The Audit Committee of Centerra Gold Inc. has approved the following procedures for the confidential and anonymous submission of both employee and non-employee complaints regarding violations of Centerra’s Code of Ethics, including concerns regarding accounting and auditing matters.
Centerra’s Code of Ethics provides that any employee may submit a good faith complaint or concern regarding suspected violations of the Code of Ethics, including concerns regarding accounting or auditing matters, confidentially without fear of dismissal or retaliation of any kind. Every reasonable effort will be made to ensure the confidentiality of those furnishing information.
For greater certainty, this complaint procedure does not preclude, or purport to preclude, any employee or other person or company from providing information to any law enforcement agency or recognized self-regulatory organization about an act that such person reasonably believes may be contrary to any law, including any securities law, or a by-law or other regulatory instrument of a recognized self-regulatory organization.
