IMPORTANT

You are entitled to vote at the Meeting and any postponement or adjournment thereof if you owned Common Shares at the close of business on March 31, 2023. For information on how you may vote, please refer to Part 1 of this Circular.

To be effective, the form of proxy or voting instruction form (the "VIF"), as applicable, must be completed and returned in accordance with the instructions provided in the Circular no later than 2:00 p.m. (Eastern Daylight Time) on May 9, 2023 or, in the event the Meeting is adjourned, 48 hours (other than a Saturday, Sunday or holiday) prior to the time to which the Meeting is adjourned.

NOTICE AND ACCESS

The Corporation has decided to use the Notice and Access rules adopted by the Canadian Securities Administrators to reduce the volume of paper with respect to materials distributed for the purpose of the Meeting. Instead of receiving the Circular, shareholders will receive a Notice of Meeting with instructions on how to access the remaining Meeting materials online together with the form of proxy or VIF, as the case may be. The Circular and other relevant materials are available on SEDAR (sedar.com), on the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") website (www.sec.gov) through EDGAR, and under the "Investors" section of the Corporation's corporate website (https://osiskodev.com/investors/). Shareholders are advised to review the Meeting materials prior to voting. If you have questions about Notice and Access, you can call our transfer agent, TSX Trust Company toll-free at 1-866-600-5869 or write an email to [email protected].

Any shareholder who wishes to receive a paper copy of the Meeting materials may, at no cost, request such printed copies by emailing the request to [email protected] or calling 1-866-600-5869 toll-free and entering the twelve (12) digit control number provided on the form of proxy or VIF and following the instructions provided. If a paper copy of the Meeting materials is required, we recommend sending the request as soon as possible, and ideally before April 25, 2023, in order to allow for sufficient time to receive and review said Meeting materials and return the form of proxy or VIF in the prescribed time. Note that if


you request a paper copy of the Circular, you will not receive a new form of proxy or VIF. You should keep the original form sent to you in order to vote.

Your participation is important to us and we encourage you to exercise your vote by completing the proxy form prior to the Meeting, even if you expect to attend. In the event you cannot participate at the Meeting, we urge you to express your support by voting, using your proxy in advance of the meeting, on the various proposals that will be putting forward at the Meeting, which are further described in the Circular.

Montréal, Québec, March 31, 2023.

By Order of the Board of Directors,
