ANNUAL MEETING OF FINNING INTERNATIONAL INC. NOTICE AND ACCESS NOTIFICATION TO SHAREHOLDERS

You are receiving this notification as Finning International Inc. (the “Corporation”) is utilizing the notice and access model for delivery of meeting materials to its shareholders. Under notice and access, shareholders will receive a proxy or voting instruction form enabling them to vote at the Corporation’s meeting. However, instead of a paper copy of the Management Proxy Circular, shareholders receive this notice with information on how they may access the Management Proxy Circular electronically. The use of this alternative method of delivery is more environmentally friendly and cost effective.

This year, shareholders will attend our virtual only annual meeting online and will vote online, or by proxy at the meeting. Please refer to the section “How to vote” in the Corporation’s 2020 Management Proxy Circular for details on how to vote online or by proxy at the meeting.
