Additionally, as a foreign private issuer, we are permitted to follow home country practice instead of certain governance requirements set out in the NYSE rules, provided that we disclose any significant differences between our governance practices and those required by NYSE rules on our website at investor.cpkcr.com/ governance. Non-GAAP measures This proxy circular includes certain measures that do not have standardized meaning and are not defined by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP) and, therefore, may not be comparable to similar measures used by other companies. These non-GAAP measures include core adjusted operating income (OI), core adjusted operating ratio (OR), core adjusted diluted earnings per share (EPS), core adjusted return on invested capital (ROIC), adjusted free cash, and adjusted net debt to adjusted earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) included in the compensation discussion and analysis beginning on page 34.

Reference should be made to "Part I - Item IA - Risk Factors" and "Part II - Item 7 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Forward Looking Statements" in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K and "Part II - Item IA - Risk Factors" and "Part I - Item 2 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Forward-Looking Statements" in the Company's interim reports on Form 10-Q. The forward-looking statements contained in this proxy circular are made as of the date hereof. Except as required by law, the Company undertakes no obligation to update publicly or otherwise revise any forward-looking statements, or the foregoing assumptions and risks affecting such forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. In addition, our environmental, social, governance and sustainability priorities, policies, practices, programs, milestones, goals and objectives (including CPKC's climate strategy and our Commitment to Climate Action) remain under development as we continue to refine our analysis of and response to potential future climate and other risks and opportunities, and as the science, data and methodology underlying our analysis and strategy continue to evolve over time. We may make changes to our existing strategies and initiatives as a result. Therefore, in future disclosures, we may present information (including both forward-looking and historical information) that differs from the information contained in this proxy circular.

We undertake no obligation to update or otherwise revise such information, unless we are required by applicable law.

Calgary, Alberta T2C 4X9 ABOUT CPKC Founded in 1881 to connect Canada, CPKC delivers transportation solutions across the only rail network connecting North America including Canada, the United States and Mexico - connecting communities and economies across North America. We create long-term sustainable value for our shareholders and the broader economy by delivering safely and efficiently for our customers. We leverage our precision scheduled railroading foundations: provide service; control costs; optimize assets; operate safely; and develop people in all that we do. CPKC's culture is guided by three core values: accountability, diversity and pride. These values drive our actions, foster respect and inspire our journey towards excellence. Our proud railroaders are building on the legacy of the people who envisioned and built our historic railroad. Throughout our history, CPKC railroaders have defied expectations and overcome challenges, making accountability and the drive to deliver results a defining part of our culture. The dedication of our people powers our railroad as we work together to redefine what a Class I railroad can achieve - always aiming for greater things ahead. At CPKC, our reach goes where others cannot, forging new connections and opportunities. Together with our railroaders, partners, and customers, we are "Growing Together", shaping the future of railroading for generations to come. Our network Dear Shareholders, On behalf of the Board of Directors, we are pleased to invite you to the shareholder meeting for Canadian Pacific Kansas City Limited (CPKC). CPKC's 2026 annual meeting of shareholders will take place online on April 29, 2026 at 9:00 a.m. (Mountain Daylight Time) and will be streamed via live webcast at: https://meetings.lumiconnect.com/ 400-909-565-002. As in past years, shareholders will be able to vote as they would in an in-person shareholder meeting. Shareholders who usually vote by proxy ahead of the meeting will be able to do so in the usual way. More details about voting can be found at page 97 of this proxy circular. Items at the meeting At the meeting, you will vote on several items of business, including the election of directors, the "say on pay" non-binding advisory vote on our approach to executive compensation, approval of our auditor and a non-binding advisory vote on our approach to climate change. Growing together We are honoured to address you at a pivotal moment in CPKC's journey. Our theme for the 2026 Proxy Circular is "Growing Together," a reflection of our collective progress, ambition, and commitment to excellence as North America's only transnational rail network crossing Canada, the U.S. and Mexico. Since the transformative merger that created CPKC nearly three years ago, we have made significant strides in strengthening our operations, delivering value for our customers and engaging with the communities we serve. Our continued growth is the product of our dedicated employees, innovative management, and the enduring trust and partnership of you, our shareholders. Under the leadership of our exceptional management team, led by President and Chief Executive Officer Keith Creel, CPKC has realized meaningful milestones in operational efficiency, market reach, and sustainable growth. Our supply chain solutions have been recognized for reliability and resilience, supporting industries vital to North America's economic prosperity. Additionally, CPKC has focused investment in infrastructure and technology, innovating advanced automation and digital tools across our network. These initiatives support safer workplaces, reduce emissions, and drive productivity, ensuring we remain an industry leader as the landscape evolves. Our commitment to operational excellence continues to be the cornerstone of our value proposition to shareholders. Financially, CPKC delivered robust earnings growth, fortified our balance sheet, and increased our dividend program along with a new share buy-back program reflecting our commitment to shareholder returns. The CPKC leadership team continues to deliver on its strategy and the commitments made to shareholders, regulators and customers to operate safely across Canada, the U.S. and Mexico. This industry-leading management team was recognized by Extel Insights as the top scoring company in all of Canada, across all sectors, for the fourth year in a row. In 2025, the Board remained actively engaged across the breadth of the network, including holding meetings in Calgary, the home of our global headquarters, and our annual strategy meetings in Kansas City, our U.S. headquarters and the heart of our network. It was an opportunity to see the operations and the tangible value being created by the CPKC combination. We will continue to meet across the CPKC network to connect with the operations and initiatives that enable our growth. CPKC continues to progress development of the groundbreaking Hydrogen Locomotive Program with expansion of the fleet to seven units and the Hyion collaboration with CSX to manufacture additional units. Importantly, in 2025 we continued to operate the safest railroad in North America, and we continued to leverage the strength of our Home Safe program which has been instrumental in lowering the number of workplace injuries. I am proud of the CPKC family of railroaders and congratulate the entire team on continuing to deliver safely. The award winning CPKC Holiday Train crossed Canada and the U.S. for the 27th year in 2025 raising a record $2 million and collecting more than 175,000 pounds of food for local food banks in 194 communities. The CPKC Women's Open was held in Mississauga, Ont., and helped raise a record $4.5 million to support heart health in Ontario. Governance, Board Renewal and Succession Our Board has high expectations of performance for management and we hold ourselves to the same high expectations. We are continually evaluating ourselves to ensure compliance with the standards of good governance and that each member continues to function efficiently and effectively with each other and management. When evaluating the composition of the Board and potential new members, we look to enhance the skills and experience of the Board. I am pleased that, as part of the Company's ongoing board succession planning, Gordon Trafton, a current member of the CPKC Board, has been appointed Vice-Chair of the Board. Additionally, on January 27, 2026, CPKC's Board welcomed Marc Parent as a new director. He brings valuable experience in engineering, aerospace and operations leadership to the Board. We are pleased to nominate Katharine (Kate) Stevenson to the Board in 2026. Kate brings experience in finance, telecommunications and board governance. We are excited to welcome both Marc and Kate who in addition to their valuable expertise and fresh perspectives, will help guide CPKC as the company continues to build on its unique network and navigate global uncertainly. You can read more about each of our director nominees commencing on page 16. Shareholder engagement As we have done each year for the past decade, the Board continued its proactive engagement with shareholders. This year, I was joined in these discussions by Gordon Trafton (Vice-Chair and Chair of the Risk and Sustainability Committee), and Matthew Paull (Chair of the Management Resources and Compensation Committee). Our engagement with shareholders focused on several key themes including: the recently announced evolution of CPKC's Board and governance structure; progress on integration following the CP-KCS combination; updates on CPKC's climate strategy and feedback on our annual "say on climate" advisory vote; executive compensation, talent retention, and succession planning; and broader industry considerations, including potential further consolidation and evolving trade policy dynamics. The Board greatly values our ongoing dialogue with shareholders, and we carefully consider the perspectives shared with us as we continue to refine our governance and sustainability approach. Through these engagements, we have heard that shareholders continue to view our say on climate vote as an important mechanism for accountability and transparency. At the same time, several shareholders have provided feedback that an annual vote is not necessary given the long-term nature of sustainability strategy and reporting. In response, the Board has determined that we will continue to provide comprehensive sustainability disclosures and to report our sustainability progress annually to shareholders, while transitioning the say on climate vote to a three-year cycle. Following this year's say on climate vote, the next shareholder vote on this matter will be held at the Company's annual meeting in 2029. I thank you for your ongoing commitment to CPKC and look forward to your participation in our virtual shareholder meeting on April 29, 2026. In this proxy circular, you will find important information and instructions about how to participate at the virtual meeting.

Receive the financial statements Our audited consolidated financial statements for CPKC for the year ended December 31, 2025 and the auditor's report thereon will be presented at the Meeting. The audited consolidated financial statements for the most recently completed financial year are included in our 2025 annual report which is being distributed to shareholders using the "notice and access" procedures under applicable Canadian securities laws. The annual report is available on our website (investor.cpkcr.com/financials), on SEDAR+ ( https://www.sedarplus.ca ) and EDGAR ( https://www.sec.gov ) or you can ask our Corporate Secretary by mail to the Office of the Corporate Secretary, 7550 Ogden Dale Road S.E., Calgary, Alberta T2C 4X9 to send you a copy. Appointment of auditor You will vote on appointing Ernst & Young LLP (EY) as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm (auditor) for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026. EY was first appointed auditor in 2021 and the Board recommends that they be re-appointed as the Company's auditor until the close of the next annual meeting of shareholders. Last year, at our 2025 annual and special meeting, we received a 99.61% percent vote FOR the reappointment of EY as the Company's auditor. You may vote FOR or WITHHOLD your vote with respect to the appointment of EY as our independent registered accounting firm. EY's audit and non-audit fees are approved by the Audit and Finance Committee. You can read more about the Audit and Finance Committee on pages 30 and 80. The table below shows the fees we paid to EY in 2025 and 2024 for audit and non-audit services. Representatives of EY will participate at the Meeting and will have an opportunity to make a statement and respond to any questions from shareholders. For the year ended December 31 2025 2024 Audit fees for audit of our annual financial statements, reviews of quarterly reports and services relating to statutory and regulatory filings or engagements (including attestation services and audit of financial statements of certain subsidiaries and certain pension and benefits plans), and advice on accounting and/or disclosure matters $6,702,400 $6,268,200 Audit-related fees for services related to the audit but not included in the audit fees above, including securities filings $ 350,000 $ - Tax fees for services relating to tax compliance, tax planning and tax advice $ 187,900 $ 510,900 All other fees $ - $ - Total $7,240,300 $6,779,100 The Board recommends you vote FOR the appointment of EY as our auditor. Have a say on our approach to executive compensation You will have an opportunity to vote on the Company's approach to executive pay at the Meeting. As this is an advisory vote, the results are non-binding, but will give the Board important feedback on our approach to executive compensation. Last year, at our 2025 annual and special meeting, we received a 87.74% percent vote FOR our non-binding advisory resolution on executive compensation. The Compensation Committee continues to work hard to ensure our compensation program pays for performance, aligns with sound principles, supports long-term sustainable value, is clear and transparent and aligns with shareholder interests. You can vote FOR or AGAINST the following non-binding resolution on executive pay as described in this proxy circular: "RESOLVED, on an advisory basis and not to diminish the role and responsibilities of the Board of Directors, that the shareholders accept the Company's approach to the compensation of the named executive officers of Canadian Pacific Kansas City Limited as disclosed in the Company's proxy circular (which includes the compensation discussion and analysis, the compensation tables and the discussion accompanying the compensation tables) delivered prior to the 2026 annual meeting of shareholders." The Board recommends you vote FOR the advisory resolution approving the Company's approach to executive compensation. The Board will consider this year's results, other feedback it receives, as well as best practices in compensation and governance when reviewing our executive compensation in the future. You can read about executive compensation in the compensation discussion and analysis beginning on page 34. Have a say on our approach to climate change We are asking shareholders to vote on an advisory say on climate resolution approving the Company's approach to climate change. As this is an advisory vote, the results are non-binding. Last year at our 2025 annual and special meeting, we received a 91.66% vote FOR our non-binding advisory resolution on the Company's approach to climate change. CPKC recognizes that climate change presents both risks and opportunities to our business. To give stakeholders a clear view of our approach, we recently released CPKC's Climate Insights report-a resource that brings together important climate-related information in an accessible document. Replacing our 2021 Climate Strategy, this report outlines our climate governance, strategic approach, risk management practices, metrics and emissions objectives. As the Company advances its climate strategy, the Board has undertaken active and ongoing engagement with shareholders. Through these engagements, we have heard that shareholders view our say on climate vote as an important mechanism for accountability and transparency, while also expressing that an annual vote is not necessary given the long-term nature of sustainability strategy and reporting. In response, the Board has determined that we will continue to provide comprehensive sustainability disclosures and to report our sustainability progress annually to shareholders while moving to a say on climate vote every three years. Following this year, the next say on climate vote will take place at the Company's annual meeting in 2029. To guide the Company's near-term climate actions, in 2023, CPKC established a 2030 GHG emissions reduction target for the Company's locomotive operations using the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) sectoral-based approach for freight railroads and a well-below 2°C global warming scenario. This target, which was validated by SBTi, represents a commitment to: reduce our scope 1, 2, and 3 well-to-wheel locomotive emissions by 36.9 percent per gross ton-mile by 2030 from a 2020 base year. Locomotive operations represent the Company's largest source of emissions. After a strategic review of our GHG reduction targets and an assessment of evolving SBTi standards and operational factors, the Company has decided to defer formal validation of a 1.5°C-aligned target through the SBTi at this time. This decision reflects several key considerations, including that SBTi continues to update its Corporate Net-Zero Standard 2.0 (which is currently in draft form), and the fact that SBTi has not yet developed a freight rail-specific methodology that supports an intensity-based approach aligned with the 1.5°C pathway. We also considered the evolving and diverging expectations from governments, regulators, standard-setters, investors and other stakeholders across the jurisdictions in which we operate, as well as the availability of commercially viable low-emission technologies for the freight rail sector at this time. CPKC's commitment to driving emissions reductions remains unchanged, and we will continue to regularly report on our climate actions and performance to our stakeholders. An update on the Company's progress on our climate objectives and actions in 2025, including further detail on the decision to defer setting a 1.5ºC-aligned target at this time, is included in Part V of this proxy circular. The Board is asking shareholders to vote at the meeting on the following advisory say on climate resolution: "RESOLVED, on an advisory basis and not to diminish the roles and responsibilities of the Board of Directors, that the shareholders of Canadian Pacific Kansas City Limited approve the Company's approach to climate change as disclosed in this proxy circular." Although the vote is non-binding, the Risk and Sustainability Committee will review and consider the voting results taking into account shareholder perspectives. CPKC expects to inform shareholders in due course about any updates to our strategic approach to climate change through the Company's ongoing climate-related disclosures. The Board recommends you vote FOR the advisory resolution approving the Company's approach to climate change. You can read about our approach to climate change in Part V of this proxy circular beginning on page 89. Elect directors Our governing documents require us to have between five and 20 directors on our Board. This year there are 14 nominees for election to the Board, of which 13 nominees currently serve on the board. Mr. Marc Parent was appointed to the Board effective January 27, 2026 and Ms. Katharine Stevenson is a first-time nominee. See "About the Director Nominees" beginning on page 16 for further information on each nominated director. Each nominee director has expressed their willingness to serve on our Board. If before the Meeting, however, we learn that a nominee is unable to serve, the people named on your proxy or voting instruction form may be able to use their discretion to vote for another qualified nominee. Directors who are elected at the Meeting will serve from the date of the Meeting until the close of our next annual meeting of shareholders, unless a director resigns or is otherwise removed earlier. You can vote FOR or AGAINST each nominated director. The Board recommends you vote FOR each nominated director. Other Business We will consider any other business that is properly brought before the Meeting. As of the date of this proxy circular, neither management nor the Board is aware of any other items of business that may be brought before the Meeting. Shareholder proposals The Company did not receive any shareholder proposals requiring disclosure in this proxy circular. If you want to submit a shareholder proposal for our 2027 annual meeting, it must be mailed to the Office of the Corporate Secretary, 7550 Ogden Dale Road S.E., Calgary, Alberta T2C 4X9, with a copy via email at [email protected] . Under Canadian law, shareholder proposals can only be considered for the annual meeting if they are submitted during a specific period. Shareholder proposals must be submitted between 90 and 150 days before the one-year anniversary of the previous annual meeting. As such, the period during which our Corporate Secretary must receive shareholder proposals in order for them to be considered for inclusion in the circular for the 2027 annual meeting is from November 30, 2026 to and including January 29, 2027. Submitting a shareholder proposal does not guarantee that it will be included in the proxy materials. Active shareholder engagement program Since 2016, members of the Board have actively engaged with shareholders, proxy advisors and advocacy groups throughout the year. The meetings may cover a wide range of topics including executive compensation, board composition and diversity, sustainability, executive retention and succession planning, and integration oversight. Communications and engagement The Board believes in the importance of having regular and constructive communication with shareholders and other stakeholders to create an open, candid and productive dialogue. The Board communicates information about the Board, individual directors, executive compensation, our sustainability initiatives and practices and our corporate governance practices through our annual proxy circular. Shareholders can also contact the Board directly with any questions or concerns. Letters or emails should be marked confidential and addressed to the Chair of the Board at the following address: Chair of the Board c/o Office of the Corporate Secretary 7550 Ogden Dale Road S.E., Calgary, Alberta T2C 4X9 Or by email to: [email protected] or [email protected] You can communicate with the Chair of the Board anonymously, but we encourage you to identify yourself so we can acknowledge your communication. The Board's approach to shareholder engagement is summarized in the diagram below. Annual general meeting Prior to next annual meeting publish annual report and proxy statement follow up on engagement conversations, seek feedback and discuss board decisions and rationale ENGAGEMENT After the annual meeting reflect on the vote results discuss potential actions in response to results and identify compensation and governance topics of most interest to shareholders organize engagement meetings Shareholder engagement engage with shareholders and proxy advisory firms to better understand investors' views on executive compensation and governance topics review current practices and evaluate potential changes in light of feedback received Shareholder engagement Since 2016, members of the Board have engaged annually with our shareholders. In the first quarter of 2026, we engaged with many of our top institutional shareholders, collectively representing approximately 30 percent of our public float. The meetings were attended by the Company's Chair of the Board, the Vice-Chair and Chair of the Risk and Sustainability Committee, the Chair of the Compensation Committee and a representative from the Company's Investor Relations department. The objective of the meetings was to provide shareholders an update on the Company's key topics such as governance including how the Board is evolving, the KCS integration, sustainability, compensation, and of particular focus was succession and retention planning. We also asked shareholders for their views on the evolving landscape of sustainability; in particular, their views on CPKC's annual say on climate vote. Other topics of interest raised by shareholders included potential industry consolidation and evolving trade policy. ABOUT THE DIRECTOR NOMINEES The Board is elected by shareholders to oversee management and act in the best interest of the Company. The key to proper stewardship is assembling a Board that is qualified, experienced, diverse and operates independently of management. Independence Thirteen of the 14 nominated directors, including both the Chair and the Vice-Chair of the Board, and all committee members, are independent. Mr. Creel is not independent because he is the Company's President and Chief Executive Officer. Qualified and experienced senior executive leadership and strategic oversight accounting and financial literacy industry knowledge We strive to maintain a well-rounded and diverse Board that balances transportation industry experience with independence. Our directors bring to our board a mix of core skills and experience across a broad range of industries. The institutional knowledge of incumbent CPKC directors will continue to complement the skills required to have an effective and dynamic CPKC Board. Our director nominees have skills in the following areas: risk management/ cybersecurity environment, health & safety human resources & executive compensation For our detailed list of each director's skills and qualifications and to learn more about their individual skills, see the skills matrix on page 86. Diversity The Corporate Governance, Nominating and Social Responsibility Committee (Governance Committee) considers highly qualified candidates to be directors based on a balance of skills, background, experience and knowledge. Subject to applicable law, the Governance Committee also considers other factors such as age, gender, geographical representation from the regions in which we operate, cultural heritage (including Indigenous peoples and members of visible minorities) and different abilities (including persons with disabilities) of director candidates. We also consider our Board diversity policy. The director nominees have an average age of 66 years and nominee directors that served on the board in 2025 have an average tenure of 7.1 years. Five of the 14 nominees (36%) are women. The Chair of the Board is a woman and three of our nominee directors self-identify as members of a visible minority group, making the majority of the Board members of designated groups as defined in the Employment Equity Act (Canada). For more information about Board diversity, see page 74. A copy of our Board of Directors Diversity Policy can be found at investor.cpkcr.com/governance. Serving on other boards Canadian Pacific Railway Company (CPRC) is our principal operating entity in Canada and it directly or indirectly owns all of the voting shares of our other subsidiaries. Our directors serve as directors of both Canadian Pacific Kansas City Limited and CPRC and the two boards meet concurrently. CPRC is a reporting issuer in Canada because of its outstanding public debt securities. None of the nominated directors serve on more than three other public company boards (see page 78 for more information on serving on other boards). Each of our nominees, other than Ms. Stevenson, currently serves as a director of CPRC. The Board believes that all of our directors have demonstrated the ability to devote sufficient time and attention to fulfill their duties to the Board. Meeting attendance We expect directors to attend, in person, via telephone or video conference, all board meetings and all of their committee meetings. Meeting materials are provided to directors in advance. If a director cannot attend a meeting, they can provide their comments to the Chair of the Board, committee chair or the Corporate Secretary beforehand and that person will ensure the comments and views are considered at the meeting. 2025 board and committee attendance Corporate Compensation The following table summarizes director attendance in 2025.

Share Ownership All directors are CPKC shareholders and must meet our share ownership requirements within five years of joining the Board, further aligning their interests with those of our shareholders. Share ownership figures are as of March 9, 2026, and reflect shares beneficially owned or controlled, directly or indirectly, by each director, including holdings under the Directors' Deferred Share Unit (DDSU) Plan.

Ms. Peverett was a director of Postmedia Network Canada Corp. (Postmedia) from April 2013 to January 2016. On October 5, 2016, Postmedia completed a recapitalization transaction under a court-approved plan of arrangement under the CBCA. Approximately US$268.6 million of debt was exchanged for shares that represented approximately 98 percent of the outstanding shares of Postmedia at that time. Postmedia repaid, extended and amended the terms of its outstanding debt obligations. Mr. Maier served as a director of CalAmp Corp. (CalAmp) from 2021 to 2024. CalAmp was a publicly traded company whose common shares were listed on the NASDAQ during this period. CalAmp was incorporated in Delaware. On June 3, 2024, CalAmp entered into a restructuring support agreement with its principal lender, Lynrock Lake Fund LP (Lynrock), who became the equity holder of CalAmp following a series of restructuring transactions. With the support of Lynrock, on June 3, 2024, CalAmp and certain of its subsidiaries (collectively, the Debtors) filed a voluntary petition in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the Bankruptcy Court) for relief under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the United States Code , thereby commencing Chapter 11 cases for the Debtors. On July 11, 2024, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order confirming the Debtors' Joint Plan of Reorganization (the Plan), with an effective date of July 31, 2024. Pursuant to the Plan, Mr. Maier ceased to be a director of CalAmp. After consummating the Plan, CalAmp emerged from Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code on September 23, 2024, with Lynrock as the sole shareholder of CalAmp. 2025 Director Compensation The Governance Committee reviews director compensation every two to three years based on the directors' responsibilities, time commitment and the compensation provided by comparable companies. The Board last reviewed director compensation in April 2025. At that time, the annual board retainer was increased from US$280,000 to US$300,000 and the additional Board Chair retainer was increased from US$195,000 to US$225,000 per year. No changes were made to the additional committee chair retainers. The chairs of the Compensation Committee and the Audit and Finance Committee receive an additional US$40,000 per year. All other committee chairs receive an additional US$30,000 per year. We paid directors a total of approximately $5,101,678 in 2025 as detailed in the table below. Directors receive a flat fee retainer to cover their ongoing oversight and responsibilities throughout the year, and they do not receive additional compensation for attendance at Board and committee meetings. Directors receive 100 percent of their annual retainer in director deferred share units (DDSUs) until they have met their share ownership requirements. After that, directors are required to receive at least 50 percent of their compensation in DDSUs. The totals listed in the chart below represent (1) the approximate dollar value of DDSUs credited to each director's DDSU account in 2025, based on the closing fair market value of our shares on the grant date plus (2) the cash portion paid if a director elected to receive a portion of their compensation in cash. Mr. Creel does not receive compensation in respect of his role as a director because he is compensated in respect of his role as President and CEO (see pages 53 and 59 for details). He is therefore not included in the chart below. All figures in the chart below are in Canadian dollars.
