 CAUTIONARY STATEMENT ON FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION 

Certain information contained in this press release, including any information as to Barrick’s strategy, plans or
future performance, constitutes “forward-looking statements”. All statements, other than statements of historical fact, are forward-looking statements. The word “intend” and similar expressions identify forward-looking
statements. In particular, this press release contains forward-looking statements including, without limitation, with respect to Barrick’s management structure and intention to appoint a successor to Mr. Dushnisky in due course.
Forward-looking statements are necessarily based upon a number of estimates and assumptions including material estimates and assumptions related to the factors set forth below that, while considered reasonable by the Company as at the date of this
press release in light of management’s experience and perception of current conditions and expected developments, are inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies. Known and unknown
factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements, and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements and information. Such factors include, but are not limited to: fluctuations in
the spot and forward price of gold, copper, or certain other commodities; changes in national and local government legislation, taxation, controls or regulations and/ or changes in the administration of laws, policies and practices, expropriation or
nationalization of property and political or economic developments in Canada, the United States, and other jurisdictions in which the Company or its affiliates do or may carry on business in the future; and our ability to successfully complete
transactions. 
 Many of these uncertainties and contingencies can affect our actual results and could cause actual
results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in any forward-looking statements made by, or on behalf of, us. Readers are cautioned that forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance. All of the forward-looking
statements made in this press release are qualified by these cautionary statements. Specific reference is made to the most recent Form 40-F/Annual Information Form on file with the SEC and Canadian provincial
securities regulatory authorities for a more detailed discussion of some of the factors underlying forward-looking statements and the risks that may affect Barrick’s ability to achieve the expectations set forth in the forward-looking
statements contained in this press release. 
 Barrick disclaims any intention or obligation to update or revise any
forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by applicable law.
