3 Proxies
3.1 This Circular is furnished in connection with the solicitation, by or on behalf of the management of the Company, of proxies to be used at the Meeting or at any adjournment thereof. It is expected that the solicitation will be primarily by mail, but proxies may also be solicited personally, by advertisement or by telephone, by directors, officers or employees of the Company without special compensation, or by the Company's transfer agent, Computershare (as defined herein). The cost of solicitation will be borne by the Company at a nominal cost.
3.2 Each shareholder entitled to attend and vote at the Meeting has the right to appoint a proxy (or proxies) to represent them and exercise all or any of their rights to attend, speak and vote at the Meeting or at any adjournment thereof. A shareholder can appoint more than one proxy in relation to the Meeting, provided that each proxy is appointed to exercise the rights attached to a different share(s) held by the shareholder. Further details are set out in the notes to the proxy form. A proxy form which may be used to make this appointment and give proxy instructions accompanies this Circular. You can only appoint a proxy using the procedures set out in these notes and the notes to the proxy form. A proxy may be a person or a company and need not be a shareholder of the Company or the person designated by management in the enclosed proxy form. The right to appoint a proxy of your choice may be exercised by inserting the name of the person or company in the blank space provided in the enclosed proxy form or by completing another proxy form. If you do not have a proxy form and believe that you should have one, or if you require additional proxy forms (to appoint more than one proxy), please contact our Registrar's shareholder helpline on +44 (0) 370 707 4040.
3.3 On any poll that may be called for, the Ordinary Shares represented by a properly executed proxy given in favour of the person(s) designated by management of the Company in the enclosed proxy form will be voted or withheld from voting in accordance with the instructions of the shareholder on any the ballot, and if the shareholder specifies a choice with respect to any matter to be acted upon, the Ordinary Shares will be voted accordingly.
3.4 The appointment of a proxy will not prevent a shareholder from subsequently attending and voting at the Meeting in person, in which case any votes cast by the proxy will be excluded and your proxy appointment will automatically be terminated. You may also revoke your proxy appointment by depositing an instrument in writing signed by you at the registered office of the Company at any time up to and including the last business day preceding the day of the Meeting, or in the case of any adjournment of the Meeting, the last business day preceding the day of the adjournment, or with the Chairman of the Meeting on the day of, and prior to the start of, the Meeting or any adjournment thereof. A shareholder may also revoke a proxy in any other manner permitted by law.
3.5 To appoint a proxy, using the proxy form, the form must be:
• completed and signed;
• sent or delivered to the Company at:

Jersey, Channel Islands Canada Computershare Investor Services (Jersey) Limited Computershare Investor Services Inc. c/o The Pavilions 100 University Avenue Bridgwater Road 8th Floor Bristol BS99 6ZY Toronto, ON M5J 2Y1; and

• received by Computershare Investor Services (Jersey) Limited/Computershare Investor Services Inc. "Computershare") no later than 10.00 am on 9 May 2016.

In the case of a shareholder which is a company, the proxy form must be executed under its common seal or signed on its behalf by an officer of the company or an attorney for the company.

Any power of attorney or any other authority under which the proxy form is signed (or a duly certified copy of such power or authority) must be included with the proxy form.

3.6 As alternatives to completing the hard‑copy proxy form, you can appoint a proxy:
(a) by sending your signed proxy form by email to [email protected] or by facsimile to +44 (0) 370 703 6322 or (in the case of Canadian shareholders) to 1‑866‑249‑7775; or
(b) online at www.investorcentre.co.uk/eproxy using your unique Control Number and PIN set out in the enclosed proxy form.

For such electronic proxy appointments to be valid, they are to be received by Computershare no later than 10.00 am on 9 May 2016.

3.7 CREST shareholders who wish to appoint a proxy or proxies through the CREST electronic proxy appointment service may do so for the Meeting and any adjournment(s) of it by using the procedures described in the CREST Manual. CREST personal shareholders or other CREST sponsored shareholders, and those CREST shareholders who have appointed a voting service provider(s), should refer to their CREST sponsor or voting service provider(s), who will be able to take the appropriate action on their behalf.

In order for a proxy appointment or instruction made using the CREST service to be valid, the appropriate CREST message (a "CREST Proxy Instruction") must be properly authenticated in accordance with Euroclear UK & Ireland Limited's ("EUI") specifications and must contain the information required for such instructions, as described in the CREST Manual. The message must be transmitted so as to be received by the issuer's agent (ID 3RA50) no later than 10.00 am on 9 May 2016. For this purpose, the time of receipt will be taken to be the time (as determined by the time stamp applied to the message by the CREST Applications Host) from which the issuer's agent is able to retrieve the message by enquiry to CREST in the manner prescribed by CREST. After this time any change of instructions to proxies appointed through CREST should be communicated to the appointee through other means.

CREST shareholders and, where applicable, their CREST sponsors or voting service providers should note that EUI does not make available special procedures in CREST for any particular messages. Normal system timings and limitations will therefore apply in relation to the input of CREST Proxy Instructions. It is the responsibility of the CREST shareholder concerned to take (or, if the CREST shareholder is a CREST personal shareholder or sponsored shareholder or has appointed a voting service provider(s), to procure that his CREST sponsor or voting service provider(s) take(s)) such action as shall be necessary to ensure that a message is transmitted by means of the CREST system by any particular time. In this connection, CREST shareholders and, where applicable, their CREST sponsors or voting service providers are referred, in particular, to those sections of the CREST Manual concerning practical limitations of the CREST system and timings.

The Company may treat as invalid a CREST Proxy Instruction in the circumstances set out in Article 34 of the Companies (Uncertificated Securities) (Jersey) Order 1999.

3.8 In the case of joint holders, where more than one of the joint holders purports to appoint a proxy, only the appointment submitted by the most senior holder will be accepted. Seniority is determined by the order in which the names of the joint holders appear in the Company's register of shareholders in respect of the joint holding (the first named being the most senior).
3.9 If you submit more than one valid proxy appointment in respect of the same share for use at the same meeting or poll, the appointment received last before the latest time for the receipt of proxies will take precedence.
3.10 Under the Companies (Jersey) Law 1991, a body corporate may only appoint one corporate representative. A share owner which is a body corporate that wishes to allocate its votes to more than one person should use the proxy arrangements.
3.11 Copies of the following documents are available for inspection during normal business hours at the registered office of the Company, 2 Mulcaster Street, St Helier, Jersey, JE2 3NJ on any weekday (Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays excepted) from the date of the Notice and at the place of the Meeting from 9.00 am (Jersey time) until the close of the Meeting:
(a) Executive Directors' service contracts and letters of appointment for the Non‑Executive Directors;
(b) the directors' deeds of indemnity; and
(c) the memorandum of association and Articles of the Company.
3.12 Any shareholder attending the Meeting has the right to ask questions. The Company must cause to be answered any such question relating to the business being dealt with at the Meeting except in limited circumstances.

for the Annual General Meeting of shareholders of Centamin plc (the "Company")

4 Non‑registered (or beneficial) shareholders in Canada

4.1 Many shareholders in Canada and elsewhere are non‑registered shareholders because the Ordinary Shares they own are not registered in their names but are instead registered in the name of an intermediary such as the brokerage firm, bank or trust corporation through which they purchased the Ordinary Shares. A non‑registered (or beneficial) shareholder holding through the Canadian Register typically holds their Ordinary Shares either:
(a) in the name of the intermediary that such shareholder deals with in respect of the Ordinary Shares (Intermediaries include, among others, banks, trust companies, securities dealers or brokers and trustees or administrators of self‑administered RRSPs, RRIFs, RESPs and similar plans); or
(b) in the name of a clearing agency (such CDS), of which the intermediary is a participant.
4.2 The Company will not be relying on the notice and access delivery procedures outlined in National Instrument 54‑101 Communications with Beneficial Owners of Securities of a Reporting Issuer of the Canadian Securities Administrators ("NI 54‑101") to distribute copies of proxy‑related materials in connection with the Meeting.
4.3 Copies of the Notice of Meeting, this Circular and the proxy form (collectively, the "Meeting Materials") are being sent to both registered owners of the securities and to non‑registered (or beneficial) shareholders holding through the Canadian Register. If you are a non‑registered (or beneficial) shareholder holding through the Canadian Register, and the Company or its agent has sent these materials directly to you, your name and address and information about your holdings of securities, have been obtained in accordance with applicable securities regulatory requirements from the intermediary holding on your behalf. By choosing to send these materials to you directly, the issuer (and not the intermediary holding on your behalf) has assumed responsibility for (i) delivering these materials to you, and (ii) executing your proper voting instructions. Please return your voting instructions as specified in the request for voting instructions.
4.4 In accordance with the requirements of NI 54‑101, the Company has distributed copies of the Meeting Materials to CDS and intermediaries (each as defined in NI 54‑101) for onward distribution to non‑registered (or beneficial) shareholders holding through the Canadian Register who are "OBOs" (as such term is defined in NI 54‑101). The Company intends to pay for an intermediary to forward the Meeting Materials to OBOs, including a voting information form (as described further below).
4.5 If you are a non‑registered (or beneficial) shareholder holding through the Canadian Register and you have not declined to receive the Meeting Materials, then you will receive either a voting instruction form or, less frequently, a partially completed proxy form. The purpose of these forms is to permit you to direct the voting of your Ordinary Shares that you beneficially own. If you are a non‑registered (or beneficial) shareholder holding through the Canadian Register you should follow the procedures set out below, depending on which type of form you receive.
(a) Voting Instruction Form. In most cases, you will receive, as part of the Meeting Materials, a voting instruction form. If you do not wish to attend and vote at the Meeting in person (or have another person attend and vote on your behalf), the voting instruction form must be completed, signed and returned in accordance with the directions on the form. If you wish to attend and vote at the Meeting in person (or have another person attend and vote on your behalf), then you must complete, sign and return the voting instruction form in accordance with the directions provided and a form of proxy giving the right to attend and vote will be forwarded to you.
Or
(b) Form of Proxy. Less frequently, you will receive, as part of the Meeting Materials, a form of proxy that has already been signed by the intermediary (typically by a facsimile, stamped signature) which is restricted as to the number of Ordinary Shares beneficially owned by you, but which is otherwise incomplete. If you do not wish to attend and vote at the Meeting in person (or have another person attend and vote on your behalf), you must complete the form of proxy and deposit it with the Computershare, as described above. If you wish to attend and vote at the Meeting in person (or have another person attend and vote on your behalf), you must strike out the names of the persons named in the proxy and insert your name (or such other person's) name in the blank space provided.
4.6 In any case, the purpose of this procedure is to permit a non‑registered (or beneficial) shareholder holding through the Canadian Register to direct the voting of the Ordinary Shares which they beneficially own. Should a non‑registered (or beneficial) shareholder holding through the Canadian Register who receives one of the above forms wish to vote at the Meeting in person, such beneficial owner should strike out the names of the management proxy holders and insert his or her name in the blank space provided. Non‑registered (or beneficial) shareholders holding through the Canadian Register should follow the instructions on the forms they receive, including those regarding when and where the forms are to be delivered, and contact their Intermediaries promptly if they need assistance.

5 Matters to be acted upon at meetings

Resolutions 1 to 6 are each proposed as ordinary resolutions including the Resolutions at 3.1 to 3.2, 4.1 to 4.7 and 5.1 to 5.2 which will each be proposed as separate resolutions. This means that for each of those resolutions to be passed, more than half of the votes cast must be in favour of the resolution. Resolutions 7 and 8 are proposed as special resolutions. This means that for each of these resolutions to be passed, at least three quarters of the votes cast must be in favour of the resolution.

6 Recommendation

The Board considers that all resolutions proposed at the Meeting are in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders as a whole. The directors unanimously recommend that you vote in favour of all the proposed resolutions.

Resolution 1 – To receive the Annual Report and Accounts for the year ended 31 December 2015

The financial statements and the strategic and directors' reports and auditors report for the financial period ended 31 December 2015 will be presented at the Meeting. The Annual Report and Accounts for the financial period ended 31 December 2015 (the "Annual Report") and the Notice of Meeting are available on the Company's website at www.centamin.com. Shareholders will be given the opportunity to ask questions of the board of directors of the Company (the "Board") and the auditor of the Company in relation to the Annual Report at the Meeting.

Resolution 2 – Declaration of final dividend

A final dividend of 1.97 US cents per share in respect of the year ended 31 December 2015 is recommended by the directors for payment to shareholders who are on the register of members at the close of business on 22 April 2016 and if Resolution 2 is approved, the date of payment of the final dividend will be 27 May 2016.

This will represent a full year total dividend of 2.94 US cents per share.

Resolution 3.1 – Directors Remuneration Report

In accordance with accepted best corporate governance practice for a company whose shares are admitted to the premium segment of the Official List of the UK Listing Authority and to trading on the London Stock Exchange's Main Market, the Company will put its report on directors' remuneration (other than the directors' remuneration policy report) to an advisory shareholder vote. As the vote is advisory it will not affect the actual remuneration paid to any individual director. The report on directors' remuneration is set out in full on pages 80 to 97 of the Annual Report.

Resolution 3.2 – Directors remuneration policy report

The board of directors seeks shareholders' approval for the directors' remuneration policy report contained in the directors' remuneration report.

In accordance with accepted best corporate governance practice for a company whose shares are admitted to the premium segment of the Official List of the UK Listing Authority and to trading on the London Stock Exchange's Main Market, the Company will put its directors' remuneration policy report to an advisory shareholder vote. Centamin plc is a Jersey incorporated company and is therefore not subject to the UK Company law requirements to submit its remuneration policy report to shareholders on a binding vote. The Company has adopted the format of the new remuneration report and intends submitting a remuneration policy report to shareholders each year for approval. It is the board's intention to operate in line with the remuneration policy and the board will have regard to shareholder feedback on the policy.

Resolutions 4.1 to 4.7 – Reappointment of Directors

In accordance with the UK Corporate Governance Code and the Company's Articles, all members of the Board will retire at this year's Meeting and, being eligible, will each offer themselves for re‑election as directors of the Company. Biographies of each of the directors can be found on pages 70 and 71 of the Annual Report.

The following table sets forth information with respect to each person proposed to be nominated for election or re‑election as a director, including the number of Ordinary Shares of the Company beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, or over which control or direction was exercised, by such person or the person's associates or affiliates as at the date of this Circular. The information as to Ordinary Shares beneficially owned or over which control or direction is exercised, not being within the knowledge of the Company, has been furnished by the respective proposed nominees individually.

No proposed director of the Company or personal holding company of such person is, as at the date of this Circular, or has been, within 10 years before the date of this Circular, a director, chief executive officer or chief financial officer of any company (including the Company) that,

(a) was subject to a cease trade order, an order similar to a cease trade order or an order that denied the relevant company access to any exemption under securities legislation, that was in effect for a period of more than 30 consecutive days, that was issued while the proposed director was acting in the capacity as a director, chief executive officer or chief financial officer; or
(b) was subject to a cease trade order, an order similar to a cease trade order or an order that denied the relevant company access to any exemption under securities legislation, that was in effect for a period of more than 30 consecutive days, that was issued after the proposed director ceased to be a director, chief executive officer or chief financial officer and which resulted from an event that occurred while that person was acting in the capacity as director, chief executive officer or chief financial officer.

No proposed director of the Company is, as at the date of this Circular, or has been within 10 years before the date of this Circular, a director or executive officer of any company (including the Company) that, while that person was acting in that capacity, or within a year of that person ceasing to act in that capacity, became bankrupt, made a proposal under any legislation relating to bankruptcy or insolvency or was subject to or instituted any proceedings, arrangement or compromise with creditors or had a receiver, receiver manager or trustee appointed to hold its assets.

No proposed director of the Company or any personal holding company of such person has, within the 10 years before the date of this Circular, become bankrupt, made a proposal under any legislation relating to bankruptcy or insolvency, or become subject to or instituted any proceedings, arrangement or compromise with creditors, or had a receiver, receiver manager or trustee appointed to hold the assets of the proposed director.

Resolutions 5.1 and 5.2 – Appointment of Auditors

Resolutions 5.1 relates to the reappointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as the Company's auditors to hold office until the next annual general meeting of the Company. PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP has been the auditors of the Company since June 2014.

Resolution 5.2 relates to the authorisation of the directors to set the remuneration of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP.

Resolution 6 – Allotment of share capital

The purpose of resolution 6 is to renew the directors' power to allot relevant securities.

The authority in paragraph (a) will allow the directors to allot up to 384,035,995 new shares and other relevant securities which is equivalent to approximately one‑third of the total issued ordinary share capital of the Company as at the date of this Circular.

Consistent with the guidance issued by the Association of British Insurers (ABI) concerning directors' power to allot share capital in the context of a rights issue, the authority in paragraph (b) will allow the directors to allot up to 768,071,989 new shares and other relevant securities only in connection with a rights issue (as reduced by the number of relevant securities issued under the authority conferred by paragraph (a)), which is equivalent to approximately two‑thirds of the total issued share capital of the Company as at the date of this Circular.

There are no present plans to undertake a rights issue or to otherwise allot shares pursuant to this renewed authority other than in connection with employee share plans.

The directors consider it desirable to have the maximum flexibility permitted by corporate governance guidelines to respond to market developments and to enable allotments to take place to finance business opportunities as they arise.

For the purposes of this resolution, a "relevant security" has the meaning given in the Company's Articles of Association, being shares in the Company other than subscriber shares, or shares allotted pursuant to an Employee Share Scheme (as defined in the Articles), and any right to subscribe for or to convert any security into, shares in the Company. For the avoidance of doubt any reference to the allotment of relevant securities includes the grant of such a right but not the allotment of shares pursuant to such a right. References to the allotment of "relevant securities" in the resolution shall be construed accordingly.

The power will last until the conclusion of the next AGM in 2017.

As at close of business on the date of this Circular the Company did not hold any treasury shares.

6 Recommendation continued

Resolution 7 – Disapplication of pre‑emption rights

Resolution 7 will give the directors authority to allot shares in the capital of the Company pursuant to the authority granted under Resolution 6 above for cash without complying with the pre‑emption rights in the Company's Articles in certain circumstances. In the light of the ABI guidelines described in relation to Resolution 6 above, this authority will permit the directors to allot:

(a) up to 768,071,989 equity securities (as such term is defined in the Articles) representing approximately two‑thirds of the Company's issued ordinary share capital on an offer to existing shareholders on a pre‑emptive basis. However unless the shares are allotted pursuant to a rights issue (rather than an open offer), the directors may only allot up to 384,035,995 equity securities, representing one‑third of the Company's issued share capital (in each case subject to any adjustments, such as for fractional entitlements and overseas shareholders, as the directors see fit); and
(b) up to 115,210,798 equity securities (as such term is defined in the Articles) representing approximately 10% of the issued ordinary share capital of the Company as at the date of this Circular (the latest practicable date prior to publication of this notice) otherwise than in connection with an offer to existing shareholders.

The directors have no present intention of exercising this authority.

The aggregate nominal amount set out in (b) represents approximately 10% of the Company's issued ordinary share capital as at 5 April 2016, the latest practicable date prior to publication of this Circular. The directors confirm that they will only allot shares representing more than 5% of the issued ordinary share capital of the Company for cash pursuant to the authority referred to in (b), where that allotment is in connection with an acquisition or specified capital investment (within the meanings given in the Pre‑Emption Group's Statement of Principles, as revised in March 2015) which is announced contemporaneously with the allotment, or which has taken place in the preceding six‑month period and is disclosed in the announcement of the allotment.

The directors further confirm their intention to follow the provisions of the Pre‑emption Group's Statement of Principles regarding cumulative use of such authorities within a rolling three‑year period, where the Principles provide that any issues in excess of 7.5% of the issued ordinary share capital of the Company within a rolling three‑year period other than to existing shareholders should not take place without prior consultation with shareholders, except in connection with an acquisition or specified capital investment as referred to above.

Issues of shares to satisfy awards made under the company's restricted share plan are, pursuant to the Company's Articles of Association, not subject to the right of pre‑emption and so any such issues will not count towards the limit set out in (b), above.

Resolution 8 – Market Purchases of Ordinary Shares

(a) Share Capital

As at the date of this Circular, the issued share capital of the Company comprised 1,152,107,984 Ordinary Shares.

Subject to the passing of the special resolution at the Meeting granting the proposed mandate to the directors of the Company to repurchase Ordinary Shares (the "Repurchase Mandate") and on the basis that no further Ordinary Shares are issued or repurchased up to the date of the Meeting, the Company will be allowed to repurchase Ordinary Shares up to a maximum number of 57,605,399 Ordinary Shares (being 5% of the issued share capital of the Company as at the date of this Circular) during the period ending on the earlier of the conclusion of the next AGM of the Company and the date by which the next AGM of the Company is required to be held by the Articles or any applicable law.

(b) Reasons for Repurchase

The directors have no present intention of exercising this authority however, the directors believe that it is in the best interests of the Company and the shareholders to seek a general authority from the shareholders to enable the Company to repurchase Ordinary Shares on market. Such repurchases may, depending on market conditions and funding arrangements at the time, lead to an enhancement of the net asset value of the Company and/or earnings per share and will only be made in compliance with the Financial Conduct Authority's Listing Rules and all applicable laws and regulations and when the directors believe that such a repurchase will benefit the Company and the shareholders as a whole.

(c) Funding of Repurchase

Repurchases made pursuant to the proposed Repurchase Mandate would be funded out of funds legally available for the purpose in accordance with the Articles and the laws of Jersey.

The maximum price (excluding expenses paid by the Company) payable pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate is the highest of (i) 105% of the average of the closing middle market prices for the Ordinary Shares of the Company derived from the London Stock Exchange Daily Official list for such Ordinary Shares for the five business days immediately preceding the date of purchase; and (ii) the higher of the price of the last independent trade and the highest then current independent bid on the trading venues where the purchase is carried out, and the minimum price is not less than £0.01. Any share repurchase will also need to comply with the requirements of applicable Canadian securities law and the Toronto Stock Exchange. On the basis of the consolidated financial position of the Company as at 31 December 2015, being the date of its latest audited accounts, the directors consider that if the Repurchase Mandate were to be exercised in full at the currently prevailing market value, it may have a material adverse impact on the working capital position and gearing position of the Company. The directors do not propose to exercise the Repurchase Mandate to such an extent as would, in the circumstances, have a material adverse effect on the working capital requirements of the Company as compared with the position disclosed in the latest published audited financial statements or the gearing levels which in the opinion of the directors are from time to time appropriate for the Company.

There were no options outstanding at the date of this Circular.

(d) Share Repurchase

From 30 December 2011 (the date on which the Ordinary Shares were listed on the London and Toronto Stock Exchanges) to the date of this Circular no purchases of Ordinary Shares have been made by the Company whether on these stock exchanges or otherwise.

(e) General Information and Undertakings

None of the directors or, to the best of the knowledge of the directors having made all reasonable enquiries, any of their associates (as defined in the Financial Conduct Authority's Listing Rules) currently intend to sell Ordinary Shares to the Company or its subsidiaries.

No connected person of the Company, as defined in the Financial Conduct Authority's Listing Rules, has notified the Company that he has a present intention to sell Ordinary Shares to the Company, or has undertaken not to do so in the event that the Company is authorised to make purchases of the Ordinary Shares.

7 Voting of proxies by the Chairman

In the absence of a contrary instruction, the person designated by management of the Company in the enclosed proxy form intends to vote FOR each of the proposed resolutions, unless the shareholder who has given the proxy has directed that the Ordinary Shares represented thereby be voted against such resolutions or have their vote withheld. In order to be effective, the ordinary resolutions proposed must be approved by a simple majority of the votes cast by the shareholders at the Meeting in person or by proxy, while the special resolutions must be approved by 75% of the votes cast by the shareholders at the Meeting in person or by proxy.

8 Interest of Certain Persons in Matters to Be Acted Upon

Except as described herein, no director or executive officer of the Company or any proposed nominee by management of the Company for election as a director of the Company, nor any associate or affiliate of the foregoing persons, has any material interest, direct or indirect, by way of beneficial ownership of securities or otherwise, since the beginning of the Company's last financial year in matters to be acted upon at the Meeting, other than the election of directors or the appointment of auditors.

(1) This column identifies the value of awards made under the Company's share plans. Mr Pardey, Mr Louw and Mr Osman, who previously held awards under the LFSP are holders of awards under the DBSP. Options granted under the EOS to Mr Davidson were replaced with awards under the DBSP in 2014. Mr Pardey, Mr Osman Mr Louw and Mr Davidson all received awards granted under the RSP in 2015.

(2) The fair value of shares in the DBSP were calculated using the closing share price on the grant date, converted at the closing GBP:US\$ foreign exchange rate on that day and no other factors were taken into account in determining the fair value. Details of the valuation of shares prior to the awards granted under the DBSP on 4 June 2013 are detailed in the prior year Circular.

(3) 20% of the awards granted under the RSP are dependent on a TSR performance condition. As relative TSR is defined as a market condition under IFRS 2 "Share‑based Payment", this requires that the valuation model used takes into account the anticipated performance outcome and therefore applied a Monte Carlo simulation model. The simulation model takes into account the probability of performance based on the expected volatility of Centamin and the peer group companies and the expected correlation of returns between the companies in the comparator group. The remaining 80% of the awards are subject to EPS and gold production performance conditions have been valued using a Black‑Scholes model. The fair value calculated was then converted at the closing £:US\$ foreign exchange rate on that day.

(4) Josef El‑Raghy is Chairman of the Company (and CEO until January 2015). Mr. Louw joined Centamin Egypt Limited on 13 May 2011 as Chief Financial Officer. Mr Pardey was appointed Chief Operating Officer on 29 May 2012 and was promoted to CEO on 1 February 2015. Mr Davidson joined the Company on 13 August 2012 as Head of Investor Relations. Mr Osman was appointed business development manager on 3 February 2014 having previously served as open pit mine manager at Sukari.

(5) The amounts with respect to Mr. El‑Raghy include US\$152,674 paid to him in 2015 in lieu of contributions to a pension scheme.

(6) The amounts shown in the "All Other Compensation" relate to amounts received in benefits in kind.

(7) Directors' remuneration paid in foreign currency was converted at an average rate during the year. The average GBP:US\$ exchange rate for 2015 is 1.5267. Bonus accruals for 2015 applied an exchange rate of GBP:US\$1.4823.

During the financial period ended 31 December 2015, the Company or its subsidiaries were party to employment contracts with each of Josef El‑Raghy, Andrew Pardey, Pierre Louw, Andrew Davidson and Richard Osman. The compensation of these individuals during the financial year are set out in the Summary Compensation Table above. Remuneration and other terms of employment for the following directors and executives are formalised in employment contracts, the terms of which as at the date of this Circular, are set out below:

Josef El‑Raghy, Chairman and CEO:

• term: Indefinite with a 12 months' notice of termination period.
• base salary: currently, GBP515,000, reviewed annually by the Remuneration Committee.
• In the case of notice given in connection with and shortly following a change of control, Josef El‑Raghy will be entitled to payment in lieu of an amount equal to 12 month's basic salary together with any bonus that, in the opinion of the Remuneration Committee, would have been due to him at the time of the completion of the change of control taking into account all the relevant performance indicators.

Andrew Pardey, Chief Executive Officer:

• term: indefinite with a 3 months' notice of termination period.
• base salary GBP460,000
• In the event of a change of control of the Company, Mr Pardey shall be entitled to receive an unconditional contractual payment of 12 months remuneration.

Pierre Louw, Chief Financial Officer (Currently serving his notice period):

• term: indefinite with a 3 months' notice of termination period:
• base salary: GBP390,000 reviewed annually by the Remuneration Committee.

Except as otherwise stated, employment contracts described above do not provide for entitlement to compensation for termination of employment apart from compensation payable up to and including the date of termination and all payments due by virtue of accrued leave, unless otherwise disclosed. Except for such contracts and the payment of director's fees, there are no service contracts of any director or officer of the Company and there is no arrangement or agreement made between the Company and any of its Named Executive Officers pursuant to which a payment or other benefit is to be made or given by way of compensation in the event of that officer's resignation, retirement or other termination of employment, or in the event of a change of control of the Company or a change in the Named Executive Officer's responsibilities following such change of control.

9.7 Non‑Executive Directors

All Non‑Executive Directors have signed letters of appointment, under which their term of appointment is contingent on satisfactory performance and re‑election each year in accordance with the Company's Articles of Association. Annual re‑election is consistent with paragraph B.7.1 of the UK Corporate Governance Code, which requires all directors of FTSE 350 companies to be subject to annual election by shareholders. The Company does not have an established term limit for its directors or a retirement policy. The Nomination Committee undertakes an annual assessment of the Board and it considers that this evaluation process is an effective basis to ensure Board renewal (where appropriate). It has therefore determined that set term limits are unnecessary. The Company complies with the provisions in the Code at B.7.1.

All the Non‑Executive directors (with the exception of Trevor Schultz) are considered to be independent within the meaning of Section 1.4 of National Instrument 52‑110‑ Audit Committees.

The table below shows each Non‑Executive Director and the date of the last AGM at which they were the subject of re‑election.

Non‑Executive Director	Date of last AGM at which they were the subject of re‑election

(1) These amounts are in respect of contributions made to Mark Arnesen's superannuation funds.

(2) All amounts referred to in the table above have been converted at an average rate during the year. The average GBP:US\$ exchange rate for 2015 is 1.5267.

Non‑Executive Directors receive annual fees within an aggregate directors' fee pool limited to an amount which is approved by shareholders. The committee reviews and recommends, for Board approval, remuneration levels and policies for directors within this overall Non‑Executive Directors' fee pool. The fees which are paid are also periodically reviewed.

Directors are entitled to be reimbursed for expenses incurred by them in their capacity as directors. Directors who are also officers or employees of the Company were not paid any amount as a result of their serving as directors of the Company.

There are no share‑based option or non‑equity incentive plans in place for any of the Non‑Executive Directors.

Remuneration Philosophy

The remuneration committee is a committee of the Company is represented by three non‑executive directors, namely, Edward Haslam (Chair), Mark Arnesen and Kevin Tomlinson, all of whom are regarded as wholly independent. The committee has the necessary skills and compensation related experience in the mining and exploration industry. For further information please refer to the biographies above.

No member of the committee has any financial interest, other than as shareholder, in the matters decided by the committee. None of the members of the committee participates in any bonus scheme, long term incentive, pension or other form of remuneration other than the fees disclosed below and the statutory superannuation for the Australian resident directors. There is no actual or potential conflict of interest arising from the other directorships held by members of the committee.

The committee seeks to set base salaries competitively against the market, aiming to be fair but not excessive. During 2015, the remuneration committee took advice from MEIS (an independent remuneration consultancy) who provided advice and compensation comparison data to the remuneration committee. MEIS is engaged on an annual retainer for GBP8,000 for a 12 month period. MEIS were originally appointed on the recommendation of the remuneration committee and are regarded by the Committee as providing independent advice as they have no connections with the directors and officers of the Company other than this engagement.

The committee remains wedded to a simple approach to remuneration and the introduction of the new restricted share plan will help ensure both executives have a meaningful actual shareholding to directly link their interests with those of the shareholders. There is no better union of interest between shareholder and executives than for executives to be substantial shareholders in their own right.

Andrew Pardey (CEO) now participates in the new RSP. Josef El‑Raghy (Chairman) does not currently participate in the scheme and as a shareholder with a 6.2% interest in the Company, Josef El‑Raghy remains aligned with the interests of shareholders. Josef El‑Raghy's participation in the new scheme will be reviewed in 2016 to consider if participation in 2017 would be appropriate.

The Company believes this simple approach allows a cleaner line of sight for the delivery of performance in the short term while meaningful shareholdings means the value of executive directors' overall compensation package is more directly linked to the fortunes of other shareholders.

For employees (other than directors), the complex loan funded arrangements that previously existed have been replaced with one simple Deferred Bonus Share Plan (details of which are set out in Appendix A) as well as the new restricted share plan which is available to directors and awards have also been made to members our senior employee and management team.

9.8 Directors Compensation continued

The remuneration policy therefore seeks to:

• position remuneration packages to ensure that they remain competitive, taking account of all elements of remuneration and be reflective of the performance of the Company;
• use external benchmark data on a transparent and open basis using comparator groups that reflect the industry and size of the Company
• provide incentive arrangements for relevant employees that are based upon pre‑agreed performance criteria against which individuals will then be tested. Such incentives should be relevant and stretching;
• provide long term incentives that encourage the involvement, in the long term, of the performance of the Company; and
• encourage executives, and in particular executive directors, to build and then maintain a meaningful shareholding in the Company.

Our remuneration policy for executive directors is consistent with that across the Company and intends to attract and retain high performing individuals and to reward success. Base pay and benefits are set competitively taking account of the individual's performance and market data.

The current bonus plan for the executive directors and NEOs is based upon a balanced score card approach designed to encourage and reward the delivery of operational, financial and individual performance. The bonus criteria is weighted, with 70% of the criteria relating to the overall performance of the business and 30% relating to individual targets.

Details of the Company's long term incentive arrangements are set out in Appendix A. Eligible employees are participating in the DBSP and RSP.

Other general benefits include expatriate medical insurances, payment (in respect of employees employed under contracts of employment that provide for a "net" basis of payment) of Egyptian taxes for expatriate employees and in a few instances, spousal and family travel. However there are no schemes for retirement benefits other than statutory superannuation for Australian resident directors and senior management, currently Mark Arnesen.

Compensation levels for the NEOs over the period remained reflective with the trend of total return on investment charted for the Company in the performance graph (set out below and in the Directors Remuneration Report), reflecting the higher proportion of ''at risk'' compensation for the NEOs, although this trend was disturbed in 2012 due to the decrease in the Company's share price.

For details of the Company's remuneration policy, remuneration report, comparative remuneration data and incentive arrangements, please see the Directors Remuneration Report contained in the Annual Report.

(1) The vesting of 20% the awards granted under this plan are dependent on a TSR performance condition. As relative TSR is defined as a market condition under IFRS 2 "Share‑based Payment", this requires that the valuation model used takes into account the anticipated performance outcome. We have therefore applied a Monte Carlo simulation model. The simulation model takes into account the probability of performance based on the expected volatility of Centamin and the peer group companies and the expected correlation of returns between the companies in the comparator group. The remaining 80% of the awards are subject to EPS and gold production performance conditions. As these are classified as non‑market conditions under IFRS 2 they do not need to be taken into account when determining the fair value. These grants have been valued using a Black‑Scholes model. The fair value calculated was then converted at the closing £:US\$ foreign exchange rate on that day.

9.15 Interests of management and others in material transactions

Other than as disclosed in this Circular, no director or senior officer of the Company or any shareholder holding, on record or beneficially, directly or indirectly, more than 10% of the issued Ordinary Shares, or any of their respective associates or affiliates, had any material interest, directly or indirectly, in any transaction with the Company since 1 January 2015 to the date of this Circular or in any proposed transaction which has materially affected or would materially affect the Company or any of its subsidiaries.

By order of the Board of Directors

Josef El‑Raghy Chairman Dated 5 April 2016

APPENDIX A – SUMMARY OF KEY TERMS OF THE SHARE PLANS

Centamin introduced a new long term incentive scheme, which was approved by shareholders at the AGM on 18 May 2015. The aim of the plan is to introduce a long term incentive plan that can provide a suitable recruitment and retention tool for any new or promoted executives, senior management and individuals at executive director level. The plan, which complies with best practice guidelines, is to provide a platform, as part of the remuneration policy, to be used to provide a long term reward tool for participants.

Restricted share plan ("RSP")

The RSP was approved by the shareholder at the AGM on 18 May 2015. Full details of the plan are set out in the 2014 Directors Remuneration Report.

Following the adoption of the new restricted share plan, the Company has granted 5,145,000 conditional awards to employees of the group (900,000 awards were made to Andrew Pardey, executive director). 21 employees participate in the RSP, including heads of department and senior personnel based onsite, as well as members of the senior management team located at the head office.

The remuneration committee also proposed an amendment to the scheme rules, following feedback from shareholders and the proxy advisory organisation and the Company subsequently applied an amendment to the published scheme rules to include a malus claw back provision. In summary, the additional clause has been included so that an award holder who ceases to be an eligible employee for cause (see definition below) in the period after the award has vested but before the settlement of the deferred shares (i.e. during the two year holding period) shall immediately forfeit his/her rights in the award from the date of cessation. Cause is defined as "ceasing to be an Eligible Employee by reason of dismissal for gross misconduct, fraud or materially adversely affecting the group's reputation".

The awards granted on the 4 June 2015 will vest in three years (with 50% of the vested shares deferred for a further two years) and will be subject to satisfaction of the Performance Conditions which are set out below and divided into three tranches:

• 20% of the award shall be assessed by reference to a target total shareholder return ("TSR"). If the top end of the TSR target is met (currently anticipated to be if the Company is ranked equal to or better than the upper quarter total shareholder return of selected comparator companies, see below) all 20% of the award tranche shall vest. If the Company is ranked at the median level in a table of comparator companies by reference to TSR, 25% of the award tranche shall vest (i.e. 5% of the award). Proportionate amounts of the award tranche will vest for results in between.

The comparator group is as follows: Agnico Eagle Mines Ltd, AngloGold Ashanti, Centerra Gold, Eldorado Gold, Gold Fields Ltd, Kinross Gold Corporation, IAMGOLD Resources Inc, Petropavlovsk, Polyus Gold, Randgold Resources, Yamana Gold, Inc, Acacia Mining plc/African Barrick, Alacer Gold, B2 Gold Corp and Endeavour Mining;

• 50% of the award shall be assessed by reference to absolute growth in earnings per share ("EPS"). If a compound annual growth rate in EPS of the Company of 12% is achieved, all 50% of the award tranche shall vest. If a compound annual growth rate in EPS of the Company of 8% is achieved 25% of the award tranche shall vest (i.e. 12.5% of the Award). Proportionate amounts of the award tranche will vest for results in between. With the onset of profit share (expected from 2017) likely to impact the growth of EPS, the Remuneration Committee will have the discretion to make a fair and equitable adjustment, if necessary, to reflect the impact of profit share when assessing the growth over the period of the grant. Any such adjustment will be discussed with key shareholders at the time; and
• 30% of the award shall be assessed by reference to compound growth in gold production. If a compound annual growth rate of 10% of gold production is achieved, all 30% of the award tranche shall vest. If a compound annual growth rate of 6% of gold production is achieved 25% of the award tranche shall vest (i.e. 7.5% of the award). Proportionate amounts of the award tranche will vest for results in between.

Further awards are intended to be made in April 2016. The awards granted in April 2016 will vest following the passing of three years. Vesting will be subject to the satisfaction of the following performance conditions (and the two year holding period for 50% of the vested award) which are divided into four tranches, as follows:

• TSR: 20% of the award shall be assessed by reference to a target total shareholder return ("TSR"). If the top end of the TSR target is met (currently anticipated to be if the Company is ranked equal to or better than the upper quarter total shareholder return of selected comparator companies, see below) all 20% of the award tranche shall vest. If the Company is ranked at the median level in a table of comparator companies by reference to TSR, 25% of the award tranche shall vest (i.e. 5% of the award). Proportionate amounts of the award tranche will vest for results in between.

The comparator group is as follows: Agnico Eagle Mines Ltd, AngloGold Ashanti, Centerra Gold, Eldorado Gold, Gold Fields Ltd, Kinross Gold Corporation, IAMGOLD Resources Inc, Petropavlovsk, Randgold Resources, Yamana Gold, Inc, Acacia Mining plc, Alacer Gold, B2 Gold Corp and Endeavour Mining;

• Mineral Reserves: 30% of the award shall be assessed by reference to mineral reserve replacement and growth. Reserve replacement is calculated based on the cumulative reserve estimates (from June 2015 to the most recent reserve estimate prior to vesting) compared with the cumulative reserves mined from 31 December 2015 to 31 December 2018. All 30% of the award will vest if the ratio is 105%. 25% of the award tranche will vest if the ratio is at least 75% (i.e. 7.5% of the award).
• EBITDA: 20% of the award shall be assessed by reference to compound growth in EBIDTA. If a compound annual growth rate of 9% of EBITDA is achieved, all 20% of the award tranche shall vest. If a compound annual growth rate of 5% of EBITDA is achieved 25% of the award tranche shall vest (i.e. 5% of the award). Proportionate amounts of the award tranche will vest for results in between.
• Gold Production: 30% of the award shall be assessed by reference to compound growth in gold production. If a compound annual growth rate of 8% of gold production is achieved, all 30% of the award tranche shall vest. If a compound annual growth rate of 4% of gold production is achieved 25% of the award tranche shall vest (i.e. 7.5% of the award). Proportionate amounts of the award tranche will vest for results in between.

As Sukari reaches optimum production rates, the relative year‑on‑year rate of growth slows. Maintaining production rates at this optimum level still represents an award, with an appropriate incentive to further improve production rates through efficiency and optimisation.

The above measures are assessed by reference to current market practice and the Remuneration Committee will have regard to current market practice when establishing the precise performance conditions for awards.

Deferred bonus scheme (not for directors)

This plan, introduced in 2012, allowing the annual bonus to be matched with shares which are then ordinarily released in three annual tranches, conditional upon the continued employment with the group. The plan was introduced as a review of annual bonus arrangements for management with the objectives of:

• increasing the variable pay element of remuneration;
• introducing a new retention element in the remuneration package; and
• linking part of that reward to the medium term share performance of the Company.

On 4 June 2013, the Company offered participants of existing plans the opportunity to replace awards with an initial one off award under the deferred bonus share plan. In June 2014, the participants who met the vesting criteria, received their first tranche, representing one third of the original award. An additional grant was awarded in June 2014 to new and existing participants which also vests in thirds over three years.

The plan is not open to directors of the Company and any shares used for the plan are not newly issued shares.

The DBSP, now in its fourth year, provides a simple yet effective incentive to senior management and senior employees below board level, motivating and retaining individuals over the longer term. 31 employees participate in the DBSP, including heads of department and senior personnel based onsite, as well as members of the senior management team located at the head office.
