("Kennady") in connection with the proposed plan of arrangement under Section 182 of the Business Corporations Act (Ontario) (the "Arrangement") involving Mountain Province and Kennady to be completed pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions of the arrangement agreement dated January 28, 2018 between Mountain Province and Kennady; and

(b) to transact such other business as may properly be brought before the Mountain Province Meeting or any adjournment thereof.

Specific details of the matters proposed to be put before the Mountain Province Meeting are set forth in the Circular that accompanies this Notice of Meeting. The full text of the Share Issuance Resolution (being item (a) set out above) is set out in Schedule "B" – "Resolutions to be Approved at the Mountain Province Meeting" to the accompanying Circular. If the Arrangement is not completed, the Mountain Province Shares referred to in the Share Issuance Resolution will not be issued even if the Share Issuance Resolution is approved at the Mountain Province Meeting.

At the Mountain Province Meeting, Mountain Province Shareholders will be asked to consider and, if deemed advisable, pass the Share Issuance Resolution approving the issuance of up to 54,673,383 Mountain Province Shares (subject to variation due to rounding of fractional interests) in connection with the Arrangement, composed of up to 54,673,383 Mountain Province Shares to be issued to the holders of Kennady Shares ("Kennady Shareholders") (other than Mountain Province and any Kennady Shareholders validly exercising dissent rights) in exchange for their Kennady Shares pursuant to the Arrangement.

Upon the recommendation of the special committee of independent directors of Mountain Province, the board of directors of Mountain Province (the "Mountain Province Board") (other than Mr. Comerford, who, having declared a potential conflict of interest in the matters being considered, was not present and did not vote on the Arrangement) unanimously recommends that Mountain Province Shareholders vote in favour of the Share Issuance Resolution. It is a condition to the completion of the Arrangement that the Share Issuance Resolution be approved at the Mountain Province Meeting.

The record date (the "Mountain Province Record Date") for determination of Mountain Province Shareholders entitled to receive notice of and to vote at the Mountain Province Meeting is the close of business on March 5, 2018. Only Mountain Province Shareholders whose names have been entered in the register of holders of Mountain Province Shares on the close of business on the Mountain Province Record Date are entitled to receive notice of and to vote at the Mountain Province Meeting. Each Mountain Province Share entitled to be voted on each resolution at the Mountain Province Meeting will entitle the holder to one vote at the Mountain Province Meeting on all matters to come before the Mountain Province Meeting. The Share Issuance Resolution must be approved by (i) at least a majority of the votes cast on the Share Issuance Resolution by the Mountain Province Shareholders present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote at the Mountain Province Meeting, and (ii) at least a majority of the votes cast on the Share Issuance Resolution by the Minority Mountain Province Shareholders (as defined in the Circular) present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote at the Mountain Province Meeting.
