 **IMPORTANT NOTICE** 

<br> The Company is providing shareholders with access to the management information circular (the "Circular") electronically via "notice and access", rather than mailing paper copies, as permitted by Canadian securities regulators. The Company is also providing shareholders with access to its 2025 annual report electronically, rather than mailing paper copies. The Company is using notice and access as a means of delivery as the Company believes that it still facilitates shareholder access to the materials while being more environmentally friendly and cost effective as it will significantly reduce paper use and transportation and will also reduce the cost of printing and mailing materials to shareholders. These materials may be viewed at the Company's website at www.agnicoeagle.com, on the SEDAR+ website at www.sedarplus.com or on the EDGAR website at www.sec.gov.

Shareholders are receiving this notice of availability of proxy materials (the "Notice") together with a form of proxy or voting instruction form. This Notice includes instructions on how to access and review an electronic copy of the Circular or how to request a paper copy. This Notice also includes instructions with respect to voting at the Meeting. Shareholders may request to receive a paper copy of the Circular or other Meeting materials by mail, free of charge, by calling the Company's strategic shareholder advisor and proxy solicitation agent, Laurel Hill, by calling 1-877-452-7184 (toll-free in Canada and the United States) or 1-416-304-0211 (International), by texting "INFO" to either number, or by email at assistance@laurelhill.com, either before or after the Meeting. Requests for paper copies should be made as soon as possible. A paper copy of the Meeting materials will be mailed to you within three business days of receiving your request, if the request is made at any time prior to the Meeting. It is estimated that the request for paper copies of the Meeting materials must be received by April 17, 2026 in order to allow sufficient time for processing and mailing prior to the deadline for submission of voting instructions.

Shareholders are reminded to carefully review the Circular before voting. Shareholders with questions about notice and access should contact Laurel Hill by calling 1-877-452-7184 (toll-free in Canada and the United States) or 1-416-304-0211 (International), by texting "INFO" to either number, or by email at assistance@laurelhill.com.

NOTICE OF 2026 ANNUAL & SPECIAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS

Proxy materials are sent to registered shareholders directly. Proxy materials are sent to intermediaries to be forwarded to all non- registered (beneficial) shareholders. If you are a non-registered shareholder, and the Company or its agent has sent these materials directly to you, your name and address and information about your holdings of securities have been obtained in accordance with applicable securities regulatory requirements from the intermediary holding such securities on your behalf. The Company pays the cost of delivery of proxy materials for all registered and non-registered shareholders, including to intermediaries for delivery to objecting non-registered shareholders.

The Company is conducting a hybrid Meeting that will allow registered shareholders and duly appointed proxyholders to participate both online and in person. Registered shareholders, non-registered (beneficial) shareholders and duly appointed proxyholders will be able to attend the virtual Meeting, ask questions and vote, all in real time through an online portal, provided that they are connected to the Internet and carefully follow the instructions set out in the accompanying management information circular (the "Circular") and form of proxy or voting instruction form, as applicable. Non-registered shareholders who do not follow the procedures set out in the Circular and related proxy materials will be able to listen to a live webcast of the Meeting as guests, but will not be able to ask questions or vote. For shareholders wishing to attend the Meeting virtually, the Company has also filed a "Virtual AGM User Guide" under the Company's issuer profile on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.com and on EDGAR at www.sec.gov. A copy of the Virtual AGM User Guide is also available on the Company's website www.agnicoeagle.com under "Investor Relations — Financial Information".

You have received this Circular because you owned common shares of Agnico Eagle Mines Limited on March 13, 2026. Regardless of whether a shareholder plans to attend the Meeting in person or virtually, the Company encourages all shareholders to vote in advance of the Meeting. Registered shareholders may vote their proxies by mail, phone or via the Internet. To be effective at the Meeting, proxies must be deposited with Computershare Trust Company of Canada no later than 11:00 a.m. (Toronto time) on April 29, 2026, or no later than 48 hours (excluding Saturdays, Sundays and holidays) before the time of any adjourned or postponed Meeting. Non-registered shareholders will receive a voting instruction form from their intermediaries and must carefully follow the instructions on the voting instruction form. Intermediaries may set deadlines for voting that are further in advance of the Meeting than those set out in the Circular. For additional information on how to vote in advance of the Meeting and how to attend the Meeting, whether in person or virtually, shareholders should carefully review "Section 1: Voting Information" in the Circular.

By order of the Board of Directors

Notes to Readers

## Notes to Readers

#### Forward-Looking Statements
The information in this Circular has been prepared as at March 13, 2026. Certain statements contained in this Circular constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and "forward- looking information" under the provisions of Canadian provincial securities laws and are referred to herein as "forward-looking statements". When used in this Circular, the words "could", "estimate", "expect", "forecast", "future", "plan", "possible", "potential", "target", "will" and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. In particular, this Circular contains forward- looking statements pertaining to the Company's plans with respect to compensation plans and practices and governance practices. Forward-looking statements are necessarily based upon a number of factors and assumptions that, while considered reasonable by the Company as of the date of such statements, are inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies. The material factors and assumptions used in the preparation of the forward-looking statements contained herein, which may prove to be incorrect, include, but are not limited to, the assumptions set forth herein and in the Company's management's discussion and analysis for the year ended December 31, 2025 (the "MD&A") and the Company's annual information form for the year ended December 31, 2025 dated as of March 19, 2026 (the "AIF"). Many factors, known and unknown, could cause the actual results to be materially different from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Other than as required by law, the Company does not intend, and does not assume any obligation, to update these forward-looking statements.

#### Note Regarding Estimates of Mineral Reserves and Mineral Resources
The mineral reserve and mineral resource estimates contained in this Circular have been prepared in accordance with the Canadian Securities Administrators' (the "CSA") National Instrument 43-101 — *Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects* ("NI 43-101").

The United States Securities and Exchange Commission's (the "SEC") disclosure requirements and policies for mining properties now more closely align with current industry and global regulatory practices and standards, including NI 43-101. However, Canadian issuers that report in the United States using the Multijurisdictional Disclosure System ("MJDS"), such as the Company, may still use NI 43-101 rather than the SEC disclosure requirements when using the SEC's MJDS registration statement and annual report forms. Accordingly, mineral reserve and mineral resource information contained in this Circular may not be comparable to similar information disclosed by U.S. companies.

Investors are cautioned that while the SEC recognizes "measured mineral resources", "indicated mineral resources" and "inferred mineral resources", investors should not assume that any part or all of the mineral deposits in these categories will ever be converted into a higher category of mineral resources or into mineral reserves. These terms have a great amount of uncertainty as to their economic and legal feasibility. Accordingly, investors are cautioned not to assume that any "measured mineral resources", "indicated mineral resources" or "inferred mineral resources" that the Company reports in this Circular are or will be economically or legally mineable.

Further, "inferred mineral resources" have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence and as to their economic and legal feasibility. It cannot be assumed that any part or all of an inferred mineral resource will ever be upgraded to a higher category. Under Canadian regulations, estimates of inferred mineral resources may not form the basis of feasibility or pre-feasibility studies, except in limited circumstances. **Investors are cautioned not to assume that all or any part of an inferred mineral resource exists or is or will ever be economically or legally mineable.** 

The mineral reserve and mineral resource data set out in this Circular are estimates, and no assurance can be given that the anticipated tonnages and grades will be achieved or that the indicated level of recovery will be realized. The Company does not include equivalent gold ounces for by-product metals contained in mineral reserves in its calculation of contained ounces and mineral reserves are not reported as a subset of mineral resources. See "Operations & Production — Mineral Reserves and Mineral Resources" in the AIF for additional information.

As at December 31, 2025, the Company had proven mineral reserves of 6.7 million ounces of gold from 212.8 million tonnes grading 0.98 grams per tonne ("g/t") gold, probable mineral reserves of 48.7 million ounces of gold from 1,116.8 million tonnes grading 1.36 g/t gold, measured mineral resources of 4.7 million ounces of gold from 113.3 million tonnes grading 1.28 g/t gold, indicated mineral resources of 42.4 million ounces of gold from 1,086.5 million tonnes grading 1.21 g/t gold and inferred mineral resources of 41.8 million ounces of gold from 522.3 million tonnes grading 2.49 g/t gold.

For scientific and technical information about the Company's mines and projects, please refer to the AIF.

#### Note to Investors Concerning Certain Measures of Performance
This Circular discloses certain financial performance measures, including "total cash costs per ounce", "all-in sustaining costs per ounce" and "free cash flow", that are not standardized measures under IFRS. These measures may not be comparable to similar measures reported by other gold producers. For a reconciliation of these measures to the most directly comparable financial information reported in the consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS, and for an explanation of the composition and usefulness of these measures, see the MD&A dated February 12, 2026, under the caption "Non-GAAP Financial Performance Measures", which section is incorporated by reference into this Circular. Unless otherwise indicated, "total cash costs per ounce" and "all-in sustaining costs per ounce" are reported on a by-product basis.

To see the results of voting on the matters submitted to the Company's annual and special meeting of shareholders held on April 25, 2025, see Appendix C.

#### Who is soliciting my proxy?
The management of the Company is soliciting your proxy for use at the Meeting.

#### How are proxies solicited?
The solicitation of proxies will be primarily by mail; however, proxies may be solicited personally or by phone, email, Internet or other electronic means of communication by directors, officers, employees or representatives of the Company. The cost of this solicitation will be paid by the Company. In addition, Laurel Hill has been engaged by the Company in connection with the Meeting as the Company's proxy solicitation agent and shareholder communications advisor. Laurel Hill will receive a fee of approximately C$50,000 for services provided, plus reasonable out-of-pocket expenses.

#### How are proxy materials delivered to shareholders?
The Company is providing shareholders with access to the Circular electronically via "notice and access", rather than mailing paper copies, as permitted by Canadian securities regulators. The Company is also providing shareholders with access to its 2025 annual report electronically, rather than mailing paper copies. The Company is using notice and access as a means of delivery as the Company believes that it still facilitates shareholder access to the materials while being more environmentally friendly and cost effective as it will significantly reduce paper use and transportation and will also reduce the cost of printing and mailing materials to shareholders.

Shareholders have received a notice of availability of proxy materials (the "Notice") together with a form of proxy or voting instruction form. The Notice includes instructions on how to access and review an electronic copy of the Circular and how to request a paper copy. The Notice also included instructions with respect to voting at the Meeting. To receive a paper copy of the Circular or the 2025 annual report, please follow the instructions in the Notice.

Shareholders are reminded to carefully review the Circular before voting. Shareholders with questions about notice and access should contact the Company's strategic shareholder advisor and proxy solicitation agent, Laurel Hill, by calling 1-877-452-7184 (toll-free in Canada and the United States) or 1-416-304-0211 (International), by texting "INFO" to either number, or by email at assistance@laurelhill.com.

Proxy materials are sent to registered shareholders directly. Proxy materials are sent to intermediaries to be forwarded to all non- registered (beneficial) shareholders. If you are a non-registered shareholder, and the Company or its agent has sent these materials directly to you, your name and address and information about your holdings of securities have been obtained in accordance with

Section 1: Voting Information

applicable securities regulatory requirements from the intermediary holding such securities on your behalf. The Company pays the cost of delivery of proxy materials for all registered and non-registered shareholders, including to intermediaries for delivery to objecting non-registered shareholders.

#### What will I be voting on?
You will be voting on:

• the election of directors (page [11](#tEOD));

• the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as the Company's auditors (page [31](#CLRY));

• a non-binding, advisory resolution on the Company's approach to executive compensation (page [33](#tAVOA)); and

• other business brought before the Meeting if any other matter is put to a vote.

#### What else will happen at the Meeting?
The financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025, together with the auditors' report on such statements, will be presented at the Meeting.

#### How will these matters be decided at the Meeting?
A majority of votes cast, by proxy or in person (including through the virtual Meeting interface), will constitute approval of each of the matters specified in this Circular.

#### How many votes do I have?
You will have one vote for each common share of the Company you own at the close of business on March 13, 2026, the record date for the Meeting (the "Record Date"). To vote common shares that you acquired after the Record Date, you must, no later than the commencement of the Meeting:

• request that the Company add your name to the list of voters; and

• properly establish ownership of the common shares or produce properly endorsed share certificates evidencing that the common shares have been transferred to you.

#### How many shares are eligible to vote?
At the close of business on the Record Date, there were 500,989,463 common shares of the Company outstanding. Each common share held at that date entitles its holder to one vote. To the knowledge of the directors and officers of the Company, no person or corporation owns or exercises control or direction over 10% or more of the outstanding common shares.

#### How many shareholders are required for a quorum?
The Company must have at least two people present at the Meeting who hold, or represent by proxy, in aggregate, at least 25% of the outstanding common shares of the Company. Shareholders who participate in or vote at the Meeting virtually are deemed to be present at the Meeting for all purposes, including quorum.

#### Why is the Company holding a hybrid Meeting?
The Company believes the Meeting is an important occasion for the board of directors of the Company (the "Board of Directors" or the "Board"), management and shareholders to come together and participate in decisions relating to the governance and other business of the Company. The Company believes that offering the opportunity for shareholders to participate in the Meeting via live webcast in addition to hosting a physical Meeting will allow shareholders to have an equal opportunity to attend and be heard at the Meeting even if they are unable to attend the Meeting in person.

#### How do I vote?
You can vote in advance of the Meeting, you can vote at the Meeting, both online or in person, or you can appoint a third party to attend the Meeting, both online and in person, and vote your common shares for you. How you vote depends on whether you are a registered shareholder or a non-registered shareholder. You are a registered shareholder if the common shares that you own are registered directly in your name as reflected in the records of our transfer agent, Computershare Trust Company of Canada ("Computershare"). You are a non-registered shareholder if the common shares that you own are held by an intermediary, generally being a bank, trust company, investment dealer, clearing agency or other institution. If you are not sure whether you are a registered shareholder or a non-registered shareholder, please contact the Company's strategic shareholder advisor and proxy solicitation agent, Laurel Hill, by calling 1-877-452-7184 (toll-free in Canada and the United States) or 1-416-304-0211 (International), by texting "INFO" to either number, or by email at assistance@laurelhill.com.

Section 1: Voting Information

#### How can I vote in advance of the Meeting as a registered shareholder?
If you were a registered shareholder at the close of business on the Record Date, you can vote in advance of the Meeting by submitting a proxy. You can vote by proxy in any of the following ways:

By Phone:

Call Computershare toll free in North America at 1-866-732-8683 or outside North America at 1-312-588-4290. You will need your 15-digit control number, which can be found on your form of proxy. Please note that if you vote by phone you cannot appoint anyone other than the directors and officers named on your form of proxy as your proxyholder.

By Internet:

Access www.investorvote.com and follow the instructions on the screen. You will need your 15-digit control number, which can be found on your form of proxy.

By Mail:

Complete, sign and date your form of proxy and return it to Computershare at 100 University Avenue, 8<sup>th</sup> Floor, Toronto, Ontario M5J 2Y1, Attention: Proxy Department in the envelope provided.

If you vote by proxy, your proxy must be received no later than 11:00 a.m. (Toronto time) on April 29, 2026, or no later than 48 hours (excluding Saturdays, Sundays and holidays) before the time of any adjourned or postponed Meeting, regardless of the method you choose. If you do not date your proxy, we will assume the date to be the date on which it is mailed by the Company to the holder. If you vote by phone or via the Internet, do not return your form of proxy.

#### How can I attend the Meeting as a registered shareholder?
If you were a registered shareholder at the close of business on the Record Date, you will be able to attend, ask questions and vote at the Meeting in person or virtually. The online webcast will be in real time through the virtual meeting interface. To attend the virtual Meeting, access https://meetnow.global/MNA74VC, click on the "Shareholder" button and enter your 15 digit control number found on your form of proxy. See below under the headings "*How can I vote at the Meeting?*" and "*How can I ask questions at the Meeting?*" for more information.

#### Can I appoint someone other than the directors and officers named in the form of proxy to represent me at the Meeting?
**You may appoint a person (who need not be a shareholder), other than one of the directors or officers named in the form of proxy, to represent you and vote on your behalf at the Meeting, in person or virtually**. To do so, insert that person's name in the blank space provided in the form of proxy and follow the instructions for submitting the form of proxy. If you wish to appoint someone other than the directors and officers named in the form of proxy to represent you at the Meeting, you must use a voting method other than by phone.

**Shareholders who wish to appoint a third party proxyholder to represent them at the virtual Meeting must take the additional step of registering their proxyholder with Computershare once their form of proxy has been submitted**. To do so, shareholders must access http://www.computershare.com/AgnicoEagle no later than 11:00 a.m. (Toronto time) on April 29, 2026, or no later than 48 hours (excluding Saturdays, Sundays and holidays) before the time of any adjourned or postponed Meeting, and provide Computershare with the required proxyholder contact information so that Computershare may register your third party proxyholder and provide your third party proxyholder with an invite code for the Meeting via email. **Failure to register your third party proxyholder will result in your third party proxyholder not receiving an invite code, which will prevent them from being able to ask questions or vote at the virtual Meeting**. If your third party proxyholder is attending the Meeting in person, you DO NOT need to register their appointment online.

If you appoint a third party proxyholder, please ensure that they are aware that they have been appointed as your proxyholder and confirm that they will participate at the Meeting, either online or in person. If your third party proxyholder will attend the virtual Meeting, you should confirm that they have received their invite code prior to the Meeting. Once your third party proxyholder has been registered and received their invite code, they can attend the virtual Meeting by accessing https://meetnow.global/MNA74VC, click on the "Shareholder" button and enter the invite code provided to them by Computershare. See below under the headings "*How can I vote at the Meeting?*" and "*How can I ask questions at the Meeting?*" for more information.

Section 1: Voting Information

#### How will my shares be voted if I return a proxy?
 **On the form of proxy, you can indicate how you would like your proxyholder to vote your common shares for any matter put to a vote at the Meeting and on any ballot, and your common shares will be voted accordingly. If you have appointed the designated directors or officers of the Company as your proxyholder and you do not indicate how you want your common shares to be voted, they intend to vote your common shares in the following manner:**

| | **FOR the acceptance of the Company's approach to executive compensation; and**  |
| | **FOR management's proposals generally.**  |

---

#### What if I want to revoke my proxy?
Registered shareholders can revoke their proxy at any time prior to its use. You may revoke your proxy by requesting, or having your authorized attorney request, in writing to revoke your proxy. This request must be delivered to the Company's address at Suite 400, 145 King Street East, Toronto, Ontario, M5C 2Y7, Attention: Corporate Secretary before the last business day preceding the day of the Meeting or any adjournment of the Meeting. In addition, if you log into the Meeting and accept the terms and conditions and you vote again at the Meeting, you will be revoking any and all previously submitted proxies. If you do not wish to revoke all previously submitted proxies, do not vote again at the virtual Meeting or only attend the virtual Meeting as a guest. See below under the heading "*How can I attend the Meeting as a guest?*" for more information.

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 out 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.

#### How can I vote in advance of the Meeting as a non-registered shareholder?
If your common shares are not registered in your name, they will be held by an intermediary, generally being a bank, trust company, investment dealer, clearing agency or other institution. **Each intermediary has its own procedures that should be carefully followed by non-registered shareholders to ensure that your common shares are voted at the Meeting, including when and where the voting instruction form or form of proxy is to be delivered**. If you are a non-registered shareholder, you should have received the proxy materials, together with either: (a) the voting instruction form from your intermediary to be completed and signed by you and returned to the intermediary in accordance with the instructions provided by the intermediary, or (b) a form of proxy, which has already been signed by the intermediary and is restricted as to the number of common shares beneficially owned by you, to be completed by you and returned to Computershare no later than 11:00 a.m. (Toronto time) on April 29, 2026, or no later than 48 hours (excluding Saturdays, Sundays and holidays) before the time of any adjourned or postponed Meeting.

Many intermediaries now delegate the responsibility for obtaining instructions from clients to Broadridge Financial Solutions Inc. ("Broadridge"). Broadridge typically prepares a machine-readable voting instruction form, mails those forms to non-registered shareholders and asks non-registered shareholders to return the forms to Broadridge, or otherwise communicate voting instructions to Broadridge (by way of the internet or telephone, for example). The Company may also use Broadridge's QuickVote™ service to assist eligible non-registered shareholders with voting their common shares over the telephone. Eligible non-registered shareholders may be contacted by Laurel Hill to obtain voting instructions directly over the telephone.

#### How can I attend the Meeting as a non-registered shareholder?
If you are a non-registered shareholder and you wish to attend the Meeting, you must insert your own name in the space provided on the voting instruction form sent to you by your intermediary and follow all of the applicable instructions provided by your intermediary. By doing so, you are instructing the intermediary to appoint you as proxyholder and you will be able to attend and vote your common shares at the Meeting, in person or virtually, subject to completing the additional steps below.

**In order to attend and vote your common shares at the virtual Meeting, you must take the additional step of registering yourself as proxyholder with Computershare once you have submitted your voting instruction form**. To do so, shareholders must access http://www.computershare.com/AgnicoEagle no later than 11:00 a.m. (Toronto time) on April 29, 2026, or no later than 48 hours (excluding Saturdays, Sundays and holidays) before the time of any adjourned or postponed Meeting, and provide Computershare with your contact information so that Computershare may provide you with an invite code for the Meeting via email. **Failure to register yourself will result in you not receiving an invite code, which will prevent you from being able to ask questions or vote at the virtual Meeting**. If you plan to attend the Meeting in person, you DO NOT need to register your appointment online. Once you have been registered and received your invite code, you can attend the virtual Meeting by accessing

duration of the Meeting. It is recommended that you log in approximately thirty minutes before the start of the Meeting. In addition, if you log into the Meeting and accept the terms and conditions and you vote again at the Meeting, you will be revoking any and all previously submitted proxies. If you do not wish to revoke all previously submitted proxies, do not vote again at the virtual Meeting or only attend the virtual Meeting as a guest.

#### How can I ask questions at the Meeting?
If you are attending the Meeting as a registered shareholder or a duly appointed proxyholder (including a non-registered shareholder that has been properly appointed and registered with Computershare pursuant to the instructions above), questions can be submitted in person and online.

Questions may be asked at the virtual Meeting by using the text box of the virtual Meeting interface throughout the Meeting. Questions may be asked at the physical Meeting by raising your hand to indicate you have a question when the Chair of the Meeting provides opportunities to ask questions, and clearly stating your name and identifying yourself as a shareholder or proxyholder prior to asking your question.

Questions that relate to a specific motion must indicate which motion they relate to at the start of the question (e.g., "Election of Directors") and must be submitted and/or asked prior to voting on the motion so they can be addressed at the appropriate time during the Meeting. If questions do not indicate which motion they relate to or are received or asked after voting on the motion, they will be addressed during the general question and answer session after the formal business of the Meeting. Proper questions or comments submitted through the text box of the virtual Meeting interface will be read or summarized by a representative of the Company, after which the Chair of the Meeting will respond or direct the question to the appropriate person to respond. If several questions relate to the same or very similar topic, the Chair of the Meeting may group the questions and state that similar questions have been received. The Chair of the Meeting reserves the right to edit or reject questions that he or she considers inappropriate. The Chair has broad authority to conduct the Meeting in a manner that is fair to all shareholders and may exercise discretion in the order in which questions are asked and the amount of time devoted to any one question.

If you would like to access the virtual Meeting as a guest in listen only mode, click on the "Guest" button after accessing the virtual Meeting interface at https://meetnow.global/MNA74VC and enter the information requested on the online form.

Section 2: Business of the Meeting

## Section 2: Business of the Meeting
![[MISSING IMAGE: fc_item2election-pn.jpg]](fc_item2election-pn.jpg)

The articles of the Company provide for a minimum of five and a maximum of fifteen directors. By special resolution of the shareholders of the Company approved at the annual and special meeting of the Company held on June 27, 1996, the shareholders authorized the Board of Directors to determine the number of directors within the minimum and maximum. The number of directors to be elected at the Meeting is 11, as determined by the Board of Directors by a resolution passed on March 17, 2026. The Board of Directors has determined that a Board size of 11 directors is sufficient to provide a diversity of skills, gender, age, education, geographic representation, competencies and opinions, and to allow for effective committee organization, while at the same time being small enough to facilitate efficient meetings and decision-making at meetings.

The names of the proposed nominees for election as directors are set out below. Each nominee is currently a member of the Board of Directors, and has consented to serve as a director if elected at the Meeting and will hold office until the next annual meeting of shareholders of the Company or until his or her successor is elected or appointed or the position is vacated. Management of the Company does not currently know of any reason why any director nominee will be unable to serve as a director but, if any nominee should be unable to serve for any reason prior to the Meeting, the persons named on the enclosed form of proxy reserve the right to vote in their discretion for other nominees as directors.

![[MISSING IMAGE: pc_businessmeeting-pn.jpg]](pc_businessmeeting-pn.jpg)

The Board of Directors does not have a mandatory retirement policy for directors based solely on age nor does it have any term limits or similar mechanisms in place for forcing the renewal or replacement of directors. Rather, while the Company acknowledges that there are benefits to adding new perspectives to the Board of Directors from time to time, the Company believes that this can happen naturally without mechanisms such as term limits. In addition, the Company believes that there are also benefits that result from continuity and the experience and knowledge that comes from longer service on a board because of the complex, critical issues that boards face.

Due in part to the Company's practice of conducting robust annual evaluations of the Board of Directors, each committee of the Board of Directors ("Committees") and individual directors, the Board of Directors approved and adopted a resignation policy primarily based on the directors' performance, commitment, skills and experience. As set out in greater detail under "Board of Directors Governance Matters" and "Appendix A: Statement of Corporate Governance Practices — Assessment of Directors" below, each of the directors' performances is evaluated annually and the Company uses a rigorous identification and selection process for any new director nominees, which includes the consideration of a variety of factors, including the desired skills, experiences, competencies and qualifications needed for potential nominees, having regard to the strategies, needs and best interests of the Company, the Board of Directors and the Committees.

The persons named on the enclosed form of proxy intend to VOTE FOR the election of each of the proposed nominees whose names are set out below and who are all currently directors of the Company unless a shareholder has specified in his or her proxy that his or her common shares are to be withheld from voting for the election of a proposed nominee. <br>

The security ownership information set out below reflects ownership of (i) common shares of the Company, (ii) Restricted Share Units ("RSUs") under the Company's Restricted Share Unit Plan (the "RSU Plan") (see "Compensation and Other Information — RSU Plan" on page [56](#RSUP) of this Circular), and (iii) Deferred Share Units ("DSUs") under Kirkland Lake Gold Ltd.'s ("Kirkland Lake Gold" or "KLG") deferred share unit plan (the "Legacy DSU Plan") (as described below), in each case as at March 6, 2026.

Agreement and, following the closing of the Merger, each DSU that was held by a former KLG director who became a director of the Company remained outstanding in accordance with the terms of the Legacy DSU Plan and was adjusted to reflect the "Exchange Ratio" provided for in the Merger Agreement. Effective as of February 8, 2022, each former KLG director who became a director of the Company commenced participation in the RSU Plan and now receives RSUs in respect of their service as a director of the Company. Under the terms of the Legacy DSU Plan, DSUs can only be redeemed on the cessation of service or death of the director, and are settled in cash based on the "Market Price" of the Company's common shares at the time of redemption. Effective as of February 8, 2022, no additional DSUs may be issued under the Legacy DSU Plan.

The "Value of At-Risk Investment" information set out in the biographies below indicates the total market value of common shares, RSUs and/or DSUs (all RSUs and DSUs are unvested) held by a director based on the closing price of the Company's common shares on the Toronto Stock Exchange (the "TSX") of C$300.11 on March 6, 2026. Directors are not eligible to receive options ("Options") to purchase common shares of the Company pursuant to the Company's Stock Option Plan (the "Stock Option Plan"). The rate of exchange used to convert Canadian to U.S. dollars was the average of the daily 2025 exchange rates reported by the Bank of Canada, being C$1.00 equals US$0.7154.

Section 2: Business of the Meeting

The overall meeting attendance in 2025 is shown in the graph below. In addition to formal board meetings, the Board of Directors also attends a series of educational and other events described below under "Board of Directors Governance Matters — Director Education" and held a number of informal Board update sessions throughout 2025.

#### Overall Director Attendance — 2025
![[MISSING IMAGE: bc_overalldirector-pn.jpg]](bc_overalldirector-pn.jpg)

### Compensation of Directors and Other Information
The table below sets out the annual retainers (annual retainers for the Chair, Lead Director and Committees Chairs are in addition to the base annual retainer) paid to the directors during the year ended December 31, 2025. Directors do not receive meeting attendance or travel fees. The value of annual retainers is specified in U.S. dollars but, for all directors other than Mr. Roberts and Ms. Lewis-Gray (who are paid in U.S. dollars), the annual retainer fees are converted and paid in the equivalent Canadian dollar amount (see "Director Compensation Table — 2025" on page [24](#DICT) of this Circular).

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| | **Retainers payable for the year <br> ending December 31, 2025**  |
| Annual Board of Directors retainer (base) | $100000 |
| Additional Annual retainer for Chair of the Board of Directors | $125000 |
| Additional Annual retainer for Lead Director of the Board of Directors  | $40000 |
| Additional Annual retainer for Chair of the Audit Committee  | $25000 |
| Additional Annual retainer for Chair of the Compensation Committee  | $25000 |
| Additional Annual retainer for Chairs of other Board Committees  | $15000 |

---

In addition to the annual retainers described above, each non-executive director is entitled to receive an annual grant of 4,000 RSUs in January of each year, other than the Chair who is entitled to receive an annual grant of 8,000 RSUs in January of each year. However, if a director meets the Minimum Shareholding Requirement Policy (as described under "Director Shareholding Guidelines" below), he or she can elect to receive cash in lieu of a portion of the RSUs to be granted, subject to receipt of a minimum annual grant of 1,000 RSUs. As the value of RSUs directly tracks the value of the Company's common shares, the equity value of director compensation corresponds directly with share price movements, thereby closely aligning director and shareholder interests. Directors are not eligible to receive Options.

In determining the compensation approach for the Chair, the Board considered, among other things, the following factors: (i) advice from the Company's compensation consultant, including benchmarking of chair compensation at the Company's peer group as well as the wider TSX60, (ii) the compensation approach the Company had adopted for its most recent non-executive Chair (Mr. James D. Nasso), who was entitled to the same additional annual retainer ($125,000) and same annual grant of 8,000 RSUs, for the period from January 1, 2016 until his retirement from the Board on February 8, 2022, (iii) the significant value Mr. Boyd provides to the Company, having regard to his leadership, decades of experience and strategic vision, and (iv) feedback received from shareholders with respect to the continued leadership of Mr. Boyd.

Section 2: Business of the Meeting

Mr. Al-Joundi, who is the President & Chief Executive Officer of the Company, did not receive any remuneration for his services as a director of the Company in the year-ended December 31, 2025.

#### Director Shareholding Guidelines
To more closely align the interests of directors with those of shareholders, the Company has adopted a Minimum Shareholding Requirement Policy for the Board of Directors. Pursuant to this policy, non-executive directors are required to own a minimum of 15,000 common shares of the Company, RSUs and/or DSUs and the Chair of the Board is required to own a minimum of 20,000 common shares of the Company, RSUs and/or DSUs. Directors have five years from the date of joining the Board of Directors to achieve the minimum ownership level. Mr. Al-Joundi is subject to the executive shareholding requirements set out under "Share Ownership" on page [53](#tSHOP) of this Circular. As of March 6, 2026, all of the directors have satisfied the minimum share ownership requirement.

The following table sets out the number and the value of common shares, RSUs and DSUs held by each director of the Company.

Indicates the total market value of common shares, RSUs and DSUs (all RSUs and DSUs are unvested) held by a director based on the closing price of the Company's common shares on the TSX of C$300.11 on March 6, 2026. The rate of exchange used to convert Canadian to U.S. dollars was the average of the daily 2025 exchange rates reported by the Bank of Canada, being C$1.00 equals US$0.7154.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; (2)

The Legacy DSU Plan was assumed by the Company under the Merger Agreement. DSUs are only held by former KLG directors who are now members of the Board.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; (3)

This amount is calculated by dividing the "Aggregate Value of Common Shares, RSUs and DSUs" by $766,066, being the value of regular director compensation as at December 31, 2025, comprised of (i) $100,000 in retainer fees, and (ii) 4,000 RSUs valued at C$232.76 each (based on the closing price of the Company's common shares on the TSX on December 31, 2025). The rate of exchange used to convert Canadian to U.S. dollars was the average of the daily 2025 exchange rates reported by the Bank of Canada, being C$1.00 equals US$0.7154.

Section 2: Business of the Meeting

### Board of Directors Governance Matters
In addition to the discussion below, see "Appendix A: Statement of Corporate Governance Practices" for additional details on the Company's governance practices.

### Majority Voting Policy
Each director of the Company is elected individually. The Board of Directors has adopted a Majority Voting Policy that provides that in an uncontested election of directors, any nominee who receives a greater number of votes "withheld" than votes "for" will tender his or her resignation to the Chair of the Board immediately following the shareholders' meeting. The Corporate Governance Committee will then consider the offer of resignation and will make a recommendation to the Board of Directors on whether to accept it. The Board of Directors will accept the resignation absent exceptional circumstances that would warrant the director continuing to serve on the Board of Directors, as determined by the Board of Directors in accordance with its fiduciary duties to the Company. The Board of Directors will make its final decision and announce it in a news release (including fully stating its reasons for rejecting the resignation, if applicable) within 90 days following the shareholders' meeting. A resignation shall be effective immediately upon acceptance by the Board of Directors. A director who tenders his or her resignation pursuant to the Majority Voting Policy will not participate in any meeting of the Board of Directors or the Corporate Governance Committee at which the resignation is considered.

### Outside Board Participation Policy
The Board of Directors has adopted an Outside Board Participation Policy that provides that directors of the Company must seek the permission of the Corporate Governance Committee in order to serve on the board of another public company. The primary purpose of the Outside Board Participation Policy is to address any potential issues of perceived or real conflict, including any excessive external time commitments. The Corporate Governance Committee may include any conditions or requirements as the Corporate Governance Committee deems appropriate in the making of any determination. Notwithstanding any approval given, should the Corporate Governance Committee later determine that it would no longer be appropriate for a director to be a director of a particular other public company, the Corporate Governance Committee will communicate that view to the director, and the director shall have a reasonable period of time, as determined by the Corporate Governance Committee, to either resign from that other public company or resign as a director from the Board of Directors. The Outside Board Participation Policy also applies to officers and employees of the Company that are not directors of the Company.

### Board Composition
The Company complies with applicable laws in the selection and nomination of individuals to the Board of Directors, and all nominations are merit-based. Within this context the Board of Directors recognizes that diversity is important to ensuring that the Board, as a whole, possesses the qualities, attributes, experience and skills to effectively oversee the strategic direction and management of the Company. The Board of Directors recognizes and embraces the benefits of being diverse, and has identified diversity within the Board as an essential element in attracting high caliber directors and maintaining a high-functioning Board. The Board of Directors considers diversity to include different genders, ages, sexual preferences, disability, cultural backgrounds, races, ethnicities, geographic areas and other characteristics of its stakeholders and the communities in which the Company is present and conducts its business.

![[MISSING IMAGE: pc_dversity-pn.jpg]](pc_dversity-pn.jpg)

In February 2015, the Board of Directors adopted a Board of Directors Diversity Policy, setting out various diversity criteria the Board of Directors and Corporate Governance Committee will consider in identifying, assessing and selecting potential nominees for the Board. This Diversity Policy was most recently updated in March 2024. Pursuant to the Diversity Policy, "diversity" includes the characteristics outlined above, and provides a framework and criteria for the Corporate Governance Committee and the Board of Directors to review and assess the composition of the Board and its Committees and to identify, evaluate and recommend potential new directors. In new director appointments and ongoing evaluations of the effectiveness of the Board of Directors, its Committees and each director, the Corporate Governance Committee and the Board will take into consideration diversity (specifically including gender) as one of the factors in order to maintain an appropriate mix and balance of diversity, attributes, skills, experience and background on the Board of Directors and its Committees. Ultimately, Board appointments are based on merit, taking into account the abilities, skills and experiences identified by the Board of Directors as being in the best interests of the Company and with due

regard to the benefits of diversity in board composition and the desire to maximize the effectiveness of corporate decision-making, having regard to the best interests of the Company and its strategies and objectives, including the interests of its shareholders and other stakeholders.

In identifying suitable candidates for appointment to the Board of Directors, the Corporate Governance Committee considers candidates on merit against appropriate criteria. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Corporate Governance Committee will: instruct any search firm engaged to assist the Board of Directors or the Corporate Governance Committee in identifying candidates for appointment to the Board to include women candidates; instruct any search firm engaged to assist the Board of Directors or the Corporate Governance Committee in identifying candidates for appointment to the Board to include diverse candidates beyond gender; include women candidates on the Board's evergreen list of potential Board nominees maintained from time to time; and strive to include diverse candidates beyond gender on the Board's evergreen list of potential Board nominees maintained from time to time. In furtherance of the Board of Director's diversity goals, the Board of Directors has set as a target that at least 30% of the members of the Board of Directors should be women, however, all appointment will be merit-based.

The following table sets out certain statistics with respect to the diversity shown on the Board and in senior management, as confirmed by each individual director and/or executive.

#### As at December 31, 2025 and March 6, 2026
![[MISSING IMAGE: bc_percent-pn.jpg]](bc_percent-pn.jpg)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; (1)

Each of the Compensation Committee and the HSESD Committee is chaired by a female director.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; (2)

Including all members of the management team at the level of Executive Vice-President and above. One of the executive officers is a woman and also racially/ethnically diverse (visible minority).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; (3)

Including all members of the management team at the level of Executive Vice-President and above.

### Annual Director Assessments
The Board has a formal, comprehensive process to annually assess the performance of the Board as a whole, each Committee and each individual director, which includes a peer review, and is effected under the direction of the Corporate Governance Committee. A list of suggested topics for consideration is shared with each director, which is followed by one-on-one meetings with the Lead Director and Chair of the Board. The suggested topics include a set of open-ended questions to encourage insight on board performance and functioning and to provide peer feedback to directors. Various issues are reviewed and discussed, including Board and Committee structure and composition; succession planning; risk management; director skills, experience and competencies; Board diversity, individual director engagement and contributions; Board and Committee process and effectiveness; and potential topics for director education sessions. These one-on-one meetings take place late in the year, typically in the fall, and a memorandum summarizing the meetings is prepared. The memorandum is initially provided to the Lead Director and the Chair of the Corporate Governance Committee and then shared with all directors and forms the basis for the annual Board/Committee/Director review and discussion at a Corporate Governance Committee meeting and subsequent Board meeting. The Company may, from time to time, engage an independent third party to conduct the annual assessment.

### Board Renewal
The Board of Directors does not have a mandatory retirement policy for directors based solely on age, nor does it have any term limits or similar mechanisms in place for forcing the renewal or replacement of directors. Rather, it has determined that the best means of ensuring director effectiveness is through the rigorous annual performance evaluations described above under "Annual Director Assessments" and not adherence to arbitrary timelines. In conjunction with the annual performance assessments, the Corporate Governance Committee will continue to monitor, evaluate and assess best corporate governance practices and proposals with respect to board renewal mechanisms, having regard to, among other things, the performance of individual directors, the Board and to the strategies, needs and best interests of the Company. As discussed in greater detail under "Appendix A: Statement of Corporate Governance Practices — Assessment of Directors", the Board has adopted a resignation policy primarily based on the

Section 2: Business of the Meeting

directors' performance, commitment, skills and experience in order to foster an appropriate level of renewal and diversity of perspectives at the board level. As discussed under "Shareholder Engagement" below, the Company periodically engages with shareholders with respect to, among other things, governance practices, including with respect to Board renewal and Director tenure considerations. The average tenure of the nominees for election as directors is currently 9.9 years.

### Director Education
The Board believes in the importance of ongoing director education to enable directors to remain current with developments in the mining industry generally, with issues and challenges faced by the Company in particular and with evolving governance norms and practices.

During the annual performance assessments of the Board (see "Annual Director Assessments" above) the Lead Director solicits feedback from individual directors on suggested topics or areas that the directors believe would be beneficial for the Board with respect to director education. These suggestions are then considered by the Lead Director and the Chair in developing the agenda of a Director Education Session, typically held in July of each year. In developing the agenda for the Director Education Session, the Lead Director and the Chair also take into account the topics that have been presented at recent Director Education Sessions. For example, in developing the agenda for the Director Education Session held in July 2025, the Lead Director and the Chair took into account the following topics that were presented to the Board at the Director Education Sessions from 2020-2024.

### Shareholder Engagement
The Board and management recognize the importance of an open and consistent engagement process with the Company's shareholders and other stakeholders. This engagement process is effected by several means, including through the Company's annual and quarterly reports, annual information form, management information circular, annual general meeting of shareholders, quarterly conference calls, news releases, website, discussions with various investor stewardship or corporate governance departments of the Company's shareholders, industry conferences and an extensive and comprehensive program for members of senior management (and, on occasion, directors) to personally meet with the Company's existing and potential shareholders throughout the year. In 2025, representatives of the Company held meetings with individuals and representatives of entities holding, in aggregate, approximately 47% of the outstanding shares of the Company (which, in turn, represented approximately 75% of the Company's shares held by actively managed institutional investors).

In late 2025, the Company completed an outreach effort to engage with shareholders to discuss the Company's approach to sustainability, governance and executive compensation practices, and gather shareholder feedback with respect to the foregoing. During this process, the Company reached out to many of its largest shareholders (excluding broker dealers). In-person and virtual meetings were held with those shareholders who expressed interest, with 17 meetings held representing approximately 18% of the outstanding shares of the Company. These meetings were attended by a combination of the Lead Director, the Executive Vice- President, Sustainability, People & Culture, the General Counsel and representatives from the Company's Investor Relations team, and included in-person meetings in Paris, Frankfurt and London.

For additional details on the Company's engagement with shareholders in 2025 with respect to the Company's approach to executive compensation, see "Letter from the Chair of the Compensation Committee" starting on page [34](#tLFTC) of this Circular.

Shareholders may provide comments directly to the Board by addressing correspondence to the Lead Director of the Board, Agnico Eagle Mines Limited, Suite 400, 145 King Street East, Toronto, Ontario, Canada, M5C 2Y7, which will be forwarded to the independent Lead Director (except for solicitations for purchase or sale of products or services, or similar correspondence) or by e-mail to board@agnicoeagle.com.

### Human Resources Matters
The Company complies with applicable laws in each jurisdiction in which it operates, and makes human resources related decisions on the basis of merit. The Company implemented a Diversity and Inclusion Policy in December 2018, and in January 2026, the Diversity and Inclusion Policy was replaced by an Inclusive Workplace Policy. This policy values inclusion across all aspects of the Company.

Section 2: Business of the Meeting

Management has developed a global long-term strategy to implement the Inclusive Workplace Policy. The priorities cover four key areas: understanding the composition of the Company's communities and workforce; increasing awareness and developing an inclusive mindset through training and resources; attracting, retaining and advancing diverse people by ensuring an equitable and inclusive workplace; and partnering for success with industry associations, suppliers and interested groups.

Through the Company's participation in the Great Place To Work<sup>®</sup> Survey, the demographic statistics of our workforce is tracked and monitored by including voluntary self-identification questions in the countries where it is legislatively supported. The Company continues to identify and work to mitigate barriers to the participation and advancement of women in the mining industry. The Company has also continued its efforts to increase the number of women entering its workforce as well as advancement within the Company, and tracks and reports on the progress of advancing women, though does not set any fixed percentages or quotas. In 2025, women represented approximately 15% of the Company's global workforce (and 25% of the Company's senior corporate executives). Gender representation in decision-making roles is measured to track progress in the advancement of women and they currently represent 21% of our employees in leadership positions.

The Company introduced the Dr. Leanne Baker Scholarship and Development Program in 2021. This program is named in honour of Dr. Leanne Baker, a member of the Company's board for 17 years until she passed away in 2020, including several terms as Chair of the Audit Committee. The Dr. Leanne Baker Scholarship and Development Program is geared at accelerating women into leadership positions through a two-year mentorship and training program. The program, now in its fifth cohort, has contributed to the promotion of 46% of participants, including two members who are now mine General Managers.

In addition to internal programs, the Company sponsors and/or participates in programs it believes to be in the best interest of the Company, including the International Women in Resources Mentoring Programme, the Women's Leadership Intensive workshops and conducting annual reviews of Gender-based Pay Equity.

The Company's human resources strategy is merit-based and encourages hiring of local talent to lead and manage operations. This strategy has a positive effect on engagement, encouraging a sense local ownership, establishing a strong base for responsiveness to community needs, ambassadorship and talent retention. The current local employment rate is approximately 73% (compared to 68% in 2024).

In July 2024, the Company published its first Reconciliation Action Plan. This plan aims at responding to, among other things, the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous People and the call for action No. 92 of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada: Calls to Action, and was built on the Company's existing Indigenous programs, initiatives and long-standing relations with Indigenous peoples. As contemplated in the Reconciliation Action Plan, an external Indigenous Advisory Committee was established during 2025 to provide guidance and oversight for the Company's Reconciliation Action Plan. The inaugural meeting of the Advisory Committee occurred in December 2025. The Reconciliation Action Plan was awarded the 2025 TSM Community Engagement Excellence Award by the Mining Association of Canada. In 2026, the Company expects to publish the first external progress report on the 40 actions set out in the Reconciliation Action Plan.

At the Company's operations in Nunavut, the Company is focused on eliminating systemic barriers that affect Inuit. In addition, the Company is increasing awareness in the context of inclusion in the North, by building inclusive leadership behaviours to enhance employees' sense of belonging. The Company's Sanajiksanut program is a streamlined community-based approach to hiring that aims to position the Company as an employer of choice for Nunavummiut and is designed to increase local employment and help develop local talent through training programs and empower our Inuit workforce to build their own legacy within their communities.

The Company is also committed to including Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit principles in our management approach and Elders from the region are invited to the mine site to meet and address employees about Inuit societal values and principles that guide all aspects of social living.

The Company aims to create an inclusive and collaborative environment where the diversity of perspectives, experiences, cultures, genders, ages and skills of employees are valued and can be leveraged at every level. The Company believes that one of its competitive advantages lies in its ability to leverage the diversity of its employees to drive innovation and to quickly adapt to ongoing changes in the global market and the gold mining industry. With this in mind, management has identified increasing the number of diverse candidates in leadership positions within the Company as a priority to be achieved by focusing on the preparation and support of diverse candidates in leadership positions.

### Cybersecurity
The Audit Committee advises the Board of Directors in its oversight responsibilities regarding, among other things, the Company's cybersecurity program. The Company's senior management reports to the Audit Committee on a quarterly basis, and periodically reports to the Board of Directors as a whole, with respect to the Company's cybersecurity status and performance.

The Company periodically has external audits performed on its IT systems by information technology experts. For example (i) in the second quarter of 2024, a cybersecurity audit focused on ransomware readiness and cloud security, utilizing the CSF v2/NIST framework, (ii) in the first quarter of 2022, an independent third party undertook a comprehensive general assessment, and penetration testing and "purple team exercises" are conducted on an *ad hoc* basis, most recently in the third quarter of 2023 and the third quarter of 2024, respectively. The next comprehensive audit by an independent third party is scheduled for 2026, consistent with the Company's target of conducting comprehensive IT audits every three years, supplemented by multiple smaller audits throughout the three-year period.

Section 2: Business of the Meeting

In 2025, the Company partnered with a third-party provider to "Mitigate, Detect and Respond" to cybersecurity incidents and implemented an employee cybersecurity awareness and training program throughout the Company. In addition, the Company also partnered with a third-party dark web monitoring platform.

In addition, the Board of Directors periodically participates in education sessions with respect to cybersecurity — see "Director Education" above.

### Climate Resiliency
The Board, through the HSESD Committee, is responsible for monitoring and reviewing climate change related risks and opportunities and the Company's plans with respect to climate change. The Company's senior management reports to the HSESD Committee on a quarterly basis, and periodically reports to the Board of Directors as a whole, with respect to climate change related risks and opportunities and the Company's plans with respect to climate change including targets. The Board of Directors also periodically participates in education sessions with respect to climate change related matters — see "Director Education" above. The Board has identified Mr. Al-Joundi as possessing climate expertise having regard to, among other things, Mr. Al-Joundi's education as a mechanical engineer and his participation on the Company's Steering Committee on Climate-related Risks and Opportunities.

The Company periodically publishes a Climate Action Report. Prepared in alignment with the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD), these reports support the Company's interim carbon reduction target of 30% by 2030 and a goal of achieving Net-Zero carbon emissions by 2050.

### Appointment of Auditors
The persons named in the enclosed form of proxy intend to VOTE FOR the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as the Company's auditors, and for the directors to fix the remuneration of the auditors unless a shareholder has specified in his or her proxy that his or her common shares are to be withheld from voting for the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as the Company's auditors. <br>

The Audit Committee annually reviews Ernst and Young's LLP ("EY") performance and independence. During these reviews, the Audit Committee considers, among other things:

• the quality and efficiency of EY's recent audits, including the performance of the partner in charge and the broader audit team;

• EY's independence and objectivity in performance of audit services;

• EY's capability and expertise in handling the breadth and complexity of the Company's operations;

• the quality and candor of EY's communications with the Audit Committee and management; and

• EY's tenure as the Company's external auditor, including the benefits of maintaining a consistent auditor, along with controls and processes that safeguard EY's independence.

EY became the Company's auditors in 1983 and the Audit Committee believes that EY's tenure offers certain benefits, including:

• enhanced audit quality as a result of experience with the Company that has provided EY with significant institutional knowledge of, and deep expertise regarding, the Company's global mining business, accounting policies and practices and internal control over financial reporting; and

• effective audit plans and efficient fee structures as a result of EY's extensive knowledge of the Company's business and control framework.

In addition, the Audit Committee believes that there are strong independence controls in place between the Company and EY, including:

• thorough Audit Committee oversight — the Audit Committee's oversight includes regular private meetings with EY, an evaluation of EY's performance and an Audit Committee driven process for selecting the lead engagement partner;

• through robust pre-approval policies and procedures — the Audit Committee must pre-approve of all fees paid to EY prior to the commencement of the specific engagement; and

• strong internal EY independence policies and procedures — the Audit Committee understands that EY conducts periodic internal quality reviews of its audit work and conducts mandatory annual training for professionals and staff on independence requirements and procedures.

The Company has also adopted a policy regarding the Company's employment of former EY employees to ensure that auditor independence is not impaired due to the employment of former EY employees.

Having regard to the foregoing, the Audit Committee and the Board believe that the quality of EY's services, communications and interaction with the Audit Committee is of a high standard.

Audit fees were paid for professional services rendered by the auditors for the audit of the Company's annual financial statements and related statutory and regulatory filings and for the quarterly review of the Company's interim financial statements.

Audit-related fees were paid for assurance and related services performed by the auditors that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit of the Company's financial statements. This includes consultation with respect to financial reporting, accounting standards and compliance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 ("SOX").

All other fees were paid for services other than the services described above and include fees for professional services rendered by the auditors in connection with the translation of securities regulatory filings required to comply with securities laws in certain Canadian jurisdictions. No other fees were paid to auditors in the previous two years.

The Audit Committee has adopted a policy that requires the pre-approval of all fees paid to Ernst & Young LLP prior to the commencement of the specific engagement and all fees referred to above were pre-approved in accordance with such policy.

Ernst & Young LLP is the external auditor of the Company and has confirmed that it is (i) independent with respect to the Company within the meaning of the CPA Code of Professional Conduct of the Chartered Professional Accountants of Ontario, and (ii) an independent registered public accounting firm with respect to the Company within the meaning of the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, the applicable rules and regulations adopted thereunder by the SEC and the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Canadian auditor independence rules provide that the lead audit partner of a reporting issuer or listed entity shall rotate out of such position every seven years. The SEC's rules on auditor independence provide that the lead audit partner of an SEC issuer shall rotate out of such position every five years. The Company's current lead audit partner started their rotation in 2026.

### Financial Statements

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| | **2025**  | **2024**  | **2023**  |
| Weighted Average Number of Outstanding Shares  | 501992521 | 499903641 | 488722676 |
| Number of Options Granted  | 873464 | 1021400 | 873950 |
| Number of Shares issued under the Incentive Share Purchase Plan  | 466302 | 801645 | 885842 |

Section 2: Business of the Meeting

### Advisory Vote on Approach to Executive Compensation
The Board of Directors believes that the Company's compensation program must align the interests of management with the interests of the Company's shareholders, provide a strong incentive to its executives to achieve the Company's goals and be competitive with companies in its peer group. A detailed discussion of the Company's executive compensation program is provided under "Compensation Discussion & Analysis" starting on page [36](#tCDA) of this Circular and in the "Letter from the Chair of the Compensation Committee" below.

In line with corporate governance best practices in respect of executive compensation, commonly known as "Say on Pay", the Board of Directors has determined to provide shareholders with a "Say on Pay" advisory vote at the Meeting to endorse or not endorse the Company's approach to executive compensation. At the Company's last annual and special meeting of shareholders held on April 25, 2025, 95.8% of shareholders voted in favour of the Company's non-binding resolution on executive compensation.

At the Meeting, shareholders will be asked to consider the following resolution, which is also attached to this Circular as Appendix B:

### BE IT RESOLVED AS AN ADVISORY RESOLUTION THAT:
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 1.

on an advisory basis and not to diminish the role and responsibilities of the Board of Directors of the Company, the approach to executive compensation disclosed in this Circular is hereby accepted.

Because this vote is advisory, it will not be binding upon the Board of Directors. However, the Board of Directors and the Compensation Committee will take the outcome of the vote into account in their ongoing review of executive compensation and, if warranted, will refine the Company's approach to executive compensation in an effort to continue to make the executive compensation practices of the Company acceptable to shareholders.

| ![[MISSING IMAGE: ph_leona-4clr.jpg]](ph_leona-4clr.jpg)  | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; **Dear Fellow Shareholders**: <br> **2025 was another record-breaking year for Agnico Eagle:** <br> • We achieved record annual free cash flow driven by consistent and reliable operational performance <br>• We increased proven and probable mineral reserves to a record 55.4 million ounces of gold <br>• We achieved total shareholder returns of 113% on the TSX in 2025, including a record "all-time high" share price on the TSX of C$260.70 on October 16, 2025 <br>• We provided record shareholder returns of $1.4 billion through dividends and share repurchases <br>**2025 also saw the Company continue to advance plans to increase annual gold production by 20-30% over the next decade:** <br> • In Quebec, with Canadian Malartic's planned expansion to one million ounces of annual gold production <br>• In Ontario, with Detour's planned expansion to one million ounces of annual gold production and unlocking potential in the Kirkland Lake camp at Upper Beaver <br>• In Nunavut, where Hope Bay is on a path to become our next large gold mine in Nunavut <br>|

---

We were also pleased that our commitment to "pay for performance" was strongly endorsed by shareholders, as reflected in the significant support of 95.8% of our shareholders for the "Say on Pay" advisory vote at the Company's last annual and special meeting of shareholders held on April 25, 2025. However, we don't take this support for granted.

With the current strong gold price environment, a key message to our operating team is that we must not become complacent. This means maintaining discipline while staying focused on delivering on our production and cost commitments quarter after quarter, and doing so safely. We take this same approach with respect to executive compensation — in 2025, the Company continued its extensive engagement activities with shareholders to understand our owners' perspectives with respect to executive compensation and other governance matters. This letter describes our engagement efforts and our ongoing commitment to pay for performance.

<u>Engagement Activities and Feedback Received</u> 

In 2025, the Company continued its shareholder engagement efforts, completing an outreach effort to engage with shareholders to discuss the Company's approach to executive compensation, as well as sustainability and governance practices, and gather shareholder feedback with respect to the foregoing. During this process, the Company reached out to many of its largest shareholders (excluding broker dealers). Following this outreach, 16 in-person meetings and one virtual meeting were held with those shareholders who expressed interest (for a total of 17 meetings held, representing approximately 18% of the outstanding shares of the Company). These meetings were attended by a variety of the Company's representatives, but in each case included my colleague Jamie Sokalsky, our Lead Director, in order to provide shareholders with direct access to the Board. The in-person meetings were held in Paris, Frankfurt and London, in order to engage with a different subset of shareholders than the meetings held in Boston, New York and Toronto in 2024. In addition to these 17 meetings, the Company met with six other investors, representing approximately 3% of the outstanding shares of the Company, with respect to sustainability and governance focused matters.

The feedback received from shareholders during these engagement meetings was positive — investors indicated that they appreciated the engagement and the opportunity to get the perspective from the Board's Lead Director on various topics, including

Section 3: Compensation and Other Information

executive compensation. Specifically, the Company's representatives discussed the Company's executive compensation program and its alignment with shareholder performance, in particular with respect to fixed grant practices of long-term incentives and how these fixed grant practices ensure alignment with shareholders, noting that in a rising share price environment total compensation would also rise proportionally. Among other things, investors continued to be interested in the ESG considerations for the short-term incentive of executives and how mid-level management is incentivized on safety and ESG matters. Overall, investors were supportive of the Company's executive compensation program and understood the impact of the rising share price environment on overall executive compensation as a result of the Company's approach to fixed grant practices for long-term incentives.

<u>Continued Commitment</u> 

As I've written to you in the past, over the last few years the Company has made significant changes to its executive compensation program based on feedback from shareholders and proxy advisory firms that are in line with best practices. These changes included:

• **Elimination of Options for executives** 

• **Additional emphasis on PSUs** 

• #### Updated Short-Term Incentive Plan (STIP) methodology to be formula driven
• **Enhanced recoupment policy** 

• **Adopted policy of not paying special cash bonuses or one-time cash bonuses to executives** 

• #### Adjusted timing of Long-Term Incentive Plan (LTIP) grants
• **Adopted "double trigger" change of control provisions** 

What we haven't changed is our commitment to pay for performance. The Compensation Committee remains committed to pay for performance and believes this is well achieved through fixed grant practices of RSUs and PSUs for the Chief Executive Officer and Directors. For instance, while the total pay of the Company's President & Chief Executive Officer in 2025 has increased by approximately 72% from 2024, approximately 98.4% of this increase is directly attributable to the significant increase in the Company's share price year-over-year as shown in the following waterfall chart, and significantly less than the 113% total shareholder return experienced by our shareholders.

![[MISSING IMAGE: bc_compwaterfall-pn.jpg]](bc_compwaterfall-pn.jpg)

<u>Conclusion</u> 

I, together with my colleagues on the Compensation Committee, Martine Celej and Peter Grosskopf, am confident that you, our owners, will agree that we have fulfilled our commitment to pay for performance and will support our "Say on Pay" resolution. I would be pleased to discuss any additional feedback on our approaches to Executive Compensation and can be reached at board@AgnicoEagle.com.

The Hon. Leona Aglukkaq

(Chair)

Section 3: Compensation and Other Information

### Compensation Discussion & Analysis

#### Role of the Compensation Committee
The Compensation Committee exercises broad oversight responsibilities regarding compensation of the Board, executive and senior management. The Compensation Committee reviews, approves and recommends to the Board for its approval the Company's compensation policies. The Compensation Committee also reviews, approves and makes recommendations to the Board concerning the compensation proposed to be paid to the Board, officers and senior management of the Company as well as awards proposed to be made to them under the Company's incentive plans. In conjunction with the Board, the Compensation Committee also reviews the Company's management development programs, its succession plans relating to senior management and performance goals and thresholds to be achieved under its incentive plans. As a means of assisting the Compensation Committee, management researches external sources for compensation data and best practices and external compensation consultants may be retained from time to time.

A key compensation objective of the Company is that compensation should be aligned with performance. In 2025, performance highlights included, among other things, that the Company:

• produced 3,447,367 ounces of gold, above the midpoint of the 2025 guidance range;

• achieved record annual free cash flow driven by consistent and reliable operational performance;

• provided record shareholder returns of $1.4 billion through dividends and share repurchases;

• maintained quarterly dividends in 2025 at $0.40 per share and positioned the Company to increase the quarterly dividend to $0.45 per share beginning in March 2026;

• announced a stable three-year production outlook;

• advanced plans to increase annual gold production by 20-30% over the next decade;

• increased proven and probable mineral reserves at December 31, 2025 to a record 55.4 million ounces of gold;

• increased measured and indicated mineral resources at December 31, 2025 to a record 47.1 million ounces of gold;

• increased inferred mineral resources at December 31, 2025 to a record 41.8 million ounces of gold; and

• achieved several annual throughput and mining rate records during the year.

#### Named Executive Officers
The named executive officers (the "Named Executive Officers" or "NEOs") of the Company and its subsidiaries for the year ended December 31, 2025 include the President & Chief Executive Officer, the Chief Financial Officer and the next three highest-paid executive officers. For purposes of the Compensation Discussion & Analysis section of this Circular, the focus will be on the NEOs. The following table sets out the Company's NEOs for 2025:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **Name**  | **Title**  |
| Ammar Al-Joundi  | President & Chief Executive Officer |
| Jamie Porter  | Executive Vice-President, Finance and Chief Financial Officer  |
| Jean Robitaille  | Executive Vice-President, Chief Strategy & Technology Officer  |
| Dominique Girard  | Executive Vice-President, Chief Operating Officer — Nunavut, <br> Quebec & Europe |
| Natasha Vaz  | Executive Vice-President, Chief Operating Officer — Ontario, <br> Australia & Mexico |

---

#### Compensation Program Philosophy
Management of the Company, including the Named Executive Officers, have a significant influence on corporate performance and creating shareholder value. With this in mind, the Company's philosophy regarding compensation is that it must:

• ensure that the interests of the Named Executive Officers and the Company's shareholders are aligned;

• ensure the pay received by the Named Executive Offices is aligned with the Company's performance;

• be competitive in order to attract and retain Named Executive Officers with the skills and talent needed to lead and grow the Company's business; and

• provide a strong incentive to achieve the Company's goals.

#### Elements of Compensation
The compensation paid to the Company's Named Executive Officers generally has four components:

• base salary and benefits;

• short-term incentive compensation (annual bonus) under the Company's short-term incentive plan ("STIP");

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

• long-term incentive compensation that may consist of grants of RSUs and PSUs under the Company's long-term incentive plan ("LTIP"), as well as optional participation in the Incentive Share Purchase Plan; and

• career compensation in the form of retirement benefits (pension).

Since 2023, no executives at the level of Vice-President and above (including all of the NEOs) are granted Options.

#### Compensation Considerations
The Compensation Committee reviews corporate and management performance and, after several formal and informal meetings over the course of the year, finalizes its review and analyses in mid-December and submits its compensation recommendations to the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors considers the recommendations and the timing related to compensation matters is as follows: (i) base salary — any adjustment becomes effective on January 1 of the next calendar year; (ii) bonus — any STIP payment is made within that calendar year (which reflects performance relating to that year); and (iii) any long-term incentive grants (RSUs and/or PSUs) relating to performance in the current year are awarded in December of the following year in order to more closely align executive compensation with shareholder performance.

When conducting its evaluation of each Named Executive Officer, the Compensation Committee considers, among other things, executive compensation surveys, recommendations by the Company's executive compensation consultant and the performance of the NEO as summarized in evaluations prepared by the Chief Executive Officer for each NEO (other than the Chief Executive Officer) and an evaluation prepared by the Chair and Lead Director for the Chief Executive Officer. The Board of Directors reviews the recommendations made by the Compensation Committee and gives final approval on the compensation of the NEOs. The Board of Directors has complete discretion over the amount and composition of each NEO's compensation.

In 2025, the Company's Human Resources department conducted an internal market analysis using publicly available information from the Company's peer group (the "Internal Survey") and surveys provided by several compensation firms, notably the 2025 Mercer Mining Industry Compensation Survey (the "Mercer Mining Survey"). This market information, among other things, was used by the Compensation Committee and the Board of Directors in recommending and approving salary adjustments, bonuses and long-term incentive grants for the Company's officers.

#### Compensation Consultant
The Compensation Committee has retained Meridian Compensation Partners ("Meridian") as its independent executive compensation consultant, with this engagement initially beginning in 2012. The mandate of the executive compensation consultant is to serve the Company and to work for the Compensation Committee in its review of executive and director compensation and related governance matters. The nature and scope of services provided by Meridian to the Compensation Committee in 2025 included advice regarding peer group selection and benchmarking executive and director compensation levels and pay mix.

The Compensation Committee does not direct Meridian to perform services in any particular manner or under any particular method. It approves all invoices for executive compensation work performed by Meridian. The Compensation Committee has the final authority to hire and terminate Meridian as its executive compensation consultant. Meridian has not provided any other services to the Company other than executive and director compensation consulting services. The aggregate fees related to the executive and directors compensation consulting services paid to Meridian for the past two years were:

The rate of exchange used to convert Canadian to U.S. dollars was the average of the daily 2024 exchange rates reported by the Bank of Canada, being C$1.00 equals US$0.7154.

#### Risk Considerations
The Company's total compensation plan is designed to drive long-term increases in shareholder value. The creation of an appropriate plan requires an understanding of the Company's objectives and the individuals charged with delivering the expected results. The Company strives to design its total compensation plan so that the plan does not result in or encourage behavior that is inconsistent with the goals and objectives of the Company.

The Company continues to experience changes in production, mineral reserves, mineral resources, operations, employees and the international scope of its business, all of which accelerated in 2022 with the Merger. The Board believes that the success of the Company in delivering value for shareholders is largely determined by the quality and consistency of its strategy and the execution thereof. In this regard, the Board believes that it is important to ensure that compensation programs are designed to attract, motivate and retain key employees in order to achieve or exceed the strategic objectives of the Company. As part of its ongoing oversight duties, the Compensation Committee considers the implications of risk associated with the Company's compensation policies and practices having regard to various elements such as, among other things, retention of key personnel and appropriate

performance targets that reward and align performance with compensation. The Company believes that its current compensation policies and practices, including as described in the "Letter from the Chair of the Compensation Committee" above, achieve a proper balance between compensation to reflect both annual performance and long-term value creation. While there is a certain level of overlap between the metrics used for assessing performance under the short-term incentive plan and the PSU Plan (for example, both include reference to total shareholder return, gold production and costs): (i) the time periods over which the metrics are assessed vary; (ii) when the metrics are assessed on a relative basis, the peer groups used vary; and (iii) the weightings assigned to each metric vary. Based on these differences, and the fact that these three elements are among the most important factors used by shareholders in assessing the Company's performance, the Company believes these metrics are appropriate and do not create compensation related risk.

The Company has an anti-hedging policy, set out in the Company's Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, that prohibits all directors and officers from short-selling or trading in derivatives of the Company's securities. In addition, Named Executive Officers are required to own a minimum number of common shares to foster the alignment of management and shareholder interests (see "Share Ownership" on page [53](#tSHOP) of this Circular). The Company also has a recoupment policy to assist in the management of compensation related risk (see "Executive Incentive Compensation Recoupment Policy" on page [52](#EICR) of this Circular).

#### Peer Group
In 2025, the Compensation Committee, with advice from the Company's executive compensation consultant, reviewed the Company's peer group used for the Internal Survey and for determining certain performance factors in the short-term incentive plan. Following this review, the Compensation Committee determined to keep the peer group consistent with the peer group used in 2024. Notwithstanding this consistency, given the Company's size and position within the gold mining industry, there continue to be fewer companies that are directly comparable with the Company in the gold mining industry.

The screening criteria for selecting the companies in the peer group initially included whether: (i) the company operates in the mining sector with a focus on exploration, development and production; (ii) the company has a listing on a U.S. stock exchange; (iii) the company has operations in multiple countries; and (iv) the market capitalization of the companies in the peer group are reasonably comparable to the Company, having regard to the limited number of comparable companies from a size perspective. As this screening criteria did not result in a peer group with a sufficient number of constituent members, the criteria was then expanded to consider (i) companies on the TSX60 or other exchanges in the mining industry, (ii) companies on the TSX60 or other exchanges in adjacent industries to the mining industry (i.e., resource companies), and where (iii) the companies have a size of operations comparable with the scope of operations of the Company, and (iv) the companies have a market capitalization taken within the context of the peer group overall that is reasonably comparable to the Company. Once this screening was complete, the Compensation Committee also (i) reviewed a "peer of peers" analysis, (ii) reviewed the peer groups selected by certain proxy rating agencies to benchmark the findings, and (iii) considered feedback from shareholders.

Following this review, the Compensation Committee selected the following 14 companies for the Internal Survey and to form the peer group for 2025 compensation purposes: Anglo American, Barrick, Cameco Corporation, First Quantum Minerals, Freeport-McMoRan Inc., Kinross Gold Corporation, Lundin Mining Corporation, Newmont Corporation, Nutrien Ltd., Pan American Silver Corp., Rio Tinto plc, Suncor Energy, TC Energy Corporation and Teck Resources. The Company believes this peer group is a good representation of mining industry salaries (primarily gold companies, but including the mining industry generally and some companies in adjacent industries) and an appropriate basis for comparisons to the Company. The Company also believes that this peer group is an appropriate size to provide robust data, limit the impact of outlying data and promote year-over-year stability.

The chart below sets out certain statistics with respect to the peer group for 2025 compensation purposes.

![[MISSING IMAGE: lc_comppeergroup.jpg]](lc_comppeergroup.jpg)

(1) Percentile rank is based on information reported as of December 31, 2025.

#### Base Salary
To retain a competent, strong and effective executive management group, the salaries paid by the Company must be competitive with others in the industry generally, as well as within the regional market in which the Named Executive Officer is located. Base salary levels take into account each Named Executive Officer's individual responsibilities, experience, performance and contribution to enhancing shareholder value. The base salary policy is structured to provide a solid base compensation level for Named Executive Officers to encourage achievement of the Company's goals while aligning their interests with the interests of the Company's shareholders.

[**TABLE OF CONTENTS**](#TOC2)

Section 3: Compensation and Other Information

Annual base salaries are benchmarked against the Internal Survey, together with external surveys of average base salaries paid to officers of other mining companies with similar characteristics to the Company. In the Internal Survey, the Company reviewed the 2025 management information circulars or equivalent disclosure documents of the 14 companies in the Company's peer group. The information reviewed reflected actual compensation paid in 2024.

The external survey used was the Mercer Mining Survey. The Mercer Mining Survey reflected executive base salary remuneration as at April 1, 2025 of 53 mining companies, including 46 Canadian mining companies. Of the companies included in the Mercer Mining Survey, only a minority were listed on a U.S. based stock exchange and only two were larger than the Company, as measured by market capitalization.

The Company does not use the base salaries of senior executives in peer group companies to set the Named Executive Officers base salaries; for instance, there is no policy or practice that the Named Executive Officers salaries must be within a certain quartile of the base salaries of senior executives in peer group companies or any numerical target. Rather, the information from the Internal Survey is used to clarify the position for the Named Executive Officers and to evaluate the compensation of the other executive officers of the Company, while the information from the Mercer Mining Survey is used to verify that the results of the Internal Survey are consistent with Canadian and U.S. industry standards. Because 2025 base salary adjustments (which reflect 2024 performance) are made at the beginning of 2025 but not disclosed in a management information circular until almost 15 months later, there can sometimes be a perceived disconnect between pay and performance.

#### Incentive Compensation
Incentive compensation is contingent upon the performance of the Company and the individual's contribution toward that performance. Incentive compensation may consist of cash bonuses under the Company's short-term incentive plan and long-term incentive compensation in the form of grants of units under the Company's RSU Plan and units under the Company's PSU Plan. All awards or grants of incentive compensation are discretionary.

a. #### Short-Term Incentives
<u>Philosophy</u> 

The Company's policy with respect to short-term incentives is to ensure that proper criteria are used to measure and reward the performance of senior executives and management within the organization.

The overall percentage of incentive compensation should reflect market best practices with respect to incentive compensation, as determined based on the review of external sources of compensation data from peer companies. It should also reflect the equity principles and practices adopted and fostered by the Company.

The short-term incentive policy links the contributions of the Named Executive Officers with business performance by rewarding achievements. Short-term incentive compensation is results-driven, and targets must be achieved for the incentive payout to be earned.

In 2023, following engagement with shareholders, the Company adopted a policy of not paying special cash bonuses or one-time cash bonuses to executives. Rather, the only cash bonus amounts payable to executives are calculated and awarded in accordance with the STIP.

<u>Calculation</u> 

The STIP award amount is calculated as follows:

---

| | | | | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| Individual <br> Incentive <br> Target  | X  | Individual Performance <br> Factor  | X  | Corporate <br> Performance Factor  | X  | ≤  | Maximum <br> Incentive <br> Payout  |
| 15% – 200% <br> Based on Level  |  | 0% – 150% <br> Subject to the Maximum <br> Incentive Payout, may be <br> increased above 150%  |  | 0% – 100%  |  | $— | 18% – 250% <br> Based on <br> Level  |

---

For a further description of the elements used to calculate the STIP award amount see (i) "Target Incentive Levels" below with respect to the individual incentive targets for the Named Executive Officers, (ii) "Individual Performance Factor" and "2025 Individual Performance Factors for Named Executive Officers" below with respect to the individual performance factors, (iii) "Corporate Performance Factor" and "2025 Corporate Performance Score" below with respect to the corporate performance factor, (iv) "Summary Compensation Table" below with respect to base salaries, and (v) "Target Incentive Levels" and "Individual Performance Factor" below with respect to the maximum incentive payout. Taken together, this information discloses all goals under the STIP and the manner in which awards are calculated.

<u>Target Incentive Levels</u> 

Target incentive levels for the STIP are defined as a percentage of base salary and vary by role in the Company and position level. For the Named Executive Officers, the target incentive levels are as follows:

<u>Individual Performance Factor</u> 

The individual performance of each Named Executive Officer is assessed each year during the annual review process and an individual performance factor is set by the Compensation Committee with respect to the Chief Executive Officer and by the Chief Executive Officer with respect to the other Named Executive Officers. The individual performance factor is set between 0% and 150%.

The Compensation Committee can augment the bonus payout to the Chief Executive Officer to a discretionary amount by adjusting the maximum individual performance factor beyond 150%. The Chief Executive Officer can augment the bonus payout to the other Named Executive Officers to a discretionary amount by adjusting the maximum individual performance factor beyond 150%. However, notwithstanding the exercise of such discretion, the total short-term incentive payment cannot exceed the maximum incentive payout set out above for the given position and the Compensation Committee expects that this discretion would only be exercised in extraordinary circumstances. The Board has final approval of any amounts awarded. See below for details.

<u>Corporate Performance Factor</u> 

Each year, specific corporate objectives are established by the Compensation Committee to align compensation with the Company's strategy. The key performance measures and relative weight applied to each key performance measure may vary from year to year to reflect the Company's then current focus, while always having regard to the Company's strategy and compensation philosophy. The Corporate Performance Score is assessed by the Chief Executive Officer, reviewed by the Compensation Committee, and approved by the Board against criteria determined by the Board.

In 2023, the Company adjusted the calculation methodology of certain of the performance measures used to calculate the Corporate Performance Score in order to base them on pre-determined and pre-disclosed formulas. Following such adjustments, approximately 50% of the Corporate Performance Score is now calculated based on pre-determined and pre-disclosed formulas, thereby reducing the exercise of discretion in calculating the Corporate Performance Score. The Company maintained this approach in 2025.

#### 2025 Corporate Performance Score
The corporate objectives and performance for 2025 were, and the objectives for 2026 are as follows:

This measure is assessed against the Company's performance relative to the Company's peer group. For a discussion of how the Company selected the Company's peer group, see "Peer Group" on page 37 of this Circular.

Total Shareholder Return is defined as:

<u>A+B</u>

C

Where: "A" is equal to the volume weighted average trading price of the common shares of the company calculated by dividing the aggregate value by the aggregate volume of the common shares of the company traded on the TSX or, if the common shares are not traded on the TSX, on such other public stock exchange on which the common shares are listed that has the greatest volume of trading, for the five trading days immediately preceding the last day of the reference period; "B" is equal to the total value of dividends paid by the company per common share during the reference period; and "C" is equal to the volume weighted average trading price of the common shares of the company calculated by dividing the aggregate value by the aggregate volume of the common shares of the company traded on the TSX or, if the common shares are not traded on the TSX, on such other public stock exchange on which the common shares are listed that has the greatest volume of trading, for the five trading days immediately preceding the first day of the reference period. For purposes of calculating Total Shareholder Return, the reference period is the period from January 1<sup>st</sup> of the applicable year to November 1<sup>st</sup> of the applicable year.

The performance against the Company's peer group is measured as follows:

---

|:---|:---|:---|
| **Total Shareholder Return**  | **Assessment**  | **Score**  |
| If ranked 1<sup>st</sup> in the peer group | 100%  | 10.0  |

• The GCIFR rate in 2025 was 0.52, at our target of 0.52

• Based on the formula above, the GCIFR rate of 0.52 results in a performance score of 5.6 for this element of the factor

• As the Company continues to move towards its aspirational target of zero accidents, the main focus is on implementing strategies to identify and mitigate risks across the organization and influence people to work safely in every aspect of their day. Continuous improvement is targeted by setting objectives that are seen across the organization as being challenging but achievable in order to motivate employees to achieve the objectives. The Company's practice with respect to setting the GCIFR rate target is to set the target at approximately 5% below the average GCIFR rate of the previous 3 years. For 2026, this resulted in a GCIFR rate target of 0.48

• Overshadowing good safety performance during the year as reflected by the GCIFR result, there was a tragic fatal incident involving a contractor at Fosterville in early December 2025

<u>Judgment Based and other Considerations:</u> 

• The Company continued to track Total Recordable Incident Frequency ("TRIFR", which includes accidents resulting in lost time, restricted duty assignment or requiring medical assistance) rate, achieving a result of 0.96 in 2025, below our target of 1.38

• The emphasis on leading indicators, "Boots in the Field" and "Visible Felt Leadership" continued, with all areas of the business, including construction and exploration, reporting positive uptake

• Global meetings with the Chief Operating Officers, Regional Vice-Presidents and Site Managers were implemented to share learnings from high potential incidents

• The "Incident Cause Analysis Method" ("ICAM") investigation methodology has been implemented across the Company and quality reviews were conducted

• Training in the "Bowtie Risk Assessment" methodology was completed in all operational areas

• Mental health initiatives have been implemented in all regions

Performance score: calculated based on GCIFR rate of 5.6 out of 7.0 and assessed at 0.0 out of 3.0 based on the judgment scored factors, and judgement applied to further reduce the aggregate score to 4.9 out of 10.0 having regard to the fatality at Fosterville

#### Environmental, Social and Governance ("ESG") (10% of total weighting):

• All of the Company's mines demonstrated the application of good practices in environmental and sustainability matters through the application of the Mining Association of Canada's ("MAC") *Toward Sustainable Mining* ("TSM") protocols, including Indigenous & Community Relations, Biodiversity Conservation, Climate Change, Safety & Health, Tailings Management and Crisis Management. These protocols are a means to align operations and to demonstrate our good practices and commitment to ESG matters

• All operations continued to implement and improve performance as measured against the TSM protocols, Responsible Gold Mining Principles, Voluntary Principles on Security and Human Rights and our internal Risk Management & Monitoring System

• The Company tracks its performance against several key measurable indices, both environmental (including GHG Emissions, Fresh Water Intensity, Total Waste and Tailings, and Total Energy Consumption) as well as social (Combined Lost-Time Accidents and Economic Contributions to the communities we operate in)

<u>Judgment Based and other Considerations:</u> 

• The Company continues to address investor interest in environmental and sustainability matters through disclosure of its environmental and sustainability policies and technical details as well as through direct investor engagement (see "Shareholder Engagement" on page [29](#SHEG) of this Circular)

• In 2025, the Company maintained its Net Zero Carbon by 2050 target and its -30% by 2030 target. The Company continues to advance in a prudent manner with respect to developing plans to achieve these targets. The Company believes it is among the lowest GHG emission intensity gold producers

• In 2025, the Company demonstrated its commitment to reconciliation with Indigenous Nations in several ways, including by (i) implementing the Company's Reconciliation Action Plan with Indigenous Peoples, (ii) signing agreements with the Kitcisakik and Lac Simon First Nations for the Akasaba project in Quebec and with the Matachewan First Nation for the Upper Beaver

#### 2025 Individual Performance Factors for Named Executive Officers
The individual performance factor is determined each year during the annual review process and is set by the Compensation Committee with respect to the Chief Executive Officer and by the Chief Executive Officer with respect to the other Named Executive Officers. The individual performance factor is set between 0% and 150%.

The Compensation Committee can augment the bonus payout to the Chief Executive Officer to a discretionary amount by adjusting the maximum individual performance factor beyond 150%. The Chief Executive Officer can augment the bonus payout to the other Named Executive Officers to a discretionary amount by adjusting the maximum individual performance factor beyond 150%. However, notwithstanding the exercise of such discretion, in all cases the total short-term incentive payment cannot exceed the maximum incentive payout for the given position and the Compensation Committee expects that this discretion would only be exercised in extraordinary circumstances.

b. #### Long-Term Incentives
<u>Philosophy</u> 

The Company's policy with respect to long-term incentive awards is to ensure alignment between management's and key employee's long-term interests with those of shareholders and to retain key management and employees. RSUs and PSUs provide alignment between officers' compensation and increases in the value of the Company's common shares, and therefore create an incentive to enhance shareholder value over the long-term. Since 2023, Option grants have not formed part of the compensation of executives at the level of Vice-President and above. Grants of RSUs and PSUs are based on four factors:

• the individual's performance;

• the individual's level of responsibility within the Company and ability to create or enhance future value for shareholders;

• the number and value of RSUs and PSUs previously issued to the individual; and

• the Company's performance and past practices.

The Compensation Committee believes direct ownership of shares and share units more fully aligns management and shareholder interests and, since 2023, awards only RSUs and PSUs to executives at the level of Vice-President and above (this has been the policy for the Chief Executive Officer since 2013). Long-term incentives for other key employees are provided through a combination of RSUs, PSUs and/or Options granted under the RSU Plan, the PSU Plan and the Stock Option Plan, respectively.

Long-term incentives are an integral part of the compensation strategy of the Company. The Internal Survey, described above, compares the long-term incentive grants issued to the Company's executive officers relative to the companies surveyed. There is no limit on the number of RSUs granted per year under the RSU Plan or PSUs granted per year under the PSU Plan.

The four factors outlined above provide a broad framework within which the Company evaluates the performance of the individual and assesses the potential value each individual can contribute to the future success of the Company. Long-term incentive grants are then awarded on this basis. There is no weighting of factors or specific measures that an individual must achieve; it is a comprehensive evaluation based on the performance, potential contributions and value of the individual to the business of the Company. In addition, for certain positions, including the Chief Executive Officer, the Compensation Committee has set fixed annual awards of RSUs and PSUs. As the number of RSUs and PSUs awarded to President & Chief Executive Officer are fixed, the value of these awards fluctuates directly with changes in the Company's share price which the Compensation Committee believes creates direct alignment with shareholders.

In connection with the evaluation of management's performance conducted near the end of each fiscal year, the Compensation Committee makes a recommendation with respect to the number of RSUs and PSUs to be granted to officers of the Company. If such recommendation is deemed acceptable to the Board of Directors, the Board of Directors approves the award of the RSUs and PSUs to be granted in December of the following year in order to more closely align executive compensation with shareholder performance and be able to disclose information on executive compensation in comparison with shareholder performance in a more meaningful way.

Beginning in 2023, the Compensation Committee adjusted the Company's practice with respect to the granting of RSUs and PSUs. With the introduction of PSUs to the Company's compensation plan in 2016, the Compensation Committee had historically recommended a 50/50 ratio of PSUs to RSUs when making grant recommendations. In order to (i) increase the proportion of long term equity "at risk", (ii) be responsive to the evolution of equity grant best practices, (iii) be responsive to shareholder feedback and (iv) further increase alignment with shareholders, the Compensation Committee has now determined to recommend a 60/40 ratio of PSUs to RSUs when making grant recommendations. The Compensation Committee remains committed to fixed grant practices of RSUs and PSUs for the Chief Executive Officer and expects to continue this practice with the new 60/40 PSU to RSU ratio — that is, the Chief Executive Officer will receive 48,000 PSUs and 32,000 RSUs for an aggregate grant of 80,000 units annually (rather than the prior practice of receiving 40,000 PSUs and 40,000 RSUs for an aggregate grant of 80,000 units).

Section 3: Compensation and Other Information

The Company's practices with respect to the vesting of each of RSUs and PSUs are set out below.

<u>RSUs</u> 

The Compensation Committee's practice is to recommend to award RSUs that vest on December 31 or the last trading day of the third calendar year following the year in respect of which the RSUs were granted. A description of the RSU Plan is set out under "RSU Plan" beginning on page [56](#RSUP) of this Circular.

<u>PSUs</u> 

The Compensation Committee's practice is to recommend to award PSUs that vest on December 31 or the last trading day of the third calendar year following the year in respect to which the PSUs were granted. A description of the PSU Plan is set out under "PSU Plan" beginning on page [56](#PSUP) of this Circular.

<u>2025 PSU Vesting (2023 Grants)</u> 

PSUs now form 60% of the equity component of long-term incentive compensation for the President & Chief Executive Officer and for the other Named Executive Officers as the Company has now eliminated Option grants to executives at the level of Vice- President and above and increased the relative number of PSUs as compared to RSUs that are granted.

The table below sets out the value of PSUs for each Named Executive Officer that vested in 2025, based on the Company's performance for the 2023-2025 period. The Performance Measurement and targets for the PSUs granted in 2025 (and that will vest in 2027) will be calculated in the same manner as for the PSUs that vested in 2025, and, accordingly, the Company has disclosed the vesting conditions for PSUs granted under the PSU Plan.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; (1)

The valuation of the grants of PSUs was calculated based on the "Market Price" of the Company's common shares as provided for in the PSU Plan at the time of grant, being C$73.45. The rate of exchange used to convert Canadian to U.S. dollars was the average of the daily 2023 exchange rates reported by the Bank of Canada, being C$1.00 equals US$0.7409.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; (2)

The share price shown represents the price of the common shares of the Company on the TSX at the time of vesting, being C$232.76. The rate of exchange used to convert Canadian to U.S. dollars was the average of the daily 2025 exchange rates reported by the Bank of Canada, being C$1.00 equals US$0.7154.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; (3)

The valuation of the PSUs at vesting was calculated based on the number of PSUs granted, multiplied by the PSU performance measurement, multiplied by the price of the common shares of the Company on the TSX at the time of vesting. The rate of exchange used to convert Canadian to U.S. dollars was the average of the daily 2025 exchange rates reported by the Bank of Canada, being C$1.00 equals US$0.7154.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; (4)

Mr. Porter joined the Company and was appointed Executive Vice-President, Finance and Chief Financial Officer in May, 2023. Accordingly, he did not hold any PSUs granted in 2023 that vested in 2025.

The "Performance Measurement" for PSUs is based on four factors: (1) Relative Total Shareholder Return Rank (37.5%) ("TSR"); (2) Relative Multiple to NAV Rank (37.5%) ("Multiple"); (3) Production (12.5%) ("Production"); and (4) AISC per ounce (12.5%).

The selection of peer group companies for purposes of TSR and Multiple factor calculations is based on criteria including: industry (gold); business scope (exploration, development and production); size (market capitalization; revenue; assets); and peers of peers (companies commonly used as peers of other companies). The Company has selected a different peer group for purposes of assessing TSR and the Multiple factors as compared to the Internal Survey and for Total Shareholder Return in connection with the STIP. The TSR and Multiple factors comprise 75% of the weighting of PSU performance and are measured over a period of almost three years. A larger peer group is used as the Company believes that the use of a smaller peer group can create results that are very volatile because relative positioning can be significantly affected by the performance of one company within the group — a larger group smooths out this volatility and, the Company believes, presents a more balanced picture of actual performance over the period being measured. In addition, the peer group companies for purposes of TSR and Multiple are focused on gold mining companies, while the Internal Survey peer group also includes other mining companies and adjacent industries. As TSR is heavily influenced by fluctuations in the price of gold and the market's approach to selecting appropriate Multiple factors differs across industries, the Company believes this focus on gold mining companies is appropriate.

(1) Percentile rank is based on information reported as of December 31, 2025.

The calculation of PSU awards is determined, in part, based on the Company's TSR and Multiple relative to peer group companies, as follows:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **Company TSR and Multiple Rank**  | **Payout Percentage**  |
| 1  | 200%  |
| 2 or 3 | 175%  |
| 4 or 5 | 150%  |
| 6 or 7 | 125%  |
| 8 or 9 | 100%  |
| 10 or 11 | 75%  |
| 12 or 13 | 50%  |
| 14 or 15 | 25%  |
| Less than 15 | 0%  |

For Production, the payout performance is as follows:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **Production<sup>(1)</sup>**  | **Payout Percentage**  |
| Equal to or more than 6.0% above Production Guidance | 200%  |
| Equal to or more than 4.5% above Production Guidance | 175%  |
| Equal to or more than 3.0% above Production Guidance | 150%  |
| Equal to or more than 1.5% above Production Guidance | 125%  |
| At or within 1.5% of the midpoint of Production Guidance | 100%  |
| Equal to or more than 1.5% below Production Guidance | 75%  |

For AISC, the payout performance is as follows:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **AISC<sup>(1)</sup>**  | **Payout Percentage**  |
| Equal to or more than 6.0% below AISC Guidance | 200%  |

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; (1)

Where a guidance range has been provided, the calculation will be made based on the mid-point of that guidance range.

Overall, the Company had very strong performance on the Multiple element, weaker performance on the three-year TSR and average performance on the Production and AISC elements in the 2023-2025 period, with the following results:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; (1)

TSR — 12<sup>th</sup> for a performance score of 50%;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; (2)

Multiple — 4<sup>th</sup> for a performance score of 150%;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; (3)

Production — was above guidance in 2023 by 3.0% for a performance score of 150% and was above guidance in 2024 by 1.0% for a performance score of 100%; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; (4)

AISC — were above guidance in 2023 by 1.2% for a performance score of 100% and were above guidance in 2024 by 1.1% for a performance score of 100%.

<u>Final Calculation</u> 

The "Performance Measurement" for purposes of the 2023 grant of PSUs is equal to: (37.5% × A) + (37.5% × B) + (12.5% × C) + (12.5% × D)

where:

A = Relative Total Shareholder Return Rank Payout Percentage

B = Relative Multiple to NAV Rank Payout Percentage

C = Production Guidance Payout Percentage

D = AISC Guidance Payout Percentage

The Performance Measurement and targets for the PSUs granted in 2025 (and that will vest in 2027) will be calculated in the same manner as for the PSUs that vested in 2025, and accordingly the Company has disclosed the vesting conditions for PSUs granted under the PSU Plan.

*Pensions* 

A description of the retirement benefits made available to the Company's Named Executive Officers is set out under "Pension Plan Benefits" beginning on page [62](#PPBF) of this Circular.

*Executive Incentive Compensation Recoupment Policy* 

The Company has adopted a recoupment policy (the "Recoupment Policy") to assist in the management of compensation related risk. Under the Recoupment Policy, the Chief Executive Officer and each executive at the level of Executive Vice-President and higher (which includes the Chief Financial Officer, each an "Executive"), is subject to having his or her incentive compensation (including STIP awards, Options, RSUs and PSUs) clawed back in circumstances where the Board of Directors has determined that the Executive has engaged in wrongdoing. In 2023, the Company supplemented the Recoupment Policy by amending it to explicitly comply with the requirements of Section 10D of the United States Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The Recoupment Policy does not require that the financial statements of the Company are restated in order for an Executive to have his or her annual incentive compensation clawed back.

Section 3: Compensation and Other Information

*Share Ownership* 

In order to align the interests of the Company and those of its officers and employees, the Company encourages ownership of common shares and facilitates this through its RSU Plan, PSU Plan, Stock Option Plan and Incentive Share Purchase Plan. Details of these plans can be found on pages [56](#RSUP) to [62](#PPBF) of this Circular. The Company has also adopted executive common share ownership policies: the Chief Executive Officer is required to have or own at least 125,000 common shares or RSUs of the Company (Mr. Al-Joundi, the current President & Chief Executive Officer of the Company, meets this equity ownership requirement); Executive Vice-Presidents and Senior Vice-Presidents of the Company are required to have or own at least 30,000 common shares or RSUs of the Company; and Vice- Presidents of the Company are required to have or own at least 15,000 common shares or RSUs of the Company. Executives of the Company have five years from the date of appointment to meet this common share ownership requirement. For purposes of the share ownership requirement, only common shares and RSUs are included when determining if an executive has satisfied the minimum ownership requirement — PSUs issued pursuant to the PSU Plan (if any) and Options issued pursuant to the Stock Option Plan (if any) are not included. As a result of the adjustment to LTIP grant practices in 2023, RSUs are granted to executives in December of the year following the year in respect of which the RSUs were earned (see "RSU Plan" beginning on page [56](#RSUP) of this Circular) — such RSUs that have been earned are included when determining if an executive has satisfied the minimum ownership requirement.

The following table sets out each senior officer's holdings of common shares and RSUs of the Company as at March 6, 2026:

Section 3: Compensation and Other Information

### Performance Graph
The following graph compares the total cumulative return of $100 invested in the Company's common shares on December 31, 2020 with the cumulative total return for each of the S&P/TSX Composite Index and S&P/TSX Global Gold Index over the five-year period ended December 31, 2025 (in each case, assuming reinvestment of dividends). The graph below shows what a $100 investment in each of the above mentioned indices and in the Company's common shares, made at December 31, 2020, would be worth during the five years following the initial investment.

![[MISSING IMAGE: lc_agnicoeaglevssp.jpg]](lc_agnicoeaglevssp.jpg)

(1) Assumes reinvestment of dividends of $1.40 paid in 2021 and $1.60 paid in each of 2022-2025.

The price of the Company's common shares have outperformed the S&P/TSX Global Gold Index and the S&P/TSX Composite Index during the five-year period ended December 31, 2025. The trend in compensation of the Named Executive Officers has generally been consistent with share price performance over this period. To illustrate, the total compensation of the Chief Executive Officer decreased in 2022 when the share performance increased largely as a result of the appointment of a new Chief Executive Officer during the year; remained stable in 2023 when the share performance increased; and increased in 2024 and 2025 when the share performance increased significantly. However, the total compensation of the Chief Executive Officer increased in 2021 when the share performance decreased, largely as a result of the timing of the calculation of the value of equity awards. In order to address the misalignment achieved in 2021, the Company has adjusted its timing of LTIP grant practices to more closely align executive compensation with share price performance and be able to disclose information on executive compensation in comparison with shareholder performance in a more meaningful way.

Overall, the Company believes this trend reflects a strong alignment of pay and performance and a balanced approach to compensation. This alignment is expected be even greater going forward as a result of the changes to the Company's LTIP grant practices. A substantial element of Named Executive Officer compensation (approximately 76% in total in 2025) is comprised of long-term incentives with the final value based on the future common share performance of the Company, directly aligning share price performance and compensation (see "Long-Term Incentive Compensation — RSUs and PSUs").

All compensation is paid in Canadian dollars and reported in U.S. dollars. The values for 2025 were converted to U.S. dollars using the average of the daily 2025 exchange rates reported by the Bank of Canada, being C$1.00 equals US$0.7154. The values for 2024 were converted to U.S. dollars using the average of the daily 2024 exchange rates reported by the Bank of Canada, being C$1.00 equals US$0.7300. The values for 2023 were converted to U.S. dollars using the average of the daily 2023 exchange rates reported by the Bank of Canada, being C$1.00 equals US$0.7409.

Represents the Company's contribution to common shares purchased by the NEOs pursuant to the Incentive Share Purchase Plan, being no more than 5% of their prior year base annual salary.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; (4)

Represents the fair value of the RSUs/PSUs granted to the respective NEOs, which were calculated by multiplying the number of RSUs/PSUs granted by C$242.64 (2024 — C$112.47; 2023 — C$73.45), being the "Market Price" of the Company's common shares as provided for in the RSU Plan and PSU Plan. Management uses "Market Price" calculations to assess the estimated value of RSU grants and PSU grants when determining the value of proposed long-term incentive awards, and therefore this method of valuation is used here. Other compensation fair value amounts were used for accounting purposes (See notes 16(c)-(d) to the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2025). In the case of Mr. Porter, the fair value of the RSUs granted in 2023 was calculated by multiplying the number RSUs granted by C$76.79, being the "Market Price" of the Company's common shares as provided for in the RSU Plan — see footnote 7 below.

Mr. Porter joined the Company and was appointed Executive Vice-President, Finance and Chief Financial Officer on May 1, 2023. In connection with the hiring of Mr. Porter, Mr. Porter was awarded an initial grant of C$2,500,000 in value of RSUs. These RSUs vest in accordance with the terms of the RSU Plan (i.e., on December 31 of the third calendar year following the year in respect of which the RSUs were granted). In determining the amount of the RSU grant for Mr. Porter, the Board considered, among other things, (i) the fact that Mr. Porter would be forfeiting approximately C$3,500,000 in value of equity grants received from his former employer that expired at the time Mr. Porter resigned from his former role to accept employment with the Company, (ii) the retention benefit provided by such grant given the period until such grant vests as well as the delay until Mr. Porter's initial grant of RSUs and PSUs under the Company's regular LTIP program and the importance of a strong retention incentive, and (iii) the value of the grant relative to Mr. Porter's expected total compensation in future years.

The following table sets out (i) the aggregate, cash and non-cash compensation of the Company's Named Executive Officers, (ii) the aggregate, cash and non-cash compensation of the Company's Named Executive Officers as a percentage of the of the cash provided by operating activities of the Company, and (iii) the Company's market capitalization at December 31, in each case for the last five years.

Section 3: Compensation and Other Information

As shown in the table above, the total cash and non-cash compensation paid to the Company's Named Executive Officers in 2025 is the lowest amount in the period when measured as a percent of the cash provided by operating activities. The increase in the total cash and non-cash compensation paid to the Company's Named Executive Officers in 2025 when compared to 2024 was almost entirely a result of the significant increase in the Company's share price during the period (from C$112.46 at year-end 2024 to C$232.76 at year-end 2025, an increase of approximately 107%), demonstrating strong alignment of pay with performance.

#### RSU Plan
The RSU Plan was established by the Company to assist in the retention of the Company's employees, officers and directors by providing non-dilutive common shares to reward the individual performance of participants. Grants of RSUs are determined by the Compensation Committee (for directors and officers) or the Chief Executive Officer (for employees). Where the grant of RSUs is given as a dollar value, the number of RSUs awarded to a participant is determined by dividing the dollar value by the "Market Price" on the grant date. For the purposes of the RSU Plan, the "Market Price" is the simple average of the high and low trading prices of the Company's common shares on the TSX for the 5-day trading period immediately prior to the grant date (or, if the common shares did not trade on the TSX, the simple average of the high and low trading prices of the common shares on the New York Stock Exchange (the "NYSE") during such 5-day trading period, or if the common shares did not trade on the TSX or NYSE, the simple average of the high and low trading prices of the common shares on a stock exchange in Canada where the common shares are listed during such 5-day period, or if the common shares do not trade on any such stock exchange, the simple average of the bid and ask prices of the common shares on the TSX during such 5-day trading period). RSU vesting dates are specified in the RSU Plan. RSUs vest on December 31 (or the last business day) of the third calendar year following the year in respect of which the RSUs were granted. Since 2023, RSUs are granted to executives in December of the year following the year in respect of which the RSUs were earned. RSUs can vest on an earlier date than the vesting date as determined by the Compensation Committee in its sole discretion (for directors and officers) or the Chief Executive Officer in his sole discretion (for employees). The value of dividends declared on non-vested RSUs are paid to the participant as a lump-sum amount upon the vesting of the RSUs. Once vested, the common shares purchased by a third-party administrative agent on the open market underlying the RSUs are transferred to a participant's vested RSU account (net of applicable tax) and may be sold at the request of the participant. The common shares sold by the administrative agent for tax purposes at the time of vesting are sold automatically by the administrative agent without the instructions or direction of the participant and, where required, the sale transaction is reported by the participant in accordance with applicable disclosure requirements at the time of the transaction.

If a participant's employment with the Company terminates as a result of a change of control or terminates within a 12-month period following a change of control, the participant's RSUs vest immediately following such termination (i.e., a "double trigger"). If a participant's employment is terminated for cause (as defined in the RSU Plan), the participant immediately forfeits all rights in respect of any non-vested RSUs. If a participant's employment is terminated without cause, or if the participant retires, dies while in the service of the Company or becomes disabled and is terminated by the Company due to such disability, or if the participant is a director who resigns from the Board of Directors, the participant's non-vested RSUs vest immediately. If a participant (who is not a director) resigns from the service of the Company, the participant immediately forfeits all rights in respect of any non-vested RSUs, unless otherwise determined by the Compensation Committee (for officers) or the Chief Executive Officer (for employees).

In the event of a change of control of the Company, the RSU Plan requires the acquiring or surviving entity to assume all outstanding RSUs or substitute similar share units for the outstanding RSUs. If the acquiring or surviving entity fails to do so or if the Compensation Committee otherwise determines in its sole discretion, the RSU Plan will terminate and all outstanding RSUs will be deemed to be vested.

Except as required by law or marriage breakdown orders or agreements, the rights of a participant under the RSU Plan are non- transferrable. The rights and obligations of the Company under the RSU Plan may be assigned by the Company to a successor in the business of the Company, to any corporation resulting from any amalgamation, reorganization, combination, merger or arrangement of the Company or to any corporation acquiring all or substantially all of the assets or business of the Company. In the event of a merger, consolidation, spin-off or other distribution other than normal distributions to the Company's shareholders, the Board of Directors may in its sole discretion adjust the number or type of shares on which the RSUs are based or the number of RSUs granted to participants.

#### PSU Plan
The PSU Plan was established by the Company to assist in the retention of the Company's senior officers by providing non-dilutive common shares to reward the performance of senior officers and align the performance of senior officers with the Company's shareholders. Grants of PSUs are determined by the Compensation Committee. Where the grant of PSUs is given as a dollar value, the number of PSUs awarded to a participant is determined by dividing the dollar value by the "Market Price" on the grant date. For the purposes of the PSU Plan, the "Market Price" is the simple average of the high and low trading prices of the Company's common shares on the TSX for the 5-day trading period immediately prior to the grant date (or, if the common shares did not trade on the TSX, the simple average of the high and low trading prices of the common shares on the NYSE during such 5-day trading period, or if the common shares did not trade on the TSX or NYSE, the simple average of the high and low trading prices of the common shares on a stock exchange in Canada where the common shares are listed during such 5-day period, or if the common shares do not trade on any such stock exchange, the simple average of the bid and ask prices of the common shares on the TSX during such 5-day trading period). The value of dividends declared on non-vested PSUs (to a maximum amount of the initial PSU grant) are paid to the participant as a lump-sum payment upon the vesting of the PSUs. Once vested, the common shares

Section 3: Compensation and Other Information

purchased by a third-party administration agent on the open market underlying the PSUs are, at the option of the Company: transferred to a participant's vested PSU account (net of applicable tax) and may be sold at the request of the participant, or settled in cash. The common shares sold by the administrative agent for tax purposes at the time of vesting are sold automatically by the administrative agent without the instructions or direction of the participant and, where required, the sale transaction is reported by the participant in accordance with applicable disclosure requirements at the time of the transaction.

PSUs vest on December 31 (or the last business day) of the third calendar year following the year in respect of which the PSUs were granted. Since 2023, PSUs are granted to executives in December of the year following the year in respect of which the PSUs were earned. After November 20 in the year of vesting, the Compensation Committee determines the "Performance Measurement" that will apply to the PSUs vesting on December 31 of such year. The "Performance Measurement" in respect of PSUs is determined by the Compensation Committee based on the following four factors: (1) "Relative Total Shareholder Return Rank", calculated by (a) adding (i) the volume weighted average trading price of the Company's common shares on the TSX (or, if the common shares did not trade on the TSX, such other public stock exchange on which the common shares are listed with the greatest volume of trading) for the 5-day trading period immediately preceding the last trading day before November 20 of the year of vesting and (ii) the total value of dividends paid by the Company per common share between January 1 of the year of grant and November 20 of the year of vesting, and (b) dividing the sum of (i) and (ii) by the volume weighted average trading price of the Company's common shares on the TSX (or, if the common shares did not trade on the TSX, such other public stock exchange on which the common shares are listed with the greatest volume of trading) for the 5-day trading period immediately preceding January 1 of the year of grant; (2) "Relative Multiple to NAV Rank", defined as the premium (or discount) at which a stock is valued in relation to its net asset value (calculated as the value of a company's assets less the value of its liabilities); (3) "Production", determined based on the Company's actual production for a calendar year as a percentage of the annual guidance for production published in the Company's February news release reporting its fourth quarter and year-end performance for the preceding year; and (4) "All-In Sustaining Costs", determined based on the Company's actual all-in sustaining costs for a calendar year as a percentage of the annual guidance for all-in sustaining costs published in the Company's February news release reporting its fourth quarter and year-end performance for the preceding year. The Relative Total Shareholder Return Rank and the Relative Multiple to NAV Rank are measured against a peer group, which may be modified by the Compensation Committee from time to time. Each of the Relative Total Shareholder Return Rank and the Relative Multiple to NAV Rank account for 37.5% of the Performance Measurement, and each of the Production and All-In Sustaining Costs metrics account for 12.5% of the Performance Measurement. On the basis of the Performance Measurement, the potential payout ranges from a minimum of 0% to a maximum of 200% of the initial PSU grant. Notwithstanding the relative rank of the Company within the Relative Total Shareholder Return Rank, should the absolute total shareholder return for the Company be negative, the PSU award for this metric is capped at a maximum amount of 100%. The Performance Measurement and targets for the PSUs granted in 2025 (and that will vest in 2027) will be calculated in the same manner as for the PSUs that vested in 2025, and accordingly the Company has disclosed the vesting conditions for PSUs granted under the PSU Plan — see "2025 PSU Vesting (2023 Grants)" above.

If a participant's employment with the Company terminates as a result of a change of control or terminates within a 12-month period following a change of control, the participant's PSUs vest immediately following such termination (i.e., a "double trigger") and the "Performance Measurement" is calculated at such time. If a participant's employment is terminated for cause (as defined in the PSU Plan), the participant immediately forfeits all rights in respect of any non-vested PSUs. If a participant retires or dies while in the service of the Company, the participant's non-vested PSUs vest immediately based on target performance. If a participant becomes disabled and is terminated by the Company due to such disability, the participant's non-vested PSUs will continue to vest following the participant's termination date. If a participant's employment is terminated without cause or if a participant resigns from the service of the Company, the participant forfeits all rights in respect of any non-vested PSUs, unless otherwise determined by the Compensation Committee.

In the event of a change of control of the Company, the PSU Plan requires the acquiring or surviving entity to assume all outstanding PSUs or substitute similar share units for the outstanding PSUs. If the acquiring or surviving entity fails to do so or if the Compensation Committee otherwise determines in its sole discretion, the PSU Plan will terminate and all outstanding PSUs will be deemed to be vested.

Except as required by law or marriage breakdown orders or agreements, the rights of a participant under the PSU Plan are non- transferrable. The rights and obligations of the Company under the PSU Plan may be assigned by the Company to a successor in the business of the Company, to any corporation resulting from any amalgamation, reorganization, combination, merger or arrangement of the Company or to any corporation acquiring all or substantially all of the assets or business of the Company. In the event of a merger, consolidation, spin-off or other distribution other than normal distributions to the Company's shareholders, the Board of Directors may in its sole discretion adjust the number or type of shares on which the PSUs are based or the number of PSUs granted to participants.

#### Stock Option Plan
Under the Stock Option Plan, Options to purchase common shares may be granted to officers, employees and consultants of the Company. Consistent with the Company's practice of not granting Options to the Chief Executive Officer beginning in 2013, and the gradual reduction of Options granted to other executives, since 2023, Options are no longer granted to executives at the level of Vice-President and above.

The exercise price of Options granted may be denominated in Canadian dollars or United States dollars, and is determined by the Board of Directors, but generally may not be less than the closing market price for the common shares of the Company on the TSX

Section 3: Compensation and Other Information

(for Options with an exercise price denominated in Canadian dollars) or the NYSE (for Options with an exercise price denominated in United States dollars) on the trading day prior to the date of grant. The maximum term of Options granted under the Stock Option Plan is five years and the maximum number of Options that can be issued in any year is 2% of the Company's outstanding common shares (totaling 10,021,104 Options as at March 6, 2026). A maximum of 25% of the Options granted in an Option grant vest upon 30 days after the date granted with the remaining Options vesting equally on the next three anniversaries of the Option grant date. In 2024, the Company amended the Stock Option Plan to provide that upon retirement from the Company (in accordance with the terms of the Stock Option Plan), all Options held by the retiree vest upon retirement.

The number of common shares which may be reserved for issuance to any one person pursuant to Options (under the Stock Option Plan or otherwise), warrants, share purchase plans or other compensation arrangements may not exceed 5% of the outstanding common shares. Additionally, the number of common shares which may be issuable to insiders of the Company pursuant to Options (under the Stock Option Plan or otherwise), warrants, share purchase plans or other compensation arrangements, at any time, cannot exceed 10% of outstanding common shares and the number of common shares issued to insiders of the Company pursuant to Options (under the Stock Option Plan or otherwise), warrants, share purchase plans or other compensation arrangements, within any one year period, cannot exceed 10% of the outstanding common shares.

The Stock Option Plan provides for the termination of an Option held by an Option holder in the following circumstances:

• the Option expires (which must be no later than five years after the Option was granted);

• 30 days after the Option holder ceases to be an employee, officer or consultant to the Company or any subsidiary of the Company; and

• twelve months after the death of the Option holder.

An Option granted under the Stock Option Plan may only be assigned to eligible assignees, including a spouse, a minor child, a minor grandchild, a trust governed by a registered retirement savings plan of such participant, a corporation controlled by such participant and of which all other shareholders are eligible assignees or a family trust of which such participant is a trustee and of which all beneficiaries are eligible assignees. Assignments must be approved by the Board of Directors and any stock exchange or other authority.

The Board of Directors may amend or revise the terms of the Stock Option Plan without the approval of shareholders as permitted by law and subject to any required approval by any stock exchange or other authority, including amendments of a "housekeeping" nature, amendments necessary to comply with applicable law (including, without limitation, the rules, regulations and policies of the TSX), amendments respecting administration of the Stock Option Plan (provided such amendment does not entail an extension beyond the original expiry date), any amendment to the vesting provisions of the Stock Option Plan or any Option, any amendment to the early termination provisions of the Stock Option Plan or any Option, whether or not such Option is held by an insider (provided such amendment does not entail an extension beyond the original expiry date), the addition or modification of a cashless exercise feature, amendments necessary to suspend or terminate the Stock Option Plan and any other amendment, whether fundamental or otherwise, not requiring shareholder approval under applicable law (including, without limitation, the rules, regulations and policies of the TSX). No amendment or revision to the Stock Option Plan which adversely affects the rights of any Option holder under any Option granted under the Stock Option Plan can be made without the consent of the Option holder whose rights are being affected.

In addition, no amendments to the Stock Option Plan to increase the maximum number of common shares reserved for issuance, to reduce the exercise price for any Option, to extend the term of an Option, to increase any limit on grants of Options to insiders of the Company, to amend the designation of who is an eligible participant or eligible assignee or to grant additional powers to the Board of Directors to amend the Stock Option Plan or entitlements can be made without first obtaining the approval of the Company's shareholders. In response to a TSX staff notice regarding amendments to security based compensation arrangements, the Stock Option Plan was amended in 2007 such that where the Company has imposed a blackout period that falls within ten trading days of the expiry of an Option, such Option's expiry date shall be the tenth day following the termination of the blackout period. The Stock Option Plan does not expressly entitle participants to convert an Option into a stock appreciation right.

Under the Stock Option Plan, only eligible persons who are not officers of the Company are entitled to receive loans (on a non-recourse or limited recourse basis or otherwise), guarantees or other support arrangements from the Company to facilitate Option exercises. During 2025, no loans, guarantees or other financial assistance were provided under the Stock Option Plan.

The total number of common shares available for issuance under the Stock Option Plan is 38,700,000 and 37,692,975 common shares have been issued in connection with the exercise of Options since the inception of the Stock Option Plan, representing 7.72% and 7.52% of the Company's 501,055,216 common shares issued and outstanding as of March 6, 2026.

The number of common shares currently available for issuance under the Stock Option Plan is 2,433,524 common shares (comprised of 1,426,499 common shares relating to Options issued but unexercised and 1,007,025 common shares relating to Options available to be issued), representing 0.49% of the Company's 501,055,216 common shares issued and outstanding as at March 6, 2026.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; (1)

For Messrs. Robitaille and Girard, the amounts shown represent the awarded Options that vested in 2025; the value is calculated as the number of Options that vested multiplied by the price of the common shares of the Company on the TSX on the relevant vesting date being C$70.25 (January 4, 2025), less the applicable exercise price for such Options. The rate of exchange used to convert Canadian to U.S. dollars was the average of the daily 2025 exchange rates reported by the Bank of Canada, being C$1.00 equals US$0.7154. None of Mr. Al-Joundi, Mr. Porter or Ms. Vaz have received Options.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; (2)

Represents RSUs and PSUs that vested in 2025; the value is calculated as the number of RSUs and PSUs that vested in 2025 multiplied by C$232.76 (the price of the common shares of the Company on the TSX at the time of vesting). The rate of exchange used to convert Canadian to U.S. dollars was the average of the daily 2025 exchange rates reported by the Bank of Canada, being C$1.00 equals US$0.7154.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; (3)

Represents the STIP payments received in 2025. The rate of exchange used to convert Canadian to U.S. dollars was the average of the daily 2025 exchange rates reported by the Bank of Canada, being C$1.00 equals US$0.7154.

The following table compares the value of total direct compensation awarded to Mr. Al-Joundi, the Company's Chief Executive Officer at December 31, 2025, for each of the past five years to the realized and realizable value as at December 31, 2025. The difference between the "Total Direct Compensation Awarded" and the "Realized Value" represents (i) changes in the value of the Company's common shares in the case of RSUs and PSUs; and (ii) the "Performance Measurement" in the case of PSUs. As the RSUs and PSUs vest after approximately three years and the Performance Measurement is measured over a period of approximately three years, the total shareholder return in any given year is not directly comparable. This table demonstrates (i) that the total shareholder return of the Company's shareholders compares well to the changes in realized pay experienced by Mr. Al-Joundi over the period, and (ii) strong alignment between pay and performance over time.

In 2025, Messrs. Robitaille and Girard (none of Mr. Al-Joundi, Mr. Porter or Ms. Vaz have received Options) exercised Options to receive notional proceeds of, in aggregate, $3,568,418; the Company received proceeds from the exercise of these Options of $2,763,937. These amounts were originally denominated in Canadian dollars and were converted to U.S. dollars using the average of the daily 2025 exchange rates reported by the Bank of Canada, being C$1.00 equals US$0.7154. The Options exercised by Messrs. Robitaille and Girard were granted prior to 2023, when the Company eliminated the granting of Options for executives at the level of Vice-President and above.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; (5)

As at December 31, 2025, there were no outstanding equity awards that involved issuances of equity securities from treasury other than Options.

#### Incentive Share Purchase Plan
In 1997, the shareholders of the Company approved the Incentive Share Purchase Plan to encourage directors, officers and full- time employees of the Company to purchase common shares of the Company. In 2009, the Incentive Share Purchase Plan was amended to prohibit non-executive directors from participating in the plan. Full-time employees who have been continuously employed by the Company or its subsidiaries for at least 12 months are eligible at the beginning of each fiscal year to elect to participate in the Incentive Share Purchase Plan. The Compensation Committee may waive such 12 month period or refuse any person or group of persons the right to participate or continue to participate in the Incentive Share Purchase Plan.

Eligible employees may contribute up to 10% of their prior-year base annual salary through monthly payroll deductions or quarterly payments by cheque. The Company makes a matching contribution equal to no more than 50% of the participant's contributions to the Incentive Share Purchase Plan. On March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 of each year (or if such day is not a business day, on the immediately following business day), the Company issues common shares to each participant equal in value to the total contributions on the participant's behalf under the Incentive Share Purchase Plan (i.e., participant and Company contributions) converted into common shares at the "Market Price" on the date of issuance (rounded down to the lowest number of whole common shares). For the purposes of the Incentive Share Purchase Plan, the "Market Price" is the simple average of the high and low trading prices of the Company's common shares on the TSX for the 5-day trading period immediately prior to the issuance date (or, if the common shares did not trade on the TSX, the simple average of the high and low trading prices of the common shares on the NYSE during such 5-day trading period, or if the common shares did not trade on the TSX or NYSE, the simple average of the high and low trading prices of the common shares on a stock exchange in Canada where the common shares are listed during such 5-day period, or if the common shares do not trade on any such stock exchange, the simple average of the bid and ask prices of the common shares on the TSX during such 5-day trading period). Other than as set out above, there is no limit to the participation of insiders in the Incentive Share Purchase Plan.

There is a one-year restricted period during which the participant is not permitted to sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of the common shares acquired through the Incentive Share Purchase Plan. During the one-year restricted period, participants have the right to: (i) exercise the votes attached to the participant's common shares, (ii) all cash dividends declared and paid in respect of the participant's common shares, and (iii) transfer, sell or tender any or all of the participant's common shares pursuant to a *bona fide* third-party take-over bid. The one-year restricted period commences on the date the common shares are issued to the participant under the Incentive Share Purchase Plan. The Chief Executive Officer (or such person designated by the Chief Executive Officer) has discretion to waive the one-year restricted period in respect of the common shares issued under the Incentive Share Purchase Plan held by all participants other than the Chief Executive Officer. The Compensation Committee has discretion to waive the one-year restricted period in respect of the common shares issued under the Incentive Share Purchase Plan held by the Chief Executive Officer. All benefits and rights accruing to any participant pursuant to the Incentive Share Purchase Plan shall not be transferrable unless provided under the Incentive Share Purchase Plan. All restrictions on the sale, transfer or other disposal of common shares issued under the Incentive Share Purchase Plan immediately lapse on termination of employment or death. The one-year restricted period for common shares acquired through the Incentive Share Purchase Plan is not applicable to U.S. participants.

[**TABLE OF CONTENTS**](#TOC)

Section 3: Compensation and Other Information

A participant's participation in the Incentive Share Purchase Plan ceases on termination of employment (whether voluntary or involuntary) or in the event of the death of the participant. The Incentive Share Purchase Plan permits the Chief Executive Officer (or such person designated by the Chief Executive Officer) to grant permission to participants (other than the Chief Executive Officer) to withdraw from the Incentive Share Purchase Plan during a plan year for which the participant has elected to participate. The Compensation Committee has the ability to grant permission to the Chief Executive Officer to withdraw from the Incentive Share Purchase Plan in a plan year for which the Chief Executive Officer has elected to participate. In the event of a subdivision, consolidation or reclassification of the Company's common shares or other capital adjustment, the number of common shares reserved for issuance under the Incentive Share Purchase Plan may be adjusted accordingly and any other adjustments may be made as deemed necessary or reasonable by the Compensation Committee.

Examples of amendments to the Incentive Share Purchase Plan that require shareholder approval include: (i) amendments to the amending provisions; (ii) amendments to increase the maximum number of common shares reserved for issuance under the Incentive Share Purchase Plan; (iii) amendments to the contribution limits for participants; and (iv) amendments to the contribution limits for the Company. Examples of amendments that may be made by the Compensation Committee without shareholder approval include, but are not limited to: (i) amendments to ensure continuing compliance with applicable laws and regulations; (ii) amendments of a housekeeping nature; (iii) amendments to change the class of participants eligible to participate in the Incentive Share Purchase Plan; (iv) amendments to change the terms of any financial assistance provided to participants; and (v) amendments to change the restrictions on the sale, transfer or other disposal of common shares.

In 2024, the shareholders of the Company approved an amendment to the Incentive Share Purchase Plan to increase the number of common shares available under such plan to 13,600,000 common shares. Of the 13,600,000 common shares approved, the Company has, as at March 6, 2026, 3,103,744 common shares remaining for issuance under the Incentive Share Purchase Plan, representing 0.62% of the common shares issued and outstanding as of March 6, 2026.

#### Pension Plan Benefits
The Company's basic defined contribution pension plan (the "Basic Plan") provides pension benefits to employees of the Company generally, including the Named Executive Officers. Under the Basic Plan, the Company contributes an amount equal to 5% of each employee's pensionable earnings (including salary and annual incentive compensation) to the Basic Plan. The Company's contributions cannot exceed the money purchase limit, as defined in the *Income Tax Act* (Canada). Upon termination of employment, the Company's contribution to the Basic Plan ceases and the participant is entitled to a pension benefit in the amount of the account balance under the Basic Plan. Contributions to the Basic Plan are invested in a variety of funds offered by the plan administrator, at the direction of the participant.

In addition to the Basic Plan, effective January 1, 2008, in line with the Company's compensation policy that compensation must be competitive in order to help attract and retain the executives with the skills and talent needed to lead and grow the Company's business and to address the weakness of the Company's retirement benefits when compared to its peers in the gold production industry, the Company adopted a supplemental defined contribution plan (the "Supplemental Plan") for executives at the level of Vice-President and above. On December 31 of each year, the Company credits each executive's notional account an amount equal to 15% of the executive's pensionable earnings for the year (including salary and actually received annual incentive compensation), less the Company's contribution to the Basic Plan. In addition, on December 31 of each year, the Company credits each executive's account a notional investment return equal to the balance of such executive's account at the beginning of the year multiplied by the greater of (i) the yield rate for Government of Canada marketable bonds with average yields over ten years and (ii) zero percent. Upon retirement, after attaining the minimum age of 55, the executive's account will be paid out, at the executive's option, in either: (a) five annual installments subsequent to the date of retirement, or (b) by way of lump sum payment. If the executive's employment is terminated prior to reaching the age of 55, such executive will receive, by way of lump sum payment, the total amount credited to his or her account.

The following tables set out summary information about the Basic Plan and the Supplemental Plan for each of the Named Executive Officers as at December 31, 2025.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; (2)

Includes the total amount notionally credited by the Company to the member's account during 2025. There was no above market investment income credited under the Supplemental Plan.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; (3)

Includes all investment income earned on the member's notional account balances during 2025.

#### Employment Contracts/Termination Arrangements
The Company has employment agreements with all of its executives that provide for an annual base salary, discretionary bonus, LTIP eligibility and certain pension, health, dental and other insurance and automobile benefits. These amounts may be increased at the discretion of the Board of Directors upon the recommendation of the Compensation Committee. In 2022, the Company entered into amended employment agreements with each of its then current executives to, among other things, provide for "double trigger" change of control payments. All employment agreements with executives entered into after 2022 will also provide for "double trigger" change of control payments. For the 2025 base salary for each Named Executive Officer, see "Summary Compensation Table" above. If the individual agreements are terminated other than for cause, death or disability each Named Executive Officer would be entitled to a payment equal to two times their annual base salary at the date of termination plus an amount equal to two times their annual incentive compensation and a continuation of benefits for up to two years (or, at the election of the employee, the amount equal to the Company's cost in providing such benefits) or (if earlier) until the individual commences new employment. Termination payments for each NEO are the same in all such circumstances. Certain events that would trigger a severance payment (a "Triggering Event") are:

• termination of employment without cause;

• material diminution of responsibilities;

• reduction of base salary or benefits; or

• office relocation of greater than 50 kilometres.

In addition, following a change of control of the Company, in the event a Triggering Event occurs within one year of such change of control, the executive would be entitled to a severance payment on the same terms described above.

If a severance payment Triggering Event had occurred on December 31, 2025, the severance payments that would be payable to each of the Named Executive Officers, would be approximately as follows (assuming in each case that the Named Executive Officer elects to receive a continuation of benefits): Mr. Al-Joundi — $6,410,986; Mr. Porter — $2,382,953; Mr. Robitaille — $2,382,953; Mr. Girard — $1,981,086; and Ms. Vaz — $1,981,086. These amounts were initially calculated in Canadian dollars and then converted into U.S. dollars using the average of the daily 2025 exchange rates reported by the Bank of Canada, being C$1.00 equals US$0.7154; these amounts would be the same for each termination event outlined in this section.

#### Succession Planning
The Company continually evaluates succession plans for its executive management team and takes pro-active steps to ensure potential succession candidates have the requisite skills and experience to transition to new roles. In addition to the formal succession planning activities described below, this also includes inviting potential successors to formal Board of Directors or Committee meetings where they make presentations and engage in discussions with directors and encouraging them to attend informal social functions where they may interact with directors in a more relaxed setting. This provides directors with an opportunity to make a comprehensive assessment of such candidates.

The Company's succession planning guidelines provide direction on the inclusion of gender diverse candidates in the Company's succession plan. The effectiveness of these efforts are reported and reviewed before plans are finalized. Where gender diverse candidates have not been identified, the cause is assessed and plans are developed to mitigate this gap in the future. In addition,

In addition, the Chief Executive Officer discusses succession matters in *in camera* sessions with the Corporate Governance Committee and the Board of Directors, generally on a quarterly basis.

The Board of Directors is responsible for:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; (a)

ensuring there is an orderly succession plan for the position of the Chief Executive Officer;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; (b)

reviewing the Chief Executive Officer's succession planning report for each of his direct reports and the executive management team;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; (c)

ensuring the succession plan includes a process that would respond to an emergency situation which required an immediate replacement of the incumbent Chief Executive Officer or any of his direct reports; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; (d)

ensuring that the Chief Executive Officer has a succession planning process in place for other members of executives in key positions.

The Board currently consists of eleven directors. The Board has made an affirmative determination that nine of the eleven directors to be considered for election at the Meeting are "independent" within the meaning of the CSA rules and the standards of the NYSE. With the exception of Mr. Al-Joundi and Mr. Boyd, all directors are independent of management. All directors are free from any interest or any business that could materially interfere with their ability to act as a director with a view to the best interests of the Company. In reaching this determination, the Board considered the circumstances and relationships with the Company and its affiliates of each of its directors. In determining that all directors except Mr. Al-Joundi and Mr. Boyd are independent, the Board took into consideration the facts that none of the remaining directors is an officer or employee of the Company, has been an officer or an employee of the Company in the past, or is party to any material contract with the Company and that none receives remuneration from the Company other than directors' fees and RSU grants for service on the Board. Mr. Al-Joundi is considered related because he is an officer of the Company. Mr. Boyd is considered related because he was an officer of the Company until his retirement on December 31, 2023.

The Board may meet independently of management (including without non-independent directors) at the request of any director or may excuse members of management from all or a portion of any meeting where a potential conflict of interest arises or where otherwise appropriate. The Board also meets without management before and/or after each Board meeting, including after each Board meeting held to consider interim and annual financial statements. In 2025, the Board met without management at each meeting of the Board. Following the annual performance assessments of the Board held in 2023, the Board adopted a policy to meet independently of management (including without non-independent directors) at every meeting of the Board.

To promote the exercise of independent judgment by directors in considering transactions and agreements, any director or officer who has a material interest in the matter being considered may not be present for discussions relating to the matter and any such director may not participate in any vote on the matter. To facilitate this, and upon the recommendation of the Corporate Governance Committee in 2024, at the beginning of each meeting of the Board each director is now specifically given an opportunity to declare any conflict of interest, or potential conflict of interest, with the matters to be discussed at the meeting. In addition, the Board reviews related party transactions in conjunction with making director independence determinations. Completion of annual questionnaires by directors and officers of the Company assists in identifying possible related party transactions. Further, the Company's Code of Business Conduct and Ethics provides that all officers and directors are required to avoid conflicts of interest and to disclose any actual or potential conflicts of interest. They must also annually certify their compliance with the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics.

Additional information on each director standing for election, including other public company boards on which they serve and their attendance record for all Board and Committee meetings during 2025, can be found on pages [13](#tEOD1) to [22](#OVDA) of this Circular.

APPENDIX A STATEMENT OF CORPORATE GOVERNANCE PRACTICES

*Chair* 

The Chair is appointed by the Board. Mr. Boyd is the Chair of the Board and Mr. Al-Joundi is the President & Chief Executive Officer of the Company. The Board believes that the separation of the offices of Chair and Chief Executive Officer enhances the ability of the Board to function and does not foresee that the offices of Chair and Chief Executive Officer will be held by the same person. In accordance with the Company's by-laws, as the Chair of the Board is not independent of management, the Board has appointed an independent Lead Director — see "Lead Director" below.

The Board has adopted a position description for the Chair of the Board. The Chair's role is to provide leadership to directors in discharging their duties and obligations as set out in the mandate of the Board. The specific responsibilities of the Chair include providing advice, counsel and mentorship to the Chief Executive Officer, appointing the Chair of each of the Board's committees and promoting the delivery of information to the members of the Board on a timely basis to keep them fully apprised of all matters which are material to them at all times. The Chair's responsibilities also include scheduling, overseeing and presiding over meetings of the Board and presiding over meetings of the Company's shareholders.

*Lead Director* 

Mr. Sokalsky is the independent Lead Director of the Board. Mr. Sokalsky is not a member of management. The Board believes that the appointment of an independent Lead Director enhances the ability of the Board to function independently of management.

Because the Chair is not an independent director, the independent directors elect an independent director to serve as Lead Director following each annual meeting. The Board has adopted a position description for the Lead Director. The Lead Director provides leadership to the Board and particularly to the independent directors. The Lead Director facilitates the functioning of the Board independently of management, approves agendas for each meeting of the Board, has the ability to call meetings of the Board of Directors and serves as an independent leadership contact for, and can communicate directly with, shareholders. For example, the Lead Director participated in meetings with 17 of the Company's largest shareholders in late 2025 (see "Shareholder Engagement" on page [29](#SHEG) of this Circular).

Further to the above, the Lead Director's responsibilities include, among other things: consulting with the Chair regarding the agenda and ultimately approving the agenda for each Board meeting; approving Board meeting schedules to ensure that there is sufficient time for discussion of all agenda items; chairing Board meetings when the Chair is absent or in circumstances where the Chair is (or may be perceived to be) conflicted; presiding over *in camera* sessions of the independent directors following every Board meeting; calling meetings of the independent directors, or the Board, as required; briefing the Chair on decisions reached or suggestions made at meetings of independent directors, or during *in camera* sessions; facilitating communication between the independent directors and the Chair; engaging with the Chair between Board meetings and assisting with informing or engaging with independent directors; overseeing the annual Board and directors evaluation process; engaging with each director individually regarding the performance and functioning of the Board, its committees, and other evaluation matters, as appropriate; providing input in respect of the Chair's annual performance evaluation of the President & Chief Executive Officer; providing leadership to the Board if circumstances arise in which the Chair may be (or may be perceived to be) in conflict, in responding to any reported conflicts of interest, or potential conflicts of interest, arising for any director; being available for consultation and direct communication with shareholders and other key constituents, as appropriate; and retaining independent advisors on behalf of the Board as the Board or the independent directors may deem necessary or appropriate.

*President & Chief Executive Officer* 

Mr. Al-Joundi is the President & Chief Executive Officer of the Company. The President & Chief Executive Officer is appointed by the Board and reports to the Chair and the Board. The President & Chief Executive Officer has overall responsibility, subject to the oversight of the Board and the Chair, for managing the Company's business on a day-to-day basis, general supervision of the business of the Company and the execution of the Company's operating plans and, working with the Chair, developing and executing the Company's strategic priorities.

*Board Mandate* 

The Board's mandate is to provide stewardship of the Company, to oversee the management of the Company's business and affairs, to maintain its strength and integrity, to oversee the Company's strategic direction, its organization structure and succession planning of senior management and to perform any other duties required by law. The Board's strategic planning process consists of an annual review of the Company's future business plans and, from time to time (and at least annually), a meeting focused on strategic planning matters. As part of this process, the Board reviews and approves the corporate objectives proposed by the Chief Executive Officer and advises management on the development of a corporate strategy to achieve those objectives. The Board also reviews the principal risks inherent in the Company's business, including environmental, industrial and financial risks, and assesses the systems to manage these risks. The Board also monitors the performance of senior management against the business plan through a periodic review process (at least every quarter) and reviews and approves promotion and succession matters for senior positions.

The Board holds management responsible for the development of long-term strategies for the Company. The role of the Board is to review, question, validate and ultimately approve the strategies and policies proposed by management. The Board relies on management to perform the data gathering, analysis and reporting functions which are critical to the Board for effective corporate

governance. In addition, the executive team reports to the Board at least every quarter on the Company's progress in the preceding quarter and on the strategic, operational and financial issues facing the Company.

Management is authorized to act, without Board approval, on all ordinary course matters relating to the Company's business. Management seeks the Board's prior approval for significant changes in the Company's affairs such as major capital expenditures, financing arrangements and significant acquisitions and divestitures. Board approval is required for any venture outside of the Company's existing businesses and for changes in senior management. Recommendations of Committees of the Board require the approval of the Board before being implemented. In addition, the Board oversees and reviews significant corporate plans and initiatives, including the annual business plans and budget and significant matters of corporate strategy or policy. The Company's authorization policy and risk management policy ensure compliance with good corporate governance practices. Both policies formalize controls over the management or other employees of the Company by stipulating internal approval processes for transactions, investments, commitments and expenditures and, in the case of the risk management policy, establishing objectives and guidelines for metal price hedging, diesel fuel hedging, foreign exchange and short-term investment risk management and insurance. The Board, directly and through its Audit Committee, also assesses the integrity of the Company's internal control and management information systems.

The Board oversees the Company's approach to communications with shareholders and other stakeholders and approves specific communications initiatives from time to time. The Company conducts an active investor relations program. The program involves responding to shareholder inquiries, briefing analysts and fund managers with respect to reported financial results and other announcements by the Company and meeting with individual investors and other stakeholders. Senior management reports regularly to the Board on these matters. The Board reviews and approves the Company's major communications with shareholders and the public, including quarterly and annual financial results, the annual report and the management information circular. The Board has approved a Disclosure Policy which establishes standards and procedures relating to contacts with analysts and investors, news releases, conference calls, disclosure of material information, trading restrictions and blackout periods.

The Board's mandate, as well as position descriptions for each of the Chair and the Lead Director, can be accessed through the Company's website under "About Agnico — Governance" at www.agnicoeagle.com.

### Position Descriptions

APPENDIX A STATEMENT OF CORPORATE GOVERNANCE PRACTICES

*Chairs of Board Committees* 

The Board has adopted position descriptions for each of the Chairs of the Board's Committees. The role of each of the Chairs is to ensure the effective functioning of his or her Committee and provide leadership to its members in discharging the mandate as set out in the Committee's charter. The responsibilities of each Chair include, among others:

• establishing procedures to govern his or her Committee's work and ensure the full discharge of its duties;

• chairing every meeting of his or her Committee and encouraging free and open discussion at such meetings;

• reporting to the Board on behalf of his or her Committee; and

• attending every meeting of shareholders and responding to such questions from shareholders as may be put to the Chair of his or her Committee.

Each of the Chairs is also responsible for carrying out other duties as requested by the Board, depending on need and circumstances.

The position description for the Chief Executive Officer, as well as the Charter for each Committee, can be accessed through the Company's website under "About Agnico — Governance" at www.agnicoeagle.com.

### Orientation and Continuing Education
The Corporate Governance Committee is responsible for overseeing the development and implementation of orientation programs for new directors and continuing education for all directors.

The Company maintains a collection of director orientation materials, which include the Board Mandate, the charters of the Board's Committees, a memorandum on the duties of a director of a public company, as well as copies of the Company's other corporate governance policies, and the Company's most recent continuous disclosure filings. A copy of such materials is available to each director and updated periodically.

The Company holds periodic sessions with its directors and legal counsel to review and assess the Board's corporate governance policies. This allows new directors to become familiar with the corporate governance policies of the Company as they relate to its business. In addition, the Company provides extensive reports on all operations to the directors at each quarterly Board meeting and endeavors to conduct yearly site tours for the directors at a different mine or project site each year. See "Board of Directors Governance Matters — Director Education" on page [28](#DIED) of this Circular for a description of various educational activities the Board participated in during 2025.

Periodic briefings, site visits and development sessions also underpin and support the Board of Directors' work in monitoring and overseeing progress towards the Company's objectives and strategies and assist in continuously building directors' knowledge to ensure the Board of Directors and its Committees remain up to date with developments and trends within the Company's business and operating segments, as well as developments within the markets and mining industry within which the Company operates.

Under the supervision of the Corporate Governance Committee, an annual review and assessment with each individual director is conducted that addresses the performance of the Board, the Board's Committees and each of the directors. These assessments help identify opportunities for continuing Board and director development. In addition, it is open to any director to take a continuing education course related to the skill and knowledge necessary to meet his or her obligations as a director at the expense of the Company following consultation with the Chair.

### Ethical Business Conduct
The Board has adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics and an Anti-Corruption and Anti-Bribery Policy, which provide a framework for directors, officers and employees on the conduct and ethical decision making integral to their work. In addition, the Board has adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics for Consultants and Contractors. The Audit Committee is responsible for monitoring compliance with these codes of ethics and policy through reports at the quarterly Committee meetings (when warranted) and any waivers or amendments thereto can only be made by the Board or a Board committee. These codes and the policy can be accessed through the Company's website under "About Agnico — Governance" at www.agnicoeagle.com.

The Board has also adopted a Confidential Anonymous Complaint Reporting Policy, which provides procedures for officers and employees who believe that a violation of the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics or Anti-Corruption and Anti-Bribery Policy has occurred to report this violation on a confidential and anonymous basis. Complaints can be made internally to the Executive Vice- President, Legal, General Counsel & Corporate Secretary or the Executive Vice-President, Finance & Chief Financial Officer. Complaints can also be made anonymously by phone, e-mail, letter or through a hotline provided by an independent third-party service provider. The Executive Vice-President, Legal, General Counsel & Corporate Secretary periodically submits a report to the Audit Committee regarding the complaints, if any, received through these procedures.

The Board believes that providing a procedure for employees and officers to raise concerns about ethical conduct on an anonymous and confidential basis fosters a culture of ethical conduct within the Company.

### Nomination of Directors
The Corporate Governance Committee, which is comprised entirely of independent directors, is responsible for participating in the recruitment and recommendation of new nominees for appointment or election to the Board. When considering a potential candidate,

the Corporate Governance Committee considers the qualities and skills that the Board, as a whole, should have and assesses the competencies and skills of the current members of the Board, including diversity criteria established under the Board of Directors Diversity Policy as discussed in greater detail in this Circular under "Board of Directors Governance Matters". Based on the skills already represented on the Board, the Corporate Governance Committee then identifies the specific skills, personal qualities or experiences that a candidate should possess in light of the opportunities and risks facing the Company. The Corporate Governance Committee may maintain a list of potential director candidates for its future consideration and may engage outside advisors to assist in identifying potential candidates. Potential candidates are screened to ensure that they possess the requisite qualities, including integrity, business judgment and experience, business or professional expertise, independence from management, international experience, financial literacy, excellent communications skills, diversity and the ability to work well in a team situation. The Corporate Governance Committee also considers the existing commitments of a potential candidate to ensure that such candidate will be able to fulfill his or her duties as a Board member.

### Compensation
Remuneration paid to the Company's directors is set based on several factors, including time commitments, risk, workload and responsibility demanded by their positions. The Compensation Committee periodically reviews and fixes the amount and composition of the compensation of directors. For a summary of remuneration paid to directors, see "Section 2: Business of the Meeting — Compensation of Directors and Other Information" in this Circular and the description of the Compensation Committee below.

### Board Committees
The Board has five Committees: (i) the Audit Committee, (ii) the Compensation Committee, (iii) the Corporate Governance Committee, (iv) the Health, Safety, Environment and Sustainable Development ("HSESD") Committee, and (v) the Technical Committee. Each Committee is comprised entirely of directors who are unrelated to and independent from the Company. The following table sets out the composition of each Committee as of March 6, 2026.

In addition: each of them are Chartered Accountants; Mr. Parr, while retired, was formerly the Chief Financial Officer of Centerra Gold Inc.; Mr. Sokalsky, while retired, was formerly the Chief Financial Officer of Barrick Gold Corporation; and the Board has determined that each of them qualify as audit committee financial experts, as the term is defined in the rules of the SEC.

Fees paid to the Company's auditors, Ernst & Young LLP, are set out under "Section 2: Business of the Meeting — Appointment of Auditors" in this Circular. The Audit Committee met four times in 2025.

The Audit Committee has two primary objectives. The first is to advise the Board of Directors in its oversight responsibilities regarding:

• the Company's compliance with legal and regulatory requirements;

• the effectiveness of the Company's internal controls for finance, accounting, internal audit, ethics and legal and regulatory compliance;

• the performance of the Company's auditing, accounting and financial reporting functions;

• the Company's cybersecurity program;

• the fairness of related party agreements and arrangements between the Company and related parties; and

• the independent auditors' performance, qualifications and independence.

The second primary objective of the Audit Committee is to prepare the reports required to be included in the management information circular in accordance with applicable laws or the rules of applicable securities regulatory authorities.

APPENDIX A STATEMENT OF CORPORATE GOVERNANCE PRACTICES

The Board has adopted an Audit Committee charter, which provides that each member of the Audit Committee must be unrelated to and independent from the Company as determined by the Board in accordance with the applicable requirements of the laws governing the Company, the stock exchanges on which the Company's securities are listed and applicable securities regulatory authorities. In addition, each member must be financially literate and at least one member of the Audit Committee must be an audit committee financial expert, as the term is defined in the rules of the SEC. The Audit Committee must pre-approve all audit and permitted non-audit services to be provided by the external auditors to the Company.

The Audit Committee is responsible for reviewing all financial statements prior to approval by the Board, all other disclosure containing financial information and all management reports which accompany any financial statements. The Audit Committee is also responsible for all internal and external audit plans, any recommendation affecting the Company's internal controls, the results of internal and external audits and any changes in accounting practices or policies.

In addition, the Audit Committee is responsible for assessing management's programs and policies relating to the adequacy and effectiveness of internal controls over the Company's accounting and financial systems. The Audit Committee reviews and discusses with the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer the procedures undertaken in connection with their certifications for annual filings in accordance with the requirements of applicable securities regulatory authorities. The Audit Committee is also responsible for recommending to the Board the external auditor to be nominated for shareholder approval who will be responsible for preparing audited financial statements and completing other audit, review or attestation services.

### Assessment of Directors
The Company's Corporate Governance Committee (see description of the Corporate Governance Committee above) is responsible for the assessment of the effectiveness of the Board as a whole and participates in the recruitment and recommendation of new nominees for appointment or election to the Board of Directors.

The Board has a formal, comprehensive process to annually assess the performance of the Board as a whole, each Committee and each individual director, which includes a peer review, and is effected under the direction of the Corporate Governance Committee. A list of suggested topics for consideration is shared with each director, which is followed by one-on-one meetings with the Lead Director and Chair of the Board. The suggested topics include a set of open-ended questions to encourage insight on board performance and functioning and to provide peer feedback to directors. Various issues are reviewed and discussed, including Board and Committee structure and composition; succession planning; risk management; director skills, experience and competencies; Board diversity, individual director engagement and contributions; Board and Committee process and effectiveness; and potential topics for director education sessions. These one-on-one meetings take place throughout the year, typically in the fall, and a summary

of the meetings is prepared. The summary is initially provided to the Lead Director and the Chair of the Corporate Governance Committee and then shared with all directors and forms the basis for the annual Board/Committee/Director review and discussion at a Corporate Governance Committee meeting and subsequent Board meeting. The Company may, from time to time, engage an independent third party to conduct the annual assessment.

Having regard to the annual assessment of directors, there may be instances where the Corporate Governance Committee believes an individual director is not contributing to the Board of Directors to the same standards as other directors. This may be reflected by such things as, without limitation, poor attendance at Board of Directors or Committee meetings, lack of preparation for meetings or other general indications of lack of commitment for Board of Directors, Committee or corporate matters. Should such a situation arise, the Chair of the Corporate Governance Committee (or, should that person be the Director in question, the Chair of the Board of Directors) shall discuss the concerns of the Corporate Governance Committee with that person and provide that person a reasonable period of time to rectify the behaviour/attitude giving rise to the concern. Should the Chair have to discuss this matter with that person a second time, that person may be asked to immediately resign; in any event, in such a situation, that person will not be included in the directors nominated for election at the next shareholders meeting where Directors are to be elected.
