![](smlogo.jpg)

Dear fellow shareholder,

On behalf of the Board of Directors (the "**Board**") of Centerra Gold Inc. ("**Centerra**" or the "**Company**"), it is my pleasure to invite you to attend our annual meeting of shareholders to be held on May 5, 2026, at 11:00 a.m. (Toronto time) (the "**Meeting**") to address the items of business described in the Notice of Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the "**Notice of Meeting**") and management information circular (the "**Circular**") accompanying this letter. The Meeting will be held in a virtual format via a live audio webcast. For information on how to access the webcast, please refer to the Notice of Meeting.

In the accompanying Circular, you will find important information and instructions on how to participate and vote at the Meeting, either online or by proxy. Please exercise your rights as a shareholder either by attending and voting at the Meeting online, or by completing and returning your form of proxy or voting instruction form in advance of the Meeting.

Looking ahead, we remained focused on optimizing our operations, advancing our self-funded growth, and delivering sustainable value for shareholders.

I thank you for your continuing interest in Centerra.

**NOTICE OF ANNUAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS**

Dear Shareholder:

**NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN THAT** the annual meeting of the shareholders (the "**Meeting**") of Centerra Gold Inc. ("**Centerra**" or the "**Company**") will be held on May 5, 2026 at 11:00 a.m. (Toronto time) in order for shareholders of Centerra to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1. receive the audited financial statements for the year ended December
31, 2025 and the auditors' report thereon;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2. elect directors of Centerra for the ensuing year;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3. re-appoint auditors for the ensuing year and authorize the directors to fix the remuneration to be paid to the auditors;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4. consider, and if deemed advisable, approve, a non-binding advisory resolution to accept Centerra's approach to executive compensation;
and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5. transact such other business as may properly come before the Meeting, or any postponement or adjournment thereof.

Similar to last year, to permit a greater number of shareholders to attend the Meeting, Centerra will hold the Meeting in a virtual only format, which will be conducted via live audio webcast at <u>www.meetings.lumiconnect.com/400-905-228-434</u>. At this website, shareholders will have an equal opportunity to attend, participate fully in the Meeting in real time as if it were held in-person and vote their common shares of Centerra accordingly at the Meeting, regardless of geographic location. Shareholders will not be able to physically attend the Meeting.

Registered shareholders and duly appointed proxyholders will be able to attend, participate and vote at the Meeting online. Non-registered shareholders (being shareholders who beneficially own common shares of Centerra that are registered in the name of an intermediary such as a bank, trust company, securities broker or other nominee, or in the name of a depository of which the intermediary is a participant) who have not duly appointed themselves as proxyholder will be able to attend the Meeting online as guests, but guests will not be able to vote or ask questions at the Meeting.

A Centerra shareholder who wishes to appoint a person other than the Centerra proxyholders identified on the form of proxy or voting instruction form accompanying this notice (including a non-registered shareholder who wishes to appoint themselves as proxyholder in order to attend and vote at the Meeting online) must carefully follow the instructions in the management information circular and on their form of proxy or voting instruction form accompanying this notice. These instructions include the additional step of registering such proxyholder with our transfer agent, TSX Trust Company ("**TSX Trust**"), after submitting a form of proxy or voting instruction form. Failure to register will result in the proxyholder not receiving a control number, which is used as their online sign-in credentials and is required for them to vote at the Meeting. Without a control number, such proxyholder will only be able to attend the Meeting online as a guest. Non-registered shareholders located in the United States must also provide TSX Trust with a duly completed legal proxy if they wish to vote at the Meeting or appoint a third party as their proxyholder.

The Board of Directors of Centerra has fixed the close of business on March 18, 2026 as the record date to determine which shareholders are entitled to receive notice of and to vote at the Meeting, or any postponement or adjournment thereof.

This year, Centerra is using "notice-and-access" to deliver meeting materials to shareholders. Accordingly, this Notice of Meeting and the accompanying management information circular and our audited annual financial statements for the financial year ended December 31, 2025, along with the related management discussion and analysis, can be viewed online on the Company's website at <u>www.centerragold.com</u>, under the Company's profile on SEDAR+ at <u>www.sedarplus.ca</u>, or at <u>www.docs.tsxtrust.com/CG</u>. Under notice-and-access, Centerra shareholders of record, as of the close of business on March 18, 2026, will receive a notice-and-access notification containing information about how to access these documents electronically, together with a proxy form or voting instruction form enabling Centerra shareholders to vote at the Meeting. The notice-and-access notification will also provide instructions on how to vote at the Meeting and on how to receive paper copies of the meeting materials.

**SOLICITATION OF PROXIES AND VOTING INSTRUCTIONS**

This management information circular (the "**Circular**") is furnished in connection with the solicitation of proxies by the management of Centerra Gold Inc. ("**Centerra**" or the "**Company**") for use at the annual general meeting of shareholders of the Company to be held on May 5, 2026 at 11:00 a.m. (Toronto time) or any adjournment or postponement thereof (the "**Meeting**"), for the purposes set forth in the accompanying notice of meeting.

**The Meeting will be held in a virtual only format, which will be conducted via live audio webcast at <u>www.meetings.lumiconnect.com/400-905-228-434</u>. Shareholders will not be able to physically attend the Meeting. For a summary of how shareholders may attend, participate in and vote at the Meeting online, see "Attending and Voting at the Virtual Meeting" below.** 

The information contained in this Circular is given as at March 4, 2026 and all dollar amounts are in Canadian dollars, in each case, except where otherwise noted. All times are Toronto time unless otherwise stated.

**Voting Information**

You are entitled to vote at the Meeting if you were a holder of common shares of Centerra ("**Shares**") at the close of business on March 18, 2026, the record date for the Meeting. Each Share is entitled to one (1) vote. How you vote depends on whether you are a registered shareholder or a non-registered shareholder.

**Notice-and-Access**

This year, as permitted by Canadian securities regulatory authorities and pursuant to exemptions from the sending of financial statements and proxy solicitation requirements granted by the Director of Corporations Canada, Centerra is using "notice-and-access" to deliver the meeting materials, including the Circular and Centerra's 2025 Annual Report, which includes the Company's management's discussion and analysis and annual audited consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 (collectively, the "**Meeting Materials**"), to both registered and non-registered shareholders. This means that the Meeting Materials are posted online for shareholders to access, instead of paper copies being printed and mailed to shareholders. One core benefit of the notice-and-access procedures is that it reduces the environmental impact of producing and distributing paper copies of documents in large quantities.

Under notice-and-access, shareholders will receive (unless shareholders have chosen to receive proxy meeting materials electronically) a package by mail that will include a form of proxy or voting instruction form, depending on whether they are a registered or a non-registered shareholder, along with a notice containing instructions on how to vote at the Meeting and how to access the Meeting Materials electronically. Centerra is not using stratification to deliver the Meeting Materials to any shareholders.

The Meeting Materials can be viewed online at <u>www.docs.tsxtrust.com/CG</u>, on the Company's website at <u>www.centerragold.com</u>, or under the Company's profile on SEDAR+ at <u>www.sedarplus.ca</u>.

As further described in the notice-and-access notice, you may obtain paper copies of the Meeting Materials at no cost to you for up to one year from the date that this Circular was filed on SEDAR+ by contacting our transfer agent, TSX Trust Company ("**TSX Trust**"), via their email at tsxt-fulfilment@tmx.com or by phone at 1-888-433-6443 (toll-free within Canada and the U.S.) or 416-682-3801 (outside Canada and the U.S.). If you would like to receive the Meeting Materials in advance of the voting deadline and Meeting date, requests should be received by April 21, 2026.

**If you request a paper copy of the Meeting Materials, you will not receive a new form of proxy or voting instruction form. Therefore, you should keep the original form sent to you in order to vote your Shares at the Meeting.**

**How to Vote in Advance of the Meeting as a Registered Shareholder**

You are a registered shareholder if your name appears on a share certificate or if your Shares are otherwise registered in your name. As a registered shareholder, you may attend, participate and vote at the virtual only Meeting via live audio webcast online at <u>www.meetings.lumiconnect.com/400-905-228-434</u>. See "Attending and Voting at the Virtual Meeting" below.

If you are a registered shareholder and will not attend the Meeting, or if your Shares are registered in the name of a company that you own, your Shares may still be counted by authorizing an individual, called a proxyholder, to attend the Meeting and vote your Shares. Any legal form of proxy may be used, and a form of proxy will be mailed by the Company to registered shareholders along with the notice-and-access notice described above.

Registered Shareholders may vote in advance of the Meeting by proxy:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Online:** by accessing and following the instructions provided at <u>http://www.meeting-vote.com/</u> 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **By email:** by sending a completed form of proxy to <u>proxyvote@tmx.com</u> 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **By telephone:** By calling 1-888-489-7352

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **By fax:** fax your completed form of proxy to (416) 607-7964

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **By mail:** mail your completed form of proxy to our transfer agent, TSX Trust by at Attn Proxy Dept., P.O. Box
721, Agincourt, Ontario, Canada, M1S 0A1

To vote in advance of the Meeting, your vote must be received no later than 11:00 a.m. on May 1, 2026 or if the Meeting is postponed or adjourned, on a day other than a Saturday, Sunday or a statutory holiday in the Province of Ontario which is at least 48 hours before the time of such reconvened or convened meeting, as applicable. Late proxies may be accepted or rejected by the Chair of the Meeting in his or her sole discretion; the Chair of the Meeting is under no obligation to accept or reject a late proxy. The Chair of the Meeting may extend or waive the proxy cut-off time in his or her sole discretion and without notice.

**How to Vote in Advance of the Meeting as a Non-Registered Shareholder**

You are a non-registered shareholder if you beneficially own Shares that are registered in the name of an intermediary such as a bank, trust company, securities broker or other nominee, or in the name of a depository of which the intermediary is a participant, and therefore do not have Shares registered in your own name.

Your intermediary must ask for your voting instructions before the meeting. Please contact them if you did not receive a request for these with the Notice-and-Access Letter. Your intermediary must receive your voting instructions with sufficient time for your vote to be processed by May 1, 2026 at 11:00 a.m., or if the Meeting is postponed or adjourned, on a day other than a Saturday, Sunday or a statutory holiday in Ontario which is at least 24 hours before the time of such reconvened Meeting.

Non-registered shareholders may vote in advance of the Meeting by following the instructions provided on the voting instruction form provided by your intermediary.

The Company does not send proxy-related materials directly to non-registered shareholders. Typically, intermediaries will use a service company (such as Broadridge Investor Communications) to forward such proxy-related materials to non-registered shareholders. The Company has elected to pay for all applicable proxy-related materials to be sent to non-registered shareholders at the Company's cost.

See "Attending and Voting at the Virtual Meeting" below.

**Voting by Proxy**

**How to Vote by Proxy**

The individuals named in the voting instruction form or the form of proxy you received are representatives of management of the Company. **You have the right to appoint another person (who need not be a shareholder) to represent you at the Meeting. You may appoint another person by inserting that person's name in the blank space set out in the form of proxy provided or by completing another proper form of proxy.** See "How to Appoint a Proxy" below.

By properly completing and returning a voting instruction form or form of proxy, you are authorizing the individual named in the form to attend the Meeting virtually and to vote your Shares. To be valid, proxies must be deposited with our transfer agent, TSX Trust by mail to: Attn Proxy Dept., P.O. Box 721, Agincourt, Ontario, Canada, M1S 0A1; by telephone (toll free) to: 1-888-489-7352; by fax to: (416) 607-7964; or by e-mail to: <u>proxyvote@tmx.com</u>, or vote online at <u>http://www.meeting-vote.com/</u>, in each case no later than 11:00 a.m. on May 1, 2026 or if the Meeting is postponed or adjourned, on a day other than a Saturday, Sunday or a statutory holiday in the Province of Ontario which is at least 48 hours before the time of such reconvened or convened meeting, as applicable. Late proxies may be accepted or rejected by the Chair of the Meeting in his or her sole discretion; the Chair of the Meeting is under no obligation to accept or reject a late proxy. The Chair of the Meeting may extend or waive the proxy cut-off time in his or her sole discretion and without notice.

**Exercise of Discretion by Proxies**

The Shares represented by your voting instruction form or form of proxy must be voted or withheld from voting in accordance with your instruction on the form and if you specify a choice with respect to any matter to be acted upon, your Shares will be voted accordingly. If you have not specified how to vote on a particular matter, if any amendments are proposed to any matter, or if other matters are properly brought before the Meeting, then, in each case, your proxyholder can vote your Shares as your proxyholder sees fit.

**If you properly complete and return your voting instruction form or form of proxy appointing representatives of management of the Company as your proxy, but do not specify how you wish the votes to be cast, your Shares will be voted: (i) FOR the election of directors nominated by management; (ii) FOR the appointment of KPMG LLP as the** 

**independent auditor for 2026 and the authorization of the directors to fix their remuneration; (iii) FOR the non-binding advisory resolution to accept Centerra's approach to executive compensation; and (iv) at the discretion of management, on any matter which may properly come before the Meeting.**

**Revoking your Proxy**

If you are a registered shareholder and have provided a proxy, you may revoke your proxy by: (i) completing and signing another form of proxy bearing a later date and depositing it with TSX Trust: by mail to: Attn: Proxy Dept., P.O. Box 721, Agincourt, Ontario, Canada, M1S 0A1; by telephone (toll free) to: 1-888-489-7352; by fax to: (416) 607-7964; or by e-mail to: <u>proxyvote@tmx.com</u>; or vote online at <u>www.meetings.lumiconnect.com/400-905-228-434</u>, in each case no later than 11:00 a.m. on May 1, 2026 or, if the Meeting is postponed or adjourned, on a day other than a Saturday, Sunday or a statutory holiday in the Province of Ontario which is at least 48 hours before the time of such reconvened or convened meeting, as applicable; (ii) depositing a document that is signed by you (or by someone you have properly authorized to act on your behalf) stating that you wish to revoke your proxy, to the Corporate Secretary of the Company at the registered office of the Company (1 University Avenue, Suite 1800, Toronto, Ontario, Canada, M5J 2P1) at any time up to and including the last business day preceding the day of the Meeting, or any postponement or adjournment thereof; (iii) notifying the Chair of the Meeting prior to the commencement of the Meeting or any postponement or adjournment of the Meeting that you have revoked your proxy; or (iv) following any other procedure that is permitted by law.

If you are a registered shareholder or a duly appointed proxyholder and log in to the Meeting online using your control number and accept the terms and conditions, you will be revoking any and all previously submitted proxies and will be provided the opportunity to vote online by ballot. See "Attending and Voting at the Virtual Meeting" below.

If you are a non-registered shareholder and wish to revoke or change your prior instructions, you must contact your intermediary well in advance of the Meeting and follow its instructions. Intermediaries may set deadlines for the receipt of revocations that are further in advance of the Meeting than those set forth elsewhere in this Circular and related proxy materials and, accordingly, any such revocation should be completed in coordination with your Intermediary well in advance of the deadline for submitting forms of proxy or voting instruction forms to ensure it can be given effect to at the Meeting.

**Attending and Voting at the Virtual Meeting**

Similar to last year, and to permit a greater number of shareholders to attend the Meeting, we will hold our Meeting in a virtual only format, which will be conducted via a live audio webcast. Registered shareholders and duly appointed proxyholders will have an equal opportunity to attend, participate and vote at the Meeting online. We hope that hosting a virtual Meeting will increase participation by our shareholders, as it will enable shareholders to more easily attend the Meeting regardless of their geographic location. Shareholders will not be able to physically attend the Meeting.

**How to Vote at the Meeting**

Registered shareholders and duly appointed proxyholders can vote online by ballot at the appropriate times during the Meeting. The control number located on the proxy form or in the email notification you received is your control number for purposes of logging in to the Meeting online.

If the Company cannot answer a question during the Meeting because of timing or technical limitations, management will endeavor to respond by email as soon as practical after the Meeting.

**How to Appoint a Proxy**

The following applies to shareholders who wish to appoint someone as their proxyholder other than the Centerra proxyholders named in the enclosed form of proxy or voting instruction form accompanying this Circular. This includes non-registered shareholders who wish to appoint themselves as proxyholder to attend, participate and vote at the Meeting online.

**Step 1 - Submit your form of proxy or voting instruction form**: To appoint someone as proxyholder other than the Centerra proxyholders, insert that person's name in the blank space provided in the form of proxy or voting instruction form (if permitted) and follow the instructions for submitting such form of proxy or voting instruction form. This must be completed before registering the proxyholder, which is an additional step completed once you have submitted your form of proxy or voting instruction form.

**Step 2 - Register your proxyholder**: To register a third-party proxyholder, shareholders must contact TSX Trust and provide TSX Trust with the required proxyholder contact information so that TSX Trust may provide the proxyholder with a control number. TSX Trust can be contacted by phone at 1-866-751-6315 (toll-free within North America) or 416-682-3860 or by internet at <u>https://www.tsxtrust.com/control-number-request</u>. Requests for a control number must be received by 11:00 a.m. on May 1, 2026. Without a control number, proxyholders will not be able to ask questions or vote at the Meeting. They will only be able to attend the virtual Meeting online as a guest.

**If you are a non-registered shareholder and wish to vote at the Meeting, you must insert your own name in the blank space provided on the voting instruction form sent to you by your intermediary, follow the applicable instructions provided by your intermediary, <u>AND</u> register yourself as your proxyholder, as described below**. By doing so, you are instructing your intermediary to appoint you as proxyholder. It is important that you comply with the signature and return instructions provided by your intermediary.

**If you are a non-registered shareholder located in the United States and wish to vote at the Meeting, or, if you are permitted, to appoint a third party as your proxyholder, in addition to the steps described above under "How to Access the Virtual Meeting Platform", you must first obtain a valid legal proxy from your intermediary**. You must follow the instructions from your intermediary which are included with the legal proxy form or the voting information form sent to you with this Circular. If you have not received one, you must contact your intermediary to request a legal proxy form or a legal proxy. After obtaining a valid legal proxy from your intermediary, you must then submit such legal proxy to the Company's transfer agent, TSX Trust by mail at Attn: Proxy Dept., P.O. Box 721, Agincourt, Ontario, Canada, M1S 0A1, or by email to <u>proxyvote@tmx.com</u>. The request for registration must be labeled "Legal Proxy" and received by TSX Trust no later than the voting deadline of 11:00 a.m. on May 1, 2026 or, if the Meeting is postponed or adjourned, on a day other than a Saturday, Sunday or a statutory holiday in the Province of Ontario which is at least 48 hours before the time of such reconvened or convened meeting, as applicable.

The directors have fixed March 18, 2026 as the record date for the Meeting.

The audited financial statements of Centerra for the period ended December 31, 2025 and the auditors' report thereon will be placed before the Meeting.

**Election of Directors**

The Board of Directors (the "**Board**") has approved the nomination of the individuals named below for election as directors of Centerra. Each of the nominees, other than Mr. Kitlen, is a current director of Centerra and has been since the dates indicated below and was elected to his or her present term as a director by the shareholders of the Company at the annual general meeting of the Company's shareholders held on May 6, 2025.

Management does not believe that any of the proposed nominees will be unable to serve as a director, but if that should occur for any reason before the Meeting, the management representatives designated in the enclosed form of proxy reserve the right to nominate and vote for another nominee at their discretion, unless otherwise instructed. **The form of proxy permits shareholders to vote for or against each nominee**. Each director elected will hold office until the next annual meeting of shareholders or until his or her successor is elected or appointed.

**Majority Voting and Advance Notice Nominations**

In accordance with the *Canada Business Corporations Act* (the "**CBCA**"), at uncontested shareholder meetings, any director nominee receiving more "against" votes than "for" votes will not be elected. However, under the CBCA majority voting rules, if an incumbent director is not elected by a majority of votes at the Meeting, the incumbent director will be permitted to continue in office until the earlier of (i) the 90<sup>th</sup> day after the Meeting, or (ii) the day on which their successor is appointed or elected.

In addition, in order to ensure that all shareholders have sufficient time and information to properly review all director nominees, the Company's by-laws require that all director nominations be made with sufficient notice and provide certain prescribed information concerning such director nominees. For further information, please refer to "Report on Corporate Governance – Statutory Majority Voting and Advance Notice Nominations" on page 46.

**Board Nominee Information**

According to the Company's constating documents, the Board shall have between 3 and 15 directors.

The Company considers skills, age, culture geography experience, diversity of background and gender when reviewing potential director candidates, and the directors nominated this year represent a strong and diverse mix of experience in finance, mining, engineering, sustainability, government relations, Indigenous relations, risk management, legal, human resources metallurgy, mergers and acquisitions, and international business – key skills for overseeing the Company's affairs and guiding its strategic growth. See also "Directors and Executive Officers Diversity, Equity & Inclusion" on page **50**.

The following tables set out the name and biographical information of each nominee, including present principal occupations and directorships during the past five years and whether or not the nominee has been determined by the Board to be independent of Centerra under Canadian securities laws. The table below also sets out each nominee's tenure on Centerra's Board, attendance at Board and standing Committee meetings during 2025, other public company directorships, and minimum ownership requirement. All nominees are in compliance with their minimum ownership requirements. For further information on the breakdown of the Directors' Share ownership, see "Report on Director Compensation – Share Ownership of Directors" on page 35.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4. $953,910 of the audit fees billed
by our external auditor in 2025 relate to work completed during the 2024 fiscal year which relate primarily to the impact of the additional
agreement entered into with RGLD Gold AG and Royal Gold Inc. on February 13, 2024, relating to Mount Milligan.

**The Board recommends that shareholders vote in favour of the re-appointment of KPMG LLP as auditor of the Company, to hold office until the next annual meeting of shareholders, and the authorization of the Board to fix their remuneration**. Unless otherwise instructed, the management representatives designated in the enclosed form of proxy intend to vote FOR the re-appointment of KPMG LLP as auditor of the Company, to hold office until the next annual meeting of shareholders, and to authorize the Board to fix their remuneration.

**Advisory Vote on Executive Compensation**

The Board believes that the Company's compensation program must be competitive with companies in its peer group, provide a strong incentive to its executives to achieve Centerra's business and financial objectives and ensure that interests of management are aligned with the short and long-term interests of the Company's shareholders. Centerra believes that its compensation program is consistent with those objectives and are in the best interest of shareholders. A detailed discussion of the Company's executive compensation program is provided under ''Compensation Discussion and Analysis'' starting on page **14** of this Circular.

The Board has resolved to provide shareholders with a ''Say on Pay'' advisory vote on the Company's approach to executive compensation, which is intended to form an important part of the ongoing engagement between shareholders and the Board. At the meeting, shareholders will be asked to consider, and if deemed advisable, approve the following advisory resolution:

*Resolved, on an advisory basis and not to diminish the role and responsibilities of the Board, the shareholders accept the approach to executive compensation disclosed in the Company's management information circular delivered in respect of the 2025 annual general meeting of shareholders.* 

Because this vote is advisory, it will not be binding upon the Board. However, the Board and the Human Resources and Compensation Committee will take the outcome of the vote into account in their ongoing review of executive compensation.

**REPORT ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION**

**Letter from the Human Resources and Compensation Committee**

Dear Centerra Shareholders,

Centerra continued to make solid progress in 2025, executing on its strategic priorities and strengthening the foundation for long-term value creation. The year reflected continued focus on disciplined execution, consistently improving operational performance, and advancing initiatives intended to unlock the full potential of our asset portfolio while delivering value for our shareholders.

In addition to the detailed discussion of performance against our 2025 objectives included elsewhere in this Management Information Circular, we wish to highlight several key accomplishments from the year:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Centerra made further progress executing its strategic plan and advancing long-life asset optionality. In September
2025, Centerra published the Pre-Feasibility Study ()"**PFS**") results for Mount Milligan which extends the life of mine
by approximately 10 years to 2045. This is supported by an optimized mine plan delivering average annual production of 150,000 ounces
of gold and 69 million pounds of copper from 2026 to 2042, followed by the processing of low-grade stockpiles from 2043 to 2045. The
PFS reaffirms Mount Milligan's position as a strategic cornerstone asset with a long mine life, attractive cost structure, and
continued exploration potential in a top-tier mining jurisdiction.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Centerra continued the execution of a value maximization
strategy for the Molybdenum Business Unit, successfully ramping up production at Langeloth and advancing mine development and construction
work at the Thompson Creek mine.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• During the 2025 year, Centerra advanced work for the Kemess project in British Columbia progressing studies and permitting-related
activities in a manner aligned with regulatory requirements and community expectations, supporting the project's long-term optionality
within the Company's growth pipeline. This work resulted in the release of an updated mineral resource and the results of a Preliminary
Economic Assessment for the Kemess project in early January 2026, supporting long-term production potential.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Centerra completed a technical study of its Goldfield project confirming attractive project economics and resulting
in the approval and commencement of construction of the Goldfield project. Goldfield is expected to deliver a streamlined, low-risk development
path, with first production targeted by the end of 2028.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Centerra operating performance improved in the second half of the year while maintaining a strong financial position.
The Company continued to generate reliable production from its key operating assets, while preserving financial flexibility. A strong
balance sheet and prudent capital allocation supported ongoing investment in strategic initiatives, alongside continued returns to shareholders
through dividends and share buybacks, consistent with the Company's capital allocation framework.

**Alignment with Compensation Outcomes**

Following a thorough review of financial, operating and strategic achievements in 2025 with consideration given to safety performance below expectations and challenging performance at certain operations, the HRC Committee recommended, and the Board approved an annual incentive plan score for executives (and corporate roles) equal to 100% of target. When combined with an assessment of Mr. Tomory's individual performance goals, he received an annual incentive plan award of $1,043,625, equal to 110% of target. Among the other named executive officers, annual incentive plan awards ranged from $325,202 to $412,456, or 109% to 115% of target.

When all elements of total compensation are considered, realized and realizable compensation for executive officers in 2025 was closely aligned with shareholder outcomes. While the Company made meaningful progress executing its strategic priorities and experienced improvement in its share price during the year, the cumulative impact of prior-year share price performance continued to affect the value ultimately realized from long-term incentive awards over the applicable performance periods.

Performance share units that vested in 2025 reflected relative total shareholder returns measured over their respective performance periods, with payouts aligned to the Company's positioning against the peer group. The value realized on vested awards was influenced by share price appreciation over the performance period, consistent with the returns experienced by shareholders. Restricted share units that vested during the year similarly reflected market-based valuation at settlement.

At the end of 2025, outstanding PSUs are tracking in line with relative performance expectations within the Company's performance peer group, and previously underwater stock options are now in-the-money following sustained improvement in the Company's share price. Looking ahead, the Board and management remain focused on executing a strategy aimed at

long-term value creation, supported by a compensation framework that reinforces pay-for-performance and maintains strong alignment between executives and shareholders.

**HRC Committee Activities in 2025**

In addition to the ongoing oversight of human resources programs, executive compensation and governance, and succession planning, the HRC Committee also completed the following in 2025:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Reviewed the Company's industry peer group for assessing executive and director compensation and made several
updates to the peer group to enhance overall sample size and include companies that reflect Centerra's broader mix of mining operations.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Reviewed market trends and best practices for executive compensation design, prepared by the HRC Committee's
independent advisor, and confirmed the appropriateness of the annual incentive plan, and reviewed and approved changes to the peer group
and performance metrics associated with the Performance Share Units granted under the LTI Plan (as defined below).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Reviewed and replaced the Supplementary Executive Retirement Plan with Retirement Contributions to better align with
current market practices.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Reviewed the competitiveness of compensation levels for senior executives.

**Key Areas of Focus for 2026**

In 2026, the HRC Committee will continue to focus on aligning pay outcomes with the achievement of objectives that create value for shareholders. The annual incentive plan for fiscal 2026 will emphasize our focus on financial and operating performance coupled with growth and internal value creation through continued execution of the strategic plan announced in September 2023. With the assistance of our external compensation advisor, Southlea Group, the Committee will do a comprehensive risk assessment in 2026 and will also review the compensation peer group to ensure the competitive peers selected are still relevant to Centerra given its current size, assets and strategy.

**Annual Meeting**

I trust this letter provides insight into Centerra's performance in 2025 and the HRC Committee's rationale for compensation decisions made for the President and Chief Executive Officer and other Named Executive Officers (as defined below). I hope you will participate in the Meeting, and I encourage you to ask questions of me or any of the other members of the HRC Committee on issues of interest to you.

**Compensation Governance**

**Human Resources and Compensation Committee Composition**

The current members of the HRC Committee are Mr. Perron (Chair), Ms. Lipson and Mr. Parrett, each of whom is independent of Centerra. The Board has adopted a formal charter for the HRC Committee, which provides that one of the primary purposes of the HRC Committee is to assist the Board in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities in relation to the selection, retention and compensation of the CEO and senior management. See "Report on Corporate Governance – Committees of the Board of Directors" on page 46 for a detailed description of the HRC Committee charter.

**Human Resources and Compensation Committee Expertise**

Each of the three HRC Committee members has considerable prior experience in human resources and compensation matters. The specific experience of each HRC Committee member relevant to serving on the HRC Committee is set out below.

**Mr. Perron** became the Chair of the HRC Committee on August 1, 2024. During his career, Mr. Perron was President and Chief Executive Officer of several mining companies and was involved closely with executive compensation. Since 2016, he has also served on several boards of mining companies with oversight of human resources and executive compensation topics. He currently serves on the Compensation and ESG Committee of Franco-Nevada Corporation and is the Chair of the Board of Arizona Metals Corp.

**Ms. Lipson** became a member of the HRC Committee upon her election to the Board in May 2025. She previously served as Corporate Secretary and legal advisor to the Newmont Compensation Committee for 15 years. From 2006 to July 2023, Ms. Lipson acted as a central advisor to the Compensation Committee of the Board, the executive leadership team, and Human Resources on executive compensation matters, including compensation trends, plan and policy design, governance rules, and disclosure obligations. Her experience includes supporting the expansion of the Board committee mandate to incorporate talent and inclusion and diversity topics. Ms. Lipson has extensive experience engaging with investors and proxy advisory firms, including navigating an ISS recommendation against Say on Pay. She was responsible for the annual drafting of compensation plans and, working with a cross-functional team and oversaw annual proxy disclosure.

**Mr. Parrett** became a member of the HRC Committee on January 1, 2026. Mr. Parrett previously served as HRC Committee Chair from May 1, 2018, until October 1, 2019; and June 1, 2023, until August 1, 2024. Mr. Parrett has significant experience as a public company director and has previously served on the compensation committees of Stillwater Mining Company, Pengrowth Energy Corporation, where he served as Chair of the Compensation Committee, and of Gabriel Resources Limited, where he served as Chair of the Board of Directors and as Chair of its Compensation Committee.

**Human Resources and Compensation Committee's Role in Setting Executive Compensation**

The HRC Committee, with the assistance of outside advisors, as appropriate, is involved in setting and reviewing executive compensation in the following ways:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• It annually reviews the executive compensation programs of the Company's comparator group to benchmark Centerra's
executive compensation level and practices, including base salaries, and applicable targets for short-term and long-term incentive awards
to executives.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• It
annually reviews the Company's compensation framework to ensure that it is designed to meet the Company's compensation philosophy
and objectives and encourages executives and other employees to carry out the Company's objectives. Such review includes evaluating
the relative weighting of fixed and variable (or "at risk")

compensation, such as performance share units ("**PSUs**"), restricted share units ("**RSUs**"), and stock options ("**Options**") to acquire Shares.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• It annually reviews and approves (or recommends to the Board for approval, where required) the Company's targets
for its annual incentive plan, taking into consideration Centerra's corporate objectives and potential risks that the Company may
face or that are inherent in the industry. The review process is carried out with the involvement of other Board committees, including
the Technical and Corporate Responsibility Committee, as appropriate. The HRC Committee also annually reviews, with the assistance of
other Board committees, as appropriate, the achievement of such targets.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• It makes recommendations to the Board regarding compensation and objectives for the CEO.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• It reviews and approves compensation for the executives who report directly to the CEO.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• It retains discretion to create, modify or reduce incentive awards, including bonuses, PSUs, RSUs, and Options.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• It reviews Share ownership requirements and confirms that executives are compliant with such requirements.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• It reviews, every two years, the board compensation programs of the Company's comparator group to benchmark Centerra's
director compensation and makes recommendations to the Board as appropriate.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• It reviews, as applicable, the Company's Statement of Executive Compensation and similar public disclosure to
ensure transparent disclosure to shareholders, with clear explanations of the process and rationale for pay decisions that demonstrate
how pay aligns with Company performance.

**Managing Compensation-Related Risk**

Annually, the HRC Committee reviews the Company's compensation policies and practices to assess risks associated with the compensation program. This review is conducted by independent external advisors who also provide regular updates to the HRC Committee regarding compensation related risks and corporate governance matters affecting compensation practices. Current practices that demonstrate effective governance and executive compensation risk management:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| **What we do** | **What we do** | **What we do** | **What we do** |
| ✔ | We pay for performance | ✔ | We have a corporate disclosure and insider trading policy |
| ✔ | We review compensation annually | ✔ | We have a double trigger for termination payments following a change of control |
| ✔ | We have mandatory minimum share ownership policies for directors and executive officers | ✔ | We have a claw-back policy for executives that aligns with market practices and applicable securities laws |
| ✔ | The HRC Committee may exercise discretion in assessing components of annual incentive performance | ✔ | We have a HRC Committee whose members are all independent directors |
| ✔ | We maintain an executive compensation program with more than 72% of pay considered at-risk, and use an appropriate compensation mix, with fixed and performance-based compensation | ✔ | Incentive awards are based on multiple metrics, short-term incentive pay for executives is weighted heavily on corporate results and payouts are capped |
| ✔ | Executive equity awards vest over 3 years with overlapping vesting to promote retention and keep executives exposed to the risks of their decisions; vesting periods align with risk realization periods | ✔ | The HRC Committee retains independent advisors who provide perspective on best practices in executive compensation, governance, and risk management |
| **What we do not do** | **What we do not do** | **What we do not do** | **What we do not do** |
| 🗶 | We do not guarantee incentive compensation | 🗶 | We do not re-price Options that are out of the money |
| 🗶 | We do not grant options to non-executive directors | 🗶 | We do not provide tax gross ups to executives |

---

A full review of compensation-related risk is completed by the independent advisor every two to three years and overseen by the HRC Committee. The last full review and report was completed in March 2023 by Southlea Group ("**Southlea**") and concluded that there were no risks arising from Centerra's executive compensation programs that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on Centerra. The next full review of compensation related risk will be completed in March 2026.

**Human Resources and Compensation Consultant Fees**

In 2022, Southlea, an executive compensation consulting firm, was engaged to be the HRC Committee's ongoing independent advisor. From time to time, management may also engage Southlea to provide consulting services. While neither the Board nor the HRC Committee is required by their mandates to pre-approve other services the HRC Committee consultant or advisor

(or any of its affiliates) provides to the Company at the request of management, the Company's practice has been for the Chair of the HRC Committee to pre-approve such engagements to ensure independence and transparency.

The following chart shows the aggregate fees paid to human resources consultants or advisors, or any of their affiliates, for consulting services (excluding purchased surveys) related to determining compensation for any of the Company's directors and executive officers, for the past two financial years.

| **Total** | **$232998** | **$4995** | **$171009** | **$2964** |

---

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1. In 2024 and 2025, "All
 Other Fees" for Korn Ferry Hay Group were related to Black – Scholes valuation
 pricing.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2. In 2025, "Executive
 Compensation Related Fees" for Southlea were higher than normal due to the biennial
 director compensation review, review of PSU comparative peer groups and support of the review
 and work on the discontinuation of the Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan.

**Executive Share Ownership**

The Board believes that executive officers, including the NEOs, should hold a significant ownership interest in Centerra to align their interests with those of Centerra's shareholders, focus executives officers on improving total shareholder returns ("**TSR**") over time and mitigate compensation related risks. As a result, the Board has adopted a Share ownership policy setting forth Share ownership expectations applicable to executive officers.

The CEO is required to attain a level of Share ownership equivalent to 3 times basic annual salary. All other executive officers are required to attain a level of Share ownership equivalent to 1.5 times basic annual salary. Executive officers must fulfill their Share ownership requirement within five years of becoming subject to the Executive Share Ownership policy. A minimum of one-third of the required level of Share ownership must be met through the ownership of Shares. The balance of the required level of Share ownership can be achieved through PSUs and RSUs held pursuant to the LTI Plan and Legacy Plans (each as defined below), and any other equity plan as determined by the HRC Committee. Options are not included in the calculation of an executive officer's Share ownership.

Centerra's Omnibus Incentive Plan (the "**LTI Plan**"), which was approved by shareholders at the Company's annual and special meeting held on May 9, 2023, replaced Centerra's Amended and Restated Restricted Share Unit Plan (the "**Legacy RSU Plan**"); Directors Share Unit Plan (the "**Legacy DSU Plan**"); Performance Share Unit Plan (the "**Legacy PSU Plan**"); and Share Option and Share Appreciation Rights Plan (the "**Legacy Option Plan**") (collectively, the "**Legacy Plans**").

When calculating the value of executive officer Share ownership, Shares, RSUs and PSUs are valued as follows:

Shares and RSUs are valued at the higher of "Acquisition Value" or "Market Value". PSUs are valued at the "**Acquisition Value**" only. "**Acquisition Value**" is either the (i) cost at acquisition, or (ii) intended value at the time of grant (using a 5-day volume weighted average price ("**VWAP**")), all as applicable. "**Market Value**" is, as of March 4, 2026 the 5-day VWAP of Shares on the TSX.

|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| **Ownership Valuation** | **Shares**<br> **(Higher of)** | **LTI RSUs**<br> **(Higher of)** | **Legacy RSUs**<br> **(Higher of)** | **PSUs** |
| **Acquisition Value** | Cost at acquisition | Intended value at time of grant | Cost at acquisition<br> (amount of Annual Incentive Plan ("**AIP**") ,onus directed to purchase RSUs) | Intended value at time of grant |

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1. Salaries for NEOs are as of January
1, 2025 with the exception of Mr. Hendriks whose salary is as of April 15, 2025 when he was appointed Executive Vice President, COO.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2. Targets
 for NEOs are based on January 1, 2025 salaries. As noted above, executive officers must fulfill
 their Share ownership requirement within five years of becoming an executive officer (and
 subsequently have 5 years from each increase in salary to meet the updated target). Pursuant
 to the requirements for executive officer Share ownership, a minimum of one-third of the
 Share ownership level must be met through the ownership of Shares. Current targets as of
 March 4, 2026 are as follows: Mr. Tomory: $2,250,000 (May 1, 2028); Mr. Snyder: $645,000
 (April 8, 2029); Mr. Hendriks: $828,197 (April 15, 2030); Mr. Rehman: $667,500 (January 1,
 2026); and Ms. D'Orazio: $562,500 (January 1, 2026).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3. "Acquisition
 Value" is either the (i) cost at acquisition, or (ii) intended value at the time of
 grant (using a 5-day VWAP), all as applicable. Or, in the case of Legacy RSUs, the value
 of the annual incentive plan (bonus) directed by the executive to purchase Legacy RSUs.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4. "Market
 Value" is, as of March 4, 2026, the 5-day VWAP of Shares on the TSX being $27.52.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5. Calculated
 at the higher of total Acquisition Value or Market Value of holdings divided by current base
 salary.

**Succession Planning for Senior Management**

Talent management and succession planning are critical to Centerra's continued success and the Board has a formal process for annually reviewing succession planning for its executive officers and other senior management positions, including the CEO. The Board discharges these duties principally through the HRC Committee, which monitors progress in succession for executive positions reporting to the CEO to help ensure that the Company's business will continue to be effectively managed in the future. In July of each year, the HRC Committee undertakes an in-depth review of succession planning, including a report from the President and CEO on succession for his direct reports and other senior management positions.

The CEO, working with the executive team, identifies potential internal successors for each of the NEOs and senior management positions throughout the organization. This includes the identification of successors that are "ready now" and on a longer-term basis. Further, to ensure business continuity, successors are also identified who may be able to serve in a temporary or emergency basis in the event of an unexpected vacancy. Both planning processes ensure that any business impacts are minimized, and operational continuity and stability is maintained when critical transitions occur.

The succession plans and related leadership development are based on Centerra's annual talent management program which include talent reviews and identification and assessment processes that extends beyond the leadership level. The Company applies a leadership competency model to identify core and complementary leadership qualities required of its top leaders with specific competencies and learning journeys for aspiring leaders, emerging leaders and experienced leaders. This process cascades down through other levels of the organization and allows for the identification of high performing individuals and defined succession planning for all key roles in the Company including individualized development plans that can be supplemented with challenging project or work assignments, secondments, rotations, 360-degree reviews, continued education, coaching and mentoring.

The Company's succession planning process includes succession planning for the CEO, who annually provides a list of potential successors for the CEO position to the HRC Committee and discusses each potential candidate. These discussions include an assessment of each candidate's strengths, areas of development, long-term potential, and the steps the CEO is taking to help ensure a strong pipeline of internal talent is available to the Company. The process includes the identification of candidates that could, in appropriate circumstances, step into the role immediately, on a permanent or interim basis.

The announcement of the departure of Centerra's Executive Vice President, COO, Paul Chawrun resulted in the President and CEO and relevant Board committees reviewing the readiness and skillset of the internal candidates identified as potential replacements for the COO position during the succession planning process. None of the identified COO successors were ready

for the COO position at that time with all having several years of development ahead of them before taking on such responsibility. The President and CEO and the relevant Board committees decided to conduct an external search for a COO and eventually appointed David Hendriks as Executive Vice President, COO effective April 15, 2025.

**Compensation Philosophy and Objectives**

Centerra's executive compensation program is intended to support the Company's business and financial objectives, and is designed to attract, retain, and motivate executives and align their interests with the short and long-term interests of Centerra's shareholders by:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Providing compensation levels competitive with comparator group companies in the mining industry;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Linking executive compensation to corporate performance and the creation of shareholder value;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Promoting prudent risk taking in accordance with the Company's risk appetite;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Rewarding the achievement of corporate and individual performance objectives; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Promoting internal equity and a disciplined qualitative and quantitative assessment of performance.

**Peer Group for Benchmarking Compensation**

As part of Southlea's mandate, they assist the HRC Committee in conducting an annual review of the group of companies used by the Company as a reference for determining competitive total compensation for the President and CEO and senior executive roles. The peer group is selected from North American-based, publicly traded, mining companies (including gold and diversified metals) with whom Centerra competes for executive and other professional talent. Key selection considerations include size, operating complexity and international scope, and organizational structure.

Following a review conducted in 2025, several updates to the peer group were made to enhance overall sample size and include companies that reflect Centerra's broader mix of mining operations. The Company's updated peer group comprises the following seventeen companies:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| B2Gold Corp. | Ero Copper Corp. | Lundin Gold Inc. |
| Capstone Copper Corp. | First Majestic Silver Corp. | New Gold Inc. |
| Coeur Mining, Inc. | Fortuna Mining Corp. | SSR Mining Inc. |
| DPM Metals Inc. | Hecla Mining Company | Taseko Mines Limited |
| Eldorado Gold Corporation | Hudbay Minerals Inc. | Torex Gold Resources Inc. |
| Equinox Gold Corp. | IAMGOLD Corporation |  |

**Components of Executive Compensation**

Centerra's compensation program is designed to provide its executive officers with total compensation targeted at the 50<sup>th</sup> percentile of its comparator group of companies when Company and individual performance objectives are achieved, with the opportunity for additional compensation when performance exceeds predetermined targets or performance comparator ratios.

The table below summarizes Centerra's four components of total compensation for executives, including base salary, annual cash incentive plan compensation, mid-term and long-term incentive plan compensation made up of share-based awards and Options; and employee benefits and executive perquisites, including, in respect of 2024 and prior years, a Supplementary Executive Retirement Plan ("**SERP**") in the form of a Retirement Compensation Arrangement ("**RCA**") Trust, which was replaced, commencing in 2025, by an entitlement to annual cash amounts paid by the Company to participating executives for their retirement savings ("**Retirement Contributions**") (for further details, see "Report on Executive Compensation - Executive Retirement Contributions" below).

Summary of Compensation Components

![](p20.jpg)

Target Total Direct Compensation and Target Pay Mix

The HRC Committee annually reviews the various elements of compensation to ensure alignment with the goals of Centerra and each executive, as well as Centerra's compensation objectives and philosophy. While the precise proportions of executive compensation will vary from year to year, the HRC Committee and the Board's compensation philosophy is that most compensation paid to executives should be "at-risk" (annual cash incentive bonus, PSUs, Options, and RSUs where appropriate) to more closely align executives' actions and decisions with the interests of the Company's shareholders. In 2025, 72.3% (on average) of the NEOs' total target compensation was "at risk" compensation.

1. Mr. Hendrik's 2025 Base Salary was $552,131. He received a pro-rated portion of it, and subsequently
pro-rated AIP and LTI Plan grant values, based on his April 15, 2025 appointment to Executive Vice President, COO.

2. The number of PSUs and RSUs awarded is determined by dividing the target value of the grant by the five-day
VWAP as of the grant date. The corresponding number of Options is determined by dividing the target value of the Option grant by the product
of the VWAP, in Canadian dollars, of Shares on the TSX for the five trading days immediately preceding the date of the grant and the Black-Scholes
Option value which an independent compensation consulting firm prepares for Centerra prior to each grant.

**Compensation Decisions for 2025**

**Base Salary**

CEO salary changes are determined by the Board. Any salary changes for the other NEOs, all of whom report directly to the CEO, are recommended by the CEO to the HRC Committee who makes the final determination of any salary increase.

**Annual Cash Incentive Plan**

The short-term incentive plan uses an additive design with weights assigned to corporate and individual performance components. NEO's overall performance result, and subsequent payout is calculated with the impact of the Company scorecard weighted based on their level within the organization.

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| **Executive** | **Company Score** <br> **Weighting** | **Individual Score Weighting** |
| **Chief Executive Officer** | 80% | 20% |
| **Executive Vice Presidents and Vice Presidents** | 70% | 30% |

---

The potential score for each of the Company and individual scorecards range from 0-200% with an overall cap of 2 times target payout. If a NEO is promoted during the year and the bonus target changes, the bonus target is pro-rated for the purpose of determining the NEO's annual cash bonus incentive payment at year end.

The formula set out below is used to determine actual cash bonus awards for participants, including the NEOs. Other than base salary, which is discussed above, each element of this formula is discussed below.

2025 Corporate Performance

The Board and management agree on financial, operational and strategic objectives for the year which are based upon a number of factors, including Centerra's annual and long-term business strategy. At the conclusion of each year, the HRC Committee assesses actual performance against these objectives. Centerra's 2025 corporate performance measure was based upon the following performance categories for cash bonus incentive plan purposes:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Growth and internal value creation (45%)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Operating and financial performance (30%)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Environmental social governance (health, safety
and sustainability performance) (25%)

If Centerra meets each of the targeted performance measures, the corporate performance multiplier is 1.0. If the maximum performance is achieved or exceeded for each of the corporate performance measures, the corporate performance multiplier is 2.0. If the minimum performance is not achieved for a particular corporate performance measure, no amount is payable for that measure.

A summary of the 2025 results as well as a discussion of 2025 corporate performance is set out below.

1. TRIFR is penalized by a fatality reducing the score to zero.

***Environmental Social Governance:***

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Centerra ended the 2025 calendar year with a company-wide
TRIFR of 1.11 which did not meet target of 0.71 and was above the minimum threshold of 0.85 resulting in a 0% score for safety.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Centerra implemented six safety leading indicators
in 2024 which have been consistently tracked throughout the year. However, for 2025, the focus was on two leading indicators; VFL interactions
and MFR verifications. Year end results for each of the leading indicators exceeded targets with VFLs scoring 123% and MFRs outperforming
earning a maximum score of 200%.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• For the fifth year in a row, Centerra operated
throughout the year without a material environmental incident at any of the Company's operations. The target for 2025 was to continue
to operate without material environmental incidents and reduce level 2 incidents by 5% when compared to 2024. The reduction of total level
2 incidents was not achieved resulting in a 50% score.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Centerra advanced its global sustainability program
implementing 100% of the 2025 planned initiatives and executed on several other sustainability projects that significantly improved the
Company's relationships with our partners in

the areas we operate. These include several decarbonization and waste reduction achievements at Mount Milligan, Öksüt and Goldfield; advancing our relationships with Centerra's First Nations partners, surrounding communities, and government officials; and work that secured key authorizations and permits to allow continued operations, including at Mount Milligan and Öksüt. The execution in this area resulted in a score of 150%.

***Operating and Financial Performance:***

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Full year 2025 gold production
was lower than target but slightly greater than minimum threshold performance. The Company ended the year with gold production at 275,316
ounces slightly above the minimum threshold and hence scoring 51%.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Full year 2025 copper production
at the Mount Milligan mine of 50.5 million pounds was lower than minimum performance threshold resulting in a score of 0% for 2025.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Adjusted all-in sustaining costs
on a by-product basis per ounce sold (adjusted for a gold price of $2,400 per ounce and a copper price of $4.00 per pound, prices used
when objectives were approved) of US$1,632 was below the minimum threshold performance and resulted in a score of 0%.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· For 2025, the Company set an
adjusted EBITDA target for its Langeloth Facility of $5 million. During the year, the Langeloth Facility achieved full year adjusted EBITDA
of $6.3 million. Non-recurring and unforeseen tariff impacts of $2.2 million were included in the actual adjusted EBITDA figure. The 2025
targets did not incorporate US tariff policy and the Company mitigated the majority of the adverse financial impact of tariffs, through
the renegotiation of contracts and eventually through obtaining a tariff exemption on inbound molybdenum concentrates, saving an additional
~$10 million. Given the above, the resulting score for this objective was 126%.

***Growth and Value Creation***:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• *Advance Thompson Creek mine restart and construction safely and on budget*: Since the restart decision in September 2024, significant progress has been made in advancing the project safely.
The Company expects the total project spending will increase to a range of $425 million to $450 million. This represents an approximate
5-10% increase from the prior estimate of $397 million and is driven by some inflation increases to the costs assumed in the feasibility
study, some additional maintenance incurred for mining equipment and the pull-forward of some activities to de-risk the start-up of production
activities in 2027. Although there has been an increase in costs, the project remains on track for first production expected mid-2027
resulting in a score of 80%.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• *Increase Mount Milligan Life of Mine (LOM)*:
The target for this category was to complete the pre-feasibility study (PFS) to extend the current LOM beyond 2035 and increase mine level
Net Asset Value. In 2025, Centerra issued a news release that provided the results of the Mount Milligan PFS confirming a life of mine
extension by approximately 10 years to 2045, supported by an optimized mine plan. Centerra's recent infill drilling program, resulted
in proven and probable reserves increasing significantly to 4.4 million ounces of gold and 1.7 billion pounds of copper, representing
a 56% and 52% increase, respectively, from year-end 2024. In addition to the completion of the PFS, the Company has significantly advanced
and improved relationships and discussions with B.C. government officials and First Nations. This has, among other things, led to the
designation of MTM as a priority project in British Columbia, expedited the current (2035 mine plan) permitting efforts and paved the
way for our 2045 mine plan permitting process. Given this major milestone for the Company, a score of 150% was awarded (above target)
for these accomplishments.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• *Advance Kemess Value Proposition*: The target
for this objective was to complete internal drilling and engineering scoping studies at Kemess and a revised plan to enhance value for
the asset. All the work was completed in 2025 and in early January 2026, the Company announced an updated mineral resources and the results
of the Preliminary Economic Assessment ()"**PEA**") for the Kemess Project. The Kemess PEA is supported by an expanded mineral
resource base, with mineral inventory of over 2.3 million ounces of gold and 851 million pounds of copper representing 47% of the total
resource tonnes and supports an initial 15-year mine life. This was a significant accomplishment with Kemess having the scale and jurisdictional
advantages to complement Mount Milligan as a potential cornerstone asset. The Company was awarded a maximum score of 200% for this objective.

The HRC Committee reviewed all the accomplishments in 2025 and following a thorough review of 2025 performance, the HRC Committee recommended, and the Board approved an annual incentive plan score for the Company equal to 100% of target.

2025 Individual Performance

Annually, all executives, including the CEO, establish individual performance objectives for the ensuing year. These objectives are generally outside the scope of routine work responsibilities and are designed to reflect Centerra's strategic objectives and overall risk appetite. For the CEO, these objectives are reviewed by the HRC Committee and approved by the Board.

The CEO's individual performance for the purpose of the annual incentive plan cash bonus is based upon performance against the predetermined set of objectives. This performance rating is based upon input from the Chair of the Board, the Chair of the HRC Committee, members of the HRC Committee and Chairs of other committees, as appropriate. This rating and the resultant incentive compensation amount are recommended by the HRC Committee to the Board for approval.

Annually, the CEO provides the Chair of the HRC Committee with individual performance assessments for each of the executives directly reporting to him, which includes the other NEOs. The HRC Committee reviews the recommendations and approves the individual performance scores, with such changes as it considers necessary, for such direct reports of the CEO, taking into account the various factors noted below. Specifically, in assessing individual performance in the context of making executive compensation recommendations, the HRC Committee considers each executives:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• contributions to Centerra's overall performance;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• individual performance relative to pre-established
goals; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• long-term performance and potential for future
advancement or ability to assume roles of greater responsibility.

In assessing each individual NEO's performance, the HRC Committee and the Board considered the individual achievements of each NEO as compared to their individual objectives.

**Mid-term and Long-term Incentives**

Mid-term and long-term incentives ("**LTI**") align the interests of our executives with that of our shareholders by tying a significant portion of their total compensation to the long-term performance of Centerra. LTIs encourage our executives to focus on the long-term impact of their decisions and actions and to provide rewards in the event their efforts result in future value creation. The ultimate value that a recipient receives is contingent upon Centerra's Share price performance.

Equity-based Awards Granted in 2025

A summary of the 2025 LTI awards granted to each NEO is set out in the table below:

1. As noted above, Mr. Hendriks was appointed Executive Vice President, COO on April 15, 2025. His 2025 LTI
grants were pro-rated based on his start date. He received a total salary amount of $414,098 in 2025.

2. Number of LTI awards granted includes the initial grant amounts only. PSUs and RSUs receive additional
dividend equivalent PSUs and RSUs, respectively, each time a dividend is paid by Centerra. Dividend equivalents are accrued and then received
upon vest.

Performance Share Unit Vesting Condition

PSUs are granted under the LTI Plan, providing a mid-term incentive that aligns the interests of executives with shareholder value creation. PSUs vest after a performance period of three years from the date of grant. The number of PSUs that vest on the vesting date is based on the relative TSR of a Share compared to a defined performance benchmark over the performance period. The adjustment factor determines the number of PSUs that vest at the end of the performance period, ranging from 0 – 200% of the original number of PSUs granted. Vested PSUs (adjusted by the adjustment factor), plus any dividend equivalents granted on the applicable vested PSUs, are settled automatically by Centerra on the vesting date, with holders entitled to receive, for each vested PSU, the cash equivalent of a Share (based upon its fair market value (as defined in the LTI Plan) immediately prior to the PSU vesting date) or, at Centerra's election, a Share purchased on the open market.

New Performance Peer Group and PSU Adjustment Factor Criteria

Relative TSR has previously been compared to the S&P/TSX Global Gold Index to determine the PSU's adjustment factor. In 2025, the HRC Committee reviewed the PSU performance criteria in light of the Company's evolving strategic direction and determined that the traditional gold mining peer group contained in the S&P/TSX Global Gold Index no longer aligned with Centerra's increasingly diversified metals portfolio. A new performance peer group for PSU TSR benchmarking purposes was identified by applying the following selection considerations:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Sample size of 12 – 15 companies

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Include copper and diversified mining companies with similar operating
characteristics to the Company

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Include gold or silver miners with a broader mix of metals, and/or strong share price correlation and
similar beta to the Company over the past one- and three-year periods

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Include relevant indices as individual constituents of the performance
peer group

Applying these selection considerations, the following performance peer group was adopted by the HRC Committee:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| **PSU Performance Peer Group** | | |
| S&P/TSX Global Gold Index | Ero Copper Corp | IAMGOLD Corporation |
| S&P/TSX Global Base Metals Index | Freeport-McMoRan Inc. | Lundin Mining Corporation |
| Capstone Copper Corp | Fortuna Mining Corp. | New Gold Inc. |
| Dundee Precious Metals | Hudbay Minerals Inc. | Taseko Mines Limited |
| Eldorado Gold Corporation | Hecla Mining Company | |

---

Commencing with PSUs granted in 2025, the number of PSUs that vest on the vesting date is now determined by an adjustment factor based on the percentile rank of the three-year TSR of Shares relative to the three-year TSR of this new performance peer group, following the criteria in the table below. Vesting is capped at 100% of the PSUs originally granted if the three-year TSR of a Share is negative, regardless of the relative TSR performance of the Shares as compared to the performance peer group.

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **Centerra's TSR Percentile Rank vs. Performance Peer Group** | **Adjustment Factor**<br> **(% of Target)** |
| **100<sup>th</sup> Percentile** | 200% |
| **Between 75<sup>th</sup> and 100<sup>th</sup> Percentile** | Linear calculation |
| **50<sup>th</sup> Percentile** | 100% |
| **0 and 50<sup>th</sup> Percentile** | Linear calculation |
| **0** | 0% |

---

In connection with adopting this new relative TSR benchmark criteria, the HRC Committee also reviewed the reasonableness of continuing to apply the historical TSR benchmark (S&P/TSX Global Gold Index) for PSUs granted in 2024. The HRC Committee approved aligning the vesting terms of the 2024 PSUs to the new PSU performance peer group and vesting criteria discussed above. In making this determination, the HRC Committee considered, among other things, that the S&P/TSX Global Gold CAD$ Index had already become misaligned with Centerra's diversified metals portfolio when the 2024 PSUs were granted and therefore did not reflect an appropriate benchmark over the 2024-2026 performance period of these PSUs given the Company's evolving strategic direction, and that at the time of such approval the 2024 PSUs remained in the early stages of their performance cycle, with only one year of the three-year performance period completed at the time of the change**.**

*Vesting of PSUs granted in 2023*

There were no changes made to the performance benchmark for PSUs granted in 2023 (which vested on December 31, 2025 at an adjustment factor of 75.68%). The number of these PSUs that vested were determined by an adjustment factor based on Centerra's TSR compared to the S&P/TSX Global Gold Index over the applicable performance period, applying the following criteria.

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **Centerra's TSR as a Multiple of the S&P/TSX Global Gold Index** | **Adjustment Factor**<br> **(% of Target)** |
| **Greater than 1.5x** | 200% |
| **Between 1.0x and 1.5x** | Linear calculation |
| **1.0x** | 100% |
| **Between 1.0x and 0.75x** | Linear calculation |
| **Below 0.75x** | 0% |

**Share Performance and NEO Compensation**

The following graph compares the cumulative shareholder return for $100 invested in Shares from December 31, 2020 to December 31, 2025. Centerra's 5-year TSR was up 42%, below an increase of 82%, 116% and 103% over the same time period on the TSX Composite Index, the TSX Global Gold Index, and the TSX Global Base Metals Index, respectively. The closing price of the Shares on the TSX on December 31, 2025 was $19.76.

**NEO COMPENSATION VS. SHAREHOLDER RETURNS**

Centerra's executive compensation mix provides approximately one half of total compensation through mid-term and long-term incentives that are directly tied to the Share price, either through PSUs, RSUs or Options. Therefore, executive compensation is highly sensitive to the performance of Share value. As a result, when our Shares out-perform Centerra's performance peer group, the PSUs and RSUs are expected to be redeemed at values above target and most Options are

expected to be "in-the-money". Conversely, when the Shares under-perform Centerra's performance peer group, PSUs are not expected to pay out, RSUs are expected to be redeemed at values below target, and most Options are likely "underwater".

The following graph compares the cumulative shareholder return for $100 invested in Shares from December 31, 2020 to December 31, 2025 compared to NEO total compensation over the same time period.

The average total compensation figure above is a mathematical average of the total compensation paid to the included NEOs in a particular year as reported in the Summary Compensation Table. Only the five current NEOs at the end of each year are included in the total average compensation figure above. It does not include the compensation paid to NEOs who exited the Company mid-year.

**CEO Compensation Lookback Analysis**

The table below compares the value of Mr. Tomory's disclosed total direct compensation (including salary, annual bonus and share-based awards, as reported in the Summary Compensation Table) since his appointment as CEO in May 2023, with its current value (realized and realizable compensation) as of December 31, 2025. The change in compensation is then compared to the change in TSR over the same periods.

The value of CEO compensation closely aligns with the experience of shareholders, with 53**%** of CEO total direct compensation delivered in share-based awards. On average, the realized and realizable value of CEO total direct compensation has increased by 103% while a shareholder's investment has increased by 151% over the three performance periods.

1. Amounts indicated represent actual base salary received in the applicable year. As previously mentioned,
Mr. Hendriks was appointed Executive Vice President, COO on April 15, 2025; the amounts in the above table reflect his pro-rated time
in the role in 2025.

2. Share-based units awarded are PSUs and RSUs which are valued at the grant date based on the fair market
value of a Share calculated as the five-day VWAP. This valuation methodology is used because Centerra believes the fair market value is
a reasonable reflection of the intended value, given that holders of these awards are affected by Share price movement and dividends in
a similar manner as shareholders are affected by such events. The values provided in this table for PSUs and RSUs is the same as the accounting
fair value treatment.

3. Option-based awards are valued at the date of the grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model,
which Centerra has chosen because it is one of the most common valuation methodologies for stock options. The value is determined by an
external compensation consultant each year. These values are meant to reflect the value the Board intended to deliver rather than the
potential accounting expense, and therefore the assumptions used in these two calculations may differ. For comparison purposes, the corresponding
accounting fair values for the Option-based awards for 2025, 2024, and 2023 respectively, were as follows: Paul Tomory $387,789, $358,997
and $281,174; Ryan Snyder $160,079, $122,697, and $61,315; David Hendriks $124,693 (2025); Yousef Rehman $138,081, $136,323, and $161,691;
Claudia D'Orazio $139,886, $131,727, and $156,241.

4. Amounts indicated represent annual incentive bonus earned in the year but paid in the following year.
The Company does not have any non-equity incentive plans related to a period longer than one year except for the PSUs granted under the
LTI Plan which are reflected in column (b) but for greater certainty, the vesting of PSUs does not result in the issuance of treasury
Shares.

5. 2023 and 2024 figures reflect SERP contributions earned by each NEO in the relevant year. SERP contributions
were earned in one year and contributed in the following year. Commencing in respect of 2025, the Company terminated the SERP and replaced
it with Retirement Contribution entitlements. Accordingly, no SERP contributions were earned by NEOs in 2025. While Retirement Contribution
entitlements are calculated in the same manner as SERP contributions, they are paid directly to participating executives for their retirement
savings and NEOs' Retirement Contribution entitlements are therefore reported in this Summary Compensation Table as "All Other
Compensation" (see footnote 6.(i) below).

6. Amount includes: (i) in respect of 2025, the
 value of Retirement Contributions earned, which amounts are equal to twelve percent (12%)
 of NEOS's eligible earnings, where eligible earnings are defined as the prior year's
 base salary paid plus annual bonus incentive, capped at the target incentive value. Retirement
 Contributions are earned in one year and paid in the following year. For further details,
 see "Report on Executive Compensation - Executive Retirement Contributions" below.
 Amounts in the table include the annual Retirement Contributions earned by each NEO in 2025
 as follows: Paul Tomory $212,850; Ryan Snyder $102,168; David Hendriks $89,445; Yousef Rehman
 $90,882; and Claudia D'Orazio $92,070; (ii) the aggregate amount of perquisites received
 in the year; (iii) accrued vacation paid out that was carried forward from the prior year;
 (iv) accountancy fees related to tax returns filed for individual SERPs; (v) Home Security
 monitoring; and (vi) supplemental executive health benefit premiums. This figure does not
 include group benefits which are generally available to all employees of the Company. For
 Mr. Hendriks, this amount also includes a signing bonus paid to him after his April 15, 2025
 appointment to Executive Vice President & COO.

1. In accordance with the terms of the Legacy Option Plan and LTI Plan, Options which expire during or within
ten (10) days immediately following a trading blackout period, shall expire on the later of its expiration date and ten (10) days immediately
following the expiration of the blackout period.

2. The amount in this column is the difference between the closing price on the TSX of the Shares underlying
Options on December 31, 2025, which was $19.76, and the exercise price of the Options multiplied by the number of Options (whether or
not such Options are vested as of March 4, 2026).

3. The market value of PSUs is based upon the market price of the Shares (calculated to be the five-day VWAP
in Canadian dollars, of the Shares on the TSX) and an adjustment factor determined based on Share performance (for the applicable performance
period) relative to the PSU performance peer group as of December 31, 2025. The market value of RSUs that have not vested is based on
the closing price of the Shares on December 31, 2025, which was $19.76.

4. These amounts relate to (A) PSUs which vested on December 31, 2025, and (in accordance with the applicable
plan text) are calculated in Canadian dollars, using the five-day VWAP of the Shares on the TSX, being $20.29 and Centerra's Share
performance relative to the S&P/TSX Global Gold CAD$ TRIV as of the vesting date of December 31, 2025; and (B) all RSUs which have
vested on or prior to December 31, 2025, which have not yet been distributed to or redeemed by participants and which have been valued
using the closing value of the Shares on December 31, 2025 ($19.76).

**Value Vested or Earned During the Year**

1. Represents the aggregate dollar value that would have been realized in 2025 if Options had been exercised
on the applicable vesting date. The value was determined by calculating the difference between the closing price on the TSX, in Canadian
dollars, of the Shares underlying the Options on the vesting date and the exercise price of the Options multiplied by the number of Options
vested.

2. These amounts relate to RSUs and PSUs (including units credited as a dividend equivalent) which vested
during 2025, which have been valued using the market value of the Shares on the applicable vesting dates. The value for PSUs (in accordance
with the applicable plan text) is calculated using the

five-day VWAP, in Canadian dollars, of the Shares on the TSX, being $20.29 and Centerra's Share performance relative to the S&P/TSX Global Gold CAD$ TRIV as of the vesting date of December 31, 2025.

3. Mr. Tomory had 60,572 RSUs vest in 2025; Mr. Snyder had 19,626 RSUs vest in 2025; Mr. Hendriks had 6,609
RSUs vest in 2025; Mr. Rehman had 23,789 RSUs vest in 2025, and Ms. D'Orazio had 23,345 RSUs vest in 2025.

4. Amounts indicated represent the annual incentive bonus earned in the 2025 performance year but paid in
the following year.

1. No NEOs other than Messrs. Snyder and Rehman exercised Options in 2025.

2. Value realized refers to the difference between the sale price of the stock at the time of exercise and
the strike price of the Options. It represents the actual financial benefit received before considering any taxes, fees, or other deductions.

**Executive Retirement Contribution Plan**

Prior to 2025, NEOs and other applicable executives participated in Centerra's SERP under which annual contributions were made by the Company to RCA Trusts established by the Company for its executives. The Company engaged Canadian Benefits Advisors in 2024 to review the SERP and advise on current market practices for retirement compensation programs. As a result of this review, the Company determined to terminate the SERP and replace it with Retirement Contribution entitlements whereby annual cash amounts are paid by the Company directly to NEOs and other participating executives for their retirement savings, providing executives with flexibility to contribute amounts to a personal registered retirement savings plan or alternative investment vehicle. This change to executive retirement compensation was adopted to, among other things, simplify retirement savings, reduce administration burden associated with the SERP and RCA Trusts, and better align the Company's approach to retirement compensation with market practices in the mining industry.

Similar to the SERP design, commencing in 2025, each NEO now is entitled to an annual cash Retirement Contribution equal to twelve percent (12%) of eligible earnings, where eligible earnings are defined as the prior year's base salary paid plus annual bonus incentive, capped at the target incentive value. Retirement Contributions earned in respect of a year will be paid out by the Company to the NEO in the following year. NEOs have the flexibility to contribute such Retirement Contribution amounts to a personal registered retirement savings plan or alternative investment vehicle.

In connection with terminating the SERP, the RCA Trusts of the current NEOs established for the sole purpose of receiving SERP contributions are being wound-up and the accumulated amounts in the NEOs' RCA Trusts paid-out to the NEOs. The Company is covering all costs to facilitate this retirement compensation design change to transition from SERP to Retirement Contributions entitlements and to wind-up the RCA Trusts, including a cash payment to applicable executives as consideration for, and to protect the enforceability of, amendments to their employment agreement to replace the entitlement to SERP contributions with an entitlement to Retirement Contributions, under which the following amounts were paid to NEOs based on each NEO's tenure at Centerra and participation in the SERP: Paul Tomory $3,000; Ryan Snyder $3,000; Yousef Rehman $35,000; Hélène Timpano $3,000; and Claudia D'Orazio $12,500.

**Termination and Change of Control Benefits**

The following is a description of the incremental termination and change of control benefits provided to each of the NEOs pursuant to the terms of the Company's LTI Plan and their respective employment agreements with the Company. The Company's plan and the employment agreements have a "double trigger" meaning that the benefits set out below are only triggered if both of the following events occur: (i) a change of control; and (ii) a termination without cause or a resignation for "good reason" following a change of control. A change of control itself will not trigger any of the benefits set out below.

"Just Cause", "Good Reason", and "Change of Control" are defined in an NEO's employment agreement. Resignation for "Good Reason" is defined in the NEO employment agreements to mean: (i) a material downward change in the NEO's responsibilities or principal position; (ii) a 5% or more reduction in the NEO's base salary or total compensation (except if reduction is related to failure to meet performance targets); (iii) a required relocation anywhere other than the metropolitan area of the NEO's current office location; or (iv) failure to continue any material benefit available under the Company's executive benefit program or the Retirement Contribution, except to the extent that the benefits are discontinued because they can no longer be obtained by the Company at a reasonable cost.

1. "Just Cause", "Good Reason", and "Change of Control" are defined in
an NEO's employment agreement.

2. Prorated PSUs means a percentage of outstanding PSUs based on the period from the grant date to the termination
date relative to the entire vesting period. For example, if a NEO was terminated without cause 18 months after grant of LTI Plan PSUs,
the entitlement would be to 18/36 of the PSUs that would vest during such performance period. For a further discussion on the vesting
periods of PSUs, see "Compensation Discussion and Analysis – Performance Share Unit Plan" on page 26.

3. All outstanding awards granted under the Company's Legacy Plans prior to 2023 were fully vested
as of December 31, 2025. As a result, the accelerated vesting provisions that would otherwise have applied in connection with certain
termination events, including a termination without Just Cause or for Good Reason or following a Change of Control, are not applicable.
No Legacy PSUs were outstanding in 2025.

Each NEO has agreed that, except with advance written consent from Centerra, they will not compete with Centerra for a period of six to twelve months, dependent on length of service, (12 months in the case of Mr. Tomory) following the cessation of employment or solicit Centerra's employees or full-time consultants for a period of two years following the cessation of employment. Each NEO has further agreed not to disclose any confidential information after the cessation of employment, to waive all moral rights to any intellectual property in favour of Centerra and that all right, title and interest in any intellectual property and copyright is for the exclusive use of Centerra.

The tables below provide details on the estimated incremental payments, payables and benefits by Centerra to each NEO that would have resulted had the relevant triggering event occurred on December 31, 2025. For equity-based compensation, the values represent the "in-the-money" value of any awards that vest or will become vested as a result of the termination circumstance. The values are based on a Share price of $19.76, being the closing price of the Shares on December 31, 2025.

1. Severance includes salary and annual incentive plan bonus at target for the severance period. In the
case of "Termination without Just Cause or Good Reason" or "Termination without Just Cause or Good Reason within 24
months of a Change of Control" which occurs on December 31, 2025, a NEO would not receive more than the annual incentive plan bonus
for all of 2025, which would be calculated based on corporate performance and the individual performance being no less than "meets
expectations". Accordingly, in either termination scenario, for the 2025 incentive, there would be no incremental benefit to a NEO.

2. In the case of "Termination without Just Cause or Good Reason", for LTI Plan and Legacy Plan
Options, there is no incremental benefit to a NEO because unvested Options as at the termination date are cancelled, except for Mr. Rehman.
Mr. Rehman's employment contract provides for accelerated vesting of Options that would have otherwise vested in the 24-month period
following a "Termination Without Just Cause or Good Reason". In the case of "Termination with Just Cause of Good Reason
within 24 months of a Change of Control", the value reflects only those unvested Options, which would accelerate in these circumstances
that are "in the money". As noted previously, there were no unvested Legacy Plan Options outstanding as of December 31, 2025;
the value noted for Mr. Rehman comprises LTI Plan Options only. All vested LTI Plan and Legacy Plan Options are exercisable for a period
of 90 days following the termination date.

3. The PSU values above reflect only LTI Plan outstanding PSUs that would not have otherwise vested on December
31, 2025. In the case of a "Termination without Just Cause or Good Reason" which occurs on December 31, 2025, under the LTI
Plan, PSUs would be pro-rated to the termination date, and the remaining units would vest as of the termination date, with the PSU payment
amount based on an adjustment factor equal to the adjustment factor on December 31, 2025 (the termination date) or 1.0, whichever is lower.
Under the LTI Plan, in the case of "Termination without Just Cause or for a Good Reason within 24 months of a Change of Control",
all unvested PSUs granted under both Plans vest based on actual performance as of December 31, 2025.

4. In the case of a "Termination without Just Cause or Good Reason", all outstanding LTI Plan
RSUs would vest on a pro-rated basis to the termination date **,** and all remaining unvested RSUs would be forfeited. In the case of
"Termination without Just Cause or for a Good Reason within 24 months of a Change of Control", all outstanding LTI Plan RSUs
vest as of December 31, 2025. In the case of a "Termination without Just Cause or Good Reason" or "Termination without
Just Cause or Good Reason within 24 months of a Change of Control", all unvested Legacy RSUs held by the NEO on the NEO's
termination date shall immediately vest. Legacy RSUs were only granted under the Legacy RSU Plan. There were no unvested Legacy RSUs as
of December 31, 2025.

**REPORT ON DIRECTOR COMPENSATION**

Only directors who are not employees of Centerra are paid for serving as directors of Centerra. Every two years, the HRC Committee, with the advice of an independent compensation consultant, reviews the compensation paid to Centerra's Board members in order to ensure it is in line with its comparator group companies. The most recent director compensation review was completed in 2024 by Southlea, with comparison made to the same sample of industry peers used to benchmark executive compensation. Following a review of the market data, the Company adopted a new director compensation framework, effective from and after January 1, 2025, that aligns compensation for directors to industry standard by eliminating meeting fees and adopting an all-in cash retainer. If there are more than ten Board meetings in a calendar year, an additional meeting fee of CAD$1,500 per Board meeting to be paid to Board members for each Board meeting after the tenth Board meeting in a calendar year. If there are more than six meetings of a single Board committee in a year, an additional meeting fee of CAD$1,500 per meeting to be paid to committee members for each committee meeting after the sixth meeting of that committee in a calendar year.

2025 Director compensation was comprised of the following components:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| | **Total Compensation($)** |
| Annual Retainer: Chair of the Board<sup>(1)</sup> | 360000 |
| Annual Retainer: Other Board Members<sup>(1)</sup> | 225000 |
| Annual Retainer: Chair of any committee<sup>(1)</sup> | 32500 |
| Annual Retainer: Member of any committee<sup>(1)</sup> | 7500 |
| Travel allowance within North America<sup>(2)</sup> | 1500 |
| Travel allowance outside North America<sup>(2)</sup> | 4500 |
| Per diem for international travel<sup>(3)</sup> | 1500 |

---

1. A portion of the annual retainers for each director and the Chair of the Board must be taken as equity-based
compensation in the form of DSUs and/or Director RSUs under the LTI Plan (as defined below) (or, if approved, cash settled RSUs). The
minimum to be taken in such equity units for the Chair of the Board's retainer is $225,000 and for each director's retainer
is $115,000.

2. For directors not resident where the Board meeting is physically occurring, a travel allowance of $1,500
per trip within North America, and $4,500 in the case of travel outside North America is provided.

3. Directors also receive a per diem amount of $1,500 for international travel made at the request of the
Chair or the President and CEO of Centerra. This does not apply for regularly scheduled Board meetings.

None of the directors receive any non-equity incentive plan compensation or any pension related compensation.

1. Percentages in this table may not add to 100% due to rounding. Figures represent the amounts earned during
2025 – a portion of the compensation (earned in respect of the fourth quarter of 2025) was not paid to directors until early 2026.

2. This reflects all directors in 2025. Ms. Pressler and Ms. Yurkovich did not stand for re-election and
ceased to be a Directors of the Board effective May 6, 2025. Ms. David-Green and Ms. Lipson were appointed to the Board of Directors at
the Annual General Meeting on May 6, 2025. Mr. Parrett served as Chair of the Board of Directors throughout 2025.

3. The cash portion of the fees earned includes the cash portion of a director's retainer, committee
member fees and, where applicable, fees for acting as a chair, travel allowances, and additional meeting fees.

4. This figure includes the intended value of DSUs, or Director RSUs awarded as a result of fees earned during
2025. The number of DSUs or Director RSUs actually awarded in respect of the fees earned during 2025 is equal to the dollar amount of
fees earned divided by the VWAP of Shares on the TSX for the five trading days immediately preceding the date of the award. In the case
of Director RSUs and DSUs which were earned in 2025 and subsequently vested and redeemed in 2025, the value above reflects the intended
value of the Director RSU and DSU grants and not the actual amount paid upon redemption, which amounts can be found in the table "Directors
Incentive Plan Awards (Value Vested During 2025)".

**Share Ownership of Directors**

Centerra has established a Share ownership policy for its non-executive directors requiring a value equal to three times such director's annual retainer (from time to time), to be acquired within a period of five years of becoming a director. When a director receives an increase in annual retainer, which would result in an increase to ownership requirement, the director has five years from the date of such increase to achieve the incremental Share ownership requirement.

Since the value of DSUs and Director RSUs under the LTI Plan are tied directly to Centerra's Share price, DSUs and Director RSUs under the LTI Plan count toward the achievement of these ownership levels, in addition to Shares themselves. DSUs and Director RSUs under the Legacy Plans are Share units which have already been earned by directors and are not contingent on future conditions, including performance or time vesting. DSUs and RSUs granted to directors under the LTI Plan will also count toward the achievement of these ownership levels. RSUs granted to directors under the LTI Plan and the Legacy RSU Plan settle in Shares, unless the directors elect to receive the equivalent cash value instead.

Share ownership level of non-executive directors is calculated using the higher value of the Acquisition Value or Market Value of Shares, DSUs and Director RSUs.

The following table sets out the Share ownership of each of the Company's incumbent directors, their Share ownership requirement, calculated as of March 4, 2026 and a description of whether each director meets their Share ownership requirements. Each of the directors were, as of March 4, 2026, in compliance with their Share ownership requirements.

1. The target Share ownership level set out in the table above reflects the ownership requirement based on
2025 annual retainers.

2. Acquisition Value of holdings is calculated as follows: (i) Shares are valued at cost at acquisition;
and (ii) DSUs and RSUs are valued based on the intended value at the time of grant (valued at the five-day VWAP as of the grant date).

3. Market Value of holdings is determined as follows: the total holdings multiplied by $27.52, the five-day
VWAP of Shares on the TSX as of March 4, 2026.

4. Directors have five years to meet their Share ownership requirement. Ms. David-Green and Ms. Lipson have
until May 6, 2030, respectively, to meet their Share ownership requirements.

5. Calculated at the higher of Acquisition Value of Holdings and Total Current Market Value of Holdings divided
by current annual cash retainer.

**Directors Share-Based Awards, Option-Based Awards and Non-Equity Incentive Plan Compensation**

The following table sets out Share-based awards (DSUs and Director RSUs) as of December 31, 2025 for all non-executive directors in 2025. DSUs do not vest until the director ceases to hold any positions with the Company. Director RSUs vest immediately but are not redeemed until the director elects a redemption date, which date can be during the time when he or she continues to act as a director of Centerra or up until one year thereafter. The following sets out only those DSUs and Director RSUs which remained outstanding as of December 31, 2025 and were not redeemed in 2025. DSUs and Director

RSUs redeemed during 2025 are found in the next table. Non-executive directors of Centerra do not have any Option-based awards or any non-equity incentive plan compensation.

1. Share-based awards for director compensation can be either in the form of DSUs or Director RSUs. Director
RSUs vest immediately upon their grant by the Company but are not redeemed until the director elects a redemption date, which date can
be during the time when he or she continues to act as a director of Centerra or up until one year thereafter. Under both the Legacy and
LTI Plans, DSUs do not vest until they are redeemed in accordance with their terms and cannot be redeemed until the director no longer
holds a position with Centerra or its subsidiaries, until December of the following year. Despite the differences in vesting, both Director
RSUs and DSUs represent earned compensation for directors as there is no further performance requirement to be achieved.

2. The value of DSUs and Director RSUs was determined by multiplying the number of DSUs and Director RSUs
held by a director by the closing price on the TSX of Shares on December 31, 2025, which was $19.76.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3. Mr. Wright's vested share-based awards amount includes RSUs granted to him as a milestone award
in 2023 when he completed his appointment as Interim President and CEO.

4. Ms. Pressler and Ms. Yurkovich did not stand for re-election and ceased to be Directors of the Board effective
May 6, 2025.

1. Gross Redemption Amount is determined by multiplying the number of Director RSUs redeemed by the market
value of Shares as at the Redemption Date, being the VWAP, in Canadian dollars, of the Shares on the TSX, for the five trading days immediately
before the Redemption Date.

**Director Restricted Share Units**

Under both the Legacy RSU Plan and the LTI Plan, all Director RSUs vest immediately upon grant by the Company and can be redeemed at any time thereafter in accordance with its terms (See "Equity Compensation Plan Information – LTI Plan RSUs and PSUs"). No Director RSUs were redeemed for cash or Shares in 2025 by current directors:

1. Gross Redemption Amount is determined by multiplying the number of Director RSUs redeemed by the market
value of Shares as at the Redemption Date, being the VWAP, in Canadian dollars, of the Shares on the TSX, for the five trading days immediately
before the Redemption Date.

**EQUITY COMPENSATION PLAN INFORMATION**

The LTI Plan was approved by shareholders at the Company's annual and special meeting held on May 9, 2023, effectively replaced Centerra's Legacy Plans, as described below. Awards (as defined below) granted under the Legacy Plans remain outstanding and governed by the respective terms of such Legacy Plans, but no new awards are to be granted under any of the Legacy Plans. In 2017, Centerra established the Employee Share Purchase Plan ("**ESPP**") in which eligible employees, including NEOs, are entitled to participate by making contributions of up to 10% of their base salaries. The ESPP is intended to (i) motivate eligible employees to acquire Shares in a convenient manner, (ii) encourage employee Share ownership and (iii) align employees' interests with the interests of the shareholders. Unless otherwise determined by the HRC Committee, participation in the ESPP is open to full-time and permanent part-time employees (who have completed three continuous months of employment) of the Company and any of its subsidiaries. Participation in the ESPP is voluntary.

**Purpose and Participation**

The HRC Committee remains focused on aligning pay outcomes with the execution of the Company's overall strategy. The purpose of the LTI Plan is to provide the Company with flexibility to grant various types of awards and to align the interests of participants with the interests of shareholders, while allowing Centerra to remain competitive in the marketplace. In addition, the LTI Plan streamlines the administration of incentive awards, as all Awards granted by the Company to participants are governed by a single plan. Under the LTI Plan, equity-based incentives may be granted to certain of the Company's directors, executive officers, employees and consultants, including Options, share appreciation rights, RSUs, PSUs and DSUs (collectively referred to as "**Awards**"). The ESPP is designed to similarly align the interests of participants with the interests of shareholders by facilitating a simple method for employees to gain a stake in the Company.

**Maximum Number of Shares which may be Issued Pursuant to the Plans**

The LTI Plan is a 'fixed' plan in that, subject to customary adjustment provisions provided for therein (including a subdivision or consolidation of Shares), it provides that the aggregate maximum number of Shares that may be issued, in the aggregate, under the LTI Plan is 7,588,834 Shares. Any Shares subject to an Award which have been exercised or settled in cash or in Shares purchased on the open market will again be available for issuance under the LTI Plan. Further, no Award that can be settled in Shares issued from treasury may be granted if such grant would have the effect of causing the total number of Shares underlying Awards made under the LTI Plan to exceed the above-noted number of Shares reserved for issuance under the LTI Plan. Shares will not be deemed to have been issued pursuant to the LTI Plan with respect to any portion of an Award that is settled in cash. For greater certainty, any Shares reserved for issuance under awards under the Legacy Plans that are settled or forfeited, or that expire in accordance with their terms, will not be added to the reserve of Shares available for issuance under the LTI Plan.

The total number of Shares available for issuance under the ESPP is 5,000,000. Shares purchased under the ESPP may be issued from treasury or acquired on the open market. Under no circumstances may the ESPP, together with all of Centerra's other security-based compensation arrangements, result in: (a) the number of Shares issuable pursuant to the ESPP and/or other units or Options to any one person exceeding 5% of the outstanding Shares; or (b) the number of Shares (i) issuable to insiders at any time or (ii) issued to insiders within any one year period, exceeding 10% of the outstanding Shares.

**Administration**

The HRC Committee is responsible for administering the LTI Plan and ESPP, subject to the oversight of the Board, and may further delegate its responsibilities thereunder to a plan administrator.

**Insider and Non-Employee Director Participation Limit**

The aggregate number of Shares issuable to insiders and their associates at any time under the LTI Plan, the Legacy Plans, the ESPP or any other proposed or established security-based compensation arrangement, will not exceed 10% of the issued and outstanding Shares, and the aggregate number of Shares issued to insiders and their associates within any one-year period under the LTI Plan or any other proposed or established share compensation arrangement will not exceed 10% of the issued and outstanding Shares. In addition, the total annual grant value of equity to any one non-employee director under the LTI Plan and any other proposed or established share compensation arrangement will not exceed $150,000 in the aggregate, of which, no more than $100,000 of value may be comprised of Options or Share Appreciation Rights.

**Dividend Equivalents**

If dividends (other than share dividends) are paid on Shares, dividend equivalents in the form of additional RSUs, PSUs or DSUs (as applicable) may be automatically granted to each participant who holds RSUs, PSUs or DSUs on the record date for

such dividends. Under the ESPP, cash dividends, if any, paid with respect to Shares held in the ESPP accounts will be automatically reinvested in Shares. Such dividend Shares and dividend equivalents will be subject to the same vesting and other conditions applicable to the underlying RSUs, PSUs, DSUs, and ESPP Shares as the case may be.

**Recapitalization**

In the event of any change in the capital structure or any other change affecting the Shares, the HRC Committee will equitably adjust the aggregate number or kind of Shares that may be delivered under the LTI Plan, the number or kind of Shares or other property (including cash) subject to an Award, and the terms and conditions of Awards.

In the event of any other change in the capital structure or business of Centerra or other corporate transaction, the HRC Committee will be entitled, in its sole discretion, to make equitable adjustments in such circumstances in order to maintain the economic rights of the participants in respect of Awards under the LTI Plan.

**Amendments and Termination**

The LTI Plan terminates in accordance with its terms on the 10<sup>th</sup> anniversary of the date it was adopted by the Company. The HRC Committee is entitled to suspend or terminate the LTI Plan at any time, or from time to time amend or revise the terms of the LTI Plan or of any granted Award, provided that no such suspension, termination, amendment or revision will be made, (i) except in compliance with applicable laws and with the prior approval, if required, of the shareholders, the NYSE and/or TSX or any other regulatory body having authority over Centerra, and (ii) if it would adversely alter or impair the rights of any participant, without the consent of the participant except as permitted by the terms of the LTI Plan.

The HRC Committee will be required to obtain shareholder approval to make the following amendments:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• any amendment to increase the maximum number of
Shares issuable pursuant to the LTI Plan, either as a fixed number or fixed percentage of outstanding capital represented by such Shares;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• except for adjustments permitted by the LTI Plan,
any reduction in the exercise price of an Option or any cancellation of an Option and replacement of such Option with an Option with a
lower exercise price (including any adjustment to a Share Appreciation Right having the same effect);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• any amendment which increases the length of the
period after a black-out period during which Awards or any rights pursuant thereto may be exercised;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• any extension of the term of an Award beyond its
original expiry date;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• any increase in the maximum number of Shares that
may be issuable to insiders pursuant to the insider participation limit;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• any amendment that increases the limits previously
imposed on non-employee director participation;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• any amendment which would allow for the transfer
or assignment of Awards, other than for normal estate settlement purposes;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• any amendment which increases the maximum number
of Shares that may be issuable upon exercises of Options issued under the LTI Plan as incentive Options intended to meet the requirements
of Section 422 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• any amendment which modifies the definition of
eligible participant used for purposes of determining eligibility for the grant of any Award under the LTI Plan; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• any amendment to the LTI Plan's amendment
provisions.

Except as specifically provided in a grant agreement approved by the HRC Committee, Awards granted under the LTI Plan will generally not be transferable other than by will or the laws of succession.

**LTI Plan Options and Share Appreciation Rights**

Each Option granted under the LTI Plan will entitle a participant to purchase one Share upon payment of an exercise price, subject to the terms and conditions of the LTI Plan and the applicable grant agreement. A participant may also elect to undertake a "cashless exercise" or a "net exercise" in respect of Options. Share Appreciation Rights may be granted in conjunction with an Option. Options granted with Share Appreciation Rights will allow the participant to surrender the Option and exercise the related Share Appreciation Right. Upon the exercise of a Share Appreciation Right, the participant will be entitled to receive an amount equal to the product of (a) the fair market value of one Share on the date of exercise, minus the exercise price of the applicable Option, multiplied by (b) the number of Shares in respect of which the Share Appreciation Rights have been exercised.

All Options and Share Appreciation Rights granted under the LTI Plan will have an exercise price determined and approved by the HRC Committee at the time of grant, which will not be less than the fair market value of the Shares on the date of the

grant. Subject to the terms of the LTI Plan, the "fair market value" of the Shares as of a given date means the VWAP on the TSX or the NYSE for the five trading days immediately preceding such date.

Subject to any vesting conditions set forth in a participant's grant agreement, an Option and Share Appreciation Right (if applicable) will be exercisable during a period established by the HRC Committee which will not be more than ten years from the date of grant. The LTI Plan provides that the exercise period will automatically be extended if the date on which it is scheduled to terminate will fall during a blackout period. In such cases, the extended exercise period will terminate ten business days after the last day of the blackout period.

**LTI Plan RSUs and PSUs**

RSUs and PSUs granted under the LTI Plan are Awards that entitle a participant holding such Award to receive Shares, cash based on the fair market value of the number of Shares underlying the Award or a combination thereof upon settlement, subject to the terms of the applicable grant agreement.

RSUs granted to executive management generally become vested, if at all, following a period of continuous employment. RSUs granted to non-executive directors generally become vested immediately. PSUs are similar to RSUs, but their vesting is, in whole or in part, conditioned on the attainment of specified performance metrics as may be determined by the HRC Committee. The terms and conditions of grants of RSUs and PSUs, including the quantity, type of Award, grant date, vesting conditions, vesting periods, settlement date and other terms and conditions with respect to these Awards will be set out in the participant's grant agreement.

Non-executive directors may elect to receive a portion of their compensation (as specified by the Board from time to time) in RSUs, subject to the limits and restrictions on non-executive director participation described above. Unlike grants under the Legacy Plans, it is intended that RSUs granted under the LTI Plan to members of senior management will be settled in Shares.

It is intended that all RSUs and PSUs granted to executive management under the LTI Plan will be subject to vesting over a three-year term from the date of grant. The number of PSUs that will vest will vary depending on the Company's achievement over the designated performance period of performance criteria determined by the HRC Committee and set forth in the applicable grant agreement. The performance criteria applicable to PSUs granted under the LTI Plan in 2024 and 2025 will be based on Centerra's total shareholder return percentile ranking relative to the companies included in the performance peer group established by the HRC Committee. See "Compensation Discussion and Analysis – Mid-term and Long-term Incentives".

Subject to the achievement of the applicable vesting conditions, including any performance criteria, the settlement of an RSU or PSU will generally occur on or as soon as reasonably practicable following the vesting date. RSUs and PSUs can be settled, at Centerra's option, in cash or Shares, which Shares can be bought on secondary markets or issued from treasury.

**LTI Plan DSUs**

DSUs granted under the LTI Plan are Awards that evidence the right to receive cash based on the fair market value of a Share. Although DSUs may be available for grant to directors, executive officers, employees and consultants, Centerra currently expects to only grant DSUs as a form of non-executive director compensation, consistent with current practice under the Legacy Plans. See "Report on Director Compensation – Deferred Share Units" above.

The settlement of a DSU will generally occur following a pre-established deferral period, which will be upon or following the participant ceasing to be a director, executive officer, employee or consultant of Centerra, as applicable, subject to satisfaction of any applicable conditions and the applicable grant agreement.

**Treatment of Equity Plans Upon Termination and Change of Control**

The treatment of LTI Plan Awards upon termination and termination following a change of control can be found in the table on page 31 of this Circular.

Under the LTI Plan, in the event of a Change of Control, all outstanding Awards must be replaced by Replacement Awards (as defined below). If all outstanding Awards are not replaced by Replacement Awards, the HRC Committee will have the power, in its sole discretion, to modify the terms of the LTI Plan and/or the Awards granted thereunder, including to cause the power to accelerate vesting (including on the basis of up to the maximum level of achievement of any applicable performance criteria) to assist the participant to tender into any take-over bid or other transaction leading to a Change of Control (including to conditionally settle or to permit the conditional exercise of any Awards).

In the event of a Change of Control, an award will be considered a "Replacement Award" if the HRC Committee (as constituted immediately before the Change of Control) determines, in its sole discretion, that such award meets the following requirements:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• it has a value equal to the value of the Award
intended to be replaced by the Replacement Award (each such replaced Award, a "**Replaced Award**") as of the date of the
Change of Control,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• it relates to publicly traded equity securities
of (i) the Company, (ii) the entity surviving the Company following the Change of Control, or (iii) the parent entity of such surviving
entity,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• it contains substantially identical vesting terms
to those of the Replaced Award (except that for any Replaced Award that is performance-based, the Replacement Award shall be subject solely
to time-based vesting for the remainder of the applicable performance period (or such shorter period as determined by the HRC Committee)
and the level of achievement of the performance criteria in respect of the applicable Performance Period shall be deemed to be the maximum
level of achievement), and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• its other terms and conditions are not less favorable
to the participant than the terms and conditions of the Replaced Award (including the provisions that would apply in the event of a subsequent
Change of Control) as of the date of the Change of Control.

A Replacement Award may take the form of the continuation of the applicable Replaced Award if the requirements above are satisfied.

**Employee Share Purchase Plan**

To participate in the ESPP, an eligible employee authorizes payroll deductions in an amount between 1% and 10% of his or her eligible compensation to be contributed to the ESPP, provided that a participant may not purchase more than 15,000 Shares pursuant to the ESPP in any calendar year. Such contributions will be used to purchase Shares at the end of each quarterly contribution period.

Centerra contributes to a participant's ESPP account an amount equal to 25% of such participant's payroll contributions during a contribution period. On the last trading day of each contribution period, the participant's contributions and the related employer contributions to the ESPP are used to purchase the maximum number of whole Shares that can be purchased either by way of market purchase or issuance from treasury. Where such purchases are satisfied by the Company through the issuance of Shares from treasury, the number of Shares will be determined by dividing the participant's contribution plus the employer contribution by the five-day VWAP of the Shares on the TSX on the award date. No fractional Shares may be awarded. Cash dividends, if any, paid with respect to Shares held in the ESPP accounts will be automatically reinvested in Shares. To date, all Shares issued to participants under the ESPP have been issued from treasury.

Upon termination of employment for any reason, a participant is no longer an eligible employee under the ESPP and will be withdrawn from the ESPP. Upon withdrawal from the ESPP, all payroll deductions from the ESPP that have not been used to purchase Shares will be returned to the participant or his or her executor, administrator or designated beneficiary.

1. The maximum number of securities issuable under each arrangement expressed as a fixed number (together
with the percentage this number represents relative to the weighted average number of issued and outstanding Shares for 2025).

2. The number of outstanding share-settled securities awarded under each arrangement as of December 31, 2025
(together with the percentage this number represents relative to the weighted average number of issued and outstanding Shares for 2025).

3. The number of securities under each arrangement that are available for grant as of December 31, 2025 (together
with the percentage this number represents relative to the weighted average number of issued and outstanding Shares for 2025). Following
approval of the LTI Plan in 2023, no grants were made under the Legacy Option Plan or Legacy RSU Plan.

**Legacy Plans**

**Legacy Option Plan**

Options granted under the Legacy Option Plan ("**Legacy Options**") are non-transferable, other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution. Legacy Options granted under the Legacy Option Plan must be exercised no later than eight years after the date of the grant. Legacy Options granted under the Legacy Option Plan vest as to one-third on each of the first, second and third anniversaries of the grant. The Legacy Option Plan provides for the term of Legacy Options that would otherwise expire during a blackout period to be automatically extended to 10 business days following the end of a blackout period.

The HRC Committee may amend, suspend or terminate the Legacy Option Plan at any time, provided that no amendment, suspension or termination may materially adversely affect any Legacy Options or rights granted to a participant under the Legacy Option Plan without the participant's consent. In addition, the following amendments to the Legacy Option Plan, or to Legacy Options granted thereunder, require shareholder approval: (i) amendments to the number of Shares issuable under the Legacy Option Plan, including an increase to a fixed maximum number of Shares or a change from a fixed maximum number of Shares to a fixed maximum percentage; (ii) amendments that increase the length of the period after a blackout period during which Legacy Options or any rights pursuant thereto may be exercised; (iii) amendments that would reduce the exercise price of a Legacy Option or that would result in the exercise price for any Legacy Option being lower than the fair market value of a Share at the time the Legacy Option is granted, except a reduction in connection with any stock dividend, stock split, combination or exchange of Shares, merger, consolidation, spin-off or other distribution, or other change in the capital of Centerra affecting Shares; (iv) any amendment expanding the categories of eligible person which would have the

potential of broadening or increasing insider participation; (v) amendments to termination provisions providing an extension beyond the original expiry date, or a date beyond a permitted automatic extension in the case of a Legacy Option expiring during a blackout period; (vi) the addition of any other provision which results in participants receiving Shares while no cash consideration is received by Centerra; and (vii) amendments required to be approved by shareholders under applicable law (including, without limitation, the rules, regulations and policies of the TSX).

If a participant in the Legacy Option Plan dies, Legacy Options which have vested will be exercisable for a period of one year by the participant's legal representatives. Legacy Options not vested will expire. Legacy Options granted under the Legacy Option Plan may not be transferred or assigned other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution. Under the Legacy Option Plan, if a participant retires or becomes disabled, unvested Legacy Options will continue to vest and vested Legacy Options will continue to be exercisable in both cases for a period of three years from the date of retirement or disability, and all Legacy Options which are not exercised expire. If a participant ceases to be eligible under the Legacy Option Plan for any other reason, except due to a change of control of Centerra, each Legacy Option held by the participant which is unvested will be cancelled immediately and each Legacy Option that is vested as at the date the participant ceases to be eligible under the Legacy Option Plan may be exercised during the period commencing on such date the participant ceases to be eligible and ending 90 days thereafter, after which time all unexercised Legacy Options held by the participant will expire. In the event of a change of control, all Legacy Options will vest immediately, and the participant may exercise his or her Legacy Options for a period of 90 days (or such longer period set out in any employment contract) after the change of control following which unexercised Legacy Options will expire. The Legacy Option Plan will be terminated by the HRC Committee upon there being no more Legacy Options outstanding thereunder.

**Legacy RSU Plan**

Administration of the Legacy RSU Plan

If a participant under the Legacy RSU Plan dies, the legal representatives of the estate of such participant may elect the redemption date of the Legacy RSUs and in the case of Director RSUs, whether to receive cash or Shares on the redemption. Legacy RSUs granted under the Legacy RSU Plan are not transferable or assignable other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution.

The Legacy RSU Plan is administered by the HRC Committee, subject to the HRC Committee reporting to the Board on all matters requiring approval of the Board. The HRC Committee has the authority, in the case of specified capital reorganizations affecting the Company, to determine appropriate equitable adjustments, if any, to be made under the Legacy RSU Plan, including adjustments to the number of securities which have been authorized for issuance under the Legacy RSU Plan, the number of securities subject to the Legacy RSUs and the number of Legacy RSUs outstanding. The HRC Committee also reserves the right to amend, suspend or terminate the Legacy RSU Plan, in whole or in part, at any time, subject to applicable laws and requirements of any stock exchange or governmental or regulatory body (including any requirement for shareholder approval). The HRC Committee may make certain amendments to the Legacy RSU Plan without seeking shareholder approval, such as housekeeping amendments, amendments necessary to comply with law, amendments to meet changes in tax law, amendments to the vesting provisions of the Legacy RSU Plan or any Legacy RSU, amendments to the termination or early termination provisions of the Legacy RSU Plan or any Legacy RSU and amendments necessary to suspend or terminate the Legacy RSU Plan. However, shareholder approval is required for: (i) amendments to increase the number of Shares issuable under the Legacy RSU Plan, including an increase to a fixed maximum number of Shares or a change from a fixed maximum number of Shares to a fixed maximum percentage; (ii) amendments to remove or exceed the insider participation limits; (iii) amendments extending the term of a Legacy RSU or any rights pursuant thereto held by an insider beyond its original expiry date; (iv) amendments to increase the limits previously imposed on non-employee director participants; (v) amendments which would allow for the transfer or assignment of Legacy RSUs under the Legacy RSU Plan other than for normal estate settlement purposes; (vi) amendments to the amendment provisions of the Legacy RSU Plan; and (vii) amendments required to be approved by shareholders under applicable law (including, without limitation, the rules, regulations and policies of the Toronto Stock Exchange). The Legacy RSU Plan will be terminated by the HRC Committee upon there being no more Legacy RSUs outstanding thereunder.

RSUs Issued to Directors under the Legacy RSU Plan

All Director RSUs awarded to directors under the Legacy RSU Plan vested upon grant and expire one year following the eligible participant's termination date. Non-US directors can elect to redeem their Director RSUs granted under the Legacy RSU Plan at any time after grant.

Under the Legacy RSU Plan, upon redemption, Centerra shall: (A) issue from treasury one Share for each whole vested Director RSU being redeemed; or (B) at the election of the participant, pay to the participant an amount equal to: (i) the number of

vested Director RSUs being redeemed multiplied by (ii) the market value of a Share as at the redemption date minus (iii) applicable taxes; or (C) a combination of (A) and (B), at the election of the participant.

If a director participant in the Legacy RSU Plan ceases to be a director of Centerra (and has no continuing employment relationship with Centerra), that individual will have a period of one year following his or her termination date to redeem Director RSUs.

RSUs Issued to Employees under the Legacy RSU Plan

All Legacy RSUs granted to eligible employees under the Legacy RSU Plan are subject to a two-year vesting period; 50% of the Legacy RSUs granted vest upon the first anniversary of the grant date, and the remaining 50% vest on the second anniversary of grant date. Under the Legacy RSU Plan, upon redemption of a Legacy RSU, Centerra shall issue from treasury one Share for each whole vested Legacy RSU being redeemed.

If an eligible employee's employment with the Company or any of its subsidiaries ceases as a result of death, disability, retirement, termination without just cause or circumstances constituting constructive dismissal, all Legacy RSUs held by such participant under the Legacy RSU Plan shall vest immediately and can be redeemed by the eligible employee within one year from the termination date. If an eligible employee resigns from the Company or one of its subsidiaries or is terminated for just cause, all unvested Legacy RSUs held by such participant under the Legacy RSU Plan shall automatically be terminated and vested Legacy RSUs held by such participant may be redeemed within one year from such resignation or termination.

**Legacy DSU Plan**

While serving as a director, Legacy DSUs cannot be redeemed. Legacy DSUs are redeemed in full by the director no later than December 15 in the calendar year that immediately follows the calendar year of termination of Board service. DSUs of directors who are United States citizens or resident aliens in the United States are redeemed in full on the 30<sup>th</sup> day following separation from service. In all cases, each Legacy DSU represents the right of the director to receive, after termination of all positions with Centerra, the market value of the Legacy DSUs equal to the weighted average of the closing price of Shares on the TSX for the five trading days immediately preceding the payout date. If a dividend is paid on the Shares, each director will be allocated additional Legacy DSUs equal in value to the dividend multiplied by the number of Legacy DSUs held by the director.

**REPORT ON CORPORATE GOVERNANCE**

The Board and management believe that sound and effective corporate governance is essential to Centerra's performance. Centerra has adopted certain practices and procedures to ensure that effective corporate governance practices are followed and that the Board functions independently of management. In addition, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board reviews Centerra's corporate governance practices and procedures on a regular basis to ensure that they address significant issues of corporate governance.

The following statement sets out a description of Centerra's corporate governance practices as approved by the Board and in accordance with the requirements set forth in National Instrument 58-101 — *Disclosure of Corporate Governance Practices* ("**NI 58-101**").

**Board Mandate**

The Board supervises the conduct of the affairs of the Company directly and through its committees. In so doing, the Board acts in the best interests of the Company, while recognizing the importance of the enhancement of both short and longer-term value. In carrying out its responsibilities, the Board appoints the executive officers of the Company and meets with them on a regular basis to receive and consider reports on the Company's business. The Board holds regularly scheduled meetings, with additional meetings being held as required to consider particular issues or conduct specific reviews between regularly scheduled meetings. Between January 1, 2025 and December 31, 2025, the Board held 9 meetings.

The fundamental responsibility of the Board is to supervise the management of Centerra's business and affairs. Centerra's Board promotes fair reporting, including financial reporting, to shareholders and other interested persons as well as ethical and legal corporate conduct through an appropriate system of corporate governance, internal controls and disclosure controls.

The Board is, among other matters, responsible for the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• selection, appointment, evaluation and setting
compensation of, and, if necessary, termination of the CEO;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• oversight of CEO's selection, appointment,
evaluation and termination of other executive officers;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• satisfying itself as to the integrity of the CEO
and other senior officers of the Company and as to the culture of integrity throughout the Company;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• adoption of a strategic planning process and approval
of strategic plans;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• ensuring risk management policies and procedures
are in place and appropriate;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• overseeing policies and procedures regarding the
integrity of financial reporting and information management;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• oversight of estimates of Centerra's mineral
reserves by management;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• oversight of human resources policies;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• oversight of communications policies;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• oversight of health, safety and environmental
policies;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• oversight of disclosure policies and procedures;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• corporate governance;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• oversight of environmental and social governance;
and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• certain other matters which may not be delegated
by the Board under applicable corporate law.

The Board has adopted a formal written mandate which clarifies these responsibilities and is complemented by the written mandates of each of its standing committees. The Board and committee mandates are reviewed at least annually by the Board. The full text of the Board mandate is set out in Appendix A. A copy of the mandates for the Board and each standing committee can also be found on Centerra's website at <u>www.centerragold.com</u>.

Directors frequently (in person, by phone or virtually) meet individually or in groups with senior management in work sessions to obtain further insight and provide guidance into the operations of the Company and its subsidiaries and are involved on a regular basis in discussions with management. Each Board committee may engage outside advisors at the expense of the Company. Individual directors are also free to consult with members of senior management whenever required and to engage outside advisors, at the expense of the Company, with the authorization of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee.

**Strategic Planning**

The Board works with management in developing the overall business strategy of the Company and reviews the annual business plans for achieving its objectives, which sets the basis for creating annual objectives for the CEO. The Board receives regular updates from management regarding management's implementation of the business strategy.

Along with those matters which must by law be approved by the Board, key strategic decisions are also submitted by management to the Board for approval or discussion. In addition to approving specific corporate actions, the Board reviews and approves the reports issued to shareholders, including annual and interim financial statements, management information circulars, management's discussion and analysis and related press releases.

**Overseeing the Chief Executive Officer**

The CEO is appointed by the Board and is responsible for managing Centerra's affairs. The CEO's key responsibilities include articulating the vision for the Company, focusing on creating value for shareholders, and developing and implementing a strategic plan that is consistent with the corporate vision.

Annually, the Board sets objectives for the CEO which align with the Company's annual business plan and strategic plan. These objectives include both specific quantifiable goals and general goals that are qualitative and not driven by a predetermined mathematical formula. The Board conducts a formal review of the CEO's performance once per year.

The CEO is accountable to the Board and the Board committees. The Chair of the Board meets frequently with the CEO to discuss the affairs of the Company and to provide guidance and feedback. Throughout the year, on an ad hoc basis, the CEO also interacts with individual Board members to discuss matters.

The Board has established clear limits of authority for the CEO. These are described in Centerra's delegation of financial authority policy.

The Board receives regular reports from the CEO on Centerra's operating activities as well as timely reports on certain non-operational matters, including risk management, finance, safety, health, environment, corporate social responsibility, legal, government relations, business development, human resources, corporate governance, investor relations, and insurance matters.

**The Chair of the Board**

The Board appointed Mr. Wright as Chair of the Board, effective January 1, 2026. Mr. Wright has served as an independent member of the Board since May 1, 2020.

Pursuant to the Board mandate, the Chair is principally responsible for overseeing the operations and affairs of the Board. The Chair's responsibilities include leading, managing and organizing the Board, consistent with the approach to corporate governance adopted by the Board from time to time; confirming that appropriate procedures are in place to allow the Board to work effectively and efficiently and to function independent from management; acting as a liaison between the Board and senior management; encouraging effective communication between the Board and the CEO, and working with the CEO, the Chair of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and the Corporate Secretary to further the creation of a healthy governance culture within Centerra.

**Position Descriptions of Chair of the Board and Chief Executive Officer**

The Board has adopted a position description for the Chair of the Board, which sets out the duties and responsibilities for such role. This position description is reviewed by the Board annually. The position description for the Chair of the Board is contained in the Board mandate. The Board mandate also provides that the chair of each committee is responsible for determining the agenda, and the frequency and conduct of the meetings of that committee.

The Board has also adopted a position description for Centerra's CEO, which sets out the duties and responsibilities of the CEO. This position description is reviewed by the Board annually.

**Independence of Board Members**

Centerra has a total of eight board members which includes the CEO and seven independent Board members (as further described below).

Centerra's Board has assessed the independence of each director. In determining independence, the Board examined and relied on the definition of independence in NI 58-101. After considering a wide variety of factors and information disclosed by each director, the Board has determined that a majority of the current directors (seven of eight) are independent.

The Board has determined that Mr. Tomory is not independent because, as President and CEO of the Company, he is a member of management.

To ensure that the Board is able to discharge its responsibilities independently of management, the independent director(s) have regularly scheduled opportunities to meet separately from management and the non-independent directors following each meeting of the Board. In 2025, the independent members of the Board met 8 times, during formal Board meetings.

**Interlocking Directorships**

An "interlock" occurs where two or more Board members also serve together as board members of another public company. Currently, no members of the Board have any interlocking directorships and, as such, the Company has not found a need to adopt a formal policy relating to interlocking directorships.

**Statutory Majority Voting and Advance Notice Nominations**

In accordance with the CBCA, the Company's governing statute, for all uncontested shareholder meetings, each director nominee will be elected at the Meeting only if the number of votes cast "for" the nominee represents a majority of the total votes cast "for" and "against" them. However, under the CBCA majority voting rules, if an incumbent director is not elected by a majority of votes at the Meeting, the incumbent director will be permitted to continue in office until the earlier of (i) the 90<sup>th</sup> day after the Meeting and (ii) the day on which their successor is appointed or elected.

In addition to the requirements under the CBCA, the Company's by-laws require that any shareholder seeking to nominate a director at a shareholder meeting must provide advance notice of the individual(s) the shareholder intends to nominate as well as certain other prescribed information. The by-laws provide for a reasonable time frame in which to notify the Company of an intention to nominate directors and require a level of disclosure of information concerning proposed nominees that the Company would be required to include in a management information circular in respect of the election of directors. This procedure affords the Board the opportunity to evaluate the qualifications of all director nominees and their suitability as directors while providing shareholders with adequate notice and information regarding director nominations to be considered at a meeting.

In the case of an annual meeting of shareholders, notice to the Company must be received not later than 30 and not earlier than 65 days prior to the date of the annual meeting; provided, however, that if the first public announcement of the date of the annual meeting is less than 50 days prior to the meeting, notice must be received not later than the 10<sup>th</sup> day following such public announcement. In the case of a special meeting (which is not also an annual meeting) of shareholders called for any purposes which includes the election of directors, notice to the Company must be received not later than the close of business on the 15<sup>th</sup> day following the day on which the first public announcement of the date of the special meeting is made.

**Committees of the Board of Directors**

Each standing committee of the Board operates under a written mandate/charter that sets out its responsibilities and duties, qualifications for membership, procedures for committee member removal and appointment and reporting to the Board. The charters are reviewed annually by the relevant committee and any changes are recommended to the Board. In 2025, as part of an ongoing Board refresh program, the composition of each Committee was refreshed. Ms. Karen David-Green and Mr. MacDougall were appointed as members of the Audit Committee; Ms. Lipson was appointed as Chair of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee; Ms. Lipson and Mr. Parrett were appointed as members of the Human Resources and Compensation Committee; and Ms. Karen David-Green was appointed as a member of the Technical and Corporate Responsibility Committee. Mr. Wright ceased to be a member of the Human Resources and Compensation Committee.

Below is a summary of the current composition of the Board committees and a brief description of the responsibilities of each committee and its members. Charters for each standing Board committee can be found on Centerra's website.

**Review of Related Party Transactions**

The Company's Code of Ethics provides that all company representatives avoid any relationship or activity that might create, or appear to create, a conflict between their personal business interests or other types of personal interests, and the interests of the Company. In addition, company representatives are required to disclose any actual or possible conflicts of interest.

The Audit Committee, in conjunction with the Board, has oversight of related-party transactions. As part of its mandate, the Audit Committee will review and pre-approve any related-party transaction or situation involving (i) a director, (ii) a senior officer, or (iii) an affiliate's potential or actual conflict of interest that are not required to be dealt with by an "independent committee" pursuant to securities law rules, other than routine transactions and situations arising in the ordinary course of business, consistent with past practice before they are sent to the Board for approval. This includes:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Annually, each director and executive officer
of the Company completes a Director and Officer Questionnaire that requires disclosure of any transaction, arrangement or relationship
with us during the last fiscal year in which the director or executive officer, or any member of their immediate family, had a direct
or indirect material interest.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Each director and executive officer are expected
to promptly report to the Audit Committee any direct or indirect interest that they or an immediate family member had, has, or may have
in a transaction in which the Company participates.

There were no related-party transactions reported in 2025.

**Overseeing and Managing Risk**

The Board is responsible for overseeing Centerra's policies and processes to identify the Company's principal business risks and to confirm that systems are in place to mitigate these risks where prudent to do so. Risk oversight is supervised by the Board as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Technical and Corporate Responsibility Committee**:
The Technical and Corporate Responsibility Committee oversees significant technical and operational risks relating to the Company's
activities including production, operations, acquisition and divestment opportunities and development and exploration plans, the preparation
and disclosure of resource and reserve estimates for the Company's properties; and overseeing polices, practices and systems for
effective management of corporate responsibility matters, including safety, health, environment and social performance.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Audit Committee**: The Audit Committee monitors
financial related risks, including risks relating to internal controls over financial reporting, the delegation of financial authority,

disclosure controls and procedures, code of ethics and international business conduct (anti-corruption) policies.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Human Resources and Compensation Committee**:
The HRC Committee oversees and manages compensation related risks and retention and succession risks.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee**:
The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee oversees risks related to corporate governance matters.

**Cybersecurity, Artificial Intelligence and Information Security Risk**

The Board, through the Audit Committee, oversees information technology ("**IT**"), AI, security risks. The Audit Committee receives IT and cybersecurity risk updates from management on material cybersecurity matters including the identification of IT risks and appropriate mitigation action plans to protect the confidentiality and integrity of information at Centerra. Centerra manages IT security risk through a centralized risk-based methodology with the assistance of a team of external experts that work alongside Centerra's internal IT team. The internal IT team is comprised of IT professionals, some with cybersecurity credentials, that are skilled at managing IT security risk processes and operations. Centerra also has cyber risk insurance which responds to third- and first-party liability in the event of a cyber incident, and which affords incident response assistance and support.

Centerra has not experienced a material information security breach and periodically reviews its needs with respect to cybersecurity risk insurance. However, the Company acknowledges that the cybersecurity space is evolving quickly and has therefore taken the following steps to mitigate cybersecurity incidents:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Provided annual cybersecurity education including
regular phishing simulations (including deepfake voice campaigns), cybersecurity training and awareness campaigns throughout the year.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Utilized leading cybersecurity vendors for continuous
system monitoring and managed endpoint security and to assist the Company in the event of a cybersecurity event with incident response
services.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Applied a multi-layered approach with intentional
redundancies and additional cybersecurity software to increase protection of valuable data and information.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Completed a cybersecurity tabletop exercise with
a reputable third-party vendor to assess the Company's response to a potential incident. The results and lessons of the tabletop
exercise were reviewed with the Audit Committee and incorporated into the Company's Cybersecurity Incident Response and Communications
Plan created in 2024. In 2025, the same third-party vendor conducted a technically focused cybersecurity tabletop exercise to assess the
quality of response by the internal global information technology team members to a cyber incident. The exercise was successful with learnings
documented and changes made to the Company's response plan as necessary.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Completed operational technology cybersecurity
assessments at our largest sites using a third-party vendor to identify and mitigate any potential risks. The assessments showed no critical
or significant risks.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Developed an AI Responsible Use Framework to provide
clear guidelines for the responsible use of external generative AI tools while educating and raising awareness on the benefits and risks
of AI and how the Company can safeguard sensitive information while using AI technology.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Collaborated with peers to share knowledge in
the areas of threat intelligence, cyber trends, vulnerabilities, incident response and drills including membership with the Information
Systems Audit and Control Association.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Upskilled the internal IT team to include certified
cybersecurity professionals.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Ensured Centerra has the appropriate cybersecurity
insurance coverage in place.

In the next 12 months, the Company expects to advance the following items:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Continued training, education and awareness campaigns
for possible cyber security incidents with employees, management and Directors.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Completing an operational technology assessment
at the Company's smaller sites to identify and mitigate any new potential risks.

**Centerra Diversity, Equity & Inclusion**

**Directors and Executive Officers**

Centerra recognizes the importance to the Company of having a leadership group (including directors and executive officers of the Company) comprised of highly talented, experienced and dedicated individuals with a diverse mix of experience, skills and background collectively reflecting the strategic needs of the business. The Company also recognizes that diversity is critical to the future success of Centerra and will strive to enhance its focus on the advancement of underrepresented groups throughout the Company and to foster a culture of inclusivity, equity and accessibility. Centerra has a Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Policy that defines policies and procedures to promote and maintain diversity on its Board of Directors and among its executive officers establishing mechanisms to both measure diversity and the Company's progress towards achieving its diversity goals.

The Company strives to maintain overall diverse representation among the leadership group and is targeting a minimum of 30% women representation in both the non-executive director and executive officer groups. As of March 4, 2026, women represent 43% and 29% women in the director group and officer group, respectively, placing the Company very close to its stated objective.

While diversity is an important and valuable consideration in assessing potential candidates for appointment to the leadership group, all appointments will continue to be made on merit in the context of knowledge, experience, skills and background of each individual candidate in light of the needs of the Board and the Company. When assessing Board and executive officer composition or identifying candidates to nominate for election to the Board or for appointment as an executive officer, the Company will consider the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• candidates who are highly qualified based on business
expertise, functional experience, knowledge, personal skills and character against objective criteria, having due regard to the benefits
of diversity, the needs of the Board, the Company's current and future plans and objectives, as well as anticipated regulatory developments;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• candidates that represent diverse groups, including
with regard to gender, ethnicity, age, national origin, persons with disabilities, Indigenous peoples, visible minorities, and sexual
orientation;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• our commitment to the level of representation
of women on the Board and in senior management positions;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• engaging qualified independent external advisors
to assist the Board and management in conducting its search for candidates as required. To the extent practical, search protocols will
include a robust and rigorous process, using a committee and/or professional search firm specifically directed to include a diverse pool
of candidates, including women and members of the designated groups or other underrepresented groups; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the Board maintains an ongoing list of potential
director candidates and the Company maintains a list of potential executive officer candidates within its successor pool of talent. The
Board and the Company ensures that such lists include members of the designated and other underrepresented groups and, in particular,
women candidates.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee periodically reports to the Board on efforts regarding diversity with respect to Board members and the HRC Committee periodically reports to the Board on such efforts with respect to the appointment of executive officers and reports on the implementation of the Respect Connects Program (previously know as Inclusion, Diversity, Equity and Accessibility Program).

**Centerra's Respect Connects Program**

The Company recognizes that a culture of inclusion, diversity, equity and accessibility is imperative for long-term success and that the journey begins at the top. In 2025, Centerra rebranded its Inclusion, Diversity, Equity and Accessibility Program as "Respect Connects", a program reflecting our core belief that respect is fundamental to our culture and to how we engage with employees, communities, and other stakeholders. The program is anchored in three guiding pillars - Respect for All, Accountability for All, and Development for All, which collectively reinforce our commitment to fostering a diverse, inclusive, responsible, and supportive workplace for everyone. To that end, the Company maintains a Global Respect Connects Executive Council, jointly sponsored, and chaired by the President and CEO and the Executive Vice President, People, Technology and Supply Chain with representation from senior management. The Global Respect Connects Executive Council is responsible for the continued development of the global strategy, alignment of regional strategies, decisions on various initiatives, and oversight of the successful implementation of the strategy. The Global Respect Connects Executive Council is responsible for reporting back on progress to the senior management team and to the Board. In 2025, the Company continued progressing its multi year strategy and initiatives including but not limited to the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Participation in the International Women in Resource
Mentoring Program as a silver sponsor of International Women in Mining for the fifth year in a row.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Administration of a global Employee Engagement
Survey, focused on understanding and improving the employee experience across Centerra.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Revision and communication of a refreshed Respect
Connects strategy with new initiatives focused on respect, accountability and development for all employees.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Expansion of a global 360-Feedback Program that
incorporates competencies on inclusive leadership behaviors providing constructive feedback for leaders at Centerra.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Development & implementation of a substance
abuse treatment support program at Mount Milligan.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Continued mental health awareness training at
multiple sites across the organization.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Various initiatives focused on raising awareness,
increasing representation and enhancing overall relationships with our Indigenous employees and partners.

As of March 4, 2026, the number of members of the Company's leadership group who self-identify as members of the following designated groups are as follows**:** 

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| **Designated Group** | **Number of Non-Executive Board Members** | **Number of**<br> **Executive**<br> **Officers<sup>(1)</sup>** | **Total Non-Executive Board Members and Executive Officers** |

The Board's mandate includes a mandatory retirement provision that allows directors to serve on the Board until the annual meeting of the Company's shareholders following their 75<sup>th</sup> birthday and that directors may not be re-elected after reaching age 75, unless this requirement is waived by the Board or the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee for a valid reason.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee annually reviews director tenure, Board performance as a whole, individual director performance and self-assessed skills to ensure an appropriate degree of turnover while maintaining Board continuity and experience. Mr. Perron, who has been a director for over 9 years and is not standing for re-election at this Meeting. Should all of the director nominees be elected at the Meeting, the average Board tenure would be 3.6 years, with a range of 0-12 years of service.

The Board has concluded that the Board's existing renewal mechanism continues to result in a good mix of directors with experience in the Company's ongoing matters as well as new directors who can bring fresh voices to the Board's discussion. Accordingly, the Board has not adopted term limits for directors, but the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and the Board consider directors' tenure on the Board as part of its annual process of nominating directors.

**Assessment Process**

Annually, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee reviews the effectiveness of the Board, its committees and the Chair of the Board through the use of a confidential self-assessment questionnaire completed by each director and executive officer. In the assessment, directors are also asked to comment on the performance of their peer directors. The results of the surveys are subsequently discussed by the Board.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, through questionnaires and interviews, assesses the operation of the Board and the committees, the adequacy of information given to directors, communication between the Board and management, the effectiveness of the processes of the Board and committees, and the effectiveness of the Board and individual directors. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee recommends to the Board any changes needed to enhance performance based upon this assessment process.

**Nomination of Directors and Board Size**

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is responsible for assessing the need for new directors, and the preferred experience and qualifications of new directors, taking into consideration the independence, age, skills and experience required for the effective conduct of the Company's business. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is comprised entirely of independent directors.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee recommends candidates for Board membership and Board members for re-nomination. Recommendations are based upon character, integrity, judgment, business experience, record of achievement and any other skills or talents that would enhance the Board and overall management of the business and affairs of the Company as well as the criteria laid out in applicable policies.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee maintains a schedule of the anticipated tenure of current directors, and the needs of the Board as a whole. Candidates are considered in light of the Board's current and anticipated needs. Board members complete annual skills and experience self-assessments, which are reviewed by the committee to assist in placing Board members on committees where their expertise can best be utilized and also to identify skills and experience gaps important in identifying any new nominees to the Board.

The Board is of the view that its optimal size for effective decision-making and committee work is between 7-11 members.

**Board Education Opportunities**

Centerra provides new directors with orientation materials describing the business of the Company, its corporate governance structure and related policies and information. Centerra's CEO, CFO and other senior executives provide new directors with detailed briefings on Company strategy, operations, risk profile, business development, legal, financial, exploration, human resources and investor and government relations matters.

Board members are encouraged to visit the Company's main operating sites and other properties and regularly do so. In 2025, the Board visited the Kemess Project and the Endako Mine Project in British Columbia, Canada, as well as the Öksüt Mine in Türkiye; additionally, certain Board members visited the Mount Milligan Mine in British Columbia, Canada.

Continuing education is provided by management through presentations to the Board and committees when any key business decisions are sought. Directors are briefed regularly on strategic issues affecting the Company. Board members are also

encouraged to attend conferences or seminars at Centerra's expense. Such conferences or seminars can deal with any subject matter that is applicable to the Board member's role on the Board or its committees or to increase the members' knowledge of the Company's business. Specific continuing education completed in 2025 is listed in the following table.

**Codes of Ethics**

Centerra's Board expects all of Centerra's directors, executive officers and employees to conduct themselves in accordance with the highest ethical standards.

Centerra's Board has established a Code of Ethics for employees, which addresses, among other things, avoidance of conflicts of interest, protection of confidential information, compliance with applicable laws, rules and regulations, adherence to good disclosure practices, and procedures for employees and third parties to report concerns with respect to accounting and auditing matters. Employees with such concerns may report their concerns directly or, if they so wish, in a confidential or

anonymous manner to: (i) the Executive Vice President, Legal and Public Affairs of the Company, (ii) the Chair of the Audit Committee, or (iii) a 24 hours-a-day compliance hotline, a service which is operated by a third party and is available in the local languages spoken where the Company's operating subsidiaries are located. As set out in the Code of Ethics, an employee who, in good faith, reports a concern is protected from reprisal, such as dismissal, demotion, suspension, threats, harassment or discrimination.

The Board has also adopted a Code of Ethics for directors, which sets out the ethical standards that apply to directors in the exercise of their duties. Directors are required to promptly report all actual, potential or perceived conflicts of interest to the Corporate Secretary, who is in turn required to bring such conflicts to the attention of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. Directors may not participate in discussions, deliberations or decision-making in which they have a conflict of interest.

All directors and employees of Centerra are required to sign an annual compliance certificate relating to the Code of Ethics and, in addition, employees undergo training on the Code of Ethics. The Audit Committee receives an annual compliance report for employees, and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee receives an annual report on directors' compliance. Issues arising between annual reporting are brought to the attention of the appropriate committee.

Copies of the Codes of Ethics for employees and directors can be found on Centerra's website at <u>www.centerragold.com</u> and are also available in print upon request.

**Disclosure and Insider Trading Policy**

Centerra's Board has adopted and periodically reviews and updates Centerra's written corporate disclosure and insider trading policy. The policy addresses the following matters:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• establishes a process for the disclosure of material
information;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• establishes a process for reviewing news releases,
corporate documents and public oral statements before they are issued;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• sets out the obligations of Centerra's directors,
executive officers and other employees to preserve the confidentiality of undisclosed material information;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• sets out the prohibitions applicable to Centerra's
directors, executive officers and other employees with respect to illegal insider trading and tipping; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• prohibits directors and employees of Centerra
from hedging the value of any equity-based awards or Shares.

**Investor Communications and Feedback**

The Company has procedures in place to effectively communicate with its stakeholders, including its investors, employees and the general public. The fundamental objective of these procedures is to ensure an open, accessible and timely exchange of information concerning the business, affairs and performance of the Company. This includes quarterly conference calls in conjunction with the release of the Company's financial results, as well as regular presentations to, or meetings with, analysts, institutional and retail shareholders, and potential investors. Through the Company's website, investors and other stakeholders may access information provided by the Company to the investment community. The Company has a dedicated investor relations department, which works closely with members of the investment community, including institutional and retail investors. In addition, the Company has procedures in place to ensure that inquiries or other communications from investors are answered by an appropriate person in the Company.

During 2025, the President and CEO, the investor relations department and other members of senior management, including the CFO and COO, held over 520 meetings with investors, attended 16 investor conferences, completed 14 days of non-deal roadshows in various cities in North America and Europe, and presented to 3 institutional equity sales desks at various brokers.

The Board has a Shareholder Engagement Policy to facilitate transparent and direct engagement between members of the Board and Centerra's shareholders, shareholder organizations and governance groups, while complying with the Company's internal policies and applicable laws. A copy of the Shareholder Engagement Policy can be found on Centerra's website at <u>https://www.centerragold.com/corporate/shareholder-documents</u> and is also available in print upon request.

As part of this commitment to shareholder engagement, the Board instituted a proactive outreach program in 2024 to enhance dialogue with the Company's largest shareholders on governance matters, which was continued in 2025. Through this initiative, members of the Board conducted one-on-one meetings with Centerra's top shareholders, providing an open forum to discuss corporate governance practices, board composition, executive compensation, and other key topics. This continued outreach underscores the Company's commitment to transparency, meaningful shareholder engagement, and continuous improvement in governance practices, ensuring that investor perspectives are carefully considered in the Board's decision-making processes.

Centerra's Board members, including the Chair of the Board, welcome communications and feedback from the Company's shareholders or other stakeholders. Interested parties may contact the Board or Centerra's independent directors as a group by writing to them c/o Chair of the Board, Centerra Gold Inc., 1 University Avenue, Suite 1800, Toronto, Ontario, Canada M5J 2P1.

**DIRECTORS' AND OFFICERS' LIABILITY INSURANCE AND INDEMNIFICATION**

Centerra's directors and executive officers are covered under a directors' and officers' liability insurance program. The aggregate limit of liability applicable to those insured directors and executive officers under the program policies is US$120 million, inclusive of defense costs. There is no retention (deductible) for executive officers or directors under these policies for non-indemnifiable claims made against them for a wrongful act. Where Centerra or a subsidiary has indemnified a director or executive officer, the program provides reimbursement coverage for losses over a retention (deductible) of US$2.5 million. The premium paid by Centerra for 2025 was US$1.38 million.

Centerra's by-laws also provide for the indemnification of its directors and executive officers from and against liability and costs in respect of any action or suit against them in connection with the execution of their duties of office, subject to certain limitations. Centerra has also entered into agreements with each of its directors and executive officers providing for indemnification and related matters.

**INTERESTS OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS IN MATTERS TO BE ACTED UPON**

No director or executive officer of Centerra, nor any proposed nominee for election as a director of Centerra, or any associate or affiliate of any one of them, has any material interest, direct or indirect, by way of beneficial ownership of securities or otherwise, in any matter to be acted on at the Meeting, other than the election of directors.

**APPENDIX A**

**CENTERRA GOLD INC.**

**(the "Corporation")**

**BOARD MANDATE**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.** **GENERAL** 

The Board of Directors of the Corporation (the "**Board**") believes that sound corporate governance practices are essential to the well-being of the Corporation and the promotion and protection of its shareholders' interests as owners of the Corporation. The Board oversees the functioning of the Corporation's governance system, in part, through the work of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee.

The Board has adopted this mandate to assist it in supervising the management of the business and affairs of the Corporation as required under applicable legislation and stock exchange rules.

The Board will revise this mandate from time to time based on its assessment of the Corporation's needs, legal and regulatory developments and best practices. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will review this mandate annually, or more often if warranted, and recommend to the Board such changes as it deems necessary and appropriate.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**2.** **THE BOARD'S RESPONSIBILITIES** 

The fundamental responsibility of the Board is to supervise the management of the business and affairs of the Corporation with a view to the best interests of the Corporation, discharging the duties of care and loyalty, free from conflicts of interest. The Board discharges this responsibility by developing and determining policy by which the business and affairs of the Corporation are to be managed and by overseeing management of the Corporation. The Board promotes fair reporting, including financial reporting, to shareholders of the Corporation and other interested persons as well as ethical and legal corporate conduct through an appropriate system of corporate governance, internal controls and disclosure controls.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**3.** **DIRECTORS' RESPONSIBILITIES** 

The primary responsibility of individual directors is to act in good faith and to exercise their business judgment in what they reasonably believe to be the best interests of the Corporation. In order to fulfill this responsibility, each director is expected to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• develop and maintain a thorough understanding
of the markets in which the Corporation conducts business, its strategy and business operations and its financial position and performance;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• diligently prepare for each meeting, including
reviewing all meeting materials distributed in advance;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• actively and constructively participate in each
meeting, including seeking clarification from management and outside advisors where necessary to fully understand the issues under consideration;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• engage in continuing education programs for directors,
as appropriate;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• attend all meetings of the Board and any committee
of which he or she is a member; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• conducting themselves in accordance with all policies
of the Corporation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**4.** **BOARD COMPOSITION** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(a) Board Membership Criteria**

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is responsible for establishing the competencies and skills that the Board considers to be necessary for the Board as a whole to possess; the competencies and skills that the Board considers each existing director to possess; and the competencies and skills each new nominee will bring to the Board. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee identifies candidates for Board membership based on their character, integrity, judgment and record of achievement and any skills and talents they possess which would add to the Board's decision-making process and enhance the overall management of the business and affairs of the Corporation. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will also take into consideration the representation of women and other minority groups in the director identification and selection process in accordance with the Corporation's diversity, equity and inclusion policy.

Directors who change their principal occupation are expected to advise the Chair (as defined below) and the chair of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and, if determined appropriate by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, resign from the Board.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(b) Director Independence**

The Board believes that, except during periods of temporary vacancies, the majority of its members should be independent. For the purposes of this mandate, "independent" means the standard of independence applicable to audit committee members as set out in National Instrument 52-110 – Audit Committees, as amended from time to time.

In all cases, the determination of whether a director is independent must be made by the Board in accordance with applicable securities laws and stock exchange rules. Generally, an independent director means a director who has no direct or indirect material relationship with the Corporation. For these purposes, "material relationship" means a relationship which could, in the view of the Board, reasonably interfere with the exercise of a member's independent judgment.

In making a determination regarding a director's independence, the Board will consider all relevant facts and circumstances, including the director's commercial, industrial, banking, consulting, legal, accounting, charitable and familial relationships, and such other criteria as the Board may determine from time to time.

The Board will review the independence of all directors on an annual basis and will disclose its determinations annually. To facilitate this review, directors will be asked to provide the Board with full information regarding their business and other relationships with the Corporation and its affiliates and with senior management and their affiliates. Directors have an ongoing obligation to inform the Chair and the chair of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of any material changes in their circumstances or relationships which may affect the Board's determination as to their independence.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(c) Board Size**

The Board is of the view that a size of between 8 and 11 members is conducive to effective decision-making and committee work.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(d) Retirement**

Directors may serve on the Board until the annual meeting of the Corporation next following their 75th birthday, and may not be re-elected after reaching age 75, unless this requirement has been waived by the Board, or the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, for a valid reason.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(e) Term**

All directors are elected at the annual meeting of shareholders of the Corporation for a term of one year.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(f) Board Succession**

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is responsible for maintaining a Board succession plan that is responsive to the Corporation's needs and the interests of its shareholders.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(g) Service on Other Boards** 

The Board does not believe that its members should be prohibited from serving on the boards of other public companies so long as these commitments do not materially interfere with and are not incompatible with their ability to fulfill their duties as a member of the Board. Directors must advise the Chair in advance of accepting an invitation to serve on the board of another public company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**5.** **BOARD DUTIES** 

In fulfilling its responsibilities, the Board is, among other matters, responsible for the following matters:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**6.** **DELEGATION TO MANAGEMENT** 

The Board may delegate by resolution, from time to time, financial authority to the Chief Executive Officer (who may sub-delegate such authority to others within the Corporation as appropriate).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**7.** **CHAIR** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(a)** **Appointment** 

The Board will each year appoint from among its members a chair of the Board of Directors (the "**Chair**").

Board or committee meetings may be held at any time without notice if all of the directors or committee members have waived or are deemed to have waived notice of the meeting. A director participating in a Board or committee meeting is deemed to have waived notice of the meeting.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(c) Agenda**

The Chair establishes the agenda for each Board meeting in consultation with the Corporate Secretary and the Chief Executive Officer. Any director may propose the inclusion of items on the agenda, request the presence of or a report by any member of senior management, or at any Board meeting raise subjects that are not on the agenda for that meeting.

Committee chairs establish the agenda for each committee meeting. Any committee member may propose the inclusion of items on the agenda, request the presence of or a report by any member of senior management, or at any committee meeting raise subjects that are not on the agenda for the meeting.

The Corporate Secretary distributes an agenda and meeting materials in advance of each Board or committee meeting to allow Board or committee members, as the case may be, sufficient time to review and consider the matters to be discussed.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(d) Non-Management Sessions**

Non-management directors meet separately at every Board meeting without management present. The Chair informs management of the substance of these meetings to the extent that action is required by them.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(e) Distribution of Information**

The Board regularly receives reports on the financial results and operating activities of the Corporation, as well as periodic reports on certain non-operational matters, including, corporate governance, insurance, pensions and treasury matters and safety, health and environmental matters.

The Corporate Secretary keeps minutes of the proceedings of the Board and each of its committees, and circulates copies of the minutes to each Board or committee member, as the case may be, on a timely basis.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**12.** **DIRECTOR COMPENSATION** 

The Board believes that compensation for directors should be competitive with the compensation paid to directors of comparable companies. The Human Resources and Compensation Committee reviews directors' compensation at least bi-annually with this criterion in mind and makes recommendations to the Board.

Directors who are employees of the Corporation or any of its affiliates do not receive any compensation for service as directors.

To further align the interests of directors with those of other shareholders, directors are paid a portion of their fees in deferred share units and restricted share units.

Directors are reimbursed by the Corporation for reasonable travel expenses incurred in connection with their duties as directors.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**13.** **SHARE OWNERSHIP REQUIREMENTS** 

Directors are required, within five years of their initial appointment to the Board, to acquire and hold deferred share units, restricted share units, common shares or any other equity-based awards of the Corporation designated by the Board from time to time, with a value equal to at least three times the amount of their annual retainer for service as a director (excluding travel, meeting and committee chair fees) such value to be determined at the greater of cost or market value of such securities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**14.** **DIRECTOR ORIENTATION AND CONTINUING EDUCATION** 

New directors receive orientation materials describing the Corporation's business and its corporate governance policies and procedures. New directors also have meetings with the Chair, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is responsible for confirming that procedures are in place and resources are made available to provide directors with appropriate continuing education opportunities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**15.** **BOARD ACCESS TO MANAGEMENT AND ADVISORS** 

Directors have access to members of management and are encouraged to raise any questions or concerns directly with management. The Board and its committees may invite any member of management, outside advisor or other person to attend any of their meetings.

The Board and any of its committees may retain an outside advisor at the expense of the Corporation at any time and have the authority to determine the advisor's fees and other retention terms. Individual directors may retain an outside advisor at the expense of the Corporation with the approval of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**16.** **PERFORMANCE ASSESSMENT OF THE BOARD AND ITS COMMITTEES** 

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee annually reviews the effectiveness of the Board in fulfilling its responsibilities and duties as set out in these guidelines.

In addition, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee annually reviews the effectiveness of all Board committees in fulfilling their responsibilities and duties as set out in their charter and in a manner consistent with these guidelines.

In coordination with the Chair, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee evaluates individual directors to assess their suitability for nomination for re-election.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**17.** **CODES OF ETHICS** 

The Board expects all directors, officers and employees of the Corporation to conduct themselves in accordance with the highest ethical standards.

The Board has adopted a Code of Ethics for employees which addresses, among other things, avoidance of conflicts of interest, protection of confidential information, compliance with applicable laws, rules and regulations, adherence to good disclosure practices and procedures for employees and third parties to report concerns with respect to accounting and auditing matters. As set out in the Code, an employee who, in good faith, reports a concern regarding accounting matters or a suspected breach of the Code is protected from reprisal, such as dismissal, demotion, suspension, threats, harassment or discrimination.

The Board has also adopted a Code of Ethics for directors which sets out the ethical standards that apply to directors in the exercise of their duties.

Both Codes are posted on the Corporation's website and are available in print to any shareholder who requests a copy.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**18.** **INDEMNIFICATION AND INSURANCE** 

In accordance with the by-laws of the Corporation, directors and officers are each indemnified by the Corporation against all liability and costs arising out of any action or suit against them from the execution of their duties, provided that they have carried out their duties honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of the Corporation and have otherwise complied with the provisions of applicable corporate law.

The Corporation maintains insurance for the benefit of its directors and officers against any liability incurred by them for which they would be indemnified. The amount and terms of the insurance coverage are dependent upon prevailing market conditions and practices with the objective of adequately protecting directors and officers from such liability.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**19.** **CONFLICTS OF INTEREST** 

Each director is required to inform the Chair and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of any conflict of interest he or she may have with the Corporation. If a director has a personal interest in a matter before the Board or a committee, he or she must not participate in any vote on the matter except where the Board or the committee has expressly determined that it is appropriate for him or her to do so.

Dear Shareholder:

**NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN THAT** the annual meeting of the shareholders (the "**Meeting**") of Centerra Gold Inc. ("**Centerra**" or the "**Company**") will be held on May 5, 2026 at 11:00 a.m. (Toronto time) in order for shareholders of Centerra to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5. transact such other business as may properly come before
the Meeting, or any postponement or adjournment thereof.

Similar to last year, to permit a greater number of shareholders to attend the Meeting, Centerra will hold the Meeting in a virtual only format, which will be conducted via live audio webcast at <u>www.meetings.lumiconnect.com/400-905-228-434</u>. At this website, shareholders will have an equal opportunity to attend, participate fully in the Meeting in real time as if it were held in-person and vote their common shares of Centerra accordingly at the Meeting, regardless of geographic location. Shareholders will not be able to physically attend the Meeting.

Registered shareholders and duly appointed proxyholders will be able to attend, participate and vote at the Meeting online. Non-registered shareholders (being shareholders who beneficially own common shares of Centerra that are registered in the name of an intermediary such as a bank, trust company, securities broker or other nominee, or in the name of a depository of which the intermediary is a participant) who have not duly appointed themselves as proxyholder will be able to attend the Meeting online as guests, but guests will not be able to vote or ask questions at the Meeting.

A Centerra shareholder who wishes to appoint a person other than the Centerra proxyholders identified on the form of proxy or voting instruction form accompanying this notice (including a non-registered shareholder who wishes to appoint themselves as proxyholder in order to attend and vote at the Meeting online) must carefully follow the instructions in the management information circular and on their form of proxy or voting instruction form accompanying this notice.

Without a control number, such proxyholder will only be able to attend the Meeting online as a guest. Non-registered shareholders located in the United States must also provide TSX Trust with a duly completed legal proxy if they wish to vote at the Meeting or appoint a third party as their proxyholder.
