future financial or operating performance constitutes &#147;forward-looking statements&#148;. All statements, other than statements of historical fact, are <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">forward-looking</FONT> statements. The words
&#147;believe,&#148; &#147;expect,&#148; &#147;anticipate,&#148; &#147;contemplate,&#148; &#147;target,&#148; &#147;plan,&#148; &#147;intend,&#148; &#147;continue,&#148; &#147;budget,&#148; &#147;estimate,&#148; &#147;may,&#148; &#147;will,&#148;
&#147;schedule&#148; and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are necessarily based upon a number of estimates and assumptions that, while considered reasonable by us, are inherently subject to
significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies. Known and unknown factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements. Such factors include, but are not
limited to: fluctuations in the spot and forward price of gold, copper or certain other commodities (such as silver, diesel fuel and electricity); changes in national and local government legislation, taxation, controls, regulations, expropriation
or nationalization of property, and political or economic developments in Canada, the United States, Dominican Republic, Australia, Papua New Guinea, Chile, Peru, Argentina, Tanzania, Zambia, Saudi Arabia, United Kingdom, Pakistan or Barbados or
other countries in which we do or may carry on business in the future; diminishing quantities or grades of reserves; increased costs, delays, suspensions and technical challenges associated with the construction of capital projects; the impact of
global liquidity and credit availability on the timing of cash flows and the values of assets and liabilities based on projected future cash flows; adverse changes in our credit ratings; the impact of inflation; fluctuations in the currency markets
(such as Canadian and Australian dollars, Chilean and Argentinean pesos, British pound, Peruvian sol, Zambian kwacha, South African rand, Tanzanian schilling and Papua New Guinean kina versus U.S. dollar); operating or technical difficulties in
connection with mining or development activities; the speculative nature of mineral exploration and development, including the risks of obtaining necessary licenses and permits; contests over title to properties, particularly title to undeveloped
properties; risk of loss due to acts of war, terrorism, sabotage and civil disturbances; changes in U.S. dollar interest rates that could impact the mark-to-market value of outstanding derivative instruments and ongoing payments/receipts under
interest rate swaps and variable rate debt obligations; risks arising from holding derivative instruments (such as credit risk, market liquidity risk and mark-to-market risk); litigation; business opportunities that may be presented to, or pursued
by, us; our ability to successfully integrate acquisitions or complete divestitures; employee relations; availability and increased costs associated with mining inputs and labor; and the organization of our African gold operations and properties
under a separate listed company. In addition, there are risks and hazards associated with the business of mineral exploration, development and mining, including environmental hazards, industrial accidents, unusual or unexpected formations,
pressures, cave-ins, flooding and gold bullion, copper cathode or gold/copper concentrate losses (and the risk of inadequate insurance, or inability to obtain insurance, to cover these risks). Many of these uncertainties and contingencies can affect
our actual results and could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in any <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">forward-looking</FONT> statements made by, or on behalf of, us. Readers are cautioned that <FONT
STYLE="white-space:nowrap">forward-looking</FONT> statements are not guarantees of future performance. All of the <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">forward-looking</FONT> statements made in this Prospectus are qualified by these cautionary
statements. Specific reference is made to &#147;Narrative Description of the Business &#151; Mineral Reserves and Mineral Resources&#148; and &#147;Risk Factors&#148; in the Annual Information Form (as defined below), and to the Annual

<P STYLE="margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="center"><B>OF OUR MINERAL RESERVE AND MINERAL RESOURCE ESTIMATES </B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I></I>Our mineral reserves and mineral resources have been calculated in accordance with National Instrument 43-101 &#150; <I>Standards of
Disclosure for Mineral Projects</I> (&#147;<I></I><B>NI 43-101</B><I></I>&#148;), as required by Canadian securities regulatory authorities. For United States reporting purposes, Industry Guide 7 (under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended (the &#147;<I></I><B>Exchange Act</B><I></I>&#148;)), as interpreted by the Staff of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the &#147;<I></I><B>SEC</B><I></I>&#148;), applies different standards in order to classify mineralization as a
reserve. Accordingly, for U.S. reporting purposes, as at December&nbsp;31, 2012, approximately 1.98&nbsp;million ounces of reserves at Pueblo Viejo (Barrick&#146;s 60% interest) are classified as mineralized material. In addition, while the terms
&#147;measured,&#148; &#147;indicated&#148; and &#147;inferred&#148; mineral resources are required pursuant to NI 43-101, the SEC does not recognize such terms. Canadian standards differ significantly from the requirements of the SEC, and mineral
resource information contained herein and in the documents incorporated herein by reference is not comparable to similar information regarding mineral reserves disclosed in accordance with the requirements of the SEC. Investors should understand
that &#147;inferred&#148; mineral resources have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence and as to their economic and legal feasibility. In addition, investors are cautioned not to assume that any part or all of our mineral resources
constitute or will be converted into reserves. Accordingly, information contained in this Prospectus and in the documents incorporated by reference herein, containing descriptions of Barrick&#146;s mineral deposits may not be comparable to similar
information made public by U.S. companies subject to the reporting requirements of United States Federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder.<I> </I></P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Barrick is a corporation existing under the laws of the Province of Ontario, Canada. A majority of our assets are located outside of the
United States. In addition, some of our directors and officers and most of the experts named in this Prospectus are resident outside the United States, and a majority of their assets are located outside of the United States. As a result, it may be
difficult for United States investors to effect service of process within the United States upon those directors, officers or experts who are not residents of the United States, or to realize in the United States upon judgments of courts of the
United States predicated upon civil liability of such directors, officers or experts under United States federal securities laws. We have been advised by Davies Ward Phillips&nbsp;&amp; Vineberg LLP, our Canadian counsel, that there may be some
doubt whether a judgment of a U.S. court predicated solely upon civil liability provisions of United States federal securities laws would be enforceable in Ontario. We have also been advised by such counsel that there is substantial doubt whether an
action could be brought in Ontario in the first instance on the basis of liability predicated solely upon United States federal securities laws. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We have filed with the SEC, concurrently with the filing of the registration statement on Form F-10 relating to this Offering, an appointment
of agent for service of process on Form F-X. Under the Form F-X, we appointed CT Corporation System as our agent for service of process in the United States in connection with any investigation or administrative proceeding conducted by the SEC and
any civil suit or action brought against or involving us in a United States court arising out of or related to or concerning this Offering. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Rick Sims and David Londono, each a &#147;qualified person&#148; for purposes of Canadian securities legislation who has prepared or
supervised the preparation of certain scientific and technical information contained or incorporated by reference in this Prospectus, and certain of Barrick&#146;s directors reside outside of Canada. Donald&nbsp;J. Carty, Gustavo Cisneros, Brett
Harvey, Dambisa Moyo, Steven Shapiro and John L. Thornton (each a director of Barrick resident outside of Canada), have appointed Barrick Gold Corporation, Brookfield Place, TD Canada Trust Tower, Suite 3700, 161 Bay Street, P.O. Box 212, Toronto,
Ontario, Canada, M5J 2S1, as agent for service of process. Purchasers are advised that it may not be possible for investors to enforce judgments obtained in Canada against any person that resides outside of Canada, even if such person has appointed
an agent for service of process. </P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>Before deciding to purchase Common Shares in the Offering, prospective purchasers should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties
described below and under the heading &#147;Risk Factors&#148; in the Annual Information Form, which is incorporated by reference herein, as well as the other information contained in or incorporated by reference in this Prospectus. These risks and
uncertainties are not the only ones that we are facing. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also impair our business operations. If any such risks actually occur, our business,
financial condition and operating results could be materially harmed. </I></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Risks and Other Considerations Related to this Offering </B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>The Common Shares are Subject to Market Price Volatility </I></B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The market price of the Common Shares may be adversely affected by a variety of factors relating to our business, including fluctuations in our
operating and financial results, the results of any public announcements made by us, our failure to meet analysts&#146; expectations and changes in gold, copper and other commodity prices. In addition, the market price and trading volume of
securities of mining companies have experienced substantial volatility in the past, sometimes based on factors unrelated to the financial performance or prospects of the companies involved. These factors include general fluctuations in the stock
market, changes in global financial markets, general market conditions, changes in gold, copper and other commodity prices, macroeconomic developments in the countries where such companies carry on business and globally and market perceptions of the
attractiveness of particular industries. The trading price of the Common Shares has been volatile. During the period from January&nbsp;1, 2011 to October&nbsp;30, 2013, the last reported closing sale price of the Common Shares has been as high as
Cdn.$54.61 and as low as Cdn.$14.57 per share on the TSX and as high as $55.63 and as low as $13.76 per share on the NYSE. See &#147;Market for Securities&#148;. The stock markets in general have recently experienced extreme volatility. This
volatility may adversely affect the market price of the Common Shares. The market price of the Common Shares is also likely to be significantly affected by changes in precious metal prices and other mineral prices, currency exchange fluctuations and
the political and regulatory environment in the countries in which we do business and globally. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>Potential Dilution </I></B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Our articles of amalgamation allow us to issue an unlimited number of Common Shares for such consideration and on such terms and conditions as
shall be established by our Board of Directors, in many cases, without the approval of our shareholders. As part of this Offering (assuming the Over-Allotment Option is exercised in full), we expect to issue up to <FONT
STYLE="FONT-FAMILY:'WINGDINGS 2'">&#151;</FONT> Common Shares. In addition, as at September&nbsp;30, 2013, there were 7,446,667 Common Shares issuable upon the exercise of outstanding stock options of Barrick at prices ranging from Cdn.$18.09 to
Cdn.$29.60 and $19.81 to $54.83. We may issue additional Common Shares in subsequent public or private offerings (including through the sale of securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Shares) and on the exercise of stock options or
other securities exercisable for Common Shares. We may also issue Common Shares to finance future acquisitions and other projects or in connection with the establishment or development of strategic relationships. Any such future issuances of Common
Shares could be significant and we cannot predict the effect that future issuances and sales of Common Shares will have on the market price of the Common Shares. Issuances of a substantial number of additional Common Shares, or the perception that
such issuances could occur, may adversely affect prevailing market prices for our Common Shares. With any additional issuance of Common Shares, investors will suffer dilution to their voting power and we may experience dilution in our earnings per
share. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>Dividends </I></B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I></I>Holders of Common Shares are entitled to receive dividends if, as and when declared by our Board of Directors out of funds legally
available for such payments. The <I>Business Corporations Act</I> (Ontario) provides that a corporation may not declare or pay a dividend if there are reasonable grounds for believing that the corporation is, or would be after the payment of the
dividend, unable to pay its liabilities as they become due or the realizable value of its assets would thereby be less than the aggregate of its liabilities and stated capital of all classes of shares of its capital. Furthermore, holders of Common
Shares may be subject to the prior dividend rights of holders of our preferred shares, if any, then outstanding. Our ability to pay dividends will be subject to our future earnings, capital requirements and financial condition, as well as compliance
with covenants and financial ratios relating to existing or future indebtedness. Although Barrick has in recent years generally declared quarterly cash dividends on the Common Shares, the Board of Directors determined following the second quarter of
2013 to reduce Barrick&#146;s quarterly dividend. There can be no assurance that our Board of Directors will elect to pay future dividends on our Common Shares. See &#147;Dividend Policy&#148;. <I> </I></P>

gold company. Barrick entered the gold mining industry in 1983 and is now the leading gold mining company in the world in terms of production and reserves. We have operating mines and projects in Canada, the United States, Dominican Republic,
Australia, Papua New Guinea, Peru, Chile, Argentina, Saudi Arabia, Zambia and Tanzania. Our principal products and sources of earnings are gold and copper. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I></I>Barrick is a corporation governed by the <I>Business Corporations Act</I> (Ontario) resulting from the amalgamation, effective
July&nbsp;14, 1984, under the laws of the Province of Ontario, of Camflo Mines Limited, Bob-Clare Investments Limited and the former Barrick Resources Corporation. By articles of amendment effective December&nbsp;9, 1985, Barrick changed its name to
American Barrick Resources Corporation. Effective January&nbsp;1, 1995, as a result of an amalgamation with a wholly-owned subsidiary, Barrick changed its name from American Barrick Resources Corporation to Barrick Gold Corporation. In connection
with its acquisition of Placer Dome Inc., Barrick amalgamated with Placer Dome Inc. pursuant to articles of amalgamation dated May&nbsp;9, 2006. On January&nbsp;1, 2009, Barrick amalgamated with its wholly-owned subsidiary, Arizona Star Resource
Corp. Barrick&#146;s head and registered office is located at Brookfield Place, TD Canada Trust Tower, Suite 3700, 161&nbsp;Bay Street, P.O. Box 212, Toronto, Ontario, Canada, M5J 2S1.<I> </I></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Recent Developments </B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">On October&nbsp;31,
2013, Barrick announced its third quarter financial results with net earnings of $0.17 billion ($0.17 per share), adjusted net earnings of $0.58 billion ($0.58 per share), operating cash flow of $1.23 billion and adjusted operating cash flow of
$1.30 billion. At September&nbsp;30, 2013, Barrick had cash and equivalents of $2.3 billion and $4.0 billion available under its credit facility. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B></B>During the third quarter, Barrick had gold production of 1.85&nbsp;million ounces with cost of sales applicable to gold of $1.54
billion and all-in sustaining costs (&#147;<B>AISC</B>&#148;) of $916 per ounce and copper production of 139&nbsp;million pounds with cost of sales applicable to copper of $0.25 billion and C3 fully allocated costs of $2.15 per pound. Full year gold
production is now expected to be at the low end of the original 7.0-7.4&nbsp;million ounce guidance range due to the sale of the Yilgarn South mines in Australia. Full year cost of sales applicable to gold is expected to be $6.1 - $6.5 billion and
AISC are expected to be within the recently reduced guidance range of $900-$975 per ounce. Full year copper production guidance has increased to 520-550&nbsp;million pounds, cost of sales applicable to copper is expected to be $1.1 - $1.2 billion
and C1 cash costs and C3 fully allocated cost guidance has been reduced to $1.90- $2.00 per pound and $2.40-$2.60 per pound, respectively. <B> </B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Barrick also announced its decision to temporarily suspend construction activities at the Pascua-Lama Project, except those required for
environmental protection and regulatory compliance. As a result of this decision, previous capital expenditure guidance for 2014 is now expected to be reduced by up to $1.0 billion. </P>

of $0.80 per common share: $0.20 in mid-March, $0.20 in mid-June, $0.20 in mid-September and $0.20 in mid-December. To date in 2013, our Board of Directors has declared two cash dividends of $0.20 each, which were paid on March&nbsp;15, 2013 and
June&nbsp;17, 2013, respectively, and two cash dividends of $0.05 each, one paid on September&nbsp;16, 2013 and one which is payable on December&nbsp;16, 2013 to shareholders of record at the close of business on November&nbsp;29, 2013. Our Board of
Directors reviews our dividend policy quarterly based on, among other things, the Company&#146;s current and projected liquidity profile. Following the end of the second quarter of 2013, the Board of Directors of Barrick determined to reduce
Barrick&#146;s future quarterly dividend to $0.05 per Common Share. There can be no assurance that our Board of Directors will elect to pay future dividends on our Common Shares. See &#147;Risk Factors&#148;. </P>

Offering. Short sales may be &#147;covered short sales&#148;, which are short positions in an amount not greater than the Over-Allotment Option, or may be &#147;naked short sales&#148;, which are short positions in excess of that amount. The
Underwriters may create a naked short position if they are concerned that there may be downward pressure on the price of the Common Shares in the open market that could adversely affect investors who purchase in this Offering. The Underwriters must

banking, commercial banking and other financial services to Barrick for which they have received or will receive compensation. Affiliates of RBCDS and Barclays will be retained as the dealer managers in connection with the Proposed Tender Offer. In
addition, Dambisa Moyo, a director of Barrick, is a member of the board of directors of an affiliate of Barclays. Certain Lender Affiliates of RBCDS, and Barclays are lenders under the Credit Facility and/or counterparties under certain financial
and hedging arrangements with us. In addition, affiliates of RBCDS own approximately $10 million aggregate principal amount of the notes which are expected to be subject to the Proposed Tender Offer (the &#147;RBCDS Notes&#148; and together with the
Credit Facility, the &#147;Indebtedness&#148;). Consequently, Barrick may be considered a &#147;connected issuer&#148; with each of RBCDS and Barclays for the purposes of Canadian securities legislation. </P>

incorporated by reference herein. The decision to distribute the Common Shares, including the determination of the terms of the Offering, was made through negotiations between Barrick and the Underwriters. The Lender Affiliates did not have any
involvement in such decision or determination. In addition, none of RBCDS and Barclays nor their respective Lender Affiliates will receive any benefit from the Offering, other than their respective portion of the fee payable to the Underwriters by
Barrick as described above under &#147;Plan of Distribution&#148;, except that the RBCDS affiliates who hold the RBCDS Notes could receive repayment of all or a portion of such notes if tendered into and purchased in the Proposed Tender Offer. </P>

the Common Shares. In the case of a Resident Holder that is an individual (other than certain trusts), such dividends will be subject to the gross-up and dividend tax credit rules applicable to taxable dividends received from taxable Canadian
corporations, including the enhanced gross-up and dividend tax credit applicable to any dividends designated by Barrick as an &#147;eligible dividend&#148; in accordance with the provisions of the Tax Act. Although Barrick currently anticipates that
all dividends to Resident Holders will be designated as &#147;eligible dividends&#148; in accordance with the provisions of the Tax Act, it is possible that Barrick may pay dividends that are not so designated. </P>

constitute qualified dividend income will be taxable to you at preferential rates provided that you hold the Common Shares for more than 60 days during the 121-day period beginning 60 days before the ex-dividend date and certain other requirements

Distributions in excess of our current and accumulated earnings and profits (as determined for United States federal income tax purposes) will be treated as a non-taxable return of capital to the extent of your basis in the Common Shares and
thereafter as capital gain. We do not intend to maintain calculations of earnings and profits in accordance with United States federal income tax principles. Therefore, each U.S. holder should assume that any distribution by us with respect to the

tax withheld and paid over to Canada will be creditable or deductible against your United States federal income tax liability. Special rules apply in determining the foreign tax credit limitation with respect to qualified dividend income. For
foreign tax credit purposes, dividends will be income from sources outside the United States and will generally constitute &#147;passive category&#148; income for purposes of computing the foreign tax credit allowable to you. The rules relating to

gain of a non-corporate U.S. holder (including an individual) is generally eligible for preferential tax rates where the U.S. holder has a holding period greater than one year. The gain or loss will generally be income or loss from sources within

anticipated income, assets and activities, we believe that we will not be classified as a PFIC for United States federal income tax purposes for the current taxable year and do not expect to become a PFIC in future taxable years. However, this
conclusion is a factual determination that is made annually after the end of such taxable year and thus may be subject to change or differing interpretations. In addition, the U.S. Internal Revenue Service or a court may disagree with the
Company&#146;s position, and the Company cannot assure U.S. holders that the Company is not currently a PFIC and that it will not become a PFIC in the future. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">If the Company were a PFIC, U.S. holders would be subject to a special, adverse United States federal tax regime that would differ in certain
respects from that described above. U.S. holders should consult their own U.S. tax advisors regarding the application of the PFIC rules to their investment in the Common Shares and whether to make a protective election that may mitigate some of the
adverse consequences that would result if the Company were a PFIC. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Information with Respect to Foreign Financial Assets </B></P>

only if they are not held in accounts maintained by financial institutions: (i)&nbsp;stocks and securities issued by non-United States persons, (ii)&nbsp;financial instruments and contracts held for investment that have non-United States issuers or

the Common Shares and to proceeds received upon the sale or other disposition of Common Shares. Furthermore, backup withholding (currently at a rate of 28%) may apply to such amounts if you are a non-corporate U.S. holder and you fail to furnish a
correct taxpayer identification number to certify that you are not subject to backup withholding or to otherwise comply with the backup withholding requirements. Any amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules may be allowed as a refund or
credit against your United States federal income tax liability, provided that you timely furnish the required information to the Internal Revenue Service. You should consult your own tax advisers as to your qualification for an exemption from backup
withholding and the procedure for obtaining such an exemption. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:24pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="center"><B><A NAME="toc621751_18"></A>PRIOR SALES </B></P>

<I>Business Corporations Act</I> (Ontario) (the &#147;<I></I><B>OBCA</B><I></I>&#148;), Barrick Gold Corporation (&#147;<I></I><B>Barrick</B><I></I>&#148; or the &#147;<I></I><B>Registrant</B><I></I>&#148;) may indemnify a director or officer of
Barrick, a former director or officer of Barrick or another individual who acts or acted at Barrick&#146;s request as a director or officer, or an individual acting in a similar capacity, of another entity, against all costs, charges and expenses,
including an amount paid to settle an action or satisfy a judgment, reasonably incurred by the individual in respect of any civil, criminal, administrative, investigative or other proceeding in which the individual is involved because of that
association with Barrick or the other entity on condition that (i)&nbsp;the individual acted honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of Barrick or, as the case may be, to the best interests of the other entity for which the
individual acted as a director or officer or in a similar capacity at Barrick&#146;s request, and (ii)&nbsp;in the case of a criminal or administrative action or proceeding that is enforced by a monetary penalty, the individual had reasonable
grounds for believing that his or her conduct was lawful. Further, Barrick may, with court approval, indemnify an individual described above in respect of an action by or on behalf of Barrick or another entity to obtain a judgment in its favor, to
which the individual is made a party by reason of the individual&#146;s association with Barrick or such other entity described above, against all costs, charges and expenses reasonably incurred by the individual in connection with such action if
the individual fulfils condition (i)&nbsp;above. An individual referred to above is entitled to indemnification from Barrick as a matter of right if he or she was not judged by a court or other competent authority to have committed any fault or
omitted to do anything he or she ought to have done and fulfils conditions (i)&nbsp;and (ii)&nbsp;above. Barrick has entered into a Memorandum of Agreement with each Barrick director and officer under which Barrick has agreed to indemnify and hold
harmless the individual in substantially the same circumstances as outlined in this paragraph.<I> </I></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In accordance with the provisions
of the OBCA described above, the by-laws of Barrick provide that, subject to the relevant provisions of the OBCA, Barrick shall indemnify a director or officer of Barrick, a former director or officer of Barrick, or another individual who acts or
acted at Barrick&#146;s request as a director or officer, or an individual acting in a similar capacity, of another entity, against all costs, charges and expenses, including an amount paid to settle an action or satisfy a judgment, reasonably
incurred by the individual in respect of any civil, criminal, administrative, investigative or other proceeding in which the individual is involved because of that association with Barrick or such other entity if the individual acted honestly and in
good faith with a view to the best interests of Barrick or, as the case may be, to the best interests of the other entity for which the individual acted as a director or officer or in a similar capacity at Barrick&#146;s request. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Barrick also maintains insurance for the benefit of its directors and officers against liability in their respective capacities as directors
and officers. The directors and officers are not required to pay any premium in respect of the insurance. The policy contains standard industry exclusions. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers or persons
controlling the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, the Registrant has been informed that in the opinion of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of
1933 and is therefore unenforceable. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="center"><B>EXHIBITS TO FORM-10 </B></P>
