**NOTICE OF ANNUAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS <br>to be held June 19, 2026**

**MANAGEMENT INFORMATION CIRCULAR**

**Dated: May 4, 2026**

------

**LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS**

Dear Fellow Lithium Argentina AG Shareholders,

On behalf of the board of directors (the "**Board**") of Lithium Argentina AG ("**Lithium Argentina**", the "**Company**", "**we**" or "**our**"), it is our pleasure to invite you to attend the annual meeting of shareholders on June 19, 2026 at 5:00 p.m. (Central European Summer Time) to be held simultaneously at Regus, Dammstrasse 19, 6300 Zug, Switzerland and at Sun Valley Lodge, 1 Sun Valley Road, Sun Valley, Idaho, USA (the "**Meeting**"). The two locations will be linked via a live video and audio link.

This management information circular (the "**Circular**") provides you with information for purposes of voting on proposals of business that will be considered at the Meeting. Shareholders will be asked to consider and vote upon routine annual general meeting proposals; however, as this is our second annual meeting as a Swiss-domiciled company, shareholders will note certain additional proposals required under Swiss corporate law being put to shareholders for approval including, but not limited to: approval of the Swiss consolidated and Swiss statutory standalone financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2025; the appropriation of the accumulated loss for fiscal year 2025; the election of the chair and the members of the governance, nomination, compensation and leadership committee; election of the Swiss statutory auditor; on an advisory basis, the approval of our approach to executive compensation; the approval of the compensation to the Board and executive management team; the approval of the Swiss statutory compensation report; and the election of the Swiss statutory independent voting representative.

Lithium Argentina made significant progress this past year, establishing Cauchari-Olaroz as a stable, cash- generating operation while advancing its next phase of our growth.

At Cauchari-Olaroz, production exceeded 34,000 tonnes lithium carbonate, reaching the high end of our guidance range, and ending the year near capacity with fourth quarter production at 97% capacity. Strong operational performance translated into significantly lower costs.

These improvements were broad-based. Reagents, maintenance, camp services, overhead all trended lower, reflecting ongoing optimization efforts following ramp-up. These gains were driven not only by higher volumes, but by sustainable reductions in variable costs.

This performance translated into strong financial results. Despite a weaker lithium price environment in 2025, Cauchari-Olaroz generated cash during 2025.

In parallel, we were able to make meaningful progress across our growth pipeline. This included the advancement of the consolidation of PPG into a new joint venture with Ganfeng Lithium Group Co, Ltd. ("**Ganfeng**"), which when complete will enable a more efficient development plan as outlined in the scoping study we released, as well as the submission of RIGI applications for both PPG and the Stage 2 expansion at Cauchari-Olaroz.

We are incredibly proud of what we have accomplished. We have a world-class team, a proven operating track record and two of the largest and highest quality lithium brine resources globally. This is complemented by an improving investment environment in Argentina and strong market demand fundamentals driven by EV adoptions and accelerating demand from energy storage buildouts.

In 2025 we delivered on our priorities, establishing a strong operating and cost foundation, strengthened our balance sheet, and have taken meaningful steps to de-risk our growth pipeline.

Looking ahead, our focus is clear. We are building a scalable lithium platform in Argentina; with the goal, through our partnership with Ganfeng, to grow our production from approximately up to 40,000 tonnes per annum lithium carbonate expected in 2026 to over 200,000 tonnes per annum targeted through a phased development strategy. With Cauchari-Olaroz as the foundation, we are advancing a disciplined path towards that goal and position Lithium Argentina as one of the leading lithium platforms globally.

Your votes are important to us. We encourage you to read the Circular in advance to allow meaningful participation in the voting process.

On behalf of everyone at Lithium Argentina, we appreciate your ongoing support of our Company.

**VOTING INFORMATION**

**<u>PROXY SOLICITATION</u>**

The Company is providing this Circular to Shareholders to solicit proxies for use at the annual general meeting (the "**Meeting**" or "**2026 Meeting**") of Shareholders to be held simultaneously at Regus, Dammstrasse 19, 6300 Zug, Switzerland and at Sun Valley Lodge, 1 Sun Valley Road, Sun Valley, Idaho, USA at 5:00 p.m. (Central European Summer Time) on June 19, 2026. The two locations will be linked via a live video and audio link.

The Board of Directors of the Company (the "**Board**") is primarily soliciting proxies by mail, but may also contact Shareholders by telephone, email, internet or other means of communication. The Company will pay the costs of soliciting proxies. The Company may also pay reasonable costs incurred by intermediaries who are registered owners of Common Shares (such as brokers, dealers, other registrants under applicable securities laws, nominees and/or custodians) to deliver the notice package to non-registered (beneficial) holders of such Common Shares. The Company will provide, without cost to such persons, upon request to the Vice President, Investor Relations and ESG of the Company, additional copies of the foregoing documents required for this purpose. The cost of solicitation will be borne by the Company. The Company may utilize the Broadridge QuickVoteTM service to assist Shareholders with voting their Common Shares.

**<u>WHO CAN VOTE</u>**

Holders of Common Shares as of the close of business on the Record Date are entitled to vote at the Meeting as a Shareholder. Only Shareholders whose names have been entered in the register of shareholders as of the close of business on the Record Date will be entitled to receive notice of the Meeting and shall have one vote per Common Share at the Meeting.

The notice of meeting (the "**Notice of Meeting**"), the Circular and proxy materials are being made available to each Shareholder registered in the Company's share register as of close of business on April 29, 2026. Any additional Shareholders who are registered in the Company's share register as of the close of business on June 1, 2026, being the Record Date, but who were not registered in the share register as of April 29, 2026, will receive a copy of the Notice of Meeting, the Circular and proxy materials as soon as practicable after June 1, 2026. Shareholders not registered in the Company's share register as of the Record Date will not be entitled to vote or grant proxies to vote at the Meeting. If you are a registered or non-registered Shareholder as of the Record Date, you may grant a proxy to vote on each of the proposals and any modification to any of the proposals or other matter on which voting is permissible under Swiss law and which is properly presented at the Meeting for consideration.

------

The Company has requested that banks, brokerage firms and other nominees who hold their registered Common Shares on behalf of the owners of the registered Common Shares (such owners are often referred to as "non-registered Shareholders") as of the close of business on April 29, 2026 to forward either a notice or a printed copy of these materials, together with a proxy or VIF (as defined below), to those non-registered Shareholders. The Company will make such request again on the Record Date.

The Company's articles of association (the "**Articles**") provide that the quorum for the transaction of business at the Meeting is at least two Shareholders who hold in aggregate at least 5% of the issued Common Shares entitled to vote at the Meeting.

Proposals 1 through 9, 11, 12 and 14 require the affirmative vote of a simple majority of the votes present or represented at the Meeting. An "ABSTAIN" or invalid ballot will have the effect of a vote "AGAINST" these proposals.

Shareholder approval of the appointment for the financial year 2026, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, Chartered Professional Accountants, as auditor of the Company, is not required by law or by our Articles or by-laws, but Shareholders' views are important to the Board and the ARC. If Shareholders do not appoint for the financial year 2026, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, Chartered Professional Accountants, as auditor of the Company, our Board and ARC will reconsider PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, Chartered Professional Accountants, as auditor of the Company.

Proposals 10 and 13 are advisory and non-binding on Lithium Argentina, however, the Board will review voting results on these proposals and will give consideration to such results.

**<u>VOTER TYPES</u>**

Voters fall into two categories:

* Registered Shareholders, meaning Shareholders who hold Common Shares as record holder, that is Common Shares held directly in their names with our transfer agent, Computershare Investor Services Inc.; or

* Non-registered Shareholders, meaning beneficial Shareholders who do not hold Common Shares as record holder, that is Common Shares held indirectly in the name of an intermediary such as a brokerage firm, bank, trust company or clearing agency (for example, The Canadian Depository for Securities Limited commonly known as CDS, or The Depository Trust Company).

**<u>HOW TO VOTE</u>**

Voting occurs at the Meeting by attending the Meeting in person and voting at the Meeting or by appointing a third party, who need not be a Shareholder, as a proxy to vote at the Meeting, or by submitting voting instructions electronically over the internet or by telephone or by return of the proxy by mail to the independent voting rights representative for it to vote at the Meeting.

***<u>Registered Shareholders</u>***

Registered Shareholders may only vote their Common Shares if they or third parties appointed as their proxies are present at the Meeting. In addition, registered Shareholders may appoint as their proxy the independent voting rights representative to vote their Common Shares in the enclosed proxy and returning the completed proxy by mail to the address indicated below, or by submitting voting instructions electronically over the internet or by telephone, as also indicated below. The independent voting rights representative will vote all Common Shares for which it is the proxy as specified by the Shareholders on the proxy or in its electronic voting instructions.

In that case, the Shareholder must sign the proxy and deliver it to the person named, and the person named must be present, present appropriate identification and vote at the Meeting.

Common Shares owned by registered Shareholders who have timely submitted their proxy instructions and specifically indicated their votes, will be voted by the independent voting rights representative as indicated. Common Shares owned by registered Shareholders who have timely submitted their proxy instructions and have not specifically indicated their votes, instruct the independent voting rights representative to vote in the manner recommended by the Board. If any modifications to agenda proposals identified in the Notice of Meeting or other matters on which voting is permissible under Swiss law are properly presented at the Meeting for consideration, you are deemed to instruct the independent voting rights representative, in the absence of other specific instructions, to vote in accordance with the recommendations of the Board.

The VIF should be completed, signed and returned to the non-registered Shareholder's intermediary. Non- registered Shareholders can also vote by telephone or online per the VIF instructions. Non-registered Shareholders whose intermediary has appointed Broadridge as their proxy communications agent are asked to return their VIF using the following methods on the date noted on their VIF:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;a) Mail - complete, sign, date and mail your VIF to Broadridge in the enclosed business reply envelope or by mail to:

DATA PROCESSING CENTRE

P.O. BOX 3700 STN INDUSTRIAL PARK <br>MARKHAM, ON, L3R 9Z9

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;b) Internet voting -online at <u>www.proxyvote.com</u> using the 16-digit number located at the bottom of your VIF; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;c) Telephone -by telephone at CANADA (ENGLISH) 1-800-474-7493 or (FRENCH) 1-800-474-7501, or US 1-800-454-8683.

Should a non-registered Shareholder who received one of the above forms wish to vote at the Meeting (or have another person attend and vote on behalf of the non-registered Shareholder), the non-registered Shareholder must follow the instructions on the VIF to indicate that such other person will attend and vote at the Meeting. **Non-registered Shareholders should carefully follow the instructions contained in the VIF of their intermediaries and contact them directly with any questions regarding the voting of Common Shares owned by them.**

Voting instructions must be received in sufficient time to allow for the VIF to be forwarded by the intermediary to the independent voting rights representative at least one business day before the proxy submission deadline of 5:00 p.m. (Central European Summer Time) on June 17, 2026.

To attend and vote at the Meeting in person, U.S. non-registered Shareholders must first obtain a valid legal proxy from their intermediary. The U.S. non-registered Shareholder must follow the instructions from their intermediary included with the notice package, or contact their intermediary to request a legal proxy form.

------

**<u>VOTING CHANGES</u>**

Shareholders can make changes to how they have voted their Common Shares by proxy in advance of the Meeting.

A registered Shareholder who has given a proxy may revoke it at any time not less than 48 hours (excluding Saturdays, Sundays and holidays) before the Meeting time or, if adjourned, any reconvened meeting time by sending written notice of revocation signed by the registered Shareholder or their authorized attorney (or for corporations who are registered Shareholders, by an authorized officer or attorney under the corporate seal) to Broadridge:

DATA PROCESSING CENTRE

P.O. BOX 3700 STN INDUSTRIAL PARK

MARKHAM, ON, L3R 9Z9

A proxy may also be revoked by changing your electronic voting instructions submitted online or by telephone, or in any other manner permitted by law. A revocation of a proxy does not affect any matter on which a vote has been taken prior to the time of the revocation. A registered Shareholder or duly appointed proxyholder attending the Meeting has the right to vote and, if he or she does so, his or her proxy is nullified with respect to the matters such person votes upon and any subsequent matters thereafter to be voted upon at the Meeting.

A non-registered Shareholder wishing to change their vote must, at least seven days before the Meeting, contact their intermediary to change their vote and follow their intermediary's instructions. A revocation of a proxy does not affect any matter on which a vote has been taken prior to the revocation.

**<u>SPECIFIC VOTING INSTRUCTIONS</u>**

Common Shares represented by the independent voting rights representative will be voted by the independent voting rights representative at the Meeting in accordance with the specific instructions made by the respective holder. Except with respect to broker non-votes described below where no choice is specified, holders of Common Shares who have timely submitted voting instructions, but have not specifically indicated their votes are deemed to instruct the independent voting rights representative to vote in the manner recommended by the Board. If any modifications to agenda proposals identified in the Notice of Meeting or other matters on which voting is permissible under Swiss law are properly presented at the Meeting for consideration, you instruct the independent voting rights representative, in the absence of other specific instructions, to vote in accordance with the recommendations of the Board. At the time of posting this Circular in accordance with Notice-and-Access (as defined below), the Board knows of no such amendments, variations or other matters to come before the Meeting.

We may periodically receive voting updates in advance of the Meeting. The disclosure of vote information to the Company in advance of the Meeting will comply with applicable requirements. Shareholders seeking to benefit from the special Swiss voting confidentiality rules (only allowing for aggregate reporting of instructions submitted to the independent proxy no earlier than three business days before the Meeting) need to be registered as Shareholders in the Company's share register on or before the Record Date and vote as registered Shareholders.

Under rules of the New York Stock Exchange ("**NYSE**"), brokers and other intermediaries holding shares in street name for their customers are generally required to vote these shares in the manner directed by their customers. If their customers do not give any direction, brokers may vote the securities at their discretion on routine matters, but not on non-routine matters. Other than approving the Swiss consolidated financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2025 and the Swiss statutory standalone financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2025, together with the respective reports of the auditor thereon; approving the appropriation of the accumulated loss for fiscal year 2025;appointing for the financial year 2026, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, Chartered Professional Accountants, as auditor of the Company; electing for the financial year 2026 PricewaterhouseCoopers AG, Zug, Switzerland, as Swiss Statutory Auditor; and electing the Swiss statutory independent voting representative for a term extending until completion of the next annual general meeting, the Company believes that all of the other matters to be voted on at the Meeting are non-routine matters and brokers governed by NYSE rules may not vote the securities held in street name for their customers in relation to these proposals of business without direction from their customers. The absence of a vote on a non-routine matter is referred to as a broker non-vote. Broker non-votes will have no impact on the election of directors or any other matter to be voted on at the Meeting that is a non-routine matter. A broker non-vote is not considered to be an "ABSTAIN" vote.

**<u>NOTICE TO U.S. SHAREHOLDERS</u>**

This Circular is prepared in accordance with applicable disclosure requirements in Canada. As a "foreign private issuer" under the United States Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "**U.S. Exchange Act**"), the Company is exempt from proxy rules under the U.S. Exchange Act. This means that the content of this Circular may be different from proxy statements prepared by U.S. domestic issuers in accordance with the proxy rules under the U.S. Exchange Act.

**<u>NOTICE-AND-ACCESS</u>**

The Company is using the notice-and-access provisions ("**Notice-and-Access**") under National Instrument 54-101 - *Communications with Beneficial Owners of Securities of a Reporting Issuer* and National Instrument 51-102 - *Continuous Disclosure Obligations* to distribute the proxy-related materials (including this Circular), the audited financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2025 and related auditor's report and MD&A to Shareholders. This allows the Company to post electronic versions of the Meeting materials on SEDAR+ at <u>www.sedarplus.ca</u>, and on the Company's website at <u>https://investors.lithium-argentina.com</u> instead of mailing paper copies to Shareholders. Notice-and-Access is more environmentally friendly, reduces the use of paper and certain physical delivery-related emissions, and more cost effective for the Company, as it reduces print and mailing costs.

Shareholders still have the right to request paper copies of the Meeting materials posted online by the Company under Notice-and-Access if they choose. The Company will not use the "stratification" procedure for Notice-and-Access, where a paper copy of the Meeting materials is provided along with the notice package. Shareholders may ask the Company additional questions about Notice-and-Access by calling the following numbers:

Canadian Proxy Line:

The Company will provide paper copies of the Meeting materials including proxy-related materials such as the Circular, the audited financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2025, the auditor's report and the related MD&A free of charge, for a period of up to one year from the date the Circular is filed on SEDAR+ at <u>www.sedarplus.ca</u> and on EDGAR at the website of the SEC at <u>www.sec.gov/edgar</u>.

Shareholders who wish to receive a paper copy of the Meeting materials in advance of the Meeting should submit their request no later than June 9, 2026, to allow themselves sufficient time to receive and review the materials before the proxy submission deadline of 5:00 p.m. (Central European Summer Time) on June 17, 2026. Materials will be sent within three business days of receiving a request if the request is received before the Meeting date, or within 10 days if received on or after the Meeting date.

**<u>SHAREHOLDER PROPOSALS</u>**

Under Swiss law, a Shareholder of record can request in writing for an item to be put on the agenda for an annual general meeting provided that the requesting Shareholder must hold, individually or together with other Shareholders with whom the proposal is made, at least 0.5% of the total share capital or of the votes, and the request must be submitted to the chairperson of the Board at least three months before the anniversary of the previous year's ordinary Shareholders' meeting and shall be in writing, specifying the item and the proposal.

**PROPOSALS OF BUSINESS**

At the Meeting, the following proposals of business will be conducted:

**<u>PROPOSAL 1. APPROVAL OF SWISS FINANCIAL STATEMENTS</u>**

Under Swiss law, the Swiss consolidated financial statements and the Swiss statutory standalone financial statements must be submitted to Shareholders for approval at each annual general meeting. If Shareholders do not approve this proposal, the Board may consider calling an extraordinary general meeting of Shareholders for reconsideration of this proposal by Shareholders.

The Swiss consolidated financial statements of the Company and the Swiss statutory standalone financial statements of the Company are available at <u>www.lithium-argentina.com</u>.

In its audit reports, PricewaterhouseCoopers AG, Zug, Switzerland, recommended without qualification that the Company's Swiss consolidated financial statements and the Swiss statutory standalone financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, be approved. PricewaterhouseCoopers AG, Zug, Switzerland, expresses its opinion that the Swiss consolidated financial statements of the Company present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2025, and its financial performance and its cash flows for the period ended December 31, 2025, in conformity with IFRS Accounting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board. PricewaterhouseCoopers AG, Zug, Switzerland, further expresses its opinion and confirms that the Swiss statutory standalone financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025 comply with Swiss law and the Articles of the Company.

**The Board recommends a vote FOR the approval of the Swiss consolidated financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2025 and the Swiss statutory standalone financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2025, together with the respective reports of the auditor thereon.**

------

**<u>PROPOSAL 2. APPROPRIATION OF THE ACCUMULATED LOSS FOR FISCAL YEAR 2025</u>**

Under Swiss law, the appropriation of available earnings or accumulated loss, as the case may be, as set forth in the Company's Swiss statutory standalone (i.e., non-consolidated) financial statements must be submitted to shareholders for approval at each annual general meeting. Available earnings may be carried forward or be distributed to shareholders as dividends. We do not expect to pay dividends from available earnings in the foreseeable future as they would not be exempt from Swiss withholding tax.

The Company, on a stand-alone basis, does not have any available earnings at this time, and accordingly, the Board proposes that the accumulated loss be carried forward to the next year's account as follows:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| &nbsp;&nbsp;**Proposed Appropriation of Accumulated Loss in**<br>**USD** | &nbsp;&nbsp;**U.S. Dollars**<br>**(Expressed in thousands)** | &nbsp;&nbsp;**Swiss Francs**<br>**(Expressed in thousands)** |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;**Losses Brought Forward** | &nbsp;&nbsp;(449977) | &nbsp;&nbsp;(356967) |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;**Net Losses for the Period** | &nbsp;&nbsp;(19716) | &nbsp;&nbsp;(15641) |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;**Losses to be Carried Forward** | &nbsp;&nbsp;(469693) | &nbsp;&nbsp;(372608) |

---

**The Board recommends a vote FOR the appropriation of the accumulated loss for the fiscal year 2025 by carrying forward such accumulated loss to the next year's account.**

**<u>PROPOSAL 3. DISCHARGE OF THE MEMBERS OF THE BOARD AND OF THE EXECUTIVE MANAGEMENT TEAM FOR THE ACTIVITIES DURING FISCAL YEAR 2025</u>**

In accordance with Article 698, paragraph 2, item 7 of the Swiss Code, it is customary for Swiss companies to request Shareholders at the annual general meeting to discharge the members of the Board and the Executive Management Team (as defined below) from personal liability for their activities during the preceding fiscal year. Accordingly, Shareholders are being requested to grant the members of the Board and of the Executive Management Team discharge from personal liability with respect to activities during fiscal year 2025. Discharge pursuant to the proposed resolution is only effective with respect to facts that have been disclosed to Shareholders (including through any publicly available information, regardless of whether it is included in our filings on EDGAR or SEDAR+) and only binds Shareholders who either voted in favor of the proposal or who subsequently acquired Common Shares with knowledge that the Shareholders have approved this proposal. In addition, Shareholders who vote against this proposal, abstain from voting on this proposal, do not vote on this proposal, or acquire their Common Shares without knowledge of the approval of this proposal, may bring, as a plaintiff, any claims in a shareholder derivative suit within twelve months after the approval of the proposal. After the expiration of the twelve-month period, such Shareholders will generally no longer have the right to bring, as a plaintiff, claims in shareholder derivative suits against members of the Board or Executive Management Team with respect to activities during fiscal year 2025.

**The Board recommends a vote FOR the discharge of the members of the Board and of the Executive Management Team from liability for the activities during fiscal year 2025.**

**<u>PROPOSAL 4. APPROVAL OF AMENDED AND RESTATED EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN</u>**

Shareholders will be asked to consider and, if deemed appropriate, pass the Amended and Restated Incentive Plan Resolution (as defined below), the full text of which is located below.

The Company is proposing to make certain amendments to the Company's current amended and restated equity incentive plan (the "**Incentive Plan**") certain of which require Shareholder approval in accordance with the amendment provisions of the Incentive Plan in addition to the requirements of the Toronto Stock Exchange (the "**TSX**") Company Manual.

------

The proposed amendments principally include changing the Incentive Plan from an 8% rolling plan to a 10% rolling plan, removing certain restrictions on the grant of equity incentive securities to non-employee directors of the Company, as well as certain other changes summarized below (the "**Incentive Plan Amendments**").

The collective amendments to the Incentive Plan since it was last presented to Shareholders on June 20, 2024, are reflected in the blackline of the amended and restated equity incentive plan (the "**Amended and Restated Incentive Plan**"), which is attached as Schedule "C" to this Circular. The Incentive Plan was previously amended and approved by the Board on January 23, 2025. Amendments to the Incentive Plan then consisted primarily of changing references of "Lithium Americas (Argentina) Corp." to "Lithium Argentina AG" in connection with the continuation to Switzerland, revising the definition of "fair market value" and changes necessary to comply with Swiss law in connection with the continuation to Switzerland. The amendments were made without Shareholder approval pursuant to the amendment provisions of the Incentive Plan and the TSX Company Manual. The amendments were accepted by the TSX. The blackline of the Amended and Restated Incentive Plan, which is attached as Schedule "C" to this Circular, reflect these previous changes.

The Board and the GNCLC approved the Amended and Restated Incentive Plan on May 1, 2026. The TSX has approved the Amended and Restated Incentive Plan subject to Shareholder approval. Terms not herein defined shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the Amended and Restated Incentive Plan. Below is a summary of the proposed Incentive Plan Amendments. The first two amendments require Shareholder approval pursuant to the amendment provisions of the Incentive Plan.

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| &nbsp;&nbsp;**Amendment** | &nbsp;&nbsp;**Summary** | &nbsp;&nbsp;**Rationale** |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Increase in the plan maximum | &nbsp;&nbsp;• The aggregate number of Common Shares<br> issuable under the Amended and Restated <br> Incentive Plan will be increased from 8% to <br> 10% of the outstanding issue from time to time. | &nbsp;&nbsp;• Support normal course and additional grants <br> as the Company continues to scale. |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Remove certain annual limitations on grants to non-employee directors and the corresponding restrictions in the amendment provisions of the plan | &nbsp;&nbsp;• The limitation that the aggregate number of <br> Options (as defined below) granted under the<br> Amended and Restated Incentive Plan to any <br> one non-employee directors within any one <br> year period shall not exceed a maximum value <br> of US$100,000, and together with any RSUs <br> and DSUs (each, as defined below) granted<br> under the Incentive Plan, not exceed a <br> maximum value of US$150,000. | &nbsp;&nbsp;• The limitation was previously instituted to <br> comply with certain North American proxy <br> advisor recommendations, for which the <br> Company is no longer subject by virtue of <br> its Swiss domicile. |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Delegation to CEO of RSU and PSU grants to<br>non-executive employees | &nbsp;&nbsp;• The Board may delegate to the CEO the <br> authority to grant a specified number of <br> RSUs and PSUs to eligible employees who <br> are not also officers and directors of the<br> Company. | &nbsp;&nbsp;• Align the Company's practice with respect to the<br> grant of RSUs and PSUs with the existing ability <br> to delegate to the CEO the grant of a specified<br> number of Options. |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Functional currency | &nbsp;&nbsp;• The functional currency of the Amended and <br> Restated Incentive Plan is now United States <br> dollars. | &nbsp;&nbsp;• Align with the Company's functional currency. |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Definitions and housekeeping changes | &nbsp;&nbsp;• In addition to the changes described above, the<br> Incentive Plan Amendments include the <br> following changes: (i) amending the defined <br> term "Designated Affiliate" to include an <br> entity in which the Company has a joint <br> venture interest such that the Company can<br> grant equity incentive securities under the <br> Incentive Plan to eligible employees at such<br> "Designated Affiliates"; (ii) removing <br> "Designated Affiliate" from the definition of<br> "Change of Control" and replacing it with<br> "subsidiaries of the Company"; and (iii) such <br> other changes of a housekeeping nature, all as<br> reflected in the blacklined copy of the Amended <br> and Restated Incentive Plan attached as Schedule<br> "C" to this Circular. | &nbsp;&nbsp;• Align with the Company's current operations<br> and corporate structure. |

---

------

Subject to the conditional capital of the Company for equity incentive plans under the Articles, the aggregate number of Common Shares that may be subject to issuance under the current Incentive Plan, together with any other securities-based compensation arrangements of the Company, is limited to 8% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares from time to time (which based on the current number of Common Shares outstanding represents 13,106,717 Common Shares). If the Incentive Plan Amendments are approved, and subject to the conditional capital of the Company for equity incentive plans under the Articles, the aggregate number of Common Shares that may be subject to issuance under the Amended and Restated Incentive Plan, together with any other securities-based compensation arrangements of the Company, will be limited to 10% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares (which based on the current number of Common Shares outstanding represents 16,383,396 Common Shares). As of the date of this Circular, there are 7,759,523 RSUs, 58,367 PSUs, 1,080,647 DSUs and 2,625,000 Options (each, as defined below) outstanding, (entitling the holders thereof to acquire a maximum of 11,523,537 Common Shares, after giving effect to the maximum performance multipliers applicable to PSUs, representing approximately 7.03% of the Common Shares based on the current number of Common Shares outstanding). Accordingly, 4,859,859 Common Shares will be available for the grant of additional future awards under the Amended and Restarted Incentive Plan once adopted based on the current number of Common Shares issued and outstanding with additional Common Shares being available for grants upon the Company issuing additional Common Shares from time to time. For a description of the annual burn rate of the Incentive Plan, please refer to "*Annual Burn Rat*e" starting at page 64.

At the Meeting, Shareholders will be asked to consider, and if deemed appropriate, pass an ordinary resolution by simple majority vote, the text of which is set out below, approving the Incentive Plan Amendments and the Amended and Restated Incentive Plan (the "**Amended and Restated Incentive Plan Resolution**"). If at the Meeting, Shareholders do not approve the Amended and Restated Incentive Plan Resolution, the current Incentive Plan, with certain amendments to the Incentive Plan that do not require Shareholder approval under the TSX Company Manual, will remain as the Company's equity incentive plan.

**BE IT RESOLVED THAT:**

1. the amended and restated equity incentive plan of Lithium Argentina AG (the "**Company**") as last amended by the board of directors of the Company (the "**Board**") dated May 1, 2026 (the "**Amended and Restated Incentive Plan**"), including, without limitation, the "Incentive Plan Amendments", substantially as described in the management information circular of the Company dated May 4, 2026 with respect to the Company's annual general meeting of shareholders held on June 19, 2026 (the "**Meeting**") be and are hereby authorized, approved, ratified and confirmed;

2. the Board be and is hereby authorized to reserve a sufficient number of common shares in the capital of the Company to satisfy the requirements under the Amended and Restated Incentive Plan;

3. the Board be and is hereby authorized to make any further amendments to the Amended and Restated Incentive Plan as may be required, without further approval of the shareholders, in order to ensure the adoption of the Amended and Restated Plan;

4. any one more of the directors or officers of the Company be and is hereby authorized and directed to perform all such acts, deeds and things, execute or deliver all such documents and other writings, including treasury orders, as may be required to give effect to the intent of the foregoing resolutions; and

------

5. notwithstanding that resolution has been duly passed by shareholders of the Company at the Meeting, the directors of the Company be and are hereby authorized and empowered, if they decide not proceed with the aforementioned resolution, to revoke this resolution at any time prior to giving effect thereto, without further notice to, or approval of, the shareholders of the Company.

**The Board recommends a vote FOR the approval of the Amended and Restated Incentive Plan Resolution.**

**The Board recommends a vote FOR the re-election of each of the nominated directors as members of the GNCLC, each for a term extending until completion of the next annual general meeting.**

**<u>PROPOSAL 8. APPOINT THE AUDITOR</u>**

Shareholders will be asked to vote on the appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, Chartered Professional Accountant, to serve as auditor of the Company for Canadian and U.S. securities law purposes for the financial year 2026. PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, Chartered Professional Accountant, has served as the Company's auditor since August 2015. See the disclosure under the section titled "*Committees of the Board*" starting on page 36 for details about fees paid to the auditor.

**The Board recommends a vote FOR the appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, Chartered Professional Accountant as the Company's auditor.**

**<u>PROPOSAL 9. ELECT THE SWISS STATUTORY AUDITOR</u>**

Shareholders will be asked to vote on the election of PricewaterhouseCoopers AG, Zug, Switzerland, to serve as the Company's Swiss statutory auditor firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026. PricewaterhouseCoopers AG, Zug, Switzerland, has served as the Company's Swiss statutory auditor since the Company's continuation to Switzerland on January 23, 2025.

Pursuant to Swiss law, Shareholders must elect an auditor supervised by the Swiss Federal Oversight Authority as the Company's statutory auditor. The statutory auditor's main task is to audit the standalone statutory financial statements and consolidated financial statements of Lithium Argentina in accordance with Swiss law and the Articles. The Board has recommended that PricewaterhouseCoopers AG, Zug, Switzerland, be elected as Lithium Argentina's Swiss statutory auditor for the Company's Swiss consolidated financial statements and Swiss standalone statutory financial statements.

Representatives of PricewaterhouseCoopers AG, Zug, Switzerland, will participate in the Meeting, will have the opportunity to make a statement and will be available to respond to questions Shareholders may ask.

**The Board recommends a vote FOR the election of PricewaterhouseCoopers AG, Zug, Switzerland, as the Company's Swiss statutory auditor.**

**<u>PROPOSAL 10. APPROACH TO EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION</u>**

In line with its past practices, the Company will hold an advisory vote of Shareholders on its approach to executive compensation, as it believes it is important to ascertain Shareholder feedback on its practices in this area. The Company will disclose the results of the vote as part of its report on the voting results for the Meeting. The advisory vote is non-binding on the Company and it remains the duty of the Board to develop and implement appropriate executive compensation policies. However, the Board will take the results into account when considering the executive compensation plans and policies of the Company for future periods.

For details regarding the Company's executive compensation program and decisions made by the Board concerning executive pay for 2025, see the disclosure under the section titled "*Executive Compensation*" starting on page 44.

------

**The Board recommends a vote FOR the non-binding advisory resolution on the Company's approach to executive compensation.**

**<u>PROPOSAL 11. APPROVAL OF THE MAXIMUM AGGREGATE COMPENSATION OF THE BOARD FOR THE PERIOD BETWEEN THE 2026 MEETING AND THE 2027 MEETING</u>**

As required by the Articles, Shareholders are provided, in accordance with Swiss law, the opportunity to vote at each annual general meeting on the maximum aggregate amount of compensation that can be paid or granted to the members of the Board for the period between the annual general meeting at which approval is sought and the next annual general meeting. The Shareholder vote is binding. As a result, Shareholders are being asked to ratify an amount of US$2.0 million as the maximum aggregate amount of compensation of the Board for the period between the 2026 Meeting and the 2027 annual general meeting (the "**2026/2027 Term**"). The proposal is based on the Board consisting of eight directors, of whom seven are non-employee directors. Only the non-employee directors are included in this proposal. Lithium Argentina's Chief Executive Officer is also a member of the Board but does not receive any compensation for his role as a director.

The proposed maximum aggregate amount includes all forms of cash, stock and other compensation of the Board and represents the maximum possible amount that Lithium Argentina could pay or grant to the Board for the 2026/2027 Term and not necessarily the actual amount that will be paid. A detailed description of the Company's compensation program for members of its Board currently in effect for its Board can be found under the section titled "*Director Compensation*" in this Circular. Actual compensation paid to the members of the Board in 2026 will be disclosed in the management information circular for the Company's 2027 annual general meeting and in the Swiss Statutory Compensation Report for fiscal year 2026. The general principles of the compensation for the Board are described in Article 31 of the Articles. The Company uses a combination of cash and equity compensation to attract and retain qualified candidates to serve on the Board.

If Shareholders do not ratify the maximum aggregate compensation amount, our Articles provide that the Board may either submit a new proposal for approval of the maximum aggregate amount at the same Meeting, at next year's annual general meeting or at an extraordinary general meeting of the Shareholders. The Company may continue to pay compensation to the Board subject to the subsequent approval. The Board may also split proposals for approval by submitting proposals with respect to particular elements of compensation, shorter periods of time, or a more limited group of persons. However, rejection of this proposal could lead to material uncertainty with respect to the Company's compensation arrangements and could detrimentally impact the Company's ability to attract and retain directors.

**The Board recommends a vote FOR the approval of the proposed maximum aggregate compensation of the Board for the period between the 2026 Meeting and the 2027 annual general meeting.**

**<u>PROPOSAL 12. APPROVAL OF THE MAXIMUM AGGREGATE COMPENSATION OF THE EXECUTIVE MANAGEMENT TEAM FOR THE FINANCIAL YEAR 2027</u>**

As required by the Articles, Shareholders are provided, in accordance with Swiss law, the opportunity to vote at each annual general meeting on the maximum aggregate compensation that can be paid or granted to the members of the Company's Executive Management Team for the fiscal year commencing after the date of the annual general meeting. As a result, Shareholders are being asked to ratify an amount of US$8.0 million as the maximum aggregate amount of compensation of the Executive Management Team for fiscal year 2027. The Shareholder vote is binding.

The executive management team currently consists of: the Chief Executive Officer, Sam Pigott; the President, Alec Meikle; and the Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, Alex Shulga (collectively, the "**Executive Management Team**").

------

The proposed maximum aggregate amount includes all forms of cash, stock and other compensation and is based on the expected fiscal year 2027 compensation of the Executive Management Team. This amount represents the maximum possible amount that Lithium Argentina could pay or grant to the Executive Management Team in the 2027 fiscal year, subject to the authority of the Board to grant or pay a "supplementary amount" pursuant to Article 35 of the Articles without additional Shareholder ratification to persons who newly assume an Executive Management Team position after the prospective vote at the 2026 Meeting, and not necessarily the actual amount that will be paid. Consistent with the Company's historical practice in setting executive compensation, as reflected in the section titled "*Executive Compensation*" in this Circular, the Company does not anticipate that the aggregate amount actually paid to the Executive Management Team members for fiscal year 2027 will be at the proposed maximum aggregate amount. Actual compensation paid to the Executive Management Team in 2027 will be disclosed in the management information circular for the Company's 2027 annual general meeting and the Swiss Compensation Report for fiscal year 2026.

For a detailed description of the compensation principles currently in effect for the Executive Management Team (and other NEOs who are not members of the Executive Management Team), please refer to the section titled "*Executive Compensation*" in this Circular. The Company recommends that Shareholders read the Articles, in particular Article 32 regarding the general principles of compensation, and the section titled "*Executive Compensation*" of this Circular to understand Executive Management Team compensation principles and process when considering this proposal. The actual amounts paid to each member of the Executive Management Team for fiscal years 2025 are disclosed in the section titled "*Summary Compensation Table*" of this Circular.

If Shareholders do not ratify the maximum aggregate compensation amount, our Articles provide that the Board may either submit a new proposal for approval of the maximum aggregate amount at the same Meeting, at next year's annual general meeting or at an extraordinary general meeting of the Shareholders, and the Company may pay compensation to Executive Management Team subject to the subsequent approval. The Board may also split proposals for approval by submitting proposals with respect to particular elements of compensation, shorter periods of time, or a more limited group of persons. However, rejection of this proposal could lead to material uncertainty with respect to the Company's executive compensation arrangements and could detrimentally impact the Company's ability to attract and retain members of Executive Management Team.

**The Board recommends a vote FOR the approval of the proposed maximum aggregate compensation of the Executive Management Team for the 2027 fiscal year.**

**<u>PROPOSAL 13. APPROVE THE SWISS STATUTORY COMPENSATION REPORT</u>**

Under our Articles and the Swiss Code, we are required to prepare a separate Swiss Statutory Compensation Report each year that contains specific items in a presentation format determined by Swiss law. Our Swiss Statutory Compensation Report must be submitted to Shareholders for approval in an advisory retrospective vote at each annual general meeting. The purpose of the advisory vote is to give Shareholders an opportunity to provide input on the use of the Swiss aggregate maximum compensation amounts for the Board and the Executive Management Team that is approved by Shareholders. While Shareholders prospectively approve aggregate compensation for a subsequent period in Proposals 11 and 12, the Swiss Statutory Compensation Report describes the actual use of the amount in the prior fiscal year.

The Swiss Statutory Compensation Report sets forth, for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, the compensation of the members of the Board and the members of the Executive Management Team. An audit report from PricewaterhouseCoopers AG, Zug, Switzerland, our Swiss statutory auditor, confirming that the Swiss Statutory Compensation Report complies with Swiss law, is included in the Swiss Statutory Compensation Report.

------

While we historically have had an advisory say-on-pay on the compensation paid to our named executive officers, that vote is required by SEC rules. The vote in this Proposal is required pursuant to Swiss law. Consequently, both votes are required to be included on the agenda at the annual general meeting.

A copy of the 2025 Swiss Statutory Compensation Report is contained in Schedule "B" of this Circular.

**The Board recommends a vote FOR the non-binding advisory resolution on the approval of the Swiss Statutory Compensation Report.**

**<u>PROPOSAL 14. ELECT THE SWISS STATUTORY INDEPENDENT VOTING REPRESENTATIVE</u>**

Swiss law requires that the shareholders of a Swiss company listed on a stock exchange elect an independent voting representative ("**Independent Voting Representative**") annually, for a term extending until completion of the next annual general meeting.

The main duty of the Independent Voting Representative is to exercise the voting rights in accordance with the instructions received from shareholders. The Independent Voting Representative will not make statements, submit motions or proposals or ask questions to the Board on behalf of Shareholders. The Board has recommended that Anwaltskanzlei Keller AG of Splügenstrasse 8, 8002, Zürich, Switzerland be elected as the Independent Voting Representative for a term extending until completion of the annual general meeting in 2027. Anwaltskanzlei Keller AG does not perform any other services for the Company.

**The Board recommends a vote FOR the election of Anwaltskanzlei Keller AG as the Independent Voting Representative of the Company for a term extending until completion of the annual general meeting in 2027.**

**INTEREST OF CERTAIN PERSONS IN MATTERS TO BE ACTED UPON**

No person who has been a director or executive officer of the Company at any time since the beginning of the Company's last completed financial year, nor any proposed nominee for director of the Company, nor any associate or affiliate of the foregoing persons has any material interest, direct or indirect, by way of beneficial ownership of securities or otherwise, in any matter to be acted upon at the Meeting other than: approval of the discharge of the members of the Board and of the Executive Management Team; the approval of the Amended and Restated Incentive Plan; the election of directors; the election of the Chair; the election of the members of the GNCLC; the advisory resolution on executive compensation; the maximum aggregate compensation of the Board; the maximum aggregate compensation of the Executive Management Team; and the advisory resolution on the Swiss Statutory Compensation Report.

**INTEREST OF INFORMED PERSONS IN MATERIAL TRANSACTIONS**

Except as set out in this Circular, or in the Company's Annual Report on Form 20-F, annual financial statements and MD&A for its most recently completed financial year filed pursuant to applicable Canadian and U.S. securities laws and which are available under our profile on SEDAR+ at <u>www.sedarplus.ca</u> or EDGAR at the website of the SEC at <u>www.sec.gov/edgar</u>, no person who has been a director or executive officer of the Company, nor any proposed nominee for director of the Company, nor any person or company who beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, or who exercises control or direction over (or a combination of both) more than 10% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares, nor any associate or affiliate of those persons, has any material interest, direct or indirect, by way of beneficial ownership of securities or otherwise, in any transaction since the beginning of the Company's last completed financial year which has materially affected or would materially affect the Company or its subsidiaries.

**DIRECTORS DISCLOSURE**

**<u>ADVANCE NOTICE FOR NOMINATIONS</u>**

Under the Swiss Code and the Articles, nominations by Shareholders of persons for election to the Board may be made at any time prior to or at the general meeting of Shareholders provided that such election is included in the agenda. If the nomination is submitted prior to the general meeting and is to be included on the agenda of the general meeting, the requesting Shareholder must hold, individually or together with other Shareholders with whom the proposal is made, at least 0.5% of the total share capital or of the votes, and the request must be submitted to the chairperson of the Board at least three months before the anniversary of the previous year's ordinary Shareholders' meeting and shall be in writing, specifying the item and the proposal.

**<u>MAJORITY VOTING</u>**

The Swiss Code and the Articles provide that elections of the members of the Board, including the Chair of the Board, require a majority of all of the votes represented. Voting "ABSTAIN" will count as an "AGAINST" vote. Any nominee who does not receive a majority of votes for his or her election will not be elected to the Board. Prior to its continuation to Switzerland, the Company had a majority voting policy. Although the Company no longer has a majority voting policy, it will continue to respect the majority voting requirements of the TSX.

**<u>NOMINEES</u>**

At the Meeting, Shareholders will be asked to elect these eight nominees as directors of the Company. Each director nominee elected will hold office until completion of the next annual meeting of Shareholders.

The following tables set out information regarding nominees for election as directors, including, but not limited to, the names, province or state and country of residence, the offices they hold within the Company, their principal occupations, business or employment within the five preceding years, the period or periods during which each director has served as a director, areas of expertise, attendance of meetings during the 2025 fiscal year, voting results from the Company's 2025 annual general meeting, and the number of Common Shares and incentive securities of the Company that each beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, or over which control or direction is exercised, as of the date of this Circular:

The Company's governance practices are based on a number of sources, including:

* The Swiss Code;

* Swiss Code of Best Practices for Corporate Governance;

* *National Instrument 58-101 - Disclosure of Corporate Governance Practices (the "**Corporate Governance Disclosure Rules**");*

------

* National Policy 58-201 - *Corporate Governance Guidelines*, which sets out best practices for sound governance;

* National Instrument 52-110 - *Audit Committees*;

* The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 as amended from time to time;

* The TSX Company Manual; and

* NYSE corporate governance standards that apply to foreign private issuers.

The Company's governance practices meet the requirements of Switzerland, Canada and the U.S. that apply to it, as well as meeting the requirements for companies listed on the TSX, and for a foreign private issuer listed on the NYSE. A statement as to how the Company's governance practices differ from NYSE standards applicable to domestic issuers is available on its website (<u>www.lithium-argentina.com</u>).

The Company keeps informed about changes to governance best practices, and incorporates them to keep its practices current, based on its stage of development and internal business requirements.

The Company's overall corporate governance practices, including certain policies and protocols related thereto, are summarized below.

**<u>ABOUT THE BOARD</u>**

**Role and Mandate**

The Board has overall responsibility for corporate governance matters by virtue of its responsibility for:

* developing and approving corporate policies and guidelines;

* assisting in the definition of corporate objectives and assessing corporate strategies and key plans;

* overseeing material risks of the Company and its business;

* overseeing the integrity of the Company's internal financial controls and management information systems;

* evaluating the Company's performance and the performance of the Board, its committees and individual directors; and

* appointing the members of the Executive Management Team and, together with the relevant committee, reviewing their performance.

The Board has adopted a Corporate Governance Framework where the Board has outlined its responsibilities in a board mandate. The board mandate describing the structural parameters of the Board is reproduced in the attached as Schedule "A" to the Circular and is also available in the Company's Corporate Governance Framework on the Company's website (<u>www.lithium-argentina.com</u>).

**Independence**

The Board currently has eight members of whom five qualify as independent directors, being a majority, under the Corporate Governance Disclosure Rules. This includes the Independent Lead Director, George Ireland. Except for the SDC, the committees are all comprised entirely of independent directors, including the chairs of each committee. The independent directors are: George Ireland, Diego Lopez Casanello, Robert Doyle, Calum Morrison and Monica Moretto.

------

The non-independent directors of the Company are Sam Pigott, who is CEO of the Company; John Kanellitsas, who is the Chair (and formerly Executive Chair); and Franco Mignacco, who is the chair of the Shareholder Committee of Minera Exar, which is a significant equity investee of the Company.

Generally independence of a director means that the individual is not an employee or member of management of the Company or any subsidiary, receives no compensation from the Company or a subsidiary except compensation for serving as a director on the Board, and generally the individual has no conflicts of interest or other ties to management, the Company or a subsidiary that would lead to a determination that the individual is unable to exercise judgement independent of management. These same considerations extend to immediate family members of the individual.

Directors on the Board with an interest in a material transaction or agreement are required to declare their interest and abstain from voting on the transaction or agreement at issue. The Board also forms special committees as needed, comprised of only independent directors, to evaluate proposed related party transactions and ensure that independent judgement is used to evaluate the transaction, free of any potential or actual conflict of interest, or for other purposes as needed and determined by the Board in its sole discretion.

Our Common Shares are dual-listed in Canada and the U.S. NYSE requirements and U.S. securities laws set out different requirements for determining director independence than TSX requirements and securities laws in Canada. As a "foreign private issuer" under U.S. securities laws, the Company is permitted to follow Swiss requirements instead of certain NYSE corporate governance standards, including director independence but this does not apply to audit committee independence requirements under U.S. securities laws. The three members of the ARC satisfy the independence requirements of Rule 10A-3 under the U.S. Exchange Act.

**Roles of the Chair and the Independent Lead Director**

The Chair leads the Board in all aspects of its work and is responsible for effectively managing the affairs of the Board to ensure that it is properly organized and functions efficiently. The Company has developed a written description for the role of the Chair. The responsibilities of this role include:

* Provide leadership to enable the Board to act in carrying out its duties and responsibilities as described in the Board charter and as otherwise may be appropriate;

* Work with the CEO and other officers to monitor progress on the business plan, annual budgets, policy implementation and succession planning;

* Provide advice, counsel and mentorship to the CEO and fellow members of the Board;

* In consultation with the CEO, ensure that there is an effective relationship between management personnel and the members of the Board;

* Chair Board meetings and liaise with the Corporate Secretary in respect of meeting logistics, and to ensure all required business and items requiring approval are brought before the Board;

* Ensure the Board has the opportunity, at each regularly scheduled meeting, to meet separately without non-independent directors and executive management present;

* Ensure the proper flow of information to the Board and review, with the CEO and Corporate Secretary, the adequacy and timing of materials in support of executive management proposals;

* Review and assess the directors' meeting attendance records and the effectiveness and performance of the Board, its committees, their chairs and individual directors;

------

* Chair the annual, and any special meeting, of the Shareholders;

* Exercise the authority of the CEO in the unlikely event that the CEO is absent and is unable to act and action on the part of the CEO when required to protect the interests of the Company; and

* Carry out special assignments or functions as requested by the Board.

The Board has also appointed an Independent Lead Director to assist the Chair and provide leadership so that the Board can function independently. The Independent Lead Director is responsible for coordinating the activities of the other independent directors and perform such other duties and responsibilities as the Board may determine.

**Strategic Planning**

The Board and management generally conduct an annual strategic planning session to discuss updates to the Company's corporate strategy. The strategic planning session typically occurs prior to the budget approval process to facilitate the Board's review of proposed budgets, taking into consideration the overall corporate strategy, direction and risks of the Company. Financial forecasts for the Company are also presented to the Board.

The Board exercises its oversight of management's performance on execution of the Company's strategy by receiving:

* Presentations from management at least quarterly on items including the status of the Company's mining projects and development operations including construction and development activities, budget performance to date, safety and health, community relations, the environment and sustainability, litigation involving the Company's material mining projects, investor relations matters, and human resources; and

* Informal updates from management on material developments or items of interest to directors.

**<u>ESG APPROACH</u>**

The Company understands that all human activity has an impact on the planet and local communities and also understands that there is a critical role that it can play in the transition to a more sustainable future, not just by enhancing the way it works, but by carefully examining the legacy of its products and its processes and procedures. Lithium Argentina commits to respecting the environment where it operates by:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A) Strict compliance with national and regional environmental regulations, as well as international industry standards to ensure its policies meet international best practices.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;B) Rigorous assessment and monitoring of the impact of its operations and Company performance as it seeks to minimize and improve its environmental impact, and develop tools to mitigate or, where possible, prevent environmental risk.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;C) Innovative and cross-cutting 'Research & Development' investment to ensure the Company respects the environment in which it operates.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;D) Periodic and inclusive opportunities to engage stakeholders on environmental issues to better understand how the Company can further manage and mitigate impact.

The Company periodically reviews the objectives and priorities to reflect both the progress made and the Company's growth and project maturity. The Company takes its responsibilities seriously to respect the environment, to conduct business based on high ethical standards and to make positive and sustainable contributions in the communities in which it operates.

------

In May 2026, the Company published a 2025 Sustainability Report, reaffirming the Company's commitment to responsible development and production, as well as highlighting the Company's ESG practices and overall progress made related to ESG over the reporting period of January 1, 2025 to December 31, 2025. The Company's major ESG achievements during the reporting period include:

* Since 2024, Cauchari-Olaroz has operated an Integrated Management System aligned with ISO 9001 (quality), ISO 45001 (occupational health and safety), and ISO 14001 (environmental management), achieving Triple ISO certification in June 2024, with 2025 audits confirming no non-conformities and demonstrating strong governance and consistent alignment with health, safety, environmental, and continuous improvement objectives.

* Environmental achievements at Cauchari-Olaroz:

o 26% carbon emission intensity reduction in 2025 compared to 2024, with 97% of total energy consumption from renewable sources.

o 26% reduction in water footprint per tonne of lithium produced in 2025 when compared to 2024.

o 45% of total water use was recirculated during 2025.

o 62% of all waste generated was recycled or reused.

* Cauchari-Olaroz completed its first RMAP audit in June 2025, identified several non-conformities that were addressed through corrective action plans, and certification is expected in the first half of 2026.

* Strengthened whistleblowing system at Cauchari-Olaroz, updated in 2025 with tech improvements and a new Investigation Protocol.

**Environmental**

In 2025, the Company calculates the operational Scope 1 (direct) and Scope 2 (indirect) greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions intensity at Cauchari-Olaroz.

The Company has also developed and adopted policies to address and formalize its commitment and expected performance in emerging social and humanitarian issues of concern to its employees and its stakeholders.

The Company's priority is to sustainably manage water resources by limiting its use and safeguarding its quality. The Company engages with its neighboring communities to collaboratively manage shared water resources throughout the project life cycle. From the outset, the Company has incorporated water stewardship considerations into project decisions and design - a reflection of the driving focus on using water efficiently and limiting water quality impacts.

The Company is evaluating hydrological monitoring and modeling programs that would serve to mitigate any potential changes to salars' hydrology and geochemistry.

**Social**

The Company strives to build collaborative and mutually beneficial relationships with the local and Indigenous communities associated with our activities. It proactively engages with these communities to better understand and address their interests and concerns, and to advance our shared priorities. In 2025, in addition to supporting communities with training initiatives and infrastructure development, Cauchari- Olaroz made a total investment in communities, including donations, community programs and easement agreements of approximately US$1.7 million including contributions of materials and supplies to the communities in the direct influence area.

------

**ESG Governance**

The Company integrates ESG considerations into its business strategy, as well as in the way we plan and manage activities. The Company is guided in its oversight of ESG and sustainability matters by three Board committees. Direct responsibility for sustainability matters rests with the CEO, with execution oversight by the Vice President, Investor Relations and ESG, who works in close collaboration with executive management, site teams and corporate departments, to establish goals and targets, and to measure the progress against key performance indicators.

**Lithium Argentina's Governance and Organizational Structure**

![](exhibit99-3x36x1.jpg)

New policy initiatives and updates to existing policies are reviewed by the appropriate Board committees before they're recommended to the Board for approval. The management team, including the CEO, the CFO, the Vice President Legal & Corporate Secretary and the Vice President, Investor Relations and ESG, generally oversee initiatives for new policy development or updates to develop new policies or update existing policies.

**ESG Risk Management**

The Company's risk reduction strategy for ESG-related risks is focused on complying with applicable local laws, rules, regulations and requirements and integrating material ESG-related risks into its risk management system for purposes of oversight at the corporate and operations levels. See the section titled "*Risk Management*" for further details of the Company's risk management system.

**<u>Board and Management Composition</u>**

**Board Composition**

The GNCLC has the most direct impact on the composition of the Board, as a result of its responsibilities for overseeing Board composition and function, and with regard to the recruitment and nomination of new candidates for the Board. The Company has not set formal targets for any categories on the Board or in senior management as of the date of this Circular. Although the Company does not have a formal written policy nor any formal target, the GNCLC does consider the level of representation of women on the Board in identifying and nominating director candidates, while ensuring that the most qualified individuals are nominated.

The Company supports gender diversity initiatives for public company boards, and currently one of eight Board members is female and five different nationalities are represented on the Board.

The Company's philosophy is to recruit the highest caliber individuals to act as directors, while also encouraging diversity on the Board and in executive officer and senior management positions to the extent possible. This has allowed the Company to achieve its goal of creating a Board that, as a whole, consists of individuals with varied and relevant career experience, knowledge of the mining industry and financial or other specialized expertise to support and oversee the Company's progress from development stage to production. The GNCLC will continue to monitor developments in this area while reviewing the Company's practices, in light of its business plans, and recommend changes as needed.

**Management Composition**

The CEO, together with the GNCLC, manage the succession planning process and make recommendations to the Board for the appointment of the Company's senior management team. As such, the GNCLC and the CEO are in unique positions to directly affect the Company's diversity when nominating, recruiting, hiring and promoting persons to senior management roles.

The Company and the GNCLC consider the level of representation of women in executive officer and senior management positions when making internal appointments and in the Company's hiring practices. This involves periodically reviewing the composition and composition of the senior management team to ensure that women with the appropriate skills, knowledge, experience and character are being fairly considered as opportunities become available, and in the Company's hiring process, ensuring that candidates of different genders are considered for interviews.

While the Company believes that considering the broadest group of individuals who have the skills, knowledge, experience and character required to provide the leadership needed to achieve the business objectives of the Company is in its best interest and in the interests of stakeholders, it does not currently have any formal targets for women or any other group on its senior management team. The GNCLC and the Board encourage the consideration of women who have the necessary skills, knowledge, experience and character for promotion or hiring into an executive officer position within the Company; however, the GNCLC and Board wish to ensure the best candidate for the role is selected, which could be compromised by imposing specified targets.

**Board and Management Gender Composition**

As of the date of this Circular, one of eight Board members is female. The Company currently has no female executive officers, as such term is defined under Canadian disclosure requirements, however, it has one female officer, representing 11.1% of the Company's management team.

**<u>SUCCESSION PLANNING</u>**

Succession planning oversight is provided by the GNCLC for the position of CEO. The GNCLC also plays an advisory role with respect to succession planning for other senior management of the Company. The CEO and Executive Management Team are responsible for developing a succession plan for the Company in cooperation with the GNCLC. The succession plan is intended to facilitate long-term development and retention of key people within the organization, and provide a plan for CEO replacement should a need arise in the future on an expected or unexpected basis.

Following the Company's reorganization in 2023, the Company and the GNCLC conducted a rigorous recruitment process to secure a new CEO, resulting in the successful recruitment of Sam Pigott. The Company developed a succession plan for the Company's executives and senior management, including the identification of critical roles, planned successors and high potential individuals within the organization. A plan to develop a successor for the role of CEO in the event a need arises is also in place. The Company has also developed and moved forward with a plan to establish a corporate team in Argentina to oversee its operations in the country.

**<u>RISK MANAGEMENT</u>**

Risk management at the Company is overseen by the ARC, recognizing the importance of effectively managing risk by tracking risks identified throughout the organization, identifying material risks, and addressing those risks proactively as the Company advances its projects through various stages of development, construction, commissioning and production. The risk management program is led by the CFO. The Company also maintains an insurance program as one aspect of risk management.

Key risks that the Company regularly tracks include the following:

***Operational Risks***

The Board receives regular updates from management in the form of quarterly update presentations on the status of operations, material risks facing the operations and efforts to address or mitigate such risks, along with informal updates on key issues from time to time. Additional meetings may be called to address significant issues of concern as needed. The Company's operational risks relate mainly to its ability to explore, complete development of and operate its lithium projects, and for planned acquisitions, successfully complete the acquisition and integration of the projects and businesses into its operations.

***Health, Safety and Sustainability Risk Management***

In 2025, Lithium Argentina continued to strengthen its strong culture of health and safety throughout the organization as its projects progressed to the next stage. The 44.8% owned Cauchari-Olaroz lithium project began operating in June 2023 and entered commercial production in October 2024. During 2023, Lithium Argentina provided simulation training throughout its organization on emergency response using the crisis response system that to provide preparedness training to employees on how to respond to a number of different potential crisis scenarios, at the corporate and operational levels.

2025 health and safety achievements and incident rates were as follows:

* Strong improvement in safety performance: total recordable injuries dropped from 11 in 2024 to 8 in 2025, with one lost time injuries recorded.

* Total recordable injury frequency rate ("**TRIFR**") and lost time injury frequency rates ("**LTIFR**") were both below targets: 2025 TRIFR was 0.71, compared to 0.74 in 2024, while LTIFR was 0.08, compared to 0.07 in 2024.

***Audit and Financial Risk Management***

The Company emphasizes financial risk management as part of its budget approval process. The capital and operating budget is approved by the Board annually, along with material increases to the respective budget. In addition, management provides quarterly updates to the Board as to actual performance versus budget. This facilitates the Company's financial risk oversight and mitigation efforts. Management monitors and evaluates the Company's risk management activity on an ongoing basis, including its exposure to banking and counterparty risks.

***Cybersecurity Risk Management***

The Company maintains an information systems and infrastructure program. The Company has developed an information technology strategy. Risks to its systems and infrastructure are managed as part of its risk management system. This includes efforts to mitigate cybersecurity risks. To date, no material cybersecurity breach has affected the Company's systems. Another mitigation measure that forms a key part of the Company's information systems and infrastructure program is a company-wide cybersecurity awareness and training campaign for its workforce. The campaign includes education through training sessions and short online courses, test phishing campaigns and discussion of results to further raise awareness of risks and incident response.

**<u>POSITION DESCRIPTIONS FOR THE CEO AND CFO</u>**

The Board has developed written position descriptions for the roles of CEO and CFO. These descriptions are available in the Company's Corporate Governance Framework on its website (<u>www.lithium- argentina.com</u>).

**<u>SHAREHOLDER ENGAGEMENT</u>**

The Company is committed to transparent, timely and effective communication and encourages regular dialogue with Shareholders. A comprehensive investor relations program is in place for the Company that includes regular meetings with current and prospective investment analysts and institutional investors during investor and industry conferences, analyst-hosted fireside chats, analyst-hosted non-deal roadshows and one-on-one meetings. Site tours for investment analysts are also provided periodically. Management meets with current and prospective analysts and investors by video conferencing and in- person. Topics of discussion include an overview of the Company's business and projects, upcoming milestones and catalysts, project-development performance, ESG practices, a macro view on the lithium industry, industry and company outlook and a Q&A session. The Company's commitment to open and transparent communication includes corresponding with retail shareholders by email in response to general inquiries sent to <u>ir@lithium-argentina.com</u>.

Material disclosure, including quarterly and annual financial disclosure, news releases and corporate presentations are reviewed by the Company's disclosure committee, which is comprised of the CEO, President, CFO, Executive Vice President, Legal, Government and External Affairs and Vice President, Investor Relations and ESG. Financial disclosure is approved by the ARC, along with the Board. Shareholders and other interested parties can sign-up to receive email alerts of the Company's news releases on its website at <u>www.lithium-argentina.com</u>.

**<u>IN-CAMERA MEETINGS</u>**

The Board and all committees have the opportunity to meet *in-camera* at the end of each meeting, during which directors in attendance are encouraged to raise any concerns or issues they may have. There is no fixed duration for in-camera sessions.

**<u>CODE OF BUSINESS CONDUCT AND ETHICS</u>**

The Company has adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics (the "**Code**"). The Code applies to all Company personnel including executive management, employees, interns, consultants and the Board regardless of their position at the Company, at all times and everywhere the Company does business. The Company expects Company personnel to:

* comply with applicable laws, rules and regulations;

* act honestly and ethically;

* use their best judgement;

* understand the legal requirements and other standards applicable to their work, and seek advice from management, internal counsel or externally if they are uncertain on how to proceed;

------

* act with integrity and treat people with respect;

* not engage in bullying, harassment, or discrimination of any kind;

* avoid conflicts of interest and not use Company opportunities for personal gain;

* keep information confidential;

* comply with environmental, social, health and safety requirements;

* protect Company assets and use them efficiently; and

* report unethical or illegal behavior, and concerns about Company business or financial disclosure.

Individuals who fail to comply with the Code and applicable laws will be subject to disciplinary measures, up to and including discharge from the Company.

The ARC is responsible for monitoring compliance with the Code. Company personnel are requested to provide annual confirmations that they've read the Code and agree to comply with the Code. As of the date of this Circular, the Company has not been required to file a material change report relating to a departure from the Code.

The Code is periodically updated to keep it current with evolving governance and ethics practices. Updates are prepared by management and the Audit and Risk Committee, and submitted to the Board for feedback and approval. The Board is responsible for granting any waivers from the Code. The Company will disclose any waivers from the requirements of the Code granted to directors or executive officers.

In addition to the Code, the Company has a formal Whistleblower Policy, a Disclosure Policy and a Securities Trading Policy. The Code, Whistleblower Policy, Disclosure Policy and Securities Trading Policy (collectively, the "**Key Policies**") provide a framework for ethical business practices and the ethical conduct of directors, officers, employees and consultants. The Key Policies also promote integrity, accountability and transparency throughout the Company, and also help ensure that the Company is compliant with legal and regulatory requirements and industry best practices. Copies of the Key Policies are available on the Company's website (<u>www.lithium-argentina.com</u>). Lithium Argentina has multiple reporting channels under the Whistleblower Policy, including the option to submit concerns to an independent service provider on a confidential and anonymous basis using a toll-free telephone line, email or fax. Reports can also be made directly to management, or to the ARC chair with respect to financial matters.

**<u>SERVING AS A DIRECTOR</u>**

**Meeting Attendance and Participation**

Directors are asked and expected to attend Board meetings along with meetings of committees of which they are members, to the extent possible. Directors are expected to participate in a minimum of 75% of the Board meetings on an annual basis. Meetings are generally held virtually, with in-person meetings scheduled from time to time. To facilitate meeting participation, directors are asked to review materials in advance of meetings and to actively participate in discussions, ask questions, and engage in the decision- making process. Directors who are unable to attend a meeting are asked to let the Corporate Secretary or chair of the particular meeting know in advance, and to review the materials and meeting minutes when available.

**Share Ownership Policy**

The Board has adopted a share ownership policy for independent directors ("**Share Ownership Policy**"). The Share Ownership Policy is overseen by the GNCLC and is intended to align the interests of independent directors with the interests of Shareholders. Under the Share Ownership Policy, independent directors must attain ownership in the Company securities equal to three times the gross value of their annual director's fees (inclusive of the value of DSU grants). The directors have five years after the date of their election or appointment, or the effective date of the policy, and three years after any increase to the amount of annual director's fees to achieve the required level of ownership. Valuation is the higher of (i) market price on the last trading date of a calendar year, and (ii) for Common Shares, the average acquisition price, and for DSUs, their grant date value irrespective of vesting conditions. Incentive stock options exercisable to purchase Common Shares ("**Options**"), whether vested or unvested, are excluded from share ownership calculations. All five independent directors currently meet the required threshold under the Share Ownership Policy.

------

**Board Assessments**

The GNCLC is responsible for overseeing and establishing processes to evaluate the effectiveness of the Board, committees and individual directors, along with reviewing charters. It is also responsible for reviewing: (i) the performance of individual directors, the Board as a whole, and committees of the Board; and (ii) the performance evaluation of the chair of each Board committee. These assessments are conducted at least annually on an informal basis and may be performed by a third party. The GNCLC generally requests each director complete annual questionnaire to assist with Board assessments.

**Board Skills Matrix**

As part of the Company's ongoing efforts to ensure that it has the appropriate combination of skills and experience on the Board, the GNCLC has assessed the Board members based on a skills matrix and identified the various areas of expertise that are necessary to provide effective stewardship for the Company. Each director nominee was asked to consider the various areas of expertise identified below and identify whether they consider themselves to have these skills as core competencies, ancillary competencies, or that it was not within their particular area of expertise.

The following skills matrix indicates the number of director nominees who have expertise in the identified area, and is representative of the diverse competencies of the Company's nominees:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| &nbsp;&nbsp;**Relevant Skill** | &nbsp;&nbsp;**Board Expertise** |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Corporate Strategy & Business<br>Development | &nbsp;&nbsp;7 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Mergers & Acquisitions | &nbsp;&nbsp;7 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Finance & Capital Allocation | &nbsp;&nbsp;6 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Leadership of Large Company or<br>HR | &nbsp;&nbsp;5 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Industry Experience (Metals,<br>Mining, Chemicals) | &nbsp;&nbsp;8 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Legal and Regulatory | &nbsp;&nbsp;3 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Risk Management | &nbsp;&nbsp;5 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;ESG | &nbsp;&nbsp;4 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Cybersecurity & Technology and<br>Business Systems | &nbsp;&nbsp;1 |

---

**Director Nominations and Recruitment**

The recruitment and nomination process for directors on the Board is overseen and led by the GNCLC. Recruitment processes may be conducted with or without the assistance of an independent recruitment firm, at the GNCLC's discretion.

------

The process includes consideration by the GNCLC of board size, a skills and competencies assessment of individual directors and the Board as a whole to identify any gaps to be filled through recruitment, selection of key skillsets for recruitment purposes, creation of a candidate shortlists based on factors such as candidates' backgrounds, prior and current work experience, areas of expertise, and general availability to dedicate sufficient time and attention to Board and committee matters. Interviews are then conducted in the first round by a panel of GNCLC members, and for candidates who move on to the second round, by a panel of other Board directors, followed by deliberations by the two panels as to candidates' assessed fit and suitability, and completing background and reference checks. Selected nominees who agree to the role are then recommended by the GNCLC to the Board, who approves the nomination of candidates for election at Shareholder meetings or for appointment as Board directors outside of Shareholder meetings. Any nominee director must not have a significant conflicting public company association, or other conflict of interest that would prevent them from joining the Board.

The Board seeks directors who have solid track records in management and come from diverse backgrounds that are relevant to the Company's business, including finance, mining exploration and development, operating experience, and experience in other relevant industries in order to ensure diversities of background, experience and opinion, and to facilitate a culture of ethical business conduct. The Board has also adopted the Code which summarizes the legal, ethical and regulatory standards that the Company must follow to promote integrity and deter wrongdoing. It represents a standard for all directors that reinforces the seriousness of the Company's commitment to ethical business conduct and it is mandatory for every director to acknowledge annually that they have received, reviewed and understood the Code and that their business conduct is in compliance with the Code.

**Board Term Limits**

Term limits for directors or other mechanisms for Board renewal have not been adopted by the GNCLC, as the GNCLC has determined that currently no appreciable benefit would be derived from the introduction of term or retirement age limits. The GNCLC considers both the length of service of individual directors, the average term of the Board as a whole and the turnover of directors when proposing nominees to stand for election at the annual meeting of Shareholders, and strives to achieve a balance between depth of experience and the need for renewal and new perspectives.

**Majority Voting Policy**

The Swiss Code and the Articles provide that elections of the members of the Board, including the Chair of the Board, require a majority of all of the votes represented. Any nominee who does not receive a majority of votes for his or her election will not be elected to the Board. Prior to its continuation to Switzerland, the Company had a majority voting policy. Although the Company no longer has a majority voting policy, it will continue to respect the majority voting requirements of the TSX.

**<u>BOARD EDUCATION</u>**

The Company encourages continuing education for Board directors to allow them to stay apprised of emerging issues, trends and best practices from a governance perspective, and issues relevant to the Company's business as a development stage mining company with projects in Argentina. Board members are also encouraged to participate in seminars, conferences and professional development courses that further their knowledge about matters relevant to the Board or committee they are members of, and their knowledge of the Company's business. Members of the ARC, in particular, are encouraged to attend conferences related to accounting and finance issues to maintain and further their knowledge of issues falling within the oversight of the ARC, and members independently attend seminars and sessions offered externally in this regard. Lithium Argentina offers internal education sessions to its Board members each year, with a corporate governance workshop and an update on internal ESG initiatives.

In addition, informational updates are provided to the Board from time to time by senior management and professional advisors at scheduled meetings or informally, generally focusing on specific aspects of the business or industry that are deemed particularly relevant or important, or on topics that the Board considers to be beneficial. Board members are also invited to attend internal continuing education offered to Company employees, such as cybersecurity awareness training.

------

Visits to the Company's projects are also important educational opportunities. Directors are generally given tours of the properties to provide them with additional insight into the business and to encourage interaction with local management and personnel.

**<u>BOARD ORIENTATION</u>**

New directors on the Board as part of the onboarding process are provided with an orientation that includes meetings with the Company's senior management team. These meetings are intended to equip new directors with information about the Company's business, history and current status of operations, its strategy, goals and objectives, major policies, significant partners and service providers, the political environment and geopolitical considerations in the jurisdictions where the Company operates, and to further increase their awareness about the lithium industry, lithium markets and pricing, developments in the electric vehicle and battery markets, recent analyst reports, information about the Code, information pertaining to personal liabilities, the Company's insurance program, requirements for purchasing, exercising and selling Company-issued securities (Common Shares, Incentive Plan securities such as DSUs, RSUs and Options, and other convertible securities such as warrants), and rules regarding insider trading and non-public information. New directors also participate in office and site visits, and have the opportunity to meet with staff throughout the organization.

New directors are also provided with the Company's policies, including the Code, the Board's mandate, committee charters, position descriptions and other information about the Company.

**<u>COMMITTEES OF THE BOARD</u>**

The Board has three standing committees, each with a written charter setting out the duties and responsibilities for the committee and its members, areas of committee oversight and the process for reporting to the Board. Directors are appointed annually to the committees after the annual meeting of Shareholders. The current members of each committee and their independence status are set out below.

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| **Committee** | **Members** | **Independence** |
| **Audit and Risk Committee** | Robert Doyle (Chair)<br>George Ireland<br>Calum Morrison | Independent<br>Independent<br>Independent |
| **GNCLC** | Calum Morrison (Chair)<br>Robert Doyle<br>George Ireland | Independent<br>Independent<br>Independent |
| **Sustainable Development Committee** | Diego Lopez Casanello (Chair)<br>John Kanellitsas<br>Franco Mignacco<br>Monica Moretto | Independent<br>Not Independent<br>Not Independent<br>Independent |

---

All committees have the authority to retain independent legal counsel or other advisors and to set advisor compensation.

The Board has adopted written charters for each of its committees, with each charter specifying the responsibilities and duties of each committee Chair. The charters of each committee of the Board are available on the Company's website (<u>www.lithium-argentina.com</u>).

------

**Audit and Risk Committee**

The ARC assists the Board in its oversight functions as they relate to the integrity of the financial statements and financial reporting, accounting processes, internal controls, and matters concerning independent external auditors, including direct communication with external auditors.

The ARC's primary areas of responsibility include:

* Overseeing the integrity of the Company's financial statements and reviewing the Company's financial disclosure and reporting;

* Overseeing the integrity and performance of the Company's internal audit processes, including the internal audit function;

* Monitoring the qualifications, independence and performance of the Company's external auditor;

***Composition of the Audit and Risk Committee***

The Company's ARC currently consists of Robert Doyle (Chair), George Ireland and Calum Morrison. National Instrument 52-110 - *Audit Committees* ("**NI 52-110**") provides that a member of an audit committee is "independent" if the member has no direct or indirect material relationship with the Company, which could, in the view of the Board, reasonably interfere with the exercise of the member's independent judgement. The Board has determined that all members of the ARC are "independent" directors. All members of the ARC are financially literate, and two members are designated as financial experts, being Robert Doyle and Calum Morrison. "Financially literate" means the individuals have the ability to read and understand a company's financial statements of a similar level of extent and complexity as can be expected of the financial reporting by the Company.

Based on their business and educational experiences, each ARC member has a reasonable understanding of the accounting principles used by the Company; an ability to assess the general application of such principles in connection with the accounting for estimates, accruals and reserves; experience preparing, auditing, analyzing or evaluating financial statements that present a breadth and level of complexity of issues that can reasonably be expected to be raised by the Company's financial statements, or experience actively supervising one or more individuals engaged in such activities; and an understanding of internal controls and procedures for financial reporting. All members of the ARC have had several years of experience in senior executive roles or as board members of significant business enterprises in which they assumed substantial financial and operational responsibility.

***Reliance on Certain Exemptions***

During the most recently completed financial year, the Company has not relied on certain exemptions set out in NI 52-110, namely section 2.4 (*De Minimus Non-audit Services*), section 3.2 (*Initial Public Offerings*), section 3.4 (*Events Outside Control of Member*), section 3.5 (*Death, Disability or Resignation of Audit Committee Member*), and any exemption, in whole or in part, in Part 8 (*Exemptions*).

------

***Audit and Risk Committee Oversight***

At no time since the commencement of the Company's most recently completed financial year was a recommendation of the ARC to nominate or compensate an external auditor not adopted by the Board.

***Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures***

The ARC chair is authorized to pre-approve all non-audit services to be provided to the Company or its subsidiary entities by the Company's auditor, subject to the chair reporting the pre-approval(s) to the ARC at the ARC's meeting subsequent to said approval(s).

At no time since the commencement of the Company's most recently completed financial year has the Company relied upon section 3.8 (*Acquisition of Financial Literacy*) of NI 52-110.

**Governance, Nomination, Compensation and Leadership Committee**

The GNCLC has a written charter setting out its responsibilities. Generally, the GNCLC assists the Board with oversight of the following matters:

* Identifying individuals qualified to become Board and Board committee members and recommending that the Board select director nominees for appointment or election to the Board;

------

* Developing and recommending corporate governance guidelines and practices for the Company to the Board to consider;

* Reviewing Executive Management Team development and succession planning for the Company;

Committee oversight also extends to setting annual corporate goals and objectives for the Company, which in turn form the basis for performance evaluations for senior management. The GNCLC also determines performance-based awards for the CEO and Chair based on their annual performance reviews. Further details regarding this process are set out in the section titled "*Executive Compensation*" of the Circular.

All members of the GNCLC have the skills and experience necessary to oversee compensation matters based on their prior management roles with public and private companies. For more information about the skills and experience of each committee member, see their bios under the section titled "*Directors Disclosure, Nominees*".

**Sustainable Development Committee**

The SDC assists the Board with oversight of the following matters:

* The review and reporting to the Board on corporate policies, procedures and practices with respect to managing the risks and opportunities associated with:

o Health and safety;

o Environmental matters including water, waste, biodiversity, reclamation, closure, carbon emissions, air quality management and responsible production;

o Social engagement and social responsibilities including but not limited to interactions with local communities, governments, Indigenous communities, academic institutions, and industry, policy and advocacy groups; and

o Sustainable development and business practices as they relate to environmental, safety, social responsibility and related matters in the conduct of the Company's activities; and

* The review and monitoring of Company's sustainability reporting, as well as the Company's alignment and audits against sustainability.

The proper care of the environment and the health and safety of the Company's workforce is integral to its organization and the communities in which it operates. Accordingly, Lithium Argentina and its subsidiaries conduct operations with a focus on sustainability, and protecting and minimizing impacts to local communities, the environment and wildlife to the extent possible. The Company's commitment extends to, among other things:

* Complying with the standards set by the applicable environmental laws and regulations of the countries and regions in which it operates, and additional environmental standards and practices that are voluntarily adopted by the Company;

------

* Exploring, designing, constructing, operating and planning for closures of mining and processing operations by utilizing effective and proven practices that minimize adverse environmental impacts;

* Conducting regular reviews and reporting findings to management and the Board in respect of environmental, sustainability, health, safety and community relations matters; and

* Striving to continually improve its environmental performance by designing and developing operations to minimize environmental impacts through initiatives like carbon footprint reduction and tailings waste management, and other mitigation measures.

**<u>DIRECTOR COMPENSATION</u>**

The main objective of Lithium Argentina's director compensation program is to attract and retain directors with a broad range of skills and strategic expertise who are also able to successfully carry out the Board's mandate. As a company with international operations, directors are required to devote significant time and energy to the performance of their duties, including preparing for and attending Board meetings and mine site visits, participating on Board committees and ensuring that they stay informed about Lithium Argentina's business and trends and developments affecting the mining industry, generally, and the mining industry in the countries in which we operate.

The Company's director compensation program has been redesigned to be competitive with the market in which we compete for qualified directors. The program is reviewed with the assistance of an independent compensation consultant from time to time to allow the Company to keep attracting and retaining qualified directors to serve on our Board.

The GNCLC, on behalf of the Board, is responsible for overseeing the Company's executive compensation program.

In 2023, the Board adopted an Incentive Compensation Recovery Policy, which provides for the recovery of erroneously awarded incentive compensation from covered executives in the event that the Company is required to prepare an accounting restatement due to material non-compliance of the Company with any financial reporting requirements under U.S. securities laws and NYSE requirements. A copy of the Incentive Compensation Recovery Policy can be found on the Company's website at www.lithium-argentina.com.

**<u>EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION PHILOSOPHY</u>**

The Company's goal is to offer a compensation program that is competitive within the median range of a select group of industry peers for executive compensation comparison purposes, with the overall focus of the program being to offer competitive base compensation to executives and pay for strong performance through an annual performance management program, with a particular emphasis on compensating executives through equity securities to better align executives' financial interests with the interests of shareholders. The goals of the Company's executive compensation program are:

* To attract, motivate and retain high performing executives through market competitive base salaries and employee benefits, which are offered throughout the organization;

* To pay for performance of its executives through the performance management program, which includes performance reviews and awards based on a combination of individual performance and the attainment of corporate and individual goals and objective each year, thereby furthering the interests of the Company, and adding an at-risk component to executive compensation;

* To recognize the contribution of its executives to the Company's profitability and long-term growth through the award of short-term and long-term equity incentives based on executive and corporate performance; and

* To align the financial interests of executives with the interests of Shareholders and the Company's overall performance through the award of equity incentives that expose executives to the risks and rewards of ownership of the Company's equity securities.

As an operational stage lithium mining and processing company that recently commenced production of battery grade lithium products, Lithium Argentina is dependent on individuals with specialized skills and knowledge related to mining exploration, development and operations, capital projects management, chemical processing for lithium products, corporate finance, legal, human resources, and other areas of business or management expertise. The Company operates in regions where competition for talent is increasingly strong, the number of opportunities for job seekers is growing and where it is increasingly important for companies to have competitive compensation programs and practices in place to retain and attract talent.

For the year ended December 31, 2025, the compensation program included the following components: base salary, short-term incentive ("**STI**") annual performance award payable in cash and/or short-term vesting RSUs (in such proportion as determined by the GNCLC), long-term incentive ("**LTI**") performance award payable 100% in three year vesting RSUs, and employee benefits such as retirement savings plan contributions, extended health, dental, life and disability insurance, and a health and wellness benefit to encourage a healthy lifestyle for the Company's executives and staff generally. For the portion of STI paid in RSUs instead of cash, executives received an additional 25% in STI.

Lithium Argentina maintains a performance-based compensation framework that is designed to drive high performance by providing substantial upside for outstanding results while maintaining a strong accountability mechanism. By linking executive rewards to corporate achievements, individual contributions, and broader strategic and operational considerations, Lithium Argentina reinforces a pay-for- performance culture that incentivizes sustained value creation.

------

In determining the actual annual bonus awards, the GNCLC and the Board carefully considered the following corporate highlights, as well as other qualitative and quantitative factors, including market conditions, strategic priorities and leadership effectiveness:

* the continued ramp-up and operational execution at Cauchari-Olaroz;

* the advancement of a scalable regional growth platform through the announced definitive agreement to consolidate the Pozuelos-Pastos Grandes Basin pursuant to a new joint venture with Ganfeng;

* a related $130 million corporate debt facility;

* the completion of the corporate domicile migration to Switzerland;

* the refinancing of project level debts; and

* the reduction of corporate overhead costs.

These milestones, together with continued progress on permitting, development planning, liquidity initiatives and ESG priorities, required significant time, leadership and execution by the Company's executives.

These accomplishments highlight Lithium Argentina's strategic focus on continuous improvement of operations and enhancing shareholder value through disciplined growth and operational efficiency.

**<u>COMPENSATION GOVERNANCE</u>**

Compensation matters are overseen by the GNCLC. The members of the GNCLC are Calum Morrison (Chair), George Ireland and Robert Doyle. All members of the GNCLC are current or former executive officers/directors of public or private companies, providing them with an understanding of executive compensation policies and practices, along with practical experience as to the workings of such programs and policies. The GNCLC also has the ability to engage external advisors to support committee members in fulfilling the mandate of the GNCLC.

**<u>PERFORMANCE EVALUATION AND COMPENSATION PROCESS</u>**

The Company follows an internal compensation planning process. Parties participating in the process include management, the GNCLC and an independent compensation advisor as engaged from time to time. Executive compensation decisions and recommendations by management are made by the CEO and Executive Chair (the "**Management Compensation Committee**"). The Management Compensation Committee evaluates annual performance reviews and makes recommendations to the GNCLC on performance awards for executives other than the CEO and Executive Chair. The GNCLC then reviews the recommendations in light of the Company's compensation and retention strategy to ensure proposed awards are aligned with the overall design of the compensation program and the Company's business needs and seeks input from the independent compensation consultant as needed. Annual performance evaluations for the CEO and Executive Chair are assessed by the GNCLC, which as a committee determines performance awards for these executives. Once the GNCLC and the Management Compensation Committee have agreed on final performance awards and any changes to executive compensation, these are submitted by the GNCLC with a committee recommendation for Board consideration. Board approval is required for items such as equity compensation grants, including STI and LTI equity awards, and salary changes for the CEO, Executive Chair and other senior officers of the Company.

The Company historically engaged an independent compensation consultant to conduct a bi-annual review of executive compensation, benchmarked for compensation of a selected peer group. This process is overseen by the GNCLC, which receives recommendations from the consultant and determines if any changes are needed to the executive compensation program and levels of compensation. In non-review years, the Management Compensation Committee will consider cost-of-living adjustments to base salary for executives along with other staff and provide a recommendation for consideration by the GNCLC based on changes to indices measuring inflationary conditions in the regions where the executives and staff work.

**<u>COMPENSATION BENCHMARKING</u>**

Benchmarking of executive compensation compares actual and target compensation against a peer group to benchmark for the position, organizational role and scope of responsibility. The Peer Group for 2025 was recommended by Lane Caputo and selected based on the criteria set out below.

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| &nbsp;&nbsp;**Criteria for Selection as Compensation Peers in 2025** | &nbsp;&nbsp;**Criteria for Selection as Compensation Peers in 2025** |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;**Industry** | &nbsp;&nbsp;Companies operating in industries that will overlap with the Company's business targeting battery-grade lithium products, being the diversified metals and mining industry (including lithium) |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;**Geographic Location** | &nbsp;&nbsp;Publicly traded companies headquartered in North America were selected as many of the Company's executives are based there and the Company is listed on the NYSE and TSX, along with Australia where many global, public lithium companies are headquartered |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;**Size** | &nbsp;&nbsp;Comparable size to the Company based on market capitalization, enterprise value and projected revenues, with the Company falling near the median point compared to peers |

The GNCLC reviews each element of compensation for market competitiveness, and it may weigh a particular element more heavily based on the respective executive's role and responsibilities within the Company. The GNCLC's focus is on remaining competitive in the market with respect to the Company's total compensation program to compete for executive talent, in addition to rewarding for high levels of corporate, individual and share price performance.

**Base Salary**

Base salaries are set with the goal of being competitive with corporations of a comparable size and stage of development, thereby enabling the Company to compete for and retain executive officers critical to the Company's long-term success. The GNCLC and the Board approve the salary ranges for executives based on the peer group compensation benchmarking review generally occurring bi-annually. Salary determinations for executives by the GNCLC and management are made with consideration of the Company's financial resources and the following criteria, among others:

* The particular responsibilities related to the position;

* Salaries paid by comparable businesses and factoring in market conditions for talent;

* The experience level of the executive; and

* The executive's overall performance or expected performance (in the case of a newly hired executive).

------

An assessment of these criteria is made by the GNCLC for the CEO and Executive Chair. For other Named Executives excluding the CEO and Executive Chair, the assessment is made by the CEO, and a recommendation is made to the GNCLC for feedback and recommendation to the Board. Final recommendations are then made to the Board to approve base salary adjustments.

**Short-Term Incentive Compensation**

The Company awards annual STI compensation to executives based on the achievement of corporate and individual goals for the year. STI awards have the objective of motivating executives to achieve performance objectives that are aligned with the overall strategic objectives of the Company during the period.

A target range for an STI award as a percentage of salary is generally set for each executive position. Actual bonuses awarded are subject to a multiplier depending on actual performance for the year. STI compensation is discretionary and generally consists of a combination of cash and a grant of RSUs. RSUs are awarded under the Incentive Plan.

Management determines recommendations for STI awards based on the outcome of annual performance reviews for each executive other than the CEO and Executive Chair. New grants take into consideration corporate and individual performance for the annual period and generally do not factor in prior grants made to an individual except the Company is nearing the maximum number of Common Shares issuable under the Incentive Plan. Recommendations are submitted by the GNCLC for consideration and approval. The GNCLC determines STI awards for the CEO and Executive Chair, while all other awards are recommended by management with the GNCLC providing feedback as needed on the recommended amount of such awards. All grants for equity STI awards are approved by the Board.

During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company utilized a corporate performance scorecard with objectives and various range weights based on position level as well as performance achieving individual goals for the year. Corporate goals and objectives were then cascaded down throughout the organization, after being approved by the GNCLC.

In determining the STI awards, the GNCLC and Board carefully considered the following corporate highlights, as well as other qualitative and quantitative factors, including market conditions, strategic priorities, and leadership effectiveness:

* the continued ramp-up and operational execution at Cauchari-Olaroz;

* the advancement of a scalable regional growth platform through the announced definitive agreement to consolidate the Pozuelos-Pastos Grandes Basin pursuant to a new joint venture with Ganfeng;

* a related $130 million corporate debt facility;

* the completion of the corporate domicile migration to Switzerland;

* the refinancing of project level debts; and

* the reduction of corporate overhead costs.

For 2025, the STI target and actual payout for each Named Executive is set out below as a percentage of base salary. The STI award may be revised above or below the target set for any of the Company's senior management, including Named Executives, in the Board's discretion on recommendation from the GNCLC.

In 2025, the Named Executives could elect to take their respective STI awards in a mix of cash and RSUs. For the portion of STI paid in RSUs instead of cash, executives received an additional 25% in STI to account for the STI being at risk compensation and to help the Company conserve its cash (the "**At-Risk STI**"). The table below shows the value of the cash, RSUs, At-Risk STI and total STI received by the Named Executives.

**Long-Term Incentive Compensation**

LTI compensation is another key component of the Company's executive compensation program. LTI compensation is awarded to motivate performance by executives and promote retention with a strong focus on long-term alignment of executives' interests with those of shareholders. Executives are also provided with an opportunity to share in the rewards of the Company's performance, together with the associated risks of ownership of the Company's securities.

For the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company awarded RSUs to executives as LTI awards under the Incentive Plan. The RSUs have a three-year vesting period. The Company did not grant any Options as part of LTI, however, has the discretion to award Options under the Incentive Plan and may consider Options grants in the future based on market conditions and compensation practices.

LTI awards for the CEO and Executive Chair are determined by the GNCLC, and for other executives are determined by the CEO and reviewed by the Management Compensation Committee prior to their recommendation to the GNCLC, with all awards being determined based on a combination of individual performance and consideration of long-term retention. The GNCLC then makes a recommendation for Board approval of all LTI awards to be granted as equity compensation.

The LTI awarded to each Named Executive for 2025 is set out below, as a percentage of base salary. Similar to STI awards, an LTI award may be revised for any of the Company's senior management, including Named Executives, in the Board's discretion on recommendation from the GNCLC.

In addition, certain executives received a special one-time grant of LTI compensation (the "**Special LTI**") outside of the standard compensation for retention purposes to retain key executives in an extremely competitive market and in recognition of leadership and execution of key strategic initiatives.

**Benefits**

The Company provides a benefits program, including health, dental, life, critical illness and disability insurance, employee and family assistance program, and a health and wellness spending account to encourage a healthy lifestyle for its employees, including Named Executives.

**Management of Risks**

The GNCLC and the Board periodically assess the implications of the risks associated with the Company's compensation policies and practices. The GNCLC maintains sufficient discretion and flexibility in implementing compensation decisions such that unintended consequences in remuneration can be minimized, while still being responsive to market influences in a competitive environment. Through the GNCLC Charter, the GNCLC has sole authority to retain consultants to assist it in the evaluation of compensation of senior management and directors. The Company has policies in place to mitigate compensation policies and practices that could encourage Named Executives to take inappropriate and excessive risk. All material contracts and agreements require Board approval. The Board also approves annual and capital budgets.

------

The Company has a Securities Trading Policy, which applies to employees, officers, directors and consultants ("**Covered Persons**") of the Company, its subsidiaries and joint venture interests, and also extends to any trading by trusts and holding companies controlled by Covered Persons. The Company also expects Covered Persons will ensure compliance by family and other members of their household.

The Securities Trading Policy stipulates that the Company and its Covered Persons are subject to restrictions against trading in securities of the Company while in possession of material information that has not been publicly disclosed. The Securities Trading Policy also prohibits hedging and derivatives trading, engaging in short sales and trading on margin or pledging the Company's securities. The Securities Trading Policy is posted on the Company's website.

**<u>PERFORMANCE GRAPH</u>**

The graph and table on the following page compare the cumulative shareholder return on a C$100 investment in Common Shares to a similar investment in companies comprising the S&P/TSX Composite Total Return Index, including dividend reinvestment, for the period from January 1, 2020 to December 31, 2025.

![](exhibit99-3xu005.jpg)

Notes:

(1) The cumulative return of the Company's Common Shares is based on the closing prices of the Common Shares on the TSX on December 31, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024 and 2025 or, if there was no trading on such date, the closing price on the last trading day prior to such date. It has been assumed that upon completion of the Separation Transaction, Lithium Americas Corp. common shares received were sold on October 4, 2023, and that the proceeds were reinvested in the Common Shares.

(2) The S&P/TSX Composite Total Return Index is a total return index (C$), the calculation of which includes dividends and distributions reinvested.

As shown in the graph above, during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, the Company's Common Share price declined relative to the S&P/TSX Composite Total Return Index. This followed a period of significant outperformance in earlier years, particularly through 2021 and 2022, when the Company's share price benefited from strong investor interest in lithium development assets and key project milestones. While the Company's relative share price performance moderated during 2023, 2024 and 2025, the cumulative shareholder return over the full five-year period remained meaningfully higher than that of the S&P/TSX Composite Total Return Index. The Company believes that the more recent decline in share price performance was driven primarily by external factors, including a sustained downturn in lithium commodity prices, broader macroeconomic conditions, and headwinds affecting electric vehicle demand, including elevated interest rates and inflation. Over the same period, the price of lithium declined by approximately 40%, which negatively impacted equity valuations across the sector.

------

The trend in overall compensation paid to the Company's executive officers over this period has not directly tracked short-term fluctuations in the market price of the Common Shares or the S&P/TSX Composite Total Return Index. However, as a significant portion of executive compensation is delivered through equity- based awards, executive compensation remains substantially aligned with long-term shareholder value creation. In addition, the unique circumstances faced by the Company in 2025 required significant management effort and leadership, including the continued ramp-up and operational execution at Cauchari- Olaroz, the completion of the Company's corporate migration to Switzerland and rebranding, and the advancement of a scalable regional growth platform through the announced consolidation of the Pozuelos and Pastos Grandes basins with Ganfeng, together with related development planning, permitting and liquidity initiatives. Given the Company's stage of development and exposure to commodity price cycles, the market price of the Common Shares may be volatile and is not a primary determinant of annual cash compensation. The value of long-term incentive compensation in the form of performance share units ("**PSUs**") and restricted share units ("**RSUs**") remains directly influenced by Common Share price performance.

**<u>SUMMARY COMPENSATION TABLE</u>**

The table below sets out all compensation for Named Executives for the 2025, 2024 and 2023 fiscal years, including direct and indirect compensation. Named Executives who are also directors of the Company are not compensated for their services as directors. Incentive securities issued by the Company in replacement of old incentive securities of the Company pursuant to the previously-completed reorganization are not factored into the calculation of the amounts disclosed in the tables below.

In 2025, concurrent with the Company's continuation to Switzerland, the Company entered into new employment agreements with John Kanellitsas, Executive Chair, Sam Pigott, President & CEO (Executive Director & CEO as of January 1, 2026), Alec Meikle, Executive Vice President, Corporate Development (President as of January 1, 2026), and Alex Shulga, Vice President and CFO, to ensure compliance with Swiss law, including amendments to provisions relating to termination and termination upon a change of control. In consideration for entering into these agreements, the Company made a one-time grant of RSUs to the executives with an aggregate grant date fair value of $3,856,246 and which is disclosed in the column "All Other Compensation" in the table below. In addition, the column "All Other Compensation" in the table below contains the At-Risk STI and Special LTI awards.

Notes:

(1) Financial years ended December 31, 2025, December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

(2) Share-based awards consist of RSUs granted under the Incentive Plan in respect of STI and LTI. The amount of equity-settled payment arrangements is based on the estimated fair value at the grant date. For RSUs, the fair value is based on the five-day VWAP of US$7.73 for 2025 RSUs (US$2.78 for 2024 RSUs and US$5.40 for 2023 RSUs) calculated as of the day prior to the grant date.

(3) Non-Equity Incentive Plan Compensation represents the cash STI performance bonuses awarded in each year disclosed in the table.

(4) The fair value of Options granted was estimated on the date of grant using the Black Scholes Option Pricing Model. These Options are exercisable at a price of US$5.18 until April 2, 2031. The key assumptions used under the Black Scholes Option Pricing Model; that were used for the Option awards in the table above were: risk-free rate 4.27%; expected life 7 years; annualized volatility 73.66%; expected dividend rate nil. The Company chose to use the Black Scholes Option Pricing Model as the basis for calculating fair value of the Options granted as this methodology is commonly accepted by issuers. The values presented are consistent with the accounting values used in the Company's audited financial statements.

(5) The fair value of Options granted was estimated on the date of grant using the Black Scholes Option Pricing Model. These Options are exercisable at a price of $3.85 until June 20, 2031. The key assumptions used under the Black Scholes Option Pricing Model; that were used for the Option awards in the table above were: risk-free rate 4.27%; expected life 7 years; annualized volatility 73.66%; expected dividend rate nil. The Company chose to use the Black Scholes Option Pricing Model as the basis for calculating fair value of the Options granted as this methodology is commonly accepted by issuers. The values presented are consistent with the accounting values used in the Company's audited financial statements.

(6) For RSUs, the fair value is based on the five-day VWAP of US$3.85 calculated as of the day prior to the grant date.

(7) Appointed Chief Executive Officer effective from March 19, 2024. Ceased to be President as of January 1, 2026.

(8) Equity-based compensation consists of RSUs and Options as one time sign-on bonus granted under employment contracts.

(9) Appointed Executive Vice President, Corporate Development on July 31, 2024. Promoted to President effective as of January 1, 2026.

(10) Includes contractor fees before appointment as Executive Vice President, Corporate Development.

(11) 2023 compensations are adjusted to include equity-based compensation awarded in June 2024 for 2023 performance.

(12) All other compensation includes (i) the Special LTI awards; (ii) RSUs granted in connection with new employment agreements and (iii) the At-Risk STI.

(13) Transitioned to non-Executive Chair on March 31, 2026.

**Fair Value of Option Grants, RSUs, PSUs and DSUs**

Under the Incentive Plan, which was implemented in March 2016, the Company may grant RSUs, PSUs, DSUs and Options to directors, officers, employees and service providers. The cost of equity-settled payment arrangements is recorded based on the estimated fair value at the grant date and charged to earnings over the vesting period.

------

Following a 2025 review of the Company's Board compensation and LTI compensation for executives by Lane Caputo, the Board determined that equity incentives for executive officers should be in the form of RSUs and DSUs to directors, with no further Option awards. The fair value of Options granted by the Company is treated as compensation costs in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards 2, Share-based Payment.

Each tranche of an equity award is considered to be a separate award, with its own vesting period and grant date fair value.

**<u>INCENTIVE PLAN AWARDS</u>**

**Outstanding Share-Based Awards and Option-Based Awards**

Details about all awards outstanding under incentive plans of the Company as of December 31, 2025, including awards granted during 2025 to each Named Executive, are set out below.

**<u>OTHER COMPENSATION AND PENSION BENEFITS</u>**

The Company did not have any other pension, retirement or deferred compensation plans, including defined benefit or defined contribution plans.

**<u>EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS</u>**

The following descriptions of employment agreements with the Company's Named Executives are effective as of December 31, 2025. On January 23, 2025, in connection with the Company's continuation to Switzerland, the Company entered into new employment agreements (the "**2025 Employment Agreements**" and each a "**2025 Employment Agreement**") with John Kanellitsas, Executive Chair (Non- Executive Chair as of March 31, 2026), Sam Pigott, President & CEO (Executive Director & CEO as of January 1, 2026), Alec Meikle, Executive Vice President, Corporate Development (President as of January 1, 2026), and Alex Shulga, Vice President and CFO. The 2025 Employment Agreements reflect certain changes required by Swiss law that, among other things, removed payments on termination and on termination after a "Change of Control". It was necessary to enter into the 2025 Employment Agreements as the employment agreements in place prior to the Company's continuation to Switzerland for Messrs. Kanellitsas, Pigott, Meikle and Shulga contained termination and termination after a "Change of Control" provisions that were prohibited by Swiss law. In consideration for entering into the 2025 Employment Agreements and the adverse changes to the respective executives' termination and termination after a "Change of Control" provisions, the Company made a one-time grant of RSUs to the executives with an aggregate grant date fair value of $3,856,246.

------

The 2025 Employment Agreements also provide for certain Notice Period Payments and Non-Compete Payments (each as defined below) in the event of written notice by either the Company or the executive, as applicable, that the applicable executive's employment with the Company will be terminated. The material terms of such payments are the following:

* 12 months' advance written notice must be provided by either the Company or the executive to terminate his employment, unless the termination is by the Company for "cause" or by the executive without "good reason" (as such terms are defined in the 2025 Employment Agreements) (the "**Notice Period**").

* The parties will determine the extent, duration, and nature of the applicable executive's active employment services to be provided during the Notice Period, and the time at which such active services cease will be the beginning of the "Garden Leave Period."

* The executives will receive continued payments during the Notice Period (the "**Notice Period Payments**") equal to the following: continued payments of (1) base salary and (2) an amount equal to (A) the pro rata STI bonus approved by the Board for the period(s) that the Notice Period encompasses during which the executive continues to perform services to the Company (if any) and (B) the executive's average STI bonus award during the past three years or, such lesser number of years that executive has been eligible to earn an STI bonus (the "**Average STI Award**"), prorated for the period commencing on, (i) if the executive does not continue to perform services to the Company during the Notice Period, the date immediately following the date on which notice of termination is given and ending on the date on which the Notice Period expires, and (ii) if the executive continues to perform services to the Company during part of the Notice Period, the date on which the "Garden Leave Period" commences and the date on which the Notice Period expires.

* The executives will receive payments during the one-year period following expiration of the Notice Period in exchange for their compliance with non-competition, non-solicitation, and other restrictive covenant obligations (the "**Non-Compete Payments**") equal to the following: (1) one year of base salary and (2) the Average STI Award.

* Both the Non-Compete Payments and the Notice Period Payments are subject to offset and/or reduction in the event that an executive materially breaches any of their restrictive covenant obligations or earn compensation from new employment (and/or other activity) that exceeds a certain threshold amount set forth in the 2025 Employment Agreements.

* Certain of the Notice Period Payments and Non-Compete Payments will be subject to the applicable executive's execution and non-revocation of a release of claims in favor of the Company.

As at December 31, 2025, Mr. Kanellitsas was paid a base annual salary of $420,000, and was eligible to receive short-term incentive compensation at a target rate of 75% of base salary and long-term incentive compensation at a target rate of 75% of base salary.

------

Mr. Kanellitsas' 2025 Employment Agreement removed Mr. Kanellitsas' entitlement to severance, both on termination of employment without "Cause", because of "Disability" or for "Good Reason" and if there is a "Change of Control" and Mr. Kanellitsas' employment is terminated by the Company or Mr. Kanellitsas resigns for "Good Reason".

Mr. Kanellitsas' transition to Non- Executive Chair, in conjunction with Mr. Meikle's appoint to President, reflects his faith in Mr. Pigott and Mr. Meikle's ability to oversee the Company's day-to-day operations and long-term value creation for the Company's shareholders, in addition to strengthening the Company's governance and management structure.

Instead, the 2025 Employment Agreement provides for the Notice Period Payments and Non-Compete Payments.

***Alex Shulga, Vice President and Chief Financial Officer***

As at December 31, 2025, Mr. Shulga was paid a base annual salary of $350,000 and was eligible to receive short-term incentive compensation and long-term incentive compensation.

Mr. Shulga's 2025 Employment Agreement removed Mr. Shulga's entitlement to severance, both on termination of employment without "Cause", because of "Disability" or for "Good Reason" and if there is a "Change of Control" and Mr. Shulga's employment is terminated by the Company or Mr. Shulga resigns for "Good Reason". Instead, the 2025 Employment Agreement provides for the Notice Period Payments and Non-Compete Payments.

------

If at any time there is a "Change of Control" during the employment agreement (as defined in the employment agreement), and within twelve (12) months of such "Change of Control", Mr. Chiappori's employment is terminated by the Company or Mr. Chiappori resigns for "Good Reason" then Mr. Chiappori shall be entitled to the Chiappori Severance Package, except the Chiappori Severance Period shall be 18 months.

**<u>TERMINATION AND CHANGE OF CONTROL BENEFITS</u>**

The following table discloses, as of December 31, 2025, the estimated incremental payments and benefits that might be paid under the various plans and arrangements to current Named Executives in the event of termination without cause and termination following a change of control (assuming an effective date of December 31, 2025, for each termination scenario).

Notes:

(1) The entitlement of the Named Executives to payment upon a change of control is not necessarily in substitution for, and may be in addition to, amounts payable to such Named Executives upon termination by the Company.

(2) Amounts above include, among other things, amounts payable in lieu of bonuses that would have been earned during the applicable severance period.

(3) For the equity component, the amount represents the realizable value as of December 31, 2025, of Options, RSUs and PSUs which are subject to accelerated vesting. The value of unexercised "in-the-money options" is calculated on the basis of the difference between the closing price of the Common Shares on the NYSE on December 31, 2025, of $5.58 and the exercise price of the Options. The value of accelerated RSUs and PSUs is calculated on the basis of the closing price of the Common Shares on the NYSE on December 31, 2025, of $5.58.

(4) Transitioned to non-Executive Chair on March 31, 2026.

(5) Appointed CEO effective from March 19, 2024. Ceased to be President and remains solely CEO as of January 1, 2026.

**SECURITIES AUTHORIZED FOR ISSUANCE UNDER EQUITY INCENTIVE PLANS**

Under the conditional capital for equity incentive plans under the Articles, the Company may issue up to 16,193,223 Common Shares. The current Incentive Plan is the Company's only equity incentive plan and governs all equity incentives awarded by the Company, including RSUs, PSUs, DSUs and Options. The aggregate number of Common Shares that may be subject to issuance, together with any other securities- based compensation arrangements of the Company under the Incentive Plan, must not exceed 8% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares from time to time. Based on the number of outstanding Common Shares issued as of December 31, 2025, 12,992,552 Shares may be reserved for issuance under the Incentive Plan.:

**<u>ANNUAL BURN RATE</u>**

The annual burn rate of the Incentive Plan for the last three financial years is set out below. This figure is calculated by dividing (i) the number of "Awards" granted under the Incentive Plan during the applicable financial year, by (ii) the weighted average number of Common Shares outstanding for the applicable financial year. "Awards" for the purposes of this calculation means all RSUs, PSUs, DSUs and Options.

This calculation does not reflect the new replacement incentive securities issued in exchange for old incentive securities as part of the Separation Transaction.

**<u>SUMMARY OF THE INCENTIVE PLAN</u>**

**Overview**

At the Meeting, Shareholders will be asked to consider, and if deemed appropriate, pass the Amended and Restated Incentive Plan Resolution. See "*Approval of Amended and Restated Incentive Plan*". If at the Meeting, Shareholders do not approve the Amended and Restated Incentive Plan Resolution, the current Incentive Plan, with certain housekeeping and other non-substantive amendments to the Incentive Plan as it pertains to United States participants that do not require Shareholder approval under the TSX Company Manual, will remain as the Company's equity incentive plan. The following provides a summary of the Incentive Plan prior to adoption of the Incentive Plan Amendments.

Below is a summary of the material terms of the Incentive Plan as amended and approved by the Board on January 23, 2025. Amendments to the Incentive Plan consisted primarily of changing references of "Lithium Americas (Argentina) Corp." to "Lithium Argentina AG" in connection with the continuation to Switzerland, revising the definition of "fair market value" and changes necessary to comply with Swiss law in connection with the continuation to Switzerland. The amendments were made without Shareholder approval pursuant to the amendment provisions of the Incentive Plan and the TSX Company Manual. The amendments were accepted by the TSX. Shareholders last approved the Incentive Plan on June 20, 2024. Terms not herein defined shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the Incentive Plan.

The Incentive Plan is the Company's only equity incentive plan and governs all equity incentives awarded by Lithium Argentina, including Options, DSUs, and RSUs, whether time based or in the form of PSUs. The Company is permitted to issue an aggregate of 8% of the Common Shares based on the current number of Common Shares outstanding.

**Summary of the Incentive Plan**

|:---|:---|
| &nbsp;&nbsp;**INCENTIVE PLAN SUMMARY** | &nbsp;&nbsp;**INCENTIVE PLAN SUMMARY** |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;**Plan Type and Shares Available for Award Grants** | &nbsp;&nbsp;Subject to the conditional capital of the Company for equity incentive plans under the Company's Articles, our plan is an 8% "rolling" equity compensation plan, with maximum number of equity awards disclosed in the next table, pursuant to TSX and NYSE requirements. Any increase to the percentage number of awards must be cleared with TSX and NYSE and would generally require shareholder approval. For greater certainty, any increase in the issued and outstanding Common Shares will result in an increase in the available number of Common Shares issuable under the Incentive Plan, and the exercise or settlement of awards under the Incentive Plan will make new grants available under the Incentive Plan. |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;**Eligible Participants** | &nbsp;&nbsp;Directors, executive officers, employees and consultants of the Company and our subsidiaries are eligible for awards under the Incentive Plan. |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;**Award Types** | &nbsp;&nbsp;Options, DSUs, RSUs or PSUs may be awarded under the Incentive Plan to all eligible participants. |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;**Approval of Award Grants** | &nbsp;&nbsp;Under the Incentive Plan, award grants (number, vesting conditions and periods, exercise price, etc.) are generally approved by the Board, on the recommendation of the GNCLC. The CEO also has delegated authority from the Board to approve the grant of a fixed, nominal number of Restricted Share Rights, without Board approval of individual grants. This is generally used for grants to new hires. |

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| &nbsp;&nbsp;**Vesting Periods** | &nbsp;&nbsp;Vesting periods are determined by the Board, on the recommendation of the GNCLC. Vesting of Restricted Share Rights is determined by the Board at the time of grant and shall be specified in the Restricted Share Grant Letter.<br>The Incentive Plan provides that, unless otherwise determined from time to time by the Board, on the recommendation of the GNCLC, Options shall vest and may be exercised (in each case to the nearest full Common Share) during the period which an Option is outstanding (the "**Option Period**") as follows: (a) at any time during the first six (6) months of the Option Period, the optionee may purchase up to 25% of the total number of Common Shares reserved for issuance pursuant to their Option; and (b) at any time during each additional six (6) month period of the Option Period the optionee may purchase an additional 25% of the total number of Common Shares reserved for issuance pursuant to their Option plus any Common Shares not purchased in accordance with the preceding subsection (a) and this subsection (b) until, after the 18th month of the Option Period, 100% of the Option will be exercisable. |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;**Options - Term, Grant Date, Exercise Price and Expiry Date Extension for Blackout Periods** | &nbsp;&nbsp;The Incentive Plan provides that Options generally have a term of five years for exercise upon the payment of an exercise price that is set at the time of grant. The exercise price (which will be set in U.S. dollars) per Common Share of any Option shall be not less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value of the Common Share on the date of grant. At the end of the exercise period, Options expire. The grant date is generally set as (i) the date the GNCLC recommended the Option award to the Board for approval; (ii) the grant date set by the Board; or (iii) for awards approved during a blackout period with issuance to follow post-blackout period end, the date of issuance post-blackout period end.<br>The exercise price for Options granted under the Incentive Plan cannot be less than the closing price of the Common Shares on NYSE on the day immediately prior to the grant date.<br>Options that expire during a blackout period or within 10 days of one ending have their exercise period extended until 10 business days after the end of the blackout period. |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;**Cashless Surrender of Options** | &nbsp;&nbsp;Subject to payment of the applicable share par value, the Incentive Plan provides for cashless surrender of Options by allowing the holder to forego their Options in exchange for receiving a set number of Common Shares determined by calculating the "in the money" value of the Options (i.e. the fair market value of the Common Shares on the business day prior to the date of exercise, less the Option exercise price), times the number of outstanding Options, divided by such fair market value of the Common Shares. |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;**Restricted Share Rights Terms** | &nbsp;&nbsp;Vested Restricted Share Rights are settled in Common Shares issued by the Company, subject to payment of the applicable share par value. Holders who are Canadian residents or generally non-U.S. residents (as permitted by the Board) may defer settlement for any length of time, while holders who are U.S. residents generally must effect settlement during the tax year in which the Restricted Share Rights vest for tax purposes. |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;**Performance Share Units Terms** | &nbsp;&nbsp;PSUs are generally awarded as Restricted Share Rights under the Incentive Plan with performance vesting conditions.<br>PSUs vest three years after grant and are subject to vesting conditions tied to the Common Share price performance relative to the share price performance of a PSUs peer group of public companies.<br>Vested PSUs are settled by the Company issuing an equivalent number of underlying Common Shares, subject to payment of the applicable par value. Holders who are Canadian residents or generally non-U.S. residents may defer settlement for any length of time, while holders who are U.S. residents generally must effect settlement during the tax year in which the PSUs vest for tax purposes. |

| &nbsp;&nbsp;**Deferred Share Units Terms** | &nbsp;&nbsp;DSUs are generally granted to independent directors on the Board (directors who are not also employees of the Company) only, as part of our Board compensation program. The number of DSUs granted is determined by the five- day VWAP of the Common Shares immediately prior to the date of Board approval of the grant.<br>DSUs vest and are settled in Common Shares on a one-for-one basis on the 20th business day after an independent Board director ceases to hold the position. |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;**Change of Control Vesting Acceleration** | &nbsp;&nbsp;In the event of a Change of Control (as defined in the Incentive Plan) pursuant to the dissolution and liquidation of the Company, all Options outstanding will immediately vest and become exercisable on the date of such Change of Control, and all RSUs and PSUs outstanding will immediately vest and be settled by the issuance of Common Shares.<br>If a Triggering Event (as defined in the Incentive Plan) occurs within the 12 months period immediately following other categories of a Change of Control (excluding the dissolution and liquidation of the Company), all outstanding Options will immediately vest and become exercisable on the date of such Triggering Event, and all outstanding RSUs or PSUs will vest immediately and be settled by the issuance of Common Shares. PSUs will be settled in *pro rata* to the performance measurement periods completed prior to the Change of Control and on a one for one basis for future performance measurement periods, if any.<br>DSUs are not covered by a change of control provision under the Incentive Plan as they vest upon departure of a board director who is the holder. Board director departures may or may not occur as part of a change of control event, depending on the circumstances of the event. |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;**Dividends** | &nbsp;&nbsp;If our Board declares dividends, holders of vested RSUs, PSUs and DSUs not settled in Common Shares as of the applicable dividend record date may, at the discretion of the Board, be entitled to receive dividends in the form of additional securities of the same type held. The number of securities will be determined based on the five-day VWAP of the Common Shares on the NYSE. |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;**Insider and Non-Employee Director Award Limits** | &nbsp;&nbsp;Common Shares issued or issuable to insiders under the Incentive Plan are subject to the following upper limits, expressed as a percentage of issued and outstanding Common Shares: a 10% cap for all insiders as a group, at any given time; a 10% cap for all insiders as a group within any one-year period; a 5% cap for any one insider and the insider's associates in any one-year period; and a 5% cap for any individual, at any given time.<br>The aggregate number of Options that may be granted under the y Incentive Plan to any one non-employee director within any one-year period will not exceed a maximum value of US$100,000 worth of securities, and together with any Restricted Share Rights, PSUs and DSUs granted under the Incentive Plan and any securities granted under all other securities based compensation arrangements, such aggregate value will not exceed US$150,000 in any one- year period, subject to caveats set out in the Incentive Plan. |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;**Awards Transfers and Exercises** | &nbsp;&nbsp;Transfers of awards under the Incentive Plan are generally not permitted, except if a holder dies. Generally only holders can exercise awards under the Incentive Plan. |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;**Effect of Retirement, Termination, Other Events on Unvested Awards** | &nbsp;&nbsp;Generally, subject to applicable employment agreements, any unvested awards under the Incentive Plan are forfeited if the holder retires or is terminated prior to the vesting date of the award. The Board has the discretion to accelerate vesting in such cases or allow the awards to continue for their full term. Vesting of Restricted Share Rights and PSUs is automatically accelerated if there is a total disability or death of a holder.<br>If a Participant ceases to be employed by the Company or a Designated Affiliate for cause, no Option held by such participant will, unless otherwise determined by the Board be exercisable following the date on which such Participant ceases to be so engaged. If a Participant ceases to be employed by the Company, or act as a director of, the Company for any reason other than cause then, unless otherwise determined by the Board any Option held by such Participant at the effective date thereof shall become exercisable for a period of up to 12 months thereafter or prior to the expiration of the Option period in respect thereof, whichever is sooner. |

| &nbsp;&nbsp;**Plan Amendments** | &nbsp;&nbsp;The Board may amend, suspend or terminate the Incentive Plan without approval of Shareholders, provided the changes comply with applicable stock exchange requirements; do not negatively impact any awards outstanding under the Incentive Plan; and the period to exercise outstanding Options generally cannot be extended beyond ten (10) years.<br>Without limitation to the foregoing, the types of Incentive Plan changes that could be made by the Board without Shareholder approval generally include: clerical changes or grammar corrections, changes to eligible participants, or changes to requirements about vesting, term of any grant, termination, exercise price and cashless exercise.<br>Shareholder approval is required if the rolling number of awards available for grant under the Incentive Plan will be increased; changes will be made to insider award limits, or increase participation limits on non-employee directors under the Incentive Plan; changes to reduce the exercise price or permit the cancellation and re issuance of outstanding Options; changes to extend the expiry date of Options beyond their original expiry; changes to permit any amendment to permit Options to be transferred other than for normal estate settlement purposes; and changes to reduce the range of amendments requiring Shareholder approval, all as described in the Incentive Plan. |

Therefore, the Board needs to be satisfied that the Company's Executive Management will manage the affairs of the Company in the best interest of the shareholders, and that the arrangements made for the management of the Company's business and affairs are consistent with the Board's duties described below.

**V. Board Structure**

***Board Size***

The number of Directors is set by the shareholders at each annual shareholder meeting. Presently the number of Directors of the Company is eight. The number of Directors may change in the future to ensure a complement of suitable skills and expertise given the Company's stage of development and business activities, however, must according to the articles of association of the Company consist of at least three Directors.

------

***Independent Directors***

The Company intends to monitor best practice recommendations and to fully comply with the Framework's requirements relating to the composition and independence of Board and committee members under applicable legislation and stock exchange rules by the effective date of such legislation and rules or earlier and GNCL Board nominations, to identify additional qualified Board candidates required to meet such requirements.<br>

At least annually the Board shall consider and determine whether a Director nominee would upon election or appointment be independent, including in accordance with all independence standards of the stock exchanges that the Company's securities are then traded on. Generally independence of a director means that the individual is not an employee or member of Executive Management of the Company or any subsidiary, receives no compensation from the Company or a subsidiary except compensation for serving as a Director on the Board, has no material relationship with the Company and generally the individual has no conflicts of interest or other ties to Executive Management, the Company or a subsidiary that would lead to a determination that the individual is unable to exercise judgement independent of Executive Management ("**Independence Standards**"). These same considerations extend to immediate family members of the individual.

A Director nominee is not independent if:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) The Director nominee is, or has been within the last three years, an employee of the Company, or an immediate family member is, or has been within the last three years, an executive officer of the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) The Director nominee has received, or has an immediate family member who has received, during any twelve-month period within the last three years, more than US$120,000 in direct compensation from the Company, other than director and committee fees and pension or other forms of deferred compensation for prior service (provided such compensation is not contingent in any way on continued service).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) (A) The Director nominee is a current partner or employee of a firm that is the Company's internal or external auditor; (B) the Director nominee has an immediate family member who is a current partner of such a firm; (C) the Director nominee has an immediate family member who is a current employee of such a firm and personally works on the Company's audit; or (D) the Director nominee or an immediate family member was within the last three years a partner or employee of such a firm and personally worked on the Company's audit within that time.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) The Director nominee or an immediate family member is, or has been with the last three years, employed as an executive officer of another company where any of the Company's present executive officers at the same time serves or served on that company's compensation committee.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) The Director nominee is a current employee, or an immediate family member is a current executive officer, of a company that has made payments to, or received payments from, the listed company for property or services in an amount which, in any of the last three fiscal years, exceeds the greater of US$1 million, or 2% of such other company's consolidated gross revenues.

A Director nominee's failure to meet the Independence Standards shall not preclude the Board from determining that such Director nominee nonetheless has the requisite integrity, experience, skill and expertise to be an effective Director of the Company.

The Company shall disclose in its notice to the annual general meeting whether a Director nominee is independent.

------

***Election of Directors***

All Directors will stand for election at the annual meeting of shareholders and will serve a one year term that ends at the next annual meeting; unless such Director retires or is removed from office.

***Selection***

The Board, acting on the recommendation of the Governance, Nomination, Compensation and Leadership Committee, will nominate Director candidates for election at each annual meeting of shareholders or an extraordinary meeting of shareholders.

***Qualifications***

Director nominees of the Company should be individuals who are independent and have achieved prominence in their fields, with experience and demonstrated expertise in relevant technical, financial, or strategic disciplines.

A substantial majority of the Board must meet the independence standards described in this Framework, and all candidates must be free from any relationship with management or the Company which would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment. Candidates should be committed to representing the interests of all shareholders and not any particular constituency.

Candidates should among other things bring integrity, insight, and analytical skills to Board deliberations, and must have a commitment to devote the necessary time and attention to properly perform their duties as Director. The Company recognizes the strength and effectiveness of the Board reflects the balance, experience, and diversity of individual Directors; their commitment; and importantly, the ability of Directors to work effectively as a group in carrying out their responsibilities. The Company seeks candidates with diverse experiences who possess the knowledge and skills in areas of importance to the Company.

Acting on the recommendation of the GNCL Committee, the Board shall assign members with particular experience required for service on Board Committees, as described in the respective committee charters.

***Orientation***

New non-employee Directors will receive appropriate orientation from appropriate Senior Officers regarding the Company's business and affairs. New Directors also participate in office and site visits and have the opportunity to meet with the Workforce.

An orientation manual is also provided to new Directors that includes the Company's policies, this Framework, Board committee charters and other information about our Company.

***Change in Status***

To avoid any potential conflict of interest, Directors will not accept a seat on any additional company board without first reviewing the matter with the GNCL Committee.

***Continuing Education***

Reviews of aspects of the Company's operations will be presented by appropriate executives from time to time as part of the agenda of regular Board meetings. The Board will also periodically conduct an on- site visit to the Company's operations site, so that Directors may observe and provide input on aspects of the business. It is also expected that each Director will remain well informed regarding current developments and best practices in corporate governance. In that regard, the Board considers it desirable that Directors participate in continuing education opportunities and considers such participation an appropriate expense to be reimbursed by the Company.

------

***Board Meetings***

The Board holds generally in-person or hybrid meetings on a quarterly basis and meets on an ad hoc basis as required, by means of telephone and video conferencing facilities. The Independent Directors shall also have the opportunity to meet regularly and separately from Executive Management.

***Agenda and Briefing Material***

The Chairperson of the Board (the "**Chair**") will set the agenda for the Board meetings, taking into consideration suggestions from other Directors, the Chief Executive Officer ("**CEO**") or Executive Management. The Board expects Executive Management to provide Directors with information concerning the business and affairs of the Company on a timely basis, including financial and operating information, as well as information concerning industry developments as they occur, all with a view to enable the Board to discharge its stewardship obligations effectively.

Meeting minutes are provided to the Board for review and comment prior to being approved, with approval generally obtained at the next following formal meeting of the Board.

***Meeting Attendance and Director Availability***

It is expected that each Director will make every effort to attend each Board meeting and each committee meeting on which they sit through in person or virtual attendance. Directors are expected to participate in a minimum of 75% of the Board meetings on an annual basis.

***Director Preparedness***

Each Director should be familiar with the agenda for each meeting have carefully reviewed all materials distributed in advance of the meeting, and be prepared to participate meaningfully in the meeting, and to discuss all scheduled items of business.

***Other Directorships***

Recognizing the substantial time commitment required of Directors, it is expected that Directors will serve on the boards of other companies only to the extent that, in the judgment of the Board, such services do not detract from the Directors' ability to devote the necessary time and attention to the Company. The GNCL Committee will, at least annually, review all Directors' service on the boards of other companies.

The obligations of the Board must be performed continuously, and not merely from time to time, and in times of crisis or emergency, the Board may have to assume a more direct role in managing the affairs of the Company.

***Confidentiality***

The proceedings and deliberations of the Board and its Committees are confidential. Each Director will maintain the confidentiality of information received in connection their service as a Director, including internal discussions and information on the processes of the Board and its Committees.

***In-Camera Sessions***

In-camera sessions of Independent Directors will normally be held immediately following each meeting of the full Board. There is no fixed duration for in-camera sessions. Additional in-camera sessions may be convened by any Independent Director at their discretion and any Independent Director may raise issues for discussion at an in-camera session. In-camera sessions are led by the Chair or the applicable Committee chair.

------

***Board Evaluations***

The Governance, Nomination, Compensation and Leadership Committee is responsible for overseeing and establishing processes to evaluate the effectiveness of the Board, Committees and individual Directors, along with reviewing charters. It is also responsible for reviewing: (i) the performance of individual Directors, the Board as a whole, and committees of the Board; and (ii) the performance evaluation of the Chair of each Board Committee. These assessments are conducted at least annually on an informal basis and may be performed by a third party.

Notes:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) Financial year ended December 31, 2025.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) Share-based awards consist of restricted share units ("RSUs") granted under the Incentive Plan. The amount recognized for equity-settled share-based payment arrangements is based on the estimated fair value at the grant date. For the 2025 RSUs, the fair value was determined based on the five-day volume-weighted average proce ("VWAP") of $7.73, calculated as of the day preceding the grant date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) Non-Equity Incentive Plan Compensation represents the cash performance bonuses awarded in the respective year disclosed in the table. The amount includes a discretionary special bonus awarded in recognition of leadership and execution of key strategic initiatives during the fiscal year.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4) All other compensation includes (i) RSUs granted in connection with new employment agreements; (ii) an additional 25% of the 2025 short-term incentive ("STI") bonus attributable to the executive's election to receive the bonus entirely in non-cash RSUs rather than cash; and (iii) Extended health benefits and retirement plan contributions as part of the employee benefits. For such RSUs, the fair value was determined based on the five-day volume-weighted average price ("VWAP") of 7.73, calculated as of the day preceding the grant date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(5) On January 23, 2025, the Company entered into new employment agreements with certain members of the Executive Management to ensure compliance with Swiss law, including amendments to provisions relating to termination and termination in the event of a change of control. In consideration for entering into these agreements, the affected executives were granted RSUs with an aggregate grant date fair value of $3,856,246. For such RSUs, the fair value was determined based on the five-day volume-weighted average price ("VWAP") of $2.78, calculated as of the day preceding the grant date.

In the reporting year, the highest paid individual was Sam Pigott, President and Chief Executive Officer.

Participants have the right (the "**Cashless Surrender Right**"), in lieu of the right to exercise an Option, to surrender such Option in whole or in part by notice in writing delivered by the Participant to the Company electing to exercise the Cashless Surrender Right, and, in lieu of receiving the full number of Shares (the "**Option Shares**") to which such surrendered Option (or portion thereof) relates, to receive the number of Shares, <u>(subject to the payment in cash of the par value of each such Share, to the extent applicable, and subject to satisfaction of applicable tax withholding requirements)</u> disregarding fractions, which is equal to the quotient obtained by:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) subtracting the applicable Option exercise price per Share <u>(after deducting the</u> par value paid for each Share, to the extent applicable) from the Fair Market Value per Share on the business day immediately prior to the exercise of the Cashless Surrender Right and multiplying the remainder by the number of Option Shares; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) dividing the product obtained under subsection 3.5(a) by the Fair Market Value per Share on the business day immediately prior to the exercise of the Cashless Surrender Right.

If a Participant exercises a Cashless Surrender Right in connection with an Option, it is exercisable only to the extent and on the same conditions that the related Option is exercisable under this Plan.

<u>If an Optionee exercises a Cashless Surrender Right in connection with an Option, to the extent that such Optionee would be entitled to a deduction under paragraph 110(1)(d) of the</u> <u>*Income Tax Act*</u> <u>(Canada) in respect of such exercise if the election described in subsection 110(1.1) of the</u> <u>*Income Tax Act*</u> <u>(Canada) were made and filed (and the other procedures described therein were undertaken) on a timely basis after such exercise, the Corporation will cause such election to be so made and filed (and such other procedures to be so undertaken).</u>

**3.6 Effect of Termination of Employment or Death**

If an Optionee:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) dies while employed by a Service Provider to, or while a <u>Service Provider or a</u> director of, the Company or a Designated Affiliate, any Option held by him or her at the date of death shall become exercisable in whole or in part, but only by the person or persons to whom the Optionee's rights under the Option shall pass by the Optionee's will or applicable laws of descent and distribution. Unless otherwise determined by the Board, on the recommendation of the Committee, all such Options shall be exercisable only to the extent that the Optionee was entitled to exercise the Option at the date of his or her death and only for 12 months after the date of death or prior to the expiration of the Option Period in respect thereof, whichever is sooner; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) ceases to be employed by a Service Provider to, or act as a <u>Service Provider or</u> director of, the Company or a Designated Affiliate for cause, no Option held by such Optionee will, unless otherwise determined by the Board, on the recommendation of the Committee, be exercisable following the date on which such Optionee ceases to be so engaged. If an Optionee ceases to be employed by, a Service Provider to, or act as a Service Provider or director of, the Company or a Designated Affiliate for any reason other than cause then, unless otherwise determined by the Board, on the recommendation of the Committee, any Option held by such Optionee at the effective date thereof shall become exercisable for a period of up to 12 months thereafter or prior to the expiration of the Option Period in respect thereof, whichever is sooner.

------

**3.7 Effect of Change of Control**

If a Triggering Event occurs within the 12-month period immediately following a Change of Control pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.1(m)(A), (B), (D) or (E), all outstanding Options shall vest immediately and become exercisable on the date of such Triggering Event.

In the event of a Change of Control pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.1(m)(C), all Options outstanding shall immediately vest and become exercisable on the date of such Change of Control.

The provisions of this Section 3.7 shall be subject to the terms of any employment agreement between the Participant and the Company.

**3.8 Effect of Amalgamation or Merger**

Subject to Section 3.7, if the Company amalgamates or otherwise completes a plan of arrangement or merges with or into another corporation, any Shares receivable on the exercise of an Option shall be converted into the securities, property or cash which the Participant would have received upon such amalgamation, arrangement or merger if the Participant had exercised his or her Option immediately prior to the record date applicable to such amalgamation, arrangement or merger, and the option<u>Option</u> price shall be adjusted appropriately by the Board and such adjustment shall be binding for all purposes of this Plan.

**PART 4**

**RESTRICTED SHARE RIGHTS AND PERFORMANCE SHARE UNITS**

**4.1 Participants**

The Board has the right to grant, in its sole and absolute discretion,<u>, on the recommendation of the Committee, may at any time authorize the granting</u> to any Participant, rights to receive <u>(subject to the payment in cash of the par value for each Share, to the extent applicable)</u> any number of fully paid and non-assessable Shares ("**Restricted Share Rights**" or "**Restricted Share Units**") as a discretionary payment in consideration of past services to the Company or as an incentive for future services, subject to this Plan and with such additional provisions and restrictions as the Board may determine. <u>The Board may also, by way of Board resolution, delegate to the CEO the authority to grant any of a designated number of</u> Restricted Share Rights may be <u>(such number to be specified by the Board in the aforementioned resolution) to Eligible Employees, other than Eligible Employees who are officers or directors of the Company (such Restricted Share Rights, the "</u>**<u>Delegated Restricted Share Rights</u>**<u>"). The date of grant of a Restricted Share Right shall be (i) the date such grant was approved by the Committee for recommendation to the Board, provided the Board approves such grant; or (ii) for a grant of a Restricted Share Rights not approved by the Committee for recommendation to the Board, the date such grant was approved by the Board; or (iii) in respect of Delegated Restricted Share Rights, the date such grant is made by the CEO. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board may authorize the grant of Restricted Share Rights at any time with such grant to be effective at a later date where such delayed grant is deemed appropriate, and the date of grant of such Restricted Share Rights shall then be the effective date of the grant.</u>

------

<u>Restricted Share Rights may be</u> granted subject to performance conditions and/or performance multipliers, in which case such Restricted Share Rights may be designated as "Performance Share Units".

**4.2 Restricted Share Right Grant Letter**

Each grant of a Restricted Share Right under this Plan<u>granted to a Participant</u> shall be evidenced by a grant letter or agreement<u>, in physical or electronic format (including by way of an entry in any electronic incentive compensation system maintained by the Company or a third-party service provider on its behalf)</u> (a "**Restricted Share Right Grant Letter**") issued to the Participant by the Company. Such Restricted Share Right Grant Letter shall be subject to all applicable<u>, with</u> terms and conditions of this Plan and may be subject to any other terms and conditions which are not inconsistent<u>consistent</u> with this Plan and which<u>as approved by</u> the Board, on the recommendation of the Committee, deems appropriate for inclusion in a<u>or, in respect of Delegated</u> Restricted Share Right Grant Letter. The provisions of the various Restricted Share Right Grant Letters issued under this Plan need not be identical.<u>Rights, by the CEO (and in all cases which terms and conditions need not be the same in each case and may be changed from time to time, subject to Section 7.8 of this Plan, and the approval of any material changes by the Toronto Stock Exchange or such other exchange or exchanges on which the Shares are then traded).</u>

**4.3 Restricted Period**

Concurrent with the determination to grant Restricted Share Rights to a Participant, the Board, on the recommendation of the Committee, <u>or, in the case of Delegated Restricted Share Rights, the CEO,</u> shall determine the Restricted Period and vesting requirements applicable to such Restricted Share Rights. Vesting of a Restricted Share Right shall be determined at the sole discretion of the Board<u>, on the recommendation of the Committee, or, in the case of Delegated Restricted Share Rights, the CEO,</u> at the time of grant and shall be specified in the Restricted Share Right Grant Letter. Vesting requirements may be based upon the continued employment or other service of a Participant, and/or to performance conditions to be achieved by the Company or a class of Participants or by a particular Participant on an individual basis, within a Restricted Period, for such Restricted Share Rights to entitle the holder thereof to receive the underlying Shares (and the number of underlying Shares that may be received may be subject to performance multipliers). Upon expiry of the applicable Restricted Period (or on the Deferred Payment Date, as applicable), a Restricted Share Right shall be automatically settled, and without the payment of additional consideration <u>(subject to the payment in cash of the par value for each Share, to the extent applicable)</u> or any other further action on the part of the holder of the Restricted Share Right, the underlying Shares shall be issued to the holder of such Restricted Share Rights, which Restricted Share Rights shall then be cancelled.

**4.4 Deferred Payment Date**

Participants who are residents of Canada for the purposes of the *Income Tax Act* (Canada), or who are residents of Argentina or elsewhere unless prohibited by the Board, and not, in either<u>any</u> case, a US<u>U.S.</u> Taxpayer, may elect to defer to receive all or any part of the Shares underlying Restricted Share Rights until one or more Deferred Payment Dates. Any other Participants may not elect a Deferred Payment Date.

------

**4.5 Prior Notice of Deferred Payment Date**

Participants who elect to set a Deferred Payment Date must, in respect of each such Deferred Payment Date, give the Company written notice of the Deferred Payment Date(s) not later than thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of the applicable Restricted Period. For certainty, Participants shall not be permitted to give any such notice after the day which is thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of the Restricted Period and a notice once given may not be changed or revoked. For the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing shall not prevent a Participant from electing an additional Deferred Payment Date, provided, however that notice of such election is given by the Participant to the Company not later than thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of the subject Restricted Period.

**4.6 Retirement or Termination during Restricted Period**

Subject to the terms of any employment agreement or Award agreement between the Company and the Participant, in the event and to the extent of the Retirement or Termination and/or, as applicable, the Director Retirement or Director Termination of a Participant from all such roles with the Company during the Restricted Period, any Restricted Share Rights held by the Participant shall immediately terminate and be of no further force or effect; provided, however, that the Board<u>, on recommendation of the Committee,</u> shall have the absolute discretion to modify the Restricted Share Rights, including to provide that the Restricted Period shall terminate immediately prior to the date of such occurrence or<u>, with respect to any Participants that are not U.S. Taxpayers,</u> allow the Restricted Share Rights to continue in accordance with their original Restricted Periods.

**4.7 Retirement or Termination after Restricted Period**

In the event and to the extent of the Retirement or Termination and/or, as applicable, the Director Retirement or Director Termination of the Participant from all such roles with the Company following the Restricted Period and prior to a Deferred Payment Date, the Participant shall be entitled to receive, and the Company shall issue forthwith, Shares in satisfaction of the Restricted Share Rights then held by the Participant.

**4.8 Death or Disability of Participant**

In the event of the death or total disability of a Participant, any Shares represented by Restricted Share Rights held by the Participant shall be immediately issued by the Company to the Participant or legal representative of the Participant.

**4.9 Payment of Dividends**

Subject to the absolute discretion of the Board, in the event that a dividend (other than a stock dividend) is declared and paid by the Company on the Shares, a Participant may be credited with additional Restricted Share Rights. The number of such additional Restricted Share Rights, if any, will be calculated by dividing (a) the total amount of the dividends that would have been paid to the Participant if the Restricted Share Rights (including Restricted Share Rights in which the Restricted Period has expired but the Shares have not been issued due to a Deferred Payment Date) in the Participant's account on the dividend record date had been outstanding Shares (and the Participant held no other Shares) by (b) the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the date on which such dividends were paid. If the foregoing results in a fractional Restricted Share Right, the fraction shall be disregarded. Any additional Restricted Share Rights awarded pursuant to this Section will be subject to the same terms, including the time of settlement, as the Restricted Share Rights to which they relate.

------

**4.10 Change of Control**

If a Triggering Event occurs within the 12-month period immediately following a Change of Control pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.1(m)(A), (B), (D) or (E), all outstanding Restricted Share Right Rights shall vest immediately and be settled by the issuance of Shares notwithstanding the Restricted Period and any Deferred Payment Date.

In the event of a Change of Control pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.1(m)(C), all Restricted Shares Rights outstanding shall immediately vest and be settled by the issuance of Shares notwithstanding the Restricted Period and any Deferred Payment Date.

Notwithstanding any provision of this Plan, in the event of a Change of Control, all Arrangement Restricted Share Rights outstanding held by Arrangement Departing Participants shall vest immediately and be settled by the issuance of Shares notwithstanding the Restricted Period and any Deferred Payment Date.

The provisions of this Section 4.10 shall be subject to the terms of any employment agreement between the Participant and the Company.

**4.11 Settlement Basis for Performance Share Units**

In respect of Performance Share Units that are accelerated as a result of a Change of Control or the total disability or death of a Participant, unless the Board determines otherwise and subject to any employment agreement or Award agreement between the Company and the Participant, (i) in respect of any performance measurement periods that are completed on or prior to the Change of Control, total disability or death of a Participant, the proportion of Performance Share Units equivalent to the performance measurement periods completed shall be settled by applying a performance multiplier calculated based on the actual performance in respect to such completed periods, and (ii) in respect of any performance measurement periods that are not completed on or prior to the Change of Control, total disability or death of a Participant, the equivalent proportion of Performance Share Units in respect to such periods shall be settled by applying a performance multiplier of one Share for each Performance Share Unit.

**PART 5**

**DEFERRED SHARE UNITS**

**5.1 Deferred Share Unit Grants**

The Board may from time to time determine to grant Deferred Share Units to one or more Eligible Directors in a lump sum amount or on regular intervals, based on such formulas or criteria as the Board may from time to time determine. Deferred Share Units will be credited to the Eligible Director's account when designated by the Board.

**5.2 Deferred Share Unit Grant Letter**

Each grant of a Deferred Share Unit under this Plan shall be evidenced by a grant letter or agreement<u>, in physical or electronic format (including by way of an entry in any electronic incentive compensation system maintained by the Company or a third-party service provider on its behalf)</u> (a "**Deferred Share Unit Grant Letter**") issued to the Eligible Director by the Company. Such Deferred Share Unit Grant Letter shall be subject to all applicable terms and conditions of this Plan and may be subject to any other terms and conditions which are not inconsistent with this Plan and which the Board deems appropriate for inclusion in a Deferred Share Unit Grant Letter. The provisions of Deferred Share Unit Grant Letters issued under this Plan need not be identical.

------

**5.3 Redemption of Deferred Share Units and Issuance of Deferred Shares**

The Deferred Share Units held by each Eligible Director who is not a US Taxpayer shall be redeemed automatically and with no further action by the Eligible Director on the 20th business day following the Separation Date for that Eligible Director. For US Taxpayers, Deferred Share Units held by an Eligible Director who is a Specified Employee will be automatically redeemed with no further action by the Eligible Director on the date that is six (6) months following the Separation Date for the Eligible Director, or if earlier, upon such Eligible Director's death<u>, subject to Section 7.10, if applicable</u>. Upon redemption, the former Eligible Director shall be entitled to receive and the Company shall issue, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 7.1 of this Plan, the number of Shares issued from treasury<u>out of the Company's conditional share capital for equity incentive plans</u> equal to the number of Deferred Share Units in the Eligible Director's account, subject to any applicable deductions and withholdings. In the event a Separation Date occurs during a year and Deferred Share Units have been granted to such Eligible Director for that entire year, the Eligible Director will only be entitled to a pro-rated Deferred Share Unit Payment in respect of such Deferred Share Units based on the number of days that he or she was an Eligible Director in such year.

No amount will be paid to, or in respect of, an Eligible Director under this Plan or pursuant to any other arrangement, and no other additional Deferred Share Units will be granted to compensate for a downward fluctuation in the value of the Shares of the Company nor will any other benefit be conferred upon, or in respect of, an Eligible Director for such purpose.

<u>Any issuance of Shares in settlement of Deferred Share Units shall be subject to the payment in cash of the par value for each Share to the extent applicable.</u>

**5.4 Death of Participant**

In the event of the death of an Eligible Director, the Deferred Share Units shall be redeemed automatically and with no further action on the 20th business day following the death of an Eligible Director.

**5.5 Payment of Dividends**

Subject to the absolute discretion of the Board, in the event that a dividend (other than a stock dividend) is declared and paid by the Company on the Shares, an Eligible Director may be credited with additional Deferred Share Units. The number of such additional Deferred Share Units, if any, will be calculated by dividing (a) the total amount of the dividends that would have been paid to the Eligible Director if the Deferred Share Units in the Eligible Director's account on the dividend record date had been outstanding Shares (and the Eligible Director held no other Shares), by (b) the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the date on which such dividends were paid. If the foregoing results in a fractional Deferred Share Unit, the fraction shall be disregarded. Any additional Deferred Share Units awarded pursuant to this Section will be subject to the same terms, including the time of settlement, as the Deferred Share Units to which they relate.

**PART 6**

**<u>SOCIAL SECURITY AND</u>** **WITHHOLDING TAXES**

**6.1 Withholding Taxes**

The Company or any Designated Affiliate may take such steps as are considered necessary or appropriate for the withholding of any <u>social security contributions, payroll withholding taxes, or other</u> taxes or other amounts which the Company or any Designated Affiliate is required by any law or regulation of any governmental authority whatsoever to withhold in connection with any Award including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the withholding of all or any portion of any payment or the withholding of the issue of any Shares to be issued under this Plan, until such time as the Participant has paid the Company or any Designated Affiliate for any amount which the Company or Designated Affiliate is required to withhold by law with respect to such taxes or other amounts. Without limitation to the foregoing, the Board may adopt administrative rules under this Plan, which provide for the automatic sale of Shares (or a portion thereof) in the market upon the issuance of such Shares under this Plan on behalf of the Participant to satisfy withholding obligations under an Award.

------

**PART 7**

**GENERAL**

**7.1 Number of Shares**

The aggregate number of Shares that may be issued under this Plan (together with any other securities-based compensation arrangements of the Company in effect from time to time) shall not exceed 8<u>10</u>% of the outstanding issue (as defined below) from time to time, such Shares to be allocated among Awards and Participants in amounts and at such times as may be determined by the Board from time to time. In addition, the aggregate number of Shares that may be issued and issuable under this Plan (when combined with all of the Company's other security-based compensation arrangements, as applicable),

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) to Insiders shall not exceed 10% of the Company's outstanding issue from time to time;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) to Insiders within any one-year period shall not exceed 10% of the Company's outstanding issue from time to time; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) to any one Insider and his or her associates or Affiliates within any one-year period shall not exceed 5% of the Company's outstanding issue from time to time.

In no event will the number of Shares that may be issued to any one Participant pursuant to Awards under this Plan (when combined with all of the Company's other security-based compensation arrangement<u>arrangements</u>, as applicable) exceed 5% of the Company's outstanding issue from time to time.

The aggregate number of Options that may be granted under this Plan to any one non-employee director of the Company within any one-year period shall not exceed a maximum value of US$100,000 worth of securities, and together with any Restricted Share Rights and Deferred Share Units granted under this Plan and any securities granted under all other securities-based compensation arrangements, such aggregate value shall not exceed US$150,000 in any one-year period. The calculation of this limitation shall not include however: (i) the initial securities granted under securities-based compensation arrangements to a person who was not previously a director of the Company, upon such person becoming or agreeing to become a director of the Company; (ii) the securities granted under securities-based compensation arrangements to a person who was a director of the Company immediately prior to Arrangement Effective Time and who continued to be a director of the Company following the Arrangement Effective Time; (iii) the securities granted under securities-based compensation arrangements to a director of the Company who was also an officer of the Company at the time of grant but who subsequently became a non-employee director; and (iv) any securities granted to a non-employee director that is granted in lieu of any director cash fee provided the value of the security awarded has the same value as the cash fee given up in exchange for such security. For greater clarity, in this Plan, securities-based compensation arrangements include securities issued under this Plan and any other compensation arrangements implemented by the Company including stock options, other stock option plans, employee stock purchase plans, stock appreciation right plans, deferred share unit plans, performance share unit plans, restricted share unit plans or any other compensation or incentive mechanism involving the issuance or potential issuance of Shares from treasury, but excludes any compensation arrangement that does not involve the issuance of Shares from treasury and any other compensation arrangements assumed or inherited by the Company in connection with the acquisition of another entity.

------

For the purposes of this Section 7.1, "outstanding issue" means the total number of Shares, on a non-diluted basis, that are issued and outstanding immediately prior to the date that any Shares are issued or reserved for issuance pursuant to an Award.

For greater certainty, any increase in the issued and outstanding Shares will result in an increase in the available number of Shares issuable under the Plan, and the exercise or settlement of Awards will make new grants available under the Plan<u>, subject to article 5 (conditional share capital for equity incentive plans) in the articles of association of the Company</u>.

For greater clarity, the issuance of Arrangement Restricted Share Rights and Arrangement Deferred Share Units shall not be treated as a new grant of Restricted Share Rights and Deferred Share Units, respectively.

**7.2 Lapsed Awards**

If Awards are surrendered, terminated or expire without being exercised in whole or in part, new Awards may be granted covering the Shares not issued under such lapsed Awards, subject to any restrictions that may be imposed by the Toronto Stock Exchange.

**7.3 Adjustment in Shares Subject to this Plan**

If there is any change in the Shares through the declaration of stock dividends of Shares, through any consolidations, subdivisions or reclassification of Shares, or otherwise, the number of Shares available under this Plan, the Shares subject to any Award, and the exercise price of any Option shall be adjusted as determined to be appropriate by the Board, and such adjustment shall be effective and binding for all purposes of this Plan.

**7.4 Transferability**

Any Awards accruing to any Participant in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Plan shall not be transferable unless specifically provided herein. During the lifetime of a Participant all Awards may only be exercised by the Participant. Awards are non-transferable except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution.

**7.5 Employment**

Nothing contained in this Plan shall confer upon any Participant any right with respect to employment or continuance of employment with the Company or any Affiliate, or interfere in any way with the right of the Company or any Affiliate to terminate the Participant's employment at any time. Participation in this Plan by a Participant is voluntary.

------

**7.6 Record Keeping**

The Company <u>(in physical or electronic format (including by way of an electronic incentive compensation system maintained by the Company or a</u> <u>third-party</u> <u>service provider on its behalf))</u> shall maintain a register in which shall be recorded:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) the name and address of each Participant;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) the number of Awards granted to each Participant and relevant details regarding such Awards; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) such other information as the Board may determine.

**7.7 Necessary Approvals**

This second<u>third</u> amended and restated equity incentive plan of the Company continues to be in effect. The amendments adopted by the Board on May 15<u>1</u>, 2023<u>2026</u> shall become effective on such date, except for: (i) Part 9 which shall become effective on the Arrangement Effective Date as contemplated in the Plan of Arrangement: (ii) the two sets of amendments adopted by the Board on December 3, 2023, which shall become effective on such date; and (iii) the amendments adopted by the Board on May 10, 2024, subject in all cases to the approval of (a) the Toronto Stock Exchange and (b) the New York Stock Exchange, if applicable.

**7.8 Amendments to Plan**

The Board shall have the power to, at any time and from time to time, either prospectively or retrospectively, amend, suspend or terminate this Plan or any Award granted under this Plan without shareholder approval, including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing: changes of a clerical or grammatical nature, changes regarding the persons eligible to participate in this Plan, changes to the exercise price, vesting, term and termination provisions of the Award, changes to the Cashless Surrender Right provisions, changes to the authority and role of the Board under this Plan, and any other matter relating to this Plan and the Awards that may be granted hereunder, provided however that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) such amendment, suspension or termination is in accordance with <u>the articles of</u> association of the Company, applicable laws and the rules of any stock exchange on which the Shares are listed;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) no amendment to this Plan or to an Award granted hereunder will have the effect of impairing, derogating from or otherwise adversely affecting the terms of an Award which is outstanding at the time of such amendment without the written consent of the holder of such Award;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) the expiry date of an Option Period in respect of an Option shall not be more than ten (10) years from the date of grant of an Option except as expressly provided in Section 3.4;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) the Directors shall obtain shareholder approval of:

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) any amendment to the number of Shares specified in Section 7.1;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) any amendment to the limitations on Shares that may be reserved for issuance, or issued, to Insiders, or remove participation limits on non-employee directors or increase the amounts of participation limits on non-employee directors;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) any amendment that would reduce the exercise price of an outstanding Option other than pursuant to Section 7.3 or permits the cancellation and re-issuance of Options;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) any amendment that would extend the expiry date of the Option Period in respect of any Option granted under this Plan except as expressly contemplated in Section 3.4;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) any amendment to permit Options to be transferred other than for normal estate settlement purposes; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vi) any amendment to reduce the range of amendments requiring shareholder approval contemplated in this Section.

If this Plan is terminated, the provisions of this Plan and any administrative guidelines and other rules and regulations adopted by the Board and in force on the date of termination will continue in effect as long as any Award or any rights pursuant thereto remain outstanding and, notwithstanding the termination of this Plan, the Board shall remain able to make such amendments to this Plan or the Award as they would have been entitled to make if this Plan were still in effect.

**7.9 No Representation or Warranty**

The Company makes no representation or warranty as to the future market value of any Shares issued in accordance with the provisions of this Plan.

**7.10 Section 409A**

It is intended that any payments under the Plan to US<u>U.S.</u> Taxpayers shall be exempt from or comply with Section 409A of the Code, and all provisions of the Plan shall be construed and interpreted in a manner consistent with the requirements for avoiding taxes and penalties under Section 409A of the Code.<u>. If any amount of an Award subject to Section 409A is payable upon a Separation from Service to a Participant who is considered a Specified Employee, then no such payment shall be made prior to the date that is the earlier of (i) six months and one day after the Participant's Separation from Service, or (ii) the Participant's death, but only to the extent such delay is necessary to prevent such payment from being subject to interest, penalties and/or additional tax imposed pursuant to Section 409A.</u>

**7.11 Compliance with Applicable Law, etc.**

If any provision of this Plan or any agreement entered into pursuant to this Plan contravenes any law or any order, policy, by-law or regulation of any regulatory body or stock exchange having authority over the Company or this Plan, then such provision shall be deemed to be amended to the extent required to bring such provision into compliance therewith.

------

All Awards and securities which may be acquired pursuant to the exercise of the Awards to be issued pursuant to the Plan will be issued pursuant to the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act and applicable state securities laws or an exemption or exclusion from such registration requirements.

**7.12 Clawback and Recoupment**

All Awards under this Plan shall be subject to forfeiture or other penalties pursuant to any Company clawback policy, as may be adopted or amended from time to time, and such forfeiture and/or penalty conditions or provisions as determined by the Committee.

**<u>7.13</u>** **<u>Limitations on Grants under Swiss Law</u>**

<u>Grants of Awards to directors of the Company and grants of Awards to officers of the Company who are designated by the Board as members of the Company's "executive management" in accordance with Swiss law, shall be subject to the aggregate amount of compensation to be paid to the directors or to executive management, as applicable, in respect of which such grants relate, having been approved by shareholders of the Company as required by the applicable Swiss law requirements with respect to say-on pay. Any Awards granted without the foregoing shareholder approval shall be null and void.</u>

**<u>7.14</u>** **7.13** **Term of the Plan**

This Plan shall remain in effect until it is terminated by the Board.

**PART 8**
