How to Vote on the Audiocast
Registered shareholders, non‐registered shareholders who have appointed themselves as a proxyholder, and shareholders who have appointed a third party proxyholder to represent them at the Audiocast, will appear on a list of shareholders prepared by Computershare. To vote in the Audiocast, each registered shareholder or proxyholder will be required to log into the Audiocast using the 15‐digit control number included on their form of proxy or username provided by Computershare (Canada/U.S.: 1‐800‐564‐6253; International: 1 (514) 982‐7555) at https://web.lumiagm.com/227625803 prior to the start of the meeting.

It is important that you are connected to the internet at all times during the meeting in order to vote when balloting commences.
How to Ask Questions on the Audiocast
Registered shareholders and duly appointed proxyholders who log in to the Audiocast will have the opportunity to ask ques�ons. Ques�ons or comments can be submi�ed in the text box (chat feature) of the webcast pla�orm throughout the Audiocast. Ques�ons that relate to a specific mo�on must indicate to which mo�on they relate at the start of the ques�on (e.g., “Directors”) and must be submi�ed prior to vo�ng on the mo�on so they can be addressed at the appropriate �me during the Audiocast. If ques�ons do not indicate to which mo�on they relate or are received a�er vo�ng on the relevant mo�on, they will be addressed a�er the formal business of the Mee�ng is concluded. Wri�en ques�ons or comments submi�ed through the text box of the webcast pla�orm will be read or summarized by a representa�ve of Badger, a�er which the Chair will respond or direct the ques�on to the appropriate person to respond. If several ques�ons relate to the same or a very similar topic, Badger may choose to

group such ques�ons and indicate that similar ques�ons were received. A recording of the Audiocast with real �me cap�oning for the hearing impaired, including the general ques�on and answer session, will be made available on Badger’s website.
These procedures may vary from time to time depending on logistics and with a view to following best governance practices. A representative of Badger will provide an overview of these procedures before the Meeting is called to order.
Appointment of Proxies
Shareholders who wish to appoint a third party proxyholder to represent them at the online meeting must submit their proxy or voting instruction form prior to registering their proxyholder. Registering a proxyholder is an additional step once you have submitted your proxy or voting instruction form. Failure to register the proxyholder will result in the proxyholder not receiving a username to participate in the meeting. To register a proxyholder, shareholders must visit http://www.computershare.com/Badger by 1:30 p.m. (Mountain Time) on May 3, 2021 and provide Computershare with their proxyholder’s contact information, so that Computershare may provide the proxyholder with a username via email. Without a username, proxyholders will not be able to vote at the meeting.
A proxy can be submitted to Computershare either in person, or by mail or courier, to 100 University Avenue, 8[th] Floor, Toronto, Ontario, M5J 2Y1, or via the internet at www.investorvote.com. The proxy must be deposited with Computershare by no later than 1:30 p.m. (Mountain Time) on May 3, 2021, or if the meeting is adjourned or postponed, not less than 48 hours, excluding Saturdays, Sundays and statutory holidays, before the commencement of such adjourned or postponed meeting. If a shareholder who has submitted a proxy attends the meeting via the Audiocast and has accepted the terms and conditions when entering the meeting online, any votes cast by such shareholder on a ballot will be counted and the submitted proxy will be disregarded .
