NOTICE OF MEETING 2022 CENTAMIN PLC

Dear Shareholder

Annual General Meeting

I am pleased to enclose the notice (the "Notice") convening the forthcoming Annual General Meeting ("AGM") of shareholders of Centamin plc (the "Company" or "Centamin") to be held on 10 May 2022 at The Royal Yacht, Weighbridge, St Helier, Jersey, JE2 3NF at 11.00am (BST) (the "Meeting"). The business to be considered by shareholders at the AGM is set out in this document, which includes explanatory notes on each of the Resolutions.

Attendance at the AGM

The last two annual general meetings have been held at the registered office with the minimum physical attendance required to form a quorum, due to the COVID-19 pandemic. During this period, we ensured shareholders could continue to contribute to the meeting with an on-line voting facility and a webcast platform to raise questions.

I am pleased to advise that, as at the date of this Notice, there are no restrictions in place in either the UK or Jersey and therefore an in-person AGM can be held.

The AGM is an opportunity to meet members of the Board and our senior management team and we welcome shareholders who can attend. All Resolutions for consideration at the meeting will be decided on a poll rather than a show of hands. The Company considers this to be a more transparent method of voting as each shareholder has one vote for every share held. There will be a short presentation by the Executive Directors at the AGM and an opportunity for shareholders to raise questions.

Should restrictions resume by the time we hold the AGM, we may be forced to limit attendance, such that only a minimal representation is permitted to satisfy the requirements of the quorum. Any updates to the position and any change to the arrangements for the AGM will be published on the Company's website www.centamin.com and via a regulatory news announcement.

Shareholder voting

Shareholders will be able to complete and submit their votes online or if they prefer, they can complete and return the Proxy Form to the registrar in advance of the AGM. We recommend that all shareholders complete and submit their votes online or complete and return the Proxy Form to our Registrars as soon as possible, and no later than 11.00am (BST) on 6 May 2022, appointing the chair of the Meeting as their proxy. This will ensure that shareholder votes will be counted if a shareholder is unable to attend in person.

All Resolutions for consideration at the AGM will be voted on a poll and all valid proxy votes cast will count towards the poll votes.

Annual Report

An interactive version of the Company's 2021 Annual Report can be found on our website at www.centamin.com.

Remuneration report and policy

The Company is seeking an advisory vote on the implementation of the remuneration report and the Company's remuneration policy. The remuneration report and policy are on pages 127 to 159 of the annual report for the financial year ended 31 December 2021. As noted on page 128 of the annual report, it is intended that the remuneration policy, if approved, will be applicable for the three years following the annual general meeting. A consultation process was carried out by the Remuneration Committee with our major shareholders covering the proposed changes to our policy and executive remuneration. Details of the consultation can be found in the remuneration report.

Centamin Incentive Plan

The Company is seeking approval for the Centamin Incentive Plan (the "Plan"). This is a new long-term incentive plan that enables the Company to implement certain aspects of its remuneration policy. The Plan will enable the award of Performance Share Awards and Deferred Bonus Awards to the Company's Executive Directors and wider participants. Restricted Share Awards can also be awarded under the Plan but this type of award will not be granted to Executive Directors. A summary of the key terms of the Plan are set out at Appendix A.

Final Dividend

Shareholders are being asked to approve a final dividend of 5 US cents (US\$0.05) per ordinary share bringing the total dividend attributed to the full year 2021 to 9 US cents (US\$0.09) per ordinary share totalling US\$105 million.

If shareholders approve the recommended final dividend, the dividend will be paid on 10 June 2022 to shareholders on the register on 20 May 2022. The dividend will be paid in US dollars with an option for shareholders to elect to receive the dividend in pounds sterling. This sterling election must be made no later than 25 May 2022. Payments in sterling will be based on the US\$/GBP exchange rate on 26 May 2022 and the rate will be published on the Company's website on 27 May 2022.

Re-election

In accordance with the UK Corporate Governance Code ("2018 Code") and the Company's Articles of Association, all Directors will be standing for re-election this year. Each Director being proposed for re-election is considered to be effective in their role and commits the appropriate time for board and committee meetings. I therefore believe that each of the re-elections are in the best interests of the Company.

The biographical details of each of the Directors are set out in the explanatory notes included in the Notice.

Recommendation

The Board considers all proposed Resolutions set out in the Notice to be in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders. Therefore, the Directors unanimously recommend that shareholders vote in favour of all ordinary Resolutions numbered 1, 2, 3.1 to 3.3, 4.1 to 4.9, 5.1, 5.2 and 6 and special Resolutions numbered 7.1, 7.2 and 8 as they intend to do in respect to their own beneficial holdings.

Actions of shareholders

We would like as many shareholders as possible to attend our AGM but appreciate this is not always possible. Even if you are unable to attend in person, your vote is important and if you want it to count, please ensure you complete and return the form of proxy to our registrars before 6 May 2022. Details of electronic voting instructions are set out in the Notice.

Questions and answers

We continue to value engagement with shareholders and if a shareholder would like to ask a question about the formal business of the Meeting, please email your questions to investor@centaminplc.com by 4:00pm BST on Friday, 6 May 2022. Alternatively, questions can be raised via the webcast platform before and during the formal business, to be answered at the end of the Meeting, or in person for those wishing to attend the AGM.

We appreciate and thank you for your continued support during these exceptional times.

Yours sincerely

James Rutherford Chairman 4 April 2022

3 PROXIES

• 3.1 This Notice 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 (save in the event of any restrictions on gatherings which may prevent attendance) has the right to appoint a proxy (or proxies) to represent him or her or 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 Notice. 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 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 no later than 11:00am (BST) on 6 May 2022, or in the case of any adjournment of the Meeting, on the date which is two days prior to the time of the adjourned Meeting, 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.
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 11.00am (BST) on 6 May 2022.

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 externalproxyqueries@computershare.co.uk 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 11.00am (BST) on 6 May 2022.

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 11.00am (BST) on 6 May 2022 (or, if the meeting is adjourned, 48 hours before the time of the adjourned meeting). 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 (www.euroclear.com/CREST).

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 10:45 am (BST) 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 Association of 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:
  • 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 selfadministered RRSPs, RRIFs, RESPs and similar plans); or
  • 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 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) Proxy Form. Less frequently, you will receive, as part of the Meeting Materials, a Proxy Form 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 Proxy Form 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 3.3, 4.1 to 4.9 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 7.1, 7.2 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 RECOMMENDATIONS

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 as they intend to do in respect to their own beneficial holdings.

7 VOTING

All Resolutions at the Meeting will be put to a vote on a poll, rather than being decided by a show of hands. The Board believes that this results in a more accurate reflection of the views of shareholders and ensures that their votes are recognised, whether or not they are able to attend the Meeting. On a poll, each shareholder has one vote for every share held.

Resolution 1 – To receive the Annual Report and Accounts for the year ended 31 December 2021

The financial statements and the strategic and governance reports and auditor's report for the financial period ended 31 December 2021 will be presented at the Meeting. The Annual Report and Accounts for the financial period ended 31 December 2021 (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 5 US cents (US\$0.05) per ordinary share (totalling US\$58m) in respect of the year ended 31 December 2021 is recommended by the directors for payment to shareholders who are on the register of members on 20 May 2022 and if Resolution 2 is approved, the date of payment of the final dividend will be 10 June 2022.

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 Financial Conduct Authority ("FCA") 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 a shareholder vote. The report on Directors' remuneration is set out in full on pages 127 to 159 of the Annual Report.

Resolution 3.2 – Directors' remuneration policy

The Board of Directors seeks shareholders' approval for the Directors' remuneration policy contained in the Directors' remuneration report. Taking due account of accepted best corporate governance practice for a company whose shares are admitted to the premium segment of the Official List of the FCA and to trading on the London Stock Exchange's Main Market, the Company will put its Directors' remuneration policy 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 to shareholders on a binding vote. Notwithstanding this, the Company intends submitting the remuneration policy to shareholders at the Meeting with the intention that, if approved, the new policy will be applicable for the three years following the Meeting. Following the conclusion of the Remuneration Committee's policy review, a consultation exercise was held with the Company's major shareholders and the main proxy voting agencies. The Remuneration Committee was pleased that its final proposed changes, amended to take account of the feedback received during the consultation exercise, were well received by the major shareholders.

Resolution 3.3 – Approval and adoption of the rules of the Centamin Incentive Plan

The Board of Directors seeks shareholder approval for the adoption of the Plan. This is a new long-term incentive plan that enables the Company to implement certain aspects of both its Director and wider Group remuneration policy. The Plan will enable the award of Performance Share Awards and Deferred Bonus Awards to the Company's Executive Directors and wider participants. Restricted Share Awards can also be awarded under the Plan but this type of award will not be granted to Executive Directors. A summary of the key terms of the Plan are set out at Appendix A.

Resolution 4.1 to 4.9 – Reappointment of Directors

In accordance with the 2018 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 88 to 90 of the Annual Report.

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. Annual re-election is consistent with Provision 18 of the 2018 Code which requires all Directors to be subject to annual election or re-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.

When determining whether a director is independent, the Board adheres to the Directors' Test of Independence Policy, which is based on the 2018 Code and the definitions of independence in the Canadian Securities Administrators' National Instrument 52-110 – Audit Committees. The review carried out in 2021 confirms that the Company remains compliant with the provisions of the 2018 Code, whereby at least half the Board comprises non-executive directors who are determined by the Board to be independent. Each of the Non-Executive Directors are considered by the Board to be independent and free from any issues that may impair their ability to present their opinions and or mar their judgement. All the Non-Executive Directors have served on the Board for less than four years with the exception of Mark Bankes who reached his ten-year anniversary in 2021. Mark Bankes continues to be regarded as independent as the Nomination Committee were satisfied that he continued to demonstrate objective judgment and independence of thought by providing constructive challenge to the executive management. However, as a matter of good governance, the Board agreed that Mark Bankes would not serve on the Audit and Risk Committee or Remuneration Committee given his tenure.

No proposed Director of the Company or personal holding company of such person is, as at the date of this Notice, or has been, within 10 years before the date of this Notice, 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 Notice, or has been within 10 years before the date of this Notice, 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 Notice, 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.

No proposed Director of the Company has been subject to:

• (a) any penalties or sanctions imposed by a court relating to securities legislation or by a securities regulatory authority or has entered into a settlement agreement with a securities regulatory authority; or
• (b) any other penalties or sanctions imposed by a court or regulatory body that would likely be considered important to a reasonable security holder in deciding whether to vote for such a proposed Director.

Resolutions 5.1 and 5.2 – Appointment of auditor

Resolutions 5.1 relates to the reappointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as the Company's auditor to hold office until the next annual general meeting of the Company. PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP has been the auditor of the Company since June 2014 and has indicated its willingness to continue in office.

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 385,483,565 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 Notice.

Consistent with the guidance issued by the Investment Association ("IA") 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 770,967,130 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 Notice.

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 the Company's existing performance share plan and the Centamin Incentive Plan.

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, 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 annual general meeting in 2023 or 30 June 2023, whichever is the earlier. As at close of business on the date of this Notice the Company did not hold any treasury shares.

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 the Company's existing performance share plan and the Centamin Incentive Plan.

7 VOTING CONTINUED

Resolution 7 – Disapplication of pre-emption rights

Resolution 7.1 gives 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 IA guidelines described in relation to Resolution 6 above, this authority will permit the Directors to allot:

• (a) shares for cash or sell treasury shares for cash (i) by way of a rights issue or by way of an open offer or other pre-emptive offer of securities otherwise than strictly pro rata (and on the basis that the Directors can make exclusions or such other arrangements as may be appropriate to resolve legal or practical problems, such as fractional entitlements and foreign securities laws), or
• (b) up to 57,822,535 equity securities (as such term is defined in the Articles) representing approximately 5% of the issued ordinary share capital of the Company as at the date of this Notice (the latest practicable date prior to publication of this Notice) otherwise than in connection with an offer to existing shareholders on a pre-emptive basis.

The Directors confirm in relation to Resolution 7.2 that they will only allot shares representing an additional 5% of the issued ordinary share capital of the Company for cash pursuant to the authority referred to in 7.1, where that allotment is in connection with an acquisition or specified capital investment 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 aggregate nominal amount set out in Resolutions 7.1 and 7.2 represents approximately 10% of the Company's issued ordinary share capital as at 4 April 2022, the latest practicable date prior to publication of this Notice. The Directors have no present intention of exercising this authority.

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 Statement of 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, not subject to the right of pre-emption and so any such issues will not count towards the limit set out above.

Resolution 8 – Market Purchases of Ordinary Shares

(a) Share Capital

As at the date of this Notice, the issued share capital of the Company comprised 1,156,450,695 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 in the capital of the Company ("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 115,645,070 Ordinary Shares (being 10% of the issued share capital of the Company as at the date of this Notice) during the period ending on the earlier of the conclusion of the next annual general meeting of the Company and the date by which the next annual general meeting 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 FCA'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 2021, being the date of its latest audited accounts, the Directors consider that if the Repurchase Mandate was 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 Notice.

8 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.

9 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 or re-election of Directors or the appointment of auditors.

10 STATEMENTS OF CORPORATE GOVERNANCE PRACTICES

The Company is incorporated in Jersey, Channel Islands. For the financial year ended 31 December 2021, the Company applied the United Kingdom's 2018 Code.

For further information of the Company's corporate governance practices, please refer to the Corporate Governance Report in the 2021 Annual Report, which contains the full compliance statements with the provisions of the 2018 Code together with details on how the Directors operate, key board roles, board appointments and independence, board balance, managing risks, performance evaluation, attendance at committee and Board meetings, a summary of the roles and responsibilities of the committees and executive remuneration.

11 SHAREHOLDER COMMUNICATION

The Board aims to ensure that shareholders are provided with important information in a timely manner through written and electronic communications. It is for this reason that the Company established a Shareholder Communications Policy, through:

• the AGM and other meetings called to obtain shareholder approval;
• the provision of the Company's website containing all of the above mentioned reports and its constant update and maintenance; and

The Chairman, CEO, CFO and other Directors, communicate with major shareholders on a regular basis in the way of face-toface contact, telephone conversations, and through analyst and broker briefings, to help better understand the views of the shareholders. Any material feedback is then discussed at Board level.

The Board recognises the importance of keeping the market fully informed of the Group's activities and of communicating openly and clearly with all stakeholders. The Company has established a formal Continuous Disclosure Policy to ensure that this occurs. The policy is designed to ensure compliance with the listing rules in all jurisdictions in which the Company is listed.

In accordance with this policy, Company information considered to be material and which requires announcement is announced immediately to the LSE and TSX or to the applicable securities regulatory authorities. All key communications are placed immediately on the Company website, and when necessary, provided directly to shareholders. As a premium listed company on the Main Market of the London Stock Exchange, the Company also complies with the various obligations imposed on it pursuant to the Disclosure Guidance and the Transparency Rules.

12 CANADIAN – FOREIGN ISSUER

As at 1 January 2022 the Company re-confirms that it is a "designated foreign issuer" within the meaning of the National Instrument 71-102 – Continuous Disclosure and Other Exemptions Relating to Foreign Issuers and is subject to the foreign regulatory requirements of the London Stock Exchange and the FCA. As such, the Company is exempt from certain requirements otherwise imposed on reporting issuers in Canada. This status means that, in accordance with the rules of the London Stock Exchange, the preparation of quarterly financial statements and MD&A have not been prepared since 2020. Quarterly preliminary costs and production are, however, published following each quarter end.

NOTICE OF MEETING 2022 APPENDIX A – SUMMARY OF KEY TERMS OF THE SHARE PLANS

APPENDIX A – SUMMARY OF KEY TERMS OF THE SHARE PLANS

THE CENTAMIN INCENTIVE PLAN (THE "PLAN")

It is proposed that the Company will adopt the Plan and seek approval for the grant of Performance Share Awards and Deferred Bonus Awards to executive Directors of the Company and other participants, with Restricted Share Awards eligible to be granted to participants other than executive Directors. For completeness, a full summary of the principal terms of the Plan is set out below.

Administration	The Plan will be administered by the Remuneration Committee
Eligibility	Employees (including Executive Directors) of the Company, any of its subsidiaries or any other entity which is wholly consolidated into the Company's group will be eligible to participate in the Plan.
Nature of the Plan and Form of Awards	It is intended that the Plan will be used annually to grant "Performance Share Awards" to the Executive Directors and certain other senior executives.
	"Restricted Share Awards" may be granted to other employees (including members of executive management) as the Remuneration Committee decides. An Executive Director of the Company may not be granted a Restricted Share Award.
	"Deferred Bonus Awards" will enable Executive Directors and other senior executives to defer some or all of their bonus into ordinary shares in the Company (for the purpose of the summary of the Plan in this Appendix A, "Shares").
	Performance Share Awards must be granted subject to performance targets.
	Restricted Share Awards may be granted subject to performance targets albeit this is not anticipated in practice. Where Restricted Share Awards are granted, it is expected that award levels will be lower than if Performance Share Awards were granted (e.g. reduced by 50%) to reflect that fact that if these awards are granted without performance targets, they will be more valuable than Performance Share Awards. The ability to grant these awards is considered important given the need to retain executive talent in the mining sector where these types of awards are common practice.
	Form of awards
	Awards may be granted in the form of:-
	• nil (or nominal) cost options to acquire Shares; or
	• contingent rights to receive Shares; or • cash-based awards.
Individual Limits	The Plan contains an individual limit which provides that the market value of Shares subject to a Performance Share Award and/or a Restricted Share Award that may be awarded to any one participant in any financial year of the Company cannot exceed 250 per cent of the participant's annual base salary.
	In practice, other than in exceptional circumstances or where the Directors' remuneration policy includes a higher limit for Performance Share Awards, the individual limit is not expected to exceed 150 per cent of the participant's annual base salary.
	Where Restricted Share Awards are granted, it is expected that these will be reduced vis-à-vis Performance Share Awards where there is no performance target applied to the awards.
	In the case of Shares awarded in respect of Deferred Bonus Awards, the market value that may be awarded to any one participant in any financial year of the Company cannot exceed 100 per cent of the participant's annual bonus for the preceding financial year with Deferred Bonus Awards being granted in lieu of cash bonus awards.

NOTICE OF MEETING 2022 APPENDIX A – SUMMARY OF KEY TERMS OF THE SHARE PLANS CONTINUED

THE CENTAMIN INCENTIVE PLAN (THE "PLAN") CONTINUED

Source of shares and dilution limits	Awards may be satisfied by newly issued Shares, Shares purchased in the market by an employee benefit trust or by the transfer of Shares held in treasury.
	At any time, the total number of Shares which have been issued in the previous 10 years or remain issuable pursuant to grants made under the Plan and under any other employees' share scheme established by the Company may not exceed 10 per cent of the Shares in issue at that time. At any time, the total number of Shares which have been issued in the previous 10 years or remain issuable pursuant to grants made under the Plan and under any other discretionary employees' share scheme established by the Company may not exceed 5 per cent of the Shares in issue at that time.
	Grant of Awards	Awards may be granted during the 42 days immediately following approval of the Plan by shareholders and thereafter:
• within 42 days following the announcement by the Company of its results for any period; • within 42 days after the approval by shareholders of a new or amended Directors' remuneration policy; • within 28 days of a person first joining the Company's group; or
• subject to any relevant restrictions on dealings in Shares, on any other day which the Remuneration Committee determines that circumstances have arisen which justify the grant of an award.
No awards may be made more than ten years after the approval of the Plan by shareholders. No payment will be required for the grant of an award.
Performance targets	Performance Share Awards Performance Share Awards will always be subject to performance targets. It is intended that Performance Share Awards granted in 2022 will be subject to performance targets relating to total shareholder return (TSR) relative to the FTSE Gold Mines Index, free cash flow targets and gold production targets. More particularly, the targets to be applied to the award in 2022 are expected to be as follows:
						Metric
	Relative TSR vs FTSE Gold Mines Index (the Index)		50%	Performance equal to the Index	Annual out-performance of the Index by 10% p.a.
		2024 Free cash flow	\$ million	25%	35	70
	2024 Gold production	'000 ounces	25%	450	500
	Notes:
	• The Company's TSR performance will be assessed against the FTSE Gold Mines Index.
	• The Remuneration Committee will assess performance based on free cash flow generated over the Sukari Concession Agreement in 2024.
	• Free cash flow is a Non-GAAP measure and the Remuneration Committee will apply a retrospective adjustment for any non-sustaining capex that has not been considered as part of the estimate. Dividends payable to CEY shareholders have not been included in this estimate. The Remuneration Committee will consider an adjustment at the time of the vested award if the average annual gold price in 2023 is outside a 5% range of the budgeted estimate of \$1,650/oz in the calculation of the estimated Free Cash Flow in 2024.
	•			The Remuneration Committee will assess performance based on gold produced in 2024 over the Sukari concession.

For Performance Share Awards granted in future years, the Remuneration Committee will review whether the performance measures/targets remain appropriate and sufficiently challenging taking into account the performance of the business and shareholders' interests and may set different, albeit similarly challenging, targets for awards in future years.

Performance targets	Discretion to adjust vesting levels
CONTINUED	The Remuneration Committee has the discretion to adjust the number of Shares that vest to ensure that the vesting outcome is appropriate in light of the underlying business performance of the Company's group and/ or wider circumstances.
	Amendments
	The Remuneration Committee may amend a performance target if an event (or events) take place that result in the target, in the opinion of the Remuneration Committee, no longer fulfilling the originally intended purpose of the target. The amended performance target shall not be materially more or less demanding to satisfy than the original performance target was when first set.
Vesting of awards	Performance Share Awards
	Performance Share Awards will normally vest on the third anniversary of grant, subject to (i) the awardholder remaining in service with the Company's group, and (ii) satisfaction of the performance targets.
	Restricted Share Awards
	Restricted Share Awards will normally vest on the third anniversary of grant (or on such dates as the Remuneration Committee may determine on or before the grant of the awards), subject to the award holder remaining in service with the Company's group.
	Post-Vesting Holding Period
	Performance Share Awards (and, if the Remuneration Committee so decides, Restricted Share Awards) will be subject to a post-vesting holding period of two years. The Remuneration Committee may decide not to apply the post-vesting holding period to participants other than Executive Directors. It is currently intended that the post-vesting holding period will prevent participants from selling any Shares received pursuant to their award (other than those sold to raise funds to discharge tax liabilities) until the fifth anniversary of grant. It is also currently intended that the post-vesting holding period will apply notwithstanding that the awardholder has ceased employment with the Company's group.
	Deferred Bonus Awards
	Deferred Bonus Awards will vest two years from grant (or on such later dates as the Remuneration Committee may determine on or before the grant of the awards) subject to continued employment with the Company's group.
Leaving employment	If a participant leaves employment with the Company's group, his award will lapse unless he is a "good leaver".
	A participant will be a "good leaver" if the reason for leaving is death, ill-health, injury, disability, redundancy, retirement, the transfer of the employing business or company, or otherwise at the discretion of the Remuneration Committee.
	If the participant is a good leaver then:
	• any Performance Share Awards or Restricted Share Awards shall vest on the date on which they would have vested had the cessation not occurred subject to any performance targets being satisfied and, unless the Remuneration Committee determines otherwise, taking into account a time pro-rata reduction; and • any Deferred Bonus Award shall vest in full on the date on which it would have vested had the cessation not occurred unless the Committee determines otherwise in exceptional circumstances (e.g. death).

NOTICE OF MEETING 2022 APPENDIX A – SUMMARY OF KEY TERMS OF THE SHARE PLANS CONTINUED

THE CENTAMIN INCENTIVE PLAN (THE "PLAN") CONTINUED
Recovery and withholding	The Plan contains recovery and withholding provisions, which the Remuneration Committee may operate until three years after vesting if:
	• the Company materially misstated its financial results for any reason;
	• there has been an error or miscalculation as to the number of Shares placed under, or received pursuant to, an award;
	• the awardholder has committed an act (or acts) amounting to gross misconduct leading to termination of the awardholder's employment;
	• circumstances of corporate failure have arisen; or
	• the Company, another member of the Company's group or the relevant business unit for which the awardholder works, has suffered serious reputational damage (including, without limitation, as a result of a material health and safety event).
	If the Remuneration Committee decides to operate the recovery and withholding provisions, it may:
	• reduce the amount of any future annual bonus; and/or
	• reduce the number of Shares under any share award; and/or
	• require the awardholder to make a payment to the Company; and/or
	• require the awardholder to forfeit any Shares they hold including those subject to a post-vesting holding period.
	The Remuneration Committee may also reduce the number of Shares under an award granted under the Plan to give effect to any recovery and withholding provision contained in any other incentive plan operated by the Company's group.
Corporate events	In the event of a takeover of the Company, awards shall vest early.
	Performance Share Awards and Restricted Share Awards shall vest subject to the satisfaction of any performance targets and, unless the Remuneration Committee determines otherwise, taking into account a time pro rata reduction.
	Deferred Bonus Awards shall vest in full.
	In the event of a demerger, delisting, special dividend or other event, which, in the opinion of the Remuneration Committee, may affect the current or future value of an award to a material extent the Remuneration Committee, may allow awards to vest on the basis described above. Awards will not normally vest on an internal reorganisation.
Dividend equivalents	An award may be made on terms that the participant will be entitled to receive additional Shares with a value equal to the aggregate dividends in respect of which the ex-dividend date occurred between the award date and the date of vesting on the vested number of Shares as if the participant had been the legal owner of such Shares during that time. The calculation of the number of Shares to be so received may assume the reinvestment of dividends. Alternatively, the Remuneration Committee may decide to deliver the dividend equivalent in cash.
Adjustment of awards	If there is any variation of the Company's share capital, or in the event of a demerger or payment of a special dividend or similar event which would otherwise materially affect the value of an award, the Remuneration Committee may adjust the number of Shares under award and the exercise price (if any).
Rights attaching to Shares and transferability	Shares allotted or transferred under the Plan will rank alongside shares of the same class then in issue. The Company will apply to the Financial Conduct Authority and/or the Toronto Stock Exchange for the listing of any newly issued Shares. Awards are not transferable (except on death) and are not pensionable benefits.

Amendment	The Remuneration Committee may amend the Plan in any respect. However, the provisions governing
	eligibility, equity dilution, individual participation limits, the basis for determining the rights of participants
	to acquire Shares or to receive cash and the adjustments that may be made following a variation of capital
	cannot be altered to the advantage of existing or new participants without the prior approval of shareholders
	in general meeting. There is an exception for minor amendments to benefit the administration of the Plan, to
	take account of a change in legislation or to obtain or maintain favourable tax, exchange control or regulatory
	treatment for participants in the Plan or for any member of the Company's group.

This summary does not form part of the rules of the Plan and should not be taken as affecting the interpretation of the detailed terms and conditions of the rules of the Plan. The Remuneration Committee reserves the right up to the date of the annual general meeting to make such amendments and additions to the rules of the Plan as it sees fit provided that such amendments do not conflict in any material respect with this summary.
