Message to shareholders

Dear Shareholders

We reflect on Ivanhoe Mines' achievements in 2025 and our ambitious vision for the future.

The past two months have marked a major shift in the global economic and political landscape. Heightened tensions have severely fragmented global trade, leading to a reordering of the global supply chain. Among other effects, this has led to a panic for refined metals. The void has not been wider between the 'haves' and 'have nots' with respect to the ability to deliver refined critical minerals.

Meanwhile, copper is trading at all-time highs, driven by intense national security concerns, the rapid advancement of energy-intensive technologies, including Artificial Intelligence (AI) and data centres,

the world's ambitious electrification agenda, population growth and industrialization. Demand for copper and other critical minerals continues to grow, and supply is not keeping up.

Ivanhoe is ideally positioned and will navigate the bumpy ride ahead. We have a portfolio of tier-one operations, powered by hydroelectric and solar power, that can weather the storm.

Our Kamoa-Kakula Copper Complex, as well as the Kipushi Mine, are among the largest and most important sources of copper and zinc globally. Our Platreef Mine, which recently commenced production, will soon become a major source of platinum, palladium, rhodium, and gold, as well as nickel and copper. Our exploration efforts continue to intensify, and we see immense promise for further discoveries of critical metals in the areas where we have a strategic advantage.

WEIBAO (WEBBER) HAO

Non-Executive Co-Chairman



Following the seismic event at the Kakula Mine in May 2025, we are advancing a disciplined and methodical operational turnaround, supported by world-leading experts. On March 31, 2026, we released a conservative technical report on Kamoa-Kakula that incorporated updates to the mine design and extraction sequence.

The updated technical report includes recommendations for further optimization, which we intend to incorporate into a Feasibility Study detailing the next five years of operations. To support this study, additional technical information will be gathered over the coming months as the dewatering of the Kakula Mine advances and additional drilling

is completed. Work on the Feasibility Study has commenced and will be completed within 12 months. Our management team is developing a

comprehensive plan for the Kamoa-Kakula Copper Complex to potentially enable its production to over 500,000 tonnes of copper per annum

from 2028.

The first batch of 99.7%-pure copper anodes was produced by Kamoa-

Kakula's state-of-the-art copper smelter at the end of 2025, marking a major milestone in the complex's development. Our direct-to-blister

smelter is the largest and most technologically advanced copper smelter on the African continent. Once ramped up, the smelter will significantly

reduce operating costs, improve operating recoveries and enable us to deliver refined copper directly to market.

The smelter will be the largest producer of sulphuric acid on the DRC Copperbelt at a time when sulphur availability globally is scarce and prices are trading at record highs. This is a strategic benefit to our shareholders, our stakeholders and the Democratic Republic of the Congo.

Beyond Kamoa-Kakula, our portfolio continues to deliver. Kipushi is now the world's highest-grade and fourth-largest zinc mine. The concentrator continues to consecutively deliver record quarterly production. We will further maximize the value generated from Kipushi's concentrates, which, in addition to zinc, also contain copper, silver, gallium and germanium.

In South Africa, the Platreef platinum, palladium, rhodium, nickel, gold, and copper mine went into production in November 2025. The President of the Republic of South Africa, Cyril Ramaphosa, officially inaugurated the mine on the same day.

The commencement of Phase 1 operations is the first of a multi-phased expansion that is set to make the Platreef Mine the world's largest primary platinum group metal producer, with notable nickel and copper. We are well advanced in the Phase 2 expansion, which is expected to be completed by the end of next year. Phase 2 and the future Phase 3 expansions will deliver tremendous value in the years ahead. The unbelievable thickness and grade of the Flatreef orebody will allow us

to mine at the most profitable margins in the industry. The Platreef Mine will deliver metals critical to the modern world for generations to come, using the latest and safest state-of-the-art, mechanized mining technology.

Investment in exploration, when done right, is the best long-term value creator for a mining company. Ivanhoe stands out among its peers because exploration is in our DNA, at a time when our peers' investment in exploration nears all-time lows.

Drilling at the Western Forelands Exploration Project, adjacent to our Kamoa-Kakula Copper Complex, continues to highlight the potential of this emerging, high-grade, world-class copper district. Ivanhoe Mines has already discovered over 50 million tonnes of contained copper across the Western Foreland shelf, including Kamoa-Kakula. The discovery cost achieved to date is less than one cent per pound of discovered copper. The Western Foreland's Makoko District discovery is already the world's fourth-largest copper discovery of the past decade, and with every drill hole, it continues to expand. We plan to release an updated Mineral Resource Estimate by mid-year.

While we continue to hunt in the Western Forelands district for the next tier-one, sedimentary-hosted copper discovery, we are also applying this knowledge to new horizons outside the Democratic Republic of the Congo. In 2025, greenfield exploration activities for copper commenced across our vast licence packages in Zambia, Angola and Kazakhstan. We are using the same systematic discovery methods that we use in the Western Forelands. The initial results are highly encouraging.

We are building Ivanhoe into a diversified, world-leading critical metals company. We have successfully built, commissioned and expanded three world-class mining operations, simultaneously over the past five years. We have a track record that

is a unicorn in our industry. Of course, these achievements were only made possible by the dedication and expertise of our resilient and passionate people.

Ivanhoe Mines is at an inflection point, with world-class assets and a strategic position that we plan to capitalize on. This is a unique time to take part in our next phase of growth, value creation, and long-term impact.

Sincerely,

ROBERT M. FRIEDLAND Founder, Executive Co-Chairman

    About the shareholder meeting (continued)

    Majority voting policy

    Our majority voting policy requires a director who receives more WITHHELD than FOR votes in an uncontested election to submit his or her resignation immediately following the shareholder meeting.

    The Board will meet to discuss the matter and accept the resignation absent any exceptional circumstances. Within 90 days of the shareholder meeting, the Board will consider any exceptional circumstances, issue a news release announcing its decision and explain its reasons not to accept the resignation (if applicable), and provide a copy of its decision to the TSX. The director in question does not participate in the Board's deliberations or vote on the matter.

    If the Board accepts the resignation, it will still issue a news release and deliver a copy to the TSX, but it can leave the vacancy until the next annual meeting, fill the Board seat by appointing a new director who the Board believes will have the confidence of shareholders, or call a special meeting of shareholders to consider a new nominee to fill the position. If the Board rejects the resignation, it will

    discuss the matter with the TSX and take the necessary steps to resolve the exceptional circumstances before the next general shareholder meeting.



    The Board considers any of the following to be an exceptional circumstance:

    if accepting the resignation means we would be breaching the terms of a commercial agreement;

    if accepting the resignation means we would no longer be in compliance with corporate or securities law;

    if the director is a key member of a special committee and accepting the resignation would jeopardize the achievement of that committee's mandate; or,

    if majority voting was used for a purpose inconsistent with the policy objectives set out by the TSX.

    You can access a copy of the majority voting policy on our website https://www.ivanhoemines.com

    Exceptional circumstances do not include recurring events, the director's length of service, qualifications, experience, meeting attendance or contributions.

    √

    Management recommends you vote FOR re-appointing PwC as our auditor and authorizing the directors to set the auditor's fees.

    No director has received a majority withheld vote since the majority voting policy was implemented in 2013. The majority voting policy only applies in uncontested elections. A plurality vote applies in contested elections, where the number of director nominees exceeds the number of directors to be elected.

  4. Appoint the auditor

    Re-appoint PricewaterhouseCoopers Inc., Chartered Accountants ("PwC") as auditor for the 2026 fiscal year and authorize the directors to set the auditor's fees. PwC has served as our auditor since March 2015.

    The table below shows the fees paid to PwC in the last two fiscal years. Fees represent professional services and do not include any out-of-pocket disbursements or fees associated with filings made on Ivanhoe's behalf.

  5. Approve the Company's Amended and Restated Employees' and Directors' Equity Incentive Plan, as amended March 26, 2026

    The Company currently operates the Equity Incentive Plan, a summary of which can be found under the heading "Summary of the Equity Incentive Plan" commencing on page 103 of this management proxy circular. The Equity Incentive Plan was first adopted in 2011, prior to the Company's listing on the TSX and its initial public offering in October 2012, and re-approved by shareholders in May 2014, May 2017, September 2020 and June 2023. Accordingly, the three-year term prescribed by the TSX expires in June 2026.

    Accordingly, shareholders will be asked to consider, and, if deemed appropriate, to approve an ordinary resolution, the full text of which is set out below, re-approving and confirming the Company's Equity Incentive Plan (as amended and

    further described below) and any unallocated options and entitlements thereunder.

    In addition to seeking the three-year approval required by the TSX, the Company is also seeking shareholder approval of the following amendments to the Equity Incentive Plan approved by the Board on March 26, 2026:

    • a decrease in the maximum number of Class A shares that may be reserved for issuance pursuant to the Equity Incentive Plan (together with any other securities-based

      compensation arrangements of the Company in effect from time to time, but excluding the shares issuable pursuant to the Share Bonus Plan and Share Purchase Plan) from 10% to 5% of the issued and outstanding Class A shares from time to time;

    • a decrease in the maximum number of Class A shares that may be reserved for issuance to insiders under the Equity Incentive Plan from 10% to 5% of the issued and outstanding Class A shares both from time to time and within any one-year period; and

    • an increase to the maximum number of Class A shares available under the share bonus provisions of the Equity Incentive Plan from 6,000,000 to 9,000,000 Class A shares.

      Proposed Resolution

      In connection with the required shareholder approval of the Equity Incentive Plan, as amended on March 26, 2026, management will place the following proposed ordinary resolution before shareholders at the meeting for their consideration:

      "Be it resolved as an ordinary resolution that:

      1. Subject to receipt of approval of the TSX, the Amended and Restated Employees' and Directors' Equity Incentive Plan, as amended March 26, 2026, (the "Equity Incentive Plan"), described in the management proxy circular of the Company dated April 30, 2026, and any unallocated options or other entitlements thereunder, be and they are hereby reconfirmed, authorized, ratified and approved in their entirety;

      2. The Company is authorized to continue granting entitlements in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Equity Incentive Plan until June 18, 2029, being the date that is three years from the date where shareholder approval is being sought; and

      3. Any director or officer of the Company is authorized to execute and deliver all other documents and do all other acts and things as may be necessary or desirable to give effect to this resolution."

      √

      Management recommends you vote FOR the ordinary resolution approving the Equity Incentive Plan, as amended March 26, 2026. The management proxyholders intend to vote FOR such ordinary resolution, except in relation to shares held by a shareholder who instructs otherwise.

      To be effective, this ordinary resolution must be approved by a simple majority of the votes cast by shareholders in person or by proxy at the meeting. If this ordinary resolution is not approved at the meeting and approval of the Equity Incentive Plan, including the amendments proposed thereto, is not obtained, the Equity Incentive Plan will continue in effect, unamended, and all awards and other entitlements issued under it will remain outstanding and unaffected, however, the Company will not be able to

      grant new awards under the Equity Incentive Plan until it is subsequently approved by shareholders.

  6. Transact any other business

You (or your proxyholder) can vote as you see fit on any amendment, variation or other matter that properly comes before the meeting.

However, if you do not specify a choice on your proxy form, the proxy form confers discretionary authority on the proxyholder concerning any matter for which a choice is not specified,

any amendment or variation to a matter, or any other matter that properly comes before the meeting. As of the date of this management proxy circular, management is not aware of an amendment, variation or other matter that may come before the meeting.

Interests of certain persons in matters to be acted upon at the meeting

No director, executive officer or director nominee, or any of their associates or affiliates, has any direct or indirect material interest (as a beneficial shareholder or in any other way) in any item of business for which approval is being sought at the meeting.

Voting in person

Do not complete your proxy form. Bring the form and your photo ID to the meeting and check in with a Broadridge representative when you arrive at the meeting.

Voting by proxy

Voting by proxy means you are appointing someone else to be your proxyholder to attend the meeting and vote your shares according to your instructions.

We are encouraging you to vote by using the proxy form or voting instruction form provided, instead of attending the meeting in person.

The Ivanhoe representatives named in the proxy form can serve as your proxyholder. If you prefer, you can appoint someone else to be your proxyholder. That person does not have to be an Ivanhoe shareholder.

Print that person's name in the space provided on the form and create an eight-character Appointee Identification Number, and make sure they know you have appointed them as your proxyholder and that they must attend the meeting on your behalf and vote your shares according to your instructions.

Shareholders who wish to appoint a person other than the Ivanhoe representatives identified in the form of proxy or voting instruction form (including a non-registered shareholder who wishes to appoint themselves to attend the meeting) must carefully follow the instructions above and on their form of proxy or voting instruction form.

If you appoint the Ivanhoe proxyholders named in the proxy form as your proxyholder and you complete the proxy form, they will vote your shares according to your instructions. If you sign and date your proxy form and return it to Broadridge but do not specify your voting instructions, the Ivanhoe proxyholders will vote your shares according to management's recommendation:

  • FOR setting the number of directors at 11 for the year;

  • FOR electing each nominated director;

  • FOR re-appointing PricewaterhouseCoopers Inc. as auditor; and

  • FOR approving the Company's Amended and Restated Employees' and Directors' Equity Incentive Plan, which includes certain amendments.

    If you do not specify a choice on your proxy form, the proxy form confers discretionary authority on the proxyholder concerning any matter for which a choice is not specified, or any amendment or variation to a matter, or any other matter that properly comes before the meeting.

    Our meeting service provider, Broadridge, must receive your vote by 8 a.m. (Pacific Time) on June 16, 2026, for your vote to be counted, or 48 hours (excluding Saturdays, Sundays and statutory holidays in Vancouver, British Columbia) before the date of the reconvened meeting if the meeting is postponed or adjourned.

    Revoking your proxy

    If you change your mind about how you want to vote your shares and you have voted by proxy, you can revoke your proxy in any of the following ways:

  • Vote again on the Internet at https://www.proxyvote.com before 8 a.m. (Pacific Time) on June 16, 2026;

  • Complete a new proxy form with a later date and mail it to: Data Tabulation P.O. Box 3700, STN Industrial Park, Markham,

    ON L3R 9Z9 Broadridge must receive the new proxy form before 8 a.m. (Pacific Time) on June 16, 2026;

  • Send a notice in writing from you or your authorized attorney (or by a duly authorized officer if the shareholder is a corporation) revoking the proxy to our Vice President, Compliance and Corporate Secretary so that it is received before 8 a.m. (Pacific Time) on June 16, 2026, or bring the notice to the meeting and deliver it to the chair prior to the

    start of the meeting but not later than before the matters of business are voted on; and

  • Attend the meeting and vote at the meeting virtually via Internet webcast or in person - your proxyholder cannot then attend and vote for you.

Voting by non-registered (beneficial) shareholders

Most of our shareholders are non-registered (beneficial) shareholders.

That means your shares are registered in the name of your intermediary (like a bank, trust company, securities dealer, securities broker, trustee, or administrator of self-administered RRSPs, RRIFs, RESPs and similar plans) or the name of a depository or clearing agency (like CDS Clearing

and Depositary Services Inc.) that the intermediary uses.

You can provide voting instructions for shares you own beneficially to your intermediary or vote in person at the meeting or virtually via Internet webcast as a proxy for yourself.

To reduce printing and mailing costs, we are using the notice and access provisions under NI 54-101 to deliver the 2026 management proxy circular and other materials for the shareholder meeting. Intermediaries often use service companies to forward meeting materials to beneficial shareholders. We pay the cost for intermediaries to deliver our meeting materials to beneficial shareholders.

Intermediaries often use service companies to send meeting materials to beneficial shareholders. If you have not waived the right to receive the meeting materials, your package will typically include either a voting instruction form or a proxy form signed by your intermediary as the holder of record for you to provide your voting instructions or to vote as proxy. Some intermediaries such as banks and brokerage firms have a service for providing voting instructions over the Internet. Your package includes information about the internet service if your intermediary offers the service.

Voting instruction form

A voting instruction form is usually an unsigned one-page, pre-printed form provided to a beneficial holder and when signed and returned by the beneficial holder constitutes instructions on how to vote which the intermediary or service provider must follow.

Some intermediaries or service companies may also use a regular proxy form as a voting instruction form instead, with a page of instructions and a label with a bar code and other information.

For the proxy form to be properly voted as a voting instruction form, the label must be affixed to the properly completed proxy form, signed and submitted to your intermediary or service company so they can carry out your voting instructions.

Proxy form

A proxy form is used by a shareholder of record to appoint someone else to attend the meeting and vote their shares on their behalf. Some intermediaries who are shareholders of record may provide you with a proxy form that is already signed by the intermediary (usually by a facsimile or stamped signature) and restricted to the number of Class A shares you beneficially own.

To vote your shares in this manner, the beneficial holder must complete the proxy form, sign it and date it and then send it to:

Broadridge, 2601 - 14th Avenue, Markham, ON L3R 0H9

Voting virtually via Internet webcast as a beneficial holder

If you want to attend the meeting and vote your shares virtually via Internet webcast, follow these steps:

  1. Appoint yourself as a proxyholder by submitting a duly completed voting instruction form or online at https://www.proxyvote.com. You must write your name in the appointee box and create an 8-character Appointee Identification Number.

  2. You must make note of your exact name and eight-character Appointee Identification Number as these details will be required to access the virtual meeting. Appointees can only be validated at the virtual shareholder meeting using the exact name and eight-character Appointee Identification Number you entered when making the appointment.

  3. You MUST submit your voting instruction form by 8 a.m. (Pacific Time) on June 16, 2026.

  4. On the date of the meeting, log onto the Broadridge website using the link below at least 15 minutes before the start of the meeting. You should allow ample time to check into the virtual meeting and complete the related procedures. Click on the PROXYHOLDER/APPOINTEE tab and enter the exact name and Appointee Identification Number you provided when making the appointment. If you do not enter the exact name and eight-character Appointee Identification Number

    you created you will not be able to access the virtual meeting.

    https://www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/IVN2026.

    A voting instruction form cannot be used to vote directly at the meeting.

    Notwithstanding the foregoing, if you are a beneficial holder located in the United States, you will generally have to first obtain a valid legal proxy from your intermediary and you will need to submit such legal proxy to Broadridge at:

    Data Tabulation

    P.O. Box 3700, STN Industrial Park, Markham, ON L3R 9Z9

    For further details, you should contact your intermediary directly.

    Voting in person as a beneficial holder

    If you want to attend the meeting and vote your shares in person:

    • strike out the names of the Ivanhoe representatives named in the proxy form or the voting instruction form; and

    • print your name in the space provided. If you want to appoint someone else to attend the meeting and vote your shares for you according to your instructions, print their name in the space provided on the proxy form or voting instruction form. The person does not need to be an Ivanhoe shareholder.

Then carefully follow the instructions provided by your intermediary for returning the form.

A voting instruction form cannot be used to vote directly at the meeting.

Changing your vote as a beneficial holder

Follow the instructions provided by your intermediary for revoking or changing your voting instructions or pre-signed proxy or contact your intermediary right away. You must ensure this happens far enough ahead of the meeting so your intermediary or service provider can act on your revocation or changed instructions in time for the meeting.

For more information on voting related matters, beneficial shareholders should contact their broker who services their account and registered shareholders can email their name, address, contact details and voting inquiry to Broadridge at proxy.request@broadridge.com.

About the shareholder meeting (continued)

About the nominated directors

We are committed to assembling a strong and effective Board.

Ivanhoe's Board is led by Robert Friedland, our Founder and Executive Co-Chairman, and Weibao (Webber) Hao, Non-Executive Co-Chairman, one of the nominees put forward by our strategic shareholder partner, CITIC Metal Africa Investments Limited.

Tadeu Carneiro, an independent director, metallurgical engineer, business executive and lecturer, serves as our Lead Independent Director, is a member of the Nominating and Corporate Governance and Compensation and Human Resources committees, and is the Chair of the Technical Committee.

This year we again have 11 director nominees. Each nominee is qualified and currently serves on the Board. In late 2022, the Board commenced a process to identify prospective, independent directors of diverse backgrounds, experiences and skills to increase the independence of the Board as well as female and African representation. If all nominees are elected at the meeting, seven (64%) of the 11 nominees are independent, within the meaning of the Canadian Securities Administrators' National Instrument 58-101 - Disclosure of Corporate Governance Practices. See page 32 for more information.

We believe our 11 director nominees provide a sophisticated balance of institutional knowledge and fresh perspectives. This collective breadth of experience is essential for navigating the complex regulatory, operational, and financial risks inherent in a global enterprise. By integrating veterans from the mining, corporate finance and capital markets sectors, the Board maintains a deep understanding of our core operations and the fiscal discipline and funding mechanisms required for long-term growth. This is complemented by high-level expertise in government and insurance, providing the critical foresight needed to manage geopolitical shifts and large-scale liability.

Together, the 11 nominated directors provide a strong foundation of skills that we believe are critical for the robust oversight of our business and long-term value creation. You can read about these nominees in more detail in the director profiles starting on page 18.

Additionally, the independent directors and non-management directors have the opportunity to meet in-camera at every meeting of the Board.

Each nominated director has provided information about the Ivanhoe equity they own directly or indirectly as of April 30, 2026.

Directors are required to own Ivanhoe securities, unless specifically exempted, to align their interests with those of our shareholders and give them a vested interest in Ivanhoe's future success. The Board has waived the application of the share ownership requirement to certain directors who serve in executive roles with our largest shareholders or the parent companies thereof.

The minimum stock ownership policy for non-executive directors was amended in August 2023 such that in addition to Class A shares of Ivanhoe, qualifying securities now include DSUs that non-executive directors have elected to settle

in shares.

In addition, non-executive directors must now hold the value of two times the basic annual retainer in qualifying Ivanhoe securities. This amount was $150,000 in 2025.

Recognizing that equity securities fluctuate in value over time, once a director reaches the minimum share ownership requirement equivalent to the value of $150,000 by December 31 of the fourth year following the date he or she joined the Board, we consider them in compliance with the policy so long as they continue to maintain their holdings even if the value of those holdings subsequently fluctuates.

See page 36 to read more about our non-executive director equity ownership requirements.

ROBERT M. FRIEDLAND

International financier Robert Friedland founded this Company in 1993 to advance mineral prospects in Southern Africa. He has served as Executive Chairman and a director of the Company, formerly named Ivanplats Limited, since November 2000 and was President from June 2003 to May 2008.

For more than 31 years, Mr. Friedland has been recognized by leaders of the global financial sector and mineral resource industries as an entrepreneurial explorer, company builder and technology innovator. He has successfully developed a series of public and private companies, which have been at the forefront of some of the world's most notable mineral discoveries and mine developments including Fort Knox in Alaska, Voisey's Bay in Canada, Oyu Tolgoi in Mongolia, Platreef in South Africa and Kamoa-Kakula in the DRC. Under his leadership, the Ivanhoe group and associated companies have raised more than US$25 billion on world capital markets since 1993.

This capital has been invested in more than 30 nations, directed primarily at mineral resources and disruptive technologies.

In 1994, Mr. Friedland founded Indochina Goldfields Ltd., the predecessor to what became known as Turquoise Hill Resources. The company completed a C$270 million IPO on the Toronto Stock Exchange in 1996 and acquired the exploration rights for the Oyu Tolgoi project in 2000. After raising more than C$7 billion in equity and debt capital to fund Oyu Tolgoi's discovery and initial development, Oyu Tolgoi has become one of the world's largest copper-gold mines. Rio Tinto Group completed its acquisition of Turquoise Hill in December 2022.

From 1994 to 1996, Mr. Friedland served as Co-Chairman of Diamond Fields and played a prominent role in its IPO on the TSX in 1994. Assuming its co-chairmanship in 1994 after the discovery of high-grade nickel at Voisey's Bay on Canada's East Coast, Mr. Friedland guided its financing and development and led negotiations for its subsequent sale to INCO for C$4.3 billion in 1996.

In December 2021, Mr. Friedland was inducted into the American Mining Hall of Fame, in recognition of his outstanding lifetime achievements advancing the American and global mineral resources industry. In January 2016, Mr. Friedland was inducted into the prestigious Canadian Mining Hall of Fame, which cited his company-building and exploration achievements, honouring him as "a dynamic, transformative force in the Canadian and international mining industries" and "one of the most recognized mining personalities and achievers in the world".

Mr. Friedland holds an undergraduate degree in political science from Reed College, Oregon, USA.

      KGALEMA P. MOTLANTHE

      Kgalema P. Motlanthe was President of the Republic of South Africa between 2008 and 2009. He was elected to the position of President by Parliament on September 25, 2008, and served until May 9, 2009.

      During Mr. Motlanthe's Presidency, he was the Chairman of the Southern African Development Community (SADC). Working in collaboration with other leaders of the 15-nation regional body, Mr. Motlanthe oversaw the implementation of Zimbabwe's Global Political Agreement. He also engaged with other world leaders in the G20 to help minimize the impact of the global financial crisis on South Africa's economy.

      Following his Presidency, Mr. Motlanthe was appointed by his successor, President Jacob Zuma, to serve as Deputy President of South Africa and served in that capacity from May 2009 until May 2014. He was also Deputy President of the ruling African National Congress (ANC) from 2007 until 2012, and Secretary-General of the ANC from 1997 to 2007.

      In earlier years, Mr. Motlanthe's role in the international movement against South Africa's apartheid system led to a 10-year prison sentence on Robben Island, the same jail where Nelson Mandela was incarcerated. Following his release in 1987, he worked for the National Union of Mineworkers (NUM) and became the union's General Secretary in 1992, succeeding Cyril Ramaphosa (South Africa's current President) who had helped to build the union and make it one of the most powerful in the country at the time.

      During his 10 years with the NUM, Mr. Motlanthe was credited with helping to establish the Mineworkers Investment Company, which was wholly owned by the NUM and made investments in companies that did not pose a conflict of interest for the union. Mr. Motlanthe played a crucial role in forming the Mineworkers Development Agency, which dealt with the developmental and social needs of retrenched miners and their families.

      Mr. Motlanthe currently heads the Kgalema Motlanthe Foundation, which is dedicated to a range of public-benefit activities, including conflict resolution, the promotion of human rights and democracy and the provision of care for pre-school-age children. Mr. Motlanthe also currently serves as the Chairperson of the OR Tambo School of Leadership and since 2020 he has served as the Chairperson of the African National Congress (ANC) Electoral Committee that oversees all elections of provincial and national leadership. In addition,

    Corporate Governance (continued)

    Independence

    The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee regularly assesses the independence of directors using, among other things, information provided at least annually by directors or information brought to its attention. The Board then reviews this independent assessment produced by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee.

    A director is independent if he or she does not have a direct or indirect material relationship with Ivanhoe. A "material relationship" is one that could, in the view of the Board, reasonably be expected to interfere with the director's ability to exercise independent judgment, in addition to specific

    relationships which are deemed material, such as an executive role within the last 3 years.

    The Board considers seven (64%) of the 11 nominated directors independent per the definition of "independence" set out in NI 52-110.

    The independent directors are Tadeu Carneiro, Martie Janse van Rensburg, Peter Meredith, Phumzile Mlambo-Ngcuka, Kgalema Motlanthe, Iman Naguib and Delphine Traoré.

    Mr. Carneiro serves as Lead Independent Director.

    Messrs. Robert Friedland and Weibao (Webber) Hao are officers of the Company and therefore are not independent. Also,

    Mr. Hao and Mr. Wu are nominee directors of the Company's largest shareholder, CITIC Metal Africa, and are executive officers of a CITIC Metal Africa affiliate. Mr. Wu succeeded Mr. Manfu Ma, who resigned from the Board effective November 26, 2025.

    Dr. Chun (James) Wang is a nominee director of Zijin Mining, the Company's second-largest shareholder and joint venture partner at the Kamoa-Kakula Copper Complex, and serves as Vice President, Overseas Operations of Zijin Mining. Dr. Wang succeeded Mr. Jinghe Chen, Former Chairman of Zijin Mining, who stepped off the Board effective March 1, 2025. Given

    their executive roles with companies affiliated with the largest shareholders of the Company, the Board determined that Messrs. Wu and Wang are not independent.

    The Board reviews director independence at least once a year. Independent directors may be required to meet from time to time to receive updates on corporate developments.

    The independent directors met twice separately in 2025. In addition, the independent directors have the opportunity to meet in-camera at every meeting of the Board. Directors may request at any time for part of a Board meeting to be held in camera without management present.

    The Board believes that meetings of the Audit Committee, Compensation and Human Resources Committee (the "Compensation Committee"), Sustainability Committee, and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee also provide adequate forums to facilitate open and candid discussion among the independent directors because each of these committees is 100% independent. A committee member may request at any time for part of a committee meeting to be held in camera without management present.

    In 2025, the Audit Committee met four times. The Compensation and Human Resources Committee met six times, and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee met

    five times.

    Meetings

    The Board meets at least quarterly and strives to meet in person at least once per year, usually in conjunction with its annual strategic planning session. The Board also holds ad-hoc meetings usually by video conference, as required. The Board met eight times in 2025 and meeting attendance was 97%.

    Board committees meet as often as necessary. The Audit Committee meets at least four times a year, and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee,

    Compensation Committee, Sustainability Committee and the Technical Committee meet at least twice a year to fulfil

    their respective mandates. You can read about 2025 meeting attendance for the Board and each committee on page 17 and committee reports for the year in review beginning on page 46.

    Copies of the Board mandate and the five committee charters are available on our website (https://www.ivanhoemines.com).

    Board composition

    The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee reviews Board composition at least annually to make sure the size and composition of our Board continues to meet our

    needs. The committee considers several factors, including any necessary or desirable competencies, our diversity policy and goals and objectives, as well as appropriate structures and procedures that allow the Board to function with the proper degree of independence from management.

    The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee continues to review the composition of our Board to maintain an appropriate balance of diverse skills, experiences and capabilities as is appropriate to our business. The committee recognizes that certain of the directors have served our Company for more than a decade and thus it continues the work to refresh the make up of the Board.

    The committee also reviews our corporate governance policies, practices and procedures in light of ongoing developments in securities law, stock exchange and regulatory requirements,

    as well as industry guidance and recommendations relating to corporate governance, including those of proxy advisory firms.

    Diversity

    important aspect of diversity, the company recognizes that

    We believe that diversity and inclusion at all levels of the organization is a competitive advantage, one that enhances performance and productivity, drives innovation, and ultimately results in business success. Our differences are our strengths, and we view our diversity as essential to innovation, creativity and the success of our Company. Although gender is one

    The Board achieved its goal of at least 30% female representation in June 2025.

    of the countries and communities in which it operates. This diversity also brings a variety of perspectives to the business environment.

    Our Board recognizes the importance of diversity at all levels, of which gender is one important aspect. Accordingly, the composition of the Board is intended to reflect a diverse mix of skills, experience, knowledge and backgrounds, including an appropriate number of women directors. In 2015, the Board developed and approved a written diversity policy aimed at increasing the representation of women and other underrepresented groups on our Board, in our management ranks, and in our Company generally, through a range of companywide diversity initiatives.

    The policy was updated in 2022 to focus on the diversity of the Board and executive management and renamed the Board and Executive Management Diversity Policy. The updated policy now includes a target percentage for the representation of women on the Board and in executive management that are reviewed at least annually. A copy of the Board and Executive Management Diversity Policy is available on the Company's website (https://www.ivanhoemines.com).

    When a Board vacancy becomes available or is made available, or when the Board determines to identify additional directors for the Board, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee specifically considers diversity and inclusion as part of its decision-making process. As part of the Company's commitment to promoting gender diversity, the Board committed to:

  • a Board composition in which women comprise at least 30% of all directors by no later than July 1, 2025, and to thereafter maintain that percentage, and

  • maintain not less than 20% of executive management positions held by women.

Female representation

◼

Of the five standing committees, four committees are chaired by women: Audit, Nominating and Corporate Governance, Compensation and Sustainability. Two women are in leadership roles on the Board, being Martie Janse van Rensburg who chairs the Audit and Compensation committees, and

Delphine Traoré who chairs the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. To date, four of the Board's five committees are at least one half female, with the exception of the Technical Committee whose three members are male.

The Board recognizes the value of diverse perspectives and will continue to seek qualified and experienced female business leaders as it considers its composition and potential renewal. We presently have four women directors, Martie Janse van Rensburg, Phumzile Mlambo-Ngcuka, Iman Naguib and Delphine Traoré, who represent 36% of the Board. The search for suitable independent director candidates with business leadership experience in Africa culminated in the election of Iman Naguib in June 2025. If all of management's nominees

for election as a director are elected, women will continue to represent 36% of the total number of directors on the Board.

Corporate Governance (continued)

Our Board is comprised of women and men of diverse cultures and professional backgrounds, with a broad-range of skills and experiences that enhance the Board's performance and productivity. Of the 11 directors on the Board as at December 31, 2025, six directors self-identified as members of a visible minority beyond gender.

A visible minority is defined by the Employment Equity Act of Canada as "persons, other than Aboriginal peoples, who are non-Caucasian in race or non-white in colour".

Skills and experience

Please see page 33 for information on diversity within our executive leadership team.

Our Board represents a broad mix of diverse skills, competencies and experience to provide strong oversight of our business, operations and future growth. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee maintains a matrix to identify and track the skills, strengths and experience of its directors across key sectors and professional fields that the Board and its committees believe are necessary to meet their respective mandates and are important to the Company's business.

The skills matrix is designed to help the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee with its analysis when reviewing the needs of the Board and succession planning. The matrix is reviewed at least annually to ensure that it remains relevant and consistent with our business and strategy. In early 2025, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee revised the skills matrix to redefine the meaning of legal experience. Since then, no changes were made to the construct of the matrix to the date of this management proxy circular.

The process requires that each nominated director completes a self-assessment of his or her skills per category on an annual basis, which the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee then reviews and may further discuss with a director if a clarification is required. The table below reflects a working understanding of the key areas listed.

Ethical business conduct

We expect the highest standards of professional and ethical conduct from everyone at Ivanhoe. Our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics (the "Code") describes our commitment to a culture of honesty, integrity, accountability and respect for our communities and provides guidelines, principles and policies to help navigate complex legal landscapes and maintain high ethical standards.

The Code applies to directors, officers, employees, consultants, contractors and advisors of the Company and its subsidiaries and covers issues ranging from compliance with laws, rules and regulations, conflicts of interest, corporate opportunities, confidentiality, and Company assets, to insider trading, improper payments, fair dealing, health and safety, compliance with environmental laws, corporate disclosure, and Company records, among other things. A companion booklet to the Code provides general information about anti-bribery laws in Canada, the United States, the United Kingdom, South Africa and the DRC and also applies to consultants, contractors, advisors and others involved in business with Ivanhoe.

Non-adherence to the Code for employees may lead to disciplinary action up to and including termination of employment, and for contractors, may lead to the termination of their contracts. The Code is reviewed regularly to ensure that it remains on par with industry standards, regulatory amendments and our operating environment.

The Company's Anti-Bribery and Anti-Corruption Policy outlines the Company's risks related to bribery and corruption and the responsibilities of employees and other persons under relevant anti-corruption laws and Company policies, and internal controls and procedures intended to address compliance and business integrity issues. We also train our employees on the Code and anti-bribery and anti-corruption compliance on a global basis. The Company's Whistleblower Policy provides a safe, anonymous way to speak up. It outlines formal reporting procedures, including a whistleblower reporting hotline, whereby employees, agents and other persons may raise concerns about or report, anonymously if preferred, questionable accounting or auditing matters, intentional and unintentional violations of applicable laws or Company policies, bribery and corruption, and other matters which may negatively impact the Company's business and reputation.

The Board promotes a culture of ethical business conduct through communication and supervision as part of their stewardship responsibility. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee has been mandated by the Board to review the Company's governance policies and procedures in light of ongoing developments in securities law, stock exchanges and regulatory requirements relating to matters of corporate governance. It also assists the Board in dealing with conflicts of interest issues as contemplated by the Code and resolves reports of illegal or unethical behaviour that are a violation of the Code.

Anyone can report a suspected violation of Company policies or applicable laws. Reports are confidential and can be made anonymously. Our whistleblower reporting system is managed by an independent third party and generates alerts for the Audit Committee, the Manager, Internal Audit, the Chief Financial Officer and Vice President, Compliance. The Manager, Internal Audit reviews all reports when received, and then investigates on the committee's behalf, either individually or together with the appropriate report investigator, any alleged breaches of the Code or other policies, among other things, and reports the findings to the relevant committee chair in accordance with the Whistleblower Policy.



The Company prohibits retaliatory action against any director, officer, or employee who, in good faith, reports a concern about questionable ethical, moral, accounting, auditing or other matters.

A copy of the code is on our website (https://www.ivanhoemines.com) and on SEDAR+ (https://www.sedarplus.ca). You can also ask for a copy by writing to the Vice President, Compliance and Corporate Secretary, see page 12 for contact details.

Confiicts of interest

Some Board members are directors or officers of, or have significant shareholdings in, other mineral resource companies that may participate in ventures similar to Ivanhoe, creating the possibility for a conflict of interest, including a conflict of interest when negotiating and concluding terms with such other mineral resource companies.

If a director has an interest in a material contract or material transaction involving Ivanhoe, he or she must disclose their interest to the Board and not participate in a vote on a contract or transaction per applicable law. It is not always easy to determine if a conflict of interest exists, so we encourage any potential conflicts to be reported to a member of senior management who is independent of the potential conflict. The management representative will assess the issue in consultation with legal counsel. If deemed appropriate, the Board may establish a special committee of independent and/or non-conflicted directors to review a matter where one or more directors, or members of management, may have a conflict.

Corporate Governance (continued)

Equity ownership of non-executive directors

Directors are required to own Ivanhoe securities, unless specifically exempted, to align their interests with those of our shareholders and give them a vested interest in our future success.

The stock ownership policy for non-executive directors provides that in addition to shares, qualifying securities now include DSUs that non-executive directors have elected to settle in shares. In addition, non-executive directors must now hold

the value of two times the basic annual retainer in qualifying Ivanhoe securities and meet that requirement by December 31 of the fourth year following the date (i) they joined the Board, or

(ii) the most recent amendment to this policy was implemented increasing the ownership target provision. Effective January 1, 2025, the basic annual retainer for non-executive directors was increased to $75,000 resulting in a minimum securityholding of a value of $150,000.

The Board has waived the application of the stock ownership policy to Messrs. Hao and Wu given their respective executive roles as Chairman and General Manager of CITIC Metal Group Limited, an affiliated company of our largest shareholder, CITIC Metal Africa Investments Limited. The Board also has waived the application of the stock ownership policy to Dr. Wang given his executive role as Vice President, Overseas Operations of Zijin Mining, the Company's second largest shareholder.

Recognizing that equity securities fluctuate in value, once a director reaches the minimum requirement, we consider such directors in compliance as long as they continue to maintain their holdings. Our non-executive directors who are subject to the policy currently meet the requirement.

Mr. Friedland is an executive director and is subject to share ownership requirements for executive management (see page 94). Mr. Friedland is the Company's third largest shareholder and has met this requirement.

Management

Management functions are performed by directors or senior officers. The President and Chief Executive Officer is responsible for our day-to-day operations and, in conjunction with the executive and senior management teams, implements the strategic initiatives approved by the Board. The President

and Chief Executive Officer also reports to the Board regularly on our short-term results and long-term business development activities.

Position descriptions

The Board has adopted position descriptions for the President and Chief Executive Officer, Chief Operating Officer, Chief Financial Officer and Lead Independent Director and the chairs of each standing committee.

Director orientation and continuing education

The Board is responsible for our director development program.

Orientation

New directors receive information about their duties and obligations and Ivanhoe's business and operations and have access to minutes and other documents presented at recent Board meetings. New directors receive briefings from management on our business and prospects (positive and negative) so they have a good foundation of knowledge

as they start their duties as a director. They also have an opportunity to meet with our auditor and legal counsel.

New directors also receive a Director Handbook, a corporate governance manual with copies of our policies, charters, incentive programs, organizational chart and other important information for background and reference. The manual is updated regularly and is available online on the Board's electronic board portal.

Continuing education

Each director is responsible for staying informed about our business and outside developments that could have an impact on our Company.

We do not have a formal continuing education program however, directors receive regular updates from management about our business, including financial, business and strategic information.

Directors also receive special presentations, relevant articles, papers and other information from management and outside advisors so they have up-to-date knowledge and understanding of Ivanhoe's business, industry developments corporate governance, emerging compensation and

environmental, social and governance trends and the legal and regulatory environments. Selected press clippings regarding the mining industry, actions by competitors, and commodity issues are distributed daily.

In conjunction with the Lead Independent Director, the Corporate Secretary advises directors on educational opportunities from time to time. Directors are also encouraged to take external courses or attend webinars, seminars or industry conferences relevant to Ivanhoe and our business.

Costs relating to director participation in such events are generally reimbursed 100%. In 2025, the following courses were attended by directors:

Future plans include promoting an intentional, ongoing culture of continuous learning that includes refresher sessions for veteran Board members.

We offer directors the opportunity to visit our project sites and facilities to meet our employees and gain additional insight into our business and encourage them to do so. Director site visits are usually held in October or November. Last year, a site visit to the

Company's three principal projects was arranged for the Board in November 2025 but was postponed to February 2026 due to issues with local airport access.

We also continued to provide directors with monthly photo journals that are also available to investors. Directors' continuing education and special presentations during 2025 included the following:

Board assessment and succession

Assessment

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is responsible for the annual Board assessment process which includes Board and committee performance assessments, as well as a director peer feedback survey to provide candid feedback to individual directors.

Directors complete comprehensive questionnaires to rate board, individual committee and peer performance in key areas and provide a qualitative assessment in each of those

areas. The questionnaires are structured to elicit comments and observations on performance and identify areas for improvement. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee reviews the results, identifies areas that require follow-up if required, and prepares a summary report for the Board.

The committee chair reviews the results with the chairs of the respective committees and develops action plans in areas that have been identified as requiring improvement. The committee chair presents the summary of the assessments to the Board. The committee monitors the issues identified for follow-up and updates the Board periodically as required.

Following the 2025 assessment process, the committees and Board were generally satisfied with their respective performances.

Succession

Our approach to Board renewal is to ensure that the Board is representative of the skills and experience needed to oversee our business. We strive to ensure that Board transition is completed in an orderly fashion to maintain the right balance of continuity and institutional memory while adding fresh perspectives. Our Board has determined not to implement term limits or a mandatory retirement age for directors because it would risk losing directors with a deep understanding of our company and business. As mine development can routinely take more than a decade from discovery to first production, the Board believes that Ivanhoe

and our shareholders benefit from directors who have nurtured strategic relationships and significant experience with our projects and the mining industry in general.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee keeps abreast of necessary or desirable competencies and reviews Board composition regularly. It considers Board size, director qualifications and skill sets, diversity and other

factors important to Ivanhoe. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee maintains a skills matrix of the skills, strengths and experience that the Board and its committees believe are important for overseeing our business and future growth. You can learn more about each director's skills and experience in the director profiles beginning on page 18 and about the skills matrix on page 34.

Our diversity policy requires the committee and the Board to consider diversity, including the representation of women, backgrounds and other attributes when identifying and nominating director candidates. The Board also considers

education, experience, skill sets relative to the balance of skills required by the Board and committees to meet their respective mandates and any regulatory requirements. Iman Naguib,

a candidate with exceptional financial, business and leadership experience, was elected at the June 2025 meeting.

If all of management's nominees for election as a director are elected at the June 18, 2026 meeting, women will continue to represent 36% of the total number of directors. This will meet the Company's target of 30% female representation on

the Board.

You can read about our director nominees in more detail in the director profiles starting on page 18.

Shareholder Engagement

Ivanhoe Mines is committed to regular engagement with its shareholders, bondholders, industry analysts, and various stakeholders to ensure we communicate effectively, and that feedback is duly received.

Corporate Governance (continued)

We believe that the transparent and timely disclosure of information regarding the Company's performance is critical to achieving the highest standard of corporate governance, which is at the core of our values. Further, we believe that regular engagement with our investors, consisting of both our shareholders and bondholders, also provides valuable insight to assist our senior management team and Board in improving Ivanhoe's standards of disclosure and corporate governance.

Our senior management team and the Board maintain regular interaction with our investors and industry analysts by providing several open lines of communication. We also encourage investors to engage with our directors and senior management by attending the annual general and special meeting, which provides an opportunity for the Company to address questions from our shareholders and prospective investors.

Our senior management and directors engaged with the Company's investors frequently throughout 2025. This was achieved mainly through international industry conferences and marketing roadshows, as well as pre-arranged events such as webcasts discussing our quarterly earnings and project-specific events, including interactive question-and-answer sessions. In addition, the Company hosted multiple site tours of the Company's key project sites. Requests for investor calls and face-to-face meetings were also granted on an ad-hoc basis.

During 2025, the Company remained active on its social media channels, most notably X and LinkedIn, where follower counts and engagement metrics continued to increase.

During 2025, the main topics raised by investors focused on the latest operational and project developments, as well as ongoing and planned future capital allocation at Ivanhoe's

principal operations. This included the financial and operational performance of Kamoa-Kakula, especially following the seismic event in May 2025, as well as at the Kipushi Mine and the Platreef Mine. Ivanhoe's exploration activities continue to be of great interest, particularly the Western Forelands Exploration Project in the DRC, as well as other new projects in Zambia, Angola, South Africa, and Kazakhstan. Other topics of interest include our future growth plans, government relations, sociopolitical conditions and environmental, social, and governance matters.

During 2025, Ivanhoe Mines' senior management and directors engaged directly with 90% of the Company's top 20 shareholders, many of whom have visited our project sites in recent years.

During 2025, we welcomed several new shareholders, as well as several shareholders that increased their ownership in Ivanhoe Mines, most notably Qatar Investment Authority (QIA). Cantor Fitzgerald and Stifel Canada initiated analyst

coverage on Ivanhoe Mines in 2025, taking the total number of industry analysts covering the Company to 15. The Company's senior management team includes a team of investor relations professionals dedicated to daily communication with our investors and industry analysts worldwide. Our investor relations contact information is available on the Company's website at https://www.ivanhoemines.com/contact/.

Over the past 12 months, we continued our investor communication of the Company's sustainability efforts. This included publishing quarterly and annual sustainability reports and engaging with ESG rating agencies. The annual and quarterly Sustainability Reports are available on the Company's website

at https://www.ivanhoemines.com/investors/document-library/#sustainability.

Throughout the year, we provide regular updates to investors through our annual information form, financial statements, management's discussion and analysis, annual and quarterly Sustainability Reports, and news releases, to ensure any updates impacting the Company and its performance are delivered to shareholders promptly. Company filings can be found on the Company website at https://www.ivanhoemines.com and on SEDAR+ at https://www.sedarplus.ca.
