MANAGEMENT INFORMATION CIRCULAR

SOLICITATION OF PROXIES

This management information circular (the "Circular"), which is dated May 31, 2017, is furnished in connection with the solicitation of proxies by the management of LONCOR RESOURCES INC. (the "Corporation" or "Loncor") for use at the annual and special meeting of shareholders of the Corporation (the "Meeting") to be held at the time and place and for the purposes set forth in the attached notice of annual and special meeting of shareholders (the "Notice"). It is expected that the solicitation will be by mail primarily, but proxies may also be solicited personally by the management of the Corporation. The cost of such solicitation will be borne by the Corporation.

APPOINTMENT, REVOCATION AND DEPOSIT OF PROXIES

Each of the persons named in the enclosed form of proxy is an officer of the Corporation.

A SHAREHOLDER HAS THE RIGHT TO APPOINT A PERSON (WHO NEED NOT BE A SHAREHOLDER) TO ATTEND AND ACT FOR HIM OR HER AND ON HIS OR HER BEHALF AT THE MEETING OTHER THAN THE PERSONS DESIGNATED IN THE ENCLOSED FORM OF PROXY. SUCH RIGHT MAY BE EXERCISED BY STRIKING OUT THE NAMES OF THE PERSONS DESIGNATED IN THE FORM OF PROXY AND BY INSERTING IN THE BLANK SPACE PROVIDED FOR THAT PURPOSE THE NAME OF THE DESIRED PERSON OR BY COMPLETING ANOTHER PROPER FORM OF PROXY AND, IN EITHER CASE, DELIVERING THE COMPLETED AND EXECUTED PROXY TO THE CORPORATION C/O TSX TRUST COMPANY, SUITE 300, 200 UNIVERSITY AVENUE, TORONTO, ONTARIO, M5H 4H1, CANADA, AT ANY TIME PRIOR TO 4:00 P.M.

A shareholder forwarding the enclosed form of proxy may indicate the manner in which the appointee is to vote with respect to any specific item by checking the appropriate space. If the shareholder giving the proxy wishes to confer a discretionary authority with respect to any item of business, then the space opposite the item is to be left blank. The shares represented by the proxy submitted by a shareholder will be voted in accordance with the directions, if any, given in the proxy.

A shareholder who has given a proxy may revoke it at any time in so far as it has not been exercised. A proxy may be revoked, as to any matter on which a vote shall not already have been cast pursuant to the authority conferred by such proxy, by instrument in writing executed by the shareholder or by his or her attorney authorized in writing or, if the shareholder is a body corporate, by an officer or attorney thereof duly authorized, and deposited at the registered office of the Corporation at any time prior to 4:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on the last business day preceding the day of the Meeting, or any adjournment thereof, or with the Chairman of the Meeting on the day of the Meeting or any adjournment thereof, and upon either of such deposits the proxy is revoked. A proxy may also be revoked in any other manner permitted by law.

MANNER OF VOTING AND EXERCISE OF DISCRETION BY PROXIES

The persons named in the enclosed form of proxy will vote or withhold from voting the common shares in respect of which they are appointed in accordance with the direction of the shareholders appointing them. In the absence of such direction, such common shares will be voted FOR each of the matters identified in the Notice and described in this Circular.

The enclosed form of proxy confers discretionary authority upon the persons named therein with respect to amendments or variations to matters identified in the Notice, and with respect to other matters which may properly come before the Meeting. At the time of the printing of this Circular, management of the Corporation knows of no such amendments, variations or other matters to come before the Meeting other than the matters referred to in the Notice.

VOTING BY NON-REGISTERED SHAREHOLDERS

Only shareholders whose names appear on the records of the Corporation as the registered holders of shares or their duly appointed proxyholders are permitted to vote at the Meeting. Most shareholders of the Corporation are "non-registered" shareholders because the shares they own are not registered in their names but instead are registered in the name of a nominee such as a brokerage firm through which they purchased the shares; bank, trust company, trustee or administrator of self-administered RRSPs, RRIFs, RESPs and similar plans; or clearing agency such as The Canadian Depository for Securities Limited. If you purchased your shares through a broker, you are likely an unregistered shareholder.

In accordance with Canadian securities legislation, the Meeting materials are being sent to both registered and non-registered shareholders. In the case of non-registered shareholders, Meeting materials have either (a) been sent by the Corporation (or its agent) directly to non-registered shareholders (such non-registered shareholders are referred to under applicable securities legislation as "non-objecting beneficial owners"), or (b) been sent by the Corporation (or its agent) to intermediaries holding on behalf of non-registered shareholders for distribution to such non-registered shareholders. If you are a non-registered shareholder and the Corporation (or its agent) has sent the Meeting materials directly to you (which materials should include the Corporation's voting instruction form (the "Corporation's VIF")), your name and address and information about your holdings of securities have been obtained in accordance with applicable securities regulatory requirements from the intermediary holding on your behalf. By choosing to send these materials to you directly, the Corporation (and not the intermediary holding on your behalf) has assumed responsibility for (i) delivering these materials to you, and (ii) executing your proper voting instructions. Please return your voting instructions as specified in the next paragraph.

If you received the Meeting materials directly from the Corporation (or its agent) and you wish to vote by proxy at the Meeting, please complete the Corporation's VIF and return it to TSX Trust Company (the Corporation's transfer agent) by regular mail in the return envelope provided or by fax at (416) 595-9593. If you received the Meeting materials directly from the Corporation (or its agent) and you wish to vote at the Meeting in person, you should appoint yourself as proxyholder by writing your name in the blank space provided on the Corporation's VIF (and striking out the names of the persons designated in such form) and return the Corporation's VIF to TSX Trust Company by regular mail in the return envelope provided or by fax at (416) 595-9593 (do not complete the voting section of the form as your vote will be taken at the Meeting).


3

Intermediaries receiving Meeting materials from the Corporation are required to forward the materials to non-registered shareholders to seek their voting instructions in advance of the Meeting. The intermediaries often have their own form of proxy and mailing procedures and provide their own return instructions. If you received the Meeting materials from an intermediary and you wish to vote by proxy at the Meeting, you should carefully follow the instructions from the intermediary in order that your shares are voted at the Meeting. Your shares can only be voted in accordance with your instructions. If you wish to vote at the Meeting in person, you should appoint yourself as proxyholder by writing your name in the blank space provided on the proxy form provided by the intermediary (and striking out the names of the persons designated in such form) and return the form to the intermediary in the envelope provided (do not complete the voting section of the form as your vote will be taken at the Meeting).

The Corporation is not relying on the notice-and-access provisions of securities laws for delivery to either registered or non-registered shareholders. The Corporation has elected to pay for the delivery of the Meeting materials to objecting non-registered shareholders by intermediaries.

Majority Voting Policy for Elections of Directors

Under the Ontario Business Corporations Act (the Corporation's governing corporate legislation), director elections are based on the plurality system, where shareholders vote “for” or “withhold” their votes for a director. Votes withheld are not counted, with the result that, technically, a director could be elected to the board with just one vote in favour. The board of directors of the Corporation (the "Board") believes that each of its members should have the confidence and support of the shareholders of the Corporation. On May 30, 2013, the directors unanimously adopted a majority voting policy (the "Majority Voting Policy"), a copy of the current version of which is attached as Appendix "A" to this Circular. Each of management’s nominees for election to the Board at the Meeting has agreed, and all future nominees will be required to agree, to abide by it. The Majority Voting Policy states that if in an uncontested election a director nominee has more votes withheld than are voted in favour of him or her, the nominee will be considered by the Board not to have received the support of the shareholders, even though duly elected as a matter of corporate law. Such a nominee will be required forthwith to submit his or her resignation to the Board, effective upon acceptance by the Board. The Board will refer the resignation to the Compensation Committee for consideration and a recommendation. Except in special circumstances that would warrant the continued service of the director on the Board, the Compensation Committee will be expected to recommend that the Board accept the resignation. Within 90 days after the meeting, the Board will make its decision and announce it by press release. Absent exceptional circumstances, the Board must accept the resignation of the director.

Cease Trade Orders

Except as described below, none of the proposed directors of the Corporation as set forth in the above table is, as at the date of this Circular, or has been, within 10 years before the date of this Circular, a director, chief executive officer or chief financial officer of any company (including the Corporation) that:

(a)

was subject to a cease trade order, an order similar to a cease trade order or an order that denied the relevant company access to any exemption under securities legislation, that was in effect for a period of more than 30 consecutive days that was issued while such proposed director was acting in the capacity as director, chief executive officer or chief financial officer; or

   
(b)

was subject to a cease trade order, an order similar to a cease trade order or an order that denied the relevant company access to any exemption under securities legislation, that was in effect for a period of more than 30 consecutive days, that was issued after such proposed director ceased to be a director, chief executive officer or chief financial officer and which resulted from an event that occurred while such proposed director was acting in the capacity as director, chief executive officer or chief financial officer.

As a result of not filing its audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2008 and related management's discussions and analysis by the filing deadline, New Horizon Uranium Corporation ("New Horizon") was made subject to an issuer cease trade order issued by the British Columbia Securities Commission which was revoked on November 5, 2009 (following the filing of the required records). As a result of not filing by the filing deadline its audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2008 and related management's discussions and analysis, and its unaudited interim financial statements for the period ended March 31, 2009 and related management's discussions and analysis, New Horizon was made subject to an issuer cease trade order issued by the Alberta Securities Commission which was revoked on November 6, 2009 (following the filing of the required records). Mr. William R. Wilson, a director of the Corporation, was a director and officer of New Horizon during the times the said cease trade orders were in effect.

Corporate Bankruptcies

No proposed director of the Corporation as set forth in the above table (or any personal holding company of such proposed director), is, as of the date of this Circular, or has been within 10 years before the date of this Circular, a director or executive officer of any company (including the Corporation) that, while such proposed director was acting in that capacity, or within a year of that person ceasing to act in that capacity, became bankrupt, made a proposal under any legislation relating to bankruptcy or insolvency or was subject to or instituted any proceedings, arrangement or compromise with creditors or had a receiver, receiver manager or trustee appointed to hold its assets.


7

APPOINTMENT OF AUDITORS

BDO Canada LLP, Chartered Professional Accountants and Licensed Public Accountants, are the current auditors of the Corporation and were first appointed auditors of the Corporation effective April 27, 2009. Shareholders of the Corporation will be asked at the Meeting to reappoint BDO Canada LLP as the Corporation's auditors to hold office until the close of the next annual meeting of shareholders of the Corporation, and to authorize the directors of the Corporation to fix the auditors' remuneration. The resolutions shareholders will be asked to approve must be passed by a majority of the votes cast by shareholders at the Meeting in respect of each resolution. Unless otherwise specified, the persons named in the enclosed form of proxy will vote FOR the said reappointment of BDO Canada LLP as the auditors of the Corporation and FOR authorizing the directors to fix the remuneration of the auditors.

SHARE CONSOLIDATION

Shareholders of the Corporation, at the annual and special meeting of shareholders held on June 29, 2016, passed a special resolution authorizing the Corporation to consolidate the issued and outstanding common shares of the Corporation at a ratio of either two to one or three to one, with one of the two said ratios to be selected and implemented by the Board in its sole discretion. The special resolution also provided that the latest the share consolidation could be implemented by was June 29, 2017.

The Board has to date not carried out the share consolidation. As the shareholder authorization for the share consolidation expires on June 29, 2017, and as the Board may decide, in the best interests of the Corporation, to implement the share consolidation after June 29, 2017 in order to assist in attracting additional capital for the Corporation, shareholders will be asked at the Meeting to renew the shareholder authorization for the share consolidation for another year.


8

To consolidate the common shares of the Corporation, the articles of the Corporation must be amended. Such an amendment must be authorized by a special resolution of shareholders. Shareholders of the Corporation will therefore be asked at the Meeting to consider and, if thought advisable, to authorize by means of a special resolution, an amendment to the articles of the Corporation to consolidate the issued and outstanding common shares of the Corporation by changing each one of the issued and outstanding common shares of the Corporation into either one-half of a common share of the Corporation or one-third of a common share of the Corporation, with one of the two said fractions (that is, either one-half or one-third) to be selected and implemented by the Board in its sole discretion. No fractional common shares of the Corporation will be issued in connection with such consolidation (the "Share Consolidation") and, in the event that a shareholder would otherwise be entitled to receive a fractional share upon the Share Consolidation, the number of common shares of the Corporation to be received by such shareholder will be rounded up to the next highest whole number of common shares. The special resolution shareholders will be asked to approve is as follows:

BE IT RESOLVED AS A SPECIAL RESOLUTION THAT:

1.

the articles of the Corporation be amended to consolidate the issued and outstanding common shares of the Corporation by changing each one of the issued and outstanding common shares of the Corporation into either one-half of a common share of the Corporation or one-third of a common share of the Corporation, with one of the two said fractions (that is, either one-half or one-third) to be selected and implemented by the board of directors of the Corporation in its sole discretion;

   
2.

no fractional common shares of the Corporation shall be issued in connection with the consolidation and, in the event that a shareholder would otherwise be entitled to receive a fractional share upon such consolidation, the number of common shares of the Corporation to be received by such shareholder shall be rounded up to the next highest whole number of common shares;

   
3.

any one director or officer of the Corporation be and is hereby authorized, for and on behalf of the Corporation, to execute and deliver, or cause to be delivered, articles of amendment of the Corporation, as required pursuant to the Ontario Business Corporations Act, if and when deemed advisable by the board of directors of the Corporation in its sole discretion (but in no case later than June 29, 2018), and to do all such other acts or things necessary or desirable to implement, carry out and give effect to the said consolidation; and

   
4.

the directors of the Corporation are hereby authorized, in their discretion, to revoke this special resolution or any portion thereof before it is acted upon without further approval or authorization of, or notice to, the shareholders of the Corporation.

To be approved, the above special resolution must be passed by at least two-thirds of the votes cast by shareholders at the Meeting in respect of this special resolution. Unless otherwise specified, the persons named in the enclosed form of proxy will vote FOR the special resolution.

The Share Consolidation will not materially affect the percentage ownership in the Corporation of shareholders even though such ownership will be represented by a smaller number of common shares.


9

The Share Consolidation will merely proportionally reduce the number of common shares of the Corporation held by shareholders.

The Share Consolidation may result in some shareholders owning “odd lots” of fewer than 500 common shares on a post-Share Consolidation basis. Odd lots may be more difficult to sell, or require greater transaction costs per share to sell, than common shares in “board lots” of even multiples of 500 shares.

After giving effect to the Share Consolidation and based on the number of common shares of the Corporation currently issued and outstanding as at the date of this Circular, the Corporation will have either approximately 79,344,866 (if the two to one ratio for the Share Consolidation is selected by the Board) or 52,896,578 (if the three to one ratio for the Share Consolidation is selected by the Board) common shares issued and outstanding, subject to the rounding of fractional shares pursuant to the Share Consolidation.

Notwithstanding that the above special resolution is passed at the Meeting, the directors of the Corporation may revoke it at any time prior to the filing of articles of amendment implementing the Share Consolidation and determine not to proceed with the Share Consolidation without further approval or authorization of, or notice to, the shareholders of the Corporation.

Following the filing by the Corporation of articles of amendment implementing the Share Consolidation (assuming that the above special resolution is passed at the Meeting and the Board determines to implement the Share Consolidation), a letter of transmittal will be sent by mail to registered shareholders of the Corporation advising them that such articles of amendment have been filed, and instructing them how to surrender their currently held share certificates ("Old Share Certificates") for replacement share certificates representing the number of common shares of the Corporation to which they are entitled as a result of the Share Consolidation. No delivery of a new share certificate to a shareholder will be made until the shareholder has surrendered his or her Old Share Certificate. Until surrendered, each Old Share Certificate will be deemed for all purposes to represent the number of common shares of the Corporation to which the holder thereof is entitled as a result of the Share Consolidation. Beneficial holders of common shares of the Corporation ("Beneficial Shareholders") holding their common shares of the Corporation through an intermediary (if you purchased your shares through a broker, your shares are likely held through an intermediary) should note that such intermediary may have different procedures for processing the Share Consolidation than those that will be put in place by the Corporation for registered shareholders. Beneficial Shareholders that hold common shares of the Corporation with an intermediary are encouraged to contact such intermediary with respect to any questions in this regard.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

The purpose of this Compensation Discussion and Analysis ("CD&A") is to provide information about the compensation of certain officers of the Corporation. The identified named officers of the Corporation (the "NEOs") who are the focus of this CD&A and who appear in the compensation tables of this Circular are: Arnold T. Kondrat, who is President and Chief Executive Officer of the Corporation (the "CEO"), and Donat K. Madilo, who is Chief Financial Officer of the Corporation (the "CFO").

As the Corporation's business is the exploration of mineral properties, the Corporation often has to operate with limited financial resources and control costs to ensure that funds are available to complete scheduled programs and otherwise fund its operations. As a result, the Board has attempted to keep the cash compensation paid to the Corporation's senior officers relatively modest, while providing long-term incentives through the granting of stock options. This is consistent with the Corporation's objective of preserving cash and also reflects the Corporation's belief that incentive stock options offer an effective mechanism for incentivizing management and aligning the interests of the Corporation's executive officers with those of the Corporation's shareholders.


10

Compensation Governance

In order to assist the Board in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities with respect to human resources policies and executive compensation, the Board has established the Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee is comprised of three directors, namely Maurice J. Colson (who acts as Chairman of the Compensation Committee), Richard J. Lachcik and William R. Wilson, each of whom has been determined to be independent within the meaning of section 1.4 of National Instrument 52-110. The following is a brief summary of the experience of each member of the Compensation Committee relevant to his responsibilities in executive compensation.

Maurice J. Colson - Mr. Colson holds a Masters of Business Administration from McGill University in Montreal, and has worked in the investment industry for more than 37 years. He was for many years managing director for a major Canadian investment dealer in the United Kingdom. He is actively involved in providing strategic counsel and assistance with financing to emerging private and public companies in Canada and to Canadian companies operating in China, Africa, and South America. Mr. Colson is a member of the audit committee of several Canadian publicly traded companies, and is the former President and Chief Executive Officer of the TSX Venture Exchange-listed company, Lithium One Resources.

Richard J. Lachcik - Mr. Lachcik is a partner of the law firm Norton Rose Fulbright Canada LLP, which previously acted as counsel to the Corporation. He has been practising corporate and securities law in Toronto, Canada for over 34 years. Mr. Lachcik has extensive experience in representing public companies and has also acted for a number of investment dealers. He has been an officer and director of a number of Canadian public resource companies.

William R. Wilson - Mr. Wilson holds a Masters of Business Administration from the University of Southern California. He has been a director and senior officer of a number of public mineral resource companies in both Canada and the United States, and has been a member of the audit committee of several of these companies. His experience also includes responsibility for professional contracts and compensation in several publicly traded mining and technology companies.

The significant industry experience of each of the Compensation Committee members provides them with a suitable perspective to make decisions on the appropriateness of the Corporation’s compensation policies and practices. All members of the Compensation Committee have been determined to be "financially literate" within the meaning of National Instrument 52-110, and are knowledgeable about the Corporation's compensation program.

Under its written charter, the Compensation Committee's responsibilities are set as follows: (a) review and recommend for approval to the Board the Corporation's key human resources policies; (b) review and recommend for approval to the Board the compensation and benefits policy and plans (including incentive compensation plans) for the Corporation; (c) review and recommend to the Board the employment agreements of the executive officers of the Corporation; (d) together with the Chairman of the Board (if any), evaluate annually the performance of the CEO and recommend to the Board his annual compensation package and performance objectives; (e) together with the Chairman of the Board (if any), review annually and recommend to the Board the annual compensation package and performance objectives of the other executive officers of the Corporation; (f) review annually and recommend to the Board the annual salaries (or percentage change in salaries) for non-executive staff of the Corporation; (g) review annually and recommend to the Board the adequacy and form of the compensation of the directors of the Corporation and be satisfied the compensation realistically reflects the responsibilities and risk involved in being such a director; (h) review annually and recommend for approval to the Board the executive compensation disclosure of the Corporation in its information circular, and be satisfied that the overall compensation philosophy and policy for senior officers is adequately disclosed and describes in sufficient detail the rationale for salary levels, incentive payments, stock options and all other components of executive compensation as prescribed by applicable securities laws; (i) determine grants of options to purchase shares of the Corporation under the Corporation's Stock Option Plan and recommend same to the Board for approval; (j) engage, at the expense of the Corporation, any external professional or other advisors which it determines necessary in order to carry out its duties hereunder; and (k) perform any other activities consistent with this mandate as the Compensation Committee or the Board deems necessary or appropriate.


11

No formal policies or practices have been adopted by the Board or the Compensation Committee to determine the compensation for the Corporation’s directors or executive officers. A compensation consultant or advisor has not, at any time since the Corporation’s most recently completed financial year, been retained to assist the Board or the Compensation Committee in determining compensation for any of the Corporation’s directors or executive officers.

Compensation Process

Determinations with respect to the compensation of the Corporation's senior officers (including decisions regarding any annual bonuses) are made by the Board based on the recommendation of the Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee relies on the knowledge and experience of the members of the Compensation Committee, as well as on recommendations of the CEO, in making recommendations to the Board regarding senior officer compensation. Neither the Corporation nor the Compensation Committee currently has any contractual arrangement with any executive compensation consultant who has a role in determining or recommending the amount or form of senior officer or director compensation.

When making recommendations to the Board regarding senior officer compensation, the Compensation Committee evaluates the officer's performance, including reviewing the Corporation's performance as against its business plans and the officer's achievements during the fiscal year. The criteria upon which these recommendations are based has, to date, tended to be subjective and has reflected the Compensation Committee's views as to the nature and value of the contributions made by the executive officers to the achievement of the Corporation's corporate plans and objectives. The Compensation Committee uses all data available to it to ensure that the Corporation is maintaining a level of compensation that is both commensurate with the size of the Corporation and sufficient to retain personnel it considers essential to the success of the Corporation. In reviewing comparative data, the Compensation Committee does not engage in benchmarking for the purpose of establishing compensation levels relative to any predetermined level and does not compare its compensation to a specific peer group of companies. In the Compensation Committee's view, external data provides insight into external competitiveness, but it is not an appropriate single basis for establishing compensation levels. External data is considered, along with an assessment of individual performance and experience, the Corporation's business strategy, best practices/trends in human resources, and general economic considerations.


12

In recommending the NEOs' compensation packages, the Compensation Committee reviews the various elements of the NEOs' compensation in the context of the total compensation package (including salary, bonuses and prior awards under the Stock Option Plan).

Stock options are granted by the Board under the Corporation's Stock Option Plan to senior officers upon their commencement of service. Additional grants are also made periodically under the Stock Option Plan to senior officers (a) to recognize exemplary performance (including in connection with a promotion within the Corporation) or a special contribution, or (b) to provide additional long term incentives. The Board determines the particulars with respect to stock option grants. The exercise price of each stock option granted under the Stock Option Plan is set at or above the closing price of the common shares of the Corporation (the "Common Shares") on the Toronto Stock Exchange on the day preceding the grant. See "Compensation Program - Compensation Program Design - Compensation Mix - Stock Options" below for additional information regarding the process in respect of stock option grants to NEOs.

Compensation Program

Principles/Objectives of the Compensation Program

The primary goal of the Corporation's executive compensation program is to ensure that the compensation provided to the Corporation's senior officers is determined with regard to the Corporation's business strategy and objectives, such that the financial interests of the senior officers are matched with the financial interests of the shareholders. The executive compensation program is designed to attract, motivate and retain top quality individuals at the executive level. Having regard to these objectives of attracting, motivating and retaining, the program takes into account the location of the Corporation's operations in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and the lack of infrastructure and political, military and social instability relating to this location. The Corporation strives to ensure that the Corporation's senior officers are compensated fairly and commensurately with their contributions to furthering the Corporation's strategic direction and objectives.

Compensation Program Design

Compensation Risk Management

The Compensation Committee evaluates the risks, if any, associated with the Corporation’s compensation policies and practices. Implicit in the Board’s mandate is that the Corporation’s policies and practices respecting compensation, including those applicable to the Corporation’s NEOs, be designed in a manner which is in the best interests of the Corporation and its shareholders. Risk evaluation is one of the considerations for this review.

A portion of the Corporation’s executive compensation consists of stock options granted under the Corporation's Stock Option Plan. Such compensation is both "long term" and "at risk" and, accordingly, is directly linked to the achievement of long term value creation. Since the benefits of such compensation, if any, are generally not realized by the NEO until a significant period of time has passed, the possibility of NEOs taking inappropriate or excessive risks with regard to their compensation that are financially beneficial to them at the expense of the Corporation and its shareholders is extremely limited.

The other two main elements of compensation, salary and bonus, are capped to ensure preservation of capital and to provide upper payout boundaries, thereby reducing risks associated with unexpectedly high levels of pay. In addition, the Compensation Committee believes it is unlikely that NEOs would take inappropriate or excessive risks at the expense of the Corporation and its shareholders that would be beneficial to them with regard to their short term compensation when their longer term compensation might be put at risk from their actions.


13

The Corporation’s compensation programs also allow for discretionary assessment of performance by the Compensation Committee to ensure that pay aligns with both perceived and actual performance. In addition, all major transactions require approval by the Board.

Due to the size of the Corporation, and the current level of the Corporation’s activity, the Compensation Committee is able to closely monitor and consider any risks which may be associated with the Corporation’s compensation policies and practices. Risks, if any, may be identified and mitigated through regular Board meetings during which financial and other information of the Corporation are reviewed, and which includes executive compensation. No risks have been identified arising from the Corporation’s compensation policies and practices that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Corporation.

The Corporation has a policy prohibiting directors and officers of the Corporation from purchasing financial instruments, including, for greater certainty, prepaid variable forward contracts, equity swaps, collars, or units of exchange funds, that are designed to hedge or offset a decrease in market value of equity securities granted as compensation or held, directly or indirectly, by the director or officer.

Compensation Mix

The total compensation mix was designed on the basis of the Corporation's compensation objectives. Standard compensation arrangements for the Corporation's senior officers are composed of the following elements, which are linked to the Corporation's compensation and corporate objectives as follows:

Compensation

__________________________________

(1)

A senior officer is entitled to receive a retention allowance (the "Retention Allowance") on termination of his employment with the Corporation, provided the officer has been with the Corporation for a minimum of two years and provided that termination is not due to misconduct (in the case of misconduct, the Retention Allowance is forfeited). The amount of the Retention Allowance is equal to the officer's monthly base salary multiplied by the number of years the officer was with the Corporation (up to a maximum of 10 years), with any partial year being recognized on a pro rata basis.

The Corporation does not maintain pension plans or benefit plans or provide additional perks to its senior officers.

Base Salary

The Corporation provides senior officers with base salaries which represent their minimum compensation for services rendered during the fiscal year. Base salaries depend on the officer's experience, responsibilities, skills and performance, general industry trends and practices, the Corporation's circumstances, including its existing financial resources, and the potential long term compensation provided by stock options as discussed below. In addition to the above factors, decisions regarding any salary increases are impacted by each NEO's current salary.

Bonuses

While the Corporation has not yet established a formal annual bonus program, senior officers are generally eligible to receive an annual cash bonus in an amount up to a specified percentage of such officer's base salary, subject to the Corporation’s financial situation. Senior officers may also receive from time to time during the year cash bonuses to recognize exemplary performance or a special contribution. No bonuses were paid to the NEOs in respect of fiscal 2016, in order to conserve cash having regard to the Corporation’s financial situation and the current state of the markets.

Stock Options

The grant of stock options to purchase Common Shares pursuant to the Corporation's Stock Option Plan is an integral component of the compensation packages of the senior officers of the Corporation. The Compensation Committee believes that the grant of stock options to senior officers serves to motivate achievement of the Corporation's long-term strategic objectives and the result will benefit all shareholders. The CEO makes recommendations to the Compensation Committee for potential grants of stock options. His decisions are based in part upon the level of responsibility and contribution of the individuals toward the Corporation's goals and objectives. Stock options are granted by the Board, pursuant to the Corporation's Stock Option Plan, and based upon the recommendation of the Compensation Committee. The overall number of stock options that are outstanding relative to the number of outstanding Common Shares are also considered in determining whether to make any new grants of stock options and the size of such grants. Since the Corporation does not grant stock options at a discount to the prevailing market price of the Common Shares, the stock options granted to senior officers have value only if, and to the extent that, the market price of the Common Shares increases, thereby linking equity-based executive compensation to shareholder returns.

Retention Allowance

The Corporation believes that the Retention Allowance helps to attract and retain individuals in a competitive environment and encourages long-term tenure with the Corporation.

Analysis of 2016 Compensation

Base Salary

See "Executive Compensation: Tables and Narrative - Summary Compensation Table" below which sets out the base salary paid to each of the NEOs in 2016.

Bonuses

No bonuses were paid to the NEOs in respect of fiscal 2016 in order to conserve cash, having regard to the Corporation’s financial situation and the current state of the markets.

Stock Options

During 2016, the Board granted the following number of stock options to the NEOs under the Corporation's Option Plan:

  Name No. of Stock Options

Arnold T. Kondrat 500,000
  Donat K. Madilo 500,000

See "Summary Compensation Table" and "Incentive Plan Awards" under "Executive Compensation: Tables and Narrative" below, which set out additional information in respect of the above stock option grants. The rationale for the stock option grants in 2016 to the NEOs was to provide long term incentives.

Share Performance Graph

The following graph illustrates the Corporation's cumulative shareholder return (assuming the reinvestment of dividends of which there have been none) from December 31, 2011 to December 31, 2016, based upon a Cdn$100 investment made on December 31, 2011 in the Corporation’s Common Shares, and compares the Corporation's cumulative shareholder return to the cumulative total shareholder return from a similar investment in the Total Return Index Value of the S&P/TSX Composite Index (referred to in the table below as the "TSX Index") over the same period. The price performance of the Common Shares as shown on the graph does not necessarily indicate future price performance.


16

December 31, 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016
Loncor $100 47 8 3 3 12
             
TSX Index $100 107 121 134 123 149

As described above, various factors are considered in determining the compensation of senior officers. The Common Share performance is one performance measure but there is no direct correlation between Common Share performance and executive compensation.

The Corporation operates in a commodity business and the Common Share price is impacted by the market price of gold, which has fluctuated widely and is affected by numerous factors that are difficult to predict and beyond the Corporation's control. The Common Share price is also affected by other factors beyond the Corporation's control, including general and industry-specific economic and market conditions. The Compensation Committee and the Board evaluate performance by reference to the Corporation's business plan rather than by short-term changes in Common Share price based on their view that the Corporation's long-term operating performance will be reflected by stock price performance over the long-term, which is especially important when the stock price may be depressed by short-term factors.

The trend shown by the performance graph above represents significant decreases in the Corporation's cumulative total shareholder return in each of 2012, 2013 and 2014, no change in 2015 and then a significant increase in 2016, with an overall significant decrease from the December 31, 2011 price. Over the same five year period the compensation (salary and bonus) received by the Corporation's executive officers, in aggregate (as disclosed in the Corporation’s management information circular each year in the Executive Compensation section of the circular in the table under "Summary Compensation Table"), has decreased significantly. The Compensation Committee considers total executive compensation to be modest and reasonable in the Corporation's circumstances.

The only equity compensation plan of the Corporation approved by shareholders is the Corporation's Stock Option Plan. See the disclosure below under "Terms of Stock Option Plan" for a summary of the terms of such plan.

   
(2)

See the disclosure below under "Terms of Stock Option Plan" for information relating to stock options of the Corporation outstanding as at the date of this Circular and stock options available for future grants as at the date of this Circular.

TERMS OF STOCK OPTION PLAN

The rules of the Toronto Stock Exchange provide that listed issuers must disclose on an annual basis, in their information circulars or other annual disclosure document distributed to all security holders, the terms of their security based compensation arrangements. The following summarizes the terms of the Corporation's Stock Option Plan (the "Plan").

(a)

Stock options may be granted from time to time by the Board to such directors, officers, employees and consultants of the Corporation or a subsidiary of the Corporation, and in such numbers, as are determined by the Board at the time of the granting of the stock options.

   
(b)

The number of Common Shares reserved from time to time for issuance to optionees pursuant to stock options granted under the Plan shall not exceed 8,000,000 Common Shares (there are currently outstanding under the Plan 3,190,000 stock options entitling the holders to purchase an aggregate of 3,190,000 Common Shares (which is equal to 2.01% of the number of Common Shares which are currently outstanding), such that the number of new stock options currently available for future grants under the Plan is stock options to purchase an aggregate of 4,810,000 Common Shares (which is equal to 3.03% of the number of Common Shares which are currently outstanding).



22

(c)

The exercise price of each stock option shall be determined in the discretion of the Board at the time of the granting of the stock option, provided that the exercise price shall not be lower than the "Market Price". "Market Price" means the last closing price of the Common Shares on the Toronto Stock Exchange prior to the date the stock option is granted.

   
(d)

The total number of Common Shares issued to "insiders" (as such term is defined under the Ontario Securities Act) of the Corporation, within any one year period, under all "security based compensation arrangements" (within the meaning of the rules of the Toronto Stock Exchange) of the Corporation shall not exceed 10% of the total number of outstanding Common Shares.

   
(e)

The total number of Common Shares issuable to "insiders" (as such term is defined under the Ontario Securities Act) of the Corporation, at any time, under all "security based compensation arrangements" (within the meaning of the rules of the Toronto Stock Exchange) of the Corporation shall not exceed 10% of the total number of outstanding Common Shares.

   
(f)

All stock options shall be for a term determined in the discretion of the Board at the time of the granting of the stock options, provided that no stock option shall have a term exceeding five years and, unless the Board at any time makes a specific determination otherwise (but subject to the terms of the Plan), a stock option and all rights to purchase Common Shares pursuant thereto shall expire and terminate immediately upon the optionee who holds such stock option ceasing to be at least one of a director, officer or employee of or consultant to the Corporation or a subsidiary of the Corporation, as the case may be.

   
(g)

Unless otherwise determined by the Board at the time of the granting of the stock options, one- quarter of the stock options granted to an optionee vest on each of the 6 month, 12 month, 18 month and 24 month anniversaries of the grant date.

   
(h)

Except in limited circumstances in the case of the death of an optionee, stock options shall not be assignable or transferable.

   
(i)

Disinterested shareholder approval is required prior to any reduction in the exercise price of a stock option if the optionee holding such stock option is an insider of the Corporation.

   
(j)

The Corporation may amend from time to time the terms and conditions of the Plan by resolution of the Board. Any amendments shall be subject to the prior consent of any applicable regulatory bodies, including the Toronto Stock Exchange (to the extent such consent is required).

   
(k)

The Board has full and final discretion to interpret the provisions of the Plan, and all decisions and interpretations made by the Board shall be binding and conclusive upon the Corporation and all optionees, subject to shareholder approval if required by the Toronto Stock Exchange.

   
(l)

The Plan does not provide for financial assistance by the Corporation to an optionee in connection with an option exercise.

The Board may, in its sole discretion, accelerate the vesting of currently outstanding stock options granted under the Plan in the event a take-over bid is made for the Common Shares, any change of control of the Corporation occurs or any other transaction involving the Corporation occurs.


23

INDEBTEDNESS OF DIRECTORS AND EXECUTIVE OFFICERS

As of the date of this Circular, no current or former executive officer, director or employee of the Corporation or a subsidiary of the Corporation, or associate of any such person, is indebted to the Corporation or a subsidiary of the Corporation.

As of the date of this Circular, no current or former executive officer, director or employee of the Corporation or a subsidiary of the Corporation, or associate of any such person, has indebtedness to another entity which is the subject of a guarantee, support agreement, letter of credit or other similar arrangement or understanding provided by the Corporation or a subsidiary of the Corporation.

INTEREST OF INFORMED PERSONS IN MATERIAL TRANSACTIONS

Other than as described below, no director or officer of the Corporation, no person or company that beneficially owns, or controls or directs, directly or indirectly, more than 10% of the outstanding Common Shares (a "10% Shareholder"), no director or officer of a 10% Shareholder or of a subsidiary of the Corporation and no associate or affiliate of any of the foregoing persons or companies, has or has had any material interest, direct or indirect, in any transaction since the beginning of the Corporation's financial year ended December 31, 2016 or in any proposed transaction which, in either case, has materially affected or will materially affect the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries.

In February 2016, the Corporation closed a non-brokered private placement of 67,000,000 Common Shares of the Corporation at a price of Cdn$0.015 per share for gross proceeds of Cdn$1,005,000. Arnold T. Kondrat purchased 60,000,000 of the shares issued under this private placement.

As well, a portion of the proceeds from the said February 2016 private placement were used to repay short term, non-interest bearing loans totaling Cdn$825,000 provided to the Corporation by Mr. Kondrat. The address of Mr. Kondrat is Loncor Resources Inc., Suite 7070, 1 First Canadian Place, 100 King Street West, Toronto, Ontario, M5X 1E3, Canada.

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The audited consolidated financial statements of the Corporation as at and for the financial year ended December 31, 2016 (the "2016 Financial Statements"), together with the auditors' report thereon, will be placed before the Meeting.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE MATTERS

The Board is committed to sound corporate governance practices, which are both in the interest of its shareholders and contribute to effective and efficient decision making.

National Instrument 58-101 (which is entitled "Disclosure of Corporate Governance Practices") provides that the corporate governance disclosure required by Form 58-101F1 must be included in this Circular. The following addresses the items identified in Form 58-101F1.


24

Board of Directors

A director is considered "independent" if he has no direct or indirect material relationship with the Corporation. A "material relationship" is a relationship which could, in the view of the Board, be reasonably expected to interfere with the exercise of a director's independent judgment. There are also certain circumstances which are deemed to establish a "material relationship" for the purpose of determining independence under National Instrument 58-101. The Board currently consists of four persons, three of whom have been determined to be independent within the meaning of National Instrument 58-101 and one of whom has been determined to not be independent within the meaning of National Instrument 58-101. Each of Maurice J. Colson, Richard J. Lachcik and William R. Wilson has been determined to be independent within the meaning of National Instrument 58-101. Arnold T. Kondrat (who is Chief Executive Officer and President of the Corporation) has been determined to not be independent within the meaning of National Instrument 58-101.

The Board facilitates its exercise of independent judgment in carrying out its responsibilities by having a majority of independent directors on the Board and by having the Audit Committee and Compensation Committee comprised only of independent directors. The Board also believes that the fiduciary duties placed on individual directors by the Ontario Business Corporations Act (the Corporation's governing corporate legislation) and by the common law and the restrictions placed by such legislation on an individual directors' participation in decisions of the Board in which the director has an interest ensure that the Board operates independently of management and in the best interests of the Corporation.

The independent directors of the Corporation do not hold regularly scheduled meetings at which non-independent directors and members of management are not in attendance. However, to facilitate open and frank discussion among its independent directors, the Board has adopted a practice of setting aside time at each meeting of the Board for the independent directors to hold discussions without management present. As well, an in camera session is held, without management present, at each Audit Committee meeting with the external auditors of the Corporation (when the auditors are present at the meeting).

Meetings of the Board of Directors

The frequency of Board meetings and the nature of the meeting agendas depend upon the nature of the business and affairs of the Corporation from time to time. During the financial year ended December 31, 2016, the Board held one meeting (which was attended by each of the persons proposed to be nominated at the Meeting for election as a director (see "Election of Directors") except Mr. Colson). In addition to the business conducted at such meeting, various other matters were approved by written resolution signed by all members of the Board.

Board Mandate

The Board does not have a written mandate. In broad terms, the Board is responsible for the overall stewardship of the Corporation and, as such, supervises the management of the business and affairs of the Corporation. More specifically, the Board is responsible for reviewing the strategic business plans and corporate objectives, and approving financings and acquisitions, dispositions, investments, capital expenditures and other transactions and matters that are thought to be material to the Corporation. The Board is also responsible for approving the appointment of officers, stock option grants, financial statements and proxy materials.

Position Descriptions

The Board has not developed written position descriptions for the Chairman of the Board, the chair of each Board committee or the CEO of the Corporation. The Corporation's President and CEO is responsible for the day-to-day operations of the Corporation. The President and CEO and other members of senior management undertake a significant role in the long range planning and corporate finance activities of the Corporation.

Both of the Board's committees, the Audit Committee and the Compensation Committee, have charters which set out their respective roles and responsibilities.

Orientation and Continuing Education

Due to the size of the Board, no formal program currently exists for the orientation of new directors. Each new director brings a different skill set and professional background, and with this information, the Board is able to determine what orientation regarding (a) the role of the Board, its committees and its directors, and (b) the nature and operations of the Corporation's business, will be necessary and relevant to each new director.

No formal continuing education program currently exists for the Corporation's directors. Each of the Corporation's directors has the responsibility for ensuring that he maintains the skill and knowledge necessary to meet his obligations as a director. The Corporation's legal counsel advises the Board on any changes in laws or regulations relevant to the duties and responsibilities of directors.


26

Ethical Business Conduct

The Board expects management to operate the business of the Corporation in a manner that enhances shareholder value and is consistent with the highest level of integrity.

The Board has adopted a code of business conduct and ethics for directors, officers and employees (the "Code"). A copy of the Code may be obtained from the Chief Financial Officer of the Corporation at (416) 366-2221 and is also available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com. Each director, officer and employee of the Corporation is provided with a copy of the Code and is required to confirm annually that he or she has complied with the Code. Any observed breaches of the Code must be reported to the Corporation's CEO.

There have been no material change reports filed since the beginning of the Corporation's most recently completed financial year that pertains to any conduct of a director or executive officer of the Corporation that constitutes a departure from the Code.

The Board has also adopted a "whistleblower" policy which provides employees, consultants, officers and directors with the ability to report, on a confidential and anonymous basis, violations within the Corporation's organization, including (but not limited to), questionable accounting practices, disclosure of fraudulent or misleading financial information, instances of corporate fraud, or harassment. The Board believes that providing a forum for such individuals to raise concerns about ethical conduct and treating all complaints with the appropriate level of seriousness fosters a culture of ethical business conduct.

In accordance with the Ontario Business Corporations Act (the Corporation's governing corporate legislation), directors of the Corporation who are a party to, or are a director or an officer of or have a material interest in a party to, a material contract or material transaction or a proposed material contract or proposed material transaction, are required to disclose the nature and extent of their interest and not to vote on any resolution to approve the contract or transaction. In addition, in certain cases, an independent committee of the Board may be formed to deliberate on such matters in the absence of the interested party.

Nomination of Directors

The Board has not appointed a nominating committee and does not believe that such a committee is warranted at the present time. The Board determines new nominees to the Board, although a formal process has not been adopted. The nominees are generally the result of recruitment efforts by Board members, including both formal and informal discussions among Board members and officers.

Diversity

The Corporation is committed to providing equal opportunities for individuals who have the necessary qualifications for employment and advancement within the Corporation. Loncor’s objectives include providing a work environment that is free of discrimination and harassment, including based on gender. Loncor is fully committed to increasing diversity on the Board over time.

Loncor has not adopted a formal written policy relating to the identification and nomination of female director nominees or executive officer candidates at this time. It is important to note, however, that when identifying new candidates for nomination to the Board, the Compensation Committee takes into account a broad variety of factors it considers appropriate, including skills, independence, financial acumen, board dynamics and personal characteristics, including gender. In addition, diversity in perspective arising from personal, professional or other attributes and experiences are considered when identifying potential director candidates.


27

Loncor considers gender diversity to be important and believes that its current framework for evaluating Board and executive officer candidates takes into account gender diversity. The Corporation is an equal opportunity employer. However, the priority of Loncor in recruiting new candidates is ensuring individuals bring value to the Corporation and its shareholders by possessing a suitable mix of qualifications, experience, skills and expertise.

The Corporation currently does not currently have a female director on the Board or a female executive officer. Loncor does not currently intend to adopt targets for female nominee directors or executive officers as the composition of the Board and the senior executive group is based on a broad variety of factors Loncor considers appropriate and it is ultimately the skills, experience, characteristics and qualifications of the individual that are most important in assessing the value the individual could bring to Loncor.

Term Limit and Retirement

The term of Loncor’s directors expires at the end of the next annual meeting of shareholders or when a successor is elected or appointed to the Board. Loncor does not impose term limits or mandatory retirement on its directors. The Corporation believes that term limits or mandatory retirement based on age alone may create arbitrary and technical impediments to the selection of the most qualified persons. The Board continually reviews a director’s effectiveness and the mix of skills and expertise.

It has been the Board’s experience that some of the longer-serving directors provide the most value to Loncor. This approach enables Loncor to make decisions regarding the composition of its Board and senior management team based on what is in the best interests of the Corporation and its shareholders.

Compensation

See the disclosure in this Circular under "Executive Compensation".

Other Board Committees

The Board does not have any standing committees other than the Audit Committee and the Compensation Committee.

Assessments

The Board monitors but does not formally assess the effectiveness and contribution of the Board, its committees and individual Board members. To date, the Board has satisfied itself, through informal discussions, that the Board, its committees and individual Board members are performing effectively.

DIRECTORS' APPROVAL

The contents of this Circular and the sending thereof to the shareholders of the Corporation have been approved by the Board. Unless otherwise indicated, information contained in this Circular is given as of May 31, 2017.

DATED the 31st day of May, 2017.

BY ORDER OF THE BOARD
 
(signed) "Geoffrey G. Farr"
 
Geoffrey G. Farr
Corporate Secretary



APPENDIX "A"
 
 
MAJORITY VOTING POLICY
 
LONCOR RESOURCES INC.
(the “Corporation”)
 

The Board of Directors of the Corporation (the “Board”) believes that each director should have the confidence and support of the shareholders of the Corporation. To that end, the Board has unanimously adopted this majority voting policy, and future nominees for election to the Board will be required to confirm that they will abide by it.

Forms of proxy for the election of directors will permit a shareholder to vote in favour of, or to withhold from voting, separately for each director nominee. The Chairman of the Board will ensure that the number of shares voted in favour or withheld from voting for each director nominee is recorded at the shareholders’ meeting and is made public promptly after the meeting. If the vote was by a show of hands rather than by ballot, the Corporation will disclose the number of shares voted by proxy in favour or withheld for each director.

If a director nominee has more votes withheld than are voted in favour of him or her, the nominee will be considered by the Board not to have received the support of the shareholders, even though duly elected as a matter of corporate law. In such a case, the nominee will be required forthwith to submit his or her resignation to the Board, effective on acceptance by the Board.

The compensation committee of the Board (or other committee to which has been delegated the responsibility of administering this policy) will consider the offer of resignation and make a recommendation to the Board. Except in special circumstances that would warrant the continued service of the director on the Board, the committee will be expected to recommend that the Board accept the resignation. The Board will make its decision and announce it in a press release within 90 days after the shareholders’ meeting at which the candidacy of the director was considered. A copy of this press release will be provided to the Toronto Stock Exchange. Absent exceptional circumstances, the Board must accept the resignation of the director. If the Board determines to not accept the resignation, the press release must fully state the reasons for that decision.

The director who tendered the resignation will not participate in the decision-making process, but may be counted for the purpose of determining whether the Board has quorum.

Subject to any corporate law restrictions, the Board may (i) leave a vacancy in the Board unfilled until the next annual general meeting of shareholders, (ii) fill the vacancy by appointing a new director who, in the opinion of the Board, merits the confidence of the shareholders, or (iii) call a special meeting of shareholders to consider new Board nominee(s) to fill the vacant position(s).

This policy applies only to uncontested elections, meaning elections where the number of nominees for director is equal to the number of directors to be elected.
