II. The
Corporation may from time to time (i) by resolution of the directors change the address of the registered office of the Corporation
within the municipality or geographic township within Ontario specified in its articles, and (ii) by special resolution, change
the municipality or geographic township within Ontario in which its registered office is situated.
SEAL
III. The
Corporation may, but need not, have a corporate seal. An instrument or agreement executed on behalf of the Corporation by a director,
an officer or an agent of the Corporation is not invalid merely because the corporate seal, if any, is not affixed thereto.
DIRECTORS
IV. Number
and powers. The number of directors, or the minimum and maximum number of directors of the Corporation, is set out in the articles
of the Corporation. At least 25 percent of the directors shall be resident Canadians. The directors shall manage or
supervise the management of the business and affairs of the Corporation and may exercise all such powers and do all such acts and things
as may be exercised or done by the Corporation and are not by the Act, the articles, the by-laws, any special resolution of the Corporation,
or by statute expressly directed or required to be done in some other manner.
Notwithstanding any vacancy
among the directors, the remaining directors may exercise all the powers of the directors so long as a quorum of the directors remains
in office.
Subject to subsections 124(1),
(2), (4) and (5) of the Act and to the Corporation’s articles, where there is a quorum of directors in office and a vacancy
occurs, the directors remaining in office may appoint a qualified person to hold office for the unexpired term of his predecessor.
V. Duties. Every director and officer of the Corporation in exercising his powers
and discharging his duties to the Corporation shall:
| A. | act honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of the Corporation; and |
| B. | exercise the care, diligence and skill that a reasonably prudent person would exercise in comparable circumstances. |
Every director and officer of
the Corporation shall comply with the Act, the regulations thereunder, the Corporation’s articles and by-laws and any unanimous
shareholder agreement.
VI. Qualification.
Every director shall be an individual 18 or more years of age and no one who is of unsound mind and has been so found by a court in Canada
or elsewhere or who has the status of a bankrupt shall be a director.
VII. Term
of office. A director’s term of office (subject to the provisions, if any, of the Corporation’s articles, and subject
to his election for an expressly stated term) shall be from the date of the meeting at which he is elected or appointed until the close
of the annual meeting of shareholders next following his election or appointment or until his successor is elected or appointed.
VIII. Vacation
of office. The office of a director shall be vacated if:
| A. | he dies or, subject to subsection 119(2) of the Act, sends to the Corporation a written resignation
and such resignation, if not effective upon receipt by the Corporation, becomes effective in accordance with its terms; |
| B. | he is removed from office; |
| C. | he becomes bankrupt; or |
| D. | he is found by a court in Canada or elsewhere to be of unsound mind. |
IX. Election
and removal. Directors shall be elected by the shareholders by ordinary resolution on a show of hands, or by ballot if a ballot is
demanded. Except for those directors elected for an expressly stated term, all the directors then in office shall cease to hold office
at the close of the meeting of shareholders at which directors are to be elected but, if qualified, are eligible for re-election. Subject
to subsection 122(2) of the Act, the shareholders of the Corporation may by ordinary resolution at an annual or special meeting remove
any director before the expiration of his term of office and may, by a majority of the votes cast at the meeting, elect any person in
his stead for the remainder of his term.
Whenever at any election of
directors of the Corporation the number or the minimum number of directors required by the articles is not elected by reason of the disqualification,
incapacity or the death of any candidates, the directors elected at that meeting may exercise all the powers of the directors if the number
of directors so elected constitutes a quorum pending the holding of a meeting of shareholders in accordance with subsection 124(3) of
the Act.
A retiring director shall cease
to hold office at the close of the meeting at which his successor is elected unless such meeting was called for the purpose of removing
him from office as a director in which case the director so removed shall vacate office forthwith upon the passing of the resolution for
his removal.
X. Validity
of acts. An act done by a director or by an officer is not invalid by reason only of any defect that is thereafter discovered in his
appointment, election or qualification.
MEETINGS OF DIRECTORS
XI. Place
of meeting. Meetings of directors and of any committee of directors may be held at any place within or outside Ontario and in any
financial year a majority of the meetings of the board of directors need not be held at a place within Canada. A meeting of directors
may be convened by the Chairman of the Board (if any), the President or any director at any time and the Secretary shall upon direction
of any of the foregoing convene a meeting of directors. A quorum of the directors may, at any time, call a meeting of the directors for
the transaction of any business the general nature of which is specified in the notice calling the meeting.

Notice of the time and place for the holding of any such meeting shall be sent to each director not less than two days (exclusive of the
day on which the notice is sent but inclusive of the day for which notice is given) before the date of the meeting; provided that meetings
of the directors or of any committee of directors may be held at any time without formal notice if all the directors are present (except
where a director attends a meeting for the express purpose of objecting to the transaction of any business on the grounds that the meeting
is not lawfully called) or if all the absent directors have waived notice.
Notice of the time and place
for the holding of any meeting of directors or any committee of directors may be given by delivery, telegraph, cable, telex or other electronic

For the first meeting of directors
to be held following the election of directors at an annual or special meeting of the shareholders or for a meeting of directors at which
a director is appointed to fill a vacancy in the board, no notice of such meeting need be given to the newly elected or appointed director
or directors in order for the meeting to be duly constituted, provided a quorum of the directors is present.
XIII.
Waiver of notice. Notice of a meeting of directors or of any
committee of directors or any irregularity in a meeting or in the notice thereof may be waived in any manner by any director and
such waiver may be validly given either before or after the meeting to which such waiver relates. Attendance of a director at a
meeting of directors is a waiver of notice of the meeting, except where a director attends a meeting for the express purpose of
objecting to the transaction of any business on the grounds that the meeting is not lawfully called.
XIV. Telephone
participation. Where all the directors of the Corporation present at or participating in the meeting consent thereto (either before
or after the meeting), a director may participate in a meeting of directors or of any committee of directors by means of such telephone,
electronic or other communications facilities as permit all persons participating in the meeting to communicate with each other simultaneously
and instantaneously, and a director participating in a meeting by such means shall be deemed for the purposes of the Act to be present
at that meeting. If the majority of the directors participating in the meeting are then in Canada, the meeting shall be deemed to be held
in Canada.
XV. Adjournment.
Any meeting of directors or of any committee of directors may be adjourned from time to time by the chairman of the meeting, with the
consent of the meeting, to a fixed time and place and no notice of the time and place for the holding of the adjourned meeting need be
given to any director if the time and place of the adjourned meeting is announced at the original meeting. Any adjourned meeting shall
be duly constituted if held in accordance with the terms of the adjournment and a quorum is present thereat. The directors who formed
a quorum at the original meeting are not required to form the quorum at the adjourned meeting. If there is no quorum present at the adjourned
meeting, the original meeting shall be deemed to have terminated forthwith after its adjournment.
XVI. Quorum
and voting. A majority of the number of directors or minimum number of directors required by the articles shall constitute a quorum
for the transaction of business. Subject to subsection 124(1) and subsection 126(7) of the Act, no business shall be transacted
by the directors except at a meeting of directors at which a quorum is present. Questions arising at any meeting of directors shall be
decided by a majority of votes. In case of an equality of votes, the chairman of the meeting in addition to his original vote shall not
have a second or casting vote.

is imposed by the Act or by the Corporation’s articles or by-laws) shall be as valid and as binding upon the Corporation and upon
all the shareholders as though it had been approved, ratified and/or confirmed by every shareholder of the Corporation.
FOR THE PROTECTION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS
XXI. No
director or officer for the time being of the Corporation shall be liable for the acts, receipts, neglects or defaults of any other director
or officer or employee or for joining in any receipt or act for conformity or for any loss, damage or expense suffered or incurred by
the Corporation through the insufficiency or deficiency of title to any property acquired by the Corporation or for or on behalf of the
Corporation or for the insufficiency or deficiency of any security in or upon which any of the moneys of or belonging to the Corporation
shall be placed out or invested or for any loss or damage arising from the bankruptcy, insolvency or tortious act of any person, firm
or corporation including any person, firm or corporation with whom or which any moneys, securities or effects shall be lodged or deposited
or for any loss, conversion, misapplication or misappropriation of or any damage resulting from any dealings with any moneys, securities
or other assets belonging to the Corporation or for any other loss, damage or misfortune whatever which may happen in the execution of
the duties of his respective office of trust or in relation thereto, unless the same shall happen by or through his failure to exercise
the powers and to discharge the duties of his office honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of the Corporation,
and in connection therewith to exercise the care, diligence and skill that a reasonably prudent person would exercise in comparable circumstances,
provided that nothing herein contained shall relieve a director or officer from the duty to act in accordance with the Act or regulations
made thereunder or relieve him from liability for a breach thereof. The directors for the time being of the Corporation shall not be under
any duty or responsibility in respect of any contract, act or transaction whether or not made, done or entered into in the name or on
behalf of the Corporation, except such as shall have been submitted to and authorized or approved by the board of directors. If any director
or officer of the Corporation shall be employed by or shall perform services for the Corporation otherwise than as a director or officer
or shall be a member of a firm or a shareholder, director or officer of a body corporate which is employed by or performs services for
the Corporation, the fact of his being a shareholder, director or officer of the Corporation shall not disentitle such director or officer
or such firm or body corporate, as the case may be, from receiving proper remuneration for such services.

XXII. Subject
to the Act, the Corporation shall indemnify a director or officer of the Corporation, a former director or officer of the Corporation

of another entity, and his heirs and legal representatives, against all costs, charges and expenses, including an amount paid to settle
an action or satisfy a judgment, reasonably incurred by him in respect of any civil, criminal, administrative, investigative or other
proceeding in which the individual is involved because of that association with the Corporation or other entity, if he acted honestly
and in good faith with a view to the best interests of the Corporation, or, as the case may be, to the best interests of the other entity
for which he acted as a director or officer or in a similar capacity at the Corporation’s request.
The Corporation may advance
money to a director, officer or other person for the costs, charges and expenses of a proceeding referred to above, but the person shall

A notice stating the day, hour and place of meeting and, if special business is to be transacted thereat, stating (or accompanied by a
statement of) (i) the nature of that business in sufficient detail to permit the shareholder to form a reasoned judgment thereon,
and (ii) the text of any special resolution or by-law to be submitted to the meeting, shall be served by sending such notice to each

by prepaid mail not less than 21 days and not more than 50 days (exclusive of the day of mailing and of the day for which notice is given)
before the date (if the Corporation is an offering corporation as such term is defined in the Act) or not less than 10 days before the
date (if the Corporation is not an offering corporation) of every meeting addressed to the latest address of each such person as shown
in the records of the Corporation or its transfer agent, or if no address is shown therein, then to the last address of each such person
known to the Secretary; provided that a meeting of shareholders may be held for any purpose at any date and time and at any place without

meeting (except where the shareholder or such other person attends the meeting for the express purpose of objecting to the transaction
of any business on the grounds that the meeting is not lawfully called) or if all the shareholders and other persons entitled to notice

date for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive notice of a meeting of shareholders, but such record date shall not precede
by more than 60 days or by less than 30 days the date on which the meeting is to be held.
If no record date is fixed,
the record date for the determination of the shareholders entitled to receive notice of a meeting of the shareholders shall be
| 1. | at the close of business on the day immediately preceding the day on which notice is given; or |
| 2. | if no notice is given, the day on which the meeting is held. |
XLII. Votes.
Every question submitted to any meeting of shareholders shall be decided in the first instance on a show of hands and in case of an equality
of votes the chairman of the meeting shall neither on a show of hands nor on a ballot have a second or casting vote in addition to the
vote or votes to which he may be entitled as a shareholder or proxy nominee.
At any meeting, unless a ballot
is demanded by a shareholder or proxyholder entitled to vote at the meeting, either before or after any vote by a show of hands, a declaration
by the chairman of the meeting that a resolution has been carried or carried unanimously or by a particular majority or lost or not carried
by a particular majority shall be evidence of the fact without proof of the number or proportion of votes recorded in favour of or against
the motion.
In the absence of the Chairman
of the Board (if any), the President and any Vice-President who is a director, the shareholders present entitled to vote shall choose
another director as chairman of the meeting and if no director is present or if all the directors decline to take the chair then the shareholders
present shall choose one of their number to be chairman.
If at any meeting a ballot is
demanded on the election of a chairman or on the question of adjournment or termination, the ballot shall be taken forthwith without adjournment.
If a ballot is demanded on any other question or as to the election of directors, the ballot shall be taken in such manner and either
at once or later at the meeting or after adjournment as the chairman of the meeting directs. The result of a ballot shall be deemed to
be the resolution of the meeting at which the ballot was demanded. A demand for a ballot may be made either before or after any vote by
a show of hands and may be withdrawn.
Where two or more persons hold
the same share or shares jointly, any one of such persons present at a meeting of shareholders has the right, in the absence of the other
or others, to vote in respect of such share or shares, but if more than one of such persons are present or represented by proxy and vote,
they shall vote together as one on the share or shares jointly held by them.
XLIII. Proxies.
Votes at meetings of the shareholders may be given either personally or by proxy. At every meeting at which he is entitled to vote, every
shareholder present in person and every proxyholder shall have one vote on a show of hands. Upon a poll at which he is entitled to vote
every shareholder present in person or by proxy shall (subject to the Corporation’s articles) have one vote for every share registered
in his name.
Every shareholder, including
a shareholder that is a body corporate, entitled to vote at a meeting of shareholders may by means of a proxy appoint a proxyholder or
proxyholders or one or more alternate proxyholders, who need not be shareholders, as his nominee to attend and act at the meeting in the
manner, to the extent and with the authority conferred by the proxy.
A proxy shall be in written
or printed format or a format generated by telephonic or electronic means and becomes a proxy when completed and signed in writing or
by electronic signature by the shareholder or his attorney authorized by a document that is signed in writing or by electronic signature
or, if the shareholder is a body corporate, by an officer or attorney thereof duly authorized. If a proxy or document authorizing an attorney
is signed by electronic signature, the means of electronic signature shall permit a reliable determination that the proxy or document
was created or communicated by or on behalf of the shareholder or the attorney, as the case may be. If the Corporation is an “offering
corporation” as defined in paragraph 1(1) of the Act, any such proxy appointing a proxyholder to attend and act at a meeting
or meetings of shareholders ceases to be valid one year from its date.
An instrument appointing a proxyholder
may be in the following form or in any other form which complies with the regulations made under the Act:
“The undersigned shareholder
of CELESTICA INC. hereby appoints of ,
whom failing, ,
of
as the nominee of the undersigned to attend and act for and on behalf of the undersigned at the meeting of the shareholders of the said
Corporation to be held on the day of ,
and at any adjournment thereof in the same manner, to the same extent and with the same power as if the undersigned were
present, either personally or by telephonic or electronic means, at the said meeting or such adjournment thereof.

by a shareholder or his attorney authorized by a document that is signed in writing or by electronic signature or, if the shareholder
is a body corporate, by an officer or attorney thereof duly authorized.”
The directors may from time
to time pass regulations regarding the lodging of instruments appointing a proxyholder at some place or places other than the place at
which a meeting or adjourned meeting of shareholders is to be held and for particulars of such instruments to be telegraphed, cabled,
telexed, sent in writing or otherwise communicated by electronic means that produces a written copy before the meeting or adjourned meeting
to the Corporation or any agent of the Corporation appointed for the purpose of receiving such particulars and providing that instruments
appointing a proxyholder so lodged may be voted upon as though the instruments themselves were produced at the meeting or adjourned meeting
and votes given in accordance with such regulations shall be valid and shall be counted. The chairman of the meeting of shareholders may,
subject to any regulations made as aforesaid, in his discretion accept telegraphic, telex, cable or written communication, or electronic
communication that produces a written copy, as to the authority of anyone claiming to vote on behalf of and to represent a shareholder
notwithstanding that no instrument of proxy conferring such authority has been lodged with the Corporation, and any votes given in accordance
with such telegraphic, telex, cable, written or electronic communication accepted by the chairman of the meeting shall be valid and shall
be counted.
XLIV. Adjournment.
The chairman of the meeting may with the consent of the meeting adjourn any meeting of shareholders from time to time to a fixed time
and place and if the meeting is adjourned for less than 30 days, no notice of the time and place for the holding of the adjourned meeting
need be given to any shareholder, other than by announcement at the earliest meeting that is adjourned. If a meeting of shareholders is
adjourned by one or more adjournments for an aggregate of 30 days or more, notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given as for an original
meeting but, unless the meeting is adjourned by one or more adjournments for an aggregate of more than 90 days, section 111 of the Act
does not apply. Any adjourned meeting shall be duly constituted if held in accordance with the terms of the adjournment and a quorum is
present thereat. The persons who formed a quorum at the original meeting are not required to form a quorum at the adjourned meeting. If
there is no quorum present at the adjourned meeting, the original meeting shall be deemed to have terminated forthwith after its adjournment.
Any business may be brought before or dealt with at any adjourned meeting which might have been brought before or dealt with at the original
meeting in accordance with the notice calling the same.
XLV. Quorum.
Two persons present and each holding or representing by proxy at least one issued share of the Corporation shall be a quorum of any meeting
of shareholders for the choice of a chairman of the meeting and for the adjournment of the meeting to a fixed time and place but may not
transact any other business; for all other purposes a quorum for any meeting shall be persons present not being less than two in number
and holding or representing by proxy not less than 35% of the total number of the issued shares of the Corporation for the time being
enjoying voting rights at such meeting. If a quorum is present at the opening of a meeting of shareholders, the shareholders present may
proceed with the business of the meeting, notwithstanding that a quorum is not present throughout the meeting.
Notwithstanding the foregoing,
if the Corporation has only one shareholder, or only one shareholder of any class or series of shares, the shareholder present in person
or by proxy constitutes a meeting and a quorum for such meeting.
