Shareholder and Voting Information

This Management Information Circular is furnished in connection with the solicitation of proxies by the management of McCoy Global Inc. (the "Corporation" or "McCoy Global") for use at the Annual General Meeting of the holders (the "Shareholders") of common shares (the "Common Shares") in the capital of the Corporation to be held at the River Cree Resort and Casino, 300 East Lapotac Boulevard in the Enoch Cree Nation, Alberta on Thursday, the 14th day of May, 2026, at 8:00 a.m. MDT, or at any adjournment thereof (the "Meeting"), for the purposes set forth in the enclosed Notice of Meeting. The information contained herein is given as of April 1, 2026 (the "Effective Date"), except where otherwise indicated. There is enclosed herewith a form of proxy for use at the Meeting. The Corporation's annual consolidated financial statements to be presented at the Meeting are available on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca and www.mccoyglobal.com/investors. Each Shareholder who is entitled to attend at meetings of shareholders is encouraged to participate in the Meeting and Shareholders are urged to vote in person or by proxy on matters to be considered.

Although it is expected that the solicitation of proxies will be primarily by mail, proxies may also be solicited personally or by telephone, facsimile or other proxy solicitation services. In addition to the use of mail, proxies may be solicited by personal interviews, personal delivery, telephone, or any form of electronic communication or by directors, officers and employees of the Corporation who will not be directly compensated, therefore. All costs of this solicitation will be borne by the Corporation.

In accordance with National Instrument 54-101 – Communications with Beneficial Owners of Securities of a Reporting Issuer ("NI 54-101"), arrangements have been made with brokerage houses and other intermediaries, clearing agencies, custodians, nominees and fiduciaries to forward solicitation materials to the beneficial owners of the Common Shares held of record by such persons and the Corporation may reimburse such persons for reasonable fees and disbursements incurred by them in doing so. The costs thereof will be borne by the Corporation.

1. Appointment and Revocation of Proxies

The persons named (the "Management Designees") in the enclosed form of proxy have been selected by the board of directors of the Corporation (the "Board" or "Board of Directors") and have indicated their willingness to represent as proxy for the Shareholder who appoints them. A Shareholder has the right to designate a person (whom need not be a Shareholder) other than the Management Designees to represent him or her at the Meeting. Such right may be exercised by inserting in the space provided for that purpose on the proxy the name of the person to be designated and by deleting therefrom the names of the Management Designees, or by completing another proper form of proxy and delivering the same to the transfer agent of the Corporation. Such Shareholder should notify the nominee of the appointment, obtain the nominee's consent to act as proxy and should provide instructions on how the Shareholder's Common Shares are to be voted. The nominee should bring personal identification with him or her to the Meeting. In any case, the form of proxy should be dated and executed by the Shareholder or an attorney authorized in writing, with proof of such authorization attached, where an attorney executed the proxy form or, if the Shareholder is a corporation, under its corporate seal by an officer or attorney thereof duly authorized.

A form of proxy will not be valid for the Meeting or any adjournment thereof unless it is completed and delivered to the Corporation's transfer agent, Computershare Trust Company of Canada, Proxy Department, 14th floor, 320 Bay Street, Toronto, Ontario M5H 4A6 at least forty-eight (48) hours, excluding Saturdays, Sundays and holidays, before the Meeting or any adjournment thereof. Late proxies may be accepted or rejected by the Chair of the Meeting in the Chair's discretion, and the Chair is under no obligation to accept or reject any particular late proxy.

A Shareholder who has given a proxy may revoke it as to any matter upon which a vote has not already been cast pursuant to the authority conferred by the proxy. In addition to revocation in any other manner permitted by law, a proxy may be revoked by depositing an instrument in writing executed by the Shareholder or the Shareholder's authorized attorney in writing, or, if the Shareholder is a corporation, under its corporate seal by


an officer or attorney thereof duly authorized, with Computershare Trust Company of Canada, Proxy Department, 14th floor, 320 Bay Street, Toronto, Ontario M5H 4A6, at any time up to and including the last business day preceding the date of the Meeting, or any adjournment thereof at which the proxy is to be used, or by depositing the instrument in writing with the Chair of such Meeting on the day of the Meeting, or any adjournment thereof. In addition, a proxy may be revoked by the Shareholder personally attending the Meeting and voting its Common Shares.

2. Advice to Beneficial Shareholders

The information set forth in this section is of significant importance to many Shareholders, as a substantial number of Shareholders do not hold Common Shares in their own name. Shareholders who hold their Common Shares through their brokers, intermediaries, trustees or other persons, or who otherwise do not hold their Common Shares in their own name (referred to in this Management Information Circular as "Beneficial Shareholders") should note that only proxies deposited by Shareholders who appear on the records maintained by the Corporation's registrar and transfer agent as registered holders of Common Shares will be recognized and acted upon at the Meeting. If Common Shares are listed in an account statement provided to a Beneficial Shareholder by a broker, those Common Shares will, in all likelihood, not be registered in the shareholder's name. Such Common Shares will more likely be registered under the name of the Shareholder's broker or an agent of that broker. In Canada, the vast majority of such shares are registered under the name of CDS & Co. (the registration name for The Canadian Depositary for Securities Limited, which acts as nominee for many Canadian brokerage firms). Common Shares held by brokers (or their agents or nominees) on behalf of a broker's client can only be voted (for or against resolutions) at the direction of the Beneficial Shareholder. Without specific instructions, brokers and their agents and nominees are prohibited from voting shares for the broker's clients. Therefore, each Beneficial Shareholder should ensure that voting instructions are communicated to the appropriate person well in advance of the Meeting.

Existing regulatory policy requires brokers and other intermediaries to seek voting instructions from Beneficial Shareholders in advance of shareholders' meetings. The various brokers and other intermediaries have their own mailing procedures and provide their own return instructions to clients, which should be carefully followed by Beneficial Shareholders in order to ensure that their Common Shares are voted at the Meeting. The form of proxy supplied to a Beneficial Shareholder by its broker (or the agent of the broker) is substantially similar to the proxy provided directly to registered Shareholders by the Corporation. However, its purpose is limited to instructing the registered Shareholder (i.e., the broker or agent of the broker) how to vote on behalf of the Beneficial Shareholder. The vast majority of brokers now delegate responsibility for obtaining instructions from clients to Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. ("Broadridge") in Canada. Broadridge typically prepares a machine-readable voting instruction form, mails those forms to Beneficial Shareholders, and asks Beneficial Shareholders to return the forms to Broadridge, or otherwise communicate voting instructions to Broadridge (by way of the Internet or telephone, for example). Broadridge then tabulates the results of all instructions received and provides appropriate instructions respecting the voting of Common Shares to be represented at the Meeting. A Beneficial Shareholder who receives a Broadridge voting instruction form cannot use that form to vote Common Shares directly at the Meeting. The voting instruction forms must be returned to Broadridge (or instructions respecting the voting of Common Shares must otherwise be communicated to Broadridge) well in advance of the Meeting in order to have the Common Shares voted. Additionally, there are two kinds of Beneficial Shareholders: (i) those who object to their name being made known to the issuers of securities which they own, known as objecting beneficial owners or "OBOs"; and (ii) those who do not object to their name being known to the issuers of securities which they own, known as non-objecting beneficial owners or "NOBOs".

Although a Beneficial Shareholder may not be recognized directly at the Meeting for the purposes of voting Common Shares registered in the name of the Beneficial Shareholder's broker, a Beneficial Shareholder may attend the Meeting as proxyholder for the registered Shareholder and vote the Common Shares in that capacity. Beneficial Shareholders who wish to attend the Meeting and indirectly vote their Common Shares as proxyholder for the registered Shareholder, should enter their own names in the blank space on the form of proxy provided to them and return the same to their broker (or the broker's agent) in accordance with the instructions provided by such broker.

All references to Shareholders in this Management Information Circular and the accompanying instrument of proxy and Notice of Meeting are to registered Shareholders unless specifically stated otherwise.

This Management Information Circular and the accompanying instrument of proxy and Notice of Meeting may have been sent directly by the Corporation, rather than through an intermediary, to non-objecting beneficial owners under National Instrument 54-101. These securityholder materials are being sent to both registered and non-registered owners of the Common Shares. If you are a non-registered owner, and the Corporation or its agent has sent these materials directly to you, your name and address and information about your holdings of Common Shares, 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 Corporation (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.

3. Voting of Proxies

Each Shareholder may instruct the Shareholder's proxy how to vote the Shareholder's Common Shares by completing the blanks on the instrument of proxy. All Common Shares represented at the Meeting by properly executed proxies will be voted for or against or withheld from voting (including the voting on any ballot) in respect of each proposed resolution, as the case may be, and where a choice with respect to any matter to be acted upon has been specified in the proxy, the Common Shares represented by the proxy will be voted in accordance with such specification. In the absence of any such specification as to voting on the instrument of proxy or any other form of proxy, the Management Designees, if named as proxy, will vote the Common Shares represented by such proxy in favour of the matters set out therein.

If you decide to appoint the directors and/or officers of the Corporation named in the enclosed proxy as your proxyholders, and do not indicate how you want to vote, they will vote as follows:

  • ☑ FOR electing each of the six director nominees recommended by management
  • ☑ FOR appointing PricewaterhouseCoopers LP as auditors at a remuneration to be fixed by the Directors

The enclosed instrument of proxy confers discretionary authority upon the Management Designees, or other persons named as proxy, with respect to amendments to or variations of matters identified in the Notice of Meeting and any other matters which may properly come before the Meeting. As of the Effective Date, the Corporation is not aware of any amendments to, variations of or other matters which may come before the Meeting. In the event that other matters come before the Meeting, the Management Designees intend to vote in accordance with the judgment of management of the Corporation.

The Board recommends a vote FOR the appointment of the auditors.

Business to be Transacted

To the knowledge of the Board of Directors, the only matters to be brought before the Meeting are those matters set forth in the accompanying Notice of Meeting.

1. Election of Directors

The affairs of the Corporation are managed by its Board of Directors. The directors are elected by the Shareholders annually at each annual general meeting of the Shareholders and hold office until the next annual general meeting, or until their successors are duly elected or appointed or until a director vacates the director's office or his or her office is earlier vacated in accordance with the by-laws of the Corporation, or the provisions of the Business Corporations Act (Alberta) (the "ABCA") to which the Corporation is subject.

The Corporation's Corporate Governance Guidelines includes a majority voting policy ("Policy") relating to the election of directors in non-contested elections. Under the Policy, each proxy for the election of directors will permit the Shareholders to vote "For" or "Withhold" each individual director, and any director nominee who receives from the votes cast a greater number of "Withhold" votes than "For" votes shall promptly, following the certification of the Shareholder vote, submit his or her resignation from the Board. Absent exceptional circumstances, the Board shall accept the resignation in accordance with the Policy. In accordance with the Corporation's By-law No. 1, for the forthcoming year, the Board has determined that the Board of Directors shall consist of six (6) members. The persons named below have been nominated for election and have consented to such nomination. The Board has adopted a policy stipulating that each Director should be elected by a majority of votes cast and that forms of proxy for the election of Directors shall enable Shareholders to vote for each nominee on an individual basis.

The Corporation's By-law No. 1 contains advance notice provisions (the "Advance Notice By-law"), which provides Shareholders, the Board and management with a clear framework for nominating Directors. The Advance Notice By-law helps ensure orderly business at Shareholder meetings by effectively preventing a Shareholder from putting forth Director nominations from the floor of a meeting without prior notice. The Advance Notice By-law does not affect nominations made pursuant to a "proposal" made in accordance with the ABCA or a requisition of a meeting of Shareholders made pursuant to the ABCA. The Advance Notice By-law is available on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca and on our website at www.mccoyglobal.com/investors.

As of the date of this Management Information Circular, the Corporation has not received any notice of a Shareholder's intention to nominate Directors at the Meeting pursuant to the Advance Notice By-law.

Unless otherwise directed, it is the intention of the Management Designees, if named as proxy, to vote for the election of each of the persons named in the following table to the Board of Directors. Management does not contemplate that any of such nominees will be unable to serve as directors; however, if for any reason any of the proposed nominees do not stand for election or are unable to serve as such, proxies held by Management Designees will be voted for another nominee in their discretion unless the Shareholder has specified in his or her form of proxy that his or her Common Shares are to be withheld from voting in the election of directors.

Management recommends that Shareholders vote FOR each of the following six (6) nominees

Share Ownership Requirements

The Corporation implemented Share Ownership Requirements on March 9, 2023.

Requirements

Each executive and independent director of the Corporation is expected to own Common Shares based on his or her annual compensation during the time that he or she is an executive or member of the Board, as the case may be. The requirements for share ownership set forth below are designed to further align the interests of the executives and independent directors with those of the Shareholders.

The CEO is required to hold Common Shares equal to a value of at least three times the CEO's annual salary. Each independent director is required to hold Common Shares equal to a value of at least three times the cash portion of the director's annual Board and committee retainers, based on the greater of (a) the value of the Common Shares using the previous December's volume weighted average closing price of the Common Shares on the Toronto Stock Exchange (the "TSX"), and (b) the fair market value of the Common Shares on the date such Common Shares were acquired.

Each executive and independent director must be in compliance with these Common Share ownership requirements within the latter of March 9, 2028 and five years of his or her election or appointment to the executive team or Board, and must remain in compliance until retirement or termination.

Quality Shares Owned

Common Shares or share-based awards that counts towards satisfaction of the foregoing Share Ownership Requirements include:

  • Common Share purchased in the open market;
  • Vested portion of DSUs awarded under the DSU Plan;
  • Options exercised for Common Shares and held by the executive;
  • Common Shares owned by the director or executive or his or her immediate family members residing in the same household;
  • Common Shares held in trust for the benefit of the director or executive or his or her family; and
  • Common Shares held by directors or executives in benefit plans, such as RRSP or 401(k) plans.

For the avoidance of doubt, Common Shares underlying unexercised Options, whether or not vested, Restricted Shares or unexercised share appreciation rights will not be included in determining ownership levels.

Exceptions

These Share Ownership Requirements may be waived at the discretion of the HRC&G Committee in exceptional circumstances if compliance would create severe hardship due to unique financial circumstances or would prevent a director or executive from complying with a court order or legal requirement.

Administration and Enforcement

The HRC&G Committee is responsible for the administration and enforcement of these Share Ownership Requirements and will assess compliance therewith on a periodic basis, at the time determined by the HRC&G Committee. The Board may, in consultation with the HRC&G Committee, amend the terms of these Share Ownership Requirements from time to time to reflect legal and business developments warranting a change.

The total number of Common Shares above excludes any Common Shares purchased through the Corporation's Employee Share Purchase Plan (see "Other Forms of Compensation - Employee Share Purchase Plan") for the period of January 1, 2026 to April 1, 2026.

(2) The value of Common Shares, Restricted Shares and deferred share units ("DSUs") was determined by multiplying the number of Common Shares, Restricted Shares and DSUs held by each director by the closing price of the Common Shares on the TSX on April 1, 2026, of $2.38.

(3) The value of stock options was determined by multiplying the difference between the option's exercise price and the closing price of Common Shares on the TSX on April 1, 2026, of $2.38 by the number of options outstanding, for any in-the-money options.

(4) The value of Performance Share Units ("PSUs") was determined by multiplying the number of PSU's by the closing price of the Common Shares on the TSX on April 1, 2026 of $2.38, then multiplying the result by the applicable performance multiplier.

2. Financial Statements

The Board has approved the audited comparative consolidated financial statements of the Corporation for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, copies of which were posted on our website at mccoyglobal.com/investors and on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca on March 6, 2026. Financial information related to the Corporation for the year ended December 31, 2025 is provided in these financial statements and the related Management's Discussion and Analysis.

3. Appointment and Remuneration of Auditors

The Shareholders will be asked to vote for the re-appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, as auditors of the Corporation. Unless directed otherwise by a proxyholder, or such authority is withheld, the Management Designees, if named as proxy, intend to vote the Common Shares represented by any such proxy in favour of a resolution appointing PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, Chartered Accountants, of Edmonton, Alberta, as auditors for the Corporation for the ensuing year, to hold office until the close of the next annual general meeting of shareholders or until PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, Chartered Accountants, is removed from office or resigns, and authorizing the directors to fix the compensation of the auditors.

We maintain independence from the external auditors through audit committee oversight, a robust regulatory framework in Canada, including the requirement to rotate the lead audit partner at least every seven years, and PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP own internal independence procedures. The Audit Committee also conducts a formal review of the external auditors every year.


The Audit Committee believes there are benefits to having long-tenured auditors, including higher work quality because of the auditors' institutional knowledge of our business and favourable fee structures because of the efficiencies gained from experience. In addition, if we brought in new auditors, we would spend significantly more time and resources helping them become familiar with the business.

If you are looking for more information about our auditors, including the fees paid, please see our Annual Information Form for the year ended December 31, 2025, under the heading "Audit Committee".

Management and the Board recommend that Shareholders vote FOR the appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LP as auditor of the Corporation.

4. Other Business

While there is no business other than that mentioned in the accompanying Notice of Meeting to be presented for action by the Shareholders at the Meeting, it is intended that the proxies hereby solicited will be voted upon any other matters and proposals that may properly come before the Meeting, or any adjournment(s) thereof, in accordance with the discretion of the persons authorized to act thereunder.

Compensation Discussion & Analysis

Human Resources, Compensation & Governance Committee

In 2018, the Corporation's Human Resources and Compensation Committee and Governance Committee were amalgamated as the Human Resources, Compensation & Governance Committee (the "HRC&G Committee").

One of the mandates of the HRC&G Committee is to assist the Board of Directors in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities including the following:

  • Appointment, performance, and compensation of the CEO;
  • Compensation structure and succession planning for key executive positions; and
  • Provide guidance on the Corporation's People and Culture strategy and alignment with the overall strategic plan of the Corporation.

In addition, the Board of Directors, with oversight by the HRC&G Committee, assesses risk associated with executive compensation by actively reviewing compensation design and compensation decision-making processes. The Board, through the HRC&G Committee's workplan and charter, assesses and determines risk and risk level related to compensation programs embedded in the Corporation's business model as well as any short-term compensation gain for executives that may create excessive risk to the Corporation.

The HRC&G Committee is satisfied that:

  • The Corporation's policy and plans on compensation do not encourage any Named Executive Officer (NEO) or employee who is in a senior management or leadership position to take inappropriate or excessive risks; and
  • There were not any identified risks arising from the Corporation's compensation plans or policies that would have had any negative or material impact on the Corporation.

The Corporation's compensation practices and plans are aligned with the overall business strategy and are designed in accordance with progressive people and culture practices that are focused on engagement, retention, and performance.

Further information on the HRC&G Committee and its membership is available under the heading "Statement of Corporate Governance Practices" in this Management Information Circular.

Compensation of Directors

The Corporation's director compensation program is designed to address the following:

  • Complexity
    The complexity of the Corporation's business and operations in multiple geographic markets
  • Competitiveness
    Attracting and retaining knowledgeable and skilled directors is a challenge in today's economic, political and social climate
  • Accountability
    Increasing public and shareholder demands creates more accountability, governance, and responsibility
  • Contribution
    The contribution made by the director in his or her time commitment and expertise
  • Growth
    The Corporation has a strategic plan emphasizing growth

Benchmarking Practices

The Corporation uses publicly available salary information to form the base comparison and review of director compensation.

In 2025, the HRC&G Committee engaged Hugessen Consulting Inc. (Hugessen) as its independent advisor for research and analysis on executive compensation matters. Hugessen provides insights on general compensation matters, competitiveness of pay levels, risks relating to compensation design, insights into market trends, and advice about technical matters. The HRC&G Committee takes this information into account but ultimately makes its own recommendations and decisions. The HRC&G Committee and management regularly assess the independence of the compensation consultant, and in 2025 confirmed that Hugessen's work has not raised any conflicts of interest. Total fees paid to Hugessen in 2025, pertaining to Directors' compensation matters were $24,830 (2024 - nil$).

Compensation levels for 2025 and as proposed for 2026, were against the following 12 companies:

Company Name Industry Headquarters
Odfjell Technology Ltd. Oil and Gas Drilling United Kingdom
ACT Energy Technologies Ltd. Oil and Gas Drilling Canada
Drilling Tools International Corporation Oil and Gas Equipment and Services United States
Profire Energy, Inc. Oil and Gas Equipment and Services United States

Director Compensation

Annual Retainers and Board Meeting Fees

For fiscals years prior to 2026, annual retainers paid to the members of the Board of Directors who are independent directors of the Corporation were as follows:

Annual Retainer ($)
Board Chair 50,000
Director, other than Board Chair 30,000
Committee Chair
- Audit 8,000
- Human Resources, Compensation & Governance 8,000
- Strategy and Capital Allocation 50,000
Committee Member
- Audit 7,000
- Human Resources, Compensation & Governance 7,000
- Strategy and Capital Allocation 7,000

For fiscal years prior to 2026, board meeting fees were paid to the members of the Board of Directors who are independent directors of the Corporation on the following basis, for meetings greater than four hours in duration. Meetings of less than four hours in duration are paid at 50% of the stated meeting participation fee.

Stated Meeting Participation Fee ($)
Board Meeting 1,000
Committee Meeting:
- Audit 1,200
- Human Resources, Compensation & Governance 1,000
- Strategy and Capital Allocation 1,000

Executive officers of the Corporation who also act as directors of the Corporation do not receive any compensation for services rendered solely in their capacity as directors. Directors who are US residents are compensated in US dollars. Total cash remuneration earned by non-management directors of the Corporation in their capacity as directors from January 1, 2025, until December 31, 2025, was $381,384. The Corporation also reimburses all directors for related travel and out-of-pocket expenses incurred in the course of carrying out their duties as directors.

Effective January 1, 2026, the Board undertook a comprehensive review of its director compensation program to ensure alignment with current market practices and to support the Corporation's objectives of attracting and retaining qualified directors. As a result of this review, the structure was realigned to simplify the program and enhance transparency. Director meeting fees were eliminated and replaced with higher annual retainers, reflecting prevailing market norms and emphasizing the ongoing strategic and oversight responsibilities of directors rather than meeting attendance. In addition, the mix of annual compensation was adjusted to place greater weight on equity-based awards, further strengthening alignment between directors and shareholders.


Effective January 1, 2026, the Strategy and Capital Allocation Committee was dissolved, and its responsibilities were reallocated among the remaining Board committees to streamline governance and reflect the Corporation's current strategic priorities. Further to the dissolution of the Strategy and Capital Allocation Committee, effective January 1, 2026, Mr. Alex Ryzhikov was appointed Special Advisor, Capital Allocation and Investor Relations to the Corporation for an annual cash retainer of $50,000. In this capacity, Mr. Ryzhikov will continue to serve as an independent director while providing the Board and management with targeted advice on investor relations and capital markets matters. Mr. Ryzhikov will offer insight into institutional investor perspectives, support the refinement of the Corporation's capital markets strategy, assist in assessing market receptivity to strategic initiatives, and help strengthen the Corporation's engagement with current and prospective investors. This advisory role is intended to enhance the Corporation's ability to communicate its strategy, financial performance, and long-term value proposition.

The following table summarizes the director compensation structure effective January 1, 2026.

Annual Cash-based Retainer ($) Annual Equity-based Retainer ($) Meeting Fees Total Compensation ($)
Board Chair 50,000 60,000 - 110,000
Director, other than Board Chair 35,000 50,000 - 85,000

Director Participation in Employee Share Purchase Plan ("ESPP")

Effective March 31, 2023, the Corporation amended its Employee Share Purchase Plan ("ESPP") to allow Director participation. Under the Corporation's ESPP, the Director may contribute from a minimum of 5% to a maximum of 50% of the participant's retainer fees. The Corporation matches a portion of the participant's contributions to a maximum of 5.0% of the annual retainer for Board members. The Corporation's matching obligation is dependent on the Director's contribution years as a participant in the ESPP: less than one year a 33% match; between one and three years a 67% match; between four and seven years a 100% match; and eight years or greater a 133% match. The ESPP is available to all members of the Board of Directors and may, if available, be directed to: a non-registered account; a registered retirement savings plan account; or a registered tax-free savings account. The amounts are considered vested immediately, however the Director is restricted from accessing the Corporation's matching amount for 12 months following the purchase. In addition, the ESPP 'penalizes' transfers or withdrawals prior to five years' service in the ESPP and every five years thereafter. Any transfer or withdrawal of Common Shares from the ESPP will result in the matching level being reset to 33%.

Directors' Deferred Share Unit ("DSU") Plan

Prior to January 1, 2026, while the Deferred Share Unit ("DSU") Plan does not formally distinguish between grant types, it was the Corporation's practice to provide DSUs both as an initial grant upon a director's appointment and as an annual grant to eligible directors. The appointment-related grant, with a value of $50,000 at the time of issuance, was provided to each newly appointed director and vested in full on the third anniversary of the grant date. In addition, eligible directors received an annual grant of DSUs valued at $7,500 at the time of issuance, with one-third vesting on each anniversary of the grant date. Upon ceasing to serve as a director, participants were entitled to a cash payment equal to the number of vested DSUs multiplied by the volume-weighted average trading price of the Corporation's common shares on the TSX for the 20 trading days immediately preceding their departure.

Effective January 1, 2026, DSU awards form a component of each director's annual retainer. Under the revised structure, board members at large receive an annual DSU grant valued at $50,000 at the time of issuance, and the Board Chair receives an annual DSU grant valued at $60,000. One-third of each annual grant vests on each anniversary of the grant date. Upon ceasing to serve as a director, participants are entitled to a cash payment equal to the number of vested DSUs multiplied by the volume-weighted average trading price of the Corporation's common shares on the TSX for the 20 trading days immediately preceding their departure.

Directors' Performance Share Unit ("DPSU") Plan

In conjunction with the formation of the Strategy and Capital Allocation Committee in 2022, the Corporation adopted a directors' performance share unit plan ("DPSU Plan") for its independent directors who are designated as participants by the HRC&G Committee. DPSUs are cash settled and fully vest on December 31st of the third year following the grant date. At the time of vesting, a payout multiplier is applied to each award, dependent on the 20-day volume-weighted average share price of the Common Shares on the TSX on the vesting date. The payout multiplier ranges from zero times (0x) where the Common Share price falls below $2.00 per Common Share on the TSX on the vesting date to four times (4x) where the Common Share price exceeds $4.00 per Common Share on the TSX on the vesting date.

Effective March 6, 2026, the DPSU Plan was dissolved.


Total Compensation of Outside Directors

The table below reflects in detail the total compensation earned by the independent directors during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025:

Fees Earned Share-based Awards(1) Option-based Awards(2) ESPP Matching Contributions Total
Retainer ($) Meeting Participation ($) ($) ($) ($) ($)
Michael Buker(3) 53,120 12,581 - - 1,992 67,693
Katherine Demuth 52,000 12,900 - - 2,336 67,236

Alex Ryzhikov 87,000 11,400 - - 3,908 102,308
William J. Walker(3) 61,508 14,678 - - - 76,186

(1) "Share-Based Award" means an award under an equity incentive plan of equity-based instruments that do not have option-like features, including, for greater certainty, Common Shares, restricted shares, restricted share units, DSUs, DPSUs, phantom shares, phantom share units, common share equivalent units and stock.

(2) "Option-Based Award" means an award under an equity incentive plan of options, including, for greater certainty, stock options, share appreciation rights and similar instruments that have option-like features.

(3) Directors who are residents of the United States are compensated in US dollars for fees earned. US dollar amounts have been converted to Canadian dollars at the average exchange rate in effect for the fiscal year (2025 - 1.3979).

Due to a trading blackout imposed by the Corporation near the end of fiscal 2025, the 2025 annual DSU grants valued at $7,500 that were customarily issued in December could not be granted on their usual schedule. Accordingly, the fiscal 2025 DSU grant was deferred and issued in early 2026 once the blackout was lifted. This deferral was an administrative timing adjustment only and was separate from the revised director compensation structure effective January 1, 2026.

The Board of Directors' philosophy on total rewards is to ensure that the Corporation's executives are rewarded for achievement of the Corporation's strategic plan and financial results. In addition, executive compensation at the Corporation is established based on individual contribution and performance, relevant external labour markets and the following principles:

  • Aligning executive goals to the interests of the Corporation and Shareholders;
  • Motivating and rewarding executives to exceed business objectives, performance, and growth;
  • Providing for the attraction and retention of superior executive talent; and
  • Supports the health and well-being of the executive team members.

Executive Compensation Philosophy

The Corporation's compensation philosophy is designed to balance competitive market positioning with a strong emphasis on performance-driven rewards. While base salary target is positioned at the lower percentile of peers, the Short-Term Incentive Plan (STIP) and Long-Term Incentive Plan (LTIP) are structured for total compensation to meet the market median, with adjustments as necessary to accommodate peer group size. This approach ensures that the Corporation maintains fiscal responsibility while aligning compensation with both the Corporation's performance and individual contributions.

The core belief of this philosophy is that true performance-based incentives are what motivate and retain top executives. By placing a heavier emphasis on STIP and LTIP, the Corporation can reward executives based on


measurable achievements, ensuring that high-performing leaders are compensated fairly for their results. This system not only encourages goal-oriented behavior but also aligns executive success with Shareholder value creation.

Through this structure, the Corporation maintains a lean fixed cost (base salary) while providing meaningful upside potential for strong performance, thereby motivating executives with success and the long-term growth of the Corporation. This performance-based approach ensures that leaders are fully invested in the Corporation's success, fostering a culture of accountability and excellence.

The Corporation does not:

  • Provide "single-trigger" change-of control cash payments;
  • Allow repricing of underwater options; or
  • Provide excessive perquisites.

The Corporation has adopted a clawback policy as follows:

"The board of directors ("Board") of McCoy Global Inc. ("McCoy" or the "Company") has set forth this clawback policy (the "Policy") which specifies the consequences with respect to incentive awards in the event of negligence, fraud or willful misconduct resulting in a restatement of the Company's financial statements. This Policy provides that where there is a restatement of the financial results of the Company for any reason other than a restatement caused by a change in applicable accounting rules or interpretations, and, in connection with such restatement an executive officer engaged in negligence, fraud or willful misconduct, the Board or the Human Resources, Compensation & Governance Committee ("HRCGC") may: (a) require that the executive officer return or repay to the Company, or reimburse the Company for, all or part of the after-tax portion of any excess compensation; and/or (b) cause all or part of any awarded and unpaid or unexercised performance-based compensation (whether vested or unvested) that constitutes excess compensation for such executive officer to be cancelled.

For purposes of this Policy, "excess compensation" means the difference between the amount or value of any performance-based compensation actually paid or awarded to an executive officer and the amount or value that would have been paid or awarded as calculated or determined based on the financial statements of the Company as restated. "Performance-based compensation" includes all bonuses and other incentive compensation that is paid or awarded to any executive officer based in whole or in part on the application of performance criteria or financial metrics measured during the applicable period preceding the applicable restatement as determined by the Board or the HRCGC, and includes incentive compensation awarded or paid in any form, including cash or equity-based, whether vested or unvested."

Share Ownership Requirements

The Corporation implemented Share Ownership Requirements on March 9, 2023.

Requirements

Each executive of the Corporation is expected to own Common Shares based on his or her annual compensation during the time that he or she is an executive. The requirements for share ownership set forth below are designed to further align the interests of the executives with those of the Shareholders.

The CEO is required to hold Common Shares equal to a value of at least three times the CEO's annual salary. Each VP is required to hold Common Shares ("MCB shares") equal to a value of at least two times the VP's annual salary. Each executive must be in compliance with these Common Share ownership requirements within the latter of March 9, 2028 and five years of his or her appointment to the executive team and must remain in compliance until retirement or termination.

Quality Shares Owned

Common Shares or share-based awards that counts towards satisfaction of the foregoing share ownership requirements include:

  • Common Share purchased in the open market;
  • Options exercised for Common Shares and held by the executive;
  • Common Shares owned by the executive or his or her immediate family members residing in the same household;
  • Common Shares held in trust for the benefit of the executive or his or her family; and
  • Common Shares held by executives in benefit plans, such as RRSP or 401(k) plans.

For the avoidance of doubt, Common Shares underlying unexercised Options, whether or not vested, Restricted Shares or unexercised share appreciation rights will not be included in determining ownership levels.

Exceptions

These Share Ownership Requirements may be waived at the discretion of the HRC&G Committee in exceptional circumstances if compliance would create severe hardship due to unique financial circumstances or would prevent a director or executive from complying with a court order or legal requirement.

Administration and Enforcement

The HRC&G Committee is responsible for the administration and enforcement of these Share Ownership Requirements and will assess compliance therewith on a periodic basis, at the time determined by the HRC&G Committee. The Board may, in consultation with the HRC&G Committee, amend the terms of these Share Ownership Requirements from time to time to reflect legal and business developments warranting a change.

Compensation Elements and Positioning

Executive total compensation is defined as base pay, annual bonus program or STIP, and LTIP. The LTIP consists of performance share units, Options and Restricted Shares. The combination of these elements, specifically the STIP and LTIP, provide the executive with reward for the successful execution of the Corporation's strategic plan.


33

Benchmarking Practices

The Corporation uses publicly available salary information to form the base comparison and review of executive compensation.

In 2024, the HRC&G Committee engaged Hugessen Consulting Inc. (Hugessen) as its independent advisor for research and analysis on executive compensation matters. Hugessen provides insights on general compensation matters, competitiveness of pay levels, risks relating to compensation design, insights into market trends, and advice about technical matters. The HRC&G Committee takes this information into account but ultimately makes its own recommendations and decisions. The HRC&G Committee and management regularly assess the independence of the compensation consultant, and in 2024 confirmed that Hugessen's work has not raised any conflicts of interest. Total fees paid to Hugessen pertaining to executive compensation matters in 2025 were nil$ (2024 - $33,346).

Compensation levels for 2024, 2025 and as proposed for 2026, were against the following 12 companies:

Company Name Industry Headquarters
Odfjell Technology Ltd. Oil and Gas Drilling United Kingdom
ACT Energy Technologies Ltd. Oil and Gas Drilling Canada
Drilling Tools International Corporation Oil and Gas Equipment and Services United States
Profire Energy, Inc. Oil and Gas Equipment and Services United States
Tornado Global Hydrovacs Ltd. Construction Machinery and Heavy Transportation Canada
KLX Energy Services Holdings, Inc. Oil and Gas Equipment and Services United States
NCS Multistage Holdings, Inc. Oil and Gas Equipment and Services United States
Nine Energy Services, Inc. Oil and Gas Equipment and Services United States
Stampede Drilling Inc. Oil and Gas Drilling Canada
MIND Technology, Inc. Oil and Gas Equipment and Services United States
Pressure Technologies plc Oil and Gas Equipment and Services United Kingdom
High Arctic Energy Services Inc. Oil and Gas Equipment and Services Canada

Base Salary

Base salaries for identified executive positions are targeted between the lower quartile and median base of the established comparator group. The Corporation conducts periodic reviews of organizations, of the target market, to identify the appropriate base salary for identified positions. Actual base salary for the executives is tied to the position's scope in the organization, overall competency, position complexity, performance, and retention risk.

Non-Equity Incentives

STIP - Annual Bonus Plan

Annual STIP payouts have assigned maximums based on a percentage of salary specific to the executive's position with the Corporation.

2025 2024 2023
Position STIP as a Percentage of Salary when STIP targets are met Maximum STIP as a Percentage of Salary when STIP targets exceed 125% of target STIP as a Percentage of Salary when Budgeted Adjusted EBITDA is Achieved Maximum STIP as a Percentage of Salary when Adjusted EBITDA Exceeds 125% of Budget STIP as a Percentage of Salary when Budgeted Adjusted EBITDA is Achieved Maximum STIP as a Percentage of Salary when Adjusted EBITDA Exceeds 125% of Budget
President & Chief Executive Officer 75% 125% 50% 125% 34.00% 125%
Chief Operating Officer 75% 125% 50% 125% 38.25% 100%
Vice President & Chief Financial Officer 75% 125% 50% 125% 38.25% 100%
Vice President, Products and Engineering 75% 125% 50% 125% n/a n/a

Annual STIP is measured by a combination of financial, organizational and strategic objectives.


For 2025, the financial and organizational objective component of STIP included:

  • An Adjusted EBITDA (net earnings, before depreciation of property, plant and equipment; amortization of intangible assets; income tax expense (recovery); finance charges, net; provisions for excess and obsolete inventory; other losses (gains), net; restructuring charges; share-based compensation; and impairment losses) target;
  • A free cashflow (cash generated from (used in) operations, less cash used in (generated from) investing activities) target;
  • A smart product contribution margin target;
  • A smart product subscription target; and
  • Health, safety and environment targets.

The amount of the STIP award for each financial measure was then determined based on actual financial performance by the Corporation, up to a maximum award for any individual financial measure. Although the executive Short-Term Incentive Plan ("STIP") award for 2025 was approved, payment had not been made as of the effective date of this Circular. Following the significant escalation of conflict in the Middle East and resulting suspension of shipping through the Strait of Hormuz—events that have delayed product deliveries, revenue recognition, and related cash receipts—the Corporation elected to defer STIP payments to preserve financial flexibility. The STIP will be paid at such time as visibility on operating cash flow and working capital improves.

LTIP - Performance Share Unit Plan

The HRC&G Committee, with approval of the Board, established a performance share unit plan (the "PSU Plan") in 2024. The Board has the authority to amend or discontinue the PSU Plan. Performance share units ("PSUs") will be granted to the executives of the Corporation at the discretion of the Board. PSUs are cash settled and vest in equal annual tranches over a three-year vesting period. Upon vesting, a payout multiplier is applied to each award, based on the achievement of Return on Invested Capital (ROIC) targets set for the service year to which the award pertains as listed below:

Performance Criteria: Achievement of Service Year ROIC target Performance Multiplier
Less than 85% of ROIC Target achieved 0x
85% of ROIC Target achieved 0.5x
100% of ROIC Target achieved 1x
125% or greater of ROIC Target achieved 2x

Upon vesting, the PSUs are redeemed for cash based on the market price of any vested award multiplied by the applicable payout multiplier at the time of vesting.

PSUs are established as a component of total compensation, namely the LTIP, and are designed to align the executives with the longer-term interests of the Corporation and the Shareholders. PSUs provide the executives with the opportunity for additional compensation based on achieving the long-term strategy and growth of the Corporation.


As part of its review of executive compensation, the HRC&G Committee recommends to the Board PSUs proposed to be granted to executives. In this review, previous grants of PSUs, Options and Restricted Shares are considered when recommending new grants.

Equity Incentives

Equity incentives, are established as a component of total compensation, namely the LTIP, and are designed to align the executives with the longer-term interests of the Corporation and the Shareholders. Equity incentives provide the executives with the opportunity for additional compensation based on achieving the long-term strategy and growth of the Corporation.

As part of its review of executive compensation, the HRC&G Committee recommends to the Board Options and Restricted Shares proposed to be granted to executives. In this review, previous grants of PSUs, Options and Restricted Shares are considered when recommending new grants.

LTIP - Option Plan

The HRC&G Committee, with approval of the Board, established the Option Plan in 2011. The Board has the authority to amend or discontinue the Option Plan. For more information, see "Securities Authorized for Issuance under Equity Plans – Option Plan".

LTIP - Restricted Share Plan

The HRC&G Committee, with approval of the Board, established the Restricted Share Plan in 2018. The Board has the authority to amend or discontinue the Restricted Share Plan. Restricted Shares will be granted to the executive officers at the discretion of the Board. No Restricted Shares were granted to the executive officers in 2023. For more information, see "Securities Authorized for Issuance under Equity Plans – Restricted Share Plan".

Summary of Executive Compensation

The following table summarizes the total compensation paid to individuals who were acting as, or were acting in a capacity similar to, a Chief Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer and the three most highly compensated executive officers, other than the CEO and CFO, whose total compensation exceeded $150,000 per annum (the "Named Executive Officers") during the financial year ended December 31, 2025, including their respective total compensation acting as an executive officer during the financial years ended December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

(1) Performance Share Unit award is calculated using PSUs granted multiplied by the Common Share price on the issuance date multiplied by 1x performance multiplier.
(2) Restricted Share Plan award is calculated using restricted share units granted multiplied by the Common Share price on the issuance date.
(3) "Option-Based Award" means an award under an equity incentive plan of options, including, for greater certainty, stock options, share appreciation rights and similar instruments that have option-like features. The "grant date fair value" has been determined by using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Calculating the value of stock options using the Black-Scholes option pricing model is very different from a simple "in-the-money" value calculation. Stock options that are well out-of-the-money can still have a significant "grant date fair value" based on a Black-Scholes option pricing model, especially where, as in the case of the Corporation, the price of the Common Share underlying the option is highly volatile. Accordingly, caution must be exercised in comparing grant date fair value amounts with cash compensation or an in-the-money option value calculation.
(4) "All Other Compensation" is defined as allowances and the employer contributions of the Corporation's Retirement Savings Plan, ESPP and benefits. For more details please see "Other Forms of Compensation" in this Management Information Circular.
(5) After having previously served as Vice President, Marketing and Technology, Mr. Deng was appointed Chief Operating Officer, January 1, 2024.

(7) Mr. Gareth "Dusty" Sonnier was appointed Vice President, Products and Engineering effective January 1, 2024. Mr. Sonnier is compensated in USD, all amounts in the table above were converted to Canadian dollars at the average foreign exchange rate in effect for the fiscal year to which it pertains (2025 - 1.3979).

Following the significant escalation of conflict in the Middle East and resulting suspension of shipping through the Strait of Hormuz—events that have delayed product deliveries, revenue recognition, and related cash receipts—the Corporation elected to defer STIP payments to preserve financial flexibility. The STIP will be paid at such time as visibility on operating cash flow and working capital improves.

Other Forms of Compensation

Benefits and Allowances

The Corporation's executive officers may choose to participate in the Corporation's employee benefit program which includes extended health care, dental, life and disability insurance. A portion of the costs of the premiums are paid by the employee and a portion of the premium costs are paid by the Corporation. In addition, the executive officers receive a spending account, to a maximum of $6,500 in accordance with applicable laws and regulations.

The Corporation provides the executive officers a vehicle allowance to assist with travel expenses incurred during the normal course of business operations. These benefits and allowances are designed to be competitive with equivalent positions comparable in the targeted industry.

Retirement Benefits

The Corporation's executive officers are eligible to participate in the Corporation's retirement savings plan. Under the plan, the Corporation matches 100% of the participant's contributions to a maximum of 3.0% of base salary. This plan is available to all regular full-time employees at the same contribution levels. The other executive officers may contribute up to an additional 2% of base salary, above the Corporation's employee plans, to a maximum of 5.0% of base salary and the Corporation matches this amount to a maximum of 5.0%, or the annual maximum in accordance with applicable laws and regulations.

A retirement savings program has been designed for Jim Rakievich providing for a Corporation contribution of 10% of base salary with Mr. Rakievich contributing 2.5%. For contributions in excess of the maximum retirement savings plan amounts, as defined by the applicable laws and regulations, the Corporation funds a retirement compensation arrangement (RCA).

The Corporation does not have a registered pension plan, or a deferred compensation plan for its executive officers.

Employee Share Purchase Plan

Under the ESPP, the Corporation matches a portion of the participant's contributions to a maximum of 2.0% of base salary, or 5.0% of the annual retainer for Board of Director members. The Corporation's matching obligation is dependent on the employee's contribution years as a participant in the ESPP: less than one year a 33% match; between one and three years a 67% match; between four and seven years a 100% match; and eight years and


greater a 133% match. The ESPP is available to all regular full-time employees and may, if available, be directed to: a non-registered account; a registered retirement savings plan account; or a registered tax-free savings account. The amounts are considered vested immediately, however the employee is restricted from accessing the Corporation's matching amount for 12 months following the purchase. In addition, the ESPP 'penalizes' transfers or withdrawals prior to 5 years' service in the ESPP and every five years thereafter. Any transfer or withdrawal of Common Shares from the ESPP will result in the matching level being reset to 33%.

Notwithstanding the above, the Board requires the Corporation's executive officers to contribute 5.0% to the ESPP. The Corporation matches this amount according to the contribution years in the ESPP. Matching contributions are not made by issuing Common Shares from treasury.

Termination and Change of Control Benefits

The employment agreement for all NEOs provides for severance in the event of termination without cause or permanent disability. The severance amount is the greater of a one-time lump sum amount equal to twelve (12) months' notice plus one additional month of notice for each complete year of service after 12 complete years of service, to a maximum of eighteen (18) months' notice, or pay in lieu of that notice, calculated as follows: (i) the applicable number of month's annual base salary; (ii) an amount equal to twenty (20%) percent of the base salary to compensate for loss of benefits and perquisites; (iii) an amount equal to the average of the three (3) years' STIP payments or an amount equal to 50% of the annual base salary, whichever is greater; and (iv) an amount equal to the STIP payment earned (if any) for the fiscal year in which the termination date occurs, pro-rated as of the termination date and paid after the end of the relevant fiscal year per policy. The employment agreement also contains a change in control clause, defined as one of the following events occurring: (i) a transaction or series of transactions resulting in the sale, transfer, conveyance, lease or exchange by the Corporation of all or substantially all of its assets; (ii) the acceptance by the Corporation's shareholders of any offer, whether by way of a takeover bid or otherwise, representing in the aggregate fifty percent (50%) or more of all of the issued and outstanding Common Shares; (iii) a transaction or series of transactions resulting in the acquisition, by whatever means, by a person (or two or more persons who, in such acquisition, have acted jointly or in concert or intend to exercise jointly or in concert any voting rights attaching to the Common Shares acquired), directly or indirectly, of beneficial ownership of such number of Common Shares or rights to Common Shares, which together with such person's then-owned Common Shares and rights to Common Shares, if any, represent (assuming the full exercise of such rights) fifty percent (50%) or more of the combined voting rights attached to the then-outstanding Common Shares; (iv) the entering into of any agreement by the Corporation to merge, consolidate, restructure, amalgamate, initiate an arrangement or be absorbed by, into or with another corporation which is not an affiliate (as defined under applicable securities laws) of the Corporation; (v) the circumstances in which individuals who were members of the Board of Directors immediately prior to a meeting of the shareholders involving a contest for the election of directors no longer constitute a majority of the Board at any time within the subsequent twelve (12) months following such meeting; or (vi) such other transaction or series of transactions which the Board of Directors, acting reasonably, by resolution deems to be a Change of Control Event. For a period of twelve months following a change of control event, if the Corporation terminates any NEO employment without cause or a NEO terminates their employment for "Good Reason", the NEO is entitled to the severance pay as above.

Performance Graph

The following graph compares cumulative shareholder return commencing on December 31, 2021, and ending on December 31, 2025 (assuming a $100 investment was made on December 31, 2021) with the cumulative total return of S&P/TSX Composite Index and TSX Energy Equipment and Services Index. This assumes all dividends paid by the Corporation were re-invested in the Common Shares.

The Board of Directors and executive management elected to suspend any STIP payments for the years ended December 31, 2019, to 2021, and reduce the maximum payout in 2022 in response to the prolonged down-cycle and continued suppression of oil and natural gas prices and drilling activity.

In response to the prolonged down-cycle, including the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, and continued suppression of oil and natural gas prices and drilling activity no Options were granted in any of the years ended December 31, 2020, to December 31, 2023. For the same reason, no Restricted Shares were granted for the years ended December 31, 2022, and 2023.

Securities Authorized for Issuance under Equity Plans

Option Plan

The Shareholders approved the present Option Plan on March 19, 2011. In February 2012, the Board amended the Option Plan to include a broker-assisted cashless exercise option and additional information on withholding tax changes. The amendments did not require Shareholder approval as per Section 3.9 of the Option Plan. On March 11, 2015, the Board further amended the Option Plan to (i) extend the term of Options that may be granted under the Option Plan from up to five (5) years from the date of grant to up to ten (10) years from the date of grant for all Options granted on or after March 11, 2015; (ii) extend the required vesting provisions for Option grants from three (3) years to five (5) years such that 20% of the options granted vest in each year; (iii) refine the definition of a "Change of Control Event" and to provide for automatic accelerated vesting of Options in such circumstances; and (iv) implement certain other changes of a housekeeping nature. These amendments did not require Shareholder approval in accordance with Section 3.9 of the Option Plan and Section 613 of the TSX Company Manual. On November 8, 2017, the Board further amended the Option Plan to remove the specific vesting provisions so as to allow the Board more discretion in regard to the timeline over which Options may vest. The amendments approved on November 8, 2017 did not require Shareholder approval in accordance with Section 3.9 of the Option Plan and Section 613 of the TSX Company Manual. In conjunction with the Corporation's governance policy review, on April 8, 2021, the Board further amended the Option Plan to:

(i) prohibit any kind of financial assistance in the exercise of Options;

(ii) prohibit non-executive directors from participating in the Option Plan;

(iii) require that Options vest over a period of not less than 5 years;

(iv) amend the amendment provisions of the Option Plan to update the amendments that require Shareholder and TSX approval. Pursuant to the Option Plan as amended April 8, 2021, the Board may, by resolution, amend the Option Plan and any Options granted under the Option Plan without Shareholder approval, however, the Board will not be entitled, in the absence of Shareholder and TSX approval, to:

a. reduce the exercise price of an Option held by an Insider (as defined in the Option Plan) of the Corporation or by any other Participant (as defined in the Option Plan);

b. extend the expiry date of an Option held by an Insider or by any other participant (subject to such date being extended in respect to blackout periods as specified in the Option Plan);

c. amend the limitations on the maximum number of Common Shares reserved or issued to Insiders under the Option Plan;

d. increase the maximum number of Common Shares issuable pursuant to the Option Plan;

e. make any change to the eligible participants under the Option Plan which would have the potential of broadening or increasing Insider participation;

f. amend the Plan to permit a participant to transfer Options to any person, other than in the case of the death of the Participant; or

g. amend the amendment provisions of the Option Plan.

The April 8, 2021 Option Plan amendments align with recommended best practice as set out by leading proxy advisory service companies and TSX rules. The amendments to the amendment provisions, as described in item (iv) required both Shareholder and TSX approval in accordance with the amendment provisions of the Option Plan and Section 613 of the TSX Company Manual. The Option Plan provides that, where Shareholder approval is sought for amendments under a., b., or c. above, the votes attached to Common Shares held directly or indirectly by Insiders benefitting from the amendments will be excluded. The amendments outlined above were approved by Shareholders on June 1, 2021 and were applied prospectively to all Option awards issued thereafter.

The following is a description of the material terms and conditions of the Option Plan, as amended. The following summary is qualified in its entirety by the terms of the Option Plan, a copy of which is attached hereto as Appendix "A".

Under the Option Plan, the Board may, from time to time, grant Options to purchase Common Shares to certain directors, officers, key employees and service providers of the Corporation and its operating subsidiaries. The maximum number of Common Shares issuable under the Option Plan, together with all other security-based compensation arrangements of the Corporation, is 10% of the Common Shares outstanding from time to time on a non-diluted basis, subject to the following limitations:

  • the aggregate number of Common Shares reserved for issuance to any one person under the Option Plan, together with all other security-based compensation arrangements of the Corporation, must not exceed 5% of the then outstanding Common Shares (on a non-diluted basis);
  • in the aggregate, no more than 10% of the outstanding Common Shares (on a non-diluted basis) may be reserved at any time for Insiders under all security-based compensation arrangements of the Corporation, including the Option Plan; and
  • the number of securities of the Corporation issued to Insiders, within any one-year period, under all security-based compensation arrangements, including the Option Plan, cannot exceed 10% of issued and outstanding Common Shares (on a non-diluted basis).

The exercise price per Common Share shall be determined from time to time by the Board but, in any event, shall not be lower than the closing market price of the Common Shares on the TSX on the last trading day preceding the date of grant. The term of Options granted shall be of such length as determined by the Board but in any event shall not exceed a period of (i) ten-years from the date of grant for all Options granted on or after March 11, 2015 or (ii) five-years from the date of grant for all Options granted on or before March 10, 2015. Options shall vest over a period of not less than five years. If Options are surrendered, terminated or expire without being exercised in whole or in part, new Options may be granted covering the Common Shares not purchased under such lapsed Options to the extent permitted by the TSX.

Except as otherwise determined by the Board, an optionee's vested Options will expire 90 days after an optionee ceases to act for the Corporation, other than by reason of death or termination for cause, except that, in the discretion of the Corporation: (i) the exercise period may be extended for a maximum term expiring the earlier of the expiry of the Option period and one year from the cessation date, in the case of participants that are not employed by the Corporation and any of its subsidiaries; and (ii) the exercise period may be extended for a maximum term expiring the earlier of the expiry of the Option period and three years from the cessation date, in the case of participants that are employed by the Corporation and any of its subsidiaries.

Options of an optionee that has been terminated for cause by the Corporation will expire on the date of termination. In the event of death of an optionee, the optionee's estate shall have 6 months in which to exercise the outstanding vested Options.

The Option Plan does not confer upon a participant any right with respect to continuation of employment by the Corporation or any subsidiary, nor does it interfere or affect in any way the right of the participant, the Corporation or the subsidiary to terminate the participant's employment or other relationships with the Corporation or any subsidiary at any time.

44


Notwithstanding any other provision of the Option Plan, in the event of a Change of Control Event (as defined below), the vesting of Options and the time for the fulfillment of any conditions or restrictions on such vesting shall be automatically accelerated to a date or time prior to the effective time of the Change of Control Event without any further action on the part of the Board, and any Options not exercised or surrendered by the effective time of the Change of Control Event shall be deemed to have expired. Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary contained in the Option Plan, the Board shall have the power, in its sole discretion, in any Change of Control Event which may or has occurred, to make such arrangements as it shall deem appropriate for the exercise of outstanding Options including, without limitation, to modify the terms of the Option Plan and/or the Options. If the Board exercises such power, the Options shall be deemed to have been amended to permit the exercise thereof in whole or in part by the Option holder at any time or from time to time as determined by the Board prior to or in conjunction with completion of the Change of Control Event. "Change of Control Event" means: (i) a transaction or series of transactions resulting in the sale, transfer, conveyance, lease or exchange by the Corporation of all or substantially all of its assets; (ii) the acceptance by the Shareholders of any offer, whether by way of a takeover bid or otherwise, representing in the aggregate fifty percent (50%) or more of all of the issued and outstanding Common Shares; (iii) transaction or series of transactions resulting in the acquisition, by whatever means, by a person (or two or more persons who, in such acquisition, have acted jointly or in concert or intend to exercise jointly or in concert any voting rights attaching to the Common Shares acquired), directly or indirectly, of beneficial ownership of such number of Common Shares or rights to Common Shares, which together with such person's then-owned Common Shares and rights to Common Shares, if any, represent (assuming the full exercise of such rights) fifty percent (50%) or more of the combined voting rights attached to the then-outstanding Common Shares; (iv) the entering into of any agreement by the Corporation to merge, consolidate, restructure, amalgamate, initiate an arrangement or be absorbed by, into or with another corporation which is not an affiliate (as defined under applicable securities laws) of the Corporation; (v) the circumstance in which individuals who were members of the Board immediately prior to a meeting of the Shareholders involving a contest for the election of directors no longer constitute a majority of the Board following such election; or (vi) such other transaction or series of transactions which the Board, acting reasonably, by resolution deems to be a Change of Control Event.

If there is any change in the Common Shares through a consolidation, subdivision or reclassification of the Common Shares, or otherwise, the number of Common Shares available under the Option Plan, the Common Shares subject to any Option, and the exercise price thereof shall be adjusted appropriately by the Board and such adjustment shall be effective and binding for all purposes of the Option Plan.

No financial assistance shall be provided by the Corporation, whether by way of a loan, guarantee or otherwise, to any optionee to assist an optionee to exercise an Option. For greater certainty, a Broker-Assisted Cashless Exercise (as defined in the Corporation's Stock Option Agreement) of an Option by an optionee in accordance with the applicable Stock Option Agreement shall not constitute financial assistance.

The Option Plan allows the Board to terminate or discontinue the Option Plan at any time without the consent of the Option holders provided that such termination or discontinuance shall not alter or impair any Option previously granted under the Option Plan. Amendments to the Option Plan that would be subject to Shareholder approval include, but are not limited to, those amendments that would:

  • reduce the exercise price of an Option held by an Insider or by any other participant;
  • extend the expiry date of an Option held by an Insider or by any other participant (subject to such date being extended by virtue of the blackout provision noted above);
  • amend the limitations on the maximum number of Common Shares reserved or issued to Insiders;
  • increase the maximum number of Common Shares issuable pursuant to the Option Plan;
  • make any change to the eligible participants under the Option Plan which would have the potential of broadening or increasing Insider participation;

45


  • amend the Option Plan to permit a participant to transfer Options to any person, other than in the case of the death of a participant; or
  • amend the amendment provisions of the Option Plan.

Options granted under the Option Plan are non-assignable, except in the case of the death of an optionee.

Restricted Share Plan

The Shareholders initially approved the present Restricted Share Plan on May 10, 2018. The Board intends to use Restricted Shares issued under the Restricted Share Plan, as well as Options issued under the Option Plan, as part of the Corporation's overall executive compensation plan. Since the value of Restricted Shares increase or decrease with the price of the Common Shares, Restricted Shares achieve the compensation objective of aligning the interests of executives with those of Shareholders. In addition, Restricted Shares have time-based vesting features that can be used to better motivate executives and to encourage qualified and experienced executives to make long-term commitments to the Corporation. In conjunction with the Corporation's governance policy review, on April 8, 2021, the Board amended the Restricted Share Plan to:

(i) prohibit non-executive directors from participating in the Restricted Share Plan;

(ii) require that Restricted Shares vest over a period of not less than 3 years; and

(iii) amend the amendment provisions of the Restricted Share Plan to update the amendments that require Shareholder and TSX approval. Pursuant to the Restricted Share Plan as amended April 8, 2021 Shareholder approval will be required, in accordance with the policies of the TSX, in order for the Corporation to:

a. modify or amend the terms of Restricted Shares, including those previously granted, including the repricing of any Restricted Shares and the extension of the exercise period for any Restricted Shares except as otherwise permitted by the Restricted Share Plan;

b. make any change to the eligible Participants (as defined in the Restricted Share Plan) under the Restricted Share Plan which would have the potential of broadening or increasing Insider (as defined in the Restricted Share Plan) participation;

c. increase the number of Common Shares issuable pursuant to the Restricted Share Plan;

d. amend the Restricted Share Plan to extend the expiry date of Restricted Shares granted under the Restricted Share Plan;

e. amend the Restricted Share Plan to permit a Participant to transfer Restricted Shares to any person, other than in the case of the death of the Participant;

f. amend the amendment provision of the Restricted Share Plan; or

g. make any other amendment required to be approved by shareholders under applicable law or rules of the TSX.

The April 8, 2021 Restricted Share Plan amendments align with recommended best practice as set out by leading proxy advisory service companies and TSX rules. The amendments to the amendment provisions of the Restricted Share Plan, as described in item (iii), require both Shareholder and TSX approval in accordance with the amendment provisions of the Restricted Share Plan and Section 613 of the TSX Company Manual. The amendments outlined above were approved by Shareholders on June 1, 2021 and were applied prospectively to all Restricted Share awards issued thereafter.

The following is a description of the material terms and conditions of the Restricted Share Plan, as amended. The following summary is qualified in its entirety by the terms of the Restricted Share Plan, a copy of which is attached hereto as Appendix "B".

The Board may from time to time grant awards of Restricted Shares, subject to applicable law and the rules of the TSX, to Participants on such terms and conditions, consistent with the Restricted Share Plan, as the Board shall

46


determine. The Board may take into account one or more of the following factors: (a) the duties, responsibilities, position and seniority of the Participant; (b) the individual contributions and potential contributions of the Participant to the success of the Corporation; (c) the base salary and any other compensation (e.g., cash or securities) paid or to be paid to the Participant in respect of his or her individual contributions and potential contributions to the success of the Corporation; (d) the "Market Price" of the Common Shares at the time of grant of the Restricted Shares; and (e) any other factor the Board, in its sole discretion, deems relevant in connection with accomplishing the purposes of the Restricted Share Plan.

The Corporation's officers, key employees and consultants, or those of its subsidiaries, are eligible to receive grants of Restricted Shares under the Restricted Share Plan.

The aggregate number of Common Shares that may be issued pursuant to the exercise or settlement of Restricted Shares granted under the Restricted Share Plan and all security-based compensation arrangements of the Corporation, including the Option Plan, is 10% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares calculated on a non-diluted basis, subject to the following limitations:

  • the aggregate number of Common Shares reserved for issuance to any one person under the Restricted Share Plan, together with all other security-based compensation arrangements of the Corporation, must not exceed 5% of the then outstanding Common Shares (on a non-diluted basis);
  • the aggregate number of Common Shares reserved for issuance to Insiders under the Restricted Share Plan, together with all other share-based compensation arrangements of the Corporation, must not exceed 10% percent of the then outstanding Common Shares (on a non-diluted basis); and
  • the aggregate number of Common Shares issued to Insiders under the Restricted Share Plan, together with all other share-based compensation arrangements of the Corporation, within a one-year period, must not exceed 10% percent of the then outstanding Common Shares (on a non-diluted basis).

The "Market Price" per Common Share shall be determined from time to time by the Board but, in any event, shall not be lower than the closing market price of the Common Shares on the TSX on the last trading day preceding the date of grant. The Common Shares in respect of which Restricted Shares are not exercised shall be available for subsequent Restricted Shares. No fractional Common Shares may be issued under the Restricted Share Plan.

The Board shall determine any and all conditions to the vesting of all and/or any portion of Restricted Shares and shall specify the material terms thereof in the applicable instrument of grant. Vesting of a Restricted Share, or portion thereof, may be conditioned upon passage of a restricted period, satisfaction of certain criteria as set out in the Restricted Share Plan, continued employment, or any combination of the foregoing as determined by the Board, provided that except in connection with the death of a Participant, or as otherwise determined by the Board, Restricted Shares will not become vested more rapidly than the first anniversary of the date of grant.

The term of each Restricted Share shall be determined by the Board in its discretion, to a maximum of: (a) 10 years from the date of grant, or such shorter term as may be required by the rules of the TSX to the extent applicable to such Restricted Share. The vesting period or periods within this period during which a Restricted Share or a portion thereof may convert into Common Shares shall be over a period of not less than three years; or (b) in the event that the date determined by the Board on which a Restricted Share will expire (the "Fixed Expiry Date") falls within a period of time imposed by the Corporation upon certain designated persons during which those persons may not trade in any securities of the Corporation (a "Black-Out Period"), the expiry date of the Restricted Share shall be the Fixed Expiry Date plus ten (10) business days from the date any Black-Out Period ends (the "Black-Out Expiration Term"). In the event that the Fixed Expiry Date falls within five (5) business days immediately after a Black-Out Period ends, the Black-Out Expiration Term shall be reduced by the number of days between the Fixed Expiry Date and the date the Black-Out Period ends.

Restricted Shares shall be settled upon or as soon as reasonably practicable following becoming vested, subject to payment or other satisfaction of all related withholding obligations in accordance with the provisions of the

47


Restricted Share Plan. In its sole discretion, the Board may permit settlement to be made in cash by payment of an aggregate amount equal to: the product of (A) the Market Price on the applicable settlement date specified in the Restricted Share, and (B) the number of Restricted Shares then being settled.

Appropriate adjustments in the number of Common Shares subject to the Restricted Share Plan and Restricted Shares granted or to be granted, shall be made by the Board, subject to TSX approval, to give effect to adjustments in the number of Common Shares resulting from subdivisions, consolidations or reclassifications of the Common Shares, the payment of stock dividends by the Corporation or other relevant changes in the authorized or issued capital of the Corporation, which changes occur subsequent to the approval of the Restricted Share Plan by the Board.

Restricted Shares shall terminate at the earlier of: (i) the expiry date of the Restricted Share; or (ii) unless otherwise provided in the agreement evidencing the grant or otherwise determined by the Board, (A) the close of business 30 days after the Participant ceasing (other than by reason of death but including termination without cause) to be at least one of an officer, employee (in active employment carrying out regular and normal duties), or consultant of the Corporation or a subsidiary, as the case may be, or (B) the close of business 30 days after the Participant has been provided with written notice of dismissal related to (A) above, except in the case of dismissal for cause in which case the Restricted Shares shall terminate immediately.

If before the expiry of a Restricted Share in accordance with the terms thereof a Participant ceases to be an employee, officer or consultant by reason of the death of the Participant, any unvested portion of such Restricted Share shall be immediately vested. In addition, such Restricted Share may, subject to the terms thereof and any other terms of the Restricted Share Plan, be exercised by the legal personal representative(s) of the Participant's estate or at any time before 5:00 p.m. Calgary time on the 90th day after the date of death of the Participant, subject to, at the discretion of the Board, extension of the expiry date.

The Restricted Share Plan does not confer upon a Participant any right with respect to continuation of employment by the Corporation or any subsidiary, nor does it interfere in any way with the right of the Participant, the Corporation or the subsidiary to terminate the Participant's employment at any time.

The Restricted Share Plan allows the Board to terminate or discontinue the Restricted Share Plan at any time without the consent of the Shareholders; provided that such termination or discontinuance shall not alter or impair any Restricted Shares previously granted under the Restricted Share Plan. Shareholder approval will not be required for any of the following types of amendments (unless and to the extent prohibited by applicable law or rule of the TSX):

(a) amendments of a "housekeeping" nature;
(b) amendments necessary to comply with the provisions of applicable law and the applicable rules of the TSX;
(c) a change to the administration of the Restricted Share Plan or vesting provisions of the Restricted Share Plan or any Restricted Shares;
(d) a change to the termination provisions of Restricted Shares or the Restricted Share Plan which does not entail an extension beyond the original expiry date; and
(e) any other amendment, whether fundamental or otherwise, not requiring shareholder approval under applicable law or the rules of the TSX.

Restricted Shares under the Restricted Plan are non-assignable, except in the case of the death of the Participant.

Upon the closing or completion of a Change of Control or upon the occurrence of a deemed Change of Control pursuant to paragraph (f) of the definition of Change of Control set out below, the vesting of Restricted Shares shall be accelerated in full. In the event of a potential Change of Control the Board shall have the power to accelerate the date at which such Restricted Shares become exercisable. "Change of Control" means: (a) a

48


transaction or series of transactions resulting in the sale, transfer, conveyance, lease or exchange by the Corporation of all or substantially all of its assets; (b) the acceptance by the Shareholders of any offer, whether by way of a takeover bid or otherwise, representing in the aggregate fifty percent (50%) or more of all of the issued and outstanding Common Shares; (c) a transaction or series of transactions resulting in the acquisition, by whatever means, by a person (or two or more persons who, in such acquisition, have acted jointly or in concert or intend to exercise jointly or in concert any voting rights attaching to the Common Shares acquired), directly or indirectly, of beneficial ownership of such number of Common Shares or rights to Common Shares, which together with such person's then-owned Common Shares and rights to Common Shares, if any, represent (assuming the full exercise of such rights) fifty percent (50%) or more of the combined voting rights attached to the then-outstanding Common Shares; (d) the entering into of any agreement by the Corporation to merge, consolidate, restructure, amalgamate, initiate an arrangement or be absorbed by, into or with another corporation which is not an affiliate (as defined under applicable securities laws) of the Corporation; (e) the circumstance in which individuals who were members of the Board immediately prior to a meeting of the shareholders involving a contest for the election of directors no longer constitute a majority of the Board following such election; or (f) such other transaction or series of transactions which the Board, acting reasonably, by resolution deems to be a Change of Control.

Statement of Corporate Governance Practices

Corporate Governance Practices relates to the activities of the Board, the members of which are elected and are accountable to the Shareholders and take into account the role of the individual members of management who are appointed by the Board and who are charged with the day-to-day management of the Corporation. The Board and senior management consider good corporate governance to be central in the effective and efficient operation of the Corporation.

Pursuant to the provisions of National Instrument 58-101 Disclosure of Corporate Governance Practices ("NI 58-101") issuers are required to disclose their corporate governance practices annually and provide guidance on corporate governance practices respectively. The Board has reviewed its practices relative to the guidelines and offers the following summary.

Board of Directors

Pursuant to NI 58-101, a director is independent if the director would be considered independent within the meaning of National Instrument 52-110 ("NI 52-110") which states that a director is independent if he or she has no direct or indirect relationship with the Corporation which could, in the view of the Board, be reasonably expected to interfere with the exercise of a director's independent judgment.

As at the Effective Date, the Board is comprised of six (6) directors, five (5) of whom the Board has determined to be independent. In assessing whether a director is independent for these purposes, the circumstances of each director have been examined in relation to the factors described in NI 52-110. Eighty-three percent (83%) of the directors are independent.

51

Director Independence Status Basis for Determination of Independence
Michael Buker Independent Not applicable – no material relationship
Katherine Demuth Independent Not applicable – no material relationship
Terry D. Freeman, Chair Independent Not applicable – no material relationship
Jim Rakievich, President & CEO Not independent Is considered to have a material relationship with the Corporation by virtue of his current executive officer position with the Corporation
Alex Ryzhikov Independent Not applicable – no material relationship
William. J. Walker Independent Not applicable – no material relationship

The Corporation has taken steps to ensure that adequate structures and processes are in place to permit the Board to function independently of management. Each Board meeting concludes with an in-camera session which excludes management and management directors. These sessions are of no fixed duration and participating directors are encouraged to raise and discuss any issues of concern. The independent directors may choose to meet privately at any time, either following an in-camera session or at another time of their choosing.

Currently, the Board is satisfied that it exercises its responsibilities for independent oversight of management. The ability to establish ad hoc committees comprised solely of independent directors provides the Board with the ability to meet independently of management whenever deemed necessary or appropriate and the chair of each such ad hoc committee provides leadership for such committee.

Directors and officers of the Corporation are required to declare any material conflict or potential conflict of interest, either in writing to the Corporation or to the Board or by request to have the nature and extent of his or her interest entered in the minutes of the Board meeting. A director having declared such an interest shall abstain from voting on any resolution approving the arrangement. The disclosure requirements for directors and officers are in accordance with the ABCA. Similarly, any related-party transactions must be approved by the non-related directors and appropriately disclosed to the public.

The following table sets out details of directorships currently held by each director of the Corporation in reporting issuers other than the Corporation:

Strategic Planning and Principal Risks

The Board reviews and approves an annual plan (operating and capital budgets) of the Corporation prepared by management. The annual plan sets out the material corporate and financial objectives, plans and actions of the Corporation and sets out and takes into account the opportunities and risks of the Corporation's businesses. The Board is kept current on the Corporation's progress towards achieving these objectives through detailed quarterly financial statements and the President's Report to the Board which is delivered in advance of each scheduled Board meeting. It is the responsibility of the President and Chief Executive Officer of the Corporation to initiate the strategic planning process and it is the responsibility of the Board to support the strategic planning activities of the President and Chief Executive Officer. The Board reviews and approves any major policy initiatives and strategic decisions. The Board has also implemented a strategic planning process which includes a formal Board session.

Policy Review, Financial Reporting and Disclosure

The Board oversees the integrity and effectiveness of the Corporation's Disclosure and Confidentiality, Disclosure Controls and Procedures, Insider Trading Policies and the Corporation's Business Code of Conduct and, in conjunction with the Disclosure Committee, consisting of the executive officers of the Corporation, undertakes a review of such policies annually and revises them as appropriate with input from management. The Board also monitors and oversees all aspects of the Corporation's financial reporting and disclosure. Finally, the Board requires all news releases and reports to Shareholders containing financial information regarding the Corporation to be reviewed by the Audit Committee prior to their public release.

Internal Controls and Management Information Systems

The Audit Committee is responsible for overseeing the adequacy and effectiveness of the Corporation's internal controls and management information systems. Any deficiencies or concerns are reported to the full Board.

Management Evaluation and Succession Planning

The HRC&G Committee reviews and assesses the performance of the President and Chief Executive Officer and, with the President and Chief Executive Officer, the performance of executive officers who report to the President and Chief Executive Officer and establishes and recommends for approval to the Board the compensation packages of the President and Chief Executive Officer and other executive officers of the Corporation. The HRC&G Committee is charged with committee oversight of the succession plan for the President and Chief Executive Officer and other executive officers and periodically report to the Board on such succession plan.

Expectations and Responsibilities of Board Members

Directors should possess the highest personal and professional ethics, integrity and values and be committed to representing the long-term interests of Shareholders. They must be in good standing with respect to financial matters and all applicable laws, regulations and statutes. Directors must have mature judgment and demonstrated ability to provide leadership and relevant expertise, industry knowledge, or marketing acumen. Directors should possess knowledge of securities regulations, disclosure requirements and other corporate


governance principles as appropriate for a TSX listed public company. Directors must be able to devote sufficient time to effectively fulfill their responsibilities and duties and must be willing to limit their other activities to ensure this ability.

Diversity

Policies Regarding the Representation of Diversity on the Board

The Corporation has adopted the following Diversity Policy:

Board Diversity Policy

The HRC&G Committee regularly reviews the skills and competencies of the Corporation's directors including to assess alignment with McCoy's current and longer-term strategic vision and business strategy.

When recruiting to fill a vacant Board position or to add or enhance Board skills and competencies, the HRC&G Committee considers candidates with the attributes, knowledge and experience that are aligned with, and will further and enhance the execution of, McCoy's strategic vision and business strategy.

The Board recruiting process administered by the HRC&G Committee also considers diversity as an important element when identifying suitable candidates.

At least annually, the Board or a committee of the Board will review this policy and assess its effectiveness in promoting a diverse Board and the progress of the Company in achieving objectives set out in this policy.

Management Diversity Policy

Diversity is essential to any management team and the Corporation recognizes the value of a broad range of skills and diversity of background, race and gender among the executive leadership team.

McCoy's executive and senior leadership group reflects these attributes, and the Corporation will continue to assess candidates on these merits when recruiting or promoting from within to leadership positions.

Although no specific targets for female management roles have been adopted, the Corporation's track record has consistently reflected gender diversity as, and it will continue to be, one of the important considerations in appointing candidates to management roles.

As of the Effective Date, there is one woman on the Corporation's Board of Directors (17%) and one of the Corporation's four executive officers (25%) is a woman.

Director Term Limits and Other Mechanisms of Board Renewal

The Board has not adopted director term limits or other mechanisms of board renewal for the following reasons:

  • the implementation of director term limits is problematic, as it is an unproven method of encouraging board effectiveness;
  • the imposition of director term limits on a board implicitly discounts the value of experience and continuity amongst board members and runs the risk of excluding experienced and potentially valuable board members as a result of an arbitrary determination;
  • the impositions of rigid, prescribed term limits on the tenure of directors implies that boards cannot properly govern themselves, by usurping core functions of the board and replacing them with fixed criteria that may not adequately represent the interests of shareholders;
  • directors with the level of understanding of a company's business, history and culture acquired through long service on the board provide additional value;
  • term limits run the risk of acting as a substitute for proper board self-assessment and renewal; and

  • there is little empirical evidence that a director's ability to act independently of management declines after any specific period of service.

Other Board Committees

The Board has no standing committees other than the Audit Committee and the HRC&G Committee.

Miscellaneous Disclosures
