Exhibit 99.2

 

 

 

NOTICE REGARDING USE OF NOTICE-AND-ACCESS PROCEDURES
FOR ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING MATERIALS

 

You are receiving this notification as Seabridge Gold Inc. (the “Company”) has decided to use the notice-and-access procedures for the delivery of meeting materials to its shareholders in respect of its annual general meeting of shareholders to be held on June 26, 2019 (the “Meeting”).

 

Under notice-and-access, instead of receiving paper copies of the Company’s management proxy circular for the Meeting (the “Proxy Circular”), shareholders are receiving this notice with information on how they may access the Proxy Circular electronically. However, together with this notice, shareholders as of May 7th, 2019, the record date of the Meeting, continue to receive a Notice of Meeting and a proxy or voting instruction form, as applicable, enabling them to vote at the Meeting. The use of this alternative means of delivery is more environmentally friendly as it will help reduce paper use and it will also reduce the Company’s printing and mailing costs in respect of the Meeting.
