Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures

As part of Cameco Corporation’s corporate governance practices, under its committee charter, the audit and finance committee is required to pre-approve the audit and non-audit services performed by the external auditors. The audit and finance committee pre-approves the audit and non-audit services up to a maximum specified level of fees. If fees relating to audit and non-audit services are expected to exceed this level or if a type of audit or non-audit service is to be performed that previously has not been pre-approved, then separate pre-approval by Cameco Corporation’s audit and finance committee or audit and finance committee chair, or in the absence of the audit and finance committee chair, the chair of the board, is required. All pre-approvals granted pursuant to the delegated authority must be presented by the member(s) who granted the pre-approvals to the full audit and finance committee at its next meeting. The audit and finance committee has adopted a written policy to provide procedures to implement the foregoing principles. For each of the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, none of Cameco Corporation’s Audit-Related Fees, Tax Fees or All Other Fees made use of the de minimis exception to pre-approval provisions contained in paragraph (c)(7)(i) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X promulgated by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
