SPECIAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS CALLED BY A CONCERNED SHAREHOLDER OF COPPER NORTH MINING CORP.

A special meeting of holders of common shares of Copper North Mining Corp. has been called for Jan. 29, 2020. The meeting has been called by H. Coyne & Sons Ltd., a concerned shareholder of Copper North. A notice of special meeting was filed on Copper North's SEDAR profile on Nov. 29, 2019, confirming a record date of Dec. 5, 2019, and setting out certain other details.

As noted in the news release of Copper North dated Nov. 12, 2019, the concerned shareholder provided a shareholder meeting requisition notice dated Nov. 6, 2019. The requisition demanded the convening of a special meeting of shareholders at which meeting shareholders would be asked to vote on a special resolution to remove all of the incumbent directors except Susan Craig and Loy Chunpongtong; an ordinary resolution setting the number of directors of the company at four for the next year; and electing or appointing Robert Macdonald and Dwayne McInnis as directors of the company to fill the vacancies created by the removal of certain incumbent directors.

Under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia), the directors of Copper North had 21 days after the date on which the requisition was received to call a meeting of shareholders to transact the business stated in the requisition, failing which the concerned shareholder would be permitted to send notice of a meeting to transact the business set out in the requisition. The directors of Copper North did not call the meeting, nor did they provide any response to the requisition. Accordingly, the concerned shareholder called the meeting and provided notice of the meeting as set forth herein.
