Notice and Access

The Corporation has elected to use the notice and access process (“ Notice and Access ”) under National Instrument 54-101 – Communications with Beneficial Owners of Securities of a Reporting Issuer (“ NI 54-101 ”) and National Instrument 51-102 – Continuous Disclosure Obligations , for distribution of the Information Circular and other meeting materials to registered shareholders of the Corporation and to non-registered beneficial shareholders of the Corporation. Notice and Access allows issuers to post electronic versions of meeting materials, including management information circulars, annual financial statements and management discussion and analysis, online, via SEDARPLUS and one other website, rather than mailing paper copies of such meeting materials to shareholders. The Corporation anticipates that utilizing the Notice and Access process will substantially reduce both postage and printing costs.

Pursuant to an exemption obtained by the Corporation under the Canada Business Corporations Act, the Corporation is using the notice-and-access provisions under National Instrument 54-101 – Communication with Beneficial Owners of Securities of a Reporting Issuer and National Instrument 51-102 – Continuous Disclosure Obligations of the Canadian Securities Administrators (the “ CSA ”) to provide shareholders with electronic access to the Notice of Meeting, Management Proxy Circular, audited financial statements of the Corporation for the year ended December 31, 2023 and the accompanying management’s discussion and analysis (collectively, the “ Meeting Materials ”) instead of mailing paper copies. The notice-and-access provisions are a set of rules developed by the CSA that reduce

the volume of materials that must be physically mailed to shareholders by allowing the Corporation to post its Meeting Materials online. The Meeting Materials are available on the Corporation’s website at www.inventusmining.com and under the Corporation’s profile on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca. The use of the notice-and-access provisions expedites shareholders’ receipt of Meeting Materials, is environmentally friendly and reduces costs to the Corporation.

To request a paper copy of the Meeting Materials by mail or to receive additional information about notice-and-access, shareholders can call the Corporation at (416) 792-1508 or email info@inventusmining.com. There is no cost to you for requesting a paper copy of the Meeting Materials. Any shareholder wishing to request a paper copy of the Meeting Materials should do so by 4:00 p.m. ET on August 23, 2024 (in order to receive and review the Meeting Materials and submit their vote by 10:00 a.m. ET on September 4, 2024, as set out in the Proxy or voting instruction form accompanying this Notice).

DATED this 24[th] day of July, 2024.

BY ORDER OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF INVENTUS MINING CORP.
