DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in reports filed with, or submitted to, securities regulatory authorities is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified under Canadian and United States securities laws. As of December 31, 2025, an evaluation was carried out under the supervision of, and with the participation of, the Corporation's management, including the President and Chief Executive Officer and the Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the Corporation's disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in the applicable Canadian and United States securities laws. Based on that evaluation, the President and Chief Executive Officer and the Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer concluded that such disclosure controls and procedures are effective as of December 31, 2025.

MANAGEMENT'S ANNUAL REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

Management of the Corporation is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is designed by, or under the supervision of, the Corporation's President and Chief Executive Officer and the Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and effected by the Corporation's Board, management and other personnel to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

The Corporation's management, including the Corporation's President and Chief Executive Officer and the Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer, assessed the effectiveness of the Corporation's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, based on the criteria set forth in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this assessment, management concluded that, as of December 31, 2025, the Corporation's internal control over financial reporting was effective.

Deloitte LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, has audited the Annual Financial Statements, and has included its attestation report on management's assessment of the Corporation's internal control over financial reporting, which is found on page 2 of the Annual Financial Statements.

Changes may include such activities as implementing new, more efficient systems, consolidating activities, and migrating processes.

During the year ended December 31, 2025, there have been no changes in the Corporation's internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Corporation's internal control over financial reporting.

TABULAR DISCLOSURE OF CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS

For tabular disclosure of the Corporation's contractual obligations, see page 16 of the Annual MD&A, under the heading "Liquidity and Capital Resources - Contractual Obligations".

COMPARISON OF NYSE CORPORATE GOVERNANCE RULES

The Corporation is subject to a variety of corporate governance guidelines and requirements enacted by the Toronto Stock Exchange (the "TSX"), the Canadian securities regulatory authorities, the New York Stock Exchange (the "NYSE") and the SEC. The Corporation is listed on the NYSE and, although the Corporation is not required to comply with most of the NYSE corporate governance requirements to which the Corporation would be subject if it were a U.S. corporation, the Corporation's governance practices differ from those required of U.S. domestic issuers only as described herein. The NYSE rules for U.S. domestic issuers require shareholder approval of all equity compensation plans (as defined in the NYSE rules) regardless of whether new issuances, treasury shares or shares that the Corporation has purchased in the open market are used. The TSX rules require shareholder approval of share compensation arrangements involving new issuances of shares, and of certain amendments to such arrangements, but do not require such approval if the compensation arrangements involve only shares purchased in the open market. The NYSE rules for U.S. domestic issuers also require shareholder approval of certain transactions or series of related transactions that result in the issuance of common shares, or securities convertible into or exercisable for common shares, that have, or will have upon issuance, voting power equal to or in excess of 20% of the voting power outstanding prior to the transaction or if the issuance of common shares, or securities convertible into or exercisable for common shares, are, or will be upon issuance, equal to or in excess of 20% of the number of common shares outstanding prior to the transaction. The TSX rules require shareholder approval of acquisition transactions resulting in dilution in excess of 25%. The TSX also has broad general discretion to require shareholder approval in connection with any issuances of listed securities. The Corporation complies with the TSX rules described in this paragraph.

UNDERTAKING

The Corporation undertakes to make available, in person or by telephone, representatives to respond to inquiries made by the SEC staff, and to furnish promptly, when requested to do so by the SEC staff, information relating to: the securities in relation to which the obligation to file an annual report on Form 40-F arises; or transactions in said securities.

DISCLOSURE PURSUANT TO SECTION 13(r) OF THE EXCHANGE ACT

In accordance with Section 13(r) of the Exchange Act, the Corporation is required to include certain disclosures in its periodic reports if it or any of its affiliates knowingly engaged in certain specified activities during the period covered by the report. Neither the Corporation nor its affiliates have knowingly engaged in any transaction or dealing reportable under Section 13(r) of the Exchange Act during the year ended December 31, 2025.

CONSENT TO SERVICE OF PROCESS

Any change to the name or address of the Corporation's agent for service shall be communicated promptly to the SEC by amendment to the Form F-X referencing the file number of the Corporation.

INCORPORATION BY REFERENCE

The Corporation's Annual Report on Form 40-F (other than the section entitled "Credit Ratings" in Exhibit 99.1 to this Form 40-F) is incorporated by reference into the Corporation's Registration Statements on Form S-8 (File No. 333-264838), Form S-8 (File No. 333-276111), Form S-8 (File No. 333-276112), Form S-8 (File No. 333-281205), Form S-8 (File No. 333-226663), Form S-8 (File No. 333-236213), Form F-3 (File No. 333-279253), and Form F-10 (File No. 333-283687).
