INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED TO BE DELIVERED
TO OFFEREES OR PURCHASERS.

Indemnification of Officers and Directors

The by-laws of Hudbay provide that, subject to the relevant provisions of the Canada Business Corporations Act, Hudbay shall indemnify a director or officer of Hudbay, a former director or officer of Hudbay, or another individual who acts or acted at Hudbay’s request as a director or officer, or an individual acting in a similar capacity, of another entity, against all costs, charges and expenses, including an amount paid to settle an action or satisfy a judgment, reasonably incurred by the individual in respect of any civil, criminal, administrative, investigative or other proceeding in which the individual is involved because of that association with Hudbay or such other entity if (i) the individual acted honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of Hudbay or, as the case may be, to the best interests of the other entity for which the individual acted as a director or officer or in a similar capacity at Hudbay’s request; and (ii) in the case of a criminal or administrative action or proceeding that is enforced by a monetary penalty, the individual has reasonable grounds for believing that the individual’s conduct was lawful.

Hudbay also maintains insurance for the benefit of its directors and officers against liability in their respective capacities as directors and officers. The directors and officers are not required to pay any premium in respect of the insurance. The policy contains standard industry exclusions.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the United States Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, the Registrant has been informed that in the opinion of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is therefore unenforceable.
