Exhibit 99.2

Dear Shareholders:

This is our eighth annual letter to shareholders since Franco-Nevada was reborn as a public company with our IPO in late 2007. Over those eight years to year-end 2015, our business model has created real shareholder value. Franco-Nevada’s share price has outperformed both gold and all the relevant comparable gold equity benchmarks. Our market capitalization today of over $10 billion ranks us among the largest global gold companies. In 2015, dividends per share were increased for the eighth consecutive year and dividend declarations reached $129 million. Franco-Nevada is the gold investment that works.

During the bull commodity market, many mining companies financed growth projects and acquisitions with debt. Now that commodity prices are weak, these same companies are retrenching. We believe the gold price will trade higher in the longer term but that this will always be a cyclical business with periods of consolidation. Value is created by making investments when others cannot. We are now in one of those times and are seeing and capitalizing on many opportunities.

In 2015, Franco-Nevada committed over $1 billion to new investments with the most material one being the Antamina mine in Peru. So far in 2016, we are off to an early start with a $500 million investment in the Antapaccay mine also in Peru. Our portfolio is becoming even more diversified and strong as we continue to add major long-life, low-cost and well-run mines. Thanks to the support of our shareholders, we have also been able to maintain our conservative balance sheet. A $920 million equity issue completed just a few weeks ago has allowed the Company to have no net debt and the liquidity to take advantage of further opportunities.

Franco-Nevada operates with a small team and our overhead has remained stable since our IPO despite substantial growth in our assets and revenues. Franco-Nevada’s success is a reflection of their hard work and discipline guided by an experienced and engaged board of directors. All of them have a material stake in the Company and act as owners. With this team and our assets, we are confident about the prospects for Franco-Nevada’s future.

To our shareholders, thank you for continuing your investment with us. Please consider the resolutions in this circular for our upcoming shareholders’ meeting. We look forward to meeting many of you personally on May 4 th.

At the Candelaria mine in Chile

PROXY INFORMATION AND Q&A

This management information circular (this “Circular”) is furnished in connection with the solicitation by the management of Franco-Nevada Corporation (the “Corporation” or “Franco-Nevada”) of proxies to be used at the annual and special meeting (the “Meeting”) of shareholders of the Corporation to be held at the TMX Broadcast Centre, The Exchange Tower, 130 King Street West, Toronto, Ontario M5X 1J2 on Wednesday, May 4, 2016, at 4:30 p.m. (Toronto time), and at all adjournments thereof, for the purposes set forth in the notice of the Meeting that accompanies this Circular (the “Notice of Meeting”).

Who can vote?

The directors have fixed March 17, 2016 as the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive notice of the Meeting. Shareholders of record on such date are entitled to vote at the Meeting.

Who is soliciting my proxy?

Management of the Corporation is soliciting your proxy. It is expected that the solicitation will be made primarily by mail but proxies may also be solicited personally by directors, officers or employees of the Corporation. Such persons will not receive any extra compensation for such activities. The Corporation may also retain, and pay a fee to, one or more proxy solicitation firms to solicit proxies from the shareholders of the Corporation in favour of the matters set forth in the Notice of Meeting. The Corporation may pay brokers or other persons holding common shares of the Corporation in their own names, or in the names of nominees, for their reasonable expenses for sending proxies and the Circular to beneficial owners of common shares and obtaining proxies therefor. The total cost of the solicitation will be borne directly by the Corporation.

Who votes my shares and can I appoint someone else?

The persons named in the enclosed form of proxy are officers or directors of the Corporation. A shareholder has the right to appoint a person (who need not be a shareholder of the Corporation) other than the persons specified in such form of proxy to attend and act on behalf of such shareholder at the Meeting. Such right may be exercised by striking out the names of the persons specified in the form of proxy, inserting the name of the person to be appointed in the blank space provided in the form of proxy, signing the form of proxy and returning it in the manner set forth in the form of proxy.

A shareholder who has given a proxy may revoke it:

(i) by depositing an instrument in writing, including another completed form of proxy, executed by such shareholder or shareholder’s attorney authorized in writing either:

a. at the registered office of the Corporation at any time up to and including the last business day preceding the date of the Meeting or any adjournment thereof; or

b. with the Chair of the Meeting prior to the commencement of the Meeting on the day of the Meeting or any adjournment thereof; or

(ii) in any other manner permitted by law.

How will my shares be voted?

The persons named in the enclosed form of proxy will vote the shares in respect of which they are appointed by proxy on any ballot that may be called for in accordance with the instructions contained therein. If the shareholder specifies a choice with respect to any matter to be acted upon, the shares will be voted accordingly. In the absence of such specifications, such shares will be voted FOR each of the matters referred to herein.

Does my proxy have any discretionary authority?

The enclosed form of proxy confers discretionary authority upon the persons named therein with respect to amendments to or variations of matters identified in the Notice of Meeting and with respect to other matters, if any, which may properly come before the Meeting. At the date of the Circular, management of the Corporation knows of no such amendments, variations or other matters to come before the Meeting. However, if any other matters that are not now known to management should properly come before the Meeting, the proxy will be voted on such matters in accordance with the best judgment of the named proxy.

1

How do I vote if I am not a registered shareholder?

The information set forth in this section is of significant importance to many holders of common shares, as a substantial number of shareholders do not hold common shares in their own name. Shareholders who do not hold their common shares in their own name (referred to herein as “Beneficial Shareholders”) should note that only proxies deposited by shareholders whose names appear on the records of the Corporation as the registered holders of common shares can be recognized and acted upon at the Meeting. If common shares are listed in an account statement provided to a shareholder by a broker, then, in almost all cases, those common shares will not be registered in the shareholder’s name on the records of the Corporation. Such shares will more likely be registered under the name of the shareholder’s broker or an agent of that broker. More particularly, a person is a Beneficial Shareholder in respect of common shares which are held on behalf of that person but which are registered either: (a) in the name of an intermediary that the Beneficial Shareholder deals with in respect of the common shares (intermediaries include, among others, banks, trust companies, securities dealers or brokers and trustees or administrators of self-administered RRSPs, RRIFs, RESPs and similar plans); or (b) in the name of a clearing agency (such as The Canadian Depository for Securities Limited (“CDS”) or the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”)), of which the intermediary is a participant. The vast majority of such shares are registered under the name of CDS or DTC, which act as nominee for many brokerage firms. Common shares held by brokers or their nominees can only be voted upon the instructions of the Beneficial Shareholder. Without specific voting instructions, brokers and their nominees are prohibited from voting common shares held for Beneficial Shareholders. Therefore, Beneficial Shareholders should ensure that instructions respecting the voting of their common shares are communicated to the appropriate person or that the common shares are duly registered in their name.

Applicable securities regulatory policy requires intermediaries/brokers to seek voting instructions from Beneficial Shareholders in advance of shareholders’ meetings. Every intermediary/broker has its own mailing procedures and provides its own return instructions to clients, which should be carefully followed by Beneficial Shareholders in order to ensure that their common shares are voted at the Meeting.

The majority of brokers now delegate responsibility for obtaining voting instructions from Beneficial Shareholders to Broadridge Investor Communication Solutions (“Broadridge”). Broadridge supplies a voting instruction form (“VIF”) and asks Beneficial Shareholders to complete and return the VIF to Broadridge in accordance with the instructions set out in the VIF. Broadridge then tabulates the results of all instructions received and provides appropriate instructions respecting the voting of common shares to be represented at the Meeting. The Corporation does intend to pay for an intermediary to deliver the proxy-related materials and related forms to Beneficial Shareholders.

Can I vote by phone or online?

Both our transfer agent, Computershare Investor Services Inc. (the “Transfer Agent”) and Broadridge provide telephone voting and Internet voting instructions on the form of proxy (for registered shareholders) and the VIF for Beneficial Shareholders, respectively.

What if I wish to attend and vote at the Meeting in person?

If you are a registered shareholder, please do not complete your form of proxy and instead register with the Transfer Agent when you arrive at the Meeting.

If you are a Beneficial Shareholder, and wish to attend the Meeting in person or appoint some other person or company, who need not be a shareholder, to attend and act on your behalf at the Meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof, please follow the instructions contained in the VIF.

Interests of Certain Persons or Companies in Matters to be Acted Upon

BUSINESS OF THE MEETING

Item 1 — Financial Statements

The audited consolidated financial statements of the Corporation for the year ended December 31, 2015 and the auditors’ report thereon will be placed before the shareholders at the Meeting. The audited consolidated financial statements are available from the Corporation upon request or they can be found on SEDAR at www.sedar.com, on EDGAR at www.sec.gov and on the Corporation’s website at www.franco-nevada.com.

Item 2 — Election of Directors

At the Meeting, it is proposed that nine directors be elected to the board of directors of the Corporation (the “Board”). Each nominee for election as director is currently a director of the Corporation. Each director’s term of office will expire at the next annual meeting of shareholders of the Corporation or when his or her successor is duly elected or appointed, unless his or her term ends earlier in accordance with the articles or by-laws of the Corporation, he or she resigns from office or becomes disqualified to act as a director of the Corporation.

For further information, on the director nominees, director compensation and our corporate governance practices, please refer to pages 6 to 27 of this Circular.

Unless the shareholder has specified in the enclosed form of proxy that the common shares represented by such proxy are to be withheld from voting in the election of directors, the persons named in the enclosed form of proxy intend to vote FOR the election of the nominees whose names are set forth below.

The Board has adopted a policy on majority voting. If, with respect to any particular nominee, such nominee is not elected by a majority (50% + 1 vote) of the votes cast with respect to his or her election, then for purposes of the policy the nominee shall be considered not to have received the support of the shareholders, even though duly elected as a matter of corporate law. A person elected as a director who is considered under this test not to have the confidence of the shareholders must immediately submit to the Board his or her resignation, to take effect upon acceptance by the Board. The Board will refer the resignation to the Compensation and Corporate Governance Committee (the “CCGC”) for consideration. A nominee who tenders a resignation pursuant to the policy will not participate in any meeting of the Board or the CCGC at which the resignation is considered. The Board will promptly accept the resignation unless the CCGC determines that there are exceptional circumstances (for example, relating to the composition of the Board or the voting results) that should delay the acceptance of the resignation or justify rejecting it. In any event, it is expected that the resignation will be accepted (or in rare cases rejected) and the Board will promptly announce its decision in a press release within 90 days of the meeting, including reasons for rejecting the resignation, if applicable. This policy does not apply to a contested meeting.

Item 3 — Appointment of Auditors

The auditors of the Corporation are PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, who were first appointed as auditors of the Corporation on November 29, 2007.

Unless the shareholder has specified in the enclosed form of proxy that the common shares represented by such proxy are to be withheld from voting in the appointment of auditors, the persons named in the enclosed form of proxy intend to vote FOR the appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, as auditors of the Corporation to hold office until the next annual meeting of shareholders, and to authorize the directors to fix the remuneration of the auditors.

Fees

For the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP was paid fees from the Corporation as detailed below:

Policies and Procedures Regarding Services Provided by External Auditors

The Board, upon the recommendation of the Audit and Risk Committee (“ARC”), has adopted policies and procedures regarding services provided by external auditors (collectively, the “Auditor Independence Policy”). Under the Auditor Independence Policy, specific proposals for audit services and permitted non-audit services must be pre-approved by the ARC. The ARC may delegate to any one or more of its members pre-approval authority (other than pre-approval of the annual audit service engagement). Any approvals granted under this delegated authority must be presented to the ARC at its next meeting. The Auditor Independence Policy also provides that the ARC may pre-approve services (other than the annual audit service engagement) without the requirement for a specific proposal where the scope and parameters of such services and their attendant fees are clearly defined. The ARC must be informed in writing at its next scheduled meeting of any engagement of the external auditor to provide services in such circumstances. The Auditor Independence Policy deems de minimus non-audit services to have been pre-approved by the ARC in limited circumstances and subject to certain conditions being met.

The Auditor Independence Policy prohibits the external auditors from providing any of the following types of non-audit services: (a) bookkeeping or other services related to the accounting records or financial statements; (b) financial information systems design and implementation; (c) appraisal or valuation services, fairness opinions, or contribution-in-kind reports; (d) actuarial services; (e) internal audit outsourcing services; (f) management functions or human resources services; (g) corporate finance or other services; (h) broker-dealer, investment advisor or investment banking services; (i) legal services; and (j) any other service that under applicable law and generally accepted auditing standards cannot be provided by an external auditor.

The Auditor Independence Policy provides that the external auditor should not be precluded from providing tax or advisory services that do not fall within any of the categories described above, unless the provision of those services would reasonably be expected to compromise the independence of the external auditor.

Item 4 — “Say-on-Pay” Advisory Resolution

In early 2010, the CCGC reviewed the guidelines of various governance ratings agencies with respect to “say-on-pay”, in particular, the Canadian Coalition for Good Governance’s Model Shareholder Engagement and “Say on Pay” Policy for Boards of Directors. The CCGC recommended to the Board that shareholders have the opportunity to, on an advisory basis, vote in respect of the Corporation’s approach to executive compensation. For 2016, shareholders of the Corporation are again being given the opportunity to vote on an advisory basis “for” or “against” the Corporation’s approach to executive compensation through the following resolution (the “Say-on-Pay Advisory Resolution”):

BE IT RESOLVED THAT, on an advisory basis and not to diminish the role and responsibilities of the board of directors of the Corporation, the shareholders accept the approach to executive compensation as disclosed in the Corporation’s management information circular dated March 21, 2016.

The Board recommends to shareholders of the Corporation that they vote FOR the Say-on-Pay Advisory Resolution. Unless the shareholder has specified in the enclosed form of proxy that the common shares represented by such proxy are to be voted against the Say-on-Pay Advisory Resolution, the persons named in the enclosed form of proxy intend to vote FOR the Say-on-Pay Advisory Resolution.

Since the vote is advisory, it will not be binding on the Board or the CCGC. However, the Board and, in particular, the CCGC, will consider the outcome of the vote as part of its ongoing review of executive compensation. For further information on the Corporation’s approach to executive compensation, please refer to pages 28 to 45 of this Circular.

Notes

(1) The CCGC has developed a skills matrix (the “Skills Matrix”) comprised of the skills and competencies it expects the Board as a whole to possess and has identified which of those skills and competencies are possessed by its existing directors. The skills and competencies are as follows: experience with respect to the mining industry, experience with respect to the oil & gas industry, experience in accounting and finance, risk management, legal matters, human resources and compensation matters, corporate governance, public company boards and public company management.

(2) The information as to the number of common shares of the Corporation and any of its subsidiaries beneficially owned, or over which control or direction is exercised, directly or indirectly, by each proposed director, including those which are not registered in the name of such director and not being within the knowledge of the Corporation, has been furnished by the respective director.

(3) Non-employee directors are eligible to participate in the Corporation’s deferred share unit plan to receive DSUs. The President & CEO, as an employee director is eligible to participate in the Corporation’s share compensation plan to receive RSUs. For additional information regarding these plans, please see “Director Compensation - Deferred Unit Share Plan” and “Other Information — Share Compensation Plan”. Fractional DSUs have been rounded.

(4) Calculated as of March 15, 2016 using the closing price of the common shares on the TSX of C$81.43 per share.

(5) For additional information regarding options held by directors, please see “Director Compensation”.

(6) Calculated as of March 15, 2016 using the closing price of the common shares on the TSX of C$81.43 per share less the applicable exercise price for options.

(7) Messrs. Lassonde and Oliphant are currently both directors of New Gold Inc. but Mr. Lassonde will not be standing for re-election to the New Gold Board in 2016 and will cease to be a director as of April 27, 2016. With respect to this interlocking board membership, it is the Board’s view that the mining community at the highest levels is closely connected and that in order for the Corporation’s directors to maintain these connections, which are in the best interests of the Corporation, directors of the Corporation should be permitted to serve on other boards of directors, including in some cases, the same board of directors. The Board is satisfied that it has a clearly established system for dealing with conflicts of interest if any were to arise. See “Ethical Business Conduct” below.

(8) Comprised of 34,523 performance-based RSUs and 22,331 time-based RSUs. See “Statement of Executive Compensation.”

(9) Following her election in May 2015, Dr. Farrow received a grant of 65,000 stock options in connection with her recruitment to the Board.

Securities laws require the Corporation to disclose whether a proposed director has: (i) been a director or an executive officer of a company that has been subject to a cease trade or other order or become bankrupt; (ii) been bankrupt; (iii) been subject to any penalties or sanctions relating to securities legislation or entered into a settlement agreement with a securities regulatory authority; and (iv) been subject to any other penalties or sanctions that would likely be considered important to a reasonable shareholder in deciding whether to vote for a proposed director.

Notes

(1) For a breakdown of fees paid in cash versus fees credited in DSUs, see the chart below under “Deferred Share Unit Plan”. Fees paid or payable to the directors were payable in Canadian dollars. The rate used for currency translation into U.S. dollars was 0.7820, which was the average rate used for currency translation for the Corporation’s expenses for the year ended December 31, 2015. The annual retainer paid to each director is C$45,000 per year. Messrs. Lassonde, Oliphant and Peterson are also paid additional retainers for serving as the Chair of the Board, the Chair of the ARC and the Chair of the CCGC, respectively. Prior to July 1, 2015, the additional retainers for the Chair of the Board, the Chair of the ARC and the Chair of the CCGC were C$45,000 per year, C$15,000 per year and C$10,000 per year, respectively and, effective July 1, 2015, such retainers

11

were increased to C$90,000 per year, C$25,000 per year and C$15,000 per year, respectively. Fees shown in the table above reflect the increases to the Chair and Committee Chair retainers in the second half of 2015. See “Discussion of Director Compensation Table” below.

(2) Represents the grant date fair value of the (1) dividend equivalents credited under the DSU Plan and (2) 1,000 DSUs credited to each director for the second half of 2015 (see “Discussion of Director Compensation Table” below), each in U.S. dollars based on the Bank of Canada noon rate on the date such DSUs were issued.

(3) Effective July 1, 2015, includes travel fees for out-of-town directors of C$1,500 per day to a maximum of two days per meeting, in U.S. dollars based on the Bank of Canada noon rate on the date such travel fees were reimbursed. Reimbursement to each of the directors for other expenses and fees was made during the year. These reimbursements were not considered perquisites, as they were integrally and directly related to the performance of each director’s duties.

(4) Dr. Farrow joined the board effective May 6, 2015 and fees shown are for the portion of the year served.

(5) Represents 65,000 stock options awarded to Dr. Farrow upon her joining the Board. The stock options will vest annually in equal thirds commencing on the first anniversary of the grant date and fair value was calculated using a Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions: risk-free rate — 0.98%, life — 5.0 years; volatility — 34.45% and dividend yield of 1.89%. The rate used for currency translation into U.S. dollars was 0.7645, which was the Bank of Canada noon rate on August 20, 2015.

Discussion of Director Compensation Table

Significant factors necessary to understand the information disclosed in the Director Compensation Table above include the Board’s fee structure, the Corporation’s deferred share unit plan, and directors’ equity investment requirements.

Board Fees

Since 2011, compensation for non-executive directors has been set at C$45,000 per director per year (the “Annual Retainer”) and no fees have been payable in respect of attendance at meetings. Prior to July 1, 2015, the Chair of the Board, the Chair of the ARC and the Chair of the CCGC also received additional compensation of C$45,000 per year (the “Chair Retainer”), C$15,000 per year (the “ARC Retainer”) and C$10,000 per year (the “CCGC Retainer”), respectively.

In light of (i) the growth of the Corporation, (ii) the increased workload of the directors (including the Chair and the Chairs of the ARC and CCGC), and (iii) the need to recruit new directors in connection with Board renewal as existing directors retire, the CCGC conducted an extensive review of director compensation in 2015 and concluded that director compensation did not adequately compensate the directors, the Chair of the Board and the Chairs of the ARC and CCGC for their continued deep commitment to the Corporation.

The CCGC further determined that director compensation should largely be linked to the long-term growth of the Corporation’s share price. As such, the CCGC determined that an increase to director compensation should include the grant of DSUs (as defined below) instead of additional cash compensation.

On the recommendation of the CCGC, the Board (i) maintained the Annual Retainer at C$45,000 per year, (ii) determined to continue its practice of not paying attendance fees, and (iii) approved the following changes to Board compensation effective July 1, 2015:

· the grant of 2,000 DSUs per year payable on a quarterly basis in arrears to each director which vest on the grant date (the “Annual DSU Grant”);

· an increase to the Chair Retainer to C$90,000, the ARC Retainer to C$25,000 and the CCGC Retainer to C$15,000; and

· the addition of travel fees (for out-of-town directors) of C$1,500 per day to a maximum of two days per meeting.

Directors are also reimbursed for out-of-pocket expenses for attending Board and committee meetings and in respect of other activities relating to Board service. No director compensation is paid to directors who are members of management of the Corporation.

Deferred Share Unit Plan

Effective March 26, 2008, the Board adopted a deferred share unit plan (the “DSU Plan”), which permits directors who are not salaried officers or employees of the Corporation or a related corporation (referred to as “Eligible Directors”) to defer receipt of all or a portion of their Board fees until termination of Board service. The

12

DSU Plan also provides the Board with the flexibility to award deferred share units (“DSUs”) to Eligible Directors as another form of compensation. Only Eligible Directors are permitted to participate in the DSU Plan which is administered by the CCGC.

With respect to conversion of Board fees into DSUs (“Conversion DSUs”), each Eligible Director may elect to be paid a minimum of 20% up to a maximum of 100%, in 10% increments, of Board fees in the form of Conversion DSUs in lieu of being paid such fees in cash. On the date on which Board fees are payable (on a quarterly basis), the number of Conversion DSUs to be credited to a participating Eligible Director (a “Participant”) is determined by dividing an amount equal to the designated percentage of the Board fees that the Participant has elected to have credited in Conversion DSUs on that fee payment date, by the fair market value of a common share (i.e. weighted average trading price for the last five trading days) on that fee payment date.

The DSU Plan also permits the CCGC to award DSUs to directors as additional compensation. In 2015, on the recommendation of the CCGC, the Board approved the Annual DSU Grant. Under the DSU Plan, the CCGC is authorized to determine when these DSUs will be awarded, the number of DSUs to be awarded, the vesting criteria for each award of these DSUs, if any, and all other terms and conditions of each award. Unless the CCGC determines otherwise (as was done for the Annual DSU Grant as these DSUs are issued in arrears for services rendered), these DSUs awarded under the Plan will be subject to a vesting schedule whereby they will become vested in equal instalments over three years with one-third vesting on the first anniversary of the award and one-third vesting on each of the subsequent anniversaries of the award. The CCGC may consider alternatives for vesting criteria related to the Corporation’s performance and has the flexibility under the DSU Plan to apply such vesting criteria to particular awards of DSUs. The DSU Plan also provides that: (i) where a Participant’s termination of Board service is as a result of death, all unvested DSUs will vest effective on the date of death; and (ii) in a change of control context, all unvested DSUs will vest immediately prior to the change of control.

When dividends are declared by the Corporation, a Participant is also credited with dividend equivalents in the form of additional DSUs based on the number of vested DSUs the Participant holds on the record date for the payment of a dividend.

A Participant is permitted to redeem his or her vested DSUs only following termination of Board service by way of retirement, non-re-election as a director, resignation or death. A Participant (or, in the case of death of the Participant, the Participant’s legal representative) will be entitled, by giving written notice to the Corporation, provided the Participant is not at that time a salaried officer or an employee of the Corporation or a related corporation, to redeem, on one or more dates specified by the Participant (or the Participant’s legal representative, as the case may be) occurring on or after the date of such notice, which date(s) shall not, in any event, be prior to the tenth trading day following the release of the Corporation’s quarterly or annual financial results immediately following the Participant’s termination of Board service and shall not be later than December 1 st of the first calendar year commencing after the time of such termination of Board service, all or a portion of the vested DSUs. If the Participant (or the Participant’s legal representative, as the case may be) fails to provide written notice to the Corporation in respect of the redemption of all or any portion of the Participant’s vested DSUs, the Participant (or the Participant’s legal representative, as the case may be) will be deemed to have elected to redeem all vested DSUs on December 1st of the calendar year commencing after the date of termination of Board service of the Participant. The DSU Plan has more specific restrictions on redemptions for U.S. Participants.

Upon redemption of DSUs, the Corporation will pay to the Participant a lump sum cash payment equal to the number of DSUs to be redeemed multiplied by a calculation of the fair market value of a common share (i.e. weighted average trading price for the last five trading days) on the redemption date, net of any applicable deductions and withholdings. The DSU Plan does not entitle any Participant to acquire common shares of the Corporation.

The following table outlines the breakdown of fees paid in cash versus fees credited in DSUs during the year ended December 31, 2015 and the total DSUs accumulated during the year ended December 31, 2015.

Fees shown reflect the increase to Chair and Committee Chair retainers in the second half of 2015. See “Discussion of Director Compensation Table” above.

(2) Fractional DSUs have been rounded.

(3) Represents the Annual DSU Grant. As such grant was effective as of July 1, 2015, the DSUs shown are for the portion of the year served.

(4) Dr. Farrow joined the board effective May 6, 2015 and fees shown are for the portion of the year served.

Directors’ Equity Investment Requirements

With a view to aligning the interests of directors with those of shareholders, each director that is not a salaried officer or employee of the Corporation is required to hold a minimum equity investment in the Corporation equivalent in value to three times the Annual Retainer in the form of common shares of the Corporation and/or DSUs held pursuant to the DSU Plan. Each director has a period of three years from the date of his/her first election by shareholders or appointment by the Board, as applicable, to satisfy the minimum equity investment requirement. At the time of the Corporation’s initial public offering in 2007 (the “IPO”), the directors at such time had subscribed for an aggregate of 1,000,000 common shares of the Corporation in order to ensure that the interests of the directors would be aligned with shareholders.

Under the Equity Ownership Policy for Directors, if a director has not achieved the minimum equity investment at the time of any options being exercised by the director, he or she shall be required to continue to hold at least 50% or such lesser number of common shares issuable upon the exercise of such options as required to achieve the minimum equity ownership requirements.

On March 25, 2015 the Board approved an amendment to the Equity Ownership Policy for Directors to provide that the value of the equity investment of a director at any time will be based on the current market value of the common shares, and of the DSUs under the DSU Plan. Previously, the policy permitted the value to be determined based on the higher of the acquisition cost and the current market value. Based on the Annual Retainer for fiscal 2016, the minimum equity investment is C$135,000. The following table summarizes equity investment in the Corporation by individual directors as at March 15, 2016.

Notes

(1) Options vest over a three-year period in equal thirds commencing on the first anniversary of the grant date and have a 10-year term. Grant dates coincide with the date 10 years prior to the option expiration date.

(2) The value of unexercised options was calculated using the closing price of the common shares on the TSX on December 31, 2015, which was C$63.30 per share, less the exercise price of the options. The rate used for currency translation into U.S. dollars was 0.7225, which was the Bank of Canada noon rate on December 31, 2015.

(3) All dividend equivalents credited under the DSU Plan, Conversion DSUs and Annual DSU Grants since inception of the DSU Plan are vested, but under the terms of the DSU Plan cannot be paid out until redeemed by the Participant following termination of Board service. Conversion DSUs do not represent additional compensation or additional share-based awards as they are fees that directors have elected to be paid in the form of Conversion DSUs in lieu of cash. The inclusion of Conversion DSUs in the table above is for informational purposes.

(4) The market or payout value as at December 31, 2015 was calculated using the closing price on the TSX of C$63.30 per share and the Bank of Canada noon rate on that day of 0.7225. The aggregate number of dividend equivalents, Conversion DSUs and Annual DSU Grants since inception of the DSU Plan was as follows: Mr. Lassonde — 5,651, Mr. Albanese — 1,844, Mr. Evans — 8,812, Mr. Farquharson — 9,075, Dr. Farrow — 1,488, Mr. Gignac — 5,787, Mr. Oliphant — 1,004 and Mr. Peterson — 10,670.

Notes

(1) Represents 33 1/3% of options granted on August 19, 2013, which vested on August 19, 2015. The value vested during the year of option-based awards was calculated using the closing price of the common shares on the TSX on the vesting date of August 19, 2015, which was C$59.66 per share, less the exercise price of the options. The rate used for currency translation into U.S. dollars was 0.7596, which was the Bank of Canada noon rate on August 19, 2015.

(2) Dividend equivalents credited under the DSU Plan, Conversion DSUs and Annual DSU Grants vest on the date they are credited/awarded. Conversion DSUs do not represent additional compensation or additional share-based awards as they are fees that directors have elected to be paid in the form of Conversion DSUs in lieu of cash. The inclusion of Conversion DSUs in the table above is for informational purposes. During 2015, Conversion DSUs, Annual DSU Grants and dividend equivalents were calculated based on the 5-day weighted average price on the TSX prior to the grant date and the rate used for currency translation into U.S. dollars was the Bank of Canada noon rate on the grant date as follows.

Type |  | Grant Date |  | TSX price |  | Bank of Canada noon rate |
Conversion DSUs and Dividend Equivalents |  | March 31, 2015 |  | C$ | 61.38 |  | 0.7885 |
Conversion DSUs and Dividend Equivalents |  | June 30, 2015 |  | C$ | 59.57 |  | 0.8017 |
Conversion DSUs, Annual DSU Grant and Dividend Equivalents |  | September 30, 2015 |  | C$ | 58.81 |  | 0.7466 |
Conversion DSUs, Annual DSU Grant and Dividend Equivalents |  | December 31, 2015 |  | C$ | 63.30 |  | 0.7225 |

The aggregate number of dividend equivalents credited under the DSU Plan, Conversion DSUs and Annual DSU Grants during 2015 was as follows: Mr. Lassonde — 1,084, Mr. Albanese — 1,018, Mr. Evans — 1,866, Mr. Farquharson — 1,871, Dr. Farrow — 1,488, Mr. Gignac — 1,450, Mr. Oliphant — 1,004 and Mr. Peterson — 2,081. While such DSUs technically vested when credited/awarded during 2015, under the terms of the DSU Plan they cannot be paid out until redeemed by the Participant following termination of Board service.

Aggregated Option Exercises During the Most Recently Completed Financial Year and Financial Year-End Option Values

The following table sets forth details of the exercise of options during the most recently completed financial year by each non-executive director and the financial year-end value of unexercised options on an aggregated basis.

David Peterson |  | 75,000 |  | C$ | 3,664,470 |  | Nil/Nil |  | Nil/Nil |

Notes

(1) The aggregate value realized was calculated using the sale price of the common shares realized by each director following the exercise of options, less the exercise price of the options.

(2) The value of unexercised options was calculated using the closing price of the common shares on the TSX on December 31, 2015, which was C$63.30 per share, less the exercise price of the options. The rate used for currency translation into U.S. dollars was 0.7225, which was the Bank of Canada noon rate on December 31, 2015.

Discussion of Incentive Plan Awards for Directors

The significant terms of all plan-based awards, including non-equity incentive plan awards, issued or vested, or under which options have been exercised, during the year, or outstanding at year end, in respect of non-executive directors, are set out above under “Deferred Share Unit Plan” and below under “Other Information - Share Compensation Plan”. For clarity, the only plan-based awards for which non-executive directors are eligible are those awarded under the Share Compensation Plan and under the DSU Plan. Non-executive directors are not eligible for annual cash bonuses or RSUs under the Share Compensation Plan.

To date, at the time of joining the Board, directors have been granted stock options to provide a long-term ownership perspective on the direction of the Corporation. While the Share Compensation Plan technically permits the grant of options to directors, the Corporation has no intention of granting options to any existing non-executive directors in the foreseeable future. It has been the practice of the Corporation to grant options in connection with the recruitment of a new director as was done with Mr. Evans in 2008 and Mr. Albanese in August 2013 and this was done when Dr. Farrow joined the Board in May 2015.

STATEMENT OF GOVERNANCE PRACTICES

Board of Directors

Composition of the Board — Independence

The Board is currently comprised of nine directors. The Board has considered the independence of each of its directors. Consistent with National Instrument 58-101 — Disclosure of Corporate Governance Practices (“NI 58-101”), to be considered independent, the Board must conclude that a director has no material relationship with the Corporation. A “material relationship” is a relationship which could, in the view of the Board, reasonably interfere with the exercise of a director’s independent judgment and includes an indirect material relationship.

The Board has concluded that eight directors (Messrs. Lassonde, Peterson, Gignac, Farquharson, Oliphant, Evans and Albanese and Dr. Farrow) are “independent” for purposes of Board membership, as provided in NI 58-101, and therefore all of the directors are “independent” other than Mr. Harquail, by virtue of his position as President & CEO.

The Board has also considered the independence of its directors more generally, and whether they are “related” or “affiliated” as defined by various governance ratings agencies and confirms its view that Messrs. Lassonde, Peterson, Gignac, Farquharson, Oliphant, Evans and Albanese and Dr. Farrow are not “related” or “affiliated” with the Corporation in such a way as to affect their exercise of independent judgment. The Board is aware that certain governance ratings agencies may consider Mr. Oliphant “related” due to Mr. Oliphant being the Executive Chairman of New Gold Inc., a payor of two of the Corporation’s royalty interests. The Board has reviewed this matter and concluded that Mr. Oliphant is not related on the basis that the two royalty interests are not material on any objective or subjective analysis. The Corporation has approximately 340 assets with 105 producing assets and the New Gold royalties account for approximately $5.0 million or approximately 1% of the Corporation’s consolidated revenues for 2015.

Independent Director Meetings

At 100% of the meetings of the Board and its committees held during fiscal 2015 (including those that were not regularly scheduled meetings), the independent directors held an in-camera session at which non-independent directors and members of management were not present. It is the intention of the directors to continue to hold such an in-camera session at each Board and committee meeting.

Chair of the Board

Pierre Lassonde,

Chair of the Board

Mr. Lassonde, the Chair of the Board, has had an exemplary career as a professional engineer, astute investor, innovative financier, entrepreneurial company builder, dedicated philanthropist, senior statesman of Canada’s mining and investment industries and internationally respected industry spokesman. Mr. Lassonde is a respected worldwide authority on mining and precious metals. In addition to his qualifications, the Board has unanimously concluded that Mr. Lassonde is an independent director. See “Composition of the Board — Independence” above. The Chair of the Board’s role is to provide leadership to the directors in discharging their mandate, including by: (i) leading, managing and organizing the Board, consistent with the approach to corporate governance adopted by the Board from time to time; (ii) promoting cohesiveness among the directors; and (iii) being satisfied that the responsibilities of the Board and its committees are well understood by the directors. The responsibilities of the Chair of the Board include:

· providing advice, counsel and mentorship to the CEO;

· promoting the provision of information to the directors on a timely basis;

· with respect to meetings of the Board, scheduling meetings, setting the agendas for the meetings, presiding over the meetings, co-ordinating with the chairs of the committees of the Board to schedule committee meetings, ensuring that all

18

business required to come before the Board is brought properly, monitoring the adequacy of Board materials, ensuring sufficient time for review of materials, and encouraging free and open discussion at meetings of the Board; and

· presiding over shareholder meetings.

Attendance at Meetings

During the financial year ended December 31, 2015, the Board held six meetings. The ARC and CCGC each held five meetings. Non-committee members also regularly attend committee meetings. The following summarizes the attendance record for each of such meetings.

Notes

(1) Dr. Farrow joined the Board on May 6, 2015.

(2) Mr. Albanese inadvertently missed a meeting due to a scheduling miscommunication and was subsequently consulted on and approved all matters discussed at such meeting.

It is the policy of the Board that, except in exceptional circumstances (i.e. due to illness or other incapacity), all directors of the Corporation shall attend the annual meeting of shareholders of the Corporation.

Board Mandate

A copy of the Board’s written mandate is attached as Schedule “A” to this Circular.

Board Engagement with Shareholders on Governance Matters

On November 11, 2010, the Board adopted a policy relating to Board engagement with shareholders on governance matters. The policy provides that the Board believes that it is important to have regular and constructive engagement directly with the shareholders of the Corporation to allow and encourage shareholders to express their views on governance matters directly to the Board outside of the Corporation’s annual meetings. These discussions are intended to be an interchange of views about governance and disclosure matters that are within the public domain and will not include a discussion of undisclosed material facts or material changes. This policy further provides that the Board will continue with developing practices to increase engagement with its shareholders as is appropriate for its shareholder base and size. Examples of engagement practices in 2015 include meetings between the Chair of the Board and the Corporation’s larger shareholders and potential shareholders in North America and Europe, as well as meetings between Board members and the Corporation’s shareholders. It is also the practice of the Board to annually host institutional investors and analysts at the Corporation’s offices. This provides all Board members with an opportunity to engage directly with shareholders. Board members are also provided with opportunities to join management at industry conferences (such as the Denver Gold Show and BMO Global Metals & Mining Conference) including individual meetings with the Corporation’s shareholders to understand their priorities and concerns. This policy also provides that the Board recognizes that shareholder engagement is an evolving practice in Canada and globally and will review this policy annually to ensure that it is effective in achieving its objectives.

With respect to continuing education, the Corporation continues to ensure that its directors maintain the skill and knowledge necessary to meet their obligations as directors by having management provide relevant presentations at Board and committee meetings, as appropriate, by bringing consultants and other outside experts in to address the Board on various issues, by arranging for other meetings with management and other outside advisors/experts/third parties from time to time, and by arranging for site visits and offsite meetings from time to time. The Board also has scheduled dinners at which various topics are discussed, such as industry trends, technical updates, strategic opportunities, corporate goals and strategies, board composition, financing options, the dividend policy, executive compensation and succession matters. The Board also receives, on a regular basis, materials of interest, including analyst reports and industry reports, from the Chair and the Named Executive Officers. Individual directors are, subject to the approval of the Chair of the Board, also able to attend continuing education conferences at the Corporation’s expense.

During 2015, in addition to standard management presentations on such matters as enterprise risk management, compensation policies and strategies, the Corporation’s portfolio of assets and management thereof, analyst and other reports, corporate performance reviews and merger and acquisition strategies in the mining and oil & gas industries, presentations from management and outside advisors/experts/third parties were provided at the following events:

Nomination of Directors, Board Renewal and Diversity

Nomination of Directors

The CCGC serves as the Board’s nominating committee. The CCGC is composed entirely of independent directors. The responsibilities, powers and operation of the CCGC generally are summarized above. The CCGC has the authority to retain a search firm to be used to identify director candidates. With respect to nomination of directors, the CCGC is responsible for:

· developing and recommending to the Board criteria for selecting new directors;

· assisting the Board by identifying individuals qualified to become members of the Board; and

· recommending to the Board the director nominees for the next annual meeting of shareholders and for each committee of the Board.

The process by which the Board will identify new candidates for Board nomination will involve:

· annually reviewing the competencies, skills and personal qualities required of directors to add value to the Corporation;

· annually reviewing the competencies and skills that the Board considers each director to possess, including the Skills Matrix (as more particularly described on page 11), and what each new nominee should bring to the Board; and

22

· working closely with the Chair of the Board in seeking individuals qualified to become members of the Board, in the context of the Corporation’s needs and the criteria established by the Board, including the diversity criteria as discussed below.

Director Retirement Policy/Term Limits

The Board has adopted a director retirement policy which provides the framework for the Corporation to allow for the renewal of the Board, where appropriate, by specifying a process for the Board to determine whether turnover in the Board is appropriate once a director reaches a specified age. On the March 1 st after a non-employee director’s 72nd birthday and on every March 1st thereafter while the director is still a director of the Corporation, a director must submit his or her resignation to the Board and the CCGC for consideration. The CCGC will consider such resignation and, taking into account factors such as the competencies and skills possessed by the Board as a whole and the director individually, the size of the Board and the overall best interests of the Corporation, make a recommendation to the Board as to whether the Board should accept such resignation in conjunction with the Corporation’s next annual meeting of shareholders or reject such resignation and nominate the director for election at the Corporation’s next annual meeting of shareholders. The Board will then consider the CCGC’s recommendation and make its determination. Neither the CCGC nor the Board has waived compliance with this policy to date. In accordance with this policy, Messrs. Farquharson and Peterson tendered their resignations on March 1, 2016. The Board, on the recommendation of the CCGC, unanimously declined to accept Messrs. Farquharson and Peterson’s resignations and has nominated them for re-election to the Board. The Board took into consideration, among other things, Mr. Farquharson’s outstanding technical expertise and experience and Mr. Peterson’s specialized governance and legal expertise in determining it was in the best interests of the Corporation for Messrs. Farquharson and Peterson to continue to serve as directors. Neither Mr. Farquharson nor Mr. Peterson participated in the deliberations of the CCGC or the Board with respect to their own resignations.

The Board has determined, being an eight-year-old company, not to establish term limits for directors at this time due to the potential loss of contributions from directors who have significant insight into the Corporation and its operations. As well, the director retirement policy is expected to provide sufficient opportunities to consider board renewal in the near-term such that meaningful board renewal may occur. The Board will continue to evaluate whether term limits would be advisable on an ongoing basis.

Diversity

The Corporation is committed to diversity among its employees, executive officers and on the Board. On March 25, 2015, the Board adopted a formal written diversity policy (the “Diversity Policy”) relating to identifying women as candidates to recommend for appointment/election to the Board and for appointment/promotion to senior management positions. Pursuant to the Diversity Policy, the CCGC will seek out highly-qualified candidates for Board and/or senior management positions and will specifically consider diversity criteria including gender, ethnicity and geographic background when identifying candidates. Where appropriate, the CCGC will engage qualified independent external advisors to conduct a search for candidates that meet the Board’s skills and diversity criteria to help achieve its diversity aspirations. As all recommendations of director nominees and appointments of executive officers need to be approved by the CCGC, the Board has concluded that appropriate measures are in place to ensure that the Diversity Policy is effectively implemented. The Diversity Policy will be reviewed annually by the CCGC to ensure it is effective in achieving its objectives. A copy of the Diversity Policy is available on the Corporation’s website at www.franco-nevada.com.

The Board and the CCGC have been considering the level of representation of women on the Board in identifying and nominating candidates for election and re-election to the Board. Over the past several years, the CCGC has been proactive and has considered and interviewed several women as potential Board members. Initially the Board was focused on recruiting a director with a strong technical mining background and following an exhaustive search, Dr. Farrow was elected by shareholders at the 2015 annual and special meeting of the Corporation as its ninth director. With the addition of Dr. Farrow to the Board, for 2016, one of nine (11%) directors of the Corporation is a woman.

Further Board renewal is expected within the next five years. The Board will continue to actively search for additional qualified women as directors. The Corporation is confident that additional meaningful progress will be achieved in improving gender diversity on the Board over the next few years.

23

The Corporation does consider the level of representation of women in executive officer positions when making executive officer appointments. Between 2007 and 2012, the Corporation had up to two women in Named Executive Officer positions, a clear demonstration of the Corporation’s commitment to gender diversity at the highest executive level. One executive retired and the other decided to pursue other opportunities. After the Named Executive Officer positions, the Corporation has three vice presidents of which one is a woman and, as a result, one of eight (12.5%) officers of the Corporation is a woman. After the CEO, there are a total of four Named Executive Officer positions of which two (50%) are held by visible minorities reflecting the Corporation’s commitment to diversity more broadly. The Corporation will continue to seek out and consider women as candidates as Named Executive Officer and other executive officer positions become available.

The Corporation has not set targets for women as Board members and executive officers. The Board has determined that its historical practices have resulted in meaningful progress to date and, together with the Diversity Policy, the Board is committed to further progress in the future. The Diversity Policy provides that the Board will review the policy annually to ensure that it is effective in achieving its objectives. Any changes to the policy as well as additional diversity achievements will be reported annually in the Corporation’s management information circular.

Compensation Process

The CCGC serves as the Board’s compensation committee. The CCGC is composed entirely of independent directors. The responsibilities, powers and operation of the CCGC generally are summarized above under “Compensation and Corporate Governance Committee”. With respect to compensation of directors and executive officers, the CCGC is responsible for:

· assisting the Board in its annual review of the Board’s performance and oversight of the evaluation of management’s performance;

· reviewing and making recommendations to the Board with respect to the compensation of directors and the executive officers (including the CEO) of the Corporation; and

· approving and evaluating the compensation plans, policies and programs of the Corporation.

For information regarding the process by which the Board determines the compensation for the Corporation’s executive officers, please see “Compensation Discussion & Analysis”. For information regarding the process by which the Board determines the compensation for the Corporation’s directors, please see “Compensation of Directors”.

Board Assessment

The Board assesses itself, its committees and individual directors with respect to their effectiveness and contribution on an annual basis. Such assessment process involves a confidential director questionnaire and discussions among the Chair of the Board, the Chairs of the committees and individual directors relating to overall Board assessment, individual committee assessments, Board Chair assessment, individual committee chair assessments, individual director self-assessments and peer assessments. The Chair of the Board meets with each individual director and the Chair of the CCGC meets with the Chair of the Board to discuss the above matters. Members of the CCGC are responsible for drafting, collecting and assessing questionnaires, and facilitating discussions. The Chair of the CCGC reports on the results of this process to the Board. The CCGC is also permitted to retain external advisors to assist with the assessment process. The assessment for 2015 was conducted in the first quarter of 2016 and the CCGC and the Board considered the results of the assessment process at their March meeting.

Succession Planning

The CCGC is responsible for ensuring that succession strategies are both appropriate and are being implemented. All meetings of the CCGC and meetings of the Board in 2015 included an in-camera session with and without the CEO at which human resource issues and succession were regularly discussed. During the in-

24

camera sessions, the CEO provided a verbal report on his current succession plan and those internal candidates that are in a succession position near-term and those that would require longer term mentoring. The CEO also reported on his actions to mentor the internal candidates, including the provision of executive coaching, additional educational resources, broader experiences and higher public profiles. The potential for the Corporation to recruit an external candidate as CEO is also regularly discussed and is considered a viable option that does not require implementation at this stage. The CCGC also monitors progress in succession for executive positions reporting to the CEO. One of the five corporate goals for each executive is to ensure succession and technical depth are in place. Specific succession objectives are included in the annual key responsibilities and specific objectives that are agreed upon by each executive and the CEO and which are provided to the CCGC. Each year, the CEO reviews the achievement of succession objectives with each executive which then forms part of the CEO’s annual performance review of each executive and recommendations that he makes to the CCGC. These reviews and recommendations are considered by the CCGC in connection with its recommendations to the Board for annual incentive compensation. Finally at year end, the CEO provides the CCGC with a written memo assessing corporate accomplishments including an organizational chart and steps being undertaken to strengthen the Corporation.

During 2014, Geoff Waterman, Chief Operating Officer with responsibility for the oil & gas division of the Corporation, announced his intention to retire in the near-term. The Corporation undertook an extensive search for a successor to Mr. Waterman. At the conclusion of the search and in consultation with the CCGC, it was determined that an internal candidate, Jason O’Connell, was best placed to succeed Mr. Waterman given Mr. O’Connell’s extensive knowledge of the Corporation’s business model and strategy. Mr. Waterman is scheduled to retire in April 2016 and the CCGC has determined that Mr. O’Connell has demonstrated that he is ready to assume Mr. Waterman’s responsibilities and Mr. O’Connell has been appointed Vice President, Oil & Gas, effective May 1, 2016. The Corporation is confident that appropriate succession strategies are being implemented to ensure the Corporation’s business will continue to be strongly managed in the future.

Ethical Business Conduct

Code of Business Conduct and Ethics

The Board has adopted a written Code of Business Conduct and Ethics (the “Code”) for the Corporation’s directors, officers and employees. The Code is available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com and on the Corporation’s web site at www.franco-nevada.com.

The Code reflects the Corporation’s core values of honesty, responsibility and fairness and addresses the following matters: compliance with laws, rules and regulations; conflicts of interest; confidentiality; corporate opportunities; protection and proper use of corporate assets; competition and fair dealing; gifts and entertainment; payments to government personnel; discrimination, harassment and equal opportunity; health and safety; accuracy of company records and reporting; use of e-mail and internet services; loans to or guarantees of obligations of the Corporation’s personnel; and reporting of any illegal or unethical behaviour.

With respect to the issue of conflicts of interest in particular, various officers, directors or other insiders of the Corporation may hold senior positions with entities involved in the resource industry or otherwise be involved in transactions within the resource industry and may develop other interests outside the Corporation. In the event that any such conflict of interest arises (or could potentially arise) for a director, such director will be required to disclose the conflict to a meeting of the directors of the Corporation and abstain from voting for or against the approval of such participation or such terms. In the event that any such conflict of interest arises (or could potentially arise) for an officer or other insider of the Corporation, such person will be required to disclose the conflict to the Chief Legal Officer and abstain from participating in any discussions related to such matter and the Board will be apprised of such conflict. In appropriate cases, the Corporation will establish a special committee of independent directors to review a matter in which several directors, or management, may have a conflict. Any decision made by any of such directors involving the Corporation will be required to be made in accordance with their duties and obligations to deal honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of the Corporation and its shareholders.

The CCGC will monitor compliance with the Code and be responsible for granting any waivers from the application of the Code and will review management’s monitoring of compliance with the Code. To date, no such waivers have been granted.

25

Under the Code, the Corporation’s personnel are expected to talk to supervisors, managers or other appropriate personnel including the Chief Legal Officer about observed illegal or unethical behaviour and when in doubt about the best course of action in a particular situation. All of the Corporation’s personnel are required to cooperate in internal investigations of misconduct.

Whistleblower Policy

The Board has adopted employee complaint procedures for accounting and auditing matters (collectively, the “Whistleblower Policy”) for the Corporation’s directors, officers and employees to enable such personnel to submit good faith complaints relating to any questionable accounting or auditing matter. The Whistleblower Policy outlines how an employee with a good faith concern about any accounting or auditing matter can report those concerns directly to the Chief Legal Officer, and on an anonymous basis, directly to the Chair of the ARC.

Policy Concerning Confidentiality, Fair Disclosure and Trading in Securities

The Board has adopted a policy concerning confidentiality, fair disclosure and trading in securities, which serves as the Corporation’s corporate disclosure policy and insider trading policy. This policy applies to the Corporation’s directors, officers and employees to ensure that such personnel comply with securities legislation and the rules of applicable stock exchanges relating to insider trading, tipping and selective disclosure.

With respect to confidentiality and disclosure, this policy generally outlines principles of confidentiality and guidelines for maintaining confidentiality, disclosure principles and guidelines for disclosure (including who the authorized spokespersons are and how discussions with the investing community will occur), what constitutes material information, what is non-public information and how forward-looking information should be disclosed.

With respect to trading in securities, this policy generally outlines prohibitions on trading, the Corporation’s policies on trading windows and black-out periods, required pre-approval for trades by insiders and sanctions if improper trading were to occur. This policy also prohibits the entering into of any “equity monetization” transactions or purchases of financial instruments, including prepaid variable forward contracts, equity swaps, collars or units of exchange funds that are designed to hedge or offset a decrease in market value of equity securities without the prior permission of the Board. This policy requires the Corporation’s personnel to report any violations immediately to the CEO or the Chief Legal Officer.

Risk Management

The Corporation’s enterprise risk management environment ensures that the key objectives and strategy for the success of the Corporation are achieved. The risk management process of the Corporation is a several pronged process involving management, the ARC and the Board of the Corporation. In its annual strategic planning session, the Board’s understanding of the current business strategy, its critical success factors and the related business risks is a key focus. The risks of the business are analyzed and reviewed together with strategic opportunities and issues. Management provides a detailed listing of risks and a related risk analysis, the latest of which was presented and reviewed with the ARC in November 2015. Included in this review, the roles of management, the ARC and the Board relating to risk were highlighted and reaffirmed. The Board is responsible for strategic aspects and the enforcement of an appropriate risk culture throughout the organization, including through the CCGC relating to compensation aspects. The ARC is charged with the supervision of the risk analysis and policing of the mitigation factors and plans. Management conducts a periodic detailed analysis of risks, recommended mitigation plans and is responsible for the implementation and review of effectiveness of such mitigation plans.

In addition, critical to the Corporation’s success is the appropriate management of risk around all assets including potential new investments. In this regard, the Board is fully engaged in the review of new investments. At Board meetings, management updates the Board on potential investments and seeks guidance on whether to proceed. Board members are also provided with monthly reports from the CEO in between Board meetings. Board members are very active in the review of potential investments including participating in due diligence and providing technical, political, financial, corporate social responsibility and other expertise. Directors are frequently involved by management to advise on specific due diligence or asset management issues. Directors will often accompany management on site visits to existing assets or potential investments and report independently to the Board on their observations.

26

If management proposes to proceed with a transaction in excess of a threshold amount, it must first seek Board approval. Below this threshold amount, management has discretion to proceed with an investment but must report the transaction to the Board in order to refresh its executive authority before being able to proceed with another investment. The Board is also regularly updated as to existing material assets and provided with risk assessments of those assets.

In February 2016, the Board was awarded TopGun status by the Brendan Wood International Shareholder Confidence Panel comprised of over 500 investors and sell-side professionals, including the majority of TopGun equity portfolio managers, research analysts and sell-side sales professionals both in Canada and abroad. The TopGun Board designation demonstrates the highest levels of confidence in a Board by major institutional investors.

Environmental and Corporate Social Responsibility Policy

The Board has adopted an environmental and corporate social responsibility policy which provides the framework for the Corporation’s approach to addressing its environmental and social responsibilities as a good corporate citizen. This policy acknowledges the nature of the Corporation’s business (i.e. that it invests in the businesses of others, principally through holding royalties or streams, and does not operate any mineral or oil & gas properties and that it is an entity with a very small workforce, with limited operations). This policy articulates the Corporation’s positions with respect to: (i) compliance with legal and regulatory environmental, health and safety and human rights requirements; (ii) due diligence in choosing its investments and their operators (i.e. that they must be “quality” operators); (iii) supporting the mineral and oil & gas industries (through industry associations and councils) in their efforts to operate in an environmentally and socially responsible fashion with continual improvement in sustainable development performance; (iv) employees of the Corporation making a positive impact on the environment and on social issues, including, where feasible, in the procurement of goods and services; and (v) maintaining open lines of communications with stakeholders and taking into account their concerns and suggestions.

The Corporation was also a leader and founding signatory of the World Gold Council’s Conflict-Free Gold Standard which was published in October 2012. The Corporation also occasionally makes corporate social investments in cooperation with the operators of its assets. In 2012, the Corporation committed to fund $500,000 over five years to support the new School of Mines at Laurentian University in Sudbury, Ontario. In 2013, 2014 and 2015, the Corporation made its annual contributions of $100,000 under this commitment.

Health and Safety Policy

The Board has adopted a health and safety policy which provides the framework for the Corporation’s approach to addressing health and safety risks. This policy acknowledges the nature of the Corporation’s business (as described above) and the fact that health and safety are not typically direct risks of the Corporation’s operations. This policy articulates the Corporation’s positions with respect to: (i) compliance with legal and regulatory health and safety requirements; (ii) the standard for the facilities in which the Corporation’s offices are located from a health and safety perspective; (iii) the health and safety responsibilities of the Corporation’s employees with respect to maintenance of the workplace, following rules and reporting issues and the Corporation’s responsibilities with respect to training its employees; (iv) violence and harassment in the workplace; and (iv) substance abuse.

Discrimination, Harassment and Equal Opportunity Policy

The Board has adopted a discrimination, harassment and equal opportunity policy which provides the framework for the Corporation to maintain an environment free of discrimination and harassment, in which all individuals are treated with respect and dignity, are able to contribute fully and have equal opportunities. This policy also deals with harassment and workplace violence. This policy articulates the Corporation’s position with respect to: (i) diversity, equal opportunity, discrimination (including grounds therefore), harassment and threats or acts of violence; (ii) reporting inappropriate conduct, harassment and workplace violence; (iii) disciplinary measures; and (iv) the development of procedures to prevent and address human rights issues.

STATEMENT OF EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

Dear Shareholders:

On behalf of the Board, the members of the Compensation and Corporate Governance Committee present our 2015 Statement of Executive Compensation.

The Corporation’s compensation program has remained stable over the past several years and is a straightforward compensation program which continues to be largely tied to long-term, at-risk, share-based incentive compensation. The Corporation’s compensation philosophy continues to be driven by a focus on absolute performance.

We believe we have created a strong alignment between executive compensation and long-term shareholder interests. The majority of the compensation that can be realized by our executives is directly tied to our share price performance and this compensation is payable over an extended period of time to ensure that the executive team maintains a long-term ownership perspective in managing the business.

The Corporation experienced another successful year in 2015. Highlights include over $1 billion being committed to new investments, including a new cornerstone asset being added to the Corporation’s portfolio, and the Corporation’s share price outperforming gold and all relevant gold equity benchmarks. Following an extensive review at year end, the CCGC determined that the Corporation had met or exceeded all corporate objectives for the year. The CCGC also took all other relevant external factors into account, including the downturn in the mining industry generally, and determined that a conservative approach to compensation for 2015 was warranted. As such, targeted incentive compensation was awarded in recognition of the shareholder value that was created during 2015 but no additional awards were granted. As well, compensation levels and targets for 2016 were maintained the same as 2015 in recognition of the challenges facing the mining industry.

The Board was pleased to welcome Dr. Catharine Farrow to the Board during 2015. Dr. Farrow has already made significant contributions to the Board with her technical expertise and experience. The CCGC plans to continue its efforts to identify additional women to join the Board as positions become available and looks forward to further improving gender diversity on the Board.

We are committed to maintaining high standards of corporate governance and compensation practices and we encourage and welcome your feedback.

Sincerely,

“Hon. David R. Peterson” “Graham Farquharson”

“Louis Gignac”

Messrs. Peterson, Farquharson and Gignac each have skills and direct experience as noted above that is relevant to their responsibilities in executive compensation and which enable them to make decisions on the suitability of the Corporation’s compensation policies and practices. They have each served on the compensation committees of other Canadian publicly-traded corporations and provided leadership in business, legal and/or government organizations in their current and/or past roles. In these roles, they have participated in compensation planning sessions, made compensation decisions and participated in compensation discussions with external consultants.

Responsibilities of the Compensation and Corporate Governance Committee

The CCGC was established by the Board to assist the Board in fulfilling its responsibilities relating to compensation matters, including the evaluation and approval of the Corporation’s compensation plans, policies and programs. It is the CCGC’s responsibility to ensure that the Corporation develops and maintains a compensation program for its executive officers that will be fair and competitive and consistent with the best interests of the Corporation. The CCGC is also responsible for ensuring compliance of the compensation policies and practices of the Corporation with its enterprise risk management goals.

The CCGC is responsible for reviewing the position description and performance goals and objectives relevant to the compensation of the CEO and for evaluating the CEO’s performance in light of those goals and objectives. The CCGC recommends to the Board the CEO’s compensation based on such evaluation. The CCGC is also responsible for making recommendations to the Board with respect to the compensation of all executive officers, including incentive compensation plans, equity-based plans (which the CCGC administers), the terms of any employment agreement, severance and change of control arrangements and any special or supplemental benefits. The CEO provides the CCGC with recommendations for compensation of other executive officers, supported by relevant factual data and an assessment of appropriate compensation. The CCGC is also responsible for making recommendations concerning the remuneration of directors.

Compensation Consultants

The CCGC has the authority to retain and receive advice from compensation consultants to carry out its duties, but to date has not determined it necessary to do so. Specifically, during the financial years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, no compensation consultants or advisors were retained to assist in determining compensation for any of the Corporation’s directors and officers, although the directors did continue to obtain guidance from experienced third parties on various compensation-related matters.

29

Compensation Philosophy and Objectives

The Corporation’s strategic objectives drive its compensation philosophy so that executive officers will expect a majority of their income will derive from the long-term growth of the Corporation’s share price. The Corporation has been increasing the emphasis placed on share ownership supported by RSUs and stock options. The Corporation does not provide for a pension plan or other benefits not generally available to all employees.

The Corporation’s overall compensation philosophy is that compensation should be sufficiently competitive to attract and retain talented employees, but that compensation should ultimately focus on the interests of employees at all levels of the Corporation being aligned with the interests of the Corporation’s shareholders. The Corporation is of the view that individual employee compensation should be linked to the performance of both the Corporation and each individual employee.

The specific objectives of the Corporation’s compensation program for executive officers are as follows:

· to attract and retain talented executive officers;

· to align the interests of executive officers with those of the Corporation’s shareholders; and

· to link individual executive compensation to the performance of both the Corporation and the performance of each individual executive officer.

The Corporation’s compensation program is designed to reward executive officers for:

· superior corporate performance relative to pre-set internal objectives;

· superior corporate performance relative to an external performance index (see “Benchmarking”); and

· exceptional levels of individual performance consistent with, and contributing to the achievement of, the Corporation’s strategic objectives.

Benchmarking

In the past, the Corporation has generally considered compensation programs in relevant sectors of the mining and oil & gas industries but has not specifically engaged in benchmarking with a specific peer group. The Corporation has developed a performance index based on external indices (against which share price performance will be measured) as one of five components of the vesting criteria for performance-based RSUs which may be awarded. For further information, see “Elements of Compensation — 2015 RSU Vesting” below.

Risk Management

The Board is responsible for strategic aspects relating to risk management and the enforcement of an appropriate risk management culture throughout the organization. The Board fulfils these responsibilities through the ARC generally and through the CCGC in relation to compensation aspects. The Board is ultimately responsible for considering the implications of risks associated with the Corporation’s compensation policies and practices. Through the ARC and outside advisors, the Board is advised of potential risks, including those relating to human capital, such as recruitment/retention, redundancy, workload/resources, HR support and succession. Through the CCGC, the Board is involved in the design of compensation policies to meet the specific compensation objectives discussed above and considers the risks relating to such policies. To mitigate inappropriate or excessive risk taking, the Corporation has practices in place. For example, the Corporation has a variety of compensation components that are designed to provide balance between base salary and long term at-risk variable compensation. Also, the Corporation’s long-term incentive compensation has been designed to address its retention objectives. The CCGC is responsible for ensuring compliance with the compensation policies and practices of the Corporation. The Corporation’s enterprise risk management environment is further described under “Statement of Governance Practices — Ethical Business Conduct — Risk Management”. To date, the Board and CCGC have not identified any risks arising from the Corporation’s compensation policies and practices that would be reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Corporation.

30

Elements of Compensation

The Corporation currently provides a compensation program for executive officers of base salary, and incentive compensation comprised of a non-equity annual incentive cash bonus and long-term, at-risk, share-based compensation which is further comprised of time-based RSUs, performance-based RSUs and stock options. The specific weightings of each component of compensation for the period 2013-2016 are set out in the chart below:

The Corporation also provides basic perquisites and benefits to its Named Executive Officers that are generally available to all employees. All Named Executive Officers have termination and change of control provisions in their employment agreements as described below. The Corporation does not provide any pension plan for any of its Named Executive Officers, nor does it have a deferred compensation plan for any of its Named Executive Officers.

Each element of compensation is discussed in more detail below.

Base Salary

Base salary is a fixed element of compensation for each Named Executive Officer for performing the position’s specific responsibilities and is typically determined with general reference to, among other things, base salary at industry peers. Base salary is intended to fit into the Corporation’s overall compensation objectives by serving to attract and retain talented executive officers. To date, increases to base salaries have sometimes been awarded to recognize performance, professional progression, and to provide for more individualized compensation. Increases to base salary have also factored in cost of living adjustments. Notwithstanding any such increases to base salary, the Corporation continues to place a greater relative emphasis on long-term, at-risk, share-based compensation with such compensation comprising 50% of targeted total compensation (other than for the CEO whose long-term, at-risk share based compensation is targeted at 60% of total compensation). For 2016, the CCGC has determined that base salary will remain at the same percentage targets of total compensation as the past three years (33% for the Named Executive Officers other than the CEO, whose base salary will be targeted at 20% of total compensation).

The CCGC has considered, and will consider, the following factors in setting base salaries:

· the level of responsibility related to each executive officer’s position;

· the base salaries paid to equivalent executive officers at industry peers generally;

· the experience of the executive officer; and

· the executive officer’s overall performance versus established goals and objectives.

31

Incentive Compensation

Incentive compensation is a variable element of compensation comprising annual cash bonuses and long-term, at-risk, share-based compensation.

Annual cash bonuses are a short-term variable element of compensation that reward each Named Executive Officer for both corporate and individual performance and are typically determined with reference to pre-set corporate and individual performance objectives. Annual cash bonuses are intended to fit into the Corporation’s overall compensation objectives by directly linking individual compensation to the performance of both the Corporation and the individual. The CCGC has determined that annual cash bonuses, if awarded, will be capped at a maximum of 200% of base salary in order to mitigate excessive risk-taking and limit potential windfalls but that the specific targets as discussed below would be the baseline target for achievement of pre-set corporate and personal objectives for the year.

Share-based compensation is a long-term, at-risk, variable element of compensation that directly and indirectly aligns the interests of Named Executive Officers with shareholders and encourages retention. The components of the share-based compensation comprising performance-based RSUs (which are subject to the achievement of pre-determined performance objectives), time-based RSUs (with vesting over a three-year period) and stock options (with vesting over a three-year period and a ten-year term), are elements of compensation that directly tie an executive officer’s compensation to shareholder returns and the performance of both the Corporation and the individual over the long term and are determined with reference to certain long-term corporate and individual performance objectives.

Awards of incentive compensation to Named Executive Officers are targeted as a percentage of base salary. Over time, the targets have been adjusted to place a greater emphasis on long-term, at-risk, share based compensation. For 2015, each component of incentive compensation was targeted as set out in the graphs below. The targets for 2016 remain the same.

For 2015, incentive compensation comprised approximately 80% of total compensation for the CEO and 67% of total compensation for the other Named Executive Officers, with long-term, at-risk, share-based compensation accounting for 75% of total incentive compensation.

Incentive compensation is awarded up to the targeted percentages set out above on the basis of the achievement of pre-set corporate and personal objectives for the year. These may include both quantitative and qualitative objectives for both the Corporation and the individual Named Executive Officer. For the past three years, the CCGC and Board have set corporate objectives to drive achievement in the areas of growth, performance, margins, governance and succession. These areas have been selected to encourage good decision-making over the business cycle as opposed to focusing on results in any one year. The CEO also sets personal objectives for the Named Executive Officers which are specific to the year and their personal development. The CCGC and Board retain final discretion to award incentive compensation absent attainment of the relevant objectives or to reduce or increase the size of any award or payout. To date, the Board and CCGC have not exercised such discretion. See, however, “Additional Awards”. The CEO is not guaranteed an award of

32

any incentive compensation under poor market conditions and it is possible for the CEO to receive no incentive compensation.

For 2015, corporate and personal objectives included: growing the Corporation through value-added acquisitions, outperforming internal corporate benchmarks, maintaining margins through containing costs, ensuring good governance through robust asset management and risk control and planning for succession and proper technical depth. The following chart outlines the objectives (which involved both subjective and objective considerations) for each Named Executive Officer and the weighting by importance of each objective to the respective role of each executive officer for each year:

|  | Weighting for each Named Executive Officer |
Objective |  | Chief Executive Officer |  | Chief Financial Officer |  | Chief Legal Officer |  | Chief Operating Officer |  | Business Development |
Growth |  | High (20%) |  | Medium |  | Medium |  | High |  | High |
Performance - including comparative benchmarks and market indices |  | High (20%) |  | Medium |  | Medium |  | Medium |  | Medium |
Margins |  | High (20%) |  | High |  | Low |  | Medium |  | Medium |
Governance |  | High (20%) |  | High |  | High |  | Low |  | Low |
Succession |  | High (20%) |  | Medium |  | Medium |  | Medium |  | Medium |

For 2016, corporate and personal objectives for executive officers (including the CEO) will continue to include those set out in the chart above. The CEO’s objectives will continue to be the same as those for the Corporation. For the CEO, each of the objectives will be weighted as “high” and will be equally weighted (i.e. 20%), subject to the discretion of the CCGC. The CCGC will continue to use both subjective and objective measures for considering each of the corporate objectives set out in the chart above. For growth, the CCGC will consider the number, nature and value of transactions. For performance, the CCGC will consider share price performance, net asset value and market capitalization. For margins, the CCGC will consider earnings and revenues against budget and 2015 results and general and administrative expense performance against budget. For governance, the CCGC will consider external rating agency rankings and surveys and accomplishments with respect to other governance best practices. For succession, the CCGC will consider progress in developing depth in the organization, the quality of new hires, if any, and assessment of the progression of succession candidates.

Incentive Awards

2015 Performance of CEO: The CEO’s personal objectives were the same as the corporate objectives. As noted in the chart above, for the CEO, each of the objectives was weighted as “high” and was equally weighted (i.e. 20%), subject to the discretion of the CCGC. The CCGC used both subjective and objective measures in considering each of the corporate objectives set out in the chart above and concluded that these corporate objectives were met or exceeded by the Corporation. Further detail is set out in the table below.

33

Objective |  | Objective Measures Considered |  | Subjective Measures Considered |  | Conclusion
Growth |  | · Over $1 billion in new investments were completed including the acquisition of a new cornerstone asset in the Corporation’s portfolio, a silver stream on the Antamina mine in Peru, for $610 million |  | · Numerous opportunities considered and declined · Antamina stream acquisition provided immediate substantial cash flow in a robust operation with upside potential |  | Objective exceeded
Performance |  | · 10.64% increase in share price on a C$ basis · 8th consecutive year of increased dividend payments |  | · Share price outperformed against gold and all relevant gold equity benchmarks |  | Objective achieved
Margins |  | · Margins(1) over 75% · Record gold equivalent ounces (“GEOs”) earned of 360,070 GEOs, a 22.7% increase over 2014 |  | · Revenues outperformed the decline in gold price · G&A remained stable |  | Objective achieved
Governance |  | · Director education events successfully implemented |  | · Improved scores with external governance agencies |  | Objective achieved
Succession |  | · Successor to Chief Operating Officer appointed · Additional depth added to the Business Development team and Legal team |  | · No unexpected staff turnover |  | Objective achieved

Note

(1) Margin is defined by the Corporation as Adjusted EBITDA divided by revenue. Please refer to the Corporation’s financial statements for additional detail.

2015 Performance of Other Named Executive Officers: Information regarding the CCGC’s assessment on the attainment of corporate objectives is set out above. For personal objectives, the CCGC considered the CEO’s performance reviews of each executive officer against his key responsibilities and specific objectives set at the beginning of 2015. The CCGC concluded that these personal objectives were met or exceeded by each of the Corporation’s executive officers. Based on the foregoing, all of the executive officers received incentive compensation awards comprising cash bonuses, time-based RSUs, performance-based RSUs and stock options equal to their targeted percentages of base salary.

2015 RSU Vesting

Time-based RSUs awarded in December 2015 will vest annually in equal thirds commencing on the first anniversary of the award date. Performance-based RSUs awarded in December 2015 will vest 100% after three years from the date of the award, if the performance-vesting criteria are met on the measurement date. The performance-vesting criteria involves five components as follows: (i) growth; (ii) performance; (iii) margins; (iv) governance; and (v) succession, as further set out in the objectives chart above. Satisfaction of such criteria for vesting for the 2015-2018 RSUs will be definitively determined by the CCGC at a meeting to consider the matter which will be held in late 2018.

With respect to the second component, being performance, the CCGC has given considerable attention to developing a broadly-based performance index based on external indices (the “2015-2018 RSU Index”) against which to measure the Corporation’s share price performance and thus management’s performance over this three-year period as one of the five components of the vesting criteria. The 2015-2018 RSU Index takes into account the following components: the performance of key commodities underlying the Corporation’s asset portfolio; the performance of certain gold and energy indices; and the performance of reference stock market indices. The relative weighting of the precious metals and energy components within the 2015-2018 RSU Index will be based upon the relative contribution of gold, platinum, palladium and energy to the projected revenues of the Corporation for the life of the RSUs awarded.

The specific components of the 2015-2018 RSU Index, other than the weightings of the various components, for the three-year measurement period from December 11, 2015 through December 11, 2018 have been established by the CCGC. At the end of the measurement period, one of the factors to be weighed in determining whether the Performance-based RSUs will vest is the measuring of the Corporation’s share price performance against the performance of the 2015-2018 RSU Index.

For illustrative purposes, using the relevant figures as at December 31, 2015, the 2015-2018 RSU Index would have been composed of the following items with the following weightings for the fiscal year 2016 (based on the Corporation’s commodity revenue mix as at December 31, 2015 and the Corporation’s 2016 budget):

34

The relative weighting of the precious metals and energy components, for the commodity prices and the indices, will be based upon the relative contribution of precious metals and energy to the projected revenues of the Corporation for each relevant fiscal year’s results for the three years following the grants as at December 31 in each year.

The CCGC expects that awarded performance-based RSUs would be adjusted if a performance goal or similar condition on which they were based was restated or adjusted.

Additional Awards

The Board has the ability to make further additional awards when considered appropriate. Circumstances when such an additional award may be considered by the Board could include, when in the Board’s judgment: (a) there has been achievement of exceptional performance or outcomes beyond the targeted achievements previously contemplated by the Corporation’s incentive programs; (b) there is a specific need to recognize a change in the role of or to retain a key executive officer; or (c) previously established base salaries and targeted incentives are not reflective of the current market. An additional award can consist of cash, options and/or RSUs and is a variable element of compensation that rewards an executive officer for extraordinary performance.

The Board has approved additional awards in the past in recognition of corporate and individual performance. No additional awards were granted to the CEO or Named Executive Officers in 2015.

Perquisites and Personal Benefits

The Corporation provides credits for perquisites and benefits to its Named Executive Officers, which include health and insurance benefits, as well as basic fitness club memberships and parking. Given the relatively nominal nature of these perquisites and benefits, they do not affect decisions about other elements of compensation. The Corporation has no pension plan or other programs related to retirement funding.

35

Termination and Change of Control Benefits

Each Named Executive Officer of the Corporation also has termination and double-trigger change of control provisions in his employment agreement. See “Summary Compensation Table — Discussion of Summary Compensation Table — Employment Agreements”, “Termination Benefits” and “Change of Control Benefits” below. The CCGC took into account market standards for termination and change of control benefits when determining the events that trigger payment under these arrangements.

Other Compensation-Related Matters

Financial Instruments: The Corporation’s Policy Concerning Confidentiality, Fair Disclosure and Trading in Securities requires pre-approval for trades by insiders. The policy also prohibits the entering into of any “equity monetization” transactions or purchases of financial instruments, including prepaid variable forward contracts, equity swaps, collars or units of exchange funds that are designed to hedge or offset a decrease in market value of equity securities without the prior permission of the Board.

Anticipated Changes to Compensation Policies and Practices: The Corporation does not intend to make any significant changes to its compensation policies and practices for fiscal 2016 other than as disclosed in this Circular.

Performance Graph

The graph below compares the cumulative total return over the five years ended December 31, 2015 of the common shares of the Corporation with the cumulative total return of the S&P/TSX Global Gold Index, the S&P/TSX Composite Index and the S&P/TSX Capped Energy Index assuming a C$100 investment was made on December 31, 2010 and that all dividends had been reinvested.

Comparison of Cumulative Total Shareholder Return
on a C$100 Investment in Common Shares
of the Corporation and the Relevant S&P/TSX Indices

Over the five-year period ended December 31, 2015, an investment in the Corporation has resulted in a compound annual return on the investment of 15.0% (including dividends), significantly outperforming the

36

market as set out in the graph above. Over the same five-year period, the trend of executive compensation has been aligned with total shareholder returns.

Summary Compensation Table

The following table (presented in accordance with Form 51-102F6) sets forth all direct and indirect compensation for, or in connection with, services provided to the Corporation and its subsidiaries for the financial years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013 in respect of the CEO, the Chief Financial Officer and the other three most highly compensated executive officers of the Corporation.

Discussion of Summary Compensation Table

Additional factors necessary to understand the information disclosed in the Summary Compensation Table above include the terms of each Named Executive Officer’s employment agreement and executive officers’ equity investment requirements.

Employment Agreements

Each of the Named Executive Officers has entered into an employment agreement with the Corporation which provides for a base salary, subject to an annual review by the CCGC which may recommend to the Board increases to such base salary. Each Named Executive Officer is also entitled to receive a performance based-bonus based on satisfaction of performance criteria set by the CCGC for each year which may be payable in cash and/or securities of the Corporation and on a deferred basis, such terms to be determined in the sole discretion of the Board or CCGC consistent with the Corporation’s incentive compensation plans. Each Named Executive Officer is also eligible to participate in the Share Compensation Plan and is required to hold an amount of securities in accordance with the Corporation’s Equity Ownership Policy for Executives. Mr. Harquail has additionally agreed to hold for one year following departure from the Corporation the securities he has received from the Corporation in the then most recent three-year period under the Corporation’s equity incentive compensation plans.

For information as to the termination provisions and termination and change of control benefits provided in the above employment agreements, including changes to certain of the Named Executive Officers’ employment agreements, see “Termination and Change of Control Benefits” below.

38

Clawback

The President & Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have each agreed to a claw back of their incentive compensation. If the Corporation’s financial statements are required to be restated due to the fraudulent behaviour or other intentional misconduct of such executive officers, they have agreed to reimburse the Corporation for, or surrender, as applicable, any entitlement to any bonus or other incentive-based or equity-based compensation received by them during the 12-month period following the issuance/filing of the financial statements required to be restated.

Executives’ Equity Investment Requirements

With a view to aligning the interests of executive officers with those of shareholders, each executive officer of the Corporation is required to hold a minimum equity investment in the Corporation equivalent in value to a multiple of the executive officer’s then current base salary, depending on the executive officer’s level of responsibility. The requirement is to be satisfied in the form of common shares and RSUs of the Corporation. Each executive officer has a period of three years from the date on which he commenced employment with the Corporation as an executive officer, to satisfy the minimum equity investment requirement. At the time of the Corporation’s IPO, the executive officers at such time had subscribed for an aggregate of 2,000,000 common shares of the Corporation in order to ensure that the interests of the executive officers would be aligned with shareholders.

Under the Equity Ownership Policy for Executive Officers, if an executive officer has not achieved the minimum equity investment at the time of any options being exercised by the executive officer, he shall be required to continue to hold at least 50% or such lesser number of the common shares issuable upon the exercise of such options as required to achieve the minimum equity ownership requirements and if an executive officer has not achieved the minimum equity investment at the time of any RSUs vesting, the executive officer will be required to continue to hold at least 50% or such lesser number of the common shares issuable upon the RSUs vesting required to achieve the minimum equity ownership requirements.

For the purpose of determining the value of the equity investment of an executive officer at any time, the value of common shares and RSUs held by such executive officer will be based on the higher of (i) the acquisition cost of such common shares and RSUs; and (ii) the current market value of the common shares held and of the RSUs. The following table summarizes the equity investment in the Corporation of each Named Executive Officer as at March 15, 2016 (including ownership requirements for 2016 and onwards).

Other Information

There were no repricings during the financial year ended December 31, 2015. During the financial year ended December 31, 2015, no changes were made to the Share Compensation Plan (as defined below).

Notes

(1) Options vest over a three-year period in equal thirds commencing on the first anniversary of the grant date and have a 10-year term. Grant dates coincide with the date 10 years prior to the option expiration date.

(2) The value of unexercised options was calculated using the closing price of the common shares on the TSX on December 31, 2015, which was C$63.30 per share, less the exercise price of the options. The rate used for currency translation into U.S. dollars was 0.7225, which was the Bank of Canada noon rate on December 31, 2015.

(3) Represents time-based and performance-based RSUs. RSUs (ordered as time-based RSUs followed by performance-based RSUs) are listed in chronological order by grant date of December 11, 2013, December 11, 2014 and December 11, 2015, respectively. Time-based RSUs vest annually in equal thirds commencing on the first anniversary of the grant date and the figures listed represent the one-third (December 11, 2013 original grant), two-thirds (December 11, 2014 grant) and full grant (December 11, 2015 grant), respectively, of the original grant of RSUs that remain unvested. Performance-based RSUs vest on the third anniversary of the award date (i.e. December 11, 2016, December 11, 2017 and December 11, 2018) upon satisfaction of certain performance criteria as described in “Elements of Compensation — 2015 RSU Vesting” above in respect of the 2015 Performance-based RSUs and as described in the Corporation’s information circulars dated March 25, 2015 and March 21, 2014 in respect of the 2014 and 2013 performance-based RSUs, respectively.

(4) The market or payout value as at December 31, 2015 was calculated using the closing price on the TSX of C$63.30 per share and translated into U.S. dollars using the Bank of Canada noon rate on that day of 0.7225.

(2) The value of unexercised options was calculated using the closing price of the common shares on the TSX on December 31, 2015, which was C$63.30 per share, less the exercise price of the options. The rate used for currency translation into U.S. dollars was 0.7225, which was the Bank of Canada noon rate on December 31, 2015.

Discussion of Incentive Plan Awards

The significant terms of all plan-based awards, including non-equity incentive plan awards, issued or vested, or under which options have been exercised, during the year, or outstanding at year end, are set out above in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis and below under “Other Information - Share Compensation Plan”. An aggregate of 321,000 outstanding stock options held by two Named Executive Officers were exercised during the financial year ended December 31, 2015.

For 2016, incentive compensation will consist of an award of a cash bonus, time-based RSUs, performance-based RSUs and stock options which in the aggregate will be targeted at 200% of base salary (other than for the CEO, who will have a target of 400% of base salary). For illustrative purposes, if all pre-set corporate and personal objectives for 2016 are met, in 2016 cash bonuses, time-based RSUs, stock options and performance-based RSUs will be awarded as follows:

Illustrative Incentive Compensation

Note

(1) Mr. Waterman has not been included in this table as he is scheduled to retire in April 2016.

Termination and Change of Control Benefits

Each of the Named Executive Officers has entered into an employment agreement with the Corporation that provides for payments at, following or in connection with a termination (whether voluntary, involuntary or constructive), resignation, retirement, a change of control of the Corporation or a change in such Named Executive Officers’ responsibilities.

43

Termination Benefits

If a Named Executive Officer is terminated without just cause or resigns for “good reason” as defined in the applicable employment agreement (see below), such Named Executive Officer will be entitled to a lump sum severance payment equal to the sum of 24 months’ base salary (determined as at the time of termination or resignation, as applicable). The individual will also be entitled to continue participating in the Corporation’s benefit plans for the same 24 month period. If the Corporation is unable to continue the individual’s participation in one or more of its benefit plans, the Corporation is required to pay an amount equal to the premium cost or contributions that would have otherwise been made for the same period of time.

Under the terms of the Named Executive Officers’ employment agreements, the concept of resignation for “good reason” applies in circumstances unrelated to a “change of control” (see below). The concept of “good reason” generally includes:

(a) changes in a Named Executive Officer’s duties or status, including a material change to the Named Executive Officer’s reporting relationship;

(b) a change in aggregate compensation which would include annual base salary and the Named Executive Officer’s aggregate incentive compensation or aggregate target incentive compensation that would have the effect of reducing aggregate compensation by 35% or more, including any change in performance metrics that would produce such a result;

(c) failure by the Corporation to continue to provide benefits at least as favourable as those initially provided or the taking of any action that would materially reduce any such benefits;

(d) the Corporation requiring the Named Executive Officer to relocate; and

(e) failure by the Corporation to obtain a satisfactory agreement from a successor corporation to assume and agree to perform the employment agreement.

For illustrative purposes, in accordance with Form 51-102F6, if a Named Executive Officer had been terminated without just cause or had resigned for “good reason” on December 31, 2015, the amounts payable as of such date would have been as follows:

Illustrative Termination Amounts

Name |  | Aggregate amount payable for base salary(1) |  | Aggregate amount payable for perquisites and benefits(2) |
David Harquail |  | $ | 1,173,000 |  | $ | 25,828 |
Sandip Rana |  | $ | 703,800 |  | $ | 18,386 |
Geoff Waterman |  | $ | 547,400 |  | $ | 24,448 |
Paul Brink |  | $ | 782,000 |  | $ | 18,386 |
Lloyd Hong |  | $ | 625,600 |  | $ | 23,798 |

Notes

(1) Equal to 24 months’ base salary for each Named Executive Officer as disclosed in the Summary Compensation Table.

(2) The actual amounts of perquisites for all Named Executive Officers have been disclosed in the Summary Compensation Table and it has been assumed that payment of these amounts would continue for 24 months.

Change of Control Benefits

The Named Executive Officers have double-trigger “change of control” provisions in their applicable employment agreements. A “change of control” is defined as: (i) the acquisition of control in law (whether by sale, transfer, merger, consolidation or otherwise) of the Corporation by a third party (that is, the acquisition of control of at least 50.1% of the issued and outstanding voting shares of the Corporation) or (ii) the sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Corporation to a third party.

In the event that a “change of control” occurs and the Named Executive Officer is terminated without cause or resigns for “good reason” within the twelve-month period following the “change of control”, the Corporation is required to provide to the Named Executive Officer a lump sum payment equal to a multiple of the Named Executive Officer’s base salary and bonus (see below) at the time of termination or resignation, as applicable.

44

For this purpose, the term bonus means the sum of: (i) the cash bonus awarded for performance during the calendar year preceding the “change of control”; and (ii) the grant date dollar value of all share-based compensation awarded for performance during the calendar year preceding the “change of control”. The Corporation is also required to continue the Named Executive Officer’s benefits coverage for a specified period (see below). If the Corporation is unable to continue the Named Executive Officer’s participation in one or more of its benefit plans, the Corporation is required to pay an amount equal to the premium cost or contributions that would have otherwise been made for the same period of time. Under the terms of the Share Compensation Plan, all unvested RSUs and all options (whether or not currently exercisable) will vest or become exercisable, as applicable, at such time as determined by the CCGC in its sole discretion such that the Named Executive Officers will be able to participate in a change of control transaction, including by surrendering such RSUs or options, for consideration in the form of cash and/or securities, to be determined by the CCGC in its sole discretion.

For illustrative purposes, in accordance with Form 51-102F6, if a Named Executive Officer had been terminated without just cause or had resigned for “good reason” on December 31, 2015 following a “change of control”, the applicable multiple, the amount payable based on base salary and bonus actually received for 2015, the specified period for benefits, the amount payable for benefits, the value of options vested as of such date (assuming accelerated vesting of all options as a result of the change of control) and the value of RSUs vested as of such date (assuming accelerated vesting of all RSUs (both time-based and performance-based) as a result of the change of control) would have been as follows:

Note

Share Compensation Plan

The Corporation’s share compensation plan (the “Share Compensation Plan”) was approved by shareholders at the annual and special meeting of shareholders held on May 12, 2010 (and was amended in November 2010 to update the tax and source deduction provisions relating to RSUs). The Share Compensation Plan replaced the Corporation’s stock option plan established at the time of its IPO (the “Option Plan”) and the Corporation’s original restricted share unit plan (the “Restricted Share Unit Plan”). Options that were granted under the Option Plan remain outstanding pursuant to their original terms. There are no RSUs outstanding under the Restricted Share Unit Plan. Please see the Corporation’s management information circular dated April 7, 2010 for a summary of the terms of the Option Plan.

Purpose: The stated purpose of the Share Compensation Plan is to advance the interests of the Corporation and its shareholders by: (a) ensuring that the interests of officers and employees are aligned with the success of the Corporation; (b) encouraging stock ownership by such persons; and (c) providing compensation opportunities to attract, retain and motivate such persons.

Participants: Each officer and employee of the Corporation and its subsidiaries is eligible to participate in the Share Compensation Plan. Non-employee directors of the Corporation are not eligible to participate in the Share Compensation Plan in respect of RSUs. Under the Share Compensation Plan, non-employee directors of the Corporation are eligible to participate in respect of options, however, only on a limited basis consistent with the guidelines of certain governance rating agencies. See “Restrictions on the Award of RSUs and Grant of Options” below.

Administration: The Share Compensation Plan is administered by the CCGC, which determines, from time to time, the eligibility of persons to participate in the Share Compensation Plan, when RSUs and options will be awarded or granted, the number of RSUs and options to be awarded or granted, the vesting criteria for each

46

award of RSUs and grant of options and all other terms and conditions of each award and grant, in each case in accordance with applicable securities laws and stock exchange requirements.

Plan Maximum and Common Shares Reserved for Issuance: The Share Compensation Plan has a fixed maximum of 5,700,876 common shares. Taking into account the change from a 5% rolling plan to a fixed maximum plan effective May 12, 2010, an aggregate of 3,196,362 common shares are currently reserved for issuance under the Share Compensation Plan on the following basis:

Common Shares Reserved under the Share Compensation Plan

|  | Options |  | RSUs |  | Aggregate |
Total granted/awarded to date |  | 4,548,780 |  | 379,049 | (1) | 4,927,829 |
Vested (not exercised) |  | 1,195,625 |  | 205,046 |  | 1,400,671 |
Exercised/issued |  | 2,762,966 |  | 205,046 |  | 2,968,012 |
Cancelled/otherwise terminated |  | 193,334 |  | 15,291 |  | 208,625 |
Total exercisable/issuable under the Plan |  | 1,592,480 |  | 158,712 |  | 1,751,192 |
% of issued and outstanding common shares |  | 0.90 | % | 0.09 | % | 0.99 | %

Note

(1) 215,828 performance-based and 163,221 time-based RSUs.

Based on the foregoing, an aggregate of 1,445,170 common shares remain available for issuance pursuant to future grants and awards under the Share Compensation Plan (being approximately 0.81% of the issued and outstanding common shares.

Restriction on the Award of RSUs and Grant of Options: Certain restrictions on awards of RSUs and grants of options apply as follows: (a) the total number of common shares issuable to any one person under the Share Compensation Plan and any other share compensation arrangements cannot exceed 5% of the common shares then outstanding; (b) the number of common shares reserved for issuance under the Share Compensation Plan together with any other share compensation arrangements cannot exceed 5% of the common shares then outstanding; (c) the number of common shares issuable to insiders under the Share Compensation Plan and any other share compensation arrangements cannot exceed 5% of the common shares then outstanding; (d) the number of common shares issued to insiders under the Share Compensation Plan and any other share compensation arrangements within any one-year period cannot exceed 5% of the common shares then outstanding; and (e) the number of common shares issued to any one person within any one-year period cannot exceed 5% of the common shares then outstanding. In addition, consistent with the guidelines of certain governance rating agencies relating to participation of non-employee directors in option plans, the number of common shares reserved for issuance to non-employee directors pursuant to options under the Share Compensation Plan is limited to the lesser of: (i) 0.25% of the common shares then issued and outstanding; and (ii) C$1,000,000 in total value of grants that each director receives over the life of the Share Compensation Plan from the effective date thereof or an annual grant value of C$100,000 per director, in both cases based on a valuation determined using the Black-Scholes formula or any other formula which is widely accepted by the business community as a method for the valuation of options.

Restricted Share Units:

(a) |  | Mechanics for RSUs: RSUs awarded to participants under the Share Compensation Plan are credited to an account that is established on their behalf and maintained in accordance with the Share Compensation Plan. Each RSU awarded conditionally entitles the holder thereof to the issuance of one common share upon achievement of the vesting criteria. It is currently anticipated that RSUs awarded under the Share Compensation Plan will be redeemed for common shares issued from treasury once the vesting criteria established by the CCGC at the time of the award have been satisfied. However, the Corporation will continue to retain the flexibility through the amendment provisions in the Share Compensation Plan to satisfy its obligation to issue common shares by purchasing common shares in the open market or by making a lump sum cash payment of equivalent value.
(b) |  | Vesting: The Share Compensation Plan provides that: (i) at the time of the award of RSUs, the CCGC will determine the vesting criteria applicable to the awarded RSUs; (ii) vesting of RSUs may include

47

criteria such as performance-vesting; (iii) RSUs with time-vesting criteria will, at a minimum (i.e. as the least restrictive criteria), vest annually in equal thirds commencing on the first anniversary of the award date; and (iv) RSUs with performance-vesting criteria will, at a minimum (i.e. as the least restrictive criteria), vest on the first day after the first anniversary of the award date of such RSUs. Currently, the CCGC has determined that performance-based RSUs will, subject to the achievement of pre-determined performance objectives, vest on the first day after the third anniversary of the award date of such RSUs. It is the CCGC’s current intention that RSUs will be awarded with both time-based vesting provisions and performance-based vesting provisions as components of the Corporation’s long-term, at-risk, incentive compensation program.

Options:

(a) Mechanics for Options: Each option granted will entitle the holder thereof to the issuance of one common share upon achievement of the vesting criteria and payment of the applicable exercise price. Options granted under the Share Compensation Plan are exercisable for common shares issued from treasury once the vesting criteria established by the CCGC at the time of the grant have been satisfied. However, the Corporation has the flexibility to satisfy its obligation to issue common shares by making a lump sum cash payment of equivalent value (i.e. pursuant to a cashless exercise), provided there is a full deduction of the number of underlying common shares from the Share Compensation Plan’s reserve. Specifically, the Share Compensation Plan has a cashless exercise feature in respect of options to facilitate the required tax and source deduction remittances. Under this feature, a participant may elect a cashless exercise in a notice of exercise of options if the common shares issuable on the exercise are to be immediately sold.

(b) Vesting: The Share Compensation Plan provides that at the time of the grant of options, the CCGC will determine the vesting criteria applicable to the granted options and that unless otherwise determined by the CCGC, options shall vest annually in equal thirds commencing on the first anniversary of the award date.

(c) Exercise Price: The CCGC will determine the exercise price and term/expiration date of each option, provided that the exercise price shall not be less than the fair market value (i.e. weighted average trading price for the last five trading days) on the date the option is granted and no option shall be exercisable after ten years from the date on which it is granted.

Termination, Retirement and Other Cessation of Employment: A person participating in the Share Compensation Plan will cease to be eligible to participate in the following circumstances: (a) receipt of any notice of termination of employment or service (whether voluntary or involuntary and whether with or without cause); (b) retirement; and (c) any cessation of employment or service for any reason whatsoever, including disability and death (an “Event of Termination”). In such circumstances, unless otherwise determined by the CCGC in its discretion, any unvested RSUs will be automatically forfeited and cancelled and any unvested options will be automatically cancelled, terminated and not available for exercise. Any vested options may be exercised only before the earlier of: (i) the termination of the option; and (ii) six months after the date of the Event of Termination. If a person is terminated for just cause, all unvested RSUs must be forfeited and cancelled and all options are (whether or not then exercisable) automatically cancelled. If a person retires in accordance with the Corporation’s retirement policy at such time, the pro-rata portion of any unvested performance-based RSUs will not be forfeited or cancelled and instead shall vest after the retirement has occurred (as if it had not occurred), but only if the performance vesting criteria are met on the applicable measurement date.

Blackout Periods: Under the Share Compensation Plan, should the vesting of an RSU fall, or the term of an option expire on a date that falls, within a blackout period or within nine business days following the expiration of a blackout period, the vesting or expiration dated, as applicable, will be automatically extended to the tenth business day after the end of the blackout period.

Change of Control: The Share Compensation Plan provides that any unvested RSUs and any unvested options will vest at such time as determined by the CCGC such that RSU and option holders will be able to participate in a change of control transaction, including by surrendering such RSUs and options to the Corporation or a third party or exchanging such RSUs and options, for consideration in the form of cash and/or securities.

48

Transferability: RSUs awarded and options granted under the Share Compensation Plan are non-transferable other than in accordance with the Share Compensation Plan.

Amendment Provisions in the Share Compensation Plan: The Board may amend the Share Compensation Plan or any RSU or option at any time without the consent of any participants under the Share Compensation Plan provided that such amendment shall:

(a) not adversely alter or impair any RSU previously awarded or any option previously granted except as permitted by the adjustment provisions of the Share Compensation Plan;

(b) be subject to any regulatory approvals including, where required, the approval of the Toronto Stock Exchange; and

(c) be subject to shareholder approval, where required, by law or the requirements of the Toronto Stock Exchange, provided that shareholder approval shall not be required for the following amendments:

(i) amendments of a “housekeeping nature”, including any amendment to the Share Compensation Plan or a RSU or option that is necessary to comply with applicable laws, tax or accounting provisions or the requirements of any regulatory authority or stock exchange and any amendment to the Share Compensation Plan or a RSU or option to correct or rectify any ambiguity, defective provision, error or omission therein, including any amendment to any definitions therein;

(ii) amendments that are necessary for RSUs or options to qualify for favourable treatment under applicable tax laws;

(iii) a change to the vesting provisions of any RSU or any option (including any alteration, extension or acceleration thereof);

(iv) a change to the termination provisions of any option (for example, relating to termination of employment, resignation, retirement or death) that does not entail an extension beyond the original expiration date (as such date may be extended by virtue of a blackout period);

(v) the introduction of features to the Share Compensation Plan that would permit the Corporation to, instead of issuing common shares from treasury upon the vesting of the RSUs, retain a broker and make payments for the benefit of participants under the Share Compensation Plan to such broker who would purchase common shares through the facilities of the Toronto Stock Exchange for such persons;

(vi) the introduction of features to the Share Compensation Plan that would permit the Corporation to, instead of issuing common shares from treasury upon the vesting of the RSUs, make lump sum cash payments to participants under the Share Compensation Plan;

(vii) the introduction of a cashless exercise feature payable in cash or securities, which provides for a full deduction of the number of underlying securities from the Share Compensation Plan reserve (which amendment has been made in respect of options to facilitate the required tax and source deduction remittances); and

(viii) change the application of adjustment and change of control sections.

For greater certainty, shareholder approval will be required in circumstances where an amendment to the Share Compensation Plan would:

(a) increase the fixed maximum number of common shares issuable under the Share Compensation Plan, other than by virtue of the adjustment provisions in the Share Compensation Plan, or change from a fixed maximum number of common shares to a fixed maximum percentage of issued and outstanding common shares;

(b) increase the limits referred to above under “Restrictions on the Award of RSUs and Grant of Options”;

(c) permit the award of RSUs to non-employee directors of the Corporation or a change in the limitations on grants of options to non-employee directors;

(d) permit RSUs or options to be transferable or assignable other than for normal estate settlement purposes;

49

(e) reduce the exercise price of any option (including any cancellation of an option for the purpose of reissuance of a new option at a lower exercise price to the same person);

(f) extend the term of any option beyond the original term (except if such period is being extended by virtue of a blackout period); or

(g) amend the amendment provisions in the Share Compensation Plan.

Amendments to the Share Compensation Plan: During the year ended December 31, 2015, no amendments were made to the Share Compensation Plan.

Indebtedness of Directors and Officers

During the most recently completed financial year and as at the date hereof, no director, proposed nominee for election as a director, officer, employee or associate of any such persons has been or is indebted to the Corporation nor has the Corporation guaranteed any loans on behalf of any of these individuals.

Directors and Officers Liability Insurance

The Corporation maintains directors’ and officers’ liability insurance for the officers and directors of the Corporation which provides coverage in the amount of $80 million in each policy year. The deductible amount on the policy is $1 million and the total annual premium for the policy for 2016 is $347,756, which excludes any commissions paid to brokers.

MANDATE OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

1. PURPOSE

The purpose of this mandate is to set out the mandate and responsibilities of the board of directors (the “Board of Directors” or “Board”) of Franco-Nevada Corporation (“Franco-Nevada”). The Board of Directors is committed to fulfilling its statutory mandate to supervise the management of the business and affairs of Franco-Nevada with the highest standards of ethical conduct and in the best interests of Franco-Nevada.

2. COMPOSITION

The Board of Directors shall be composed of between six and 12 individuals, the majority of whom will be Canadian residents. The Board shall be constituted with a majority of individuals who qualify as “independent” directors as defined in National Instrument 58-101 — Disclosure of Corporate Governance Practices.

3. RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

The Board of Directors is responsible for the stewardship of Franco-Nevada and in that regard shall be responsible for:

(a) to the extent feasible, satisfying itself as to the integrity of the Chief Executive Officer and other executive officers and that the Chief Executive Officer and other executive officers create a culture of integrity throughout the organization;

(b) enhancing the reputation, goodwill and image of Franco-Nevada;

(c) adopting a strategic planning process and reviewing, on an annual basis, the strategic plan and business objectives of Franco-Nevada (taking into account, among other things, the opportunities and risks of Franco-Nevada’s business) that are presented by management;

(d) the identification and review of the principal risks of Franco-Nevada’s business and ensuring, with the assistance of the audit and risk committee of the Board (the “Audit and Risk Committee”), the implementation of appropriate risk management systems;

(e) ensuring, with the assistance of the compensation and corporate governance committee of the Board (the “Compensation and Corporate Governance Committee”), the effective functioning of the Board of Directors and its committees in compliance with the corporate governance requirements of applicable laws, and that such compliance is reviewed periodically by the Compensation and Corporate Governance Committee;

(f) assessing the performance of Franco-Nevada’s executive officers, monitoring succession plans and periodically monitoring the compensation levels of executive officers based on the determinations and recommendations made by the Compensation and Corporate Governance Committee;

(g) ensuring internal control and management information systems are in place for Franco-Nevada, with the Audit and Risk Committee assessing the effectiveness of the internal control and management information systems through meetings held with the external auditors, as appropriate, and senior management and a review of reports prepared by senior management;

(h) establishing the Audit and Risk Committee as a standing audit committee of the Board;

(i) developing Franco-Nevada’s approach to corporate governance by establishing the Compensation and Corporate Governance Committee as a standing committee of the Board, including developing a set of corporate governance principles and guidelines that are specifically applicable to Franco-Nevada;

(j) ensuring that Franco-Nevada has in place a communication policy which enables Franco-Nevada to effectively communicate with shareholders, other stakeholders and the public generally, and is reviewed at such intervals as the Board deems appropriate; and

52

(k) establishing measures for receiving feedback from stakeholders.

4. EXPECTATIONS OF DIRECTORS

The Board of Directors has developed a number of specific expectations of directors to promote the discharge by the directors of their responsibilities and to promote the proper conduct of the Board.

(a) Commitment and Attendance. All directors are expected to maintain a high attendance record at meetings of the Board and the committees of which they are members. Attendance by telephone or video conference may be used to facilitate a director’s attendance.

(b) Preparation for Meetings. All directors are expected to review the materials circulated in advance of meetings of the Board and its committees and should arrive prepared to discuss the issues presented. Directors are encouraged to contact the Chair of the Board, the Chief Executive Officer and any other appropriate executive officer(s) of Franco-Nevada to ask questions and discuss agenda items prior to meetings.

(c) Participation in Meetings. Each director is expected to be sufficiently knowledgeable of the business of Franco-Nevada, including its financial statements, and the risks it faces, to ensure active and effective participation in the deliberations of the Board of Directors and of each committee on which he or she serves.

(d) Loyalty and Ethics. In their roles as directors, all directors owe a duty of loyalty to Franco-Nevada. This duty of loyalty mandates that the best interests of Franco-Nevada take precedence over any other interest possessed by a director. Directors are expected to conduct themselves in accordance with Franco-Nevada’s Code of Business Conduct and Ethics.

(e) Other Directorships and Significant Activities. Franco-Nevada values the experience directors bring from other boards on which they serve and other activities in which they participate, but recognizes that those boards and activities also may present demands on a director’s time and availability and may present conflicts or legal issues, including independence issues. No director should serve on the board of a competitor or of a regulatory body with oversight of Franco-Nevada. Each director should, when considering membership on another board or committee, make every effort to ensure that such membership will not impair the director’s time and availability for his or her commitment to Franco-Nevada. Directors should advise the chair of the Compensation and Corporate Governance Committee and the Chief Executive Officer before accepting membership on other public company boards of directors or any audit committee or other significant committee assignment on any other board of directors, or establishing other significant relationships with businesses, institutions, governmental units or regulatory entities, particularly those that may result in significant time commitments or a change in the director’s relationship to Franco-Nevada.

(f) Contact with Management and Employees. All directors should be free to contact the Chief Executive Officer at any time to discuss any aspect of Franco-Nevada’s business. Directors should use their judgement to ensure that any such contact is not disruptive to the operations of Franco-Nevada. The Board of Directors expects that there will be frequent opportunities for directors to meet with the Chief Executive Officer in meetings of the Board of Directors and committees, or in other formal or informal settings.

(g) Speaking on Behalf of Franco-Nevada. It is important that Franco-Nevada speak to employees and outside constituencies with a single voice, and that management serve as the primary spokesperson. As a result, directors should ensure that they adhere to Franco-Nevada’s disclosure policy.

(h) Confidentiality. The proceedings and deliberations of the Board of Directors and its committees are confidential. Each director will maintain the confidentiality of information received in connection with his or her service as a director.

5. MEASURES FOR RECEIVING SHAREHOLDER FEEDBACK

All publicly disseminated materials of Franco-Nevada shall provide for a mechanism for feedback from shareholders. Persons designated to receive such information shall be required to provide a summary of the feedback to the Board of Directors on a semi-annual basis or at such other interval as they see fit. Specific

53

procedures for permitting shareholder feedback and communication with the Board will be prescribed by Franco-Nevada’s disclosure policy approved by the Board.

6. MEETINGS

The Board of Directors will meet not less than four times per year: three meetings to review quarterly results and one prior to the issuance of the annual financial results of Franco-Nevada.

7. INDEPENDENT ADVICE

In discharging its mandate, the Board of Directors shall have the authority to retain and receive advice from, special legal, accounting or other advisors and outside consultants if appropriate.

8. EXPECTATIONS OF MANAGEMENT OF FRANCO-NEVADA

Management shall be required to report to the Board of Directors at the request of the Board on the performance of Franco-Nevada, management’s concerns and any other matter the Board or its Chair may deem appropriate. In addition, the Board expects management to promptly report to the Chair of the Board any significant developments, changes, transactions or proposals respecting Franco-Nevada.

9. ANNUAL EVALUATION

At least annually, the Board of Directors through the Compensation and Corporate Governance Committee shall, in a manner it determines to be appropriate:

(a) conduct a review and evaluation of the performance of the Board and its members, its committees and their members, including the compliance of the Board with this mandate and of the committees with their respective charters; and

(b) review and assess the adequacy of this mandate on an annual basis.
