ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING FOR PARAMOUNT RESOURCES LTD.
NOTICE AND ACCESS NOTIFICATION TO SHAREHOLDERS
You are receiving this notification as Paramount Resources Ltd. (“ Paramount ” or “ Corporation ”) has elected to use the notice and access model for delivery of meeting materials to holders (“ Shareholders ”) of Class A Common Shares of Paramount (“ Common Shares ”) who do not hold their Common Shares in their own name but hold them in the name of a nominee (usually a trust company, securities broker or other financial institution) (“ Beneficial Shareholders ”). Paramount has elected not to use the notice and access model for Shareholders who hold their Common Shares in their own name (“ Registered Shareholders ”). Under notice and access, Beneficial Shareholders receive a proxy or voting instruction form enabling them to vote at Paramount’s annual general meeting (the “ Meeting ”); however, instead of receiving a paper copy of the Information Circular (defined below) and other meeting materials, Beneficial Shareholders receive this notice with information on how they may electronically access, or receive a paper copy of, the meeting materials. The use of this alternative means of delivery is more environmentally friendly as it will help reduce paper use and also will reduce the cost of printing and mailing meeting materials to Shareholders.
ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS
The Meeting will be held at the Corporation’s offices at 2800, 421 – 7th Avenue S.W., Calgary, Alberta, on Thursday, May 7, 2020 at 10:30 a.m. (Calgary time). Due to restrictions on mass gatherings implemented by the Government of Alberta in response to the COVID‐19 (Coronavirus) outbreak and out of concern for the wellbeing of all participants, Shareholders and guests will not be permitted to physically attend the Meeting. Shareholders are encouraged to exercise their voting rights by mail, telephone or internet in advance of the Meeting.

The specific details of the matters to be brought before the meeting are set forth in Paramount’s Management Information Circular dated March 20, 2020 (the “ Information Circular ”).
