

Mineralization

All of the known gold mineralization along the CLL fault zone is epigenetic (late) vein type, controlled by the structure. The mineralization is associated with the fault zone
and occurs within or immediately adjacent to the Piché group rocks.

The
Lapa deposit is comprised of the Contact Zone and five satellite zones. The Contact Zone accounts for approximately 60% of the mineral reserves.

The
ore zones are made up of multiple quartz veins and veinlets, often smoky and anastomosing, within a sheared and altered envelope containing minor sulphides and visible gold. The Contact Zone is
generally located at the contact between the Piché group and the Cadillac group. The satellite zones are located within the Piché group at a distance varying from ten to
50 metres from the contact with the Cadillac group, except for the satellite zones 7 and 8 at 150 metres from this same contact, and the Contact North Zone, which is located
approximately ten metres north of the Contact Zone within the Cadillac group. The sheared envelope consists of millimetre-thick foliation bands of biotite or sericite with silica and, in places, cuts
across rock units. Quartz veins and millimetre-sized veinlets parallel to the foliation account for 5% to 25% of the mineralization. Visible gold is common in the veins and veinlets but can also be
found in the altered host rock. Sulphides account for 1% to 3% of the mineralization; the most common sulphides, in order of decreasing importance, are arsenopyrite, pyrite, pyrrhotite and stibnite.
Graphite is also rarely observed as inclusions in smoky quartz veins.

The
Contact and satellite zones are tabular mineralized envelopes oriented east-west and dipping very steeply to the north, turning south at depth. The economic portion of the zone has been traced
from depths of approximately 450 metres to more than 1,500 metres below the surface. The Contact Zone has an average strike length of
300 metres, varies in thickness from 2.8 to 5.0 metres and is open at depth. Locally, some thicker intervals have been intersected but their continuity has not been demonstrated. The
satellite zones have thicknesses similar to the Contact Zone.

Exploration

Overall, there was a reduction of approximately 112,000 ounces of gold in reserves at the Lapa mine in 2014 after mining 115,000 ounces of gold. The net reduction
was a result of gold production and delineation diamond drilling, offset by additional ounces from Zone 8. Underground indicated resources at the Lapa mine decreased by 0.3 million tonnes

grading
4.25 grams of gold per tonne mainly due to reclassification of several stopes in the top area of the mine. Approximately 0.1 million tonnes of inferred resources grading
11.96 grams of gold per tonne were added following underground drilling in 2014. Drilling and evaluation will continue in 2015.

In
2014, a total of 212 holes were drilled on the Lapa property for a total length of 39,004 metres. Of the drilling in 2014, 205 holes (34,923 metres) were for definition
(conversion) and seven holes (4,081 metres) were for exploration. Expenditure on diamond drilling at the Lapa mine during 2014 was approximately C$3.4 million, including
C$3.0 million in definition drilling expenses charged to capital costs and C$0.4 million expensed on exploration drilling.

Four
exploration diamond drilling programs were completed at the Lapa mine during 2014. The first program was to convert mineral resources into mineral reserves in Zulapa Zone 8. The second program
was executed from the exploration track drift on Level 101 (one kilometer below the surface) testing the eastern and western extension of the Contact Zone and the southern portion
of the Piché group volcanic rock. The third program was executed from the surface toward the east area of the Contact Zone and the Zulapa corridor. The fourth program
concentrated on expanding the Zulapa Zone 7 and the Contact East Zone at depth. Further drilling will be needed in 2015 to evaluate the economics of these areas. The 2015 program will
also test previous gold intersection, unexplored areas and the deep extension of the Contact Zone.

In
2015, the Company expects to spend approximately C$0.9 million on 9,500 metres of definition (conversion) drilling and approximately C$0.95 million on 10,000 metres of
exploration drilling, for a total of approximately C$1.85 million at the Lapa mine. A total of 3,715 metres of lateral development is planned for 2015. The main focus of development work
continues to be stope preparation and access to the orebody.

Goldex Mine

The Goldex mine is located in the City of Val d'Or, Quebec, approximately 60 kilometres east of the LaRonde mine. The proven and probable mineral reserves at Goldex as
at December 31, 2014 were approximately 0.3 million ounces of gold comprised of 7.1 million tonnes of ore grading 1.49 grams per tonne, all in the M and E Zones.

The
Goldex mine operates under a mining lease obtained from the Ministry of Natural Resources (Quebec) and under certificates of approval granted by the Ministry of Sustainable Development,
Environment and the Fight Against Climate Change (Quebec). The Goldex property consists of 22 contiguous mining claims and, since April 2006, one provincial mining lease
(98.6 hectares), covering an aggregate of 331.2 hectares. The property is made up of three blocks: the Probe block (130.7 hectares); the Dalton block (10.4 hectares); and
the Goldex Extension block (190.1 hectares). The claims are renewable every second year upon payment of a small fee. The mining lease expires in 2028 and is automatically renewable for three
further ten-year terms upon payment of a small fee. The Company also has one surface lease covering 418.5 hectares that is used for the auxiliary tailings pond. This lease is renewable annually

The
GEZ, which was the gold deposit on which the Company was focusing its production efforts before production was suspended indefinitely on October 19, 2011, was discovered in 1989 on the
Goldex Extension block (although the Company believes a small portion of the GEZ occurs on the Probe block). On November 29, 2012, the Company purchased the 5% net smelter return royalty
interest on the Probe block from Probe Mines Limited ("Probe") for cash consideration of C$14 million. An additional C$4 million (in cash or common shares of the Company, at the
election of Probe) is payable by the Company to Probe in 2015 as certain production thresholds were achieved on the Probe block in 2014.

Agnico
Eagle has held a 100% interest in the Goldex property since December 1993, when the Company acquired the remaining 46.3% interest in Goldex Mines Limited that it did not already own. In
late 1997, the Company completed a mining study that indicated that the GEZ deposit was not economically viable to mine at the then-prevailing gold price (approximately $323 per ounce of gold) using
the mining approach chosen and the drill-hole-indicated grade. The property was placed on care and maintenance and the workings were allowed to flood. In February 2005, a new mineral reserve
and resource estimate was completed for the GEZ which, coupled with a feasibility study, led to a probable mineral reserve estimate of 1.6 million ounces of gold contained in
20.1 million tonnes of ore grading 2.54 grams of gold per tonne. The GEZ resource model was revised and, in March 2005, the Company approved a feasibility study and the
construction of the Goldex mine. The mine achieved commercial production on August 1, 2008.

Based
on the results of a scoping study completed in July 2009, the Company decided to expand the mine and mill operations at Goldex to 8,000 tonnes per day. This project was completed
in 2010. Capital costs in connection with
the expansion totaled $10 million. The crusher for the expansion was commissioned at the end of the first quarter of 2010 at a rate of 7,811 tonnes per day.

On
October 19, 2011, the Company suspended mining operations and gold production from the GEZ, following the receipt of recommendations from independent consultants to halt underground mining
operations during the investigation into geotechnical concerns with the rock above the mining horizon. As a result, the Company wrote off substantially all of its investment in the Goldex mine
(approximately $254 million), recorded a closure provision of approximately $44 million and reclassified all of the remaining 1.6 million ounces of proven and probable gold
reserves, other than the ore stockpiled on the surface, as mineral resources in the third quarter of 2011. The surface stockpile was processed in the Goldex mill by October 30, 2011. Surface
remediation, in the form of cement injection and other corrective work to the mine's surface infrastructure (including to Shaft #2) was carried out in 2012 and 2013.

The
Company does not expect to produce more gold from the GEZ until the geotechnical concerns with the rock above the mining horizon are resolved, which may never occur.

In
July 2012, the Company approved the development of the M and E Zones of the Goldex mine. Production from these zones began in the fourth quarter of 2013 and commercial
production was achieved in October 2013. Development work is continuing underground on the M and E Zones. The Company anticipates that approximately 5,780 tonnes of ore per day
grading 1.58 grams per tonne (diluted) will be extracted and processed from the M and E Zones over the next three years.

In
2013, a feasibility study was carried out on the M2 and M5 Zones and the east part of the E Zone. This feasibility study indicated that mining these zones concurrently with the M and
E Zones appeared economical. Therefore, the mineral resources of these new satellite zones were added to the mineral reserves as of December 31, 2014. The Company anticipates that the
commencement of operations on these new satellite zones will result in increased daily throughput of the mine and mine life being extended further into 2017.

The
Goldex property is accessible by Quebec provincial highway No. 117. The elevation is approximately 302 metres above sea level. All of the Goldex mine's power requirements are
supplied by Hydro-Quebec through connections to its main power transmission grid. The potable water at the Goldex mine is sourced directly by aqueduct from the City of Val d'Or. Mine operations have
three main sources of water: underground dewatering water, the polishing pond of the auxiliary tailings pond and from the Thompson River, if needed. For additional information regarding the Abitibi
region in which the Goldex mine is located, including information with respect to climate, topography, vegetation and mining personnel, see " LaRonde Mine" above.

The
surface facilities at Goldex include a head frame, a hoist room, an ore storage facility, a processing plant, a paste backfill plant and a surface building containing a mechanical shop, a
warehouse and an office. In addition, the Goldex property has a 790-metre deep shaft (Shaft #1), which historically was used to provide access to underground workings. Shaft #1 is now
predominantly used for getting material into the mine and serves as an emergency exit from the mine.

The
sinking of a new production shaft was completed in 2007. This shaft (Shaft #2) is a 5.5-metre diameter shaft with a 50-centimetre thick concrete lining and is used for ventilation as well as
hoisting purposes. Shaft #2 is 865 metres deep and includes five stations. A refurbished friction hoist was installed for production and service duties, and an auxiliary hoist was
installed for emergency and personnel service. The production hoist is equipped with one cage skip. Each skip has a 21.5-tonne capacity and the shaft can hoist an average of 7,000 to
8,000 tonnes of ore per day.

Mining Method

The Company mines the M and E Zones using primary and secondary stope methods. Drilling is carried out with ITH drills. Production holes are either 4.5 or
6.5 inches in diameter. Bulk emulsion is used as the primary explosive for stope blasting. For both zones, stopes are approximately 55 metres high. The width and length of individual
stopes vary based on local rock mass quality, but an average stope is expected to range between 60,000 and 100,000 tonnes. Ore handling in the M Zone is done with 15 yard
load-haul-dump machines. This equipment unloads into an ore pass accessible from each level. In the E Zone, located below the bottom of Shaft #2, ore handling is done with 15 yard
load-haul-dump machines and 45 tonne trucks.

All
stopes are supported with 15 metre cable bolts. In addition, the stability of each stope is remotely monitored in real time. The Company also uses paste backfill to allow for a high
extraction ratio and to increase long term stability.

Surface Facilities

Plant construction at Goldex commenced in the second quarter of 2006 and was completed in the first quarter of 2008. The plant reached design capacity in the second quarter of
2009. Grinding at the Goldex mill was initially done through a two-stage circuit comprised of a SAG mill and a ball mill. In 2009, a surface crusher was added to reduce the size of ore transferred to
the surface from 150 millimetres to 50 millimetres. A lamellar decanter was also added to recover small particles present in the water overflow of the concentrate thickener. The
underflow pump for this thickener was upgraded following flotation circuit modification to increase the pull rate of the small particles. Approximately two-thirds of the gold is recovered through a
gravity circuit, passed over shaking tables and smelted on site. The remainder of the gold and pyrite is recovered through a flotation process. The concentrate is then thickened and trucked to the
mill at the LaRonde mine where it is further treated by cyanidation. Gold recovered is consolidated with precious metals from the LaRonde and Lapa mines.

In
2013, a new backfill plant was built on the site. The plant provides fill for the M and E Zone stopes. The tailing thickener underflow feeds the backfill plant, two disk filters increase the
density before the continuous mixer where cement is added at a ratio of approximately 5% and then sent to the underground mine with a positive displacement pump. The capacity of the backfill plant is
approximately 6,200 tonnes per day.

In
2013, metallurgical testing on ore from the M and E Zones showed that the cement in the backfill would have a negative impact on the efficiency of the flotation circuit. As a result, a pH
control (using carbon dioxide), a reservoir and control valves were added to the mill.

The
ore production rate at Goldex in 2014 averaged 5,799 tonnes per day compared with 5,343 tonnes per day in 2013. The increased throughput in 2014 was largely due to better than
expected underground mining rates.

Production and Mineral Recoveries

During 2014, the Goldex mine had payable production of 100,433 ounces of gold from 2.1 million tonnes of ore grading 1.60 grams of gold per tonne. The
total cash costs at Goldex in 2014 per ounce of gold produced was $638 on a by-product basis and $638 on a co-product basis. The Goldex processing facility averaged 5,799 tonnes of ore per day.
Gold recovery averaged 92.1%. The minesite costs per tonne at Goldex in 2014 were C$33.

|    

Gold production during 2015 at the Goldex mine is expected to be approximately 100,000 ounces from 2,190,000 tonnes of ore grading
1.55 grams of gold per tonne at an estimated total cash costs per ounce of approximately $618 on a by-product basis, with estimated gold recovery of 92.5%. Minesite costs per tonne of
approximately C$34 are expected in 2015.

Environmental Matters

Environmental permits for the construction and operation of an ore extracting infrastructure at the Goldex mine were received from the Ministry of Sustainable Development,
Environment and the Fight Against Climate Change (Quebec) in October 2005. The permits also covered the construction and operation of a sedimentation pond for mine water treatment and sewage
facilities. In June 2011, the permits were revised to allow for the expansion of the mine and mill operations to 9,500 tonnes per day. In June 2012, environmental permits were
received for the construction and operation of a paste backfill plant in connection with the development of the M and E Zones.

In
November 2006, the Company and the Quebec government signed an agreement permitting the Company to dispose Goldex tailings at the Manitou site, a tailings site formerly used by an unrelated
third party and abandoned to the Quebec government. The Manitou tailings site has issues relating to acid drainage, and the construction of tailings facilities by the Company and the deposit of
tailings from Goldex on the Manitou tailings site was accepted by the Ministry of Sustainable Development, Environment and the Fight Against Climate Change (Quebec) as a valid rehabilitation plan to
address the acid generation problem at Manitou. Under the agreement, the Company managed the construction and operation of the tailings facilities and the Quebec government paid all additional costs
above
the Company's budget for tailings facilities set out in the Goldex feasibility study. The Quebec government retains responsibility for all environmental contamination at the Manitou tailings site and
for final closure of the facilities. The Company has also built a separate tailings deposit area (auxiliary tailings pond) near the Goldex mine. Environmental permits for the construction and
operation of the auxiliary tailings pond were received in March 2007. The rehabilitation of the Manitou tailings site is expected to continue during the mining of the M and E Zones.

Internal
dykes were built in 2013 at the Manitou tailings site to make better use of the reduced quantity of available tailings for rehabilitation of the Manitou site. An infraction notice was
received from the Québec Ministry of Environment in February 2014 for an exceedance of the C10-C50 parameters in the effluent of the auxiliary pond, however, the effluent
was resampled and the effluent was compliant.

As
at December 31, 2014, the estimated remaining reclamation costs relating to the Goldex mine are approximately $11.6 million.

Capital Expenditures

Capital expenditures at the Goldex mine during 2014 were approximately $34.3 million, which included sustaining capital expenditures and deferred expenses, but excluded
capitalized drilling. Total estimated capital expenditures for 2015 are $30.0 million excluding capitalized drilling.

Development

During 2014, approximately 7,300 metres of lateral development were completed at the Goldex Mine. A total of 500 metres of vertical development was also completed
in order to establish both the ore pass system servicing the M Zone and the ventilation network servicing both the M and E Zones. A total of 2,990 metres of lateral
development is planned for both zones in 2015, while 515 metres of vertical development will be necessary to extend the ore pass system and to ensure proper ventilation of the M2 and
M5 Zones. Development is expected to continue, at a slower rate, through 2016.

Geology, Mineralization and Exploration

Geology

The Goldex property is located near the southern boundary of the Archean-age (2.7 billion years old) Abitibi Subprovince, a typical granite-greenstone terrane located
within the Superior Province of the Canadian Shield. The southern contact of the Abitibi Subprovince with the Pontiac Subprovince is marked by the east-southeast trending CLL fault zone, the most
important regional structural feature. The Goldex deposit is hosted within a quartz diorite sill, the "Goldex Granodiorite", located in a succession of mafic to ultramafic volcanic rocks that are all
generally oriented west-northwest.

The
GEZ extends from 500 to 800 metres below the surface and is entirely hosted by the Goldex Granodiorite. The limits of the zone are defined by the intensity of the quartz vein stockwork
envelope and by gold assays. The zone is almost egg-shaped; it is over 300 metres tall by 450 metres long (in a west-northwest direction) and its thickness increases rapidly from
25 metres along the east-west edges to almost 150 metres in the centre.

In
2014, exploration efforts at Goldex were focused on the M, E and Deep Zones. These zones are defined by quartz tourmaline veins and gold assays similar to the GEZ. The mineralization in the
M2 and M5 Zones is similar to the GEZ, although their continuity is more limited and there appears to be stacking of dislocated zones containing gold-bearing quartz tourmaline pyrite veins and
veinlets. The M Zone has been defined as having a length of 160 metres, a height of 120 metres and a thickness of 115 metres. The E Zone, adjacent to the eastern end of the
GEZ, has a length of 150 metres, a height of 150 metres and a thickness of 100 metres. The Deep Zone is approximately 150 metres below the GEZ and close to
1,500 metres below the surface. It appears to have an approximate length of 500 metres.

Mineralization

Gold mineralization at Goldex corresponds to a quartz-tourmaline vein deposit type. The Goldex gold-bearing quartz-tourmaline-pyrite veins and veinlets have strong structural
control. The most significant structure directly related to mineralization is a discrete shear zone, the Goldex Mylonite, that is up to five metres wide and occurs within the Goldex Granodiorite, just
south of the GEZ and north of the M Zone.

A
couple of vein sets exist within the GEZ, M, E, P and Deep Zones, of which the main set consists of extensional-shear veins dipping approximately 30 degrees south. The vein sets and
associated alteration halos combine to form stacked envelopes up to 30 metres thick.

Moderate
to strong albite-carbonate alteration of the host-rock quartz diorite surrounds the quartz-tourmaline-pyrite veins and covers almost 80% of the mineralized zone; outside of the envelopes,
prior chlorite alteration affects the quartz diorite and gives it a darker grey-green colour. Occasionally, enclaves of relatively unaltered medium grey-green-coloured quartz diorite (with no veining
or gold) are found within the GEZ and the M and E Zones; they are removed with the rest of the stope's ore to allow for a smooth stope shape, required for mining purposes.

Most
of the gold occurs as microscopic particles that are almost always associated with pyrite, generally adjacent to grains and crystals but also 20% included within the pyrite. The gold-bearing
pyrite occurs in the quartz-tourmaline veins and in narrow fractures in the albite-carbonate-altered quartz diorite (generally immediately adjacent to the veins).

Exploration

The combined amount of gold in proven and probable mineral reserves at the Goldex mine at the end of 2014 is 0.34 million ounces (7.1 million tonnes of ore
grading 1.49 grams of gold per tonne), which represents a decrease of approximately 32,000 ounces of gold in reserves after mining 100,433 ounces of gold. Underground measured and
indicated mineral resources at the Goldex mine increased by 3.7 million tonnes of ore to 33.8 million tonnes of ore grading 1.93 grams of gold per tonne, primarily due to
conversion of inferred to indicated mineral resources, reduction of the cut-off grade and positive drilling results in the Dx and Deep Zones. In 2014, there was an increase in inferred mineral
resources of approximately 3.2 million tonnes of ore to 29.2 million tonnes of ore grading 1.64 grams of gold per tonne. This increase in the inferred mineral resources was
primarily due to a reduction of the cut-off grade and positive drilling results in the Dx and Deep Zones.

Diamond
drilling at Goldex in 2014 totaled 178 holes for a total length of 33,556 metres. Of this total, 12 holes (1,661 metres) were for exploration of the Mx Zone at a
cost of $6.6 million, 73 holes (20,498 metres) were definition (conversion) drilling principally in the Dx, Deep and Mx Zones, 88 holes (10,841 metres) were
delineation drilling in the Mx, M and E Zones and five holes (556 metres) were holes drilled to provide geotechnical information. Other exploration-related expenses in 2014 included ramp
development and a study of the Deep Zone.

Satellite
zones at the Goldex mine, including the Mx, Dx, Deep and South Zones, are being evaluated by the Company and, if found to be economically mineable, are expected to provide the Company
additional flexibility in its mining operations at the Goldex mine and may extend the mine life.

In
2015, the Company expects to spend $1.9 million on 17,500 metres of definition (conversion) drilling, $0.35 million on 5,600 metres of exploration drilling and
$11.7 million on 4,810 metres of development work on the exploration ramp into the Deep Zone, for a total of $13.95 million at the Goldex mine. The objective is to outline initial
reserves from the Deep Zone in late 2015 or early 2016.

Canadian Malartic Mine

The Canadian Malartic mine is located approximately 25 kilometres west of the City of Val-d'Or and 80 kilometres east of City of Rouyn-Noranda. The mine lies
within the town of Malartic. It straddles the townships of Fournière, Malartic and Surimau. At December 31, 2014, the Canadian Malartic mine was estimated to have proven and
probable
mineral reserves containing approximately 8.7 million ounces of gold comprised of 254 million tonnes of ore grading 1.06 grams per tonne.

The
Company acquired its 50% interest in the Canadian Malartic mine on June 16, 2014 through its joint acquisition of Osisko with Yamana. See "General Development of the
Business  Three-Year History  2014" for further details of the Company's acquisition of its 50% interest in the Canadian
Malartic mine.

The
Canadian Malartic mine operates under mining leases obtained from the Ministry of Natural Resources (Quebec) and under certificates of approval granted by the Ministry of Sustainable Development,
Environment and the Fight Against Climate Change (Quebec). The Canadian Malartic mine is comprised of the East Amphi property, the CHL Malartic prospect and the Canadian Malartic property. The
Canadian Malartic mine consists of a contiguous block comprising one mining concession, five mining leases and 208 mining claims covering an aggregate area of 8,735.9 hectares. The
Canadian Malartic mine is owned by Canadian Malartic GP. The Canadian Malartic mining claims give Canadian Malartic GP the right to explore for mineral substances on the subject land;
the mining leases give Canadian Malartic GP the right to mine mineral substances on the subject land; and the mining concession gives Canadian Malartic GP the right to mine mineral
substances and with surface rights limited to those necessary for mining activities on the subject land.

Expiration
dates for the mining leases on the Canadian Malartic property vary between December 3, 2015 and February 17, 2034, and are automatically renewable for three further ten-year
terms upon payment of a small fee.

The
Canadian Malartic mine can be accessed either from Val d'Or in the east or from Rouyn-Noranda in the west via Quebec provincial highway No. 117. A paved road running north-south from the
town of Malartic towards Mourier Lake cuts through the central area of the Canadian Malartic mine. The Canadian Malartic property is further accessible by a series of logging roads and trails. The
Canadian Malartic mine is also serviced by a rail-line which cuts through the middle of the town of Malartic. The nearest large airport is located in Val-d'Or, about 25 km east of the Canadian
Malartic mine.

A
buffer zone 135 metres wide has been developed along the northern limit of the open pit to mitigate the impacts of mining activities on the citizens of Malartic. Inside this buffer zone, a
landscaped ridge was built mainly using rock and topsoil produced during pre-stripping work. The height of this landscaped ridge is 15 metres where the concentration of residents is higher and
five to six metres in less populated areas.

The
electrical power for the Canadian Malartic mine is supplied from the existing Hydro-Quebec 120kV Cadillac main substation. A 120 kV electrical transmission line, approximately
19 kilometres long was built. The plant water systems consist of the process water system which is supplied principally from the plant thickener overflows, the fresh water system which is
supplied from an old underground mine dewatering system, the reagent preparation water system, the gland water distribution system and the reclaim water from form the Southeast Pond area. The Canadian
Malartic mine is also connected to the Malartic municipal sewage and potable water systems. Fuel storage facilities have 250,000 litres of storage capacity.

The
Canadian Malartic mine includes open-pit operations, an administration/warehouse building, a mine office/truck shop building, a process plant and the crushing plant.

Following
the joint acquisition of the Canadian Malartic mine by the Company and Yamana, most of the mining claims are subject to a 5% net smelter return royalty payable to New Osisko. The
mining claims comprising the CHL Malartic prospect are subject to 3% net smelter return royalties payable to each of New Osisko and Abitibi Royalties Inc. In addition, of the 208 mining
claims constituting the Canadian Malartic property, 101 are also subject to other net smelter return royalties that vary between 1% and 2%, payable under varying circumstances. In 2014 Canadian
Malartic GP, the operator of the Canadian Malartic mine, paid C$28.6 million in the aggregate with respect to these net smelter return royalties, and expects to pay approximately
C$41 million in 2015.

Gold
was first discovered in the Malartic area in 1923. Gold production on the Canadian Malartic property began in 1935 and continued uninterrupted until 1965. Following various ownership changes over
the ensuing years, Osisko acquired ownership of the Canadian Malartic property in 2004. Based on a feasibility study completed in December 2008, Osisko completed construction of a
55,000 tonne per day mill complex, tailings impoundment area, 5 million cubic metre polishing pond and road network by February 2011 and the mill was commissioned in
March 2011. The Canadian Malartic mine achieved commercial production on May 19, 2011. From 2011 until March 31, 2014, the Canadian Malartic mine produced 1,203,922 ounces
of gold and 902,537 ounces of silver from 43,936,334 tonnes of ore grading 0.94 grams of gold per tonne and 0.91 grams of silver per tonne.

As
of December 31, 2010, the Canadian Malartic mine had received all formal government permits required for its construction and related activities, with the exception of the authorization for
the mill and mine operations. The official certificate of authorization for the mill and operations was granted on March 31, 2011, at which point the Canadian Malartic mine was fully permitted.

On
February 26, 2014 the Government of Québec adopted a decree authorizing the mining of the Gouldie deposit, which allowed pre-stripping work to proceed. Since then the
pre-stripping activity has been initiated for the Gouldie deposit. On February 18, 2014, the Ministry of Natural Resources (Quebec) granted Osisko a mining lease having an approximate total
area 66 hectares. The mining lease stipulates that Canadian Malartic GP has 30 months to mine the Gouldie deposit and may not exceed a daily production rate of 6,990 tonnes
of ore and a daily extraction rate of 30,000 tonnes of ore, waste and overburden.

Mining and Milling Facilities

Surface Plan of the Canadian Malartic Mine (as at December 31, 2014)

GRAPHIC

The
Canadian Malartic mine is a large open-pit operation comprising the Canadian Malartic, Barnat and Gouldie pits. Canadian Malartic GP continues to work with the Quebec Ministry of Transport
and the town of Malartic on the deviation of Quebec provincial highway No. 117 to gain access to the higher grade Barnat deposit. The final layout and the environmental impact study was
completed by the end of January 2015.

Mining Methods

Mining at the Canadian Malartic mine is done by open pit method using excavators and trucks. In order to maximize productivity and limit the number of units operating in the
pit, large scale equipment was selected for the mine operation. The primary loading tools are hydraulic excavators, with wheel loaders used as a secondary loading tool. The mine production schedule
was developed to feed the mill at a nominal rate of 55,000 tonnes per day.

The
throughput at the Canadian Malartic mine in 2014 averaged 51,248 tonnes per day compared with 49,338 tonnes per day in 2013. The increased throughput in 2014 was largely due to mill
optimization, additional crushed ore from the portable crusher and a new pebble circuit.

Surface Facilities

Surface facilities at the Canadian Malartic mine include the administration/warehouse building, the mine office/truck shop building, the process plant and the crushing plant.
The processing plant has a daily capacity of 55,000 tonnes of ore.

Ore
is processed via conventional cyanidation. Ore blasted from the pit is first crushed by a gyratory crusher followed by secondary crushing prior to grinding. Ground ore feeds successively into
leach and CIP circuits.

A
Zadra elution circuit is used to extract the gold from the loaded carbon. Pregnant solution is processing via electrowining and the resulting precipitate is smelted into gold/silver dore
bars.

Mill
tails are thickened and detoxified, reducing cyanide levels below 20 parts per million. A recent study supported the change-over of the existing Combinox (sulfur
dioxide  hydrogen peroxide) cyanide detoxifying process into a Caro's (sulfuric acide  hydrogen peroxide) acid process.
Detoxified slurry is subsequently pumped to a conventional tailings facility.

Production and Mineral Recoveries

Since the June 16, 2014 acquisition of Osisko, Agnico Eagle and Yamana have each held a 50% interest in the Canadian Malartic mine. From June 16 to
December 31, 2014, Agnico Eagle's share of the Canadian Malartic mine's
payable production was 143,008 ounces of gold and 149,551 ounces of silver, at a total cash costs per ounce of gold produced of $701 on a by-product basis and $721 on a co-product basis.

On
a 100% basis over the full year of 2014, the Canadian Malartic mine had payable production of 535,470 ounces of gold and 533,315 ounces of silver from 18,705,550 tonnes of ore
grading 1.00 gram of gold per tonne and 1.19 grams of silver per tonne. The Canadian Malartic processing facility averaged 51,248 tonnes of ore per day and operated 94.2% of
available time. Gold and silver recovery averaged 88.8% and 74.8%, respectively. The minesite costs per tonne at Canadian Malartic were C$19.76.

The

The Company's 50% share of annual production at the Canadian Malartic mine in 2015 is expected to consist of approximately 280,000 ounces of gold and
272,500 ounces of silver from 9.75 millions of tonnes of ore grading 1.04 grams per tonne gold and 1.17 grams per tonne silver. The total cash costs to produce gold in 2015
is expected
to be approximately $609 per ounce on a by-product basis, with estimated gold recovery of 89% and silver recovery of 74%. Minesite costs per tonne of approximately C$20.00 are expected in 2015.

Environmental Matters

Since 2009, there have been 59 non-conformance blast notices, 53 non-conformance noise notices, 17 non-conformance notices for dust and air quality,
4 non-conformance notices for water quality (surface and final effluent) and 16 other non-conformance notices. In 2011, a detailed plan was developed by Osisko to manage hazardous materials,
assess infrastructure safety, and monitor noise, vibrations, air quality, dust, atmospheric emissions, effluent quality, groundwater and surface water. Mitigation measures were put in place to improve
the process and avoid any non-conformance. The mine's team of on-site environmental experts continuously monitor regulatory compliance in terms of approvals, permits, and observance of directives and
requirements.

The
original design of the waste rock pile was developed to accommodate approximately 326 millions of tonnes of mechanically placed waste rock requiring a total storage volume of approximately
161 million cubic metres. The Gouldie deposit is located in the center of the initially planned footprint of the waste rock pile, making it necessary to revise the waste rock piling sequence in
order to keep the Gouldie deposit available for mining.

The
existing polishing pond, is contained within the current authorized footprint of the tailings management facility. This pond will be later used as a cell to store tailings. Before using this pond,
Canadian Malartic GP plans to build a new polishing pond east of dyke A. The existing polishing pond, converted into a tailings cell, will be the 8th cell of the tailings management
facility with an estimated capacity of 48 millions of tonnes adding 2.5 years of operation to the tailings management facility capacity for a total of 148 million tonnes and
7.5 years of operation. The total capacity of the current tailings management facility is estimated at 198 million tonnes. The expansion of the open-pit, with the production from the
Barnat pit, will increase to 342 million tonnes the total amount of tailings to manage, requiring an additional 144 millions of tonnes in tailings storage capacity. Canadian
Malartic GP plans to store tailings in an extended tailings facility and in the Canadian Malartic pit at the end of its operations. According to the mining plan, at the end of mine life, 50 to
100 million tonnes of tailings will be deposited in the pit. The rest of the tailings, a minimum of 59 and a maximum of 109 million tonnes, will be deposited in the extended tailings
facility.

Regulatory
approval for the proposed tailings deposition in the Canadian Malartic pit and the expansion of the currently authorized tailings area are part of the approval process for the Canadian
Malartic pit extension (Barnat deposit) subject to the environmental impact assessment process of theQuebec Environmental Protection Act. The
environmental impact assessment has been completed and is under review by the Ministry of Sustainable Development, Environment and the Fight Against Climate Change (Quebec). Golder
Associates Ltd. is designing the tailings extension component and is preparing a hydrogeological study to demonstrate that the Canadian Malartic pit would provide a hydraulic trap and contain
the tailings with minimum environmental risk.

An
annual hydrological site balance is maintained to provide a yearly estimate of water volumes that must be managed in the different structures of the water management system of the Canadian Malartic
mine during an
average climatic year (in terms of precipitation). Results of this hydrological balance indicate that excess water from the Southeast Pond will eventually need to be released into the
environment. A water treatment plant is currently under construction to ensure that in the short and medium term the water to be released to the environment will meet water quality requirements.
Adding a treatment plant is expected to reduce the risks associated with surface water management and add flexibility to the system.

Reclamation
and closure costs have been estimated for rehabilitating the tailings facility and waste dump, vegetating the surrounding area, dismantling the plant and associated infrastructure, and
performing environmental inspection and monitoring for a period of ten years. The reclamation and closure cost is estimated at C$51.5 million. Financial assurance has been provided based
on the closure plan.

Capital Expenditures

Capital expenditures at the Canadian Malartic mine during 2014 were approximately $36.1 million, which included sustaining capital expenditures and deferred expense, but
excluded capitalized drilling. Budgeted 2015 capital expenditures at the Canadian Malartic mine are $59.0 million, excluding capitalized drilling.

Development

Development activities at the Canadian Malartic mine in 2014 primarily consisted of stripping activities. Development activities in 2015 are expected to include additional
stripping activities, preparations for the pit extension and work related to the proposed deviation of Quebec provincial highway No. 117.

Geology, Mineralization and Exploration

Geology

The Canadian Malartic property straddles the southern margin of the eastern portion of the Abitibi Subprovince, an Archean greenstone belt situated in the southeastern part of
the Superior Province of the Canadian Shield. The Abitibi Subprovince is limited to the north by gneisses and plutons of the Opatica Subprovince, and to the south by metasediments and intrusive rocks
of the Pontiac Subprovince. The contact between the Pontiac Subprovince and the rocks of the Abitibi greenstone belt is characterized by a major fault corridor, the east-west trending Larder
LakeCadillac Fault Zone ("LLCFZ"). This structure runs from Larder Lake, Ontario through Rouyn-Noranda, Cadillac, Malartic, Val-d'Or and Louvicourt, Québec, at which
point it is truncated by the Grenville Front.

The
regional stratigraphy of the southeastern Abitibi area is divided into groups of alternating volcanic and sedimentary rocks, generally oriented at
N280°  N330° and separated by fault zones. The main lithostratigraphic divisions in this region are, from south to north, the Pontiac
Group of the Pontiac Subprovince and the Piché, Cadillac, Blake River,

AGNICO EAGLE37ANNUAL INFORMATION FORM

Kewagama
and Malartic groups of the Abitibi Subprovince. The various lithological groups within the Abitibi Subprovince are metamorphosed to greenschist facies. Metamorphic grade increases toward the
southern limit of the Abitibi belt, where rocks of the Piché Group and the northern part of the Pontiac Group have been metamorphosed to upper greenschist facies.

The
majority of the Canadian Malartic property is underlain by metasedimentary units of the Pontiac Group, lying immediately south of the LLCFZ. The north-central portion of the property covers
an approximately 9.5 kilometre section of the LLCFZ corridor and is underlain by mafic-ultramafic metavolcanic rocks of the Piché Group cut by porphyritic and dioritic
intrusions. The Cadillac Group covers the northern part of the property (north of the LLCFZ). It consists of greywacke containing lenses of conglomerate.

Mineralization

Surface drilling by Lac Minerals Ltd. in the 1980s defined several near-surface mineralized zones now included in the Canadian Malartic deposit (the F, P, A,
Wolfe and Gilbert zones), all expressions of a larger, continuous mineralized system located at depth around the historical underground workings of the Canadian Malartic and Sladen mines. In addition
to these, the Western Porphyry Zone occurs 1 km northeast of the main Canadian Malartic deposit and the Gouldie mineralized zone occurs approximately 1.2 km southeast of the main
Canadian Malartic deposit, although the relationship between these zones and the main deposit is presently unknown.

Mineralization
in the Canadian Malartic deposit occurs as a continuous shell of 1 to 5% disseminated pyrite associated with fine native gold and traces of chalcopyrite, sphalerite and tellurides. The
gold resource is mostly hosted by altered clastic sediments of the Pontiac Group (70%) overlying an epizonal dioritic porphyry intrusion. A portion of the deposit also occurs in the upper portions of
the porphyry body (30%).

The
South Barnat deposit is located to the north and south of the old South Barnat and East Malartic mine workings, largely along the southern edge of the LLCFZ. The disseminated/stockwork gold
mineralization at South Barnat is hosted both in potassic-altered, silicified greywackes of the Pontiac Group (south of the fault contact) and in potassic-altered porphyry dykes and schistose,
carbonatized and biotitic ultramafic rocks (north of the fault contact).

Several
mineralized zones have been documented within the LLCFZ (South Barnat, Buckshot, East Malartic, Jeffrey, Odyssey, East Amphi, Fourax), all of which are generally spatially associated
with stockworks and disseminations within dioritic or felsic porphyritic intrusions.

Exploration

The combined amount of gold in proven and probable mineral reserves at the Canadian Malartic mine at the end of 2014 is 8.7 million ounces, which represents a decrease
of 3% as compared to June 16, 2014. This mineral reserve includes replacement of the 285,378 ounces of gold mined from June 16, 2014 to December 31, 2014. The reduction in
mineral reserves is principally associated with ore mined during the second half of 2014.

Diamond
drilling is used for exploration on the Canadian Malartic property. In 2014, 0 holes (0 metres) were drilled for definition (conversion) drilling and 32 holes
(20,139 metres) were for exploration. Expenditures on diamond drilling at the Canadian Malartic mine during 2014 were approximately C$25 million.

The
main focus of the 2014 exploration program was the Odyssey North and Odyssey South targets.

In
2015, Canadian Malartic GP expects to spend C$1.2 million on 7,000 metres of exploration drilling at the Canadian Malartic mine.

Kittila Mine

The Kittila mine, which commenced commercial production in May 2009, is located in northern Finland approximately 900 kilometres north of Helsinki and
50 kilometres northeast of the town of Kittila. At December 31, 2014, the Kittila mine was estimated to contain proven and probable mineral reserves of 4.5 million ounces of gold
comprised of 28.5 million tonnes of ore grading 4.93 grams of gold per tonne. The Kittila mine is accessible by paved road from the village of Kiistala, which is located on the southern
portion of the main claim block. The gold deposit is located near the small village of Rouravaara, approximately ten kilometres north of the village of Kiistala. The property is close to
infrastructure, including hydro power, an airport and the town of Kittila. The Kittila mine also has access to a qualified labour force, including mining and construction contractors.

The
total landholdings surrounding and including the Kittila mine comprise one mining licence (licence area of 847 hectares and licence extension area of 285 hectares) and
187 tenements covering approximately 22,897 hectares. The tenements form a continuous block around the Kittila mining licence. The block has been divided into the Suurikuusikko
area (which includes the Rouravaara area), the Suurikuusikko West area, the Suurikuusikko East area and the Kittila mining licence.

The
boundary of the mining licence is determined by ground-surveyed points, whereas the boundaries of the tenements are not required to be surveyed. All of the tenements at the Kittila mine are
registered in the name of
Agnico Eagle Finland Oy, an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The expiry dates of the tenements vary, with the earliest expiry date being August 2017. Tenements are initially
valid for four years, provided exploration work in the area is reported annually and a small annual fee is paid to maintain title; extensions of titles can be granted for 11 additional years
upon payment of a slightly higher fee and active exploration in the area. Agnico Eagle Finland Oy also holds the mining licence in respect of the Kittila mine. The mine is subject to a 2.0% net
smelter return royalty payable to the Republic of Finland.

The
Kittila mine area is sparsely populated and is situated between 200 and 245 metres above sea level. The topography is characterized by low rolling forested hills separated by marshes, lakes
and interconnected rivers. The gold deposit is situated on an area of land that has no special use at present and there is sufficient land available for tailings facilities. Water requirements for the
Kittila mine are sourced from the nearby Seurujoki River, recirculation of water from pit dewatering and tailings pond water. The Kittila region is located within the South-West Lapland zone of the
northern boreal vegetation zone characterized by spruce forests, marshes and bogs.

The
mine is located within the Arctic Circle, but the climate is moderated by the Gulf Stream off the coast of Norway, such that northern Finland's climate is comparable to that of eastern Canada.
Winter temperatures range from minus ten to minus 30 degrees Celsius, whereas summer temperatures range from ten degrees Celsius to the mid-20s. Exploration and mining work can be
carried out year-round. Because of its northern latitude, winter days are extremely short with a brief period of 24-hour darkness around the winter solstice. Conversely, summer days are very long with
a brief period of 24-hour daylight in early summer around the summer solstice. Annual precipitation varies between five and 50 centimetres, one-third of which falls as snow. Snow accumulation
usually begins in November and remains until March or April.

The
Company acquired its 100%, indirect interest in the Kittila mine through the acquisition of the Swedish company Riddarhyttan Resources AB in November 2005. In June 2006, on the basis
of an independently reviewed feasibility study, the Company approved construction of the Kittila mine. Mining at Kittila started initially as open pit mining. This open pit mining was completed in
November 2012 and all mining is currently carried out from the underground via ramp access. The initial underground stope was mined in early 2010. Ore is processed in a 3,000-tonne per day
surface processing plant that was commissioned in late 2008. Limited gold concentrate production started in September 2008 and gold dore bar production commenced in January 2009. A
decision to increase the mine production was made in February 2013 and construction started immediately. The production increase consists of expanding the processing capacity from
3,000 tonnes per day to 3,750 tonnes per day. The expansion project was completed ahead of schedule in 2014, and final expansion tie-ins were completed during a
scheduled maintenance shut-down in September. The ramping-up of processing capacity continued to year-end, occasionally reaching over 4,000 tonnes per day.

The
orebodies at Kittila were initially mined from two open pits, followed by underground operations to mine the deposits further beneath the surface. Smaller additional open pits will be used to mine
any remaining mineral reserves close to the surface in the future. Open pit mining started in May 2008 and the extracted ore was stockpiled. As of December 2014, a total of
6.2 million tonnes of ore have been processed, including ore from the open pits and underground, 0.52 million tonnes of ore are currently stockpiled and 37.3 million tonnes of
waste rock have been excavated, including both open pit and underground excavation. Work on the ramp and other work to access the mineral reserves underground continued throughout 2014. Total
underground (lateral and vertical) development at the end of 2014 is approximately 48,900 metres. Underground mining commenced in the fourth quarter of 2010 and, at the end of 2014, a total of
3.35 million tonnes of ore has been mined from the underground portion of the mine.

Mining Methods

At the Kittila mine, the Suurikuusikko and the Rouravaara orebodies are currently mined by underground mining methods and access to the underground mine is via ramp.
Approximately 4,500 tonnes of ore per day are fed to the concentrator. The underground mining method is open stoping with delayed backfill. Stopes are between 25 and 40 metres high and
yield between 10,000 and 40,000 tonnes of ore per stope. To ensure sufficient ore production is available in the future to supply the mill, over 11,000 metres of tunnels will be
developed each year. After extraction, stopes are filled with paste backfill or cemented backfill to enable the safe extraction of ore in adjacent stopes. Ore is trucked to the surface crusher via the
ramp access system.

Surface
mining at the Kittila mine ended in 2012. Surface mining was completed at the Rouravaara pit in April 2012 and surface mining at the Suurikuusikko pit was completed in early
November 2012.

Surface Facilities

Construction of the processing plant and associated equipment was completed in 2008 and facilities at the Kittila mine include an office building, a maintenance facility for
mining equipment, a warehouse, a second maintenance shop, an oxygen plant, a processing plant, a paste backfill plant, a tank farm, a crusher, conveyor housings and an ore bin. Due to limited space in
the original office building, in 2014 a second office building was constructed close to the underground ramp. In addition, there are some temporary structures for contractor offices and
work areas.

The
ore at the Kittila mine is treated by grinding, flotation, pressure oxidation and CIL circuits. After grinding, ore processing consists of two stages. In the first stage, ore is enriched by
flotation and in the second stage the gold is extracted by pressure oxidation and CIL processes. At the end of the second stage, gold is recovered from the carbon in a Zadra elution circuit and
recovered from the solution using electrowinning and finally poured into dore bars using an electric induction furnace.

During
2014, flotation recoveries averaged 93.0%. Recoveries in the second stage of the process in 2014 averaged 90.1%.

Production and Mineral Recoveries

In 2014, the Kittila mine had payable production of 141,742 ounces of gold from 1,156,368 tonnes of ore grading 4.55 grams of gold per tonne. The total
cash costs at Kittila in 2014 per ounce of gold produced was $845 on a by-product basis and $846 on a co-product basis. In 2014, the Kittila processing facility averaged 3,772 tonnes of ore per
day and operated approximately 84% of available time. Gold recovery averaged 84.21%. The minesite costs per tonne at Kittila were €78.58 in 2014.

The
following table sets out the metal recoveries at the Kittila mine in 2014.

|    

In 2015, the Kittila mine is expected to produce approximately 185,000 ounces of gold from 1,487,000 tonnes of ore grading 4.5 grams of
gold per tonne at an estimated total cash costs per ounce of approximately $711 on a by-product basis, with estimated gold recovery of 86.0%. Minesite costs per tonne of approximately
€72 are expected in 2015.

Environmental Matters

Agnico Eagle Finland Oy currently holds a mining licence, an environmental permit and operational permits in respect of the Kittila mine. All permits necessary to begin
production were received during 2008.

The
construction of the first phase of the tailings dam and waterproof bottom layer was completed in the fall of 2008. Work on the second phase was completed in 2010 and included the expansion of the
tailings area. Work on the third phase began in 2013 and includes work to heighten the dam. Work on the third phase is expected to continue for several years.

Water
from dewatering the mine and water used in the mine and mill is collected and treated by sedimentation. Emissions and environmental impact are monitored in accordance with the comprehensive
monitoring program that has been approved by the Finnish environmental authorities. Work on enhancing the scrubbing of mill gases initiated in 2012 was postponed to 2014 due to reviews by authorities
of the permit levels. Financial assurance is provided to the environmental authorities on an annual basis in the amount prescribed by the environmental permit.

The
environmental permit renewal was received in July 2013. This renewal contains additional effluent criteria and the Company has appealed the timing of compliance with such criteria to allow
for studies and design to take place for new water treatment as required. A decision by the Administrative Court reviewing the appeal is expected in in the first quarter of 2015. The Company is
currently investigating different water treatment techniques to ensure compliance with the new criteria.

Capital Expenditures

Capital expenditures at the Kittila mine during 2014 totaled approximately $106.2 million, which included mill expansion construction, mill modification, underground
development and sustaining capital costs, but excludes capitalized drilling.

The
Company expects capital expenditures during 2015 at the Kittila mine to be approximately $63.0 million, excluding capitalized drilling.

Development

In 2014, underground development continued in both the Suurikuusikko and Rouravaara mining areas. The driving of a ramp from surface towards the new Rimpi zone was also
initiated in 2014. A total of 8,884 metres of ramp and sublevel access development was completed during the year. A total of 11,751 tonnes of ore from development and
1,057,242 tonnes of stope ore were mined in 2014. The Company expects to complete approximately 13,340 metres of lateral development and 325 metres of vertical development
during 2015.

Geology, Mineralization and Exploration

Geology

The Kittila mine is situated within the Kittila Greenstone belt, part of the Lapland Greenstone belt in the Proterozoic-age Svecofennian geologic province. The appearance and
geology of the area is similar to that of the Abitibi region of the Canadian Shield. In northern Finland, the bedrock is typically covered by a thin but uniform blanket of unconsolidated glacial till.
Bedrock exposures are scarce and irregularly distributed.

The
mine area is underlain by mafic volcanic and sedimentary rocks metamorphosed to greenschist assemblages and assigned to the Kittila group. The major rock units trend north to north-northeast and
are near-vertical. The volcanics are further sub-divided into iron-rich tholeiitic basalts ("Kautoselka Formation") located to the west and magnesium-rich tholeiitic basalt, coarse volcaniclastic
units, graphitic schist and minor chemical sedimentary rocks ("Vesmajarvi Formation") located to the east. The contact between these two rock units consists of a transitional zone
(the "Porkonen Formation") varying between 50 and 200 metres in thickness. This zone is strongly sheared, brecciated and characterized by intense hydrothermal alteration and gold
mineralization, features consistent with major brittle-ductile deformation zones. The zone is part of a major north-northeast-oriented shear zone (the "Suurikuusikko Trend").

Mineralization

The Porkonen Formation hosts the Kittila gold deposit, which contains multiple mineralized zones stretching over a strike length of more than 25 kilometres. Most of the
work at the Kittila mine has been focused on the 4.5-kilometre stretch that hosts the known gold reserves and resources. From north to south, the zones are Rimminvuoma ("Rimpi-S"), the deep extension
of Rimminvuoma ("Rimpi Deep"), North Rouravaara ("Roura-N"), Central Rouravaara ("Roura-C"), depth extension of Rouravaara and Suurikuusikko ("Suuri/Roura Deep"), Suurikuusikko ("Suuri"), Etela and
Ketola. The Suuri

42AGNICO EAGLE
           ANNUAL INFORMATION FORM

and
Suuri/Roura Deep zones include several parallel sub-zones that have previously been referred to as Main East, Main Central and Main West. The Suuri zone hosts approximately 23% of the current
probable gold reserve estimate on a contained-gold basis, while Suuri Deep has approximately 19%, Roura-C approximately 7%, Roura Deep approximately 21%, Roura-N approximately 1%, Rimpi Deep
approximately 22%, Rimpi-S approximately 5%, Ketola approximately 1% and Etela approximately 0.1%.

Gold
mineralization in these zones is associated with intense hydrothermal alteration (carbonate-albite-sulphide), and is almost exclusively refractory, locked inside fine-grained sulphide minerals:
arsenopyrite (approximately 73%) or pyrite (approximately 23%). The rest is "free gold", which is manifested as extremely small grains of gold in pyrite.

Exploration

In 2014, proven and probable gold reserves decreased by approximately 190,000 ounces to 4.52 million ounces of gold (28.5 million tonnes of ore grading
4.93 grams per tonne). This decrease was primarily due to an increased cut-off grade resulting from the lower gold price which caused a 0.2 million ounce reduction in proven and probable
mineral reserves. The decrease was off-set, in part, by increased mineral reserves from exploration and conversion drilling in the Roura Deep Zone. Measured mineral resources at December 31,
2014 were 0.8 million tonnes of ore grading 2.78 grams of gold per tonne. Indicated mineral resources increased by 2.8 million tonnes to 13.4 million tonnes grading 2.98 grams of
gold per tonne. Inferred mineral resources increased by 1.4 million tonnes to 8.9 million tonnes of ore grading 4.30 grams of gold per tonne.

Diamond
drilling is used for exploration on the Kittila property. In 2014, most of the work on the mining licence area focused on the Roura and Rimpi areas. From 1987 through the end of 2014, a total
of 3,430 drill holes, totaling 775,849 metres, have been completed on the property. In 2014, between four and five drills were used on the Kittila property. A total of 381 drill holes were completed
in 2014 for a length of 41,121 metres. Of these drill holes, 334 holes (21,226 metres) were for delineation drilling, seven holes (1,797 metres) were for conversion drilling and 34 holes (16,313
metres) were related to mine exploration. Total expenditures for diamond drilling in 2014 were $6.71 million, including $0.31 million for definition (conversion) drilling and
$4.40 million for exploration.

Outside
of the Kittila mining licence area, systematic diamond drilling and target focused ground geophysics continued along the Suurikuusikko Trend, and a number of new targets were tested by diamond
drilling in 2014. Encouraging results have been obtained from four gold zones in the Kuotko West area located approximately ten kilometres north of the Kittila mine site. A total of
30 diamond drill holes totaling 7,483 metres were drilled on exploration targets outside of the mining licence area in 2014, at a cost of $3.5 million.

The
2015 exploration budget for the Kittila mine is approximately $4.38 million ($3.84 million for 14,450 metres of minesite exploration drilling and $0.54 million for 4,000
metres of resource conversion drilling), using up to three drills throughout the year to help further identify the gold reserve and resource potential of the Kittila property.

In
addition, $4.4 million of exploration expenditures, including an estimated 6,300 metres of diamond drilling, is planned in 2015 for exploration along the Suurikuusikko and Kapsa
Trends, and $0.6 million is planned for geophysical surveys and geochemical sampling along the nearby Hanhimaa Shear Zone.

Meadowbank Mine

The Meadowbank mine, which achieved commercial production in March 2010, is located in the Third Portage Lake area in the Kivalliq District of Nunavut in northern
Canada, approximately 70 kilometres north of Baker Lake. At December 31, 2014, the Meadowbank mine was estimated to contain proven and probable mineral reserves of 1.2 million
ounces of gold comprised of 11.8 million tonnes of ore grading an average of 3.08 grams of gold per tonne. The Company acquired its 100% interest in the Meadowbank mine in 2007 as the
result of the acquisition of Cumberland Resources Ltd.

The
fresh water required for domestic camp use, mining and milling is obtained from the intake barge at Third Portage Lake. Power is supplied by a 29-megawatt diesel electric power generation plant.

The
Meadowbank mine is held under ten Crown mining leases, four exploration concessions and 40 Crown mineral claims. The Crown mining leases, which cover the Portage, Goose and Goose South
deposits, are administered under federal legislation. The Crown mining leases, which have renewable ten-year terms, have no annual work commitments but are subject to annual rent fees that vary
according to their renewal date. The Crown mining leases cover 7,395 hectares and expire in either 2016 or 2019. The production lease with the Kivalliq Inuit Association ("KIA") is a surface
lease covering 1,513 hectares and requires the payment of C$158,865 annually. Production from subsurface lease areas is subject to a royalty of up to 14% of the adjusted net profits, as defined
in theNorthwest Territories and Nunavut Mining Regulations. In order to conduct exploration on the Inuit-owned lands at Meadowbank, the Company must
receive approval for an annual work proposal from the KIA, the body that holds the surface rights in the Kivalliq District and administers land use in the region through various boards. The Nunavut
Water Board (the "NWB"), one such board, provided the recommendation to Aboriginal Affairs and Northern Development Canada to grant the Meadowbank mine's construction and operating licences in
July 2008. The Company has obtained all of the approvals and licences required to build and operate the Meadowbank mine.

The
four Meadowbank exploration concessions comprise approximately 33,490 hectares and are granted by Nunavut Tunngavik Inc. ("NTI"), the corporation responsible for administering
subsurface mineral rights on Inuit-owned lands in Nunavut. In 2015, exploration concessions covering the Vault deposit at Meadowbank will require annual rental fees of approximately C$57,000. During
the exploration phase, the concessions can be held for up to 20 years and the concessions can be converted into production leases with annual fees of C$1 per hectare, with no annual work
commitments. Production from the concessions is subject to a 12% net profits interest royalty from which annual deductions are limited to 85% of the gross revenue.

In
2012, the Company signed a production lease with NTI covering the extraction and processing of gold from the Vault deposit. This lease authorizes the Company to mine and process gold from the Vault
deposit and sets in place royalty payments that are equivalent to those being paid by the Company at the Portage and Goose pits.

The
40 Crown mineral claims cover approximately 36,889 hectares at Meadowbank and are subject to land fees and work commitments. Land fees are payable only when work is filed. The most
recent filing was in 2012, when approximately $7,254 in land fees were paid and $4,426,941 in assessment work was submitted.

The
Meadowbank area consists of low, rolling hills with numerous lakes. The topography in the immediate vicinity of the mine is generally flat, with relief in the order of ten to 12 metres near
the main deposit areas, and as high as 60 metres locally. Elevations are about 133 metres above sea level along the lake shorelines. This location is considered to have an arid arctic
climate with temperatures ranging from 5 to minus 40 degrees Celsius in the winter (from October to May) and from minus 5 to 25 degrees Celsius throughout the summer (from June to September). The area
is characterized by a continuous vegetation cover interspersed with bedrock outcroppings and continuously aggrading surfaces. Vegetation is typical of upland tundra, as the site is well north of the
tree-line. The animal population includes mammals such as caribou, birds such as the snowy owl and fish including lake trout. Surface geological work can be carried out from mid-May to mid-October,
while mining, milling and exploration drilling can take place throughout the year, though outdoor work can be hampered in December and January by the cold and darkness.

The
Meadowbank mine is accessible from Baker Lake, located 70 kilometres to the south, over a 110-kilometre all-weather road completed in March 2008. Baker Lake provides
2.5 months of summer shipping access via Hudson Bay and year-round airport facilities. The Meadowbank mine also has a 1,752-metre long gravel airstrip, permitting access by air. Fuel,
equipment, bulk materials and supplies are shipped by barge and ship from Montreal, Quebec (or Hudson Bay port facilities) into Baker Lake during the summer port access period that starts at
the end of July in each year. Fuel and supplies are transported year-round to the site from Baker Lake by conventional tractor trailer units. Scheduled and chartered flights provide transportation for
personnel and air cargo.

The
Meadowbank mine is designed as a "fly-in/fly-out" operation. The permanent bases for employees from which to service the mine are Val d'Or and Montreal in Quebec and communities in the Kivalliq
District of Nunavut. To the greatest extent possible the Company tries to source its Meadowbank mine workforce from the local area.

Meadowbank has three major deposits that have sufficient drilling definition to sustain mineral reserves: Portage, Goose and Vault. All required aggregates used in the mining process are produced from
waste material taken from the north end of the Portage pit. In 2008, a dewatering dyke was constructed in order to access the north half of the Portage pit in preparation for production in 2010.
Construction of the Bay-Goose dyke, a major dewatering dyke required to access the southern portion of the Portage and the Goose pits, commenced in 2009 and was completed in 2011. Three tailings
impoundment dykes: Saddle Dam 1, Saddle Dam 2 and Stormwater Dyke, were built in 2009 and 2010. The final elevation of Stormwater dyke was completed in 2014. Construction of the main tailings
impoundment dyke, Central Dyke, began in 2012. Additional phases of construction on the Central Dyke are expected to continue throughout the mine life. Construction of the eight-kilometre long access
road to the Vault pit began in 2011 and was completed in 2012.

Mining Methods

Mining at the Meadowbank mine is done by open pit method using excavators and trucks. The ore is extracted conventionally using drilling and blasting, then hauled by trucks to
a primary gyratory crusher adjacent to the mill. The marginal-grade material (material grading under the cut-off grade at a gold price of $1,150 per ounce, but which has the potential to increase the
mineral reserves at the end of the mine life if the metal prices makes its processing economical) is stockpiled separately. Also, stockpiles of low-grade material currently lower than the mill feed
grade have been created. The majority of this low-grade material was processed in 2014. The remainder will be processed at the end of the mine life. Waste rock is hauled to one of three waste storages
areas on the property, used for dyke construction material or backfilled into the mined out area.

Mining
first commenced in the Portage pit in 2010 and in the Goose pit in March 2012, and commercial production at the Vault pit was achieved in April 2014.

Surface Facilities

Plant site facilities include a mill building, a mechanical shop, a generator building, an assay lab and a heavy vehicle maintenance shop. A structure comprised of two separate
crushers flank the main process complex. Power is supplied by a 29-megawatt diesel electric power generation plant with heat recovery and an onsite fuel storage (5.6 million litres) and
distribution system. The mill-service-power complex is connected to the accommodations complex by enclosed corridors. In addition, the Company is building peripheral infrastructure including tailings
and waste impoundment areas. In January 2012, the Company identified naturally occurring asbestos fibres in dust samples taken from the secondary crusher building at the Meadowbank mine and
subsequently found small concentrations of fibres in the ore coming from certain areas of the open pit mines. The Company has instituted additional monitoring and an asbestos management program at
the site.

The
accommodations complex at the Meadowbank mine consists of a permanent camp and a temporary camp to accommodate additional workers. The camp is supported by a sewage treatment, solid waste disposal
and potable water plant. In 2008, the exploration group was relocated eight kilometres south of the minesite location to a separate camp with an 80-person capacity.

Facilities
constructed at Baker Lake include a barge landing site located three kilometres east of the community and a storage compound. A fuel storage and distribution complex with capacity for
60-million litres of diesel fuel and 2-million litres of jet fuel is located next to the barge landing facility.

In
2013, new facilities were built near the Vault deposit, which is located approximately eight kilometres from the mine complex. These facilities include a heated shelter for employees, a storage
area, a fuel farm, an electrical power generation plant and a water treatment plant.

The
process design is based on a conventional gold plant flowsheet consisting of two-stage crushing, grinding, gravity concentration, cyanide leaching and gold recovery in a CIP circuit. The mill is
designed for year-round operation, with a design capacity of 9,800 tonnes per day. Based on projections from metallurgical test work, the overall gold recovery is projected to be approximately
92.8%, with approximately 25% typically recovered in the gravity circuit.

The
different ore zones have slightly different grind sensitivities to gold recovery and, as such, different particle size distributions are recommended as target grinds in the processing. The use of
a slightly coarser grind for ore from the Vault deposit will allow all three of the ore zones to be processed at a consistent process throughput.

The
run-of-mine ore is transported to the crusher using off-road trucks. The ore is dumped into the gyratory crusher or into stockpiles designated by ore-type. The feed from the primary crusher is
conveyed to the cone crusher in closed circuit with a vibrating screen. The crushed ore is delivered to the coarse ore stockpile and ore from the stockpile is conveyed to the

AGNICO EAGLE47ANNUAL INFORMATION FORM

mill.
The grinding circuit is comprised of a primary SAG mill operated in open circuit and a secondary ball mill operated in closed circuit with cyclones. A portion of the cyclone underflow stream is
sent to the concentrator, which separates the heavy minerals from the ore. The grinding circuit incorporates a gravity process to recover free gold and the free gold concentrate is leached in an
intensive cyanide leach-direct electrowinning recovery process.

The
cyclone overflow is sent to the grinding thickener. The clarified overflow is recycled to the grinding circuit and thickened underflow is pumped to a pre-aeration and leach circuit. The cyanide
circuit consists of seven tanks, providing approximately 42 hours of retention time. The leached slurry flows to a train of six CIP tanks. Gold in the solution flowing from the leaching circuit
is adsorbed into the activated carbon. Gold is recovered from the carbon in a Zadra elution circuit and is recovered from the solution using an electrowinning recovery process. The gold sludge is then
poured into dore bars using an electric induction furnace.

The
CIP tailings are treated for the destruction of cyanide using the standard sulphur-dioxide-air process. The detoxified tailings are then pumped to the permanent tailings facility. The tailings
storage is designed for zero discharge, with all process water being reclaimed for re-use in the mill to minimize water requirements.

Production and Mineral Recoveries

During 2014, the Meadowbank mine had payable production of 452,877 ounces of gold from 4,129,143 tonnes of ore grading 3.61 grams of gold per tonne. The
total cash costs at Meadowbank in 2014 per ounce of gold produced was $599 on a by-product basis and $604 on a co-product basis. In 2014, the Meadowbank processing facility averaged
11,312 tonnes of ore per day and operated 95% of available time and gold recovery averaged 94.6%. The minesite costs per tonne at Meadowbank were C$72.39 in 2014.

The
following table sets out the metal recoveries at the Meadowbank mine in 2014. Mill processing exceeded extraction from the mine in 2014; 5,146 tonnes came from the marginal stockpile and
220,013 tonnes from the low-grade stockpile.

|    

Gold production during 2015 at Meadowbank is expected to be approximately 400,000 ounces from 4,120,000 tonnes of ore grading 3.27 grams of
gold per tonne at an estimated total cash costs per ounce of approximately $656 on a by-product basis, with estimated gold recovery of 92.5%. Minesite costs per tonne of approximately C$77 are
expected in 2015.

Environmental Matters (including Inuit Impact and Benefit Agreement)

The development of the Meadowbank mine was subject to an extensive environmental review process under the Nunavut Land Claims Agreement (the "NLCA") administered by the
Nunavut Impact Review Board (the "NIRB"). On December 30, 2006, a predecessor to the Company received the Project Certificate from the NIRB, which included the terms and conditions to
ensure the environmental integrity of the development process. In July 2008, the Company received a water licence from the NWB for construction and operation of the mine subject to additional
terms and conditions. Both authorizations were approved by the then Minister of Aboriginal Affairs and Northern Development Canada.

In
February 2007, a predecessor to the Company and the Nunavut government signed a Development Partnership Agreement (the "DPA") with respect to the Meadowbank mine. The DPA provides a
framework for stakeholders, including the federal and municipal governments and the KIA, to maximize the long-term socio-economic benefits of the Meadowbank mine to Nunavut.

An
Inuit Impact and Benefit Agreement for the Meadowbank mine (the "Meadowbank IIBA") was signed with the KIA in March 2006. This agreement was renegotiated and an amended Meadowbank
IIBA was signed on October 18, 2011. The Meadowbank IIBA ensures that local employment, training and business opportunities arising from all phases of the project are accessible to the Kivalliq
Inuit. The Meadowbank IIBA also outlines the special considerations and compensation that must be provided to the Inuit regarding traditional, social and cultural matters.

The
Company currently holds a renewable exploration lease from the KIA that expires December 31, 2015. In July 2008, the Company signed a production lease for the construction and the
operation of the mine, the mill and all related activities. This production lease was amended on May 2, 2013 to expand the surface area granted under the lease. In April 2008, the
Company and the KIA signed a water compensation agreement for the Meadowbank mine addressing Inuit rights under the Land Claims Agreement respecting compensation for water use and water impacts
associated with the mine.

A
series of four dykes have been built to isolate the mining activities at the Portage and Goose deposits from neighbouring lakes. An additional dyke was built in 2013 to isolate the mining activities
at the Vault deposit. Waste rock from the Portage, Goose and Vault pits is primarily stored in the Portage and Vault rock storage facilities, and a portion of the waste is placed in the Portage Pit.
The control strategy for waste rock storage includes freeze control of the waste rock through permafrost encapsulation and capping with an insulating convective layer of neutralizing rock (ultramafic
and non-acid generating volcanic rocks). The Vault rock storage facility does not require an insulating convective layer due to the non-acid generating nature of the rock in that area. Waste rock
deposited in the Portage pit will be covered with water during the closure phase flooding of the pit which will prevent any acid generation. Because the site is underlain by greater than
400 metres of permafrost, the waste rock below the capping layer is expected to freeze, resulting in low (if any) rates of acid rock drainage generation in the long term.

Tailings
are stored in the dewatered portion of the Second Portage Lake. The tailings are deposited on tailings beaches within a two cell tailings storage facility isolated by the central dyke. A
reclamation pond is located within the tailings storage facility. Deposition of tailings began in the south cell in the fourth quarter of 2014. The control strategy to minimize water infiltration into
the tailings storage facility and the migration of constituents out of the facility includes freeze control of the tailings through permafrost encapsulation and through comprehensive, engineered dyke
liners. A four metre thick dry cover of acid neutralizing ultramafic rock backfill will be placed over the tailings as an insulating convective layer to confine the permafrost active layer within
relatively inert tailings materials.

The
water management objective for the project is to minimize the potential impact on the quality of surface water and groundwater resources at the site. Diversion ditches were constructed in 2012 to
divert clean runoff water away from areas affected by the mine or mining activities. Following a field investigation in 2014, a contact water interception trench was constructed to collect seepage
water downgradient from the mill prior to entering into the nearby lake. All contact water originating from the mine site or mill is intercepted, collected, conveyed to the tailings storage facility
for reuse in process or decanted to treatment for removal of solids (if needed) prior to release to the Third Portage Lake.

An
interim closure and reclamation plan was submitted in 2014 as a requirement of part of the NWB type A water licence and financial assurance was provided and updated. In 2013, the Company
applied to the NWB for an increase in freshwater consumption and received the amendment to the Type A License on July 23, 2014. In 2014, the Meadowbank mine used 95% of the permitted
limit and effectively managed water use according to the revised management plans and amended permit.

In
November 2013, Meadowbank received a compliance direction and is currently under investigation by Environment Canada and Aboriginal Affairs and Northern Development Canada in relation to a
seepage incident that was identified during their July 2013 on-site inspection. Monitoring data in 2014 indicated that the 2013 seepage event did not affect the water quality of the downstream
ponds and Second Portage Lake. This investigation is ongoing.

Capital Expenditures/Development

In 2014, the Company incurred approximately $65.9 million in capital expenditures at the Meadowbank mine, including $22.8 million on Vault pit pre-production and
deferred stripping and $34.9 million on capital and equipment, but excluding capitalized drilling.

In
2015, a total of $52.1 million has been budgeted to be spent at the Meadowbank mine, including $15.4 million on dyke construction, $21 million on deferred stripping and
$15.7 million on capital and equipment, but excluding capitalized drilling. The remaining mine life is currently expected to be three years.

Geology, Mineralization and Exploration

Geology

The Meadowbank mine comprises a number of Archean-age gold deposits hosted within polydeformed volcanic and sedimentary rocks of the Woodburn Lake Group, part of the Western
Churchill supergroup in northern Canada.

AGNICO EAGLE49ANNUAL INFORMATION FORM

---



Three
minable gold deposits, Goose, Portage and Vault, have been discovered along the 25-kilometre long Meadowbank gold trend, and the PDF deposit (a fourth deposit) has been outlined on the
northeast gold trend. These known gold resources are within 225 metres of the surface, making the deposits attractive for open pit mining.

Mineralization

The predominant gold mineralization found in the Portage and Goose deposits is associated with iron sulfides, mainly pyrite and pyrrhotite, which occur as a replacement of
magnetite in the oxide facies iron formation host rock. To a lesser extent, pyrite and chalcopyrite may be found and, on rare occasions, arsenopyrite may be associated with the other sulphides. Gold
is mainly observed in native form (electrum), occurring in isolated specs or as plating around sulfide grains. The ore zones are typically six to seven metres wide, following the contacts
between the iron formation units and the surrounding host rock. Zones extend up to several hundred metres along strike and at depth. The sulphides primarily occur as replacement of the primary
magnetite layers, as well as narrow stringers or bands of disseminated sulphides that almost always crosscut the main foliation and/or bedding which would imply an epigenetic mode of emplacement. The
percentage of sulphides is quite variable and may range from trace to semi-massive amounts over several centimetres to several metres in length. The higher gold grades and the occasional occurrence of
visible gold are almost always associated with greater than 20% sulphide content.

The
main mineralized banded iron formation unit is bounded by an ultramafic unit to the west which locally occurs interlayered with the banded iron formation and to the east by an intermediate to
felsic metavolcaniclastic unit.

In
the Vault deposit, pyrite is the principal ore-bearing sulphide. The disseminated sulphides occur along sheared horizons that have been sericitized and silicified. These zones are several metres
wide and may continue for hundreds of metres along strike and down dip.

Three
of the four known gold deposits have been or are being mined. The Goose and Portage deposits are hosted within highly deformed, magnetite-rich iron formation rocks, while intermediate volcanic
rock assemblages host the majority of the mineralization at the more northerly Vault deposit. The fourth deposit, PDF, shows the same characteristics as Vault, though it is not currently anticipated
to be a mineable deposit.

Defined
over a 1.85-kilometre strike length and across lateral extents ranging from 100 to 230 metres, the geometry of the Portage deposit consists of general north-northwest striking ore zones
that are highly folded. The mineralization in the lower limb of the fold is typically six to eight metres in true thickness, reaching up to 20 metres in the hinge area.

The
Goose deposit is located just south of the Portage deposit and is also associated with iron formation but exhibits different geometry, with a north-south trend and a steep westerly dip.
Mineralized zones typically occur as a single unit near surface, splaying into several limbs at depth. The deposit is currently defined over a 750-metre strike length and down to 500 metres at
depth (mainly in the southern end), with true thicknesses of three to 12 metres (reaching up to 20 metres locally). The Goose underground resource (100 to 500 metres at depth)
extends 700 metres to the south of the Goose pit. The ore zones show the same characteristics as the Goose pit, which is two to five main zones sub-parallel and undulating. The average
thickness rarely exceeds three to five metres.

The
Vault deposit is located seven kilometres northeast of the Portage and Goose deposits. It is planar and shallow-dipping with a defined strike of 1,100 metres. The deposit has been disturbed
by two sets of normal faults striking east-west and north-south and dipping moderately to the southeast and steeply to the east, respectively. The main lens has an average true thickness of eight to
12 metres, reaching as high as 18 metres locally. The hanging wall lenses are typically three to five metres, and up to seven metres, in true thickness.

Exploration

In 2014, proven and probable gold reserves decreased by approximately 583,000 ounces to 1.17 million ounces of gold (11.8 million tonnes of ore grading
3.08 grams per tonne) after mining 479,245 ounces of gold. The net decrease was primarily due to an increased cut-off grade resulting from the lower gold prices in 2014. Measured and
indicated mineral resources at the Meadowbank mine increased by 0.25 million tonnes to 7.5 million tonnes grading 3.30 grams of gold per tonne. This increase was also primarily
due to the decrease in gold price used to estimate the mineral reserves and mineral resources. Inferred mineral resources essentially remained the same.

No
drilling was conducted at the Portage and Goose pits during 2014. In 2015, 1,450 metres of delineation drilling is planned at the Portage pit.

50AGNICO EAGLE
           ANNUAL INFORMATION FORM

---



At
the Vault deposit, 3,069 metres of diamond drilling was done throughout the year to complete the delineation program within the starter pit. An additional 1,660 metres is planned in
2015 to complete the delineation drilling in the Vault pit and test the northwest extension of the Main Zone.

Meliadine Project

The Meliadine project is an advanced exploration property located near the western shore of Hudson Bay in the Kivalliq region of Nunavut, about 25 kilometres north of
the hamlet of Rankin Inlet and 290 kilometres southeast of the Meadowbank mine. The closest major city is Winnipeg, Manitoba, about 1,500 kilometres to the south.

The
Company acquired its 100% interest in the Meliadine project through its acquisition of Comaplex Minerals Corp. in July 2010.

The
mineral reserves and resources of the Meliadine project are estimated at December 31, 2014 to contain proven and probable mineral reserves of 3.34 million ounces of gold in
13.94 million tonnes of ore grading 7.44 grams of gold per tonne. In addition, the project has 20.25 million tonnes of indicated mineral resources grading 5.06 grams of
gold
per tonne and 14.08 million tonnes of inferred mineral resources grading 7.65 grams of gold per tonne at December 31, 2014.

The
Meliadine property is a large land package that is nearly 80 kilometres long. It consists of 111,757 hectares of mineral rights, of which 76,793 hectares are held under the Northwest Territories and Nunavut
Mining Regulationsand administered by Aboriginal Affairs and Northern Development Canada and referred to as Crown
Land. The Crown Land is made up of mining claims covering 25,507 hectares and mineral leases covering 51,286 hectares. There are also 34,964 hectares of subsurface NTI concessions
administered by a division of the Nunavut territorial government. In 2014, C$126,758 was paid to Aboriginal Affairs and Northern Development Canada for the mining lease; NTI requires annual rental
fees of C$63,482 and exploration expenditures of C$268,636.

The
Kivalliq region has an arid arctic climate. The Meliadine property is mainly covered by glacial overburden with the presence of deep-seated permafrost. The property is about 60 metres above
sea level in low-lying topography with numerous lakes. Surface waters are usually frozen by early October and remain frozen until early June. Surface geological work can be carried out from mid-May to
mid-October, while exploration drilling can take place throughout the year, though is reduced in December and January due to cold and darkness.

Equipment,
fuel and dry goods are transported on the annual warm-weather sealift by barge to Rankin Inlet via Hudson Bay. Ocean-going barges from Churchill, Manitoba or eastern Canadian ports can
access the community from late June to early October. Churchill, which is approximately 470 kilometres south of Rankin Inlet, has a deep-water port facility and a year-round rail link to
locations to the south.

In
October 2013 the Company completed construction of a 23.8-kilometre-long all-weather gravel road linking Rankin Inlet with the project site. This road was constructed to support ongoing
exploration activities at the Meliadine project property and significantly reduces the transportation and logistical costs for exploration and development work. Personnel, perishables and lighter
goods arrive at the Rankin Inlet regional airport by commercial or charter airline, from which they can be transported by road directly to the Meliadine project exploration camp. Exploration personnel
for the Meliadine project are mainly sourced from other parts of Canada on a fly-in/fly-out rotation from Montreal and Val d'Or, Quebec and Winnipeg, Manitoba, although there is preferential
employment of qualified people from the Kivalliq region. The hamlet of Rankin Inlet has developed a strong community of entrepreneurs who provide a wide variety of services, such as freight
expediting, equipment supply and outfitting.

Surface Plan of the Meliadine Project (as at December 31, 2014)

GRAPHIC

The
latest planned surface infrastructures are indicated on the surface plan map above and consist of modular structures for the dormitories, kitchen, administration office and tailing dry stacks, as
well as conventional structures for the warehouse, process plant, power plant, metallurgical test lab and mobile maintenance shop. On the surface plan are also indicated the planned mine portals,
ventilation raises, open pits, waste dumps, ore pads, water management structures, attenuation pond and tailings dry stacks. The project is still pending approval; the planned infrastructures
indicated could change during the project approval process.

Surface Facilities

Current facilities at the Meliadine project include the exploration camp located on the shore of Meliadine Lake, approximately 2.3 kilometres east of the Tiriganiaq
deposit. The self-contained camp consists of four wings of trailers that can accommodate up to 200 personnel and includes kitchen facilities, complete with diesel generators.

AGNICO EAGLE53ANNUAL INFORMATION FORM

---



Power
for the exploration camp is currently provided by diesel generators. Potable water for the exploration camp is pumped from Meliadine Lake and water for the underground operations and surface
drill programs is pumped from Pump Lake. The current water licences allow for a maximum daily water use of 589 cubic metres.

The
exploration camp has an incinerator on site to burn all flammable materials, such as camp and food wastes. Incinerator ashes, plastics and metal objects, along with all hazardous solid and liquid
wastes are collected at the Meliadine project site and then transported to a waste management company in southern Canada.

Sewage
has been treated through a Biodisk treatment system since the summer of 2010. Routine water sampling is conducted and reported on a monthly basis to the authorities.

The
decommissioning of the Meliadine East camp on Atulik Lake began during the summer of 2010, and was completed by spring 2011. The core shack and storage building remain at the former
camp site.

An
underground portal allowing access to an exploration ramp was built at the Tiriganiaq deposit in 2007 and 2008 in order to extract a bulk sample for study purposes. A waste rock and ore storage pad
was built during excavation of the ramp and a sampling tower was installed for processing the bulk sample. There is a two-kilometre-long road between the Meliadine project exploration camp and the
portal site. Another underground bulk sample of 4,600 tonnes of ore was taken from the Tiriganiaq deposit via this portal in 2011.

Environmental Matters (including Inuit Impact and Benefit Agreement)

Land and environmental management in the region of the Meliadine project is governed by the provisions of the NLCA. The Meliadine project is located on Inuit-owned land, where
Inuit own both the sub-surface mineral rights (managed by NTI) and the surface land rights (managed by the KIA on behalf of Inuit beneficiaries under the provisions of the NLCA). Consequently, to
explore and develop the project, the Company must obtain land use leases from the KIA. The Company has been granted a commercial lease by KIA for exploration and underground development activity, a
prospecting and land use lease for exploration and development activities, an exploration land use lease for exploration and drilling on the Inuit-owned lands of Meliadine East and a parcel drilling
permit for drilling activity on Inuit-owned lands. A number of right-of-way leases covering road access to the Meliadine project property and esker quarrying on the Inuit-owned lands were also granted
by the KIA.

Pursuant
to the NLCA and theNunavut Waters and Nunavut Surface Rights Tribunal Actrequirements, the Company obtained several water use licenses from
the NWB, covering ongoing water use for its Meliadine project exploration camp, the underground bulk sampling program and for ongoing exploration drilling activities.

In
2011, the Company, together with the KIA, initiated the environmental assessment process for the Meliadine project with the objective of obtaining a project certificate from the Government of
Canada for the construction, operation and ultimate decommissioning of the full project. The project certificate is required before obtaining the permits required to construct, operate and
decommission a gold mine at Meliadine. In May 2011, the KIA referred the Meliadine project to the NIRB for screening under the NLCA. On May 4, 2011, the NIRB received the Meliadine
project proposal from the Company. On June 8, 2011, the NIRB received a positive conformity determination from the Nunavut Planning Commission for the Meliadine project in relation to the
Keewatin Regional Land Use Plan.

In
2011, the NIRB issued a screening decision report to then-Minister of Indian and Northern Affairs Canada (now Minister of Aboriginal Affairs and Northern Development Canada or the
"Minister"), recommending a review and, on September 14, 2011, the Minister referred the Meliadine project proposal to the NIRB for a review of the ecosystemic and socio-economic impacts of the
project. The NIRB finalized terms of reference for this review and the required Environmental Impact Statement ("EIS") in early 2012.

In
April 2013, the Company submitted the draft EIS for the Meliadine project to the NIRB. The Meliadine project underwent technical review by the NIRB and other intervening parties leading to a
pre-hearing conference held by the NIRB in December 2013. In January 2014, the NIRB issued its pre-hearing conference report outlining the items that need to be addressed by the Company
to finalize the final EIS. The Company submitted the final EIS on May 6, 2014 and it was accepted by the NIRB on May 21, 2014. The technical review was completed by July 21, 2014
and the final public hearings were held in Rankin Inlet from August 21-27, 2014. The NIRB approved the project on October 15, 2014 and recommended to the Minister to approve the project.
On January 27, 2015, the Minister approved the environmental assessment findings and recommendations made by the NIRB. The Minister directed the NIRB to issue Agnico Eagle with a Project
Certificate for the Meliadine project setting out the terms and conditions under which the Meliadine project can proceed. These conditions were set out in the NIRB report that was submitted to the
Minister on October 10, 2014. The

54AGNICO EAGLE
           ANNUAL INFORMATION FORM

NIRB
will now convene all of the regulatory agencies for a final workshop which is expected to lead to the issuance of the Project Certificate within the next two months.

The
various licenses, permits and authorizations required to construct, operate and ultimately decommission the project can only be issued once a project certificate is received from the NIRB. These
include the Type A water license from the NWB, a commercial production land use lease from the KIA, authorizations under theFisheries Actfrom
Fisheries and Oceans Canada andNavigable Waters Protection Actauthorizations from Transport Canada.

In
addition to these construction and operating licenses, permits and authorizations, the Company must negotiate an Inuit Impact and Benefit Agreement ("IIBA") for the Meliadine project and an Inuit
water compensation agreement in accordance with the NLCA. The Company initiated negotiations with the KIA on the IIBA in January 2012 and negotiations have continued since then. The Company
anticipates it can reach an agreement with the KIA if it decides to build a mine at Meliadine. The Company and the KIA have discussed the water compensation agreement and will formally initiate these
negotiations once a project certificate has been issued.

Capital Expenditures

Total capital expenditures at the Meliadine project in 2014 were $48.3 million, including capitalized surface and underground drilling, ramp development, permitting,
camp operation and technical studies.

Capital
expenditures of $76.9 million have been budgeted for the Meliadine project in 2015, including $27.1 million for further ramp development, $19.7 million for early
construction activities, $7.6 million for continued permitting and $4.8 million for the continuation of technical studies. No diamond drilling is planned in 2015.

Development

In 2013, ice was removed and ground support was upgraded at the existing exploration ramp at the Tiriganiaq deposit in preparation for resumed development. Some infrastructure
was upgraded: dome No.1 (mechanical garage) was refurbished; dome No.3 (cold storage) was built; and a permanent steel portal was erected. The capital cost for the ramp development in 2013 was
$9.4 million.

Underground
development resumed in 2014 with 1,363 metres of tunnel excavated to a depth of 225 metres below the surface. The main objective of this development program is to extend the
ramp to 300 metres below the surface in order to proceed with cost effective conversion drilling of deeper inferred mineral resources as mineral resources below 300 metres are difficult
to convert from the surface. In order to provide ventilation to the ramp, three sections of ventilation raise were excavated from the surface to Level 200.

The
development program will continue in 2015, with the objective of establishing a conversion drilling platform at Level 300.

Geology, Mineralization and Exploration

Geology and Mineralization

Archean volcanic and sedimentary rocks of the Meliadine greenstone belt underlie the property, which is mainly covered by glacial overburden with deep-seated permafrost and is
part of the Western Churchill supergroup in northern Canada. The rock layers have been folded, sheared and metamorphosed, and have been truncated by the Pyke Fault, a regional structure that extends
the entire 80-kilometre length of the large property.

The
Pyke Fault appears to control gold mineralization on the Meliadine project property. At the southern edge of the fault is a series of oxide iron formations that host the seven Meliadine project
deposits currently known. The deposits consist of multiple lodes of mesothermal quartz-vein stockworks, laminated veins and sulphidized iron formation mineralization with strike lengths of up to three
kilometres. The Upper Oxide iron formation hosts the Tiriganiaq and Wolf North zones. The two Lower Lean iron formations contain the F Zone, Pump, Wolf Main and Wesmeg deposits. The Normeg zone
was discovered in 2011 on the eastern end of the Wesmeg zone, near Tiriganiaq. The Wolf (North and Main), F Zone, Pump and Wesmeg/Normeg deposits are all within five kilometres of Tiriganiaq.
The Discovery deposit is 17 kilometres east southeast of Tiriganiaq and is hosted by the Upper Oxide iron formation. Each of these deposits has mineralization within 120 metres of
surface, making them potentially mineable by open pit methods. They also have deeper ore that could potentially be mined with underground methods, which are currently being considered in various
studies.

Two
bulk samples have been extracted from the exploration ramp. The results confirmed the resource estimation model that has been developed for the two principal zones (Zones 1000 and 1100) at
Tiriganiaq, and indicated approximately

more gold than had been predicted by the block model for these areas. The 2011 bulk sample program also confirmed the previous assessment of the Company's block model in terms of grade continuity,
consistency and distribution, and the evaluation of related mining properties through geological mapping, underground chip, channel and muck sampling, and geotechnical observations.

Exploration

Proven and probable gold reserves at Meliadine increased in 2014 by approximately 494,000 ounces to 3.34 million ounces of gold (13.9 million tonnes of ore
grading 7.44 grams per tonne). Indicated mineral resources at Meliadine increased by 1.3 million tonnes of ore to 20.2 million tonnes of ore grading 5.06 grams of gold per
tonne. Inferred mineral resources increased by 2.4 million tonnes of ore to 14.1 million tonnes of ore grading 7.65 grams of gold per tonne. The increases in mineral reserves,
indicated mineral resources and inferred mineral resources were primarily due to changes in modeling parameters implemented to better reconcile with the two previous bulk samples, as well as the use
of lower costs established in recent studies.

In
2014, the Company spent C$9.4 million on 122 diamond drill holes (32,116 metres) at Meliadine. This included C$2.1 million on 37 holes (6,969 metres) of
conversion drilling, C$5.9 million on 55 holes (19,798 metres) of exploration drilling around the known deposits (Tiriganiaq, Wesmeg/Normeg, Wolf, Pump and Discovery) and
C$0.6 million on 15 holes (2,032 metres) of exploration drilling on regional targets. Also in 2014, C$0.9 million was spent on 15 holes (3,317 metres) of
underground delineation drilling at the Tiriganiaq deposit.

An
updated technical study completed in January 2015 has confirmed the economic viability of the Meliadine project with a nine-year mine life at an operating rate of 3,000 tonnes per day
in years one to three, and 5,000 tonnes per day in years four to nine. Various potential scenarios are being evaluated before the Company can determine whether to build a mine
at Meliadine.

The
2015 plan includes approximately $21 million on 2,500 metres of underground development of the exploration ramp. This development will allow for cost-effective exploration and
conversion drilling of the deeper parts of the Tiriganiaq and Wesmeg/Normeg zones, and help to optimize potential mining plans.

Pinos Altos Mine

The Pinos Altos mine achieved commercial production in November 2009. It is located on an 11,000 hectare property in the Sierra Madre gold belt,
285 kilometres west of the City of Chihuahua in the State of Chihuahua in northern Mexico. At December 31, 2014, the Pinos Altos mine was estimated to contain proven and probable mineral
reserves of 1.76 million ounces of gold and 46.7 million ounces of silver comprised of 18.2 million tonnes of ore grading 3.01 grams of gold per tonne and 80 grams
of silver per tonne. The Creston Mascota deposit at Pinos Altos achieved commercial production in the first quarter of 2011. At December 31, 2014, the Creston Mascota deposit was estimated to
contain additional proven and probable mineral reserves of 0.24 million ounces of gold and 2.5 million ounces of silver comprised of 5.8 million tonnes of ore grading
1.25 grams of gold per tonne and 13 grams of silver per tonne. The combined total of proven and probable mineral reserves at Pinos Altos and Creston Mascota as of December 31,
2014 was estimated to contain 2.00 million ounces of gold and 49.2 million ounces of silver comprised of 24.1 million tonnes of ore grading 2.58 grams of gold per tonne and
64 grams of silver per tonne. The Pinos Altos property is made up of two blocks: the Agnico Eagle Mexico Concessions (22 concessions, 26,810.2 hectares) and the Pinos Altos
Concessions (18 concessions, 5,053.1 hectares).

Approximately
54% of the current Pinos Altos mineral reserves and resources, including Creston Mascota, are subject to a net smelter return royalty of 3.5% payable to Pinos Altos
Explotación y Exploración S.A. de C.V. ("PAEyE") and the remaining 46% of the current mineral reserves and resources at Pinos Altos are subject to a 2.5% net
smelter return royalty payable to the Servicio Geológico Mexicano, a Mexican Federal Government agency. After 2029, this portion of the property will also be subject to a 3.5% net
smelter return royalty payable to PAEyE.

The
assets acquired by the Company from PAEyE and the Asociación de Pequeños Propietarios Forestales de Pinos Altos S de R.L. in 2006 included the right to use up to
400 hectares of land for mining installations for a period of 20 years after formal mining operations have been initiated. The Company also obtained sole ownership of the Agnico Eagle
Mexico Concessions previously owned by Compania Minera La Parreña S.A. de C.V. During 2008, the Company and PAEyE entered into an agreement under which the Company
acquired further surface rights for open pit mining operations and additional facilities. Infrastructure payments, surface rights payments and advance royalty payments totaling $35.5 million
were made to PAEyE and the Asociación de Pequeños Propietarios Forestales de Pinos Altos S de R.L. in 2009 as a result of this agreement.

In
2006, the Company concluded negotiations with communal land owners (ejidos) and others for the purchase of 5,745 hectares of land contained within the Agnico Eagle Mexico and Pinos Altos
Concessions. In addition, a temporary occupation agreement with a 30-year term expiring in 2036 was negotiated with ejido Jesus del Monte for 1,470 hectares of land covered by these same
concession blocks. The acquisition of these surface rights for the geologically prospective lands within the district surrounding the Pinos Altos property will facilitate future exploration and mining
development in these areas.

The
Pinos Altos mine is directly accessible by a paved interstate highway that links the cities of Chihuahua and Hermosillo and is connected to a state power grid that is within ten kilometres of the
Pinos Altos property. The Company anticipates existing and planned underground mine workings will intercept water resources sufficient to sustain the requirements for future operation. The land
position is sufficient for construction of all planned surface, infrastructure and mining facilities at the Pinos Altos mine (including the Creston Mascota deposit), including its tailings impoundment
area. The Company further believes that a sufficient local and trained workforce is available in northern Mexico to continue to support the operation of the mine.

The
Pinos Altos property is characterized by moderate to rough terrain with mixed forest (pine and oak) and altitudes that vary from 1,770 metres to 2,490 metres above sea level. The
climate is sub-humid, with about one metre of annual precipitation. The average annual temperature is 18.3 degrees Celsius. Exploration and mining work can be carried out year-round.

In
August 2007, on the basis of an independently reviewed feasibility study, the Company approved construction of a mine at Pinos Altos. The mine achieved commercial production in
November 2009.

Based
on a feasibility study prepared in 2009, the Company decided to build a stand-alone heap leach operation at the Creston Mascota deposit at Pinos Altos. The first gold pour from the Creston
Mascota deposit occurred on December 28, 2010 and commercial production from the Creston Mascota deposit was achieved in the first quarter of 2011.

The
Company continues to evaluate opportunities to develop other mineral resources that have been identified in the Pinos Altos area as satellite operations.

The
Company has engaged the local communities in the area with hiring, local contracts, education support and medical support programs to ensure that the mine provides long-term benefits to the
residents living and working in the region. Approximately 69% of the operating workforce at Pinos Altos are locally hired and 100% of the permanent workforce at the Company operations in Mexico are
Mexican nationals.

Surface Plan of the Creston Mascota Deposit at Pinos Altos (as at December 31, 2014)

GRAPHIC

Milling
operations during 2014 at Pinos Altos processed an average of 5,350 tonnes of ore per day as compared to the original design rate of 4,000 tonnes per day. The underground mine at
Pinos Altos produced an average 2,825 tonnes of ore per day as compared to its designed rate of 3,000 tonnes per day. The open pit mines at Pinos Altos and the Creston Mascota deposit
produced 21.7 million tonnes of ore, overburden and waste in 2014, which was in accordance with the mine plan for the year.

Mining Methods

The surface operations at the Pinos Altos mine use traditional open pit mining techniques with bench heights of seven metres and double benches on the footwall and single
benching on the hanging wall. Mining is accomplished with front end loaders, trucks, track drills and various support equipment. Based upon geotechnical evaluations, the final pit slopes vary between
45 degrees and 50 degrees. Performance at the open pit mining operation at Pinos Altos during 2014 continues to indicate that the equipment, mining methods and personnel selected for the
project are satisfactory for future production phases. 12.2 million tonnes of ore, overburden and waste were mined during 2014, which was in accordance with the mine plan for the year.

The
underground mine, which commenced operations in the second quarter of 2010, uses the long hole sublevel stoping method to extract the ore. The stope height is 30 metres and the stope width
is 15 metres. Ore is hauled to the surface utilizing underground trucks via a ramp system. The paste backfill system and ventilation system were commissioned in the fourth quarter of 2010.
During 2014, approximately 1.0 million tonnes of ore were produced from the underground portion of the mine, averaging 2,825 tonnes per day. Currently, the planned capacity of the
underground mine is 3,000 tonnes of ore per day. Construction of a shaft hoisting facility to increase the mining capacity to 4,500 tonnes of ore per day was initiated in 2012, with
commissioning expected to be completed in 2016. The shaft hoisting capacity should reduce the need for additional underground trucks required as the mine depth increases and is expected to continue to
maintain mill feed rates at 4,500 tonnes of ore per day in future years as the open pit mines at Pinos Altos become depleted. Approximately 21 kilometres of total lateral development
have been completed as of December 31, 2014.

Surface Facilities

The principal mineral processing facilities at the Pinos Altos mine were designed to process 4,000 tonnes of ore per day in a conventional process plant circuit which
includes single stage crushing, grinding in a SAG and ball mill in closed loop, gravity separation followed by agitated leaching, counter-current decantation and metals recovery in the Merrill-Crowe
process. Tailings are detoxified and filtered and then used for paste backfill in the underground mine or deposited as dry tailings in an engineered tailings impoundment area. The Pinos Altos mill
processed an average of 5,350 tonnes of ore per day during 2014. Low grade ore at Pinos Altos is processed in a heap leach system designed to accommodate approximately five million tonnes of
mineralized material over the life of the project. The production from heap leach operations is expected to be relatively minor, contributing about 1% of total metal production planned for the
remaining life of the mine (not including production from the Creston Mascota heap leach operation).

Other
surface facilities at the Pinos Altos mine include: a headframe and hoist room, a heap leach pad, pond, liner and pumping system; administrative support offices; camp facilities; a laboratory; a
process plant shop; a maintenance shop; a power generating station; surface power transmission lines and substations; the engineered tailings management system; and a warehouse.

As
noted above, a separate heap leach operation and ancillary support facilities were built at the Creston Mascota deposit, which is designed to process approximately 4,000 tonnes of ore per
day in a three stage crushing, agglomeration and heap leach circuit with carbon adsorption. This project was commissioned in the latter part of 2010, with commercial production achieved in the first
quarter of 2011. During 2014, a total of 1.8 million tonnes of ore was mined from the Creston Mascota deposit, averaging 4,900 tonnes per day. Based on performance of the mine and
process facilities at the Creston Mascota deposit to date, the equipment, mining methods and personnel are satisfactory for completion of the planned production phases. The Creston Mascota deposit is
expected to produce approximately 47,500 ounces of gold per year in 2015.

Over
the life of the mine, recoveries of gold and silver in the milling circuit at Pinos Altos (other than from the Creston Mascota deposit) are expected to average approximately 93% and 43%,
respectively. The Company anticipates precious metals recovery from low grade ore processed in the Pinos Altos heap leach facility will average 68% for gold and 12% for silver. Heap leach recoveries
for ore from the Creston Mascota deposit are expected to average 63% for gold and 8% for silver.

Production and Mineral Recoveries

During 2014, the Pinos Altos mine, including the Creston Mascota deposit, had total payable production of 218,878 ounces of gold and approximately 1.8 million

tonne, at an estimated total cash costs per ounce of gold of
approximately $559 on a by-product basis, with estimated gold recovery of 57% and silver recovery of 8%. Minesite costs per tonne of approximately $14 for Creston Mascota heap leach ore are expected
in 2015.

Environmental Matters

The Pinos Altos mine has received the necessary permit authorizations for construction and operation of a mine, including a Change of Land Use permit and an Environmental
Impact Study approval from the Mexican environmental agency. As of December 31, 2014, all permits necessary for the operation of the Pinos Altos mine, including the operations at the Creston
Mascota deposit, had been received. Pinos Altos uses the dry stack tailings technology to minimize the geotechnical and environmental risk that can be associated with the rainfall intensities and
topographic relief in the Sierra Madre region of Mexico.

Following
an audit process by an independent third party, the operations at both the Pinos Altos mine and the Creston Mascota deposit have received the "Industria Limpia" certification from the
Mexican environmental authorities. This certification is based on compliance with environmental requirements.

Capital Expenditures

Combined capital expenditures at the Pinos Altos and Creston Mascota deposit during 2014 were approximately $59.2 million, excluding capitalized drilling. Combined
capital expenditures included sustaining capital for development underground, project capital expenses for the Pinos Altos shaft project and the expansion of the heap leach pad at the Creston
Mascota deposit.

In
2015, the Company expects capital expenditures at Pinos Altos, including the Creston Mascota deposit, to be approximately $104.0 million, excluding capitalized drilling. Capital expenditures
in 2015 are primarily being used for underground mine development, shaft construction, tailings expansion and the development of the Phase IV leach pad at the Creston Mascota deposit.

Development

As of December 31, 2014, for the mine life to date, more than 118 million tonnes of ore, overburden and waste had been removed from the open pit mine at Pinos
Altos and approximately 23 kilometres of lateral development had been completed in the underground mine. At the Creston Mascota deposit, approximately 34.9 million tonnes of ore,
overburden, and waste had been removed from the open pit mine as of December 31, 2014.

Geology, Mineralization and Exploration

Geology

The Pinos Altos mine is in the northern part of the Sierra Madre geologic province, on the northeast margin of the Ocampo Caldera, which hosts many epithermal gold and silver
occurrences, including the nearby Ocampo and Moris mines.

The
property is underlain by Tertiary-age (less than 45 million years old) volcanic and intrusive rocks that have been disturbed by faulting. The volcanic rocks belong to the lower volcanic
complex and the discordant overlying upper volcanic supergroup. The lower volcanic complex is represented on the property by the Navosaigame conglomerates (including thinly-bedded sandstone and
siltstone) and the El Madrono volcanics (felsic tuffs and lavas intercalated with rhyolitic tuffs, sandy volcanoclastics and sediments). The upper volcanic group is made up of the Victoria
ignimbrites (explosive felsic volcanics), the Frijolar andesites (massive to flow-banded, porphyritic flows) and the Buenavista ignimbrites (dacitic to rhyolitic pyroclastics).

Intermediate
and felsic dykes as well as rhyolitic domes intrude all of these units. The Santo Nino andesite is a dyke that intrudes along the Santo Nino fault zone.

Structure
on the property is dominated by a ten-kilometre by three-kilometre horst, a fault-uplifted block structure oriented west-northwest, that is bounded on the south by the south-dipping Santo
Nino fault and on the north by the north-dipping Reyna de Plata fault. Quartz-gold vein deposits are emplaced along these faults and along transfer faults that splay outwards from the Santo
Nino fault.

Mineralization

Gold and silver mineralization at the Pinos Altos mine consists of low sulphidation type epithermal-type hydrothermal veins, breccias and bodies. The Santo Nino structure
outcrops over a distance of roughly six kilometres. It strikes at 60 degrees azimuth on its eastern portion and turns to strike roughly 90 degrees azimuth on its western fringe. The
structure dips at 70 degrees towards the south. The four mineralized sectors hosted by the Santo Nino structure consist of discontinuous quartz rich lenses named from east to west:
El Apache, Oberon de Weber, Santo Nino and Cerro Colorado.

The
El Apache lens is the most weakly mineralized. The area hosts a weakly developed white quartz dominated breccia. Gold values are low and erratic over its roughly 750 metre strike
length. Past drilling suggests that this zone is of limited extent at depth.

The
Oberon de Weber lens has been followed on surface and by diamond drilling over an extent of roughly 500 metres. Shallow holes drilled by the Company show good continuity both in terms of
grade and thickness over roughly 550 metres. From the previous drilling done by Penoles, continuity at depth appears to be erratic with a weakly defined western rake.

The
Santo Nino lens is the most vertically extensive of these lenses. It has been traced to a depth of approximately 750 metres below the surface. The vein is followed continuously on surface
over a distance of 550 metres and discontinuously up to 650 metres. Beyond its western and eastern extents, the Santo Nino andesite is massive and only weakly altered. Gold grades found
are systematically associated with green quartz brecciated andesite.

The
Cerro Colorado lens is structurally more complex than the three described above. Near the surface, it is marked by a complex superposition of brittle faults with mineralized zones which are
difficult to correlate from hole to hole. Its relation to the Santo Nino fault zone is not clearly defined. Two deeper holes drilled by the Company suggest better grade continuity is possible
at depth.

The
San Eligio zone is located approximately 250 metres north of Santo Nino. The host rock is brecciated Victoria Ignimbrite, occasionally with a stockwork style of mineralization. There is no
andesite in this sector. Unlike the other lenses, the San Eligio lens dips towards the north. The lateral extent of the zone seems to be continuous for 950 metres. Its average width is five
metres and never exceeds 15 metres. Surface mapping and prospecting has suggested that there is good potential for additional mineralization on strike and at depths below 150 metres.
Visible gold has been seen in the drill core.

The
Creston Mascota deposit is seven kilometres northwest of the Santo Nino deposit, and is similar, but dips shallowly to the west. The Creston Mascota deposit is about 1,000 metres long and 4
to 40 metres wide, and extends from surface to more than 200 metres depth.

Several
other promising zones are associated with the horst feature in the northwest part of the property. The Cubiro deposit is a near-surface deposit located two kilometres west of the Creston
Mascota deposit. Cubiro is a surface deposit that strikes northwest, has a steep dip and has been followed along strike for approximately 850 metres. Drilling has

intersected
significant gold and silver mineralization up to 30 metres in width. The Cubiro deposit is split by a fault that resulted in 200 metres of displacement to the west, as
defined by drilling to date. The zone is still open to the southeast and possibly at depth.

The
Sinter zone is 1,500 metres north-northeast of the Santo Nino zone and is part of the Reyna de Plata gold structure. The steeply dipping mineralization ranges from four to 35 metres
in width and almost 900 metres long, with over 350 metres of vertical depth. Sinter is being evaluated for its open pit mining and heap leach potential.

Other
identified mineral resources in the Pinos Altos region include the Bravo and Carola zones adjacent to the Creston Mascota deposit and the Reyna de la Plata prospect further to the east.
Exploration efforts will be allocated to these zones as development continues at Pinos Altos and the Creston Mascota deposit.

Exploration

In 2014, proven and probable mineral reserves at Pinos Altos (excluding Creston Mascota) decreased by approximately 211,000 ounces of gold and 9.56 million ounces
of silver to 1.76 million ounces of gold and 46.68 million ounces of silver (18.2 million tonnes of ore grading 3.01 grams of gold per tonne and 79.65 grams of
silver per tonne) after mining 179,977 ounces of gold and 4.67 million ounces of silver. The net decrease was a result of using a higher cut-off grade (necessitated by a lower gold price
assumption) for the mineral reserves estimation. The reserve grade increased 6% from 2.84 grams of gold per tonne to 3.01 grams of gold per tonne. Indicated mineral resources at Pinos
Altos increased by 0.4 million tonnes of ore to 11.9 million tonnes of ore grading 1.84 grams of gold per tonne and 44.14 grams of silver per tonne due to a more
conservative approach at the Cerro Colorado, Oberon de Weber and Sinter deposits. Inferred mineral resources declined to 12.6 million tonnes of ore grading 1.22 grams of gold per tonne
and 26.82 grams of silver per tonne.

In
2014, proven and probable mineral reserves at the Creston Mascota deposit decreased by approximately 56,000 ounces of gold and 0.59 million ounces of silver to 0.24 million
ounces of gold and 2.53 million ounces of silver (5.8 million tonnes of ore grading 1.25 grams of gold per tonne and 13.47 grams of silver per tonne) after mining
74,972 ounces of gold and 2.43 million ounces of silver. The net decrease was a result of using a lower gold price assumption for the mineral reserves estimation. Indicated mineral
resources at the Creston Mascota deposit decreased by 0.2 million tonnes of ore to 2.2 million tonnes of ore grading 0.68 grams of gold per tonne and 4.69 grams of silver
per tonne due to wireframe modifications and reclassification of some indicated mineral resources to probable mineral reserves. The inferred mineral resources at the Creston Mascota deposit declined
to 4.5 million tonnes of ore grading 1.07 grams of gold per tonne and 13.98 grams of silver per tonne. Drilling and evaluation will continue in 2015.

In
2014, minesite exploration activities were primarily focused on conversion, infill and exploration of the mineral resources at the San Eligio, Creston Mascota, Sinter, Oberon de Weber, Cubiro and
Cerro Colorado deposits. A total of 1,412 metres of minesite exploration drilling and 7,149 metres of definition (conversion) drilling were completed during the year.

In
2015, the Company expects to spend approximately $6 million on exploration at the Pinos Altos mine and the Creston Mascota deposit, including $3.3 million on 13,000 metres of
conversion drilling and $2.7 million on 11,000 metres of exploration drilling.

La India Mine

Construction began at La India in September 2012 and commercial production was achieved on February 1, 2014. At December 31, 2014, the
La India mine was estimated to contain proven and probable mineral reserves of 0.68 million ounces of gold comprised of 24.9 million tonnes of ore grading 0.85 grams of
gold per tonne.

The
La India property consists of 36 100% owned and 18 optioned mining concessions, totaling approximately 60,793 hectares in the Mulatos Gold Belt in Sonora, Mexico.
The La India property includes the Tarachi deposit and several other prospective targets in the Mulatos Gold Belt. At the Tarachi deposit, indicated resources are 47.2 million tonnes
grading 0.39 grams of gold per tonne and inferred resources are 81.7 million tonnes grading 0.36 grams of gold per tonne. A preliminary metallurgical testing program on Tarachi
composite samples has been completed and negotiations for land access are ongoing.

Mulatos Gold Belt is part of the Sierra Madre gold and silver belt that also hosts the operating Mulatos gold mine immediately southeast of the La India property and the Pinos Altos mine
and the Creston Mascota deposit 70 kilometres to the southeast.

The
La India mine is located in the municipality of Sahuaripa, southeastern Sonora State, between the small rural towns of Tarachi and Matarachi, which offer basic infrastructure in the form of
roads, rural telephone service, small grocery stores and unpaved air strips. More services are available in the town of Sahuaripa located 60 kilometres by gravel road (approximately
2.5 hours) northwest of the La India mine. The population of the district is estimated to be a few thousand, with most of the inhabitants involved in cattle ranching, farming, forestry,
mining and exploration. An adequate supply of labour for mining operations can be drawn from the region. Trained exploration personnel for the La India mine are mainly sourced from northern
Mexico, including Hermosillo, Sonora.

The
closest major city with an international airport is Hermosillo, the capital of Sonora, located 210 kilometres west-northwest of the La India mine. Road travel from Hermosillo to the
site takes approximately seven hours.
Alternatively, the mine can be accessed by small aircraft. The power supply at the La India mine is provided by diesel generators.

The
Company acquired the La India property in November 2011 as part of its acquisition of Grayd. Grayd had explored the property since 2004 and had prepared a preliminary economic
assessment of the project in December 2010 based on a June 2010 NI 43-101-compliant resource estimate.

The
climate at La India is semi-arid with seasonal temperatures ranging from 35 degrees Celsius to minus two degrees Celsius, and heavy rainfall from July to September. Mining activities
may be conducted year round.

Infill
drilling at La India from November 2011 to May 2012 allowed the Company to confirm and expand the mineral resources reported in the December 2010 preliminary
economic assessment. In September 2012, following the completion of a feasibility study, the Company approved the construction of a mine at La India. The mine achieved commercial
production in February 2014. The Company continues to evaluate opportunities to develop other mineral resources that have been identified in the La India area.

The
Company has engaged the local communities in the area with hiring, local contracts, education support and medical support programs to ensure that the La India mine provides long term
benefits to the residents living and working in the region. Approximately 22% of the operating workforce at La India is locally hired and 100% of the permanent workforce are Mexican nationals.

At
the Tarachi deposit, the surface rights in the project area are owned by the Tarachi Ejido (agrarian community) and private parties. All measured, indicated and inferred project resources lie
within privately owned or ejido possessed land. Surface access lease agreements have been executed with the property owners or possessors for approximately 50% of the identified target areas. The
existing agreements permit exploration and drilling activities; if mining activity is contemplated in this exploration area the Company will be required to negotiate further to acquire the surface
rights needed for project development.

Mining and Milling Facilities

Mining Methods

Operations at the La India mine use traditional open pit mining techniques with bench heights of six metres and utilize front end loaders, trucks, track drills and
various support equipment. Based upon geotechnical evaluations, the final pit slopes vary between 45 degrees and 50 degrees.

Surface
facilities at the La India mine include a three-stage ore crushing facility, a 50 million tonne capacity lined heap leach pad with process ponds and pumping system, a carbon
adsorption plant, a laboratory, a process plant shop, a mining equipment maintenance shop, a generated power station, surface power transmission lines and substations, a warehouse, administrative
support offices and camp facilities. The power for the facilities is supplied by diesel generators and water is supplied by a system of wells and catchment facilities. Septic discharges are managed in
their respective leach fields. Non-organic waste from the camp is disposed in the Matarachi Ejido landfill.

Production and Mineral Recoveries

For the brief pre-production period at the beginning of 2014, the La India mine had payable production of 3,492 ounces of gold from approximately
275,000 tonnes of ore stacked on the heap leach pad grading 0.96 grams of gold per tonne. Following commercial production, 4,498,000 tonnes of ore was processed and placed on the
heap leach pad at La India in 2014, with an average grade of 1.05 grams of gold per tonne. The total cash costs at La India in 2014 per ounce of gold produced was $487 on a
by-product basis and $532 on a co-product basis. Stacking rates averaged 13,100 tonnes of ore per day. The minesite costs per tonne at La India were $8 in 2014.

The
cumulative recovery for gold on the heap leach pad at La India is approximately 46.5%. Heap leach recovery is following the expected cumulative recovery curve and it is anticipated that the
ultimate gold recovery of 77% will be achieved when leaching is completed.

The
following table sets out the metal recoveries at La India in 2014.

|                                               

Gold production during 2015 at the La India mine is expected to be approximately 90,000 ounces from 5.4 million tonnes of ore grading
0.86 grams of gold per tonne, at an estimated total cash costs per ounce of approximately
$491 on a by-product basis, with estimated cumulative gold recovery of 61%. Minesite costs of per tonne approximately $9 are expected in 2015.

Environmental Matters

The La India mine is not located in an area with a special federal environmental protection designation. As of December 31, 2014, all permits necessary for the
operation of the La India mine had been received.

Capital Expenditures

Capital expenditures at the La India mine during 2014 were approximately $22.7 million, excluding capitalized drilling, which was spent on crusher optimization
and general sustaining activities. The Company expects capital expenditures to be approximately $25 million in 2015, excluding capitalized drilling. The capital expenditures in 2015 are to be
used for extending the haul road and development of the Phase II leach pad.

Development

As of December 31, 2014, for the mine life to date, more than 11.7 million tonnes of ore, overburden and waste had been removed from the open pit mine at
La India.

Agreements & Licences

The mining concessions for the La India mine and Tarachi deposit are controlled by an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company by means of direct ownership and
by five separate agreements whereby the Company can earn a 100% interest in certain concessions by making cash and share payments. Payment has been made in full for the claims that host all of the
measured, indicated and inferred resources. Some concessions are subject to underlying net smelter return royalties varying between 1% and 3%, certain of which may be purchased by the Company which
would result in net smelter return royalties of up to 2% remaining.

AGNICO EAGLE67ANNUAL INFORMATION FORM

For
the Tarachi deposit, payments totaling $0.75 million and shares with value equivalent to $967,500 over a six year period are required for the Company to earn a 100% interest in the relevant
concessions. To date, $0.3 million has
been paid toward these concessions and no shares have been issued. Some concessions are subject to an underlying net smelter return royalty of 2%, some of which may be purchased by the Company, which
would result in net smelter return royalties of up to 1% remaining.

The
defined mineral reserve and resource and all lands required for infrastructure for the La India mine are wholly-contained within three privately-held properties which the Company has
acquired in order to permit exploration, construction and mine development activities.

Geology, Mineralization and Exploration

Geology and Mineralization

The La India mine lies within the Sierra Madre Occidental ("SMO") province, an extensive Eocene to Miocene volcanic field extending from the United States-Mexico
border to central Mexico. The La India mine lies within the western limits of the SMO in an area dominated by outcrops of andesite and dacitic tuffs, overlain by rhyolites and rhyolitic tuffs
that were affected by large-scale north-northwest-striking normal faults and intruded by granodiorite and diorite stocks. Incised fluvial canyons cut the uppermost strata and expose the Lower Series
volcanic strata.

The
mine area is predominantly underlain by a volcanic sequence comprised of andesitic and felsic extrusive volcanic strata with interbedded epiclastic strata of similar composition. The mineral
occurrences present in the mine area, and the deposit type being sought, are volcanic-hosted high-sulphidation epithermalhydrothermal gold silver and porphyry-related gold deposits. Such deposits may
be present as veins and/or disseminated deposits and/or breccias. The La India mine deposit area is one of several high-sulphidation epithermal mineralization centres recognized in
the region.

Epithermal
high-sulphidation mineralization at the La India mine developed as a cluster of gold zones (Main and North) aligned north-south within a spatially related zone of hydrothermal
alteration in excess of 20 square kilometres in area. Gold mineralization is confined to the Late Eocene rocks within zones of intermediate and advanced argillitic alteration originally
containing sulphides, and subsequently oxidized by supergene processes. The North and Main zones are within two kilometres of each other.

Surface
outcrop mapping and drill-hole data so far indicate that the gold system at the Tarachi deposit is likely best classified as a gold porphyry deposit.

Exploration

In 2014, proven and probable mineral reserves at La India decreased by approximately 86,000 ounces of gold to 0.68 million ounces of gold (24.9 million
tonnes of ore grading 0.85 grams of gold per tonne) after mining 150,392 ounces of gold. The net reduction was a result of production, a higher cut-off grade and a lower gold price.
Measured and indicated mineral resources at the La India mine decreased by 1.8 million tonnes of ore to 54.5 million tonnes of ore grading 0.39 grams of gold per tonne, largely
due to a new ore wireframe interpretation and a higher cut-off grade. Inferred mineral resources increased in 2014 to 82.6 million tonnes of ore grading 0.37 grams of gold per tonne.

In
2014, the Company completed 26,546 metres of drilling through 365 diamond drill holes at the La India mine. This included 13,618 metres of minesite exploration drilling
at a cost of $1.4 million at the Main zone and 12,928 metres of definition (conversion) drilling at a cost of $3.9 million at the North, Main and La India zones. In 2014,
there was also exploration drilling of 11,032 metres through 71 diamond and reverse circulation drill holes at the Arroyo Hondo, Cordon de Viruela, Tarachi, Chivitas, San
Javier, El Jabali, and La Julianna targets and mapping and sampling at the Arroyo Honda, Tarachi, La Jabali and La Julianna areas at a cost of $5.9 million.

The
Company expects to spend approximately $3.0 million on 11,000 metres of conversion drilling and $3.8 million on 13,000 metres of exploration drilling at the
La India mine in 2015. An additional $1.4 million is planned for 2,500 metres of exploration drilling in the Tarachi region in 2015 and focused in the
La Jabali area.

Regional Exploration Activities

During 2014, the Company continued to actively explore in Quebec, Nunavut, Nevada, Finland, Sweden and Mexico. The Canadian exploration activities were focused on the Amaruq
(formerly IVR) and Meliadine properties in Nunavut as well as on the Goldex, Akasaba West, Lapa and Perron properties in Quebec. In the United States, exploration activities during 2014 were
concentrated on the West Pequop and Summit projects located in northeast Nevada. In Mexico, regional

exploration
was focused on the La India property. In Finland, regional exploration was focused to the north of the Kittila mine along the Kiistala fault, and on the Hanhimaa property immediately west
of the Kittila mine property. In southern Sweden, the Company explored the Solvik project. Canadian Malartic Corporation focused exploration on the Upper Beaver project near Kirkland Lake, Ontario, as
well as the Pandora property adjacent to the Lapa mine in Quebec. At the LaRonde, Goldex, Lapa, Meadowbank, Kittila, Pinos Altos (including the Creston Mascota deposit) and La India mines, and the
Canadian Malartic mine, the Company continued exploration programs around the mines. Most of the exploration budget was spent on drilling programs near the mine infrastructure along previously
recognized gold trends.

At
the end of 2014, the Company's land holdings in Canada consisted of 72 projects comprised of 3,935 mineral titles covering an aggregate of 390,758 hectares (of this
total in Canada, nine projects comprised of 1,831 mineral titles covering an aggregate of 73,258 hectares are held as a 50% interest with Yamana, including the Canadian Malartic mine).
Land holdings in the United States consisted of five properties comprised of 2,902 mineral titles
covering an aggregate of 38,437 hectares. Land holdings in Finland consisted of three groups of properties comprised of 231 mineral titles covering an aggregate of
26,672 hectares. Land holdings in Sweden consisted of one project comprised of ten mineral titles covering an aggregate of 10,369 hectares. Land holdings in Mexico consisted of
12 projects comprised of 137 mining concession titles covering an aggregate of 185,455 hectares.

The
total amount of expenditures incurred on regional exploration activities at the Company's exploration properties plus head office overhead and corporate development activities in 2014 was
$59 million. This included drilling 450 holes for an aggregate of approximately 98 kilometres on 100%-owned properties. It also included the Company's 50% portion of the cost of
drilling 102 holes for an aggregate of approximately 30 kilometres on Canadian Malartic GP exploration properties from June 16, 2014 to the end of the year.

The
budget for expenditures on regional exploration activities at the Company's exploration properties plus head office overhead and corporate development activities in 2015 is approximately
$90 million, including approximately 104 kilometres of drilling on 100%-owned properties, and 50% of the cost of drilling 45 kilometres on Canadian Malartic GP exploration
properties. For further details of the components of the 2015 exploration budget, see the Company's news release dated February 11, 2015.

The
integrity and validity of the exploration information in this AIF has been verified by Qualified Persons as defined by NI 43-101. This includes the sampling methods, and analytical and
testing data, with reviews of assay databases and assay certificates. The methods used by the Company follow the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum ("CIM") Best Practice Guidelines

Mineral Reserves and Mineral Resources

Cautionary Note to U.S. Investors Concerning Estimates of Measured and Indicated Mineral Resources

This section uses the terms "measured mineral resources" and "indicated mineral resources". Investors are advised that while these terms are recognized and required by Canadian
regulations, the SEC does not recognize them.Investors are cautioned not to assume that any part or all of mineral deposits in these categories will ever be converted into
mineral reserves.

Cautionary Note to U.S. Investors Concerning Estimates of Inferred Mineral Resources

This section uses the term "inferred mineral resources". Investors are advised that while this term is recognized and required by Canadian regulations, the SEC does not
recognize it. "Inferred mineral resources" have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence, and great uncertainty as to their economic and legal feasibility. It cannot be
assumed that any part or all of an inferred mineral resource will ever be upgraded to a higher category. Under Canadian rules, estimates of inferred mineral resources may not form the basis of
feasibility or pre-feasibility studies, except in rare cases.Investors are cautioned not to assume that any part or all of an inferred mineral resource exists, or is
economically or legally mineable.

Historically, mineral reserves and mineral resources for all properties were typically estimated using historic three-year average metals prices and foreign exchange rates in accordance with SEC
guidelines. These guidelines require the use of prices that reflect current economic conditions at the time of reserve determination, which the Staff of the SEC has interpreted to mean historic
three-year average prices. Given the current commodity price environment, the Company decided to use price assumptions that are below the three-year averages for its 2013 and 2014 mineral reserve and
mineral resource estimates. The assumptions used for the 2014 mineral reserves and mineral resources estimate at all mines and advanced projects reported by the Company in this AIF (other than the
Canadian Malartic mine) were $1,150 per ounce gold, $18 per ounce silver, $1.00 per pound zinc, $3.00 per pound copper and exchange rates of C$1.08 per $1.00, 13.00 Mexican pesos per $1.00 and
$1.30 per €1.00. The assumptions used at the Canadian Malartic mine were $1,300 per ounce gold, a cut-off grade between 0.28 g/t and 0.35 g/t gold (depending on the
deposit) and an exchange rate of C$1.10 per $1.00. The assumptions used for the 2013 mineral reserves and resources estimate at all mines and advanced projects reported by the Company were $1,200 per
ounce gold, $18.00 per ounce silver, $0.82 per pound zinc, $3.00 per pound copper and exchange rates of C$1.03 per $1.00, 12.75 Mexican pesos per $1.00 and $1.32 per €1.00. The
assumptions used for the 2012 mineral reserves and mineral resources estimates for the Lapa, Goldex, Meadowbank, Meliadine and Creston Mascota properties reported by the Company were based on
three-year average prices for the period ending December 31, 2012 of $1,490 per ounce of gold, $29.00 per ounce of silver, $0.95 per pound of zinc, $3.67 per pound of copper, $1.00 per pound of
lead and exchange rates of C$1.00 per $1.00, 12.75 Mexican pesos per $1.00 and $1.34 per €1.00. The assumptions used for the 2012 mineral reserves and resources estimates for
the LaRonde, Kittila, Pinos Altos, La India and Tarachi properties reported by the Company used more conservative metal price assumptions of $1,345 per ounce of gold, $25.00 per ounce of
silver, $0.95 per pound of zinc, $3.49 per pound of copper, $0.99 per pound of lead and exchange rates of C$1.00 per $1.00, 13.00 Mexican pesos per $1.00 and $1.30 per €1.00.
Other assumptions used for estimating 2013 and 2012 mineral reserve and mineral resource information may be found in the Company's annual filings in respect of the years ended December 31, 2013
and December 31, 2012, respectively.

In the tables above and below setting out mineral reserve information about the Company's mineral projects the total contained gold ounces stated do not include
equivalent gold ounces for byproduct metals contained in the mineral reserve. The Canadian Malartic mineral reserve and resource amounts represent Agnico Eagle's 50% interest in the property. For all
mineral reserves and mineral resources other than inferred mineral resources, the reported metal grades in the estimates reflect dilution after mining recovery. The mineral reserve and mineral
resource figures presented in this AIF are estimates, and no assurance can be given that the anticipated tonnages and grades will be achieved or that the indicated level of recovery will
be realized.

Principal Products and Distribution

The Company earns a significant portion of its revenue and cash flow from the production and sale of gold in both dore bar and concentrate form. The remainder of revenue and
cash flow is generated from the production and sale of byproduct metals, namely silver, zinc and copper. The gold produced by the Company is sold in refined form, primarily in the London spot market.
As a result, the Company is not dependent on any particular purchaser of its principal product.

Employees

As of December 31, 2014, the Company had 6,599 employees comprised of 4,999 permanent employees, 1,308 contractors, 222 temporary employees
and 70 students. Of the permanent employees, 841 were employed at the LaRonde mine, 198 at the Lapa mine, 241 at the Goldex mine, 687 at the Canadian Malartic mine
(with an additional 51 in the Canadian Malartic office), 399 at the Kittila mine (with an additional 11 at the Finnish exploration group), 693 at the Meadowbank mine (with
683 at Baker Lake and Meadowbank and 10 in Quebec), 16 at the Meliadine project, 929 at the Pinos Altos mine, 238 at the Creston Mascota deposit at Pinos Altos,
357 at the La India mine, 24 in the exploration group in Canada and the United States, 72 in the exploration group in Mexico, 122 at the regional technical
office in Abitibi and 120 at the corporate head office in Toronto. The number of permanent employees of the Company at the end of 2014, 2013 and 2012 was 5,187, 4,259 and 4,045, respectively.

Competitive Conditions

The precious metal exploration and mining business is a highly competitive business. The Company competes with other mining and exploration companies in connection with the
acquisition of mining claims and leases, the sourcing of raw materials and supplies used in connection with mining operations and the recruitment and retention of qualified employees.

The
ability of the Company to continue its mining business in the future will depend not only on its ability to develop its current properties, but also on its ability to select and acquire suitable
producing properties or prospects for precious metal development or exploration. See "Risk Factors" for a description of additional competitive risks the Company faces.

Sustainable Development

In 2014, the Company continued the process of incorporating health, safety and environmental sustainability into all aspects and stages of its business, from the corporate
objectives and executive responsibility of 'maintaining high standards in sustainability' to exploration and acquisition activities, day to day operating and site closure. This integration began in
2012 with the adoption of an integrated Health, Safety, Environment and Social Acceptability Policy referred to as the "Sustainable Development Policy" that reflects the Company's commitment to
responsible mining practices. This policy replaced the previous environmental and health and safety policies. The Company believes that the Sustainable Development Policy will lead to the achievement
of more sustainable practices through oversight and accountability.

The
Sustainable Development Policy operates through the development and implementation of a formal and integrated Health, Safety and Environmental Management System, termed the Responsible Mining
Management System (the "RMMS"), across all divisions of the Company. The aim of the RMMS is to further promote a culture of accountability and leadership in managing health, safety,
environmental and social acceptability matters. RMMS implementation is supported by software widely used in the Canadian mining industry that is consistent with the ISO 14001 Environmental
Management System and the OHSAS 18001 Health and Safety Management System.

The
RMMS incorporates the Company's commitments as a signatory to the International Cyanide Management Code (the "Cyanide Code"), a voluntary program which addresses the safe production,
transport, storage, handling and disposal of cyanide. The Company became a signatory to the Cyanide Code in September 2011 and is seeking to have the Kittila, Pinos Altos and Meadowbank mines
audited and certified under the Cyanide Code by an independent third party within the three year deadline. External audits were performed in 2014 and certification is expected following the submission
of the audit reports.

The
RMMS also integrates the requirements of the Mining Association of Canada's industry leading Towards Sustainable Mining Initiative (the "TSM Initiative"), as well as the Global Reporting
Initiative's sustainability reporting guidelines for the mining industry. In December 2010, the Company became a member of the Mining Association of Canada and endorsed the TSM Initiative. The
TSM Initiative was developed to help mining companies evaluate the quality, comprehensiveness and robustness of their management systems under six performance elements: crisis management; energy and
greenhouse gas emissions management; tailings management; biodiversity conservation management; health and safety;

and
aboriginal relations and community outreach. A gap analysis audit of the TSM Initiative was carried out in 2014. An external audit is planned for the first quarter of 2015.

The
Company has adopted and implemented the World Gold Council's Conflict-Free Gold Standard. This implementation was initiated on January 1, 2013.

The
Company's Sustainable Development Policy is available on the Company's website atwww.agnicoeagle.com.The Canadian Malartic mine's sustainable

There was one contractor fatality at the Pinos Altos mine in 2014 which occurred during shaft sinking. The Company's overall health and safety performance, as measured by
accident frequency, improved during 2014. A combined lost-time and restricted work accident frequency rate (excluding the Canadian Malartic mine) of 1.48 was achieved, an 18% reduction from the
2013 rate of 1.7 and substantially below the target rate of 2.1. This is the best combined accident frequency rate ever recorded by the Company. Extensive health and safety training was also provided
to all employees during 2014.

One
of the measures implemented by the Company to improve safety performance is the workplace safety card system. This system was implemented across all of the Company's operations, in Canada and
abroad, to strengthen the risk-based training program. Developed by the Quebec Mining Association (the "AMQ"), the safety card system teaches workers and supervisors to use risk-based thinking
in their duties. Workers and their supervisors must meet every day to discuss on-the-job health and safety matters. The safety card system also allows the Company's workers and supervisors to document
daily inspections and record observations on conditions in the workplace, as well as the nature of risks, issues and other relevant information. In addition, it allows supervisors to exchange and
analyze all relevant information between shifts and various technical services to improve efficiency and safety.

In
2014, the AMQ acknowledged the Company's strong performance in the area of health and safety, recognizing 20 of the Company's supervisors from the LaRonde, Lapa and Goldex mines for keeping their
workers safe. The supervisors received AMQ security trophy awards for 50,000, 100,000 and 150,000 hours supervised without a lost-time accident.

Each
of the Company's mining operations has its own Emergency Response Plan and has personnel trained to respond to safety, fire and environmental emergencies. Each mine also maintains the appropriate
response equipment. In 2014, the corporate crisis management plan was updated to align with industry best practices and the TSM Initiative requirements. Emergency response simulations were also
performed at all divisions. The TSM Initiative also contains a Health and Safety protocol. A gap analysis of compliance with the protocol was conducted in 2014 and an external audit will be part of
the external TSM Initiative audit to be carried out at the beginning of 2015.

The
Canadian Malartic mine's combined accident frequency rate in 2014 was 1.52 compared to an objective of 2.7, and decreased significantly from the 2013 rate of 3.1.

Community

The Company's ultimate goal, at each of its operations worldwide, is to hire as much of its workforce as possible, including management teams, directly from the local region in
which the operation is located. In 2014, the overall company average for local hiring was 81%. The Company believes that providing employment is one of the most significant contributions it can make
to the communities in which it operates.

The
Company continued its efforts in community development agreements in Nunavut. The Meadowbank IIBA was renewed and negotiations are progressing well on an agreement on the IIBA for the Meliadine
project. In 2014, the Company also initiated a dialogue with First Nations in the Abitibi. Canadian Malartic GP has entered into negotiations with First Nations around the Kirkland Lake project
and has also initiated a dialogue with First Nations in the Abitibi region.

In
2014, the Company continued to work closely with neighboring communities to develop alternative employment and business opportunities to help diversify local economies.

The
Canadian Malartic mine continued its contribution to the economic development fund (FEMO) which was established prior to mine development to diversify the local economy throughout the mine life so
that the town of Malartic is well equipped to face the eventual mine closure. The Canadian Malartic mine has also participated in forums initiated by the town council on the future of the town
of Malartic. All hiring at the Canadian Malartic mine is from the local area.

Stakeholder
mapping exercises were performed at all divisions to support the development of local community engagement plans. As well, community liaison committees were active in 2014. In Finland such
committees are fairly new and the implementation of the Kittila mine community liaison committee was well received by the local population.

2014
was the final year of the three-year Mining Matters program sponsored by the Company for the schools in the Kivalliq region of Nunavut. The goal of the program was to show young people that there
are interesting jobs and careers for them in the north, and that the mining industry can be a key source of these opportunities.

In
2014, the Company continued its support of the Kivalliq Mine Training Society and for the unique upward mobility training program for Inuit employees developed at Meadowbank. This program provides
training and career path opportunities for Inuit with limited education and work experience in the area of heavy equipment operations, mill operations and site services. Skills acquired through the
program are easily transferable to other sectors of the Nunavut economy.

For
the seventh year in a row, the Pinos Altos mine was certified as a Socially Responsible Company by the Mexican Centre for Philanthropy (Centro Mexicano para la Filantropía) and the
Alliance for Social Responsibility of Enterprises (Alianza por la Responsabilidad Social Empresarial en México). This certification recognizes the excellence of the social
responsibility practices at the Pinos Altos mine.

The
Company continues to support a number of community health and educational initiatives in the region surrounding the Pinos Altos mine, including the establishment of a local sewing cooperative and
donating material for the construction of new classrooms or for the repair of existing classrooms.

The
Company's Code of Business Conduct and Ethics Policy is available on the Company's website atwww.agnicoeagle.com.

Environmental Protection

The Company's exploration activities and mining and processing operations are subject to the federal, state, provincial, regional and local environmental laws and regulations
in the jurisdictions in which the Company's activities and facilities are located. These include requirements for planning and implementing the closure and reclamation of mining properties and related
financial assurance. Each mine is subject to environmental assessment and permitting processes during development and, in operation, has an environmental management system consistent with
ISO 140001 as well as an internal audit program. The Company works closely with regulatory authorities in each jurisdiction where it operates to ensure ongoing compliance.

The
Company has reported greenhouse gas emissions and climate change risk factors annually to the Carbon Disclosure Project since 2007.

The
LaRonde mine received an infraction notice in 2014 for a tailings line puncture that occurred in December 2013. The affected area was immediately cleaned up and no further action is
required. The Meadowbank mine was under investigation in 2014 by Environment Canada and Aboriginal Affairs and Northern Development Canada for a seepage event that occurred in 2013. The investigation
process is still ongoing.

The
Canadian Malartic mine has received 28 infractions in 2014, mostly related to noise, blasting fumes and overpressure, a decrease from the 41 infractions received in 2013. Action
plans have been established to continue this reduction.

The
Company's total liability for reclamation and closure cost obligations at December 31, 2014 was $256.7 million and the Company's reclamation expense for the year ended
December 31, 2014 were $8.2 million. For more information please see note 13 to the Annual Financial Statements.

RISK FACTORS

The operations of the Company are speculative due to the high-risk nature of its business, which is the acquisition, financing, exploration, development and
operation of mining properties. These risk factors could materially affect the Company's financial condition and/or future operating results and could cause actual events to differ materially from
those described in forward-looking statements relating to the Company. These are not the only risks and uncertainties that the Company faces. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to
the Company or that the Company currently considers immaterial may also impair its business operations.

The Company's financial performance and results may fluctuate widely due to volatile and unpredictable commodity prices.

The Company's earnings are directly related to commodity prices, as revenues are derived from the sale of gold, silver, zinc, and copper. Gold prices, which have the greatest
impact on the Company's financial performance, fluctuate widely and are affected by numerous factors, including, central bank purchases and sales, producer hedging and de-hedging activities,
expectations of inflation, investment demand, the relative exchange rate of the U.S. dollar with other major currencies, interest rates, global and regional demand, political and economic
conditions, production costs in major gold-producing regions, speculative positions taken by investors or traders in gold and changes in supply, including worldwide production levels, all of which are
beyond the Company's control. The aggregate effect of these factors is impossible to predict with accuracy. In addition, the price of gold has on occasion been subject to very rapid short-term changes
because of speculative activities or world events. Fluctuations in gold prices may materially adversely affect the Company's financial performance or results of operations. If the market price of gold
falls below the Company's total cash costs per ounce of production at one or more of its mines or projects at that time and remains so for any sustained period, the Company may experience losses
and/or may curtail or suspend some or all of its exploration, development and mining activities at such mines
or projects or at other mines or projects. In addition, such fluctuations may require changes to the mine plans. The Company's current mine plans and mineral reserve and mineral resource estimates are
based on a gold price of $1,150 per ounce, other than the Canadian Malartic mine, where mineral reserves and mineral resources are based on a gold price of $1,300 per ounce (see "Operations and
Production  Mineral Reserves and Mineral Resources  Information on Mineral Reserves and Mineral Resources of the
Company"); if the price of gold falls below such levels, the mines may be rendered uneconomic and production may be suspended. In addition, lower gold prices may require the mine plans to be changed,
which may result in reduced production, higher costs than anticipated or both and estimates of mineral reserves and mineral resources may be reduced. Further, the prices received from the sale of the
Company's byproduct metals produced at its LaRonde mine (silver, zinc and copper) and its Pinos Altos and Canadian Malartic mines (silver) affect the Company's ability to meet its targets for total
cash costs per ounce or all-in sustaining costs per ounce of gold produced when such measures are calculated on a by-product basis. These byproduct metal prices fluctuate widely and are also affected
by numerous factors beyond the Company's control. The Company's policy and practice is not to sell forward its future gold production; however, under the Company's price risk management policy,
approved by the Board of Directors, the Company may review this practice on a project by project basis. See "Risk Profile  Metal Prices and Foreign Currencies"
and "Risk Profile  Financial Instruments" in the Annual MD&A for more details on the Company's use of derivative instruments. The Company occasionally uses
derivative instruments to mitigate the effects of fluctuating byproduct metal prices; however, these measures may not be successful.

The
volatility of gold prices is illustrated in the following table which sets out, for the periods indicated, the high, low and average afternoon fixing prices for gold on the London Bullion Market
(the "London P.M. Fix").

The
assumptions that underlie the estimate of future operating results and the strategies used to mitigate the effects of risks of metal prices are set out in "Operations and
Production  Mineral Reserves and Mineral Resources  Information on Mineral Reserves and Mineral Resources of the Company"
and under the heading "Risk Profile" in the Annual MD&A.

Based
on 2015 production estimates, the approximate sensitivities of the Company's after-tax income to a 10% change in certain metal prices from 2014 market average prices are as follows:

|       |  | Income
per share | 
|------ |  | ---------------- | 
|       |  |                 
|       |  |                  | 
|Gold   |  | $0.68            | 
|      
|Silver |  | $0.03            | 
|      
|Zinc   |  | $0.01            | 
|      
|Copper |  | $0.02            | 
|      

Sensitivities of the Company's after-tax income to changes in metal prices will increase with increased production.

The Company is largely dependent upon its mining and milling operations at its Meadowbank mine in Nunavut and any adverse condition affecting those
operations may have a material adverse effect on the Company.

The Company's operations at the Meadowbank mine in Nunavut accounted for approximately 32% of the Company's gold production in 2014 and are expected to account for
approximately 25% of the Company's gold production in 2015. Also, in 2014 the Meadowbank mine accounted for approximately 34% of the Company's operating margin. In 2011, gold production at the
Meadowbank mine was approximately 90,000 ounces below the Company's expectations as a result of issues that included a fire that destroyed the minesite's kitchen facilities and higher than
anticipated dilution. Any adverse condition affecting mining or milling conditions at the Meadowbank mine could be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial performance and
results of operations (see " If the Company experiences mining accidents or other adverse conditions, the Company's mining operations may yield less gold than
indicated by its estimated gold production" below). Gold production at the Meadowbank mine is also subject to risks relating to operating in a remote location
(see " The Company may experience difficulties operating its Meadowbank mine and developing the Meliadine project as a result of their remote location" below). The
Company also anticipates using revenue generated by its operations at the Meadowbank mine to finance a substantial portion of its capital expenditures in 2015, including projects at the Pinos Altos
mine and the Meliadine project.

Unless
the Company acquires or develops other significant gold-producing assets, the Company will continue to be dependent on its operations at the Meadowbank mine for a substantial portion of its
gold production and cash flow provided by operating activities. The Company's current life of mine plans for the Meadowbank mine contemplates
the final year of gold production in 2017, and there can be no assurance that the Company's current exploration and development programs at Meadowbank (including the Amaruq advanced exploration
property) or its other mining projects will result in any new economically viable mining operations or yield new mineral reserves to replace and expand current mineral reserves.

The Company may experience difficulties operating its Meadowbank mine and developing the Meliadine project as a result of their remote location.

The Meadowbank mine, which is the Company`s largest mine in terms of production and operating margin, is located in the Kivalliq District of Nunavut in northern Canada,
approximately 70 kilometres north of Baker Lake. In addition, the Amaruq property, located 50 kilometres northwest of the Meadowbank mine, one of the Company's advanced exploration
properties, is being considered as a possible satellite operation to the Meadowbank mine. The closest major city to the Meadowbank mine is Winnipeg, Manitoba, approximately 1,500 kilometres to
the south. The Company constructed a 110-kilometre all-weather road from Baker Lake, which provides summer shipping access via Hudson Bay to the Meadowbank mine. However, the Company's operations are
constrained by the remoteness of the mine, particularly as the port of Baker Lake is only accessible approximately 2.5 months per year. Most of the materials that the Company requires for the
operation of the Meadowbank mine must be transported through the port of Baker Lake during this shipping season, which may be further truncated due to weather conditions. If the Company is unable to
acquire and transport necessary supplies during this time, it may result in a slowdown or stoppage of operations at the Meadowbank

mine.
Furthermore, if major equipment fails, items necessary to replace or repair such equipment may have to be shipped through Baker Lake during this window. Failure to have available the necessary
materials required for operations or to repair or replace malfunctioning equipment at the Meadowbank mine may require the slowdown or stoppage of operations. For example, a March 2011 fire at
the kitchen facilities of the Meadowbank mine required operations to be reduced at the mine, which resulted in gold production at the mine being below expected levels in 2011.

The
Company's Meliadine project, 290 kilometres southeast of the Meadowbank mine, is also located in the Kivalliq District of Nunavut, approximately 25 kilometres northwest of the hamlet
of Rankin Inlet on the west coast of Hudson Bay. Most of the materials that the Company requires to operate the advanced exploration program, and may require if it determines to build a mine in the
future, must be transported through the port of Rankin Inlet during its approximately 14-week shipping season. If the Company cannot identify and procure suitable equipment and materials within a
timeframe that permits transporting them to the project within this shipping season, it could result in delays and/or cost increases in the exploration program and, if the Company determines to build
a mine, any construction or development on the property.

The
remoteness of the Meadowbank mine and Meliadine project also necessitates the use of fly-in/fly-out camps for the accommodation of site employees and contractors, which may have an impact on the
Company's ability to attract and retain qualified mining, exploration and construction personnel. If the Company is unable to attract and retain sufficient personnel or contractors on a timely basis,
the Company's operations at the Meadowbank mine and future development plans at the Meliadine project may be adversely affected.

If the Company experiences mining accidents or other adverse conditions, the Company's mining operations may yield less gold than indicated by its
estimated gold production.

The Company's gold production may fall below estimated levels as a result of mining accidents such as cave-ins, rock falls, rock bursts, pit wall failures, fires or flooding or
as a result of other operational problems such as a failure of a production hoist, autoclave, filter press or semi-autogenous grinding mill. In addition, production may be reduced if, during the
course of mining or processing, unfavourable weather conditions, ground conditions, high geomechanical stress areas or seismic activity are encountered, ore grades are lower than expected, the
physical or metallurgical characteristics of the ore are less amenable than expected to mining or treatment, dilution increases, electrical power is interrupted or heap leach processing results in
containment discharge. While the Company met production forecasts in 2014, it failed to do so in six of the previous ten years primarily due to: higher than expected dilution in 2004 at LaRonde;
increased stress levels in a sill pillar requiring the temporary closure of production sublevels in 2005 at LaRonde; delays in the commissioning of the Goldex production hoist and the Kittila
autoclave in 2008; and autoclave issues at Kittila, filtering issues at Pinos Altos and dilution issues at Lapa in 2009. In 2010, gold production was below the initial anticipated range primarily as a
result of lower throughput at the Meadowbank mine mill due to a bottleneck in the crushing circuit and continued autoclave issues at the Kittila mine in the first half of the year. In 2011, gold
production was below the initial anticipated range primarily as a result of suspension of mining operations at the Goldex mine due to geotechnical concerns with the rock above the mining horizon, a
fire in the Meadowbank mine kitchen complex that negatively impacted production, and lower than expected grades at the Meadowbank and LaRonde mines. Although gold production since 2012 has exceeded
the Company's forecasts, gold production in 2012 was negatively impacted due to the temporary suspension of heap leach operations at the Creston Mascota deposit at Pinos Altos as a result of issues
with the phase one leach pad liner, gold production in 2013 was negatively impacted due to an extended maintenance shutdown at Kittila during the second quarter, during which the mine only operated
for 14 days, and a 16-day unplanned shutdown related to the LaRonde hoist drive and gold production in 2014 was negatively impacted due to ten days of downtime resulting from a production hoist
drive failure. Occurrences of this nature and other accidents, adverse conditions or operational problems in future years may result in the Company's failure to achieve current or future production
estimates.

The Company's total cash costs and all-in sustaining costs per ounce of gold production depend, in part, on external factors that are subject to
fluctuation and, if such costs increase, some or all of the Company's activities may become unprofitable.

The Company's total cash costs per ounce and all-in sustaining costs per ounce of gold are dependent on a number of factors, including the exchange rate between the
U.S. dollar and the Canadian dollar, Euro or Mexican peso, smelting and refining charges, production royalties, the price of gold and byproduct metals (when calculated on a by-product basis)
and the cost of inputs used in mining operations. At the LaRonde mine, the Company's total cash costs and all-in sustaining costs per ounce of production (when calculated on a by-product basis) are
affected by the prices and production levels of byproduct zinc, silver and copper, the revenue from which is offset against the cost of gold production. At the Canadian

AGNICO EAGLE87ANNUAL INFORMATION FORM

Malartic
mine, the Company's total cash costs and all-in sustaining costs per ounce of production (when calculated on a by-product basis) are affected by the prices and production levels of byproduct
silver, the revenue from which is offset against the cost of gold production. Total cash costs and all-in sustaining costs per ounce from the Company's operations at the Pinos Altos and
La India mines are affected by the exchange rate between the U.S. dollar and the Mexican peso and the price and (when calculated on a by-product basis) production level of byproduct
silver, the revenue from which is offset against the cost of gold production. Total cash costs and all-in sustaining costs per ounce from the Company's operations at its mines in Canada and the
Kittila mine are affected by changes in the exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and the Canadian dollar and the Euro, respectively. Total cash costs and all-in sustaining costs per ounce at
all of the Company's mines are also affected by the costs of inputs used in mining operations, including labour (including contractors), steel, chemical reagents and energy. All of these factors are
beyond the Company's control. If the Company's total cash costs or all-in sustaining costs per ounce of gold rise above the market price of gold and remain so for any sustained period, the Company may
experience losses and may curtail or suspend some or all of its exploration, development and mining activities.

Total
cash costs and all-in sustaining costs per ounce are not recognized measures under US GAAP or IFRS, and this data may not be comparable to data presented by other gold producers. Management uses
these generally accepted industry measures in evaluating operating performance and believes that they are realistic indicators of such performance and useful in allowing year over year comparisons.
These data also reflect the Company's ability to generate cash flow and operating income at various gold prices. This additional information should be considered together with other data prepared in
accordance with US GAAP or IFRS, as the case may be, and is not necessarily indicative of operating costs or cash flow measures prepared in accordance with US GAAP or IFRS. See the Annual MD&A for
reconciliation of total cash costs and all-in sustaining costs per ounce and minesite costs per tonne to their closest IFRS measure and "Introductory Notes  Note
to Investors Concerning Certain Measures of Performance" for a discussion of non-GAAP measures.

The Company's recently opened mines, mine construction projects and expansion projects are subject to risks associated with new mine development, which
may result in delays in the start-up of mining operations, delays in existing operations and unanticipated costs.

The Company's production forecasts are based on full production being achieved at all of its mines, and the Company's ability to achieve and maintain full production rates at
these mines is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties. Production from these mines in 2015 may be lower than anticipated if the anticipated full production rate cannot be achieved.

The
LaRonde mine extension, which commenced operation in late 2011, is one of the deepest operations in the Western Hemisphere with an expected maximum depth of 3,110 metres below the surface
and, in 2015, 79% of the LaRonde mine's production is anticipated to be from the LaRonde mine extension. The operations of the LaRonde mine extension rely on new infrastructure for hauling ore and
materials to the surface, including a winze (or internal shaft) and a series of ramps linking mining deposits to the Penna Shaft that services current operations at the LaRonde mine. The depth
of the operations poses significant challenges to the Company, such as geomechanical and seismic risks and ventilation and air conditioning requirements, which may result in difficulties and delays in
achieving gold production objectives. Operations at the lower level of the LaRonde mine are subject to high levels of geomechanical stress and there are few resources available to assist the Company
in modelling the geomechanical conditions at these depths, which may result in the Company not being able to extract the ore at these levels as currently contemplated. In 2012, challenges associated
with excess heat and congestion at the lower parts of the mine delayed the ramp up of production and in 2013, throughput at the LaRonde mine was reduced as a result of 16 days of unplanned shut
down to the hoist drive. In 2014, ten days of downtime resulting from a production hoist drive failure resulted in annual production at LaRonde being approximately 10,000 ounces below the
Company`s expectations. The LaRonde mine extension has not yet begun to operate at expected steady-state levels.

The
further development of the Kittila and Pinos Altos mines, as well as the development of the new mining zones at the Goldex mine, requires the construction and operation of new underground mining
infrastructure and, at Kittila, milling operations were required to be expanded. The construction and operation of underground mining facilities and the expansion of milling facilities are
subject to a number of risks, including unforeseen geological formations, implementation of new mining or milling processes, delays in obtaining required construction, environmental or operating
permits and engineering and mine or mill design adjustments.

Mineral reserve and mineral resource estimates are only estimates and such estimates may not accurately reflect future mineral recovery.

The figures for mineral reserves and mineral resources published by the Company are estimates and no assurance can be given that the anticipated tonnages and grades will be
achieved or that the indicated level of recovery of gold will be realized. Mineral reserve and resource estimates are based on gold recoveries in small scale laboratory tests and may not be indicative
of the mineralization in the entire orebody and the Company may not be able to achieve similar results in larger scale tests under on-site conditions or during production. The ore grade actually
recovered by the Company may differ from the estimated grades of the mineral reserves and mineral resources. The estimates of mineral reserves and mineral resources have been determined based on
assumed metal prices, foreign exchange rates and operating costs. For example, the Company has estimated proven and probable mineral reserves based on, among other things, a $1,150 per ounce gold
price ($1,300 for Canadian Malartic). The monthly average gold price has been above $1,150 per ounce from May 2010; however, prior to that time, monthly average gold prices were below $1,150
per ounce. Prolonged declines in the market price of gold (or applicable byproduct metal prices) may render mineral reserves containing relatively lower grades of mineralization uneconomical to
recover and could materially reduce the Company's mineral reserves. Should such reductions occur, the Company may be required to take a material write-down of its investment in mining properties,
reduce the carrying value of one or more of its assets or delay or discontinue production or the development of new projects, resulting in increased net losses and reduced cash flow. The Company used
an assumed $1,300 gold price to test for impairment of its mines and concluded no impairments existed as at December 31, 2014. Market price fluctuations of gold (or applicable byproduct
metal prices), as well as increased production costs or reduced recovery rates, may render mineral reserves containing relatively lower grades of mineralization uneconomical to recover and may
ultimately result in a
restatement of mineral resources. Short-term factors relating to the mineral reserve, such as the need for orderly development of orebodies or the processing of new or different grades, may impair the
profitability of a mine in any particular accounting period.

Mineral
resource estimates for properties that have not commenced production or at deposits that have not yet been exploited are based, in most instances, on very limited and widely spaced drill hole
information, which is not necessarily indicative of conditions between and around the drill holes. Accordingly, such mineral resource estimates may require revision as more drilling information
becomes available or as actual production experience is gained.

The Company may experience problems in executing acquisitions or managing and integrating any completed acquisitions with its existing operations.

The Company regularly evaluates opportunities to acquire securities or assets of other mining businesses. Such acquisitions may be significant in size, may change the scale of
the Company's business and may expose the Company to new geographic, political, operating, financial or geological risks. The Company's success in its acquisition activities depends on its ability to
identify suitable acquisition candidates, acquire them on acceptable terms and integrate their operations successfully with those of the Company. Any acquisition would be accompanied by risks, such
as: the difficulty of assimilating the operations and personnel of any acquired businesses; the potential disruption of the Company's ongoing business; the inability of management to maximize the
financial and strategic position of the Company through the successful integration of acquired assets and businesses; the maintenance of uniform standards, controls, procedures and policies; the
impairment of relationships with employees, customers and contractors as a result of any integration of new management personnel; and the potential unknown liabilities (including any prior bribery or
corruption activities) associated with acquired assets and businesses. In addition, the Company may need additional capital to finance an acquisition. Debt financing related to any acquisition may
expose the Company to the risks related to increased leverage, while equity financing may cause existing shareholders to suffer dilution. The Company is permitted under the terms of its unsecured
revolving bank credit facility and its guaranteed senior unsecured notes referred to under "Material Contracts" below to incur additional unsecured indebtedness, provided that it maintains certain
financial ratios and meets financial condition covenants and, in the case of the bank credit facility, that no event of default under the bank credit facility has occurred and is continuing, or would
occur as a result of the incurrence or assumption of such indebtedness. There can be no assurance that the Company would be successful in overcoming these or any other problems encountered in
connection with such acquisitions.

The Company may experience operational difficulties at its foreign operations.

The Company's operations include a mine in Finland and two mines in northern Mexico. Collectively, these mines accounted for approximately 30% of the Company's gold production
in 2014 and are expected to account for 31% of the Company's gold production in 2015. These operations are subject to various levels of political, economic and other risks

and
uncertainties that are different from those encountered at the Company's Canadian properties. These risks and uncertainties vary from country to country and may include: extreme fluctuations in
currency exchange rates; high rates of inflation; labour unrest; risks of war or civil unrest; expropriation and nationalization; renegotiation or nullification of existing concessions, licences,
permits and contracts; illegal mining; corruption; restrictions on foreign exchange and repatriation; hostage taking; changing political conditions; and currency controls. In addition, the Company
must comply with multiple and potentially conflicting regulations in Canada, the United States, Finland and Mexico, including export requirements, taxes, tariffs, import duties and other trade
barriers, as well as health, safety and environmental requirements.

Changes,
if any, in mining or investment policies or shifts in political attitude in Finland or Mexico may adversely affect the Company's operations or profitability. Operations may be affected in
varying degrees by government regulations with respect to matters including restrictions on production, price controls, export controls, currency controls or restrictions, currency remittance, income
and other taxes, expropriation of property, foreign investment, maintenance of claims, environmental legislation, land use, land claims of local people, water use and mine safety. Failure to comply
strictly with applicable laws, regulations and local practices relating to mineral rights applications and tenure could result in loss, reduction or expropriation of entitlements or the imposition of
additional local or foreign parties as joint venture partners with carried or other interests.

In
addition, Finland and Mexico have significantly different laws and regulations than Canada and there are cultural and language differences between these countries and Canada. Also, the Company
faces challenges inherent in efficiently managing employees over large geographical distances, including the challenges of staffing and managing operations in several international locations and
implementing appropriate systems, policies, benefits and compliance programs. These challenges may divert management's attention to the detriment of the Company's other operations. There can be no
assurance that difficulties associated with the Company's foreign operations can be successfully managed.

In
the future, the Company may choose to operate in foreign jurisdictions other than Finland and Mexico. Such operations would inherently be subject to various levels of political, economic and other
risks and uncertainties that are different from those encountered at the Company's Canadian, Finnish and Mexican properties.

The Company is subject to the risks normally associated with the conduct of joint operations.

The Company holds an indirect 50% interest in the Canadian Malartic mine through the Canadian Malartic GP, with the remaining interest in this property being held
indirectly by Yamana. The Company's interest in the Canadian Malartic mine is subject to the risks normally associated with the conduct of partnerships and other joint operations.
The existence or occurrence of one or more of the following circumstances and events could have a material adverse effect on Company's profitability or the viability of its interests held through
joint operations, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial performance and results of operations: (i) lack of control over the joint operations and disagreement
with partners on how to explore, develop and operate mines efficiently; (ii) inability to exert influence over certain strategic decisions made in respect of jointly held properties;
(iii) inability of partners to meet their obligations to the joint operation or third parties; (iv) litigation between joint venture partners regarding joint operation matters; and
(v) liability that might accrue to partners as a result of the failure of the joint venture or general partnership to satisfy their obligations. The Company may enter into additional joint
ventures or partnerships in the future.

To
the extent that the Company is not the operator of its joint venture properties, the success of any operations will be dependent on the operators for the timing of activities related to these
properties and the Company will be largely unable to direct or control the activities of the operators. The Company is subject to the decisions made by the operator in the operation of the property,
and will rely on the operators for accurate information about the properties. Although the Company expects that the operators of the properties to which it owns an interest will operate these
properties with the highest standards and in accordance with the respective operating agreements, there can be no assurance that all decisions of the operators will achieve the expected goals.

Fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates in relation to the U.S. dollar may adversely affect the Company's results of operations.

The Company's operating results and cash flow are significantly affected by changes in the U.S. dollar/Canadian dollar exchange rate. All of the Company's revenues are
earned in U.S. dollars but the majority of its operating costs at the LaRonde, Lapa, Goldex, Canadian Malartic and Meadowbank mines, as well as the Meliadine project, are incurred in Canadian
dollars. The U.S. dollar/Canadian dollar exchange rate has fluctuated significantly over the last several years. From January 1, 2010 to January 1, 2015, the Noon Buying Rate
fluctuated from a high of C$1.1643 per $1.00 to a low of

90AGNICO EAGLE
           ANNUAL INFORMATION FORM

---



C$0.9949
per $1.00. Historical fluctuations in the U.S. dollar/Canadian dollar exchange rate are not necessarily indicative of future exchange rate fluctuations. Based on the Company's
anticipated 2015 after-tax operating results, a 10% change in the U.S. dollar/Canadian dollar exchange rate from the 2014 market average exchange rate would affect net income by approximately
$0.29 per share. To attempt to mitigate its foreign exchange risk and minimize the impact of exchange rate movements on operating results and cash flow, the Company has periodically used foreign
currency options and forward foreign exchange contracts to purchase Canadian dollars; however, there can be no assurance that these strategies will be effective. See "Risk
Profile  Metal Prices and Foreign Currencies" in the Annual MD&A for a description of the assumptions underlying the sensitivity and the strategies used to
mitigate the effects of risks. In addition, the majority of the Company's operating costs at the Kittila mine are incurred in Euros and a significant portion of operating costs at the Pinos Altos and
La India mines are incurred in Mexican pesos. Each of these currencies has fluctuated significantly against the U.S. dollar over the past several years. There can be no assurance that
the Company's foreign exchange derivatives strategies will be successful or that foreign exchange fluctuations will not materially adversely affect the Company's financial performance and results
of operations.

The Company estimates the recoverable amount of long-lived assets and goodwill using assumptions and if the carrying value of an asset or goodwill is
then determined to be greater than its actual recoverable amount, an impairment is recognized reducing the Company's earnings.

The Company conducts annual impairment assessments of goodwill and at the end of each reporting period the Company assesses whether there is any indication that long-lived
assets (such as mining properties and plant and equipment) may be impaired. If an indicator of impairment exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is calculated in order to determine if any
impairment loss is required. Testing for impairment involves a comparison of the recoverable amount of the cash generating unit to its carrying value. An impairment charge is recognized for any excess
of the carrying amount of the asset group or reporting unit over its recoverable amount. As at December 31, 2014, the Company tested for impairment of its mines and projects and concluded no
impairments existed.

The
assessment for impairment is subjective and requires management to make estimates and assumptions for a number of factors including estimates of production levels, mineral resources and reserves,
operating costs and capital expenditures reflected in the Company's life-of-mine plans, as well as economic factors beyond management's control, such as gold prices, discount rates and observable net
asset value multiples. Should management's estimates and assumptions regarding these factors be incorrect, the Company may be required to realize impairment charges, which will reduce the Company's
earnings. The timing and amount of such impairment charges is difficult to predict.

The
Company's recently completed transition to reporting its financial results under IFRS may also have an effect on the frequency and amount of impairment charges. Under US GAAP, a two-step approach
is used for long-lived asset impairment testing whereby long-lived assets are first tested for recoverability based on their expected undiscounted cash flows. If a long-lived asset's expected
undiscounted cash flow exceeds the recorded carrying amount, no impairment charge is required. If the expected undiscounted cash flow is lower than the recorded carrying amount, the long-lived assets
are written down to their estimated fair value. IFRS prescribes a one-step approach for asset impairment testing and measurement whereby an asset's recoverable amount is compared directly against its
recorded carrying amount. Under IFRS, an asset's recoverable amount is determined as the higher of the estimated fair value less costs to sell or value in use (which is measured using discounted cash
flows). If an asset's recoverable amount is less than the recorded carrying amount, an impairment charge is required. The difference in the approach to asset impairment testing and measurement may
result in more frequent impairment charges under IFRS, where asset carrying values previously supported under US GAAP on an undiscounted cash flow basis cannot be supported on a discounted cash
flow basis.

If the Company fails to comply with restrictive covenants in its debt instruments, the Company's ability to borrow under its unsecured revolving bank
credit facility could be limited and the Company may then default under other debt agreements, which could harm the Company's business.

The Company's unsecured revolving bank credit facility limits, among other things, the Company's ability to permit the creation of certain liens, make investments other than
investments in businesses related to mining or a business ancillary or complementary to mining, dispose of the Company's material assets or, in certain circumstances, pay dividends. In addition, the
Company's guaranteed senior unsecured notes limit, among other things, the Company's ability to permit the creation of certain liens, carry on business unrelated to mining or dispose of the Company's
material assets. The bank credit facility and the guaranteed senior unsecured notes also require the Company to maintain specified financial ratios and meet financial condition covenants. Events
beyond the Company's control, including changes in general economic and business conditions, may affect the Company's ability to satisfy these covenants, which could result in a default under

AGNICO EAGLE91ANNUAL INFORMATION FORM

the
bank credit facility or the guaranteed senior unsecured notes and, by extension, the Company's uncommitted letter of credit facility. At March 12, 2015, there was approximately
$471 million drawn under the bank credit facility (including outstanding letters of credit) and approximately C$181 million drawn under the letter of credit facility. If an event of
default under the unsecured revolving bank credit facility or the guaranteed senior unsecured notes occurs, the Company would be unable to draw down further on the bank credit facility and the lenders
could elect to declare all principal amounts outstanding thereunder at such time, together with accrued interest, to be immediately due and it could cause an event of default under the Company's
guaranteed senior unsecured notes and the uncommitted letter of credit facility. An event of default under the unsecured revolving bank credit facility, the guaranteed senior unsecured notes or the
uncommitted letter of credit facility may also give rise to an event of default under other existing and future debt agreements and, in such event, the Company may not have sufficient funds to repay
amounts owing under such agreements.

The exploration of mineral properties is highly speculative, involves substantial expenditures and is frequently unsuccessful.

The Company's profitability is significantly affected by the costs and results of its exploration and development programs. As mines have limited lives based on proven and
probable mineral reserves, the Company actively seeks to replace and expand its mineral reserves, primarily through exploration and development as well as through strategic acquisitions. Exploration
for minerals is highly speculative in nature, involves many risks and is frequently unsuccessful. Among the many uncertainties inherent in any gold exploration and development program are the location
of economic orebodies, the development of appropriate metallurgical processes, the receipt of necessary governmental permits, the acceptance or support of local stakeholders and the construction of
mining and processing facilities. Substantial expenditures are required to pursue such exploration and development activities. Assuming discovery of an economic orebody, depending on the type of
mining operation involved, several years may elapse from the initial phases of drilling until commercial operations are commenced and during such time the economic feasibility of production may
change. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the Company's current or future exploration and development programs will result in any new economically viable mining operations or yield new
mineral reserves to replace and expand current mineral reserves.

The mining industry is highly competitive, and the Company may not be successful in competing for new mining properties.

There is a limited supply of desirable mineral properties available for claim staking, leasing, exploration or acquisition in the areas where the Company contemplates
conducting activities. Many companies and individuals are engaged in the mining business, including large, established mining companies with substantial capabilities and long earnings records. The
Company may be at a competitive disadvantage in acquiring mining properties, as it must compete with these companies and individuals, some of which have greater financial resources and larger
technical staff than the Company. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to compete successfully for new mining properties.

The success of the Company is dependent on good relations with its employees and on its ability to attract and retain employees and
key personnel.

Production at the Company's mines and mine projects is dependent on the efforts of the Company's employees and contractors. The Company competes with mining and other companies
on a global basis to attract and retain employees at all levels with appropriate technical skills and operating experience necessary to operate its mines. Relationships between the Company and its
employees may be affected by changes in the scheme of labour relations that may be introduced by relevant government authorities in the jurisdictions that the Company operates. Changes in applicable
legislation or in the relationship between the Company and its employees or contractors may have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, results of operations and financial condition.

The
Company is also dependent on a number of key management personnel. The loss of the services of one or more of such key management personnel could have a material adverse effect on the Company. The
Company's ability to manage its operating, development, exploration and financing activities will depend in large part on the efforts of these individuals.

The
Company faces significant competition to attract and retain qualified personnel and there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to attract and retain such personnel.

The Company may have difficulty financing its additional capital requirements for its planned mine construction, exploration and development.

The capital required for operations (including potential expansions) and the development of the Meliadine project and the exploration and development of the Company's
properties, including continuing exploration and development projects in Quebec, Nunavut, Finland, Sweden, Mexico and Nevada, will require substantial
expenditures. The Company expects that capital expenditures will be approximately $481 million in 2015. As at March 12, 2015, the Company had approximately $729 million available
to be drawn down under its bank credit facility. Based on current funding available to the Company and expected cash from operations, the Company believes it has sufficient funds available to fund its
projected 2015 capital expenditures for all of its current properties. However, if cash from operations is lower than expected or capital costs at these mines or projects exceed current estimates, if
the Company incurs major unanticipated expenses related to exploration, development or maintenance of its properties, or if advances from the bank credit facility are unavailable, the Company may be
required to seek additional financing to maintain its capital expenditures at planned levels. In addition, the Company will have additional capital requirements to the extent that it decides to expand
its present operations and exploration activities, construct additional mining and processing operations at any of its properties or take advantage of opportunities for acquisitions, joint ventures or
other business opportunities that may arise. Additional financing may not be available when needed or, if available, the terms of such financing may not be favourable to the Company and, if raised by
offering equity securities, or securities convertible into equity securities, any additional financing may involve substantial dilution to existing shareholders. Failure to obtain any financing
necessary for the Company's capital expenditure plans may result in a delay or indefinite postponement of exploration, development or production on any or all of the Company's properties, which may
have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations.

The continuing weakness in the global credit and capital markets could have a material adverse effect on the Company's liquidity and capital resources.

The credit and capital markets experienced significant deterioration in 2008, including, without limitation, the failure of significant and established financial institutions
in the United States and abroad, and have continued to show weakness and volatility. These severe disruptions in the credit and capital markets continue to have a negative impact on the
availability and terms of credit and capital. If uncertainties in these markets continue, or these markets deteriorate further, it could have a material adverse effect on the Company's liquidity,
ability to raise capital and costs of capital. Failure to raise capital when needed or on reasonable terms may have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results
of operations.

The Company's properties and mining operations may be subject to rights or claims of indigenous groups and the assertion of such rights or claims may
impact the Company's ability to develop or operate its mining properties.

The Company operates in some areas currently or traditionally inhabited or used by indigenous peoples and subject to indigenous rights or claims. Accordingly, the Company is
subject to the risk that one or more groups may oppose the continued operation, further development or new development of the Company's current or future properties. Such opposition may be directed
through legal or administrative proceedings, or though protests or other campaigns against the Company's activities. Any such actions may have an adverse impact on the Company's operations. Although
the Company attempts to develop and maintain good working relationships with all stakeholders, there can be no assurance that these relationships can be successfully managed.

The Company's operations are subject to numerous laws and extensive government regulations which may require significant expenditures or cause a
reduction in levels of production, delay or the prevention of the development of new mining properties or otherwise cause the Company to incur costs that adversely affect the Company's results
of operations.

The Company's mining and mineral processing operations, exploration activities and properties are subject to the laws and regulations of federal, provincial, state and local
governments in the jurisdictions in which the Company operates. These laws and regulations are extensive and govern prospecting, exploration, development, production, exports, taxes, labour standards,
occupational health and safety, waste disposal and tailings management, toxic substances, environmental protection, mine safety and other matters. Compliance with such laws and regulations increases
the costs of planning, designing, drilling, developing, constructing, operating, managing, closing, reclaiming and rehabilitating mines and other facilities. New laws or regulations, amendments to
current laws and regulations governing operations and activities on mining properties or more stringent implementation or interpretation thereof could have a material adverse effect on the

Company,
cause a reduction in levels of production and delay or prevent the development of new mining properties. Regulatory enforcement, in the form of infraction or compliance notices, has occurred
at some of the Company's mines and while the current risks related to such enforcement are not expected to be material, the risk of material fines or corrective action cannot be ruled out in
the future.

Due to the nature of the Company's mining operations, the Company may face liability, delays and increased production costs from environmental and
industrial accidents and pollution, and the Company's insurance coverage may prove inadequate to satisfy future claims against the Company.

The business of gold mining is generally subject to risks and hazards, including environmental hazards (including hazardous substances such as cyanide), industrial accidents,
unusual or unexpected rock formations, changes in the regulatory environment, cave-ins, rock bursts, rock falls, pit wall failures and flooding and gold bullion losses. Such occurrences could result
in damage to, or destruction of, mineral properties or production facilities, personal injury or death, environmental damage, delays in mining, monetary losses and possible legal liability. As well,
risks may arise with respect to the management of tailings, waste rock, mine closure and management of closed mine sites (whether the Company operated the mine site or acquired it after operations
were conducted by others). The Company carries insurance to protect itself against certain risks of mining and processing in amounts that it considers to be adequate but which may not provide adequate
coverage in certain unforeseen circumstances. The Company may also become subject to liability for pollution, cave-ins or other hazards against which it cannot insure or against which it has elected
not to insure because of high premium costs or other reasons, or the Company may become subject to liabilities which exceed policy limits. In these circumstances, the Company may incur significant
costs that could have a material adverse effect on its financial performance and results of operations. Financial assurances may also be required with respect to closure and rehabilitation costs.

Increased regulation of greenhouse gas emissions and climate change issues may adversely affect the Company's operations.

The Company operates in jurisdictions where regulatory requirements have taken effect or are proposed to monitor, report and/or reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Increased
regulation of greenhouse gas emissions and climate change issues may adversely affect the Company's operations. For example, Canada has targeted to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 17% from 2005
levels by 2020 through a sector-by-sector approach and intends to participate in the negotiation of a new international climate treaty, which would come into force in 2020. Canada's federal and
provincial regulations also impose mandatory greenhouse gas emissions reporting requirements and Quebec mines are subject to a cap-and-trade regulation. Similarly, Finland participates in the European
Union's cap-and-trade system and Mexico has enacted climate change legislation with a greenhouse gas emission reduction target of 30% (from business-as-usual levels) by 2020.

The
Company monitors and reports annually its direct and indirect greenhouse gas emissions to the international Carbon Disclosure Project. In Quebec, the Company uses primarily hydroelectric power and
is not a large producer of greenhouse gases. As a result, Quebec's new regulatory requirements are not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company. The Meadowbank mine produces
approximately 132,000 tonnes of greenhouse gases per year mostly from the production of electricity from diesel power generation, which is approximately 47% of the Company's total greenhouse gas
emissions. It is expected that any mining operation at the Meliadine project will also use diesel power generation. The Pinos Altos mine purchases electricity that is largely fossil-fuel generated and
is the Company's second highest greenhouse gas producer (at about 86,000 tonnes of greenhouse gases per year), which is approximately 22% of the Company's total direct greenhouse gas emissions.
The LaRonde mine, with approximately 31,000 tonnes per year, is the Company's third highest producer of greenhouse gases. None of the Company's other operations emit more than 20,000 tonnes of
greenhouse gases per year. While these evolving regulatory requirements in respect of greenhouse gases and the additional costs required to comply are not expected to have a material adverse effect on
the Company's operations, such requirements may not be adopted as currently proposed, may be amended or may have unexpected effects on the Company and, as a result, may have a material adverse effect
on the Company's financial performance and its results of operations.

Title to the Company's properties may be uncertain and subject to risks.

The acquisition of title to mineral properties is a very detailed and time-consuming process. Title to, and the area of, mineral concessions may be disputed. Although the
Company believes it has taken reasonable measures to ensure proper title to its properties, there is no guarantee that title to any of its properties will not be challenged or impaired. Third parties
may have valid claims on underlying portions of the Company's interests, including prior unregistered liens, agreements,

94AGNICO EAGLE
           ANNUAL INFORMATION FORM

---



transfers
or claims, including land claims by indigenous groups, and title may be affected by, among other things, undetected defects. In addition, although the Company believes that it has sufficient
surface rights for its operations, the Company may be unable to operate its properties as permitted or to enforce its rights in respect of its properties.

The Company is subject to the risk of litigation, the causes and costs of which cannot be known.

The Company is subject to litigation arising in the normal course of business and may be involved in disputes with other parties in the future which may result in litigation.
The causes of potential future litigation cannot be known and may arise from, among other things, business activities, environmental laws, volatility in stock price or failure or alleged failure to
comply with disclosure obligations. Currently, the Company is the subject of certain class action lawsuits relating to the Company's disclosure prior to the suspension of mining operations at the
Goldex mine in October 2011, as described under "Legal Proceedings and Regulatory Actions" below. The results of litigation cannot be predicted with certainty. If the Company is unable to
resolve these disputes favourably, either by judicial determination or settlement, it may have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial performance and results of operations.

In
the event of a dispute involving the foreign operations of the Company, the Company may be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of foreign courts or may not be successful in subjecting foreign
persons to the jurisdiction of courts in Canada. The Company's ability to enforce its rights could have an adverse effect on its future cash flows, earnings, results of operations and financial
condition.

The use of derivative instruments for the Company's byproduct metal production may prevent gains from being realized from subsequent byproduct metal
price increases.

While the Company's general policy is not to sell forward its future gold production, the Company has used, and may in the future use, various byproduct metal derivative
strategies, such as selling future contracts or purchasing put options. The Company continually evaluates the potential short and long term benefits of engaging in such derivative strategies based
upon current market conditions. No assurance can be given, however, that the use of byproduct metal derivative strategies will benefit the Company in the future. There is a possibility that the
Company could lock in forward deliveries at prices lower than the market price at the time of delivery. In addition, the Company could fail to produce enough byproduct metals to offset its forward
delivery obligations, requiring the Company to purchase the metal in the spot market at higher prices to fulfill its delivery obligations or, for cash settled contracts, make cash payments to
counterparties in excess of byproduct revenue. If the Company is locked into a lower than market price forward contract or has to buy additional quantities at higher prices, its net income could be
adversely affected. None of the current contracts establishing the byproduct metal derivatives positions qualify for hedge accounting treatment under IFRS and therefore any year-end mark-to-market
adjustments are recognized in the "Loss on derivative financial instruments" line item of the consolidated statements of income (loss) and comprehensive income. See "Risk
Profile  Financial Instruments" in the Annual MD&A for additional information.

The trading price for the Company's securities is volatile.

The trading price of the Company's common shares has been and may continue to be subject to large fluctuations which may result in losses to investors. The trading price of the
Company's common shares may increase or decrease in response to a number of events and factors, including:



Wide
price swings are currently common in the markets on which the Company's securities trade. This volatility may adversely affect the prices of the Company's common shares regardless of the
Company's operating performance.

The Company is subject to anti-corruption and anti-bribery laws.

The Company's operations are governed by, and involve interactions with, various levels of government in numerous countries. The Company is required to comply with
anti-corruption and anti-bribery laws, including theCorruption of Foreign Public Officials Act(Canada) and the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices
Act, as well as similar laws in the countries in which the Corporation conducts its business. Recently, there has been a general increase in the frequency of enforcement and the severity of penalties
under such laws, resulting in greater scrutiny and punishment to companies convicted of violating anti-corruption and anti-bribery laws. The Company may be found liable for violations by not only its
employees, but also by its third party agents. Although the Company has adopted a risk-based approach to mitigate such risks, including the implementation of policies to ensure compliance with such
laws, such measures are not always effective in ensuring that the Company, its employees or third party agents will comply strictly with such laws. If the Company finds itself subject to an
enforcement action or is found to be in violation of such laws, this may result in significant penalties, fines and/or sanctions imposed on the Company which could result in a material adverse effect
on the Company's reputation, financial performance and results of operations.

The Company is dependent on information technology systems.

The Company's operations depend, in part, upon information technology systems. The Company`s information technology systems are subject to disruption, damage or failure from a
number of sources, including, but not limited to, computer viruses, security breaches, natural disasters, power loss and defects in design. Although to date the Company has not experienced any
material losses relating to information technology system disruptions, damage or failure, there can be no assurance that it will not incur such losses in future. Any of these and other events could
result in information technology systems failures, operational delays, production downtimes, destruction or corruption of data, security breaches or other manipulation or improper use of the Company`s
systems and networks, any of which could have adverse effects on the Company`s reputation, results of operations and financial performance.

The Company may not be able to comply with the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.

Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 ("SOX") requires an annual assessment by management of the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial
reporting. Section 404 of SOX also requires an annual attestation report by the Company's independent auditors addressing the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial
reporting. The Company has completed its Section 404 assessment and received the auditors' attestation as of December 31, 2014.

If
the Company fails to maintain the adequacy of its internal control over financial reporting, as such standards are modified, supplemented or amended from time to time, the Company may not be able
to conclude that it has effective internal control over financial reporting in accordance with Section 404 of SOX. The Company's failure to satisfy the requirements of Section 404 of SOX
on an ongoing, timely basis could result in the loss of investor confidence in the reliability of its financial statements, which in turn could harm the Company's business and negatively impact the
trading price of its common shares or market value of its other securities. In addition, any failure to implement required new or improved controls, or difficulties encountered in their
implementation, could harm the Company's operating results or cause it to fail to meet its reporting obligations. Future acquisitions of companies may provide the Company with challenges in
implementing the required processes, procedures and
controls in its acquired operations. Acquired companies may not have disclosure controls and procedures or internal control over financial reporting that are as thorough or effective as those required
by securities laws currently applicable to the Company.

No
evaluation can provide complete assurance that the Company's internal control over financial reporting will prevent misstatement due to error or fraud or will detect or uncover all control issues
or instances of fraud, if any. The effectiveness of the Company's controls and procedures could also be limited by simple errors or faulty judgments. In addition, as the Company continues to expand,
the challenges involved in maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting will increase and will require that the Company continue to improve its internal control over financial
reporting. The Company cannot be certain that it will be successful in continuing to comply with Section 404 of SOX.

DIVIDENDS

The Company's current policy is to pay quarterly dividends on its common shares and, on February 11, 2015, the Company declared a quarterly dividend of
$0.08 per common share, payable on March 16, 2015. In 2014, the dividend paid was $0.32 per common share (quarterly payments of $0.08 per common share). In 2013, the dividend paid was $0.88 per
common share (quarterly payments of $0.22 per common share). In 2012, the dividend paid was $0.80 per common share (quarterly payments of $0.20 per common share). Although the Company expects to
continue paying a cash dividend, future dividends will be at the discretion of the Board and will be subject to factors such as the Company's earnings, financial condition and capital requirements.
The Company's bank credit facility contains a covenant that restricts the Company's ability to declare or pay dividends if certain events of default under the bank credit facility have occurred and
are continuing.

DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STRUCTURE

The Company's authorized capital consists of an unlimited number of shares of one class designated as common shares. All outstanding common shares of the
Company are fully paid and non-assessable. The holders of the common shares are entitled to one vote per share at meetings of shareholders and to receive dividends if, as and when declared by the
directors of the Company. In the event of voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company, after payment of all outstanding debts, the remaining assets of the Company
available for distribution would be distributed rateably to the holders of the common shares. Holders of the common shares of the Company have no pre-emptive, redemption, exchange or conversion
rights. The Company may not create any class or series of shares or make any modification to the provisions attaching to the Company's common shares without the affirmative vote of two-thirds of the
votes cast by the holders of the common shares.

RATINGS

The rating of the Company's notes (the "Notes") issued under the Note Purchase Agreements (as defined under "Material
Contracts  Note Purchase Agreements") by the rating agency Dominion Bond Rating Service ("DBRS") as at December 31, 2014 is BBB (low) with a
stable outlook.

DBRS's
long-term credit ratings are on a rating scale that ranges from AAA to D, which represents the range from highest to lowest quality of securities rated. DBRS's BBB rating assigned to the
Company's Notes is the fourth highest of the ten rating categories for long-term debt. Debt securities rated "BBB" are of adequate credit quality, and the capacity for the payment of financial
obligations is considered acceptable. However, the obligor is fairly susceptible to adverse changes in financial and economic conditions, or there may be other adverse conditions present which reduce
the strength of the obligor. A reference to "high" or "low" reflects the relative strength within the rating category. DBRS has also assigned a stable outlook to the rating, which indicates the
direction DBRS considers the rating is headed should present trends continue.

The
Company understands that the rating is based on, among other things, information furnished to the above rating agency by the Company and information obtained by the ratings agency from publicly
available sources. The credit rating given to the Company's Notes by the rating agency is not a recommendation to buy, hold or sell debt instruments since such rating does not comment as to market
price or suitability for a particular investor. There is no assurance that any rating will remain in effect for any given period of time or that any rating will not be revised or withdrawn entirely by
a rating agency in the future if, in its judgment, circumstances so warrant. Credit ratings are intended to provide investors with: (i) an independent measure of the credit quality of an issue

Notes:

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS AND REGULATORY ACTIONS

On March 8, 2012 and April 10, 2012, a Notice of Action and Statement of Claim (collectively, the "Ontario Claim") were issued by William Leslie,
AFA Livforsakringsaktiebolag and certain other entities against the Company and certain of its current and former officers and directors. On September 27, 2012, the plaintiffs issued a Fresh as
Amended Statement of Claim. The Fresh as Amended Statement of Claim alleges that the Company's public disclosure concerning water flow issues at the Goldex mine was misleading. The Ontario Claim was
issued by the plaintiffs on behalf of all persons and entities who acquired securities of the Company during the period March 26, 2010 to October 19, 2011, excluding persons resident or
domiciled in the Province of Quebec at the time they purchased or acquired such securities. The plaintiffs seek, among other things, damages of C$250 million. On April 17, 2013 an Order
was granted on consent certifying the action and granting leave for the claims under Section 138 of theSecurities Act(Ontario) to proceed. The
Company intends to vigorously defend the action on the merits.

On
March 28, 2012, the Company and certain of its current and former officers, some of whom also are or were directors of the Company, were named as respondents in a Motion for Leave to
Institute a Class Action and for the Appointment of a Representative Plaintiff (the "Quebec Motion"). The action is on behalf of all persons and entities with fewer than 50 employees
resident in Quebec who acquired securities of the Company between March 26, 2010 and October 19, 2011. The proposed class action is for damages of C$100 million arising as a
result of allegedly misleading disclosure by the Company concerning its operations at the Goldex mine. On October 15, 2012, the plaintiffs served an amended Quebec Motion seeking leave to
commence an action under theSecurities Act(Quebec) in addition to seeking authorization to institute a class action. On October 1, 2013, the
Quebec court certified the class action on terms identical to those set out in the consent Order granted in Ontario on April 17, 2013. No date has been set for the hearing to argue the class
action on the merits. The Company intends to vigorously defend the action on the merits.

INTEREST OF MANAGEMENT AND OTHERS IN MATERIAL TRANSACTIONS

Other than as described in this AIF, since January 1, 2013, no director, executive officer or 10% shareholder of the Company or any associate or
affiliate of any such person or company, has or had any material interest, direct or indirect, in any transaction that has materially affected or will materially affect the Company or any of its
subsidiaries.

TRANSFER AGENT AND REGISTRAR

The registrar and transfer agent for the Company's common shares is Computershare Trust Company of Canada, Toronto, Ontario.

MATERIAL CONTRACTS

The Company believes the following contracts constitute the only material contracts to which it is a party.

Credit Facility

On August 4, 2011, the Company amended and restated its credit facility with a group of financial institutions that provides a $1.2 billion unsecured revolving
bank credit facility (the "Credit Facility"). The Credit Facility was subsequently amended on July 20, 2012 and September 8, 2014. The Credit Facility matures and all indebtedness
thereunder is due and payable on June 22, 2019. The Company, with the consent of lenders representing at least 662/3% of the aggregate commitments under the Credit Facility, may
extend the term of the Credit Facility for additional one-year terms. The Credit Facility is available in multiple currencies through prime rate and base rate advances, priced at the applicable rate
plus a margin that ranges from 0.45% to 1.75% depending on the Company`s credit rating and through LIBOR advances, bankers' acceptances and letters of credit, priced at the applicable rate plus a
margin that ranges from 1.45% to 2.75% depending on the Company`s credit rating. The lenders under the Credit Facility are each paid a standby fee at a rate that ranges from 0.29% to 0.55% of the
undrawn portion of the facility, depending on the Company`s credit rating. Payment and performance of the Company's obligations under the Credit Facility are guaranteed by each of its significant
subsidiaries and certain of its other subsidiaries (the "Guarantors" and, together with the Company, each an "Obligor").

The
Credit Facility contains covenants that limit, among other things, the ability of an Obligor to:



The
Company is also required to maintain a total net debt to EBITDA ratio below a specified maximum value as well as a minimum tangible net worth. Events of default under the Credit Facility include,
among other things:

As
at March 12, 2015, there was approximately $471 million in the aggregate drawn under the Credit Facility (including outstanding letters of credit).

Letter of Credit Facility

On June 26, 2012, the Company entered into a letter of credit facility with The Bank of Nova Scotia, as lender, providing for a C$150 million uncommitted letter
of credit facility (the "Letter of Credit Facility"). On November 5, 2013, the Company amended the Letter of Credit Facility to increase the maximum aggregate amount that may be
outstanding thereunder at any time to C$175 million. On August 22, 2014, the Company and the lender agreed to increase the maximum aggregate amount that may be outstanding under the
Letter of Credit Facility to C$185 million. Under the terms of the Letter of Credit Facility, the Company may request to be issued one or more letters of credit in a maximum aggregate amount
outstanding at any time not exceeding C$185 million. The Letter of Credit Facility may be used by the Company to support (a) reclamation obligations of the Company or its subsidiaries or
(b) non-financial or performance obligations of the Company or its subsidiaries that are not related to reclamation obligations. If the Company fails to pay any amount of a reimbursement
obligation under the Letter of Credit Facility, including any interest thereon, on the date such amount is due, the overdue amount will bear interest at equal to 2% greater than the prime rate
(as calculated under the Letter of Credit Facility). Payment and performance of the Company's obligations under the Letter of Credit Facility are guaranteed by the Guarantors.

Events
of default under the Letter of Credit Facility include, among other things:



The
Letter of Credit Facility provides that upon an event of default, The Bank of Nova Scotia may declare immediately due and payable all amounts drawn under the Letter of Credit Facility.

As
at March 12, 2015, there was approximately C$181 million in the aggregate drawn under the Letter of Credit Facility.

Note Purchase Agreements

On April 7, 2010, the Company entered into a note purchase agreement with certain institutional investors, providing for the issuance of the 2010 Notes consisting of
$115 million 6.13% Series A senior notes due 2017, $360 million 6.67% Series B senior notes due 2020 and $125 million 6.77% Series C senior notes due 2022
(the "2010 Note Purchase

Agreement").
On July 24, 2012, the Company entered into another note purchase agreement with certain institutional investors, providing for the issuance of the 2012 Notes consisting of
$100 million 4.87% Series A senior notes due 2022 and $100 million 5.02% Series B senior notes due 2024 (together with the 2010 Note Purchase Agreement, the "Note Purchase
Agreements"). Payment and performance of the Company's obligations under the Note Purchase Agreements, the notes issued pursuant thereto and the obligations of the Guarantors under the guarantees are
guaranteed by the Guarantors.

The
Note Purchase Agreements contain restrictive covenants that limit, among other things, the ability of an Obligor to:



The
Company is also required to maintain the same financial ratios and the same minimum tangible net worth under the Note Purchase Agreements as under the Credit Facility. Events of default under the
Note Purchase Agreements include, among other things:



The
Note Purchase Agreements provide that, upon certain events of default, the notes automatically become due and payable without any further action. In addition, the Note Purchase Agreements contain
a "Most Favored Lender" clause which acts to incorporate into the Note Purchase Agreements any grace periods upon an event of default that are shorter in the Credit Facility than in the Note Purchase
Agreements.

SCHEDULE "A"    AUDIT COMMITTEE CHARTER OF THE COMPANY

This Charter shall govern the activities of the audit committee (the "Audit Committee") of the board of directors (the "Board of Directors") of Agnico Eagle Mines
Limited (the "Corporation").

I.    PURPOSE OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE

The
Audit Committee (the "Committee") shall: (a) assist the Board of Directors in its oversight responsibilities with respect to: (i) the integrity of the Corporation's and it's
subsidiaries financial statements, (ii) the Corporation's compliance with legal and regulatory requirements, (iii) the external auditor's qualifications and independence, and
(iv) the performance of the Corporation's internal and external audit functions and; (b) prepare any report of the Audit Committee required to be included in the Corporation's annual
report or proxy material. The head of the Corporation's internal audit function and the external auditors shall have direct and ready access to the Chair of the Committee.

The
Committee shall have the authority to delegate to one or more of its members, responsibility for developing recommendations for consideration by the Committee with respect to any of the matters
referred to in this Charter.

II.   COMPOSITION

The
Audit Committee shall be comprised of a minimum of three directors. No member of the Audit Committee shall be an officer or employee of the Corporation or any of its affiliates for the purposes of
the applicable corporate statute. Each member of the Audit Committee shall be an unrelated and independent director as determined by the Board of Directors in accordance with the applicable
requirements of the laws governing the Corporation, the applicable stock exchanges on which the Corporation's securities are listed and applicable securities regulatory authorities.
(See Schedule A for current requirements.)

Each
member of the Audit Committee shall be financially literate. Unless the Audit Committee shall otherwise determine, a member of the Audit Committee shall be considered to be financially literate
if he or she has the ability to read and understand a set of financial statements that present a breadth and level of complexity of accounting issues that are generally comparable to the breadth and
complexity of the issues that can reasonably be expected to be raised by the Corporation's financial statements.

At
least one member of the Audit Committee shall be a financial expert. (See Schedule B for definition.)

The
members of the Audit Committee shall be appointed by the Board of Directors annually at the first meeting of the Board of Directors after a meeting of the shareholders at which directors are

appoint the Chair from among its members.

No
member of the Audit Committee may earn fees from the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries other than directors fees (which fees may include cash and/or shares or restricted share units or other
in-kind consideration ordinarily available to directors, as well as all of the regular benefits that other directors receive). For greater certainty, no member of the Audit Committee shall accept any
consulting, advisory or other compensatory fee from the Corporation.

III.  MEETINGS

The
Audit Committee shall meet at least quarterly or more frequently as required.

As
a part of each meeting of the Audit Committee at which the Audit Committee recommends that the Board of Directors approve the annual audited financial statements or at which the Audit Committee
reviews the quarterly financial statements, the Audit Committee shall meet in a separate session with the external auditor and, if desired, with management and/or the internal auditor. In addition,
the Audit Committee or the Chair shall meet with management quarterly to review the Corporation's financial statements as described in Section IV.4 below and the Audit Committee or a
designated member of the Audit Committee shall meet with the external auditors to review the Corporation's financial statements on a quarterly or other regular basis as the Audit Committee may deem
appropriate.

SCHEDULE A  TO THE AUDIT COMMITTEE CHARTER OF THE CORPORATION

Unrelated Director

Under
the Toronto Stock Exchange rules, "independent director" means a director who is:



Independent Director

National Instrument  52-110

A
director is "independent" if he or she has no direct or indirect material relationship with the issuer. The following summarizes the major aspects of the National Instrument (NI52-110) relating to
the independence of a director.

Certain Relationships Automatically Exclude a Director From Serving on the Audit Committee

If
a director (or a member of the director's immediate family) has a specified type of relationship with the issuer (which includes the issuer's parent and subsidiary entities), then that
director will not be considered independent. NI52-110 assumes that the following persons have a material relationship with the issuer (and are therefore precluded from sitting on the
audit committee):





A-6AGNICO EAGLE
           ANNUAL INFORMATION FORM

The Materiality of Other Relationships is for the Board to Determine

If
a director has a direct or indirect relationship with the issuer, then it will be material if, in the view of the issuer's board of directors, the relationship could reasonably interfere with the
exercise of the director's independent judgement. These relationships may include commercial, charitable, industrial, banking, consulting, legal, accounting or familial relationships or any other
relationship that the board considers to be material.

Exceptions to the Independence Requirement

NI52-110 provides
exemptions from the independence requirements for:



New York Stock Exchange Rules

Under
the New York Stock Exchange rules, the following requirements must be met to qualify as an "Independent Director":



AGNICO EAGLEA-7ANNUAL INFORMATION FORM

---





Three Year "Cooling Off" Period.    For each of the categories above where a director is not (or is presumed not to be) independent,
there is a three-year "cooling off" period. Accordingly, the existence of the prohibited relationship at any time during the preceding three years is presumed to impair independence.

Sarbanes-Oxley Act



Exemption Authority.    The Commission may exempt from the requirements of subparagraph (b) a particular relationship with respect to
audit committee members, as the Commission determines appropriate in light of the circumstances.
