<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify"><I>All statements, other than statements of historical
fact, contained or incorporated by reference in or made in this presentation, including but not limited to any information as to the future
performance of Kinross, constitute &ldquo;forward looking statements&rdquo; within the meaning of applicable securities laws, including
the provisions of the Securities Act (Ontario) and the provisions for &ldquo;safe harbor&rdquo; under the United States Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and are based on expectations, estimates and projections as of the date of this presentation. Forward-looking
statements contained in this presentation include, without limitation, statements with respect to guidance for production and project
development. Forward-looking statements are necessarily based upon a number of estimates and assumptions that, while considered reasonable
by Kinross as of the date of such statements, are inherently subject to significant business, economic, legislative and competitive risks
and uncertainties and contingencies. Many of these risks and uncertainties and contingencies can affect, and could cause, Kinross&rsquo;
actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in any forward looking statements made by, or on behalf of, Kinross.
Such risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to: operational or technical difficulties in connection with development, mining
or processing activities; the volatility of prices of gold and silver; uncertainty of mineral reserve and mineral resource estimates;
the speculative nature of gold exploration and development including, but not limited to, the risks of obtaining necessary licenses and
permits; foreign exchange rate fluctuations; and risks associated with operating in foreign jurisdictions, including government relations
risks. There can be no assurance that forward looking statements will prove to be accurate, as actual results and future events could
differ materially from those anticipated in such statements. All of the forward looking statements made in this presentation are qualified
by these cautionary statements, and those made in our filings with the securities regulators of Canada and the U.S., including but not
limited to those cautionary statements made in the &ldquo;Risk Factors&rdquo; section of our most recently filed Annual Information Form,
the &ldquo;Risk Analysis&rdquo; section of our FYE 2021 Management&rsquo;s Discussion and Analysis, and the &ldquo;Cautionary Statement
on Forward-Looking Information&rdquo; in our news release dated July 27, 2022, to which readers are referred and which are incorporated
by reference in this presentation, all of which qualify any and all forward-looking statements made in this presentation. These factors
are not intended to represent a complete list of the factors that could affect Kinross. Kinross disclaims any intention or obligation
to update or revise any forward-looking statements or to explain any material difference between subsequent actual events and such forward-looking
statements, except to the extent required by applicable law.</I></P>
