CODE OF CONDUCT AND ETHICS
Cameco

Dear Employees,
At Cameco, we have built a strong reputation for maintaining the highest standards of ethical behaviour. This is what has helped the company grow into the global business it is today, and is essential as we carry out our mission to bring the multiple benefits of nuclear energy to the world.
As we continue to grow our business, we will face ethical choices. Cameco’s Code of Conduct and Ethics is your guide on how we uphold our value of integrity. Integrity is hard earned and easily lost, and it’s something we all have to work hard to protect.
The code applies to all employees, officers and board directors of Cameco and its subsidiaries, setting a clear standard of what we expect you to follow in all of your work-related activities. Because not every situation is covered in the code, it is important that we follow the spirit of the document, not just the words. When in doubt, ask your manager or the contacts listed on the back page for guidance.
If you know of, or suspect, any violations of this code, I expect you to bring your concerns to your supervisor or local HR representative. If you prefer, you can report concerns anonymously through the Ethics Hotline, either online or at the toll-free numbers listed in the code. You can expect the company to investigate the matter and protect you from any form of retaliation when you report a concern honestly and in good faith.
Thank you for your continued dedication to Cameco and your commitment to making a difference by upholding the standards set forth in our code. Our dedication to integrity allows us to take pride in our work and in our reputation as a good corporate citizen.
TIM GITZEL PRESIDENT AND CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER CAMECO CORPORATION
“Our dedication to integrity allows us to take pride in our work and in our reputation as a good corporate citizen.”

We each must follow this Code of Conduct and Ethics. “We” means employees, officers and board directors of Cameco and its subsidiaries.
This code is important. There are serious consequences if you don’t follow the code.
Our Responsibilities
We use this code to guide us in how to properly conduct ourselves and act ethically in connection with our work at Cameco
We have this code to help us understand the kinds of activities that are right and we are encouraged to do, and the kinds of activities that are wrong and not allowed.
Don’t assume questionable activities are OK just because they haven’t been mentioned in this code. Ask yourself the following questions to decide if an activity is right or wrong.
Does it seem right?
Is it fair?
Is it legal?
Does it match up with Cameco’s Value Statements?
Would I want other people to know I did it?
Would I feel OK if I read about it in the newspaper?
Would other people at Cameco feel OK if they read about it in the newspaper?
Ask your supervisor or manager for advice if you’re still in doubt about a questionable activity after asking yourself these questions.
Our chief corporate officer and our corporate secretary maintain this code
The chief corporate officer and the corporate secretary are responsible for putting the code into practice throughout the company and keeping it up-to-date.

3
They report to our board of directors’ nominating, corporate governance and risk committee on matters related to board directors. They report to our board’s audit and finance committee on matters related to employees.
The audit and finance committee recommends any changes to the code to Cameco’s board of directors. The board must approve them before they can be made and put into practice.
You contribute to the ethical culture of Cameco when you report violations of this code. You’re protected from any form of retaliation when you report your concerns honestly.
If you know of, or suspect, any violations of this code, you should first consider speaking to your supervisor or manager. You may also report any violation or ask any questions about the code by contacting your local or corporate human resources department, the internal audit department, the corporate legal department or the corporate secretary.
We also have an Ethics Hotline that is available 24/7 and operated by an external company. You can report any violations of this code anonymously through the Ethics Hotline.
You can reach the Ethics Hotline online, in English, French, German or Russian, at www.clearviewconnects.com
or by phone toll free in Canada and the US at 1-866-590-4135 in Australia at 1-800-337-354 and by landline in Kazakhstan at 8-800-333-6613

Our Conduct
under the Law
We obey all applicable laws, rules and regulations
We follow the applicable laws, rules and regulations in the countries where we work and do business. The fact that unethical business practices may be common in some countries doesn’t justify them.
Breaking the law is never OK even if your intent is for the good of the company. Also, not knowing the law is no excuse for breaking it.
Familiarize yourself with, and follow, all the laws, rules and regulations that apply to your job. Be alert to unethical practices and make sure you act ethically.
Check with your supervisor or the corporate legal department if you don’t know the laws, rules and regulations that apply to your job. Also check our International Business Conduct Program for more information.
We do not take part in insider trading
Insider trading happens when someone uses confidential information to make a decision about buying or selling shares or other financial securities.
You’re guilty of insider trading if you use confidential information about Cameco or any other company to help you or someone else decide when to buy or sell Cameco’s or the other company’s shares or financial securities. This is against our rules and, in most cases, is against the law.
Check our Securities Trading and Reporting Standard for more information.
Check with the corporate secretary or chief financial officer if you’re unsure about the rules before you trade any of Cameco’s shares or financial securities.
Bribes and kickbacks are common examples of unethical business practices.
It’s not ethical to offer money or any type of reward to a government official directly or indirectly in order to obtain or retain an improper advantage. If you take part in these kinds of practices or any other unethical business practices, you not only violate our Code of Conduct and Ethics but you also damage our reputation and put yourself, our company and our officers at risk of fines, charges and possibly jail.

5
Also, special rules apply to employees and board directors considered to be “reporting insiders” under securities laws. If you’re a reporting insider, you must get the corporate secretary’s approval before buying or selling Cameco’s shares or exercising stock options. The corporate secretary informs you if you’re a reporting insider.
?
Question:
I just found out about something that happened in the company that makes me want to trade some of my Cameco shares. Can I go ahead and trade my shares?
Answer:
You can’t buy or sell the shares unless the general public also has access to the same information that you just learned. The corporate secretary announces black-out periods so we know when we can’t buy or sell Cameco shares. Even if there is no black-out, you can’t buy or sell shares using important confidential information if the general public doesn’t also have access to the same information. If in doubt, check with the corporate secretary before you buy or sell shares.
Senior Vice-President, Chief Legal Officer and Corporate Secretary, Sean Quinn

We lobby governments only according to their rules
Cameco lobbies governments to potentially influence the outcome of government policies and regulations that affect our business and industry.
Governments set rules on lobbying and we need to make sure we know and follow them before contacting any government officials for the purposes of lobbying.
You need permission from the corporate legal department and you need to clearly understand the rules before lobbying any government official. The corporate legal department maintains a list of everyone in the company who is lobbying and gives them the rules to follow.
We obey all import and export regulations
We only import and export uranium products and nuclear technologies according to applicable government regulations.
We recognize uranium products and nuclear technologies have the potential to be misused and so we make sure we export only to people, organizations and countries who will use them for peaceful purposes. Government regulations require us to disclose how the uranium products and nuclear technology will be used before we’re allowed to export them.
If you’re involved in importing or exporting, make sure you follow all regulatory requirements and have all

7
the necessary licences and permits in place. Check our Nuclear Technology Export and Import Controls Compliance Program for more information regarding importing or exporting nuclear technology. If you plan to share any nuclear technology with someone outside of Cameco and are unsure of the rules, make sure you first discuss this with a member of the technical committee defined in the Nuclear Technology Export and Import Controls Compliance Program.
Check with your supervisor or the corporate legal department if you need guidance on any aspect of import and export regulations.
We do not make loans or guarantees to board directors or officers of Cameco
As a company, we do not loan money, extend credit or guarantee personal financial obligations of board directors or officers of the company and their families.
?
Question:
I contact a government regulator frequently to provide required reports and to ask questions about regulations. Is this lobbying?
Answer:
No. Supplying requested information and asking questions is not lobbying. You would be lobbying, however, if you made a suggestion about how to amend a regulation. Always get permission from the corporate legal department before lobbying and make sure you understand the rules.

Our Conduct
within Cameco
We avoid actual, potential or perceived conflicts of interest
A conflict of interest happens when our relationships, actions or interests outside of work interfere, might interfere, or even appear to interfere with our duties or Cameco’s business interests.
Avoid conflicts of interest or the appearance of conflict.
Don’t:
• Take part in outside business transactions, or have a financial or personal interest that may interfere with your duties to Cameco.
• Hold shares in companies that are involved in the nuclear power fuel cycle if it is likely that you would be part of an acquisition project team or if you could have influence over key acquisition decisions.
• Take part in outside work or business or be a member of a group or sit on a company’s board that is in competition with (or has opposing interests to) Cameco or interferes with your performance at Cameco.
• Have a family member report to you, either directly or indirectly, through your reporting line.
• Take part in, or influence, any financial, administrative or human resources processes concerning your family members.
• Give preferential treatment to relatives or friends or to organizations in which your relatives or friends have a financial or other interest.
For employees in Canada, check our Conflicts of Interest Between Employed Family Members Procedure for more information about the rules involving family members at work.

9
?
Question:
What are some examples of the kinds of business transactions or financial or personal interests that may put me in a conflict of interest situation?
Answer:
Generally, you have a conflict of interest when you put yourself in a situation where you may not be acting in Cameco’s best interests. For example, you may have a conflict if:
• You award a contract to a private company in which you are a shareholder.
• You or your family have a significant interest in a business that deals with Cameco.
• You influenced a decision that Cameco made that improves the value of property you own or have an interest in, such as shares in junior uranium companies.
• You realized financial gains or savings from the purchase or sale of stocks, bonds, shares or other assets using information which isn’t generally available to the public.
?
Question:
Outside my Cameco work time, I work for another company. Is this a conflict of interest?
Answer:
It’s not a conflict of interest unless:
• The other company is a competitor of Cameco.
• The other company has opposing interests to Cameco.
• The other job interferes with your duties at Cameco.

10
We declare whether we have any conflicts of interest
We each complete a declaration form when we start our jobs or board appointments at Cameco. On the form you declare whether you have any actual, potential or perceived conflicts of interest. The corporate secretary, or designate, reviews the completed forms.
You also need to complete a new form if you are newly promoted into job band 10 or above, or into supply chain management, human resources, internal audit, finance/treasury/ tax, business technology services, marketing, corporate development, legal or the executive offices. Anyone in these jobs also completes and submits a new form annually. The form will be provided to you automatically.
If you’re an employee in Canada and have a conflict of interest concerning a family member you also need to complete another form where you state your plan for dealing with the conflict. This is explained in the declaration form. Check our Conflicts of Interest Between Employed Family Members Procedure for more information.
All members of the pension investment committee, board directors or employees operating or administering our pension plans must disclose any kind of personal, financial or other interests that would conflict with their duties concerning the plan. Actual, potential or perceived conflicts must be declared as they would for any other type of conflict described in this code.
Any of us having an actual, potential or perceived conflict must not take part in discussions and decision-making related to the conflict unless allowed by the applicable decision-makers.
You have violated this code and are subject to discipline or even dismissal if you don’t disclose any conflicting interests you may have.
?
Question:
What happens if my conflict of interest is not acceptable to Cameco?
Answer:
Depending on the conflict, you may have to take one or more of the following actions:
• Give back any benefit you received.
• Get rid of the outside interest.
• Put applicable assets in a frozen or blind trust.
• Accept a transfer to a job where the conflict wouldn’t exist.
• Exclude yourself from any human resources, administrative or financial processes concerning family members at Cameco.
• Resign from your job or board appointment.

11
?
Question:
What happens after I declare that I have (or might have) a conflict of interest?
Answer:
A committee reviews your conflict and decides whether it’s acceptable.
If you’re a board director
• The board’s nominating, corporate governance and risk committee reviews your conflict and recommends to the board whether it’s acceptable. The board makes the final decision. You don’t take part in the discussions or decision about your own conflict.
If you’re an officer, senior vice-president or vice-president
• The board’s audit and finance committee reviews and recommends to the board whether your conflict is acceptable. The board makes the final decision.
If you’re in any other type of job
• Management’s conduct and ethics committee reviews your conflict and decides what must be done to deal with the conflict.
Once a decision is made about your declared conflict, you are notified in writing.
Also, if you are an officer or board director, any transactions between you and Cameco (other than routine transactions arising in the ordinary course of business and consistent with past practice) must be approved by the board of directors on the recommendation of the audit and finance committee or the nominating, corporate governance and risk committee.

12
We protect confidential information about the company, employees, contractors, customers, partners, clients and suppliers
As part of our work, we may learn confidential information about our company and people. We always maintain the confidentiality of this information except when we have permission to disclose it or are required to disclose it by law.
Make sure you maintain confidentiality. Never:
Share any confidential information that you know about, due to working at Cameco, with anyone from outside of the company.
Make statements to the media in Cameco’s name without permission.
Allow an unauthorized person access to confidential information.
Share information from an employee’s personnel file. Employee files are available only to appropriate employees on a “need-to-know” basis and in compliance with applicable laws.
Use any confidential information you receive due to working at Cameco for your own personal benefit or the benefit of your friends or family members.
As part of our work we may receive confidential information about other companies. Be aware that you might have obligations regarding this confidential information. For example, there may be a confidentiality agreement that restricts what we can do with the information we
receive. Make sure you check with the corporate legal department about what information can be disclosed and to whom it can be disclosed inside and outside of Cameco.
Check our Confidentiality Policy for more information.
If you work in Canada, and handle confidential information, you also need to know about our Privacy and Protection of Personal Information Policy.

Contact the corporate records management group or corporate legal department if you’re unsure about what documents to retain.
We do not take unfair advantage of opportunities through our jobs
We owe a duty to Cameco to put its interests ahead of our own when opportunities arise that we have discovered or created through our jobs at Cameco.
You may not use company property, information, or any influence you have because of your job for your own personal gain or to compete with the company.
Ideas and inventions belong to the company when you came up with them as part of your normal duties. Check with the corporate secretary if you’re unclear whether your idea or invention belongs to you or the company.

15
We take action to identify and prevent fraud
Fraud happens when someone acts dishonestly to make money illegally or to get an unfair advantage. Examples include stealing, forgery, identity theft, misuse of assets, taking kickbacks and making false reports.
We don’t tolerate any type or degree of fraud at Cameco. We are each responsible for identifying and preventing fraud.
Report any suspected fraud to your supervisor or manager. If this creates a conflict for you, contact the internal audit department or you can report your suspicion anonymously through
the Ethics Hotline. You’re protected from any form of punishment or retaliation when you honestly report suspected cases of fraud.
Check our Anti-Fraud Program for more information.
We protect and properly use Cameco’s property

Get permission from your supervisor or manager before using company property for anything other than official company business.

16
We use our computer systems, email and Internet appropriately
Our computer systems, email and Internet are for business use. Some personal use is OK as long as it’s outside of business hours and does not interfere with company business.
The information you view and share – whether for business or personal use – must be appropriate, respectful and according to our rules.
Check our Information Security Program for more information.
Safety is our top priority
We are all accountable for safety. No job is so important that we can’t take the time to do it safely. We have safe and healthy workplaces and continually look for ways to improve.
Check our Safety, Health, Environment and Quality Policy for the principles we follow on workplace safety and health.
We expect others we work with, including consultants, agents, contractors and suppliers to respect and adhere to our health and safety requirements.
Report any actual or potential safety or health risks you discover at work to your supervisor, manager or senior management. You can also report your concerns through the Ethics Hotline if you’re uncomfortable speaking to someone in the company directly or if you wish to report your concerns anonymously.
Question:
What should I do if I think someone might be acting fraudulently but I can’t prove it?
Answer:
You should report the situation even if you can’t prove it. An investigation by the internal audit department will
then determine if it is a case of fraud. You are protected from any form of punishment when you report your concern honestly.
Report the situation to your supervisor or manager, your local or corporate human resources department, the internal audit department or anonymously through the Ethics Hotline.

17 Question: ? I think one of the practices at my workplace is unsafe but my supervisor and manager disagree. I really think this is an accident waiting to happen but I’ve already reported it so should I just forget about it? Answer: No, you shouldn’t forget about it because someone could get hurt and we are all accountable for safety. You can report it to any of the following groups: your local safety department; workplace occupational, health and safety committee; divisional or corporate SHEQ group; corporate SHEQ audit group; local or corporate human resources department; or the corporate legal department. If this makes you uncomfortable then you can report your concerns anonymously through the Ethics Hotline. There will be no retaliation for reporting your honest concerns, regardless of the outcome.

Answer: You should go ahead and take your complaint forward, in accordance with our Respectful Workplace Program, to your supervisor’s manager, your local or corporate human resources department, union representative (if applicable), site nurse, or other person of authority in the company.

Inaccurate financial reports can bring stiff penalties under securities laws. Under securities laws, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer have to pay the company back for compensation they’ve received if we’ve had to restate our financial statements because of misconduct that resulted in not complying with a financial reporting requirement.

?
Question:
A supplier I deal with invited me and my husband to a concert. Can I accept the invitation?
Answer:
You can accept the invitation if the supplier normally invites clients and their spouses to social events in appreciation of their business and not as a way to obtain business, and if the supplier attends the concert with you.
?
Question:
A contractor in another country that we are thinking of using has invited me to tour his facility at his company’s expense. Is this OK?
Answer:
This is OK if it’s important to see how the company operates in order to make a decision about using the company, if the travel costs are reasonable, and if your supervisor gives you permission to go on the trip.

• Gifts of pens, hats, shirts, mugs and similar items with a company’s logo.

• Invitations to social, cultural or sporting events if the cost is reasonable, your host will be present and your attendance serves a customary business purpose.
• Invitations to join your host at sports events, or trips to golf or fish or similar events and trips that are customary within the industry for people in jobs like yours and where they promote good working relationships.

I’m hosting a social gathering on behalf of Cameco for some foreign business people we are doing business with. How much can I spend and is it OK if their spouses also attend?
Answer:
The amount you spend shouldn’t be excessive for the circumstances. Your rank and seniority and that of the people being entertained determine the type and nature of the entertainment you provide.
Spouses could be included depending on the circumstances. For example, if they travelled with their spouses on the business trip and the spouses of any Cameco people are also in attendance then it may be acceptable.
Check our International Business Conduct Program and check with the corporate legal department for guidance before finalizing your arrangements.
Senior Vice-President and Chief Corporate Officer, Alice Wong

We follow the competition laws of the countries where we operate
We never enter into arrangements that unlawfully restrict our ability to compete with other businesses or restrict other businesses from competing freely with us.
Avoid contact with competitors’ employees when it appears you may be collaborating with them on the prices we charge for products or on any other aspects of our relationships
with suppliers or customers that would restrict competition. This is against our rules and could lead to illegal price-fixing agreements.
Check our Competition Law Compliance Program for more information.

Our Administration
of this Code
We commit to annually reviewing this code
Each of us reads the code and signs a declaration form when we begin our jobs or board appointments at Cameco. Any updates are communicated in the most recent version of the code, made available throughout the organization every December.
If you’re in job band 10 or above, or you work in supply chain management, human resources, internal audit, finance/treasury/tax, business technology services, marketing, corporate development, legal, or the executive offices, you must also sign a new declaration form annually. At any time during the year, if you move into any of these positions, you will complete a new declaration form.
Report any actual, potential or perceived conflict you have on this form and sign it to show that you read the code, understand it and agree to follow it. If you work in Canada, also complete the personal information pledge and conflicts of interest between employed family members portions of the form.
Promptly complete and submit a new declaration form to internal audit at any time an actual, potential or perceived conflict of interest arises that you haven’t already declared.
We understand there are consequences for violating this code or management documents
You could be reprimanded, demoted, suspended or even dismissed if you don’t
follow the code. The consequences depend on how severely the code is violated. Not following a management document referred to in this code will be treated as a violation of this code.
The corporate secretary; vice-president, human resources; director, legal services, governance; and director, internal audit and corporate ethics make up Cameco’s conduct and ethics committee. They have the authority to investigate and decide if the code has been violated. They perform this responsibility under the direction of our board’s audit and finance committee. When a violation concerns a director, the investigation is conducted under the guidance of our board’s nominating, corporate governance and risk committee.
We report violations of this code or management documents
Report any concerns about the code or management documents not being followed to your supervisor, manager, local or corporate human resources department, the internal audit department, the corporate legal department or the corporate secretary.
If you prefer, you can report your concerns anonymously through our Ethics Hotline, which is available 24/7 and operated by an external company. The Ethics Hotline can be reached online, in English, French, German or Russian, at www.clearviewconnects.com, or by phone toll free in Canada and the US at 1-866-590-4135, in Australia at 1-800-337-354, and by landline in Kazakhstan at 8-800-333-6613.

33
Promptly complete and submit a new declaration form to internal audit at any time a new actual, potential or perceived conflict of interest arises.

34
Refusing to cooperate in an investigation is a violation of this code.
You are protected from any form of retaliation or punishment when you report a concern honestly and with the right intentions. Your supervisor, manager or anyone else would face serious consequences if they tried to punish you in any way for reporting a concern.
If you believe you are being punished in some way for reporting a concern, tell your supervisor or manager, someone in the local or corporate human resources department, the internal audit department, the corporate legal department, the corporate secretary or the Ethics Hotline, whichever would be appropriate or most comfortable for you.
The corporate secretary keeps a log of reports and complaints
The corporate secretary keeps a log of all accounting matter concerns or Ethics Hotline reports received. Information
recorded includes the nature of the concern, the date it was received and acknowledged, progress on the investigation, and the outcome. The log and copies of the concerns received are kept for at least seven years.
Waivers of this code require approval before they can proceed
Waivers for officers or board directors can only be made by the board of directors on the recommendation of either the audit and finance committee or the nominating, corporate governance and risk committee, whichever is applicable. Waivers will be promptly disclosed as required by applicable securities rules and regulations.
Waivers for other employees can only be made by the conduct and ethics committee.
