named below has, to the Company&#146;s knowledge, sole voting and investment power with respect to the voting shares beneficially owned by them. The calculation of the percentage of outstanding shares is based on 10,242,911 Class&nbsp;A voting
shares and 7,717,970 Class B multiple voting shares outstanding on July&nbsp;31, 2016, adjusted, where appropriate, for shares of stock beneficially owned but not yet issued. </P>

which the individual or entity has the right to acquire beneficial ownership within 60 days through the exercise of any warrant, stock option or other right. The inclusion in this Circular of such voting shares, however, does not constitute an
admission that the named individual is a direct or indirect beneficial owner of such voting shares. The voting shares that a person has the right to acquire within 60 days of July&nbsp;31, 2016 are deemed outstanding for the purpose of calculating
the percentage ownership of such person, but are not deemed outstanding for the purposes of calculating the percentage owned by any other person listed. </P>

adopted by the Board of Directors. The purpose of the compensation committee is to recommend to the Board of Directors executive compensation, including base salaries, bonuses and long-term incentive awards for the Chief Executive Officer and
certain other executive officers of the Company. The compensation committee also establishes criteria for goals and objectives for variable compensation, evaluates the performance of the Chief Executive Officer on an annual basis and provides
recommendations to the Board of Directors regarding Chief Executive Officer and senior management succession plans. Certain decisions regarding compensation of certain executive officers are reviewed by the compensation committee. During fiscal year
2016, the compensation committee held five meetings and all members of the compensation committee attended these meetings during that period, except for one member who attended 80% of the meetings. During fiscal year 2016, the compensation committee
was comprised of Shirley A. Dawe (Chair), Frank Di Tomaso and Guthrie J. Stewart (until December&nbsp;31, 2015). Each member of the compensation committee is an independent (as defined by the NYSE MKT listing standards), non-employee director of the
Company. On May&nbsp;11, 2016, Louis L. Roquet was appointed to the compensation committee following the departure of Guthrie J. Stewart. Mr.&nbsp;Roquet is also an independent, non-employee director of the Company. A copy of the compensation
committee charter is available on the Company&#146;s website at <U>www.birksgroup.com</U>. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The compensation committee reviews whether
both the compensation and benefits programs provided for the executive officers is generally competitive with similar organizations within the luxury jewelry and retail industry. In determining the compensation of certain of the Company&#146;s
executive officers, the committee takes into account all factors that it considers relevant, including business conditions in general and the Company&#146;s performance during the year in light of such conditions, the market compensation for
executives of similar background and experience, and the performance of the specific executive officer under consideration and the business area of the Company for which such executive officer is responsible. Regarding the Chief Executive
Officer&#146;s compensation, the compensation committee considers many of the same factors looked at for the other executive officers. Some of the key company performance measures are sales, gross profit, earnings before tax, cash flow, and other
key strategic and financial objectives as outlined in the Company&#146;s profit and strategic plans. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The compensation committee believes
that the cash bonus portion of the executive officers&#146; compensation, or the variable compensation component, should vary according to the executive officer&#146;s level of responsibility, their capacity to add shareholder value and individual
performance and be based upon the Company&#146;s overall financial performance. The compensation committee believes that this portion of the executive officer&#146;s compensation is critical in order to ensure that such executive officer&#146;s
interests are aligned with the interests of the Company&#146;s shareholders. The bonus targets for executive officers ranges from 30% to 85% of their respective annual base salary. The payout is based on the achievement of pre-set financial and
leadership goals (quantitative and qualitative) once the pre-set minimum threshold related to annual planned adjusted earnings before interest and taxes has been met. From fiscal year </P>

results. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The performance objectives and criteria used for compensation purposes are generally linked to the Company&#146;s business plan

Officer&#146;s performance objectives and metrics for the fiscal year. At the end of the fiscal year, the committee leads the Board in an annual assessment of the Chief Executive Officer&#146;s performance relative to the pre-determined performance
objectives and metrics. This information is used by the compensation committee in assessing the Chief Executive Officer&#146;s total compensation review which takes place in September. </P>

subsidiaries) may from time-to-time be granted various types of compensation awards. The LTIP provides for the grant of incentive stock options that qualify under Section&nbsp;422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and non-statutory
options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock awards, restricted stock units and performance unit or share awards, as such terms are defined in the LTIP. A total of 900,000 of the Company&#146;s Class&nbsp;A voting shares are reserved for
issuance under the LTIP. In no event can the Company issue Class&nbsp;A voting shares or awards requiring the Company to issue Class&nbsp;A voting shares under the LTIP, if such issuance, when combined with the Class&nbsp;A voting shares issuable
under any of the Company&#146;s other equity incentive award plans and all other Class&nbsp;A voting shares issuable under the LTIP would exceed 1,304,025 Class&nbsp;A voting shares, unless the issuance of such shares or awards in excess of this
limit is approved by the shareholders. However, this limit does not restrict the Company&#146;s ability to issue awards under the LTIP that are payable other than in shares, including cash-settlement stock appreciation rights. As of July&nbsp;31,
2016, the only awards outstanding under the LTIP were 131,990 cash-based stock </P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">During the fiscal year ended March&nbsp;30, 2013, the Board of Directors approved the long-term cash incentive plans (&#147;LTCIPs&#148;) for
the Chief Executive Officer and Senior Executive members. The intention of the LTCIPs is to reward the Chief Executive Officer and other members of senior management based on our performance over three-year cycles, the first of which began with the
fiscal year 2013 through fiscal year 2015 period. The approval of a new three-year cycle is at the discretion of the Board of Directors on recommendation of the compensation committee. The payouts under the LTCIPs will be based on the Company&#146;s
earnings before tax (&#147;EBT&#148;) performance with the payout level earned during the three-year period either increasing or decreasing based on our EBT performance levels versus thresholds established in each of the three years of the
three-year cycle and afterwards, if the LTCIPs are continued. The payout will be 1/3 of the LTCIPs value earned at the end of the first three year cycle and 1/3 of the LTCIPs value for every year thereafter, subject to the Chief Executive Officer
and participating executives continued employment and subject to the payment not causing any default on the Company&#146;s credit facilities. The LTCIPs payouts will continue to rise or fall based on the Company&#146;s performance each year. The
total LTCIPs pool is only created to compensate if EBT is above a certain growth rate and the payout is capped so that the total three-year costs of the programs combined does not exceed 10% of our total earnings before taxes for the three-year
period. As of March&nbsp;28, 2015, no amounts were earned under the LTCIP and no new three-year cycles have been approved by the Board of Directors. A new long-term cash incentive plan was approved by the Company&#146;s Board of Directors to replace
this plan in April 2015 as described below. Consequently, the LTCIPs are no longer applicable to the Chief Executive Officer or any other Senior Executive. </P>

intent of the CEO LTCIP is to reward the Chief Executive Officer based on the Company&#146;s performance over three-year cycles, the first of which begins with fiscal 2016 through fiscal 2018. The approval of the three-year cycles is at the
discretion of the Board of Directors on recommendation of the Compensation Committee. The CEO LTCIP is structured to fund a pool of dollars based on the successful achievement of earnings before tax (&#147;EBT&#148;) and the level of achievement of
three key metrics that can modify the amount achieved based on the EBT over three one-year periods. The amount of money funded each year, if earned, is added together at the end of the three-year cycle (with each year comprising 1/3 of the total
payout opportunity). Fifty percent (50%)&nbsp;of the final value of the pool following completion of the three year cycle (early fiscal year 2019) is payable at the end of the three year cycle, with the remaining 50% payable one year thereafter
(early fiscal year 2020) subject to the Chief Executive Officer remaining employed at the time of payout and the payout not causing any default under the Company&#146;s senior secured credit facilities. As of March&nbsp;26, 2016, no amounts were

Montrovest an annual retainer fee of &#128;140,000 (equivalent to approximately $152,000 in U.S. dollars) in exchange for services related to the raising of capital for international expansion projects and such other services relating to
merchandising and/or marketing of the Company&#146;s products as the Company may request. The original term of the agreement was until June&nbsp;8, 2012 and the agreement was automatically extended for successive terms of one year as neither party
gave a 60 days notice of its intention not to renew. The yearly renewal of the agreement was subject to the review and approval of the Company&#146;s corporate governance and nominating committee and the Board of Directors in accordance with the
Company&#146;s Code of Conduct relating to related party transactions. In April 2015, the agreement was renewed for an additional one year period ending June&nbsp;8, 2016 with the approval of the Company&#146;s Board of Directors. Mr.&nbsp;Davide
Barberis Canonico, a Company director, is a director of the Supervisory Board of Directors of Montrovest and Mr.&nbsp;Carlo Coda-Nunziante, the Company&#146;s Vice President, Strategy was a Managing Director of Montrovest until June&nbsp;30, 2012.

convertible into convertible debentures or Class&nbsp;A voting shares, bore interest at an annual rate of 16%, net of any withholding taxes representing an effective interest rate of approximately 17.8%. If converted into convertible debentures or
Class&nbsp;A voting shares, a fee of 7% of the outstanding principal amount of the cash advance would have been paid to Montrovest. In June 2011, the cash advance agreements were amended and restated reducing the annual interest rate to 11%, net of
any withholding taxes, representing an effective interest rate of approximately 12.2%, and removing the requirement to pay a 7% fee to Montrovest upon conversion into convertible debentures or Class&nbsp;A voting shares and eliminating the
convertibility of the cash advance into a convertible debenture or Class&nbsp;A voting shares in the event of a private placement. In addition, the amended and restated cash advance agreements required a one-time payment of an amendment fee of
$75,000 in fiscal year 2012. These cash advances and any interest thereon are subordinated to the indebtedness of the Company&#146;s existing senior credit facilities and secured term loans and are repayable upon demand by Montrovest subject to the
conditions provided in the Company&#146;s senior credit facilities. In August 2012, the Company repaid $3.5&nbsp;million of these cash advances from the proceeds of a rights offering. </P>

restrictions and conditions which may be based on achievement of pre-established performance goals and objectives as determined by the Administrator. The Administrator also sets a date upon which it is determined whether the vesting conditions with
respect to restricted share units have been met which then establishes the number of restricted shares units that become vested; such date cannot fall outside the period that ends on December&nbsp;31 of the year that is three (3)&nbsp;years after

determined based on the Market Value of the shares on the settlement date multiplied by the number of vested restricted share units that the participant wishes to settle in cash. For a share settlement, the number of shares to be issued from
treasury upon settlement of restricted share units is based on the number of shares equal to the number of vested restricted share units which the participant wishes to settle. </P>

to receive shares or cash (or a combination thereof), as determined by the Administrator, equal to the value of a share at a future time whose grant or vesting is in whole or in part conditioned on the attainment of specific performance goals. The
Administrator shall set performance criteria for a performance period and will determine the value and/or number of each performance share unit that will be paid to the participant. Following the performance period, the participant shall be entitled

criteria and/or other vesting conditions for the awards and/or the date on which any award expires or the restriction period, performance period, the performance criteria and/or other vesting conditions for the awards. </P>
