The Company would like to clarify that a significant number of withhold votes attributable to Mr. Grosskopf are as a result him being over boarded under the provisions of Glass Lewis. The Company would like to assure shareholders that this is being rectified and that Mr. Grosskopf will be resigning from his other board position effective July 29, 2020. As a result, following such resignation, Mr. Grosskopf will only sit on one outside Board, being Kirkland Lake Gold.

Jeff Parr, Chairman of the Board commented, “We fully appreciate shareholder concerns on over boarding and the challenges which arise when directors are over extended. Given the significant responsibility and time commitment required of a Kirkland Lake Board member, we are very pleased to have resolved Peter Grosskopf’s over boarding issue. Peter is a valued Board member who brings a unique perspective and expertise to our Board. We will continue to implement best corporate governance practices going forward to ensure the alignment of interests between shareholders and the Board. We would like to thank shareholders for their continued support.”

In addition: (i) the number of directors to be elected to hold office until the next annual meeting or until their successors are elected or appointed was fixed at eight, in accordance with the articles and by-laws of the Company; (ii) KPMG LLP, Chartered Accountants were appointed as the Company’s auditors for the ensuing year; (iii) a non-binding advisory resolution on the Company’s approach to executive compensation was passed; and (iv) amendments to the Long Term Incentive Plan and Deferred Share Unit Plan were all passed by a majority of shareholders.
