EXPLANATORY NOTE



Eldorado Gold Corporation (the “Company”
or the “Registrant”) is a Canadian issuer eligible to file its annual report pursuant to Section 13 of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), on Form 40-F pursuant to the multi-jurisdictional disclosure
system of the Exchange Act. The Company is a “foreign private issuer” as defined in Rule 3b-4 under the Exchange Act.
The equity securities of the Company are accordingly exempt from Sections 14(a), 14(b), 14(c), 14(f) and 16 of the Exchange Act
pursuant to Rule 3a12-3 of the Exchange Act.



FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS



This annual report on Form 40-F and
the exhibits attached hereto contain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the United States Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward looking statements concern the Company’s anticipated results and developments
in the Company’s operations in future periods, planned exploration and development of its properties, plans related to its
business and other matters that may occur in the future. These statements relate to analyses and other information that are based
on forecasts of future results, estimates of amounts not yet determinable and assumptions of management.



Statements concerning reserves and mineral
resource estimates may also be deemed to constitute forward-looking statements to the extent that they involve estimates of the
mineralization that will be encountered if our properties are developed, and in the case of mineral reserves, such statements reflect
the conclusion based on certain assumptions that a mineral deposit can be economically exploited. Any statements that express or
involve discussions with respect to predictions, expectations, beliefs, plans, projections, objectives, assumptions or future events
or performance (often, but not always, using words or phrases such as “expects” or “does not expect”, “is
expected”, “anticipates” or “does not anticipate”, “plans”, “estimates” or
“intends”, or stating that certain actions, events or results “may”, “could”, “would”,
“might” or “will” be taken, occur or be achieved) are not statements of historical fact and may be forward-looking
statements. Forward-looking statements are subject to a variety of known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which
could cause actual events or results to differ from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements, including, without
limitation:



- volatility of global and local economic
climate and geopolitical risk;
- title, permitting and licensing risks,
including the risks of obtaining and maintaining the validity and enforceability of necessary permits and licenses, the timing
of obtaining and renewing such permits and licenses, and risks of defective title to mineral property;
- gold and other metal price volatility
and the impact of any related hedging activities
- development, mining and operational risk,
including timing, hazards and losses that are uninsured or uninsurable;
- risks of operating in foreign countries
in which we currently or may in the future conduct business, including controls, laws, regulations, changes in mining regimes or
governments, and political or economic developments;
- regulatory restrictions, including environmental
regulatory restrictions and liability, including actual costs of reclamation;





- changes in law and regulatory requirements
or policies, including permitting, foreign investment, environmental, tax and health and safety laws and regulations;
- competition for mineral properties and
merger and acquisition targets;
- environmental risks, including use and
transport of regulated substances;
- infrastructure, water, energy, equipment
and other input availability and durability, and their cost and impact on capital and operating costs, exploration, development
and production schedules;
- community and non-governmental actions
and regulatory risks, including the possibility of a shutdown at any of our operations;
- perceptions of the local people about
foreign companies operating on their land;
- ability to maintain positive relationships
with the communities in which we operate and potential loss of reputation;
- subjectivity of estimating mineral reserves
and resources and the reliance on available data and assumptions and judgments used in interpretation of such data and depletion
of grades or quantities of mineral reserves;
- discrepancies between actual and estimated
production, mineral reserves and resources and metallurgical recoveries;
- speculative and uncertain nature of gold
and other mineral exploration;
- risks of not meeting production and cost
targets or estimates;
- the
loss of key employees and our ability to attract and retain qualified personnel;
- employee health and safety risks and
human rights;
- labour disputes, labour shortages and
risks associated with unionized labour;
- prices for energy inputs, labour, material
costs, supplies and services (including shipping) remaining consistent with expectations;
- risk associated with co-ownership (including
joint ventures);
- impact on operations of compliance and
non-compliance with anti-corruption, anti-bribery and sanction laws;
- increased capital requirements and the
ability to obtain financing;
- currency exchange fluctuations and the
impact of any related hedging activities;
- risks associated with maintaining substantial
levels of indebtedness, including potential financial constraints on operations, interest rate risk and credit rating risk;
- the risks that the integration of acquired
businesses may take longer than expected, the anticipated benefits of the integration may be less than estimated or the costs of
acquisition may be higher than anticipated;
- the impact of acquisitions, dispositions,
monetization, mergers, other business combinations or transactions, including effect of changes in our portfolio of projects on
our current and future operations, capital requirements, and financial condition and ability to complete such transactions;



- litigation risks, including the uncertainties
inherent in current and future legal challenges we are, or may become, a party to;
- share capital dilution and share price
volatility;
- taxation, including change in tax laws
and interpretations of tax laws;
- financial reporting risks;
- failure, security breaches or disruption
of our information technology systems; and
- risks related to natural disasters and
climate change.

This list is not exhaustive of the factors
that may affect our forward-looking statements. Some of the important risks and uncertainties that could affect forward-looking
statements are described further in the exhibits attached to this annual report on Form 40-F, including those described in the
Annual Information Form (“AIF”) of the Company filed as Exhibit 99.1 to this annual report on Form 40-F and
incorporated by reference herein. Should one or more of these risks and uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions
prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those described in the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements
are made based on management’s beliefs, estimates and opinions on the date the statements are made, and the Company undertakes
no obligation to update forward-looking statements if these beliefs, estimates and opinions or other circumstances should change,
except as required by law. Investors are cautioned against attributing undue certainty to forward-looking statements.



NOTE TO UNITED STATES READERS -

DIFFERENCES IN UNITED STATES AND CANADIAN
REPORTING PRACTICES



The Company is permitted, under the
multi-jurisdictional disclosure system adopted by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”),
to prepare this annual report on Form 40-F in accordance with Canadian disclosure requirements, which differ from those of the
United States. The Company has prepared its financial statements, which are filed as Exhibit 99.2 to this annual report
on Form 40-F, in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”), as issued by the International
Accounting Standards Board and they are not comparable to financial statements of United States companies.











RESOURCE AND RESERVE ESTIMATES



The Company’s AIF filed as Exhibit
99.1 to this annual report on Form 40-F and management’s discussion and analysis for the fiscal year ended December 31,
2016 filed as Exhibit 99.3 to this annual report on Form 40-F have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of
the securities laws in effect in Canada, which differ from the requirements of United States securities laws. The terms “mineral
reserve”, “proven mineral reserve” and “probable mineral reserve” are Canadian mining terms as defined
in accordance with Canadian National Instrument 43-101 – Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects (“NI 43-101”)
and the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (the “CIM”) - CIM Definition Standards on Mineral
Resources and Mineral Reserves, adopted by the CIM Council, as amended. These definitions differ from the definitions in SEC
Industry Guide 7 under the United States Securities Act of 1993, as amended (the “Securities Act”). Under SEC
Industry Guide 7 standards, a “final” or “bankable” feasibility study is required to report reserves, the
three-year historical average price is used in any reserve or cash flow analysis to designate reserves and the primary environmental
analysis or report must be filed with the appropriate governmental authority.



In addition, the terms “mineral
resource”, “measured mineral resource”, “indicated mineral resource” and “inferred mineral
resource” are defined in and required to be disclosed by NI 43-101; however, these terms are not defined terms under SEC
Industry Guide 7 and are normally not permitted to be used in reports and registration statements filed with the SEC. Investors
are cautioned not to assume that any part or all of mineral deposits in these categories will ever be converted into reserves.
“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 all or any part 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 all or any part of an inferred mineral resource exists
or is economically or legally mineable. Disclosure of “contained ounces” in a resource is permitted disclosure under
Canadian regulations; however, the SEC normally only permits issuers to report mineralization that does not constitute “reserves”
by SEC Industry Guide 7 standards as in place tonnage and grade without reference to unit measures.



Accordingly, information contained in
this annual report and the documents incorporated by reference herein contain descriptions of our mineral deposits that may not
be comparable to similar information made public by U.S. companies subject to the reporting and disclosure requirements under the
United States federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder.



CURRENCY



Unless otherwise indicated, all dollar
amounts in this annual report on Form 40-F are in United States dollars. The exchange rate of Canadian dollars into United States
dollars, on December 31, 2016, based upon the noon rate of exchange as quoted by the Bank of Canada, was U.S.$1.00 = Cdn.$1.3427.



ANNUAL INFORMATION FORM

31, 2016 is filed as Exhibit 99.1 to this annual report on Form 40-F, and is incorporated by reference herein.





AUDITED ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

of the Company for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, including the report of the independent auditor thereon, are filed
as Exhibit 99.2 to this annual report on Form 40-F, and are incorporated by reference herein.









MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND
ANALYSIS



The Company’s management’s discussion and analysis
for the year ended December 31, 2016 (“MD&A”), is filed as Exhibit 99.3 to this annual report on Form 40-F,
and is incorporated by reference herein.





TAX MATTERS



Purchasing, holding, or disposing of
the Company’s securities may have tax consequences under the laws of the United States and Canada that are not described

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES



Disclosure Controls and Procedures



At the end of the period covered by
this annual report on Form 40-F for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016, an evaluation was carried out under the supervision
of, and the with the participation of, the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”)
and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure
controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act). Based upon that evaluation, the Company’s CEO
and CFO have concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were designed and effective to give reasonable assurance that
the information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded,
processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and (ii) gathered and
reported to senior management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely
decisions regarding public disclosure.



Management’s Annual Report
on Internal Control over Financial Reporting



Management is responsible for establishing
and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act. The Company’s
management has employed a framework consistent with Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(c), to evaluate the Company’s internal control
over financial reporting described below. A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to
provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external
purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.



A company’s internal control over
financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail,
accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance
that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations
of management and directors of the company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of
unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial
statements. It should be noted that a control system, no matter how well conceived or operated, can only provide reasonable assurance,
not absolute assurance, that the objectives of the control system are met. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness
to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree
of compliance with policies and procedures may deteriorate.



Management, including the CEO and CFO,
is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, and used the framework issued
by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013)(COSO) to evaluate the effectiveness of our controls
in 2016. Based on this evaluation, management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as at
December 31, 2016 and provided a reasonable assurance of the reliability of our financial reporting and preparation of financial
statements.



The Company is required to provide an
auditor’s attestation report on its internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2016. In this annual report
on Form 40-F, the Company’s independent registered auditor, KPMG LLP, states its opinion as to the effectiveness of the Company’s
internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2016. KPMG LLP has audited the Company’s financial statements
included in this annual report on Form 40-F and has issued an attestation report on
the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.











Attestation Report of the Registered
Public Accounting Firm



The attestation report of KPMG LLP on
the Company’s internal control over financial reporting is included in the audited consolidated financial statements of the
Company for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, which are filed as Exhibit 99.2 and incorporated by reference in
this annual report on Form 40-F.



Changes in Internal Control over
Financial Reporting



There have been no changes in the Company’s
internal control over financial reporting during its fiscal year ended December 31, 2016 that have materially affected, or are
reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Management used appropriate
procedures to ensure internal controls were in place during and after the implementation.



CORPORATE GOVERNANCE



The Company’s Board of Directors
(the “Board of Directors”) is responsible for the Company’s corporate governance and has a separately designated
standing Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee, established in accordance with Section 303A.04 of the NYSE Listed Company
Manual, and a Compensation Committee, established in accordance with Section 303A.05 of the NYSE Listed Company Manual. The Board
of Directors has determined that all the members of the Compensation Committee and the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee
are independent, based on the criteria for independence prescribed by Section 303A.02 of the NYSE Listed Company Manual.



Compensation Committee



Compensation of the Company’s
CEO and all other executive officers is recommended to the Board of Directors for determination by the Compensation Committee.
The Company’s Compensation Committee is comprised of Jonathan A. Rubenstein (chair), Robert R. Gilmore, Geoffrey A. Handley
and Steven P. Reid. The Compensation Committee is responsible for: assisting management in developing the Company’s compensation
structure, including the compensation policies and compensation programs for the Company’s directors and executives; reviewing
the results of the annual Say on Pay advisory vote when considering future executive and director compensation programs; determining
where there is a need to engage with shareholders on compensation and related matters and conduct such engagement in coordination
with Management, as appropriate; and assessing the performance of the Company’s CEO every year and recommending the compensation
of the Company’s CEO and the Company’s other executive officers to the Board of Directors for review and approval.
The Compensation Committee conducts a thorough compensation review every year to assess: the competitiveness of the Company’s
cash and stock-based compensation for the Company’s directors and executives; whether overall executive compensation continues
to support the Company’s goals of attracting, motivating and retaining executives with exceptional leadership and management
skills; and the overall compensation packages for the Company’s senior executives and whether the components are applied
appropriately. The Compensation Committee also reviews and approves the terms of employment annually and evaluates the performance
of the CEO for the prior year. The Company’s CEO cannot be present during the Compensation Committee’s deliberations
or vote. The Company’s Compensation Committee’s Terms of Reference is available on the Company’s website at www.eldoradogold.com.



Corporate Governance and Nominating
Committee



Nominees for the election to the Board
of Directors are recommended by the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee. The Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee
is comprised of Pamela M. Gibson (chair), George Albino, K. Ross Cory, Jonathan A. Rubenstein, and John Webster. The Corporate
Governance and Nominating Committee’s responsibilities include: regularly reviewing the Company’s corporate governance
policies and practices; monitoring the Company’s risk management program; reviewing the size and composition of the Board
of Directors annually; facilitating the succession and nomination of directors to the Board of Directors; identifying new directors
and managing the Board of Directors’ nomination process, Board of Directors’ committee appointments and assessment
process; and evaluating the Board of Directors’ competencies and defining the skills and experience necessary for an effective
Board of Directors. The Company’s Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee Terms of Reference is available on the
Company’s website at www.eldoradogold.com.











AUDIT COMMITTEE



The Company’s Board of Directors
has a separately designated standing Audit Committee established in accordance with Section 3(a)(58)(A) of the Exchange Act and
Section 303A.06 of the NYSE Listed Company Manual. The Company’s Audit Committee is comprised of John Webster (chair), K.
Ross Cory, Michael A. Price and Robert R. Gilmore all of whom, in the opinion of the Company’s Board of Directors, are independent
(as determined under Rule 10A-3 of the Exchange Act and Section 303A.02 of the NYSE Listed Company Manual). All four members of
the Audit Committee are financially literate, meaning they are able to read and understand the Company’s financial statements
and to understand the breadth and level of complexity of the issues that can reasonably be expected to be raised by the Company’s
financial statements. The Audit Committee meets the composition requirements set forth by Section 303A.07 of NYSE Listed Company
Manual.



The members of the Audit Committee do
not have fixed terms and are appointed and replaced from time to time by resolution of the Board of Directors.



The Audit Committee meets with the CEO
and the CFO of the Company and the Company’s independent auditors to review and inquire into matters affecting financial
reporting, the system of internal accounting and financial controls, as well as audit procedures and audit plans. The Audit Committee
also recommends to the Board of Directors which independent registered public auditing firm should be appointed by the Company.
In addition, the Audit Committee reviews and recommends to the Board of Directors for approval the annual and interim financial
statements, the MD&A, and undertakes other activities required by exchanges on which the Company’s securities are listed
and by regulatory authorities to which the Company is held responsible.



The full text of the Audit Committee
Terms of Reference is attached as Schedule A to the Company’s AIF, which is filed as Exhibit 99.1 to this annual report
on Form 40-F.



Audit Committee Financial Expert



The Company’s Board of Directors
has determined that both Robert R. Gilmore and John Webster qualify as financial experts (as defined in Item 407(d)(5)(ii) of Regulation
S-K under the Exchange Act) and that each are independent (as determined under Exchange Act Rule 10A-3 and Section 303A.02 of the
NYSE Listed Company Manual).



PRE-APPROVAL OF AUDIT AND NON-AUDIT
SERVICES PROVIDED BY

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR



The Audit Committee pre-approves all
audit and non-audit services to be provided to the Company by its independent auditor. Non-audit services that are prohibited to
be provided to the Company by its independent auditors may not be pre-approved. In addition, prior to the granting of any pre-approval,
the Audit Committee must be satisfied that the performance of the services in question will not compromise the independence of
the independent auditor. Since the enactment of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, all non-audit services performed by the Company’s
auditor have been pre-approved by the Audit Committee of the Company. In 2005, the Company’s Audit Committee determined that
non-audit services can only be provided by the Company’s independent registered public auditing firm if it has been pre-approved
by the Audit Committee. Generally, these services are provided by other firms and management has established agreements with other
service providers for such non-audit services. All audit and non-audit fees paid to KPMG LLP, for the financial year ended December
31, 2016, were pre-approved by the Audit Committee and none were approved on the basis of the de minimis exemption set forth in
Rule 2-01(c)(7)(i)(C) of Regulation S-X.
