Letter to shareholders

Dear Shareholder,

I am pleased to welcome you to Cameco’s 2014 annual meeting of shareholders. This will be my first annual meeting as your chair, and I am excited about our progress in 2013 and the year ahead.

2013 was a busy year for the board with five major priorities:

• strategic focus and value creation

• risk oversight

• financial oversight by the audit and finance committee

• board diversity

• board efficiency and effectiveness.

We spent a significant amount of time working with the management team on the corporate strategy to ensure it addressed the near and medium-term challenges in the nuclear industry, while positioning Cameco to benefit from the strong long-term supply and demand fundamentals.

We enhanced the risk oversight process by initiating quarterly presentations by management to the committees or, in some cases, the full board to allow a fuller understanding of the major enterprise risks and management’s mitigation strategies.

The audit and finance committee assumed responsibility for oversight of certain financial matters, including the preliminary financial review of major transactions, financings and investments prior to review by the full board.

Our work resulted in an adjustment to our growth plans to better match market opportunities which we believe will position Cameco to deliver the best value to shareholders. As we move through 2014 and despite current challenges, we remain confident of a bright future for both Cameco and the nuclear industry.

One of the board’s key responsibilities is to ensure it has the right skills, experience and qualities necessary to guide Cameco in achieving its strategic goals. Strong board leadership, continuing education and succession planning at the board level are important to Cameco’s success.

The board added significant financial expertise over the last few years through two new directors, enhancing the focus on financial performance for Cameco’s strategic growth and direction. This has assisted the board in its deliberations on financial and financing matters and other business opportunities.

The board also adopted a diversity policy that reflects broad diversity characteristics and a stated objective of achieving at least 25% female directors.

2013 PERFORMANCE HIGHLIGHTS

Despite the challenging market environment, Cameco delivered another strong year of corporate performance. Production and unit costs were generally on track, safety and environmental performance remained solid and financial results were again strong:

• adjusted net earnings of $445 million¹

• record annual revenue of $2.4 billion

• annual gross profit of $607 million from the nuclear business

• record annual revenue of $1.6 billion from the uranium segment.

2013 Successes

• Secured 10-year licences for the McArthur River, Key Lake and Rabbit Lake operations.

• Secured an eight-year operating licence for the Cigar Lake mine.

• Achieved record annual production at McArthur River/Key Lake of 20.1 million pounds (our share 14.1 million).

• Increased uranium production by 8% to 23.6 million pounds in 2013 from 21.9 million pounds in 2012.

• Successfully tested the jet boring system in waste and began commissioning in ore at Cigar Lake.

• Direct administration costs were $3 million lower than in 2012, which reflects the effects of our restructuring actitivies.

14.7%

ONE-YEAR TSR

Based on the closing price of Cameco common shares on the TSX for the year ending December 31, 2013, including reinvestment of dividends

SEVEN AWARDS IN 2013

• Top 100 Employers in Canada (Mediacorp)

• 10 Best Companies to Work For (Financial Post)

• Saskatchewan’s Top Employers

• Canada’s Best Diversity Employers (Mediacorp)

• Canada’s Top Employers for Young People (Mediacorp)

• Canada’s Top Employers for People over 40 (Mediacorp)

This year 13 nominated directors have been put forward for election to the board. Catherine Gignac was appointed to the board on January 1, 2014 and is standing for election for the first time. Catherine brings excellent skills in finance, project value analysis and mineral resource estimation. The other 12 nominated directors were elected at our 2013 annual meeting.

LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS     1

All 13 nominated directors represent a mix of diverse skills and business experience necessary to oversee Cameco’s strategic direction, and three of the 13 (23%) are women.

The board also spent time on improving its own process to ensure we are efficient and effective in carrying out the duties tasked by shareholders. We revised our meeting agendas to allow more time for strategic and business discussion, and developed a standard for management to use for preparing board and committee materials and highlighting key points for consideration. We also improved our own review process by revising the questionnaires the board, committees and individual directors use in the assessment process to enhance the quality of the feedback and make the process more robust.

Finally, I want to thank Victor Zaleschuk for his wisdom and steady hand in chairing the Cameco board for the past 10 years. Under his leadership, the company successfully met and dealt with multiple challenges in this difficult market. Victor continues to serve on the board, and I appreciate his guidance and advice as I assumed my new position as chair of the board.

Take some time to read the attached management proxy circular. It provides important information about the meeting, voting, the nominated directors, our governance practices and director and executive compensation. See also the report by the human resources and compensation committee to learn more about Cameco’s executive compensation program and decisions by the committee and the board on executive pay for 2013 (see page 51).

The board and management thank you for your continued confidence.

Sincerely,

Neil McMillan

Chair of the board

The director profiles starting on page 13 give information about their background and experience and membership on Cameco board committees.

We recommend that you votefor all of the nominated directors.

AUDITORS

You will vote on reappointing the auditors. The auditors fulfill a critical role, reinforcing the importance of a diligent and transparent financial reporting process that strengthens investor confidence in our financial reporting. See page 37 for a report on our external auditor assessment.

The board, on the recommendation of the audit and finance committee, has proposed that KPMG LLP (KPMG) be reappointed as our auditors until the end of our next annual meeting. KPMG, or its predecessor firms, have been our auditors since incorporation. You can votefor reappointing KPMG, or you canwithhold your vote.

WE NEED A QUORUM

We can only hold the meeting and transact business if we have aquorum at the beginning of the meeting — where the people currently in attendance hold, or represent by proxy, at least 25% of our total common shares issued and outstanding.

KPMG provides us with three types of services:

• audit services — generally relate to the audit and review of annual and interim financial statements and notes, conducting the annual audits of affiliates, auditing our internal controls over financial reporting and providing other services that may be required by regulators. These may include services for registration statements, prospectuses, reports and other documents that are filed with securities regulators, or other documents issued for securities offerings.

• audit-related services — include advising on accounting matters, attest services not directly linked to the financial statements that are required by regulators and conducting audits of employee benefit plans.

• tax services — relate to tax compliance and tax advice that are beyond the scope of the annual audit. These include reviewing transfer-pricing documentation and correspondence with tax authorities, preparing corporate tax returns, and advice on international tax matters, tax implications of capital market transactions and capital tax.

The table below shows the fees we paid to KPMG and its affiliates for services in 2012 and 2013.

HAVING A ‘SAY ON PAY’

You will vote on our approach to executive compensation as disclosed in this circular. This is a non-binding advisory vote that will provide the board and the human resources and compensation committee with important feedback.

Please take some time to read about our compensation strategy and how we assess performance, make compensation decisions and manage compensation risk (see page 57 and pages 63 through 74).

You can votefor oragainst our approach to executive compensation through the following resolution:

Resolved, on an advisory basis and not to diminish the role and responsibilities of the board of directors, that the shareholders accept the approach to executive compensation disclosed in Cameco’s management proxy circular delivered in advance of the 2014 annual meeting of shareholders.

We recommend that you votefor our approach to executive compensation.

The board believes it is important for shareholders to have a timely and effective way to provide input on this matter. This is the fifth year that shareholders will have an opportunity to have a ‘say on pay’, and we continue to evaluate the most effective means of achieving this objective.

The board and the human resources and compensation committee discussed last year’s results and the trend since 2010 on shareholders’ views on our approach to executive compensation. These discussions provided important background information and insights for our 2013 compensation review and ongoing reviews for ways to encourage dialogue and outreach with shareholders generally (see pages 27 and 45).

Following this year’s vote, the board will again examine the level of interest and nature of shareholder comments and evolving best practices by other companies.

MORE ABOUT HAVING A SAY

We introduced ‘say on pay’ in 2010 and have held an advisory vote every year since. We continue to monitor developments in executive compensation and evolving best practices to make sure our programs and decisions are appropriate.

You can write to the board or committee chair about your views on executive compensation.

AMENDING THE BYLAWS

You will vote on approving changes to our bylaws.

We have made changes to modernize our bylaws and reflect current and recommended corporate governance practices. On February 7, 2014, the board approved the adoption of the Amended and Restated Bylaw No. 7, which addresses various procedural matters in connection with the conduct of shareholder meetings and deletes sections that restate provisions of theCanada Business Corporations Act (CBCA).

The Amended and Restated Bylaw No. 7 also combines Cameco’s bylaws that were previously referred to as the general bylaw (No. 6) and the borrowing bylaw (No. 5).

The amended bylaw is subject to confirmation and approval by shareholders at the meeting, and is attached to the circular as Appendix D.

You can voteforor against the following resolution, with or without variation:

“THAT the Amended and Restated Bylaw No. 7 of Cameco Corporation, as approved by the board on February 7, 2014, as set out in Appendix D of Cameco’s proxy circular dated March 10, 2014, be and is confirmed.”

We recommend that you votefor amending the bylaws.

6    CAMECO CORPORATION

The amendments to our bylaws relating to the conduct of shareholder meetings cover four areas, as summarized below.

1. Waiving proxy time limits and determining validity of proxies

Amendments to section 5.7 provide that:

• an instrument of proxy will comply with CBCA requirements and any board requirements, or will be otherwise acceptable to the chair of the meeting

• the chair’s decision about a proxy’s validity will be final and binding, and

• the chair reserves the right to waive any deadlines for submitting proxies, similar to language commonly found in the bylaws of other Canadian companies and management information circulars, proxy forms and voting instructions forms.

2. Adjourning shareholder meetings

Section 5.10 is new and clarifies how a shareholder meeting may be adjourned and allows the chair to adjourn a meeting without consent of the meeting in certain circumstances.

The chair has a duty to preserve order at shareholder meetings and may adjourn a meeting without consent of the meeting if:

• quorum is lacking at the start of the meeting

• all business of the meeting has been concluded, or

• the meeting becomes disorderly and it has become impossible to transact business. As the CBCA does not specifically deal with adjournment procedures, clarifying the procedures helps to promote orderliness of shareholder meetings. The chair must always exercise discretion in good faith and with a view to Cameco’s best interests.

3. Looking behind votes to confirm ownership

Section 5.11 is new and allows the chair of a meeting to ask for evidence as appropriate to determine a person’s interest in Cameco and his or her authority to vote.

It clarifies the chair’s ability to:

• ask about a non-resident and determine compliance with our non-resident voting restrictions in exercising the chair’s power to set rules according to the company articles

• ask about share ownership positions in addition to us requesting ownership declarations from shareholders.

4. Introducing an advance notice bylaw for director nominations

Section 6.2 is new and sets out advance notice requirements for nominating directors. We must receive the name and other information about a nominated director between 30 to 65 days before a shareholder meeting.

The bylaw provides a transparent, structured and fair process for nominating directors so that all shareholders can be made aware of the nomination in advance of a shareholder meeting, in the event of potential proxy contests, regardless of whether shareholders are planning to vote by proxy or attend the meeting.

OTHER BUSINESS

We did not receive any shareholder proposals for this meeting, and are not aware of any other items of business to be considered at the meeting. If other items of business are properly brought before the meeting, you (or your proxyholder) can vote as you see fit.

Voting results

We will disclose the voting results on the items of business in our report on the 2014 annual meeting voting results, available on our website

(cameco.com/investors/shareholder_information/annual_meeting)

and on SEDAR.

2014 MANAGEMENT PROXY CIRCULAR    7

Who can vote

We have common shares and one class B share, but only holders of our common shares have full voting rights.

If you held common shares at the close of business on March 31, 2014 (therecord date), you or the person you appoint as your proxyholder can attend the annual meeting and vote your shares. Each Cameco common share you own represents one vote, except where the ownership and voting restrictions apply.

As of March 10, 2014, we had 395,697,737 common shares issued and outstanding.

Ownership and voting restrictions

There are restrictions on owning, controlling and voting Cameco common shares whether you own the shares as a registered shareholder, hold them beneficially, or control your investment interest in Cameco directly or indirectly. These are described in theEldorado Nuclear Limited Reorganization and Divestiture Act(Canada) (ENL Reorganization Act) and our company articles.

The following is a summary of the limitations listed in our company articles. See Appendix A on page 98 for the definitions in the ENL Reorganization Act, including definitions ofresident andnon-resident.

RESIDENTS

A Canadian resident, either individually or together with associates, cannot hold, beneficially own or control shares or other Cameco securities, directly or indirectly, representing more than 25% of the total votes that can be cast to elect directors.

NON-RESIDENTS

A non-resident of Canada, either individually or together with associates, cannot hold, beneficially own or control shares or other Cameco securities, directly or indirectly, representing more than 15% of the total votes that can be cast to elect directors.

VOTING RESTRICTIONS

All votes cast at the meeting by non-residents, either beneficially or controlled directly or indirectly, will be counted and pro-rated collectively to limit the proportion of votes cast by non-residents to no more than 25% of the total shareholder votes cast at the meeting.

WHAT WE MEAN BY RESIDENCY

Cameco shares have restrictions on ownership and voting for residents and non-residents of Canada. Ownership restrictions were put in place so that Cameco would remain Canadian controlled. The uranium mining industry has restrictions on ownership by non-residents.

Aresident is anyone who is not anon-resident. Residents can be individuals, corporations, trusts and governments or government agencies.

Anon-resident is:

• anindividual, other than a Canadian citizen, who is not ordinarily resident in Canada

• acorporation

• that was incorporated, formed or otherwise organized outside Canada, or

• that is controlled by non-residents, either directly or indirectly

• atrust

• that was established by a non-resident, other than a trust for the administration of a pension fund for individuals where the majority of the individuals are residents or

• where non-residents have more than 50% of the beneficial interest

• aforeign government orforeign government agency.

ENFORCEMENT

The company articles allow us to enforce the ownership and voting restrictions by:

• suspending voting rights

• forfeiting dividends

• prohibiting the issue and transfer of Cameco shares

• requiring the sale or disposition of Cameco shares

• suspending all other shareholder rights.

To verify compliance with restrictions on ownership and voting of Cameco shares, we require shareholders to declare their residency, ownership of Cameco shares and other things relating to the restrictions. Nominees such as banks, trust companies, securities brokers or other financial institutions who hold the shares on behalf of beneficial shareholders need to make the declaration on their behalf.

8    CAMECO CORPORATION

If you own the shares in your name, you will need to complete the residency declaration on the enclosed proxy form. Copies will be available at the meeting if you are planning to attend the meeting. If we do not receive your residency declaration, we may consider you to be a non-resident of Canada.

The chair of the meeting may ask shareholders and their nominees for additional information to verify compliance with our ownership and voting restrictions. The chair of the meeting will use the declarations and other information to decide whether our ownership restrictions have been complied with.

Principal holders of common shares

Based on a Schedule 13G that BlackRock, Inc. of New York, New York filed with the US Securities Exchange Commission on February 3, 2014, it and its subsidiaries held 23,142,966 common shares, or approximately 5.9%, of our total outstanding common shares as of December 31, 2013. Management, to the best of its knowledge, is not aware of any other shareholder holding 5% or more of our common shares.

Our class B share

The province of Saskatchewan holds our one class B share. This entitles the province to receive notices of and attend all meetings of shareholders, for any class or series.

The class B shareholder can only vote at a meeting of class B shareholders, and votes as a separate class if there is a proposal to:

• amend Part 1 of Schedule B of the articles, which states that:

• Cameco’s registered office and head office operations must be in Saskatchewan

• the vice-chairman of the board, chief executive officer (CEO), president, chief financial officer (CFO) and generally all of the senior officers (vice-presidents and above) must live in Saskatchewan

• all annual meetings of shareholders must be held in Saskatchewan

• amalgamate, if it would require an amendment to Part 1 of Schedule B, or

• amend the articles, in a way that would change the rights of class B shareholders.

HOW CAMECO WAS FORMED

Cameco Corporation was formed in 1988 by privatizing two crown corporations, combining the uranium mining and milling operations of Saskatchewan Mining Development Corporation and the uranium mining, refining and conversion operations of Eldorado Nuclear Limited.

Cameco received these assets in exchange for:

• assuming substantially all of the current liabilities and certain other liabilities of the two companies

• issuing common shares

• issuing one class B share

• issuing promissory notes.

The company was incorporated under theCanada Business Corporations Act.

You can find more information about our history in our2013 annual information form, which is available on our website (cameco.com/investors).

2014 MANAGEMENT PROXY CIRCULAR    11

About the nominated directors

Our board of directors is responsible for overseeing management and our business affairs. As shareholders, you elect the board to act in the best interests of Cameco.

SEE THE FOLLOWING PAGES FOR MORE INFORMATION ABOUT THE DIRECTORS:

•	Director profiles	13
•	Meeting attendance	20
•	2013 Director voting results	21
•	Board diversity	21
•	Skills and experience	22
•	Director development	23

This year the board has decided that 13 directors are to be elected. All of the nominated directors currently serve on the board.

You can vote for all of the nominated directors, vote for some of them and withhold votes for others, or withhold votes for all of them. Unless otherwise instructed, the named proxyholders will votefor each of the nominated directors (see pages 13 to 19).

Our goal is to assemble a board with the appropriate background, knowledge, skills and diversity to effectively carry out its duties, oversee Cameco’s strategy and business affairs and foster a climate that allows the board to constructively guide and challenge management.

Key attributes

We expect all board members to be financially literate, independent minded and team players. The nominating, corporate governance and risk committee also considers four other factors when assessing potential candidates:

• the board’s overall mix of skills and experience

• how actively the candidates participate in meetings and develop an understanding of our business

• their character, integrity, judgment and record of achievement

• diversity (including gender, aboriginal heritage, age and geographic representation such as Canada, the US, Europe and Asia).

SERVING TOGETHER ON OTHER BOARDS

Anne McLellan and Victor Zaleschuk serve together on the board of Agrium Inc., but they do not serve together on any committees.

See page 31 for our governance policy on serving on other boards.

Catherine Gignac joined the board on January 1, 2014. She brings experience in mining, exploration and operations, finance and investment banking. SeeSkills and experience on page 22 for more information about the board.

All of the nominated directors are independent, except for Tim Gitzel, our president and CEO, and Donald Deranger, non-executive chair of the board of Points Athabasca Contracting Limited Partnership, an aboriginal contractor in northern Saskatchewan that provides construction and other services to Cameco in the region. SeeIndependence on page 30 for more information.

Each of the nominated directors is eligible to serve as a director and has expressed their willingness to do so. Directors who are elected will serve until the end of the next annual meeting, or until a successor is elected or appointed.

Our policy on majority voting

Directors require a plurality of votes to be elected, however, a director who receives morewithhold thanfor votes must offer to resign. Our nominating, corporate governance and risk committee will review the matter and recommend to the board whether to accept the resignation or not. The director does not participate in any board or committee deliberations on the matter.

The board will announce its decision within 90 days of the meeting. It may appoint a new director to fill the vacancy if it accepts the offer, and will disclose the reasons why if it rejects the offer.

We believe our majority voting policy reflects good governance. The board adopted the policy in 2006 on the recommendation of the nominating, corporate governance and risk committee.

Director profiles

The table below provides information about each nominated director as of March 10, 2014, including their background and experience and memberships on other public company boards. Eleven of the 13 nominated directors (85%) are independent. Information about meeting attendance is for 2013 and holdings of Cameco shares and deferred share units (DSUs) is as of December 31, 2013. Each director has provided the information about the Cameco shares they own or exercise control or direction over.

Non-executive directors receive part of their compensation in DSUs, aligning the interests of our directors and shareholders. We calculated the total value of Cameco shares and DSUs using $22.04 for 2013 and $19.59 for 2012, the year-end closing prices of Cameco shares on the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX). All non-executive directors who have been on the board for two years or more meet the share ownership guideline for directors (see page 47). When reviewing compliance with our share ownership guidelines, we value each director’s holdings at the price they were acquired or the year-end closing price of Cameco shares on the TSX, whichever is higher, in accordance with our share ownership guidelines. See page 49 for the percentage of compensation each non-executive director received in DSUs in 2013.

Tim Gitzel, as the only executive director, does not receive DSUs or any other director compensation.

2014 MANAGEMENT PROXY CIRCULAR    19

Meeting attendance

We believe that an active board governs more effectively. We expect our directors to attend all board meetings, all of their committee meetings, and the annual meeting of shareholders. Directors can participate by teleconference if they are unable to attend board and committee meetings in person. The board must have a majority of directors in attendance to hold a meeting and transact business. In 2013, the board and committees met in camera without management present at all meetings and the independent directors met in camera once.

The table below shows the number of meetings each director attended in 2013. All directors attended the 2013 annual meeting. Our board chair is an ex-officio member of each board committee. Victor Zaleschuk attended nine committee meetings from January to May 2013, and Neil McMillan attended 20 committee meetings as chair-elect or ex-officio member. Board committees operate independently of management, so Tim Gitzel, our president and CEO, is not a member of any board committee. SeeOur expectations for directors on page 31 for more information.

Board diversity

We are subject to terms of theInvestment Canada Act, the Uranium Non-Resident Ownership Policy and theCanada Business Corporations Act, which require at least two-thirds of our directors to be Canadian citizens and half to be Canadian residents.

We have long believed that a diverse board is an important asset for good decision-making and an important element of good governance. The board formally adopted a diversity policy in February 2014 to highlight the importance we place on differences in skills, experience, gender, age, ethnicity and geographic background.

The diversity policy sets out six key criteria for the composition of the board, including a target percentage for women:

• at least one aboriginal director from Saskatchewan

• two directors who are US residents

• one or two directors from Europe and/or Asia

• at least 25% of directors who are women

• directors of various ages

• directors with differing backgrounds and experience.

Following the board’s discussion in 2012 about the importance of having another female director, we recruited Catherine Gignac who has a strong background in mining, exploration and operations and mineral resource estimation. We appointed Catherine Gignac to the board as of January 1, 2014, increasing the total women on the board to three, or 23% of the board.

2014 MANAGEMENT PROXY CIRCULAR    21

The table below shows the composition of our board based on the six criteria in our diversity policy.

				23%

Five non-executive directors have joined the board in the last five years, bringing experience in Canadian aboriginal affairs, mining and exploration, finance and investment banking, mergers and acquisitions, and international experience in energy and the nuclear industries.

The nominating, corporate governance and risk committee reviews board diversity annually and recommends to the board measurable objectives for achieving diversity on our board.

Skills and experience

A board with a broad mix of skills and experience is better equipped to oversee our strategic direction and issues that arise with a company of our size and complexity, and to make more informed decisions. Our directors bring valuable skills, extensive experience and functional expertise to the board. They also draw on a variety of resources to support their decision-making, including management materials on Cameco and the nuclear industry, their own business experience and research, knowledge gained from serving on other boards and an unfettered look at Cameco and the industry through a media monitoring service.

SKILLS MATRIX

Each director must be financially literate, independent minded and a team player. These are core attributes that we believe are fundamental to serving on our board. We use a skills matrix to assess board composition and ensure we have an appropriate mix of skills and attributes for proper oversight and carrying out its duties.

The table below lists the categories we believe are essential for our board to effectively govern and act as a strategic resource for Cameco and the level of expertise indicated by the current directors in their 2013 self-assessments. Directors complete a self-assessment every year.

Director development

Members of our board must be knowledgeable about issues affecting our business, the nuclear industry, governance, compensation and related matters. Orientation benefits new directors and continuing education helps all directors keep abreast of important developments and understand issues within the context of our business.

ORIENTATION

Our orientation program familiarizes new directors with Cameco, the nuclear and uranium mining industries and what we expect of the board and committees. They receive an educational manual with information on Cameco and the uranium and nuclear industries, including copies of our recent regulatory filings, financial statements, governance documents and key policies. New directors attend a nuclear industry seminar presented by us and, for each committee they join, a round table discussion with the committee chair and appropriate management representatives. They also meet senior management through presentations and informal social gatherings.

2014 MANAGEMENT PROXY CIRCULAR    23

CONTINUING EDUCATION

The board and committees receive presentations on topical issues for key business decisions and strategic planning, for enterprise risks and in response to director requests. Every year directors visit a facility we operate or other nuclear facility, and attend external conferences and seminars.

We updated our board education policy in October 2013 to include self-directed education. We provide the board with information on relevant webinars and other education opportunities, together with management’s recommendations and comments.

Directors identify educational needs through self-assessment surveys, in-person meetings with the chair of the nominating, corporate governance and risk committee and the board and committee process. The corporate secretary also consults with the board and committee chairs and arranges internal presentations for the board and adds pertinent conferences and seminars to the calendar of education opportunities.

New committee members receive a copy of the committee’s mandate and minutes of the four most recent committee meetings. They also meet with the committee’s key management representatives to discuss recent activities and other issues or concerns. Our committees educate their members through in-house presentations made or hosted by management. Board members also attend external seminars and conferences on matters they’ve identified or identified by management, the corporate secretary or a committee chair.

We pay directors’ fees and expenses for attending conferences and events that are important for enhancing their knowledge for serving on our board.

Governance at Cameco

We believe that sound governance is the foundation for strong corporate performance.

This section tells you about three key elements of governance at Cameco: our shareholder commitment, our governance principles, and how our board operates.

26    CAMECO CORPORATION

Our shareholder commitment

We believe in strong stewardship, and are committed to increasing Cameco’s value to benefit all shareholders.

Separate chair and CEO positions

Leadership starts at the top, and we believe it is important to maintain separate chair and CEO positions. Both positions are appointed by the board.

We have had an independent, non-executive chair of the board since 2003. A non-executive chair provides the board with stronger leadership, fosters more effective decision-making and avoids conflicts of interest. It also allows for more oversight and ability to hold management accountable for the company’s activities.

Shareholder engagement

We communicate openly with shareholders and other key stakeholders, and have constructive dialogue on governance and disclosure matters that are in the public domain.

SHAREHOLDER FEEDBACK

We review our engagement practices regularly, and encourage dialogue with our many stakeholders.

GOVERNANCE

The board adopted a position on shareholder engagement in 2010 to establish engagement practices based on shareholders’ needs and evolving governance practices. Our goal is to provide shareholders with clear disclosure on our governance and compensation practices and to make continuous improvements.

We meet with our large shareholders, governance organizations and shareholder groups on request or as a follow-up to governance questions raised in our regular investor meetings.

Following our 2013 annual meeting, we contacted Glass Lewis & Co., LLC and ISS Corporate Services (ISS), two proxy advisory firms that provide voting and other governance advice to institutional investors. We received suggestions and other valuable feedback on our disclosure through this engagement process and, as a result, enhanced our disclosure about performance and the scorecard under the short-term incentive plan (see pages 69, 77 and 78 for more information).

INCREASED ACCOUNTABILITY

In 2012, the board adopted a new position description for the CEO with expanded descriptions of most of the CEO’s responsibilities and four additional responsibilities that are consistent with the CEO’s current role. It also revised the board survey to increase the focus on CEO evaluation.

In 2011, the board adopted a new position description for the board chair, explaining more fully the appointment, terms and responsibilities of the position.

You can find the new position descriptions on our website (cameco.com/responsibility/governance).

COMPENSATION

We recognize that shareholders and others are keenly interested in executive compensation matters.

We have held ‘say on pay’ advisory votes since 2010 to give shareholders an opportunity to express their views on our approach to executive compensation, and each year have received approval ratings of over 90%. We recognize there is growing investor scrutiny around pay for performance and delivering value to shareholders, and are therefore holding another ‘say on pay’ vote in 2014 (see page 6 for details).

2014 MANAGEMENT PROXY CIRCULAR    27

Governance principles

Policies and standards

CODE OF CONDUCT AND ETHICS

We expect employees, officers, directors and contractors to act with honesty, integrity and impartiality to earn the trust of our shareholders, other stakeholders, customers and communities where we operate.

The code contains principles and guidelines for ethical behaviour in eight key areas:

• financial reporting and accountability

• confidentiality

• conflicts of interest

• complying with the laws, rules and regulations that apply to us (including safety, health, environmental, import, export, securities disclosure and insider trading laws)

• corporate opportunities

• identifying and preventing fraud

• reporting illegal or unethical behaviour

• reporting violations of the code.

New employees must read the code, sign an acknowledgement that they will follow the code and disclose any conflicts of interest. Directors, officers and employees who have supervisory responsibilities or work in supply chain management, exploration and human resources must review the code every year and sign a certificate of compliance. Directors must declare any conflicts of interest and excuse themselves from any discussions or decisions where their business or personal interests would create a conflict of interest.

Any potential concerns are reported to management’s conduct and ethics committee, which reviews employee-related concerns. Concerns relating to senior management and directors are reviewed by the audit and finance committee.

Employees can report a concern about inappropriate business conduct confidentially and anonymously through our ethics (whistleblower) hotline or online. We implemented the hotline in 2006 and a web-based training and compliance tool in 2012.

We made minor updates to our code of conduct and ethics in December 2013 and implemented an online short-form training course for annual certification purposes.

You can find a copy of the code on our website (cameco.com/responsibility/governance/ethics), or write to our corporate secretary.

COMPLIANCE

We are a public company and our shares trade on the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX) and the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE).

We comply with various corporate governance guidelines and requirements in Canada and the United States:

• the corporate governance standards that apply to Canadian companies listed on the TSX, the requirements of theSarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002(SOx) and the NYSE corporate governance standards that apply to us as a foreign private issuer registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) in the US

• voluntarily with most of the NYSE corporate governance standards that apply to US issuers, including the NYSE director indepence standards. However, in certain cases we may determine that a director who does not meet those standards is independent as long as the Canadian independence standards are satisfied.

• NYSE governance standards require shareholders to approve all equity compensation plans and any material revisions to the plans, whether or not the securities issued under the plans are newly issued or purchased on the open market, subject to a few limited exceptions. However, we adhere instead to the TSX rules, which require shareholders to approve equity compensation plans only if they involve newly issued securities.

The board has formal governance guidelines that set out its governance role and practices and our approach to governance so we comply with the legal requirements and standards listed above, and conduct ourselves in the best interests of Cameco and meet industry best practices. The governance guidelines are reviewed and updated regularly and are available on our website (cameco.com/responsibility/governance/practices/).

DISCLOSURE

We are committed to communicating openly and on a timely basis with shareholders, employees and the public, and providing complete, accurate and balanced disclosure in our documents. You can read more about the commitment and our process for disseminating material information in our disclosure policy, which is available on our website (cameco.com/responsibility/governance/ policies_initiatives/corporate_disclosure).

28    CAMECO CORPORATION

Our disclosure committee includes members of senior management and is responsible for:

• reviewing all news releases and public filings containing material information prior to their release

• evaluating the design and effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures to make sure they continue to provide reasonable assurance that information is gathered promptly and accurately, so we can make appropriate public disclosure that complies with legal requirements

• recommending any appropriate changes to our disclosure controls and procedures to the audit and finance committee for approval.

The audit and finance committee receives regular updates from the disclosure committee and is responsible for reviewing our disclosure controls and procedures once a year and recommending any changes to the board for approval.

Each board committee reviews the material public disclosure relevant to its mandate before the board considers them for approval:

• the audit and finance committee is responsible for reviewing the annual and interim financial statements, management’s discussion and analysis (MD&A) and related news releases

• the safety, health and environment committee reviews the sustainable development report

• the reserves oversight committee reviews the reserve and resource information

• the human resources and compensation committee and the nominating, corporate governance and risk committee review this management proxy circular.

The board also reviews and approves the following documents, which are filed publicly:

• prospectuses

• annual information forms

• US Form 40-F filings

• other disclosure documents that must be approved by the directors according to securities laws, securities regulations or stock exchange rules.

• The CEO and other senior officers meet regularly with investment analysts and institutional investors. Our website (cameco.com) has information for shareholders, investment analysts, the media and the public, and our Investor Relations department also provides information to shareholders and responds to general questions or concerns.

You can contact our Investor Relations department by:

2014 MANAGEMENT PROXY CIRCULAR    29

About the board

The board is responsible for overseeing management and our strategy and business affairs. Its goal is to ensure we operate as a successful business, optimizing financial returns while effectively managing risk.

The board encourages open dialogue and works within a climate of respect, trust and candor. It fulfills its duties by:

BOARD PRIORITIES IN 2013

The board identified the following five priorities in 2013 based on our strategy, performance, evolving governance practices and changing market dynamics.

Strategic focus

Working with management on our growth strategy to adequately address near-term challenges and long-term supply and demand fundamentals, and addressing strategic matters quarterly

Risk oversight

Board diversity

Adopting a diversity policy that reflects broad diversity characteristics for a successful board, including a stated objective of achieving at least 25% female directors

Board efficiency and effectiveness

Revising meeting agendas to allow more time for strategic and business discussion, developing a standard for management to use when preparing board and committee materials, and revising the questionnaires to enhance the board, committee and director assessment process

The board met 11 times in 2013.

The board carries out its responsibilities directly and through its five standing committees. This ensures proper oversight and accountability for specific aspects of governance, risk and Cameco’s business activities and affairs, and frees up the board to focus more on Cameco’s strategic priorities, risk oversight and oversight of business matters (seeRole of the board andBoard committeesbeginning on pages 32 and 36).

The board and committees meetin camera without management present at all meetings, including those held by teleconference.

Independence

We believe that a substantial majority of the directors must be independent for an effective board and that the audit and finance committee, human resources and compensation committee and nominating, corporate governance and risk committee have only independent directors. The majority of our directors are unrelated, and these three committees are 100% independent.

A director isindependent if he or she does not have a direct or indirect material relationship with us. A relationship ismaterialif it could reasonably interfere with a director’s ability to make independent decisions, regardless of any other association he or she may have.

Our independence criteria meets the standards of the Canadian Securities Administrators as set out in Multilateral Instrument 52-110 –Audit Committees, National Policy 58-201 –Corporate Governance Guidelines and the NYSE corporate governance standards, including the new NYSE standards on independence of human resources committee members. See page 101 for details.

We review our independence criteria and director status every year, and last updated the independence criteria for directors and members of our human resources and compensation committee in February 2013 (see Appendix B).

The board has determined that only Tim Gitzel and Donald Deranger are not independent. Tim is our president and CEO, and Donald is the non-executive chair of the board of Points Athabasca Contracting Limited Partnership (Points Athabasca), a northern Saskatchewan aboriginal contractor that does business with Cameco in the region.

Donald is not currently employed by Points Athabasca, however, he does have close ties because he is their non-executive chair and was president prior to May 2013.

The board values the contributions of a director with an aboriginal background because our richest resources

30    CAMECO CORPORATION

are located proximate to aboriginal communities in northern Saskatchewan.

Donald brings a deep understanding of the culture and peoples of northern Saskatchewan, combined with a valuable mix of skills and experience as an aboriginal and business leader with direct experience in employee training, economic development and uranium mining. He is an acknowledged leader in the Saskatchewan aboriginal community. He discloses any business relationships to our board that would present a conflict of interest and does not participate in board discussions or decisions about Points Athabasca. In 2013, we paid Points Athabasca $94 million for construction and contracting services.

INDEPENDENT CHAIR

We have had a non-executive, independent chair of our board since 2003. The board appoints the independent chair to help it function independently of management.

In May 2013, the board appointed Neil McMillan to serve as chair. Neil is independent, has been a member of the board since 2002, and has CEO experience and diverse expertise in mining, government relations and the investment industry. He will retire from his position as president and CEO of Claude Resources Inc. on March 31, 2014.

The chair is responsible for various duties and responsibilities:

• leading, managing and organizing the board consistent with our approach to governance

• encouraging high performance and commitment of all directors

• presiding as the chair at all board and shareholder meetings

• overseeing the board’s strategic focus to ensure that it represents Cameco’s best interests

• helping to set the tone and culture of Cameco

• overseeing the board’s procedures so it can carry out its work effectively, efficiently and independently of management

• overseeing all board matters so they are properly addressed and brought to resolution as required

• requiring any matters delegated to the board committees to be properly carried out

• acting as the liaison between the board and the CEO and providing advice, counsel and mentorship to the CEO

• meeting with shareholders and other stakeholders as requested by the CEO

• participating in the recruitment and orientation of new directors

• requiring Cameco to provide timely and relevant information and access to other resources to support board work.

You can access a copy of the chair’s position description on our website (cameco.com/responsibility/governance/chairs_role) or by writing to our corporate secretary.

Our expectations for directors

We expect each member of the board to act honestly and in good faith, and to exercise business judgment that is in Cameco’s best interest.

We also expect each director to:

• comply with our code of conduct and ethics, including conflict of interest disclosure requirements

• develop an understanding of our strategy, business environment, operations, performance and financial position and the markets we operate in

• diligently prepare for each board and committee meeting

• actively participate in each meeting, and seek clarification from management and outside advisors to fully understand the issues

• participate in our continuing education program

• participate in the board, committee and director self-assessment process.

We also expect each director to attend all board meetings, their committee meetings and the annual meeting of shareholders (see page 20 for the 2013 attendance record).

SERVING ON OTHER BOARDS

Our directors do not serve on the boards of competitor firms, and they cannot join organizations or groups that may have adverse interests, unless they have the board’s permission.

A director who is an active CEO can serve on a total of three public company boards, including their own board and the Cameco board. Other directors can serve on a total of five public company boards, including the Cameco board. We impose these limits because of the increasing demands on directors of public companies. In addition, Cameco’s CEO will not sit on a board of another public company without our board’s consent. The board approved Tim Gitzel’s appointment to The Mosaic Company board, which was effective in October 2013.

A director can temporarily exceed the limit by one directorship if he or she has declared an intention to resign from, or not stand for re-election to, at least one other board as of that company’s next annual general meeting. Directors must advise the chair of the board and chair of the nominating, corporate governance and risk committee if they are considering a directorship with another public company.

One of our directors, Daniel Camus, serves on the audit committees of three other public companies. The board has determined that he is a valuable member of our audit and finance committee and is able to fully serve in this role. The board considered his 25+ years of experience in CFO and other senior leadership roles in international organizations. Since retiring as group CFO and head of strategy and international activities of Electricité de France SA (EDF), his only business commitments are his directorships and his CFO position with a humanitarian finance organization.

2014 MANAGEMENT PROXY CIRCULAR    31

See the director profiles beginning on page 13 for the other directorships held by each nominated director.

Role of the board

The company articles require our board to have at least three directors and no more than 15. The board has decided that 13 directors are to be elected at our 2014 annual meeting.

The board engages in lively debate on strategy and items of business, challenging management in a constructive and healthy manner. It considers the interests of our shareholders, debt holders, customers, employees, communities where we operate, the environment, governments, regulators and the general public when making business decisions.

MANDATE

The board has a formal mandate (see Appendix B) that lists its specific duties and responsibilities including the following, among others:

• selecting, evaluating and, if necessary, terminating the CEO

• assessing the integrity of the executive officers and ensuring there is a culture of integrity throughout Cameco

• adopting an annual strategic planning process that includes approving the strategic plans and monitoring our performance against those plans

• succession planning and monitoring management’s performance and compensation

• approving policies and procedures to manage our risks and overseeing management’s efforts to mitigate material risks.

The board mandate was updated in May 2011 and its Appendix A (Definition of independent director and related definitions) was updated in February 2013. Each board committee has a mandate that lists the responsibilities and duties of the committee and chair (seeBoard committees on page 36).

OVERSEEING THE CEO

The CEO is appointed by the board and is responsible for managing Cameco’s affairs. This includes articulating our vision, focusing on creating value for shareholders, and developing and implementing a strategic plan that is consistent with the corporate vision.

Our annual objectives become the CEO’s mandate from year to year, and they include specific, quantifiable goals. The CEO’s objectives are reviewed by the human resources and compensation committee and approved by the board. The CEO is accountable to the board and committees, and the board conducts a formal review of his performance every year. The human resources and compensation committee reviews and discusses the results of the CEO formal review. Then the board has a discussion of the results and the board chair discusses them with the CEO.

The board has established clear limits of authority for the CEO, and these are described in our delegation of financial authority policy.

The board must approve several kinds of decisions, including:

• operating expenditures that exceed the total operating budget by more than 10%

• unbudgeted project expenditures over $10 million per transaction, or over $50 million in total per year

• cost overruns on budgeted project expenditures that are more than $15 million per transaction, or over $50 million in total per year

• any acquisition or disposition of assets over $10 million per transaction, or over $50 million in total per year.

The CEO position description was updated in 2012, and you can find a copy on our website (cameco.com/responsibility/governance/ceos_role) or by writing to our corporate secretary.

STRATEGIC PLANNING

The board works with management to develop our strategic direction.

Our formal annual strategic planning process has three elements:

• developing a 10-year strategic plan

• setting annual corporate objectives

• establishing three-year plans (current year annual budgets and additional two-year financial plans).

Management is responsible for preparing information on these three elements and presenting it to the board for discussion and approval.

The board is actively involved in the strategic planning process every year and holds regular sessions with management, including quarterly updates and at least one multi-day session a year for more in-depth discussion and analysis. Management and the board discuss the main risks facing our business, strategic issues, competitive developments and corporate opportunities.

Management also presents strategic issues to the board throughout the year based on the business climate and other developments. The CEO updates the board on the execution of our corporate strategy at every regularly scheduled board meeting. The board also raises various issues and topics for discussion as part of the overall process.

RISK OVERSIGHT

Over the last few years, management, the board and board committees have been devoting more time to the way we identify, manage, report and mitigate risk.

We implemented a new risk policy and process in 2011 that involves a broad, systematic approach to identifying, assessing, reporting and managing the significant risks we face in our business and operations. The policy establishes clear accountabilities for enterprise risk management. We use a common risk matrix throughout the company and consider any risk that has the potential to significantly affect our ability to achieve our corporate objectives or strategic plan as an enterprise risk.

As a responsible corporation, we proactively address strategic, financial, operational, social and environmental risks and assess all risks against our four measures of success (seeMeasuring performance on page 67 for details).

We manage risk in five broad categories:

•   strategic

•   financial

•   operational

•   human capital

•   social, governance and compliance.

Each risk is assigned a rating and grouped into one of three tiers based on its severity or level of risk in our risk register. We develop action plans to mitigate each risk as part of our strategic planning and budgeting process. Employees “own” the risks and are responsible for developing and implementing controls to mitigate risk and for ongoing risk assessments.

Risks in the top tier are assigned to the board committees for ongoing oversight. The board enhanced the risk oversight process in 2013 by initiating quarterly presentations by management to the committees or, in some cases, the full board to allow a fuller understanding of the major enterprise risks and management’s mitigation strategies.

Committees receive presentations on additional enterprise risks throughout the year as requested. A formal risk management report is presented to the board annually.

Management receives monthly updates on our progress in managing risk. Management focused on strategic risk management and risk identification in 2013.

We conducted a gap analysis between ERM and strategic risks to incorporate strategic risk into our management process. As part of the annual risk review process, management also voted on top and emerging risks to refine our focus for monitoring and reporting on risk over the next year. Management has also been developing a project plan for managing our risk appetite and risk tolerance across the enterprise.

Our ERM program follows the guidance of ISO 31000:2009, and the board oversees management to ensure our system is robust.

Regular monitoring and reporting keeps management and the board apprised of our progress in mitigating risk and supports good governance.

The table below shows how the board and committees monitor risk across the organization. You can read about the board committees on page 36 and compensation risk on page 44.

2014 MANAGEMENT PROXY CIRCULAR    33

INTERNAL CONTROLS

The board and board committees are responsible for monitoring the integrity of our internal controls and management information systems.

The audit and finance committee is responsible for overseeing the internal controls, including controls over accounting and financial reporting systems. The chief internal auditor reports directly to the audit and finance committee chair and updates the committee quarterly, while the CFO makes quarterly presentations on our financial results and forecasts to the audit and finance committee and the board.

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining an adequate system of internal control over financial reporting to provide reasonable assurance that public reporting of our financial information is reliable and accurate, our transactions are appropriately accounted for, and that our assets are adequately safeguarded. Management evaluated the effectiveness of our system of internal control over financial reporting and concluded that the system was effective in providing the reasonable assurance as at December 31, 2013.

SUCCESSION PLANNING

The board is actively involved in succession planning to ensure we have an orderly succession of senior management and a plan for developing strong leadership, nurturing talent and retaining key people for our long-term success.

Our leadership development program focuses on building leadership competencies throughout Cameco and preparing certain senior level employees to take on executive positions in the future. The senior management team was assembled internally and is the result of an effective leadership development program and orderly succession plan.

The human resources and compensation committee reviews the succession plan for our entire executive team twice a year. The audit and finance committee is responsible for reviewing the succession plan for the CFO and controller, and making recommendations to the human resources and compensation committee.

The board reviews the succession plan annually, and approves any changes to senior management.

Board chair selection

The selection process, position description, preferred characteristics and qualities for the board chair position were developed by the nominating, corporate governance and risk committee and approved by the board in 2011.

In 2012, after Victor Zaleschuk consulted with the board about stepping down as board chair after serving 10 years, a selection committee was formed to consider potential candidates as incoming chair. The committee considered the ideal characteristics

and qualities for the role, the position description and potential candidates and their respective experience and qualifications. It specifically looked at leadership and communication skills, business and industry experience, capacity and availability of each candidate, combined with the opportunity, risks and strategic direction of Cameco. The committee also consulted with the CEO because the relationship between the board chair and the CEO is an important consideration.

The board voted on the new chair of the board and selected Neil McMillan. Neil has been serving in this capacity since May 2013 – he has been an independent member of our board since 2002 and has diverse experience as a CEO and in mining, government relations and the investment industry. See his director profile on page 19 andIndependent chair on page 31 for more information.

Assessment

The nominating, corporate governance and risk committee assesses the performance and effectiveness of the board, committees and individual directors.

The committee conducts a comprehensive set of surveys each year. It uses the results to assess the board overall, the CEO, the composition of the committees and meeting effectiveness, and to make the most of a director’s expertise and identify any gaps in skills and experience.

Directors complete a self-assessment of their skills, performance and relevant experience. The committee chair also conducts one-on-one interviews annually so directors have a candid discussion about any issues respecting their performance, any matters relating to the performance of their peers, or other aspects of the functioning of the board.

The board, committee and director questionnaires were revised in 2013 by providing more open-ended questions to enhance the quality of the feedback and make the assessment process more robust.

All responses are confidential and are tallied by a third party to encourage full disclosure and open comments. To ensure anonymity, individual directors are not identified in the reports, other than director self-assessments, and only appropriate committee chairs, the board chair and the chair of the nominating, corporate governance and risk committee receive the reports. Committee assessment results are shared with all committee members.

The nominating, corporate governance and risk committee reviews the results of the board self-assessment, and makes recommendations to the board about the composition of the board or committees, or changes to the structure, process or other changes to enhance board performance.

DIRECTOR TENURE

The board does not limit the time a director can serve. While term limits can help ensure the board gains a fresh perspective, imposing this restriction means it would lose the contributions of longer serving directors who have developed a deeper knowledge and understanding of Cameco over time. The board does not believe that long tenure impairs a director’s ability to act independently of management.

The board adopted a policy requiring directors to retire at age 72 and not stand for re-election at the following annual meeting, however it can extend the retirement age if it deems it appropriate. The board reviews any exceptions once a year.

The CEO typically resigns from the board when he retires from Cameco.

The nominating, corporate governance and risk committee will review the board’s policy on tenure and retirement age in 2014 to ensure our policy, along with our annual board composition review and succession planning process, are providing for board renewal that meets the ongoing and developing needs of Cameco.

RECRUITING NEW DIRECTORS

The nominating, corporate governance and risk committee identifies potential director candidates based on their skills, experience, character, integrity, judgment, record of achievement, diversity and any other qualities or qualifications that would enhance the board’s decision-making process and oversight of our business and affairs. The committee is responsible for maintaining a board succession plan that is responsive to our needs and interests of shareholders and supports ongoing development of the board based on its mix of skills and experience and our strategy and business needs.

The committee also uses an evergreen list of potential new directors as a tool for board succession.

The committee typically asks an external search firm to identify possible board candidates when warranted. The evergreen list allows the committee to recruit candidates more efficiently. Board members identify potential candidates for the list. The board will also recruit candidates to fill specific needs as identified from time to time (seeAbout the nominated directors starting on page 12 for more information).

2014 MANAGEMENT PROXY CIRCULAR    35

Board committees

The board carries out its responsibilities directly and through its five standing committees:

• audit and finance

• human resources and compensation

• nominating, corporate governance and risk

• reserves oversight

• safety, health and environment.

Three of the committees – audit and finance, human resources and compensation and nominating, corporate governance and risk – are 100% independent.

Committee responsibilities

Each committee fulfills a governance role, overseeing our activities in a specific area. As part of their specific responsibilities, which are outlined on the following pages, the work of each committee supports our four measures of success.

MEASURE OF SUCCESS	COMMITTEE RESPONSIBLE
Outstanding financial performance	Audit and finance
Supportive communities	Audit and finance
Safe, healthy and rewarding workplace	Safety, health and environment Human resources and compensation
Clean environment	Safety, health and environment

We assess corporate performance based on how well we achieve our objectives, which are tied to our four measures of success (see pages 76 and 80 for details).

Each committee chair is responsible for determining the meeting agenda, how often the committee will meet, the conduct of each meeting, and chairing their committee meetings.

Each committee conducts a formal self-assessment every year and reviews its performance against the mandate for the prior year.

Committee membership

Committee memberships may change once the new board is elected, based on the recommendations of the chair of the board and the chair of the nominating, corporate governance and risk committee. The board chair is an ex-officio member of the five committees.

MORE ABOUT

BOARD COMMITTES

Each board committee has a mandate outlining the responsibilities and duties of the committee and the chair, which is reviewed annually.

Each board committee was formed based on the need for detailed oversight in key areas. The nominating, corporate governance and risk committee is responsible for overseeing our risk management process and policies. Each of the other four committees is responsible for overseeing particular risks.

Each committee sets aside time at each meeting to meetin camera without management present.

See Appendix B for the board mandate. You can also access the board and committee mandates on our website (cameco.com/responsibility/governance/board _committees) or by writing to our corporate secretary.

Access to management and outside advisors

The board and committees can invite any member of management, outside advisor or other person to attend their meetings.

Committees can engage outside advisors to assist in carrying out their duties, as authorized by their mandates. Individual directors can also engage outside advisors, as long as they receive approval in advance from the nominating, corporate governance and risk committee.

The human resources and compensation committee is the only committee that engaged an independent consultant in 2013.

RESPONSIBILITIES

The committee is responsible for:

Financial reporting

• overseeing the quality and integrity of our accounting and financial reporting processes

Audit

• approving the annual audit plan and the fees of our external auditors, including pre-approving all services to be provided

• assessing the external auditor before recommending their appointment for the ensuing year

• recommending the appointment of our external auditor

2013 HIGHLIGHTS

We conducted a comprehensive assessment of the performance and effectiveness of the external auditor before recommending their appointment at the 2014 annual meeting. It consisted of a consideration of the following:

1. A robust evaluation, including interviews by the committee, senior management and key personnel, and KPMG’s self-evaluation. The evaluation considered many factors of performance and effectiveness including:

• quality of services and efficiency of resources provided by KPMG’s engagement team during the audit period

• quality of communications and interaction with KPMG

• KPMG’s independence, objectivity and professional skepticism.

This assessment was discussed by the committee with senior management, KPMG and by the committee alone. After its review, the committee was satisfied with KPMG’s performance and independence.

2. The written confirmation from KPMG of its independence from Cameco.

3. A report from KPMG as to its quality assurance programs and controls and regulatory oversight.

4. The appropriateness of KPMG’s fees.

5. KPMG’s tenure as our external auditor and its familiarity with our operations and business, accounting policies and procedures and internal controls over financial reporting.

6. KPMG’s recent partner rotation.

7. KPMG’s capability and expertise in handling the breadth and complexity of our operations.

Based on this evaluation, the committee concluded that KPMG is independent and it is in the best interests of Cameco to retain KPMG to serve as our external auditors for 2014.

The committee updated our maintaining external auditor independence standard which includes a provision limiting the total amount of non-audit fees that our external auditor charges to no more than one-third of the total fees charged in any year.

With its change in mandate, the committee worked with management to develop a greater understanding of the topics to be addressed and the purview of the finance function of the committee.

The committee held a workshop with management to review the types of financial information, modeling and analysis to be presented to the board for reviewing financial proposals.

The committee met eight times in 2013.

It metin camera without management present at every meeting, and separately with the internal auditor and external auditors at every meeting.

Compensation governance

The board has ultimate responsibility for Cameco’s compensation.

The human resources and compensation committee assists the board in overseeing our human resource policies, executive compensation, succession planning, pension plans and director compensation. The committee has five members, is qualified and experienced, and is 100% independent.

James Curtiss is a lawyer with a strong background in governance and executive compensation and 11 years of experience as committee chair and five years of experience as a member of our nominating, corporate governance and risk committee. Two of the committee members have a strong financial background and one serves as audit committee chair for other public company boards.

You can read more about the committee members in the director profiles starting on page 13.

Risk management

We have a conservative approach to risk management because of the complex nature of our business.

Compensation risk is embedded in our enterprise risk management framework. Our compensation program:

• is designed to encourage the right management behaviours

• uses a broad-based approach to assess performance (balanced scorecard)

• recognizes appropriate risk taking

• avoids excessive payouts to our executives and employees.

IMPORTANT THINGS TO KNOW

We believe in frank and transparent disclosure.

The board oversees our compensation policies and practices and it is able to use discretion, subject to limits on adjusting compensation upward.

Our culture encourages management to be objective in recognizing its own level of performance and making recommendations to the board to reduce compensation when appropriate.

Management developed six compensation principles that were adopted by the board (see page 63). These principles guide all executive compensation decisions at Cameco.

The human resources and compensation committee works with management and the safety, health and environment committee to set corporate goals for all incentive plans.

The committee stress tests different performance scenarios and back tests previous performance and compensation decisions to make sure decisions and outcomes are appropriate.

CLAWBACK POLICY

Our new clawback policy was implemented on January 1, 2013 and applies to all executive officers after this date. The previous policy, in effect since 2003, continues to apply to incentive compensation awarded to the CEO and CFO prior to 2013.

The new policy covers incentive compensation, including any annual bonus, performance share units, restricted share units and stock options granted or received. It allows us to recoup the incentive compensation of the executive at fault if all three of the following events occur:

• we make an accounting restatement if there is a material non-compliance with financial reporting requirements under securities laws

• an executive engaged in gross negligence, intentional misconduct or fraud which caused or significantly contributed to the restatement, and

• the executive was overcompensated as a result of the restatement.

If these three events occur, the board and the human resources and compensation committee will decide when and how the policy will apply. We may recoup all incentive compensation granted or received by the executive at fault during the years subject to the restatement that is in excess of the compensation that would have been computed based on the restated results.

44    CAMECO CORPORATION

SHARE OWNERSHIP

We have implemented revised share ownership guidelines that require executives to hold their current shares, and obtain additional shares with the after-tax proceeds from redeeming or exercising any equity awards until they have met their target ownership.

PSU PLAN

We adjusted the performance measures and weightings under the PSU plan effective January 1, 2013. Performance is based on both absolute and relative measures over a three-year period – relative average realized uranium price, increased production and relative TSR. The weighting of the relative TSR metric was increased from 30% to 40% and the percentage of LTI awards in PSUs was increased from 40% to 60%.

Independent advice

The board and board committees retain independent consultants as needed to assist them in carrying out their duties and responsibilities.

Management has retained Mercer (Canada) Limited (Mercer) as its consultant. The committee has retained Meridian Compensation Partners (Meridian) as its independent consultant.

COMPENSATION RISK ASSESSMENT

Mercer completed a comprehensive compensation risk assessment on behalf of management in early 2014. The assessment considered the changes to the compensation program in 2013, some of which were a result of Mercer’s comprehensive assessments in late 2011 and 2012.

Mercer reviewed our compensation program, policies and practices in seven key areas:

• pay mix

• incentive plan funding, leverage and caps

• performance period

• performance measures

• pay for performance

• amount of incentives

• plan governance and risk mitigation.

Mercer’s report confirmed that the program design continues to be appropriate for our conservative approach to risk management and it identified only a few opportunities to further reduce compensation risk. Meridian reviewed Mercer’s report and was satisfied with their process and findings.

The human resources and compensation committee discussed and accepted Mercer’s report and Meridian’s review of it. The committee worked with Meridian in 2013 to address these opportunities for change. These changes are aimed at more closely aligning the interests of management and our shareholders. See page 75 for details.

ABOUT OUR COMPENSATION FRAMEWORK

• We use a multi-year strategic plan to balance risk and reward.

• We embed our corporate objectives into how we assess performance of our executives.

• Compensation is based primarily on performance, not length of service.

• We use at-risk compensation to motivate executives because the value is not guaranteed.

Balanced decision-making

• Corporate performance is based on absolute and relative measures.

• We use a balanced score card to provide a more direct line of sight to specific objectives.

Threshold performance

• We must deliver a minimum threshold performance in order to receive incentive awards.

Limits on incentive pay

• The STI and PSU plans are designed to pay out at a maximum of 200% of target for exceptional performance and the human resources and compensation committee and board cannot exceed this cap.

• We use linear and modified payout curves with maximums for each objective under the plans to determine the payout and avoid any extremely high payouts from excessive risk taking.

• Potential payouts under the incentive plans are modest as a percentage of revenue and income.

Clawback policy

• Executives must reimburse their incentive compensation if there was an overpayment because of a restatement of our financial statements due to their misconduct.

• The board updated our clawback policy in December 2012 to apply to all executives and to compensation received on and after January 1, 2013.

No hedging

• Our securities trading and reporting policy prohibits directors, executives and other employees from hedging their shares or equity-based compensation.

CCGG pay-for-performance principles

• Our compensation philosophy and practices incorporate the compensation principles that the Canadian Coalition for Good Governance (CCGG) recommends for Canadian companies. These principles reflect pay for performance and integrate risk management functions in a company’s executive compensation philosophy and structure.

2014 MANAGEMENT PROXY CIRCULAR    45

COMMITTEE’S CONSULTANT

The committee considers the independence of all advice it receives on compensation matters and reviews all fees and the terms of consulting services provided by the independent consultant. It takes into consideration more than the information and recommendations provided by its compensation consultant or management, and is ultimately responsible for its own decisions.

The committee conducts a formal review of our director and executive compensation programs every few years as a good compensation practice. In 2013, Meridian conducted a review of our executive compensation plans and comparator group and provided recommendations to the committee (see page 75 for changes in 2014). A formal review of director compensation is planned for 2014.

The table below shows the fees paid to the independent consultant in 2012 and 2013. Meridian did not provide any services to management.

	2013			2012
Meridian Compensation Partners
Executive compensation-related fees	$	128,805		$	258,885
All other fees		—			—
Percent of work provided to the committee		100	%		100	%

Meridian provided a broad range of services in 2013 as part of our comprehensive review of the executive compensation programs:

• development of a revised comparator group

• a review of Mercer’s compensation-related risk review

• two updates on governance trends

• a review of 2013 performance against targets

• a review of compensation for the CEO and senior vice-presidents

• a review of our pay philosophy and the structure of the short-term incentive plan

• an overall review of executive compensation programs and program metrics, including a detailed review of STI and PSU plan objectives

• a pay for performance assessment

• a review of share ownership and hold requirements

• an in-depth review of the compensation discussion and analysis (CD&A)

• consulting on numerous compensation governance matters, including clawbacks, proxy advisor positions, realized and realizable pay disclosure, and ISS pay-for-performance modeling.

The committee reviewed Meridian’s report on independence as contemplated by the NYSE rules and is satisfied with the report and Meridian’s independence.

Director compensation

Compensation discussion and analysis

1. Approach

We have three goals:

• Recruit and retain qualified individuals to serve as members of our board and contribute to our overall success.

• Align the interests of our board and shareholders by requiring directors to own shares or share equivalents, and receive at least 60% of their annual retainer in deferred share units until they meet our share ownership guidelines.

• Pay competitively by positioning compensation at the median of director compensation paid by companies that are in a similar business and comparable in size.

2. Share ownership

We introduced share ownership guidelines for non-executive directors in 2003 to more closely align their interests with those of our shareholders.

Directors must hold three times their annual retainer in Cameco shares or DSUs. A director joining the board before July 1, 2010 has seven years from the date they joined to meet the minimum requirement, while a director joining after this date has five years. A director who changes positions to the board chair has an additional three years to meet the guideline for that position. We assess compliance annually, and value shares and DSUs at the price they were acquired or the year-end closing price of Cameco’s shares on the TSX, whichever is higher.

As of December 31, 2013, all of the nominated directors are in compliance with the guidelines. They either hold the minimum, or have additional time to acquire the necessary holdings. Catherine Gignac (joined in 2014) must continue to acquire DSUs or Cameco shares and has until January 2019 to meet the requirement. Neil McMillan (assumed the board chair position in 2013) has until May 2016 to meet the incremental requirement. See the director profiles beginning on page 13 for information about their share ownership.

As an executive, Tim Gitzel is required to comply with the share ownership guidelines for executives. He has until December 2016 to acquire additional shares or equivalents to comply with the guidelines. (see page 65 for details).

The human resources and compensation committee reviews any situation where a director does not meet the requirement by the required date or maintain the minimum ownership level, and recommends a course of action to the board. The board has the discretion to decide what action, if any, should be taken.

ABOUT DSUs

A deferred share unit (DSU) is a notional share that has the same value as one Cameco common share. DSUs earn additional units as dividend equivalents, at the same rate as dividends paid on our common shares.

DSUs are paid out to directors in cash when they retire from the board. A retiring director can defer the payment and decide to receive all or a portion of the cash payout in the following year.

As of December 31, 2013, directors held $11,545,769 worth of DSUs based on the year-end closing price on the TSX of $22.04 per common share.

3. Fees and retainers

Director compensation includes:

• an annual retainer (higher retainer for the non-executive chair of the board)

• an annual fee as committee chair or committee member

• an attendance fee for each board and committee meeting they attend

• a travel fee to cover the necessary travel time to attend board and committee meetings.

The non-executive chair receives a flat fee retainer, so neither Victor Zaleschuk nor Neil McMillan received any committee retainers or attendance fees in 2013 for the board or committee meetings they attended during the portion of the year each was chair.

We pay for any reasonable travel and out-of-pocket expenses relating to directors’ duties.

The table below shows our current director fee schedule, which was last revised on July 1, 2010. Directors who live outside of Canada receive their compensation in US dollars. Directors who are employees of Cameco or our affiliates (such as Tim Gitzel) do not receive director compensation. Total compensation for each director in 2013 was at the 54th percentile of the S&P/TSX 60.

A director who has not met the share ownership guidelines must receive at least 60% of their annual retainer in DSUs. A director who has met the guidelines can receive all of the retainer and fees in cash, or a portion in cash and the balance in DSUs in increments of 25%, which they decide before the beginning of the fiscal year. See the director compensation table on the next page for details. Directors who elect to receive all of their compensation in cash continue to increase their share ownership through dividend equivalents paid in DSUs.

Directors must maintain their share ownership once they meet the guidelines, however we value the shares and DSUs on an ongoing basis using the closing price of our shares on the TSX or the book value, whichever is higher.

4. Assessing the program

The human resources and compensation committee reviews director compensation every few years and makes recommendations to the board.

The last review and change to director compensation took place in 2010. A formal review is planned for 2014.

Director compensation table

The table below shows fees earned by each non-executive director in 2013, based on the fee schedule, their committee memberships and the number of meetings attended.

Tim Gitzel does not receive any compensation as a director because he is compensated in his role as president and CEO (see the summary compensation table on page 84). In 2013, Victor Zaleschuk was non-executive chair of the board from January to May, and Neil McMillan assumed the role from May to December. Their board retainer each reflects the fees paid to them in this capacity.

Incentive plan awards– DSUs

The next table shows what each non-executive director earned in DSUs in 2013. We have combined information from two mandatory tables:Incentive plan awards – Value vested or earned during the year andOutstanding share-based and option-based awards, into the table below. Only one director has options, so his information has been set out in a separate table below.

Directors received a portion of their retainer and fees in cash and DSUs:

• Share-based awards – Value vested during the year is the amount that directors received in DSUs in 2013, valued as of the grant dates. It includes all of the DSUs that vested as of the grant date and DSUs granted as dividend equivalents in 2013.

• Share-based awards – Market or payout value of vested share-based awards not paid out or distributed are all of the directors’ DSUs which have vested, but they are not paid out until the director resigns or retires from the board. The DSUs were valued at $22.04, the closing price of a Cameco share on the TSX on December 31, 2013.

Incentive plan awards – options

We stopped granting options to directors in 2003.

Only James Curtiss has outstanding options. In 2004, he exercised his reload options to acquire additional options with a 10-year term, exercisable at the closing market price of Cameco shares on the day before the reload options were exercised. The table below shows the details of the outstanding options as at December 31, 2013.

The unexercised in-the-money options are valued using the closing market price of $22.04 on December 31, 2013, minus the exercise price, times the number of outstanding options.

Executive compensation

Cameco is committed to maintaining the transparency of our executive compensation program. More detailed information, however, can sometimes obscure the bigger picture.

The following message by the chair of the human resources and compensation committee highlights key aspects of our executive compensation program. A more detailed discussion follows in the compensation discussion and analysis (CD&A) beginning on page 63.

Message to shareholders

Dear Shareholder,

On behalf of the human resources and compensation committee, I am pleased to share with you our approach to executive compensation for 2013 and program changes in 2014. This letter is intended to provide additional insight into how our executives are paid and the reasons why.

COMMITMENT TO PAY FOR PERFORMANCE

Your board is committed to paying executives for performance. Pay is linked to both the execution of Cameco’s business plan and to our commitment to deliver strong returns to shareholders. The guiding principle of Cameco’s executive compensation program is that a proper balance between fixed and variable compensation, short and long-term incentives, and risk and reward will increase long-term shareholder value.

Most of management’s compensation is incentive-based and dependent on short and long-term performance. The committee considers many factors in setting total compensation, including competitive market conditions, employee engagement, risk taking, current business challenges, short-term achievements and strategic objectives.

We recognize that the compensation program and policies must discourage excessive risk-taking by executives. To mitigate that risk, we have an appropriate balance between base salary and at-risk incentive pay, deferred vesting of equity incentives, share ownership requirements, trading restrictions, clawback provisions, caps on incentive payouts and a balanced scorecard with targets for short-term incentives, all of which are discussed in more detail in theCompensation discussion and analysis beginning on page 63.

PERFORMANCE PEERS

The committee uses a size-appropriate comparator group of companies to assess compensation levels. Companies in the group are in similar industries and are capital intensive, complex and regulated businesses with head offices in Canada. These are companies that Cameco competes with for executive talent.

While these companies are appropriate for comparing compensation, they are less suitable for comparing total shareholder return (TSR) – a key measure for assessing company performance – because Cameco’s share price is highly correlated to the uranium price, which is affected by events unique to the nuclear industry.

The mining and energy companies in Cameco’s comparator group are not affected by the same events that affect the nuclear industry and the uranium price, as shown in the graph below.

2014 MANAGEMENT PROXY CIRCULAR    51

The uranium mining/exploration companies whose TSR results are correlated to the uranium price are small and their shares are too thinly traded to serve as compensation and performance peers for Cameco. However, as an internal check, the committee compared Cameco’s TSR relative to 13 uranium companies and the median.

Cameco outperformed almost all of these uranium companies over the past three years, as shown in the graph below.

2013 COMPANY PERFORMANCE

The committee measures Cameco’s performance in absolute and relative (compared to other companies) terms as well as in short-term (annual) and long-term accomplishments. Short-term incentive awards are tied to the achievement of annual targets in the balanced scorecard (financial, operational, safety, environment, and community support) that contribute to long-term sustainable shareholder value (see page 76).

Long-term incentive awards are tied to both absolute and relative share performance, the uranium price achieved relative to prices realized by competitors and the growth in Cameco’s uranium production.

The uranium market continued to be under pressure in 2013, with the uranium spot market price falling by more than 20% and the long-term price by more than 10%. Despite this difficult market environment, 1 Cameco achieved adjusted net earnings¹ of $445 million, a 3% increase from 2012. This increase demonstrates the strength of our marketing strategy in providing protection in a declining market. Cameco also reduced costs as a result of its restructuring efforts in 2013.

1. Adjusted net earnings is a non-IFRS measure and excludes the impact of various items as detailed in note 1 on page 77.

Other financial accomplishments include:

• record consolidated annual revenue of $2.4 billion

• annual gross profit of $607 million

• annual average realized uranium price of $49.81 per pound ($48.35 US per pound) compared to an average spot price of $38.17 (US) per pound.

Overall safety performance was strong in 2013. Injury rates trended down across the company and were better than expected. Average radiation doses remained low and stable.

To ensure an effective approach to environmental performance, all of Cameco’s operating sites have environmental management systems that are registered to the ISO-14001 standard. There were no significant environmental incidents in 2013, and the reportable environmental incidents were significantly lower than Cameco’s long-term average.

Cameco also continues to build an engaged, qualified and diverse organization capable of implementing its growth strategies. It earned six awards in 2013 that are tangible proof that its people strategy is working.

Other accomplishments in 2013

• Secured 10-year operating licences for the McArthur River, Key Lake and Rabbit Lake operations (the first 10-year licences to be granted to a uranium mining operation in Canada. Previously these licence terms were limited to five years)

52    CAMECO CORPORATION

• Secured an eight-year operating licence for the Cigar Lake mine

• Achieved record annual production at McArthur River/Key Lake of 20.1 million pounds (our share 14.1 million)

• Increased uranium production by 8% to 23.6 million pounds in 2013 from 21.9 million pounds in 2012

• Successfully tested the jet boring system in waste and began commissioning in ore at Cigar Lake

• Reduced direct administration costs by $3 million compared to 2012, which reflects the effects of our restructuring activities.

Notwithstanding this strong performance, Cameco did not achieve all of the short-term incentive targets (see page 76), resulting in an overall performance rating of 83.7% for the incentive payout.

Cameco’s year-end share price increased more than 12% in 2013 and TSR for the year was at the 86th percentile of the comparator group.

Looking beyond the comparator group, in 2013 Cameco’s TSR performed well against the median TSR of companies in three market indices – S&P/TSX 60, S&P/TSX Capped Diversified Metals and Mining and S&P/TSX Capped Energy. As noted earlier, Cameco also outperformed most uranium companies in 2013.

2013 CEO COMPENSATION

Corporate performance remains the single biggest factor in the board’s decisions on pay for Cameco’s CEO and senior officers. 20% of the CEO’s compensation is base salary and the remaining 80% is at-risk compensation (19% short-term incentive (STI) and 61% long-term incentives (LTI).

The LTI is awarded 60% as performance share units (PSUs) and 40% as stock options. The heavier weighting on PSUs increases the performance-weighted incentive, reduces share dilution and better aligns with shareholder interests.

TSR is an important measure of relative performance and its weighting under the PSU plan was increased in 2013. TSR now accounts for 40% of the total expected value of a PSU award. The proportion of the value of

the annual LTIP award, which depends on TSR, has doubled from 2012.

The CEO’s base salary was not increased in 2013 due to modest share performance, despite strong operating performance in a challenging nuclear/uranium market environment.

His annual bonus was $785,000 compared to $790,000 in 2012. The decrease is primarily due to performance on some operational metrics that was lower than target, including meeting cost and timing targets in capital project management and delays in achieving start-up at Cigar Lake.

The 2011 PSUs vested on December 31, 2013 and, based on our performance and share price, paid out on March 3, 2014 at 47.4% of their original grant value disclosed in our 2011 circular.

The CEO was granted 187,500 options and 75,100 PSUs in 2013.

The CEO’s total direct compensation in 2013 (see page 59) was $4.7 million, slightly less than 2012. This reflects strong corporate performance as assessed by the committee moderated by relatively modest improvement in the share price due to depressed uranium prices. His realized and realizable pay at the end of 2013 was $2.69 million, significantly less than the reported compensation, reflecting that a portion of his equity compensation did not vest and the value of the balance was affected by Cameco’s share price. This demonstrates alignment with shareholders – the CEO’s equity compensation decreases when our share performance and relative TSR are down.

THREE-YEAR PERFORMANCE (2011 TO 2013)

In March 2011, an earthquake off the coast of Japan triggered a devastating tsunami that caused extensive loss of life and property damage in northeastern Japan including loss of coolant incidents at three reactors at the Fukushima nuclear power station. As a result, the entire Japanese reactor fleet was shut down and remains closed today. The uranium market has been negatively impacted by these events. Since 2011 the uranium spot price has fallen by about 50% and the long-term price has fallen more than 30%.

As Cameco’s share price is highly correlated to the uranium price, the decline in the uranium spot price has resulted in a decline in Cameco’s TSR of 53.5% from 2010 to 2011 and increases of 8.5% from 2011 to 2012 and 14.7% from 2012 to 2013.

Notwithstanding the dramatic decline in the 2 urani um spot price, Cameco’s adjusted net earnings in 2013 were only 13% lower than 2011. The relative stability of earnings over this very challenging three-year period demonstrates the strength of management’s marketing strategy and focus on cost reduction.

2014 MANAGEMENT PROXY CIRCULAR    53

CEO COMPENSATION 2011 TO 2013

In July 2011, Tim Gitzel assumed the position of Cameco president and CEO shortly after the events at Fukushima, which had a significant impact on the nuclear industry at large, and certainly on Cameco as one of the largest suppliers of uranium to nuclear power plants. The industry was still coming to grips with the implications of the Japanese situation for the global nuclear industry. Several countries announced phase-outs of nuclear reactors, halting growth of their nuclear programs and the world was taking a pause to examine the safety of existing reactors to determine what improvements were needed. There was real concern that uranium demand and prices could significantly decrease depending on the outcome of these events.

The CEO’s reported total direct compensation in 2013 has decreased by 29% from 2011 (see page 59) and is below the median of the comparator group. Meanwhile, due to the significant decrease in our share price since March 2011, our three-year TSR has been in the bottom quartile of our comparator group, although our two-year and one-year TSR are both higher than the median of the group. In contrast, over the same three-year period, our TSR has outperformed most other uranium companies (see page 52).

The committee also compared TSR performance with the CEO’s three-year average reported compensation (includes the value of the equity-based compensation at the time of grant), and three-year average realized and realizable compensation (includes the estimated value of the equity-based compensation based on actual performance and share price). The graph below shows that realized and realizable compensation is well correlated with Cameco’s share performance.

The CEO’s realized and realizable pay in each year is lower than the grant date value disclosed in the summary compensation table, demonstrating the alignment between our compensation program and

performance. Cameco has had strong financial, production and safety results in this period, however, TSR has been below target. The value of compensation that the CEO can receive is lower when all performance measures do not show positive results.

Cameco’s performance-based, long-term incentive awards ensure that the actual long-term value received by our executives is well aligned with shareholder experience because it correlates with both our share price and our performance.

LOOK AHEADING AHEAD TO 2014

Challenges in the uranium market have persisted since early 2011 and we expect they will continue for the near to medium-term, depending on several factors:

• the pace of Japanese reactor restarts

• how long it takes for excess supply to clear the market

• when long-term contracting resumes in meaningful quantities

• the development and execution of new uranium supply projects

• continued performance of existing supply.

In this environment, management is adjusting its strategy to eliminate the fixed supply target of 36 million pounds by 2018. Instead, Cameco will produce at a pace aligned with market signals to increase long-term shareholder value. They will do so in a profitable, safe and environmentally sound manner while engaging communities near our operations.

This will provide Cameco with increased flexibility to deliver the best value through this period of uncertainty, while maintaining the ability to benefit when more certainty returns to the market, as we expect it will.

During this period of uncertainty in the uranium market, we need to keep a core group of the executive team in place to implement the strategy. This is particularly important, as Cameco’s competitors for executive talent, including the energy industry in Western Canada, do not face the same uranium market challenges over the next few years and Cameco’s executives have skills that are easily transferrable to other industries. At the same time, there is a very limited pool from which to draw executive talent with extensive uranium and nuclear industry expertise. For this reason, we have awarded RSUs to three members of the executive team. The value is two times their 2013 base salary and the RSUs vest at the end of a three-year period. The executives must hold these RSUs until their share ownership requirements are met or for two years after vesting, whichever is longer.

The CEO recommended a base salary increase of 2% for his executive team and an additional increase of 9% for the chief commercial officer to better align this role with the median of the comparator group. The committee and board approved the CEO’s recommendations and also increased the CEO’s salary by 2% in 2014.

54    CAMECO CORPORATION

These changes in executive base salaries follow a 0% increase in 2013 and 2% increase in 2012 (other than the 5% increase for the chief commercial officer).

The compensation timeline on page 57 gives more context to the compensation decisions described above. Page 60 discusses the trend in share performance and total compensation awarded to the named executives over the past five years.

I have had the privilege of serving as chair of this committee for the past 11 years and as a member of the Cameco board since 1994. The committee is committed to working hard on behalf of the board and overseeing all compensation matters in the best interests of Cameco and its shareholders.

I hope this brief overview has given you more insight to our approach to executive compensation and how it is linked to performance and the long-term interests of Cameco and its shareholders.

Human resources and compensation committee

2014 MANAGEMENT PROXY CIRCULAR    55

Cameco compensation practices

The human resources and compensation committee ensures our executive compensation program is based on sound decision-making processes and is competitive, pays for performance, motivates and attracts talent, and focuses on creating shareholder value.

WHAT WE DO

ü Pay for performance– 80% of the compensation for the CEO is at-risk pay – variable, contingent on performance and not guaranteed (see page 63).

ü Share ownership– we require all of our executives to own shares in Cameco and to retain their current shares and obtain additional shares using the proceeds from redeeming or exercising vested equity awards until they have met their target ownership (see page 65).

ü Performance based vesting – 60% of the long-term incentive vests at the end of three years based on absolute performance, relative TSR and relative average realized uranium price (see page 71).

ü Benchmarking – we benchmark executive compensation against a size and industry appropriate comparator group and target compensation to the median of the group (see page 64).

ü Caps on incentive payouts – our STI and PSU plans are designed to pay out at a maximum of 200% of target for exceptional performance and the human resources and compensation committee and board cannot exceed this cap (see pages 45 and 68).

ü Stress testing and back testing – the committee stress tests different scenarios to assess appropriateness and avoid excess risk-taking, and looks back at long-term incentive awards previously granted (see page 44).

ü Clawbacks – our clawback policy applies to all executives and all incentive compensation awarded (see page 44).

ü Anti-hedging – directors, executives and other employees are prohibited from hedging their shares or equity-based compensation (see page 45).

ü Independent advice – the committee receives compensation advice from an independent advisor (see page 45).

ü Realized and realizable pay – the value ultimately realized from a long-term incentive award can be significantly different from the grant value. Share price is only one factor that affects the payout value. (see page 60).

ü Modest benefits and perquisites – these are a small part of total compensation and are market competitive (see page 74).

ü Employment agreements – employment agreements with the named executives protect specialized knowledge, contacts and connections obtained while at Cameco (see page 92).

ü Double trigger – the severance provisions in our executive employment agreements and our LTI plans have double triggers in the event of a change of control (see page 93).

WHAT WE DON’T DO

x No repricing of stock options.

x No dividend equivalents on PSUs until they vest.

x No tax gross-ups.

x No bonus amounts or value of equity awards included in pension calculations (see page 73).

See Compensation governance on page 44 and the CD&A beginning on page 63 for more information.

Executive compensation and strategy

Cameco’s strategy is to generate long-term shareholder value by aligning our growth with market signals to take advantage of the growth we see coming in our industry. The board is a strategic asset, working directly with management in the development of the strategic plan. Management’s primary focus is on executing existing projects, operating with an optimal asset base and maximizing efficiencies to remain competitive. The board plays a key role in overseeing risk and execution of the corporate strategy and challenging management on their progress.

We establish corporate objectives to achieve our strategic plan and our executive compensation program is directly aligned with the strategic plan:

• measures within these objectives form the basis of the compensable targets under the short-term incentive plan

• performance share units (PSUs) measure absolute and relative performance over a three-year period. The value realized is based on outcomes against targets based on our long-term strategic goals, relative TSR, relative uranium price and absolute production and share performance.

Compensation timeline

The chart below shows the different components that make up total direct compensation for our executives. Our short-term incentive plan offers the potential for executives to earn a cash bonus based on their success in achieving pre-established corporate and individual performance targets for the year.

Long-term incentives include a PSU plan and stock option plan, which have different terms for vesting and payouts. These incentive plans focus management on the importance of future value and drive corporate performance over the longer term.

Performance-based vesting and share price fluctuation can have a dramatic impact on the realized and realizable value of equity-based compensation. The named executives only realized 47.4% of the grant value of the 2011 PSU awards that vested at the end of 2013 (see pages 80 through 82). Option awards granted to the named executives over five of the past eight years are under water (exercise price is greater than the share price as of December 31, 2013).

CEO compensation summary

	Tim Gitzel became president and CEO of Cameco Corporation on July 1, 2011.
	Tim joined Cameco in January 2007 as senior vice-president and chief operating officer and was appointed president in May 2010. He has extensive experience in Canadian and international uranium mining through 19 years of senior management experience.
	2013 pay mix
	2013 base salary and short-term incentive
	Tim’s total cash compensation in 2013 was $1,703,000, including:
	•       base salary unchanged from 2012
	•       an annual cash bonus of $785,000, which was 90% of his target award.
	Our STI plan for 2013 was based on 12 objectives which scored 83.7% of target.
Tim Gitzel
President and CEO
	Long-term (equity-based) incentives
	Tim receives 61.8% of his compensation on a deferred basis as long-term incentives. This is at- risk, equity- based compensation – when our share price increases, so will the value Tim receives from the long-term incentives and the value is not received for several years.
	The table below shows the grant and current realized and realizable value of long-term incentives awardedto Tim from 2011 to 2013. 2011 PSUs vested on December 31, 2013 with a realized value of $468,716. As no value has been paid out on the RSUs granted to Tim in the same time period, their current realizable value is based on $22.04, the closing price of a Cameco share on the TSX on December 31, 2013. His options have a current value of $249,240 because the exercise prices of two awards granted between 2011 and 2013 are less than our share price on December 31, 2013.
	The total realized and realizable value of Tim’s long-term incentive compensation is only 31% of the total grant value, highlighting the link to pay for performance.
	To quantify the long-term incentives, we are reporting the grant date and current values over the three-year period to provide a reasonable reflection of long-term compensation because PSUs and RSUs pay out after three years and options vest over three years.

CEO’s compensation lookback

The information in this section is for the three-year period 2011 to 2013. The table below shows the value of Tim Gitzel’s compensation disclosed in the summary compensation table in the past three years compared to the realized and realizable value of this same compensation.

Tim was president for the first half of 2011, and president and CEO for the second half of 2011 and all of 2012 and 2013. His realized and realizable pay in each year is lower than the grant date value disclosed in the summary compensation table, demonstrating the alignment between our compensation program and performance. Cameco has had strong financial, production and safety results in this three-year period, however, TSR has been below target. Less compensation is realized and realizable when all performance measures do not show positive results.

• Base salary – salary amounts paid each year. Tim was awarded an annual base salary of $900,000 when he assumed the position of president and CEO on July 1, 2011. He received a 2% salary increase in 2012 and no salary increase in 2013.

• Annual incentive pay – bonus amounts paid each year. Tim was awarded a bonus of $785,000 in 2013, $790,000 in 2012 and $762,000 in 2011 (pro-rated for six months in the CEO role). Had he been in the role for the full year in 2011, his bonus would have been $962,000. Comparing the annualized amount for 2011 against the actual amount for 2012, his bonus decreased by 18% in 2012.

• RSUs paid out – no payouts made from 2011 to 2013. RSUs will vest and pay out in 2014.

• PSUs awarded and paid out– amounts paid out on PSUs awarded in 2009, 2010 and 2011 that vested in 2011, 2012 and 2013

• Options exercised – the amount earned from options exercised from 2011 to 2013. Tim did not exercise any stock options in 2011, 2012 or 2013.

• RSUs outstanding – value of RSUs awarded in 2011 using the closing share price on the TSX of $22.04 on December 31, 2013. Tim received one RSU grant when he became CEO in July 2011 that vests in July 2014.

• PSUs outstanding– the outstanding PSUs granted in 2012 and 2013 have been given a zero value because they are unvested performance-based awards that may have a zero payout value when they vest.

• Options granted and outstanding – the amount that could be earned upon exercise of options that were granted from 2011 to 2013 given the closing share price on the TSX of $22.04 on December 31, 2013. Options granted in 2012 and 2013 are in the money.

• Pension – pension values reported for 2011, 2012 and 2013 in the summary compensation table.

Share performance and executive compensation

The graph below compares our TSR to the S&P/TSX Composite Total Return Index for the past five years, assuming an initial $100 investment at the beginning of 2009 and reinvestment of dividends. It also compares our TSR to the named executives’ compensation and shows a strong correlation between our share performance and realized and realizable compensation.

• The three-year average reported compensation is for the named executives during the three-year period ending in the designated year. It reflects the sum of total compensation over the three years from the summary compensation table in our previous management proxy circulars, divided by three.

• The three-year average estimated realized and realizable compensation is for the named executives during the three-year period ending in the designated year. It reflects the sum of estimated realized and realizable compensation over the three years, including base salary, short-term incentive bonus, realized or realizable amounts for LTI (PSUs, options and RSUs) and pension value, divided by three. These amounts have been determined in the same manner as the total realized and realizable compensation in theCEO’s compensation lookback table on page 59.

• We believe the method of three-year averages provides a reasonable reflection of long-term compensation because PSUs and RSUs pay out after three years and options vest over three years.

MARKET CONTEXT

In 2008, the global financial crisis caused a dramatic drop in the share prices of all publicly-traded companies, including Cameco. Share prices began to recover as confidence in financial markets began to be restored in 2009. At the same time, the uranium market entered a period of discretionary purchasing due to the high uranium prices and contracting levels of uranium during the 2005 to 2007 time frame, causing the uranium price to remain relatively stable until mid-2010.

In June 2010, Chinese utilities began to sign long-term uranium contracts for significant volumes. This became a catalyst for the market as the uranium spot price rose from the $40/lb (US) range to over $70/lb (US) by the end of the year. Our share price is closely correlated with the uranium spot price and has followed a similar pattern.

In March of 2011, the events at the Fukushima nuclear power plants in Japan had an immediate and negative effect on share prices of companies involved in uranium exploration, development and production. As a result, the uranium market entered a period of fundamental over-supply and discretionary purchasing, which initially caused uranium prices to fall, and then remain relatively stable throughout 2012.

In 2013, a slower than expected pace for reactor restarts in Japan, unexpected reactor shutdowns in the US and temporary shutdowns in South Korea led to demand erosion. Compounding the issue, the supply side performed well: primary supply remained stable while secondary supply increased modestly, primarily due to enricher

60    CAMECO CORPORATION

underfeeding. The impact of these conditions was the extension of the post-Fukushima inventory overhang and further downward price pressure.

Since 2008, our share price has followed a similar pattern. However, later in 2013 and early in 2014 our share price began to strengthen as some analysts began to upgrade their 2014 uranium market outlook in anticipation of Japanese reactor restarts in 2014 and in response to further announced primary supply discipline.

The graph below compares our share price to uranium prices over the past six years with a timeline of key industry and other events for context.

About executive compensation

The table shows the trend in total compensation awarded to our named executives from 2009 to 2013. The grant date value of total compensation for the named executives is the total annual compensation for the named executives disclosed in the summary compensation table in our previous management proxy circulars.

(IN MILLIONS)	2008		2009		2010		2011		2012		2013

compensation for the named executives in each year
Cameco TSR	$	100	$	163	$	195	$	90	$	98	$	112

• 2009 – the value of the long-term incentive awards was lower than the previous year because they were granted early in 2009 when there was a downturn in the economy and our share price was lower. Our share performance was stronger later in 2009.

• 2010 – total compensation increased in 2010 because of strong performance in virtually all aspects of our business. Our production and financial results exceeded expectations and generally our results in all other areas of the business met or exceeded expectations.

• 2011 – base salaries and incentive awards for the five equivalent executive positions were lower because of changes in the five positions that were partly offset by a retention incentive granted to Tim Gitzel when he was appointed president and CEO. Total compensation declined in 2011, but proportionately less than our share performance because we delivered excellent financial and operating results.

• 2012 – the executive team received modest increases in base salary. Although corporate performance was strong, the short-term incentive bonus was significantly reduced from 2011 because we did not fully meet some of our compensable targets. The bonuses for the CEO and CFO appear to be slightly higher in 2012 than 2011 because they are based on a full year in their new roles, versus only a half year in 2011.

• 2013 – the executive team received no increases in base salary. Although our corporate performance was solid, we did not fully meet some of our compensable targets and continued to be affected by industry conditions (see pages 76 to 78). The short-term incentive bonuses awarded to our named executives are less than in 2012.

Executive compensation

Compensation discussion and analysis

1. Approach

Our executive compensation program is based on strong principles, a disciplined process and thorough research and analysis.

Our program has three goals:

1. Attract, retain and motivate our executives, who are operating in a highly demanding, complex and competitive business environment.

2. Establish a clear link between corporate performance and executive pay.

3. Motivate executives to create shareholder value by:

• using total shareholder return as a performance measure

• rewarding them when they successfully achieve corporate and individual performance objectives over the short and long term

• ensuring a significant portion of their total compensation is at risk, reinforcing the importance of strong leadership and their ability to influence business outcomes and financial performance, and tied to share value to align the interests of executives and shareholders.

COMPENSATION TARGETS

We target base salaries and total compensation at the median of our comparator group.

The charts below show the 2013 target mix for direct compensation for our senior executives, and the amount of at-risk compensation.

About the compensation mix

We use financial and operational measures to assess performance for short- and long-term incentives.

60% of the 2013 long-term incentive vests based on performance.

2014 MANAGEMENT PROXY CIRCULAR    63

RESEARCH AND BENCHMARKING

We use national, provincial and industry compensation forecasts and benchmark our executive compensation against our comparator group for individual compensation components and total compensation by level of executive. Performance, scope of the role, seniority and internal equity are also considered. We engage an independent compensation consultant for advice and analysis to make sure our executive compensation is fair and competitive and we are balanced in our decision-making.

As a publicly-traded, global nuclear energy company based in Canada, we have no peers that are directly comparable, so the human resources and compensation committee, with the support of its independent consultant, established a comparator group of companies to assess compensation levels.

Comparator group

We use one comparator group to benchmark our director and executive compensation and to assess relative performance.

The comparator group represents a cross-section of Canadian capital intensive companies from different sectors that are similar in size based on assets, revenue, enterprise value and market capitalization. Other selection criteria include relevant industries, capital intensive businesses, business complexity, regulated industries, operations in multiple geographic locations and jurisdictions, and having a Canadian head office, which are the same principles and criteria we used to establish the comparator group from 2009 to 2012.

SHARE OWNERSHIP

We require our executives to own Cameco shares so they have a vested interest in the company aligned with shareholders.

Our share ownership guidelines are a multiple of base salary:

• CEO – 4 x base salary

• senior vice-presidents – 2 x base salary

• vice-presidents – 1 x base salary.

Executives must meet their ownership targets within five years of being appointed to the position. If an executive is promoted resulting in a higher share ownership requirement, he or she will have an additional three years to meet the incremental requirement. Executives are required to obtain additional shares with the after-tax proceeds from redeeming PSU or RSU awards or exercising stock options until they have met their share ownership requirement (seeProgram changes for 2014on page 75).

The table below shows the number of shares held by our named executives at December 31, 2013. We calculate the target value of share ownership by using their 2013 base salary and the multiplier for their position. Share value is based on $22.04, the closing price of Cameco common shares on the TSX on December 31, 2013 or the executive’s purchase price, whichever is higher. See notes to the table below for information on determining the PSU and RSU values.

2014 MANAGEMENT PROXY CIRCULAR    65

2. Annual decision-making process

The board, human resources and compensation committee and management are involved in compensation decision-making. The committee is responsible for making compensation recommendations, and the board makes the final decisions on executive compensation.

The illustration below shows our process, the different inputs we use to determine compensation and the flow of information, recommendations and approval by our board.

ASSESSING THE PROGRAM

The human resources and compensation committee believes that it is good practice to review our compensation programs each year and continued this practice in 2013 (read about the changes planned for 2014 on page 75).

The committee reviews all policies and programs relating to executive compensation, which involves:

• establishing the annual corporate objectives to measure performance

• determining the proposed base salaries, short-term incentive awards, grants of performance share unit awards and stock options

• evaluating performance

• reviewing and recommending executive compensation to the board for review and approval.

The committee retains an external consultant as an independent advisor on compensation matters, and it is involved in the compensation review. Management retains a different external consultant as a general resource on human resources and other matters (seeCompensation governance on page 44 for more information).

66    CAMECO CORPORATION

3. Measuring performance

Compensation decisions are based on corporate and individual performance.

CORPORATE PERFORMANCE

We assess our corporate performance by how well we achieve both operational and financial goals.

Our corporate objectives are grouped into our four measures of success:

• Outstanding financial performance

• Safe, healthy and rewarding workplace

• Clean environment

• Supportive communities.

The board approves our corporate objectives every year, as recommended by management and following a review by the human resources and compensation committee. These objectives support our strategic plan. All of the corporate objectives become the CEO’s individual objectives, and are allocated among the senior vice-presidents to form part of their individual objectives. The CEO’s individual objectives also include leadership expectations established by the board.

A number of corporate objectives were chosen as performance measures under our short-term incentive (STI) plan. The table beginning on page 77 lists our 2013 corporate objectives and the threshold, target, maximum and actual performance against these objectives under the STI plan.

Under our PSU plan, we assess performance over a three-year period based on three objectives, including TSR. These objectives were recommended by management, reviewed by the human resources and compensation committee and then recommended to the board for approval. The table on page 72 sets out the measures for PSUs granted in 2013.

PSU awards granted in 2011 are measured against four performance targets. They vested on December 31, 2013 and were paid out early in 2014 based on our performance against those four targets for the three-year performance period (see pages 80 to 82 for the performance assessment and details of the payout).

Performance measures under our STI and PSU plans are linked to our strategic plan to ensure our long-term growth and focus on creating shareholder value. The better we perform, the greater the potential to realize a higher payout value.

INDIVIDUAL PERFORMANCE

The board assesses the CEO’s individual performance using the annual corporate objectives and recommendations by the human resources and compensation committee, which are based on:

• overall corporate performance

• implementation of the CEO’s strategies to increase shareholder value

• achievement of the CEO’s individual performance objectives.

The committee reviews reports from management and the CEO’s self-assessment and consults with its compensation consultant before making its recommendation to the board.

At the beginning of the year, the CEO establishes individual performance objectives for each senior vice-president, allocating and weighting the annual corporate performance objectives by individual based on the executive’s influence in a given area. At the end of the year, the CEO compares actual performance to the targets and prepares a report on each senior vice-president that summarizes their individual performance and leadership effectiveness, which is discussed with the committee. The committee then consults with its compensation consultant, and makes its recommendations to the board.

The board approves all final decisions on executive compensation. See page 83 for details about the compensation decisions in 2014.

4. Compensation components
Five components make up total executive compensation:
•     Base salary
•     Short-term incentive (STI)	}	at-risk compensation
•     Long-term incentive (LTI)
•     Pension
•     Group benefits

TYPE OF COMPENSATION	FORM	PERFORMANCE PERIOD	HOW IT IS DETERMINED	RISK MANAGEMENT FEATURES
Fixed compensation	Provides market competitive level of fixed compensation
Base salary (page 69)	Cash	One year	Based on market competitiveness among the comparator group, individual performance, seniority, scope of the role and internal equity.	Fixed pay, paid throughout the year, and provides a certainty at a base level for fulfilling their responsibilities. Represents 20% or less of target direct compensation of the named executives
Variable (at-risk) compensation	STI compensation encourages achievement of pre-established corporate and individual performance objectives. Payout is subject to clawback policy (effective January 1, 2013)
Short-term incentive (page 69)	Cash	One year	Focuses on specific annual objectives. Target award based on market competitiveness among the comparator group and other factors. Actual award based on corporate and individual performance.	Provides a balanced focus on short-term performance based on pre-determined set of balanced performance metrics weighted and scored in our scorecard. Actual payout on all metrics could be 0-200%. Targets and results are approved by the board. Use of 12 balanced and diverse performance metrics reduces risk associated with emphasis on single (or limited) performance measures.
Variable (at-risk) compensation	LTI compensation provides incentive to achieve longer term performance and opportunity to receive equity-based compensation and align with shareholder interests, including reaching required share ownership levels. Payout is tied to Cameco share performance and subject to clawback policy (effective January 1, 2013)
Long-term incentive (page 70)	Performance share units	Three-year term, with vesting at the end of three years	Focuses on longer-term objectives (three years). Target award based on market competitiveness of the LTI package among the comparator group and other factors. Actual payout based on our overall performance, combining a balanced scorecard of: •     average relative realized uranium price •     increased production •     three-year relative total shareholder return. At the board’s discretion, payment is made in Cameco shares purchased on the open market, or in cash.	Performance is measured on previously established targets. Three-year vesting period maintains longer term focus for decision-making and management of business. Vesting and payout eligibility capped. Payout on the relative TSR metric could be 0-200% and on the other metrics could be 0-150%. Stretch targets based on an improvement in historical performance.
	Stock options	Eight-year term, with one-third vesting each of the first three years starting on the first anniversary of the grant date	Target award based on market competitiveness of the LTI package among the comparator group and other factors. The final realized value is based on the appreciation of Cameco’s share price.	Provides a balanced incentive to take appropriate risks. Three-year vesting eligibility period and eight-year term maintain longer term focus for decision-making and management of business. Represents significant portion of total direct compensation.
	Restricted share units	Three-year term, with vesting at the end of three years	Mainly used as a targeted retention tool in individual circumstances. At the board’s discretion, payment is made in Cameco shares purchased on the open market, or in cash.	Three-year vesting and eligibility period supports retention and longer-term focus for decision-making.

We also have employment agreements with our named executives (see page 92).

BASE SALARY

We benchmark base salaries approximately at the median of the comparator group.

We review base salaries every year, and compare them to similar positions in the comparator group. Then we review our corporate performance, the individual’s performance, seniority and scope of the role and internal equity to make sure any increases are fair and balanced. Salary adjustments for our senior executives go into effect as of January 1.

SHORT-TERM INCENTIVE PLAN

The STI plan gives executives the opportunity to earn a cash bonus based on their success in achieving pre-established corporate and individual performance targets for the year.

For named executives, corporate performance is weighted higher than individual performance. Awards range from 0 to 150% of the STI targets (compensable targets) established for the year, based on the level of performance. We have to meet a minimum level of performance (threshold) for each measure before being eligible for any payout on that measure. The threshold performance level is 80% of the target, which provides a 50% payout on that measure. Achieving 100% of target produces 100% payout on that measure. The maximum payout on any STI target is 150% for achieving 120% of the target. There is no payout if performance is below threshold.

The human resources and compensation committee sets the target bonus for each executive based on position, internal equity and market competitiveness. The table below shows the current target levels and weightings used to establish the actual awards. The weightings are the same for all executives, which promotes executive teamwork and better aligns the interests of executives and shareholders. Actual bonuses are based on performance for the year and paid in the following year after our year-end results are released.

POSITION	STI TARGET FOR 2013 (% OF BASE SALARY)			CORPORATE PERFORMANCE WEIGHTING			INDIVIDUAL PERFORMANCE WEIGHTING
CEO		95	%		80	%		20	%
Senior vice-presidents		50 to 70	%		80	%		20	%

Determining the payout

We use a balanced scorecard to broadly measure performance and give participants a clearer picture of their potential award. The scorecard has a number of weighted objectives (compensable targets) aimed at driving annual performance in key areas. The objectives (compensable targets) are tied to our four measures of success and individual performance measures.

We calculate STI as follows:

2014 MANAGEMENT PROXY CIRCULAR    69

Measuring corporate performance

The board establishes the measures and weightings every year based on the recommendation of the committee. These objectives represent our four measures of success, and are grouped into two sets of measures that each add up to 100%. The product of these two sets of measures is the corporate performance multiplier. See pages 77 and 78 for the objectives and results of each measure for the 2013 STI.

The human resources and compensation committee consults with the safety, health and environment committee on our performance related to safety, health and the environment and related corporate results as part of the process in determining the STI awards.

Measuring individual performance

Assessment of individual performance is based on the executive’s contribution to corporate performance and individual performance measures, and these assessments are approved by the committee.

The committee determines the measures and weightings for assessing the CEO’s performance, while the CEO establishes the same for the senior executives.

Using discretion

The board can increase or decrease the amount of the bonus when there are significant external challenges or opportunities that were not contemplated or reasonably expected when the objectives were set. It cannot exceed the maximum payout of 200%.

LONG-TERM INCENTIVE

LTI provides executives and other employees the opportunity to receive equity-based compensation to drive longer-term performance. Both the committee and the board confirmed the importance of equity-based compensation to stay competitive, motivate employees to deliver strong longer-term performance and link their interests with those of shareholders.

The combination of PSUs, options and RSUs allows us to use different vesting criteria, eligibility and performance measures for at-risk compensation (see page 75 for details about changes in participation starting in 2014).

AWARD	HOW IT’S USED	BUSINESS FOCUS	WHO PARTICIPATES	VESTING	HOW IT’S SETTLED	ALIGNED WITH SHAREHOLDERS

70    CAMECO CORPORATION

Determining the mix

The committee evaluates the mix of options and PSUs every year, and discusses national trends with its compensation consultant, including the importance of stock options in our industry and the emphasis Canadian public companies continue to place on stock options and other equity-based awards. The committee takes into account previous awards of PSUs, options and RSUs when it considers new LTI grants.

Governance concerns have been expressed about the use of stock options and the committee regularly reviews the merits of keeping stock options in our compensation program. Stock options are a tax-efficient incentive focused on share performance that provides a longer-term horizon for at-risk compensation and are a common form of LTI in our comparator group.

The committee set the 2013 target mix of the expected value of the long-term incentives at 60% PSUs and 40% options (compared to a mix of 40/60 for the previous three years) so that a higher percentage of LTI has performance vesting. Companies in our comparator group typically have a higher percentage of time-vesting LTI than we do.

LTI awards are granted every year on March 1 (or the next business day if March 1 falls on a weekend) after we publicly disclose our results for the previous fiscal year. If we impose a trading blackout period that includes March 1, we will make the grants on the next trading day after the blackout period has ended. The committee takes into account equity awards previously granted when it determines the PSU and option awards each year.

The board can make special LTI grants at other times during the year, for retention or other special reasons.

Non-executive employees (union and non-unionized) participate in the employee share ownership plan (ESOP). We make annual base contributions to the plan, and match 50% of employee contributions up to a maximum of 1.5% of an employee’s base salary. Executives do not participate in ESOP because they participate in the PSU plan.

Performance share unit plan

The PSU plan design is described in the table on the previous page. The formula below shows how the performance factors determine the final number of PSUs on vesting, to exchange for Cameco common shares.

Each PSU represents an opportunity to receive a Cameco common share purchased on the open market at the end of the three-year performance period (or cash, at the board’s discretion). PSUs do not earn dividend equivalents until they vest.

We use a scorecard to align senior management’s compensation with their ability to improve corporate performance over the three years. As of 2013, performance measures are based on a combination of two corporate measures, one absolute and one relative, and relative TSR, which has the highest weighting of the three measures. The PSUs measure absolute and relative performance so management maintains a balanced, longer-term focus on delivering shareholder value. We removed the measure for capital costs to eliminate duplication and keep the focus on annual performance of capital projects under the STI plan.

The human resources and compensation committee reviews the performance targets every year and recommends them to the board for approval. They are reasonably challenging stretch targets and are largely within the control of our executive team. The table below shows the targets and weightings for PSUs awarded in 2013.

2014 MANAGEMENT PROXY CIRCULAR    71

TARGET	WEIGHTING
Average relative realized uranium price 0 to 150%	30%	Achieve an average realized price for uranium sales for a three-year period that exceeds the weighted average price for sales in two independent industry benchmarks for the same period: • EIA (U.S. energy information administration) price for sales in the US • ESA (Euratom supply agency) price for sales in Europe. The payout at the end of the three-year period is based on 2012, 2013 and 2014 sales due to timing of when pricing information is available.	Measures relative performance to our competitors. Consistently achieving higher prices than our competitors is a stretch target because uranium is a fungible product and we need to be creative in our sales efforts in order to distinguish our uranium from our competitors and achieve a premium price. We use these pricing indicators because they are the only ones that are publicly available. See page 52 for our performance compared to other pure uranium companies.
Increased production 0 to 150%	30%	Increase production of U308by 3.8 million pounds over 2011 production of 22.4 million pounds, over the three-year period 2012 to 2014 to a cumulative total of 71 million pounds (our share).	Measures absolute performance and ties directly to our strategic plan.
Our three-year average total shareholder return (TSR) 0 to 200%	40%	Achieve three-year average TSR at the median of the three-year average TSR achieved by companies in our comparator group. We define TSR as the change in price of a Cameco common share, including reinvestment of dividends, on the TSX during the three-year period from 2013 to 2015.	Measures relative performance and weighting was increased from 30% to 40% in 2013.
Performance multiplier		The overall performance factor is the sum of the three weighted targets above.
Initial grant of PSUs		Notional units awarded at the beginning of the three-year performance period.
PSU payout		Payout amount is the initial number of PSUs granted, multiplied by the PSU performance multiplier, exchanged for the equivalent number of Cameco common shares.

Performance multiplier

The performance multiplier for each measure depends on our performance against each target. The table below shows how we assess performance against each measure.

Threshold performance for TSR is 35% of target, which is in line with market practice ranging between 25% and 40% for threshold performance. The TSR measure is a good reflection of performance when comparing to like companies in a comparable industry and same commodity. As Cameco’s comparators are not influenced by the price of uranium, we believe that this is a challenging performance target in the current depressed uranium market, and a threshold of the 35^th percentile of our comparator group is challenging to trigger at 50% payout on this metric.

PERFORMANCE MEASURES (AND WEIGHTING)	THRESHOLD PERFORMANCE	IF WE ACHIEVE:	THEN THE PERFORMANCE MULTIPLIER IS:
Average realized uranium price (30%)	80% of our target of 100%	Less than 80% of the corresponding target	0%
		80 to 120% of the corresponding target	50 to 150% (in a straight-line interpolation)
Increased production (30%)		More than 120% of the corresponding target	150 to 200% (in a straight-line interpolation with board discretion)
Our three-year average TSR(40%)	35th percentile (target is the 50th percentile)	Below the 35th percentile among our comparator group	0%
		From the 35th to the 75th percentile	40 to 200% (in a straight-line interpolation with 100% at the 50th percentile)
		Higher than the 75th percentile	200%

72    CAMECO CORPORATION

Vesting

Payout curves have been established for each performance measure, taking into account different levels of threshold performance to determine the performance multiplier and to cap payouts to eliminate any excessive risk taking.

Applying discretion

The committee can make adjustments at its discretion, such as:

• adjusting a performance measure, target measure and/or two or more weightings when things change (i.e., when a financial indicator no longer exists or has materially changed, or is no longer relevant to our business)

• increasing the weighting of any of the performance multipliers up to a maximum of 200% for extraordinary performance, subject to the approval of the board, or decreasing the weighting if performance does not meet expectations.

Using discretion helps reduce the possibility that anyone unduly benefits from or suffers because of events that are unforeseen or out of their control, and helps us manage compensation risk.

Stock option plan

Our stock option plan is designed for management, certain professional employees and employees with supervisory responsibilities. The committee takes into account previous equity awards when it considers new grants of options. In 2013, 1,094 employees participated in the plan.

The board fixes the exercise price of an option at the time of the grant at the TSX closing price of Cameco common shares on the trading day immediately before the date of the grant.

If an option holder leaves the company, any unvested options will vest during a specific period of time depending on the reason for leaving. Vested options can be exercised during the same period. SeeTermination and change of control benefitsstarting on page 92 for details.

No more than 10% of our total shares issued and outstanding can be issued to insiders in a year under the stock option plan and any other security-based compensation arrangement. An employee participating in the plan can only hold up to 5% of our total common shares issued and outstanding. Options cannot be transferred to another person (other than by will or intestate succession).

Our securities trading and reporting policy prohibits the securitization of stock options. This means that transactions that could be perceived as speculative or influenced by positive or negative perceptions of Cameco’s prospects, including through the use of puts, calls, collars, spread bets, contracts for difference and hedging transactions, are prohibited, better aligning the interests of employees and shareholders.

Making changes

The board can change, suspend or terminate the plan subject to the laws that apply, including but not limited to the rules, regulations and policies of any stock exchange where our shares are listed. Some changes may require approval from shareholders or a governmental or regulatory body.

Neither the board, the human resources and compensation committee nor shareholders can alter or affect the rights of an option holder in a negative way

without his or her consent, except as described in the plan. See Appendix C for information about the changes that must be approved by shareholders.

The summary compensation table on page 84 gives information about the grant date value of options awarded to the named executives over the past three years. TheIncentive plan awards table on page 87 gives information about the 2013 year-end value of the named executives’ unexercised options.

International employees

Our non-North American stock option plan (phantom plan) allows eligible employees of our international subsidiaries to participate in our overall growth and profitability in permitted jurisdictions.

The phantom plan has the same objectives and features as our stock option plan, except that these option holders have the right to receive cash payments rather than Cameco shares. The cash amount equals the difference between the closing market price of a Cameco share on the day prior to the exercise date and the exercise price of a phantom stock option.

Restricted share units

RSUs are granted from time to time on the recommendation of the committee and approval by the board, and are mainly used as a targeted retention tool.

Each RSU represents one notional common share that vests at the end of three years. The board has the discretion to decide if the payout is made in Cameco shares purchased on the open market, or in cash based on the weighted average closing price of Cameco shares on the TSX for the 20 trading days prior to the vesting date, after deducting withholding taxes.

PENSION

Pensions are an integral part of total compensation and a cost-effective and important benefit for attracting and retaining executives and other employees. Executives participate in a registered base plan and a supplemental program.

Registered base plan

We have a registered defined contribution plan for most of our

2014 MANAGEMENT PROXY CIRCULAR    73

employees. All of the named executives participate in our defined contribution plan, except for

Gary Chad who participates in a registered defined benefit plan. For named executives who are participants in the defined contribution plan, we contribute 12% of the employee’s pensionable earnings to the plan on a bi-weekly basis up to the annual dollar limit allowed by the Canada Revenue Agency. The maximum dollar amount for 2013 was $24,270.

Supplemental program

This non-contributory supplemental defined benefit program is designed to attract and retain talented executives over the longer term. It is also designed to provide a retirement income that is commensurate with the executive’s salary and offset the strict limits under theIncome Tax Act(Canada) relating to registered pension plans.

All of our Canadian-based management at the vice-president level and above participate in the supplemental executive pension program (seePension benefitson page 89 for more information).

BENEFITS

Group benefits

We provide group benefits to all our employees. The named executives participate in the same program and receive coverage similar to those offered by companies in our comparator group. These benefits include life insurance, long-term disability insurance, extended health care, dental care and emergency medical coverage.

Perquisites

Our named executives also receive additional benefits as part of their total compensation, similar to those offered by companies in our comparator group. These include a financial and tax planning allowance, a vehicle allowance, an executive medical plan and salary protection in the event of short-term disability.

5. Program changes for 2014

Following the comprehensive compensation review conducted in 2012 by the human resources and compensation committee and implementation of a number of program changes, the committee recommended some further enhancements to the program. The board approved the following recommendations in late 2013 or early 2014, and all changes went into effect starting in 2014.

COMPARATOR GROUP

In 2013, we used one comparator group to benchmark compensation and assess relative performance. Cameco is positioned close to the median of the comparator group.

Benchmarking compensation and performance against a single group simplifies our performance assessment and clarifies compensation decisions relating to our PSU plan. We are somewhat restricted in assessing our relative performance, however, because there are no Canadian-based, publicly-traded uranium companies that are similar in size to us.

The comparator group decreased in size from 15 companies to 13 in 2013 due to the acquisition of Nexen Inc. and Inmet Mining Corporation, so Mercer conducted research and analysis to create an expanded performance and comparator group. The committee approved the new group after receiving input from Meridian, its independent compensation consultant.

Eight companies were added to form a 21-member comparator group that includes companies from the oil and gas, and mining industries. The companies meet the established principles and size criteria and will be used beginning in 2014. Uranium companies were also reviewed but not included because they are significantly smaller than Cameco and their shares are more thinly traded relative to Cameco.

LONG-TERM INCENTIVES

Stock options will be granted only to vice-presidents and above. Other management employees will receive RSU awards rather than options as a more effective retention tool and long-term incentive. We are providing a one-year transition allowing these management employees to elect options or RSUs in 2014.

In light of the highly competitive mining industry and the ability of Cameco executives to move to other mining companies not impacted by the uranium market, the committee recommended granting RSUs to certain key executive officers to keep our core executive team together during this critical time of implementing our strategy for growth. The RSUs were granted to three executives on March 3, 2014 with a three-year vesting period. The three executives must hold these RSUs until their share ownership requirement is met or an additional two years after vesting, whichever is longer (see page 65 for details).

SHARE OWNERSHIP

Executives are required to hold their current Cameco shares and retain the net after-tax value of shares received on any vested equity award, redemption or exercise until they have met their target ownership.

SALARY INCREASES

The named executives received modest salary increases of 2.0% for 2014, except for Ken Seitz who received an 11% increase in salary to position him appropriately with our comparator group.

6. 2013 Performance and compensation

BASE SALARY

The named executives did not receive salary increases for 2013. Based on the solid company performance in a challenging market environment and the expected salary increases in Western Canada, there was a sound rationale for a salary increase of 3% for 2013, similar to the level of the comparator group. Considering our share performance and to enhance the alignment with shareholder interests, the CEO recommended no increase in base salary for himself and the other named executives for 2013. The committee and board approved this recommendation. Base salaries are reported in the summary compensation table on page 84.

SHORT-TERM INCENTIVE PLAN

The STI award is based on targets set for each named executive as a percentage of base salary and actual corporate and individual performance, and the targets are slightly below those of our comparator group. The plan design is based 80% on corporate performance and 20% on individual performance for all executives. The new weighting was effective with the 2013 award, which was paid in 2014 after our year-end results were released.

The 2013 awards were less than last year as corporate performance was assessed at 83.7% for 2013, compared to 88.2% for 2012. The CEO’s 2013 bonus decreased by 1% in 2013, compared to an average decrease of 11% for the other named executives, largely due to the increased weighting of corporate performance from 60% to 80% for the other named executives.

STI awards are reported in the summary compensation table on page 84, and you can find a complete description of the plan design beginning on page 69.

Corporate performance

The 12 compensable targets are a combination of financial and non-financial measures and are directly linked to our strategy to profitably produce at a pace aligned with market signals to allow us to take advantage of the world’s increasing demand for energy without encouraging excessive risk-taking. They represent our four measures of success and highlight the importance we place on our financial and operational results and the social and environmental aspects of our business as a responsible corporation and global leader in corporate social responsibility.

2013 STI performance was assessed at 83.7% based on twelve specific, compensable targets. The financial performance measures motivate balanced focus and emphasize stretch components, resulting in more impact on executive behaviour and compensation. Detailed STI performance results and weightings are reported in the following table.

2013 results

Our performance in 2013 continued to be affected by industry conditions; however, performance was solid.

We took decisive steps and actions to renew our focus on cost management and successful implementation of these actions is reflected in our strong financial results. We also delivered strong performance in terms of our operations, health and safety and clean environment.

We did not achieve all of our targets in 2013, however. We were unable to achieve our growth measure of first production from Cigar Lake. This was an important milestone for Cameco and is reflected by its relative weighting in our overall performance. Performance was also lower than expected in the area of supportive communities compared to our targets.

The business decisions we made to support our four measures of success resulted in steady progress and solid performance overall in 2013.

Cigar Lake measure •  Achieve production at Cigar Lake in 2013.	•  In 2013, we made strong progress toward production, including jetting in waste, assembling a second jet boring system underground, and commissioning most of the other mine systems. We were also successful in obtaining the required construction and operating licence. However, production of the first packaged pounds was delayed as a result of additional work to ensure the safe, efficient operation of the mine and mill. In December, we began jet boring in ore, and have since completed the first cavity in ore.	Production by Q1 2014	Production by Q4 2013	Production by Q3 2013	20%	0%

•  Achieve a 2% increase (15 net additions) in resident of Saskatchewan’s north (RSN) employment over 2012. •  Support northern business development opportunities by procuring at least 75% of Northern Services Spend from North Saskatchewan vendors.	•  Overall RSN employment decreased seven positions from 2012 to 747 positions due to overall workforce reduction. However, we were successful in adding 18 RSN employees at Cigar Lake, and maintained a 50% RSN workforce overall at the northern sites.	12	15	18	7.5%	0%
	•  Only 67% of northern services were procured from northern Saskatchewan vendors. This was due to disproportionate growth in overall spend, cost efficiencies and temporary increase in expenditures, largely growth capital at Cigar Lake which required specialized services not available from northern Saskatchewan vendors.	70%	75%	100%	7.5%	0%
	•  Over the past few years, overall spend has grown faster than the growth in capacity of northern vendors. Despite not achieving our targeted ratio, the nominal business volume with northern Saskatchewan vendors has more than doubled since 2009.

¹  We useadjusted net earnings andcash flow from operations (before working capital changes) as a more meaningful way to compare our financial performance from period to period. These measures do not have a standardized meaning or a consistent basis of calculation under IFRS (non-IFRS measure), and they should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial information prepared in accordance with IFRS. Other companies may calculate these measures differently. Adjusted net earnings (non-IFRS measure) is our net earnings attributable to equity holders, adjusted to better reflect the underlying financial performance for the reporting period. This measure reflects the matching of the net benefits of our hedging program with the inflows of foreign currencies in the applicable reporting period and adjusted for impairment charges, inventory write downs, losses on exploration interests and income taxes on adjustments. For further details regarding this measure, see page 28 of the management’s discussion and analysis for our audited 2013 financial statements. Cash flow from operations (before working capital changes) of $669 million is cash provided by operations of $530 million with the changes in non-cash working capital of $139 million added back. Changes in non-cash working capital includes changes in accounts receivable, inventories, supplies and prepaid expenses, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and certain other operating items, as further detailed in note 24 to our audited 2013 financial statements.

Examples of “recordable injuries” are a medical treatment (other than first aid), restricted work, lost time and other specific injuries such as 10 decibel hearing loss, loss of consciousness and broken bone. DART is a measure of the rate of workplace injuries and illnesses that require employees to miss work, perform restricted work activities or transfer to another job within a calendar year.

The STI payout curves below illustrate the zero payout for performance below threshold at 80% of target and the 200% cap on payouts. The cap on payouts mitigates excessive risk-taking.

Individual performance

Three individual core measures were set for 2013, similar to those set in previous years:

Key operating results

Strategic change initiatives        }         The committee can also add any other performance measures it deems appropriate

Leadership effectiveness

The committee decided to use these same measures to assess Tim Gitzel’s performance for 2013, and reviewed overall corporate performance, implementation of our strategy to achieve shareholder value, the recommendations from the compensation consultant and the CEO’s own self-assessment in developing its recommendation for the board.

The committee reviewed our key operating results for 2013 and considered Tim’s contribution to these strong results, and his leadership effectiveness and impact on strategic change initiatives. The board discussed the results of the CEO assessment and considered the committee’s recommendation during anin camera session without management present before approving the CEO’s 2013 STI award.

The CEO decides which measures will be used for the other executives, sets the weightings for each, and conducts a performance assessment for each senior vice-president. Senior vice-presidents assess the performance of vice-presidents. For each of the senior vice-presidents, the CEO provided a detailed assessment of their performance, particular achievements and leadership. The committee considered these assessments in light of the key operating results for 2013 and approved the CEO’s recommended performance assessments for each of the senior vice-presidents.

LONG-TERM INCENTIVE PLAN

Each LTI grant is based on individual performance, the level of the position, internal equity and overall market competitiveness. The LTI grant to executives in 2013 was benchmarked at the median of the comparator group. LTI awards are reported in theIncentive plan awardstable on page 87.

Grant value vs. payout value

The grant value of the PSUs in 2011 was based on $39.53, our closing share price on the TSX on the day prior to the grant (as disclosed in the summary compensation table of our 2012 proxy circular).

The payout amount is the initial number of PSUs granted, multiplied by the PSU performance multiplier, resulting in a calculated payout of 68.5% of the number of PSUs granted and 47.4% of the original grant date value based on performance and share price.

The table below shows the calculation of the payout on March 3, 2014 for each named executive. The value of the payout is based on $27.37, the actual average purchase price of our common shares purchased on the TSX on behalf of the named executives on March 3, 2014.

7. 2014 Compensation decisions

BASE SALARY

The named executives received modest salary increases of 2.0% for 2014, except for Ken Seitz who received an 11% increase in base salary to align his compensation with our comparator group.

SHORT-TERM INCENTIVE PLAN

Decisions about the 2014 STI award will be made in February 2015, once our 2014 results are finalized and approved by the board.

LONG-TERM INCENTIVE PLANS

2014 LTI awards

Each LTI award is based on individual performance, the level of the position, internal equity and overall market competitiveness. LTI awards granted to executives in early 2014 were benchmarked at the median of the comparator group and based on a percentage of base salary.

PSUs and options were granted to the named executives on March 3, 2014 as follows:

• The PSUs vest at the end of a three-year period based on the achievement of performance criteria. The expected value of the LTI award is made up of 60% PSUs and 40% options. A higher proportion of the PSUs was introduced in 2013 to increase the link between pay and performance and alignment with shareholders.

• The targets and weightings for the PSUs granted are average realized uranium price relative to industry benchmarks (30%), increased production (30%) and our three-year average total shareholder return (TSR) (40%) relative to our comparator group. Our average TSR will be based on our relative performance against companies in our comparator group (see page 75).

RSUs were granted to two named executives, Grant Isaac and Ken Seitz, as follows:

• The RSU value is two times their 2013 base salary and the units will vest at the end of a three-year period.

• The named executives must hold the RSUs until their share ownership requirement is met or for two years after vesting, whichever is longer.

1. Value of options

Options granted on March 3, 2014 expire on March 2, 2022 and are valued at approximately $7.24 per option using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The compensation consultant used the following key assumptions in the model when comparing companies.

Dividend yield (%)	Volatility (%)		Risk-free rate (%)		Expected life (years)		Exercise price ($)
1.8		32.8		1.7		5.5		26.81

In its analysis for the human resources and compensation committee, the compensation consultant estimated the expected value of Cameco’s options using the expected life of the option (average of a full term of eight years and a three-year vesting period). This approach is consistent with the majority of companies in our comparator group and is sensitive to the assumptions used, the figures may not be directly comparable across companies, but for compensation valuation purposes a consistent approach has been used. The exercise price of $26.81 per option is based on the closing price of Cameco shares on the TSX on the day immediately before the grant.

2. PSUs granted

The number of PSUs reflect 100% of the original number of PSUs awarded and has not been adjusted to reflect performance. The actual number of PSUs earned can vary from 0 to 200% of the original number granted based on corporate performance.

3. Value of PSUs granted

The values represent the number of PSUs granted to each named executive, multiplied by $26.81, the closing price of Cameco shares on the TSX on the day immediately before the grant.

The PSUs granted on March 3, 2014 are for the three-year performance period from January 1, 2014 to December 31, 2016.

There were no base salary increases for the named executives in 2013.

2. Share-based awards

These amounts reflect the grant date value of the actual number of PSUs originally awarded, using the closing price of a Cameco share on the TSX on the day before the grant. The number of PSUs that the named executives will actually earn can vary from 0 to 150% of the original number of PSUs granted, depending on performance (the board can pay up to 200% if performance is exceptional).

Tim Gitzel’s grant date value in 2011 includes a PSU value of $988,250 and RSU value of $1,780,800. We awarded the following PSUs to the named executives from 2011 to 2013:

	March 1, 2013			May 15, 2012		March 1, 2011
Tim Gitzel		75,100			52,100		25,000
Grant Isaac		25,000			17,400		8,000
Robert Steane		38,300			26,500		15,000
Ken Seitz		22,900			15,900		8,000
Gary Chad		19,300	��		13,400		8,000
Grant price	$	22.00		$	21.14	$	39.53

For purposes of financial statement disclosure, the PSUs were valued at $21.45 per unit for 2013, $20.05 per unit for 2012 and $42.11 per unit for 2011 using a Monte Carlo pricing model and the key assumptions set out in the table below. This model is considered the most appropriate way to value a plan with a relative market condition like total shareholder return. The total fair value of the PSUs is amortized into income over their three-year vesting period and the weighted average of the expected retirement dates of the named executives, whichever is lower. The non-market criteria relating to realized selling prices, production targets and cost control have been incorporated into the valuation at grant date by reviewing prior history and corporate budgets.

When Tim Gitzel became president and CEO on July 1, 2011, he received a retention incentive of restricted share units (RSUs) that do not vest until July 1, 2014 at a grant date value of $25.44, the closing price of a Cameco share on the TSX the day before the grant:

RSUs awarded	# of units		Grant date value (per unit)		Vesting date
July 1, 2011		70,000	$	25.44		July 1, 2014

For purposes of financial statement disclosure, the RSUs were also valued at $25.44 per unit for 2011 using the Black-Scholes valuation model, a strike price of zero, and the following key assumptions:

	Expected dividend ($)		Expected volatility (%)		Risk-free rate (%)		Expected life (years)	Expected forfeitures (%)
July 2011		0.40		39.0		2.53			—

3. Option-based awards

These amounts reflect the grant date value of the actual number of options originally granted using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model and key assumptions determined by the compensation consultants and listed below.

Tim Gitzel’s grant date value in 2011 includes $1,275,000 for 75,000 options granted in March 2011 and $542,000 for 50,000 options granted in July 2011.

The table below shows the number of options granted to the named executives over the last three years and the corresponding grant date valuations. When Tim Gitzel became president and CEO on July 1, 2011, he received a retention incentive that included 50,000 stock options that vest over three years and have an eight-year term.

	March 1, 2013		May 15, 2012		July 1, 2011		March 1, 2011
Tim Gitzel		187,500		268,600		50,000		75,000
Grant Isaac		62,500		89,500				25,000
Robert Steane		95,500		136,800				50,000
Ken Seitz		57,200		81,900				25,000
Gary Chad		48,200		69,100				25,000
Grant date valuation (per option)	$	5.87	$	6.15	$	10.84	$	17.00

The human resources and compensation committee reviewed estimates of the value of the options on the grant dates that were prepared by Mercer (March 2013, May 2012, July 2011 and March 2011). It then recommended to the board the number of options to grant, which the board approved. The compensation consultants used the Black-Scholes option-pricing model and the following key assumptions:

	Dividend yield (%)		Volatility (%)		Risk-free rate (%)		Expected life (years)		Exercise price ($)
March 2013		1.90		33.7		1.3		5.5		22.00
May 2012		1.80		35.8		1.6		5.5		21.14
July 2011		1.20		49.6		2.2		5.5		25.44
March 2011		0.90		50.1		1.5		5.5		39.53

As this approach may not be identical to that used by other companies and is sensitive to the assumptions used, the figures may not be directly comparable across companies, however a consistent approach has been used for compensation valuation purposes. For March 2011 and thereafter, the expected life assumption was changed from previous years, and was based on Mercer’s calculation of the expected life of Cameco options and options issued by companies in the comparator group in effect at the time. They calculated the expected life by adding the actual term (eight years) to the vesting period (three years), and dividing in half. Hugessen Consulting Inc., the committee’s independent consultant in 2011, confirmed that Mercer’s calculation for 2011 was also consistent with market practice.

For purposes of financial statement disclosure, options were valued at $6.51 (awarded in March 2013), $7.21 (awarded in May 2012), $8.03 (awarded in July 2011) and $13.36 (awarded in March 2011) each on the date of the grant. We used the Black-Scholes option-pricing model all three years and the following key assumptions:

	Dividend yield (%)		Volatility (%)		Risk-free rate (%)		Expected life (years)		Exercise price ($)
March 2013		1.82		40.5		1.2		4.4		22.00
May 2012		1.89		47.3		1.4		4.3		21.14
July 2011		1.57		38.0		2.33		5.0		25.44
March 2011		1.01		38.0		2.6		5.05		39.53

These accounting value assumptions are different from the compensation value assumptions in the calculations above. The human resources and compensation committee uses the compensation valuation method and assumptions used in valuing compensation of companies in the comparator group to allow for a better comparison with market comparators.

The accounting value assumptions are based on our own internal research and past experience of how employees exercise their options. The difference per option granted between the two models is:

• March 2013—$0.64

• May 2012 – $1.06

• July 2011 – $2.81

• March 2011 – $3.64

For purposes of financial statement disclosure, the options were amortized over their three-year vesting period or the weighted average of the years to expected retirement of the named executives, whichever was lower.

4. Annual incentive plans

These amounts were earned in the fiscal year shown and were paid in the following fiscal year.

2014 MANAGEMENT PROXY CIRCULAR    85

5. Pension value

The amounts for Tim Gitzel, Grant Isaac, Robert Steane and Ken Seitz include company contributions under the registered defined contribution pension plan, plus the projected value of the pension earned in each year for service credited under the supplemental executive pension program. Pension value for Gary Chad includes the projected value of the pension earned in each year for service credited under the registered defined benefit plan and the supplemental executive pension program.

6.All other compensation

This amount does not include perquisites and other personal benefits because they total less than $50,000 and less than 10% of the annual salary for any of the named executives. Perquisites and benefits are valued at the cost to Cameco and include commissions to buy shares with PSU payouts, life insurance premiums, long-term disability premiums, a financial and tax planning allowance, an executive medical plan and a vehicle allowance.

1. The number of options and exercise prices have been adjusted to reflect stock splits of Cameco shares.

2. The PSU awards are subject to performance conditions and valued at the minimum possible payout of zero. The 70,000 RSUs awarded to Tim Gitzel on July 1, 2011 are not subject to performance conditions so they are valued at $22.04, the closing price of Cameco shares on the TSX on December 31, 2013.

2014 MANAGEMENT PROXY CIRCULAR    87

The next table shows the:

• total value of the named executive’s options when they vested during 2013

• share-based awards that vested at the end of 2013 and were paid out in 2014

• short-term incentive award earned in 2013 and paid in 2014.

1. Option-based awards

The amounts reflect the pre-tax value that the executives would have realized if they had exercised their options that vested in 2013, on the date they vested. Options that had a positive value at the time of vesting are included in the calculation of these figures.

2. Share-based awards

The amounts are the values of the PSUs that were granted in 2011, vested at December 31, 2013 and were paid out to the named executives on March 3, 2014 at $27.37 (the actual average purchase price of our common shares purchased on the TSX on behalf of the named executives on that date). The compensation value we previously disclosed for these PSUs was based on the target number of PSUs multiplied by the share value on their grant date. The named executives realized 47.4% of the grant date value of the PSUs that were granted as part of their total compensation for 2011.

3. Non-equity incentive plan compensation

The amounts are the STI payments for 2013 that were paid in 2014.

Pension benefits

DEFINED BENEFIT PLAN

Gary Chad has reached the normal retirement age under our registered defined benefit plan, and is eligible to retire immediately with no reduction in pension. He will continue to earn additional benefits under the plan until April 1, 2014, which is his actual retirement date.

The plan is being phased out and will only exist for as long as current members, retirees and their spouses are entitled to receive benefits. The plan has been closed to new members since 1997.

TheIncome Tax Act(Canada) limits the annual benefits that can be accrued under a defined benefit plan. The limit for 2013 was $2,697 for each year of credited pensionable service, and pension benefits cannot be earned on the portion of salaries above approximately $134,850 per year.

DEFINED CONTRIBUTION PLAN

All regular, full-time employees participate in our registered defined contribution plan as of December 31, 2013, except for Gary Chad who participates in our registered defined benefit plan.

Under theIncome Tax Act(Canada), the plan had a contribution limit of $24,270 in 2013, based on a salary of approximately $202,250.

SUPPLEMENTAL EXECUTIVE PENSION PROGRAM

The supplemental executive pension program is aimed at attracting and retaining talented executives. The program is designed to provide a lump sum retirement benefit that is consistent with the executive’s salary and to offset the strict limits of registered pension plans under theIncome Tax Act(Canada).

All Canadian-based executives participate in this program, but they must also participate in either our defined benefit plan or defined contribution plan. The program had 19 active members as at December 31, 2013, with one inactive member, 17 retirees and spouses of deceased retirees who were receiving a pension and three former members with deferred entitlements. This includes certain officers of wholly-owned subsidiaries who were previously eligible to participate in this program.

2014 MANAGEMENT PROXY CIRCULAR    89

The supplemental benefit is calculated as follows:

	1.8% (3.0% for CEO and senior vice-presidents for service since January 1, 1998) of average of highest consecutive three years of base salary (excluding bonuses and taxable benefits)
x	number of years of credited service
	Determination of the commuted value of the annual benefit
–	benefits payable under the base plan
=	overall lump sum benefit under the supplemental program

The supplemental program benefit is based on actual years of service from the participant’s date of hire with Cameco up to the date of termination, or until the end of the notice period for termination without cause. It is calculated on base salary, and unlike other companies, does not include bonuses as part of the pensionable earnings. The program does not allow past service credits or any kind of accelerated service. Full benefits are paid at the normal retirement age of 65, but are also payable starting at 60 years of age if the person has 20 years of service.

The supplemental program, except for benefits for participants who are US taxpayers, is funded by letter of credit held by the program’s trustees. The liability of the unfunded benefit was approximately $83,300 ($0 for the named executives) as of December 31, 2013. The face amount of the letter of credit will be determined each year based on the wind-up liabilities of the supplemental program (excluding benefits for US taxpayers), less any program assets. The face amount of the letter of credit for 2013 was $17,300,000. The trustee would be able to draw on the letter of credit to pay benefits to members following specified trigger events. Benefits will continue to be paid from the trust assets until the fund is exhausted, at which time Cameco will begin paying benefits from corporate assets.

EARLY RETIREMENT

Under our registered defined contribution plan, members can transfer their account balance or begin receiving a benefit any time after termination, so early retirement does not apply. Tim Gitzel, Grant Isaac, Robert Steane and Ken Seitz are members of this plan.

Under our supplemental executive pension program, Gary Chad and Robert Steane are eligible to retire with full benefit. The other named executives can take early retirement starting at age 55, however, the formula benefit will be reduced by 0.25% for each month before the defined age (at least age 60 with at least 20 years of continuous employment, or age 65, whichever is earlier).

EXECUTIVE PENSION VALUE DISCLOSURE

The table below shows the estimated annual pension service costs for the defined benefit plans and Cameco’s contribution to the defined contribution plans as the compensatory change. It also shows the accrued pension obligations and annual pension payable under our pension plans for each of the named executives.

1. Annual benefits payable

Gary Chad participates in our registered defined benefit pension plan and does not have any defined contribution costs, and the other four named executives participate in our registered defined contribution plan. All of the named executives participate in our supplemental executive pension program.

The annual benefits payable for Gary Chad include benefits under the registered defined benefit pension plan and the supplemental executive pension program. The annual benefits payable for the other named executives include benefits under the registered defined contribution pension plan and the supplemental executive pension program. The defined contribution costs for these four named executives are also included in the service cost as described underCompensatory change. The annual benefits payable do not take into account any early retirement reductions or vesting requirements.

The amounts underat age 65 are based on current compensation levels and assume accrued years of service to age 65 for each of the named executives. Under our supplemental executive pension program, the named executives are eligible to retire at age 55, which would reduce the pension benefits they are entitled to receive.

Annual benefits payable at year end andat age 65 are based on final average earnings as at December 31, 2013.

2. Defined benefit obligation at start of yearis based on December 31, 2012 accounting assumptions.

Defined benefit obligation at start of year and thecompensatory change are estimated totals that include our registered defined benefit pension plan, registered defined contribution pension plan and supplemental executive pension program. They are based on assumptions representing entitlements in employment agreements that may change over time. The methods we used to determine these estimates may not be exactly the same as methods other companies use, so the figures may not be directly comparable.

We used the following key assumptions to estimate these benefit obligations:

• 100% vesting

• a retirement age of 63 or one year after the valuation date if 63 years of age or older. The assumed retirement age of 63 is management’s best estimate for determining the accrued benefit obligation as at December 31, 2012, as reported in our financial statements.

• salary increases of 3.0% each year

• a discount rate of 4.0% each year to determine the benefit obligation

• a long-term rate of return on defined contribution plan assets of 6.0%

• benefits are pre-tax.

See note 26 to our audited2013 financial statements (in our2013 annual report and also on our website) for more information about our pension plans.

3. Compensatory changeis the value of the projected pension earned from January 1, 2013 to December 31, 2013 for our registered defined benefit pension plan, registered defined contribution pension plan and supplemental executive pension program.

4. Non-compensatory change includes changes such as changes in assumptions (other than those used to estimate the compensatory change), employee contributions and interest on the accrued obligation at the start of the year.

5. Defined benefit obligation at year endis the value of the named executive’s projected pension earned for service up to December 31, 2013 under our registered defined benefit pension plan, registered defined contribution pension plan and supplemental executive pension program. It is based on December 31, 2013 accounting assumptions and includes RRSP balances included in the base plan, if any.

We used the following key assumptions to estimate these benefit obligations:

• 100% vesting

• a retirement age of 63 or one year after the valuation date if 63 years of age or older. The assumed retirement age of 63 is management’s best estimate for determining the accrued benefit obligation as at December 31, 2013, as reported in our financial statements.

• salary increases of 3.0% each year

• a discount rate of 4.75% each year to determine the benefit obligation

• a long-term rate of return on defined contribution plan assets of 6.0%

• benefits are pre-tax.

The pension amounts for Tim Gitzel, Grant Isaac, Robert Steane and Ken Seitz equal the value of their accumulated contributions under the registered defined contribution pension plan, supplemented by amounts based on final average earnings and service under the supplemental executive pension program (a defined benefit plan).

Loans to executives

As of March 10, 2014, we and our subsidiaries had no loans outstanding to our current or former named executives, except routine indebtedness as defined under Canadian securities laws.

2014 MANAGEMENT PROXY CIRCULAR    91

Termination and change of control benefits

We have employment agreements with the named executives. They are for an indefinite period and provide for:

• a base salary

• participation in the short-term incentive plan

• participation in the long-term incentive plans (including PSUs and options)

• participation in the employee defined contribution pension plan (other than Gary Chad who participates in the defined benefit pension plan) and the supplemental executive pension plan.

The agreements also include post-termination obligations requiring that the named executives do not:

• use or disclose specialized knowledge, contracts and connections obtained while at Cameco

• compete against us in any way for 12 months after leaving the organization

• solicit any of our customers, suppliers or employees or harm our relationships with any of them for 12 months (18 months for the CEO) after leaving the organization.

The summary on page 95 shows the incremental compensation that would be paid to the named executives if their employment had been terminated on December 31, 2013. If Robert Steane or Gary Chad had resigned, it would have been treated as retirement because they are eligible to retire. None of the named executives receive any incremental benefits if there is a change of control but no termination of employment.

CEO

Tim Gitzel’s employment agreement provides for:

• a retention incentive of 50,000 stock options granted on July 1, 2011, which vest over three years in 2012, 2013, and 2014, and 70,000 RSUs, also granted on July 1, 2011, which vest on July 1, 2014 and pay out (less withholding taxes) in Cameco shares purchased on the market, or cash, at the board’s discretion

• a requirement to hold four times his base salary in Cameco shares and qualifying PSUs by December 31, 2016

• a severance period of two years if he is terminated without cause

• a $7,000 annual allowance for tax advice ($14,000 in his retirement year)

• a requirement to give a minimum notice of six months for resignation or retirement

• accelerated vesting of certain equity awards if the CEO’s employment is terminated within 12 months following a change of control (see the summary on page 93 for details on compensation upon termination).

OTHER NAMED EXECUTIVES

The employment agreements for the other four named executives provide for:

• a requirement to hold two times their base salary in Cameco shares and qualifying PSUs by December 31 of the fifth year in their current positions

• a notice period of 18 months if they are terminated without cause (grandfathered at two years for Gary Chad)

• a $5,000 annual allowance for tax advice ($10,000 in their retirement year)

• a requirement to give a minimum notice of three months for resignation or retirement

• accelerated vesting of certain equity awards if employment is terminated within 12 months following a change of control (see the summary on page 93 for details on compensation upon termination).

The table below is a summary of the compensation that would be paid to the named executives if the employment of any of them is terminated. We believe the following terms are fair, competitive with the market and based on industry practice.

1. Retirement

At the discretion of the CEO and provided that the executive is at least 57 years old with at least 10 years of services when he retires, the executive may be eligible for post-retirement benefits including health, dental, accidental death and dismemberment, and life insurance. Also at the discretion of the CEO, a supplemental amount of $1,000 per month is paid until age 65, if the executive retires and is at least 57 years old with 10 years of service.

2. Resignation

Robert Steane and Gary Chad are eligible for early retirement and therefore the compensation that is paid if a senior executive resigns does not apply to them.

3. Termination without cause

The notice period for Tim Gitzel and Gary Chad is two years or the period remaining until age 65, whichever is earlier. The notice period for Grant Isaac, Robert Steane and Ken Seitz is 18 months or the period remaining until age 65, whichever is earlier.

4. Termination without cause within 12 months of a change of control

According to the ENL Reorganization Act, no person, alone or together with associates may hold, beneficially own or control, directly or indirectly, more than 25% of Cameco’s voting shares that can be cast to elect the directors. Because of the legislated restrictions on share ownership, there would have to be an act of federal parliament for anyone to hold more than 25% of our voting shares. For Tim Gitzel, change of control is defined as an entity holding 35% or more of our voting shares, transfer or lease of substantially all of the company’s assets, dissolution or liquidation of the company, or the board deciding that a change of control has occurred. For Grant lsaac, Robert Steane, Ken Seitz and Gary Chad, change of control is the same except that an entity must hold 50% or more of our voting shares.

94    CAMECO CORPORATION

The table below shows the incremental values that would be paid to the named executives if any of them had been terminated on December 31, 2013 or terminated without cause following a change of control. Cameco has legislated ownership restrictions under the ENL Reorganization Act. While a change of control is possible, it would require an act of parliament or one of the activities discussed in note 4 of the previous table.

1. STI bonus

If the executive resigns or is terminated for cause, he forfeits any outstanding STI bonus payment. We calculated the payment that he is forfeiting based on the STI bonus determined in 2014 for 2013 performance.

2. Options

The named executives only receive an incremental benefit on their options when there is a termination without cause with a change of control. Currently under the ENL Reorganization Act, a change of control for Cameco is not permitted. The amount shown is thein-the-money value at December 31, 2013 of the unvested options which would vest upon a termination without cause with a change of control at December 31, 2013.

3. PSUs and RSUs

If there is a retirement, termination without cause or death, the named executives may receive an incremental benefit for any outstanding PSUs, to account for the fact that our corporate performance may be better at the end of the year of termination, than it turns out to be at the end of the original three-year vesting period. In the table, we have assumed that the performance multiplier at the end of the assumed year of termination and at the end of the original three-year vesting period are the same so there is no incremental benefit at retirement, termination without cause or death.

2014 MANAGEMENT PROXY CIRCULAR    95

If the executive resigns or is terminated for cause, he forfeits any PSU payment. To determine the amount forfeited, we calculated the payout of the outstanding PSUs based on a 100% performance multiplier and the average closing price of a Cameco common share on the TSX over the first 20 trading days of 2014 of $23.29.

If the executive is terminated without cause with a change of control, all outstanding PSUs vest immediately at target and are paid out in the first quarter of 2014. The calculation of the PSUs in this situation is based on a share price of $23.29, the average closing price of a Cameco common share on the TSX over the first 20 trading days of 2014, as required under the PSU plan.

Only Tim Gitzel has RSUs. If Tim resigns or is terminated for cause, he forfeits any RSU payment. To determine the amount forfeited, we calculated the payout of the outstanding RSUs in accordance with the RSU plan based on a share price of $22.01, the average closing price of a Cameco common share on the TSX for the 20 trading days up to December 31, 2013. If Tim is terminated without cause with a change of control, all outstanding RSUs vest immediately, and are paid out in the first quarter of 2014. The calculation of the RSUs in this situation is based on the average closing price of a Cameco common share on the TSX for the 20 trading days up to December 31, 2013, as required under the RSU plan. If Tim dies, the outstanding RSUs are paid out pro-rated to the date of death. The calculation of the RSUs in this situation is based on the average closing price of a Cameco common share on the TSX for the 20 trading days up to December 31, 2013, as required under the RSU plan, multiplied by 30 months, which is the period from the grant date to December 31, 2013.

4. Benefits

Determined using a discount rate of 4.75% at December 31, 2013. At the discretion of the CEO, the executive may be eligible for post-retirement benefits including health, dental, accidental death and dismemberment, and life insurance provided that the executive is at least 57 years old with at least 10 years of service when he retires. Tim Gitzel, Grant Isaac and Ken Seitz are not eligible for post-retirement benefits because they had not reached the age of 57 on December 31, 2013.

5. Pension

The incremental pension benefit on termination without cause, with or without a change of control, is equal to the value of benefits to be credited according to the notice period for each executive and calculated using the December 31, 2013 accounting assumptions (same as the key assumptions set out in note 2 on page 91). The incremental pension benefit on death is the difference between the commuted value on resignation or retirement, if eligible, and the commuted value on death at December 31, 2013. If the commuted value on death is less than the commuted value on resignation (or retirement, in the case of Gary Chad and Robert Steane), his pension benefit is negative.

The table below shows the commuted values for resignation (retirement in the case of Robert Steane and Gary Chad). We estimated these values using the Canadian Institute of Actuaries’ Standard Practice for Determining Pension Commuted Values, and assumed:

• 100% vesting

• the executive’s age or age 55, whichever is later

• no salary increase after December 31, 2013

• a discount rate of 3.0% each of the next 10 years and 4.6% each year thereafter for Canadian and US liabilities

• benefits are pre-tax.

Commuted value	For retirement		On December 31, 2013
The commuted values are based on assumptions representing entitlements in the employment agreements, and these may change over time. The methods we use may not be exactly the same as those used by other companies, so you may not be able to compare our figures directly with those of other companies.		Robert Steane Gary Chad	$ $	5,952,100 4,739,800
	For resignation
		Tim Gitzel	$	2,237,900
		Grant Isaac	$	508,200
		Ken Seitz	$	1,172,100

6. Resignation

Based on their terms of employment in effect on December 31, 2013, if Tim Gitzel, Grant Isaac or Ken Seitz had voluntarily ended their employment on December 31, 2013, it would have been regarded as a resignation because of their age. They would not receive a severance and would have been required to give six months’ notice (CEO) or three months’ notice prior to resignation. We can waive this notice if we pay six/three months’ base salary. The table assumes that we did not waive the notice period.

7. Retirement

The termination on resignation estimate does not apply to Robert Steane and Gary Chad because they are both eligible to retire, and a resignation by either one of them would be treated as a retirement.

Appendix B

Board mandate

PURPOSE

The purpose of the board of directors (“board”) is to supervise the management of the business and affairs of the corporation. The board of directors will discharge this responsibility by developing and determining policy by which the business and affairs of the corporation are to be managed and by overseeing the management of the corporation.

COMPOSITION

The board is elected by the shareholders at the annual meeting of the shareholders of the corporation. The board shall appoint the chair annually from among its non-executive independent members. As fixed by the articles of the corporation, the board shall consist of at least three and not more than fifteen members. A majority of the directors shall be resident Canadians.

A majority of the directors shall be independent pursuant to standards for independence adopted by the board (as provided in Appendix A to this mandate).

MEETINGS

The board will schedule at least six regular meetings annually and as many additional meetings as necessary to carry out its duties effectively. The board will hold special meetings at least once a year to specifically discuss strategic planning and strategic issues.

A meeting of the board may be called by the chair, the chief executive officer or any two directors. The corporate secretary shall, upon the direction of any of the foregoing, arrange a meeting of the board. Notice of the time and place of each meeting of the board must be given to each director either by personal delivery, electronic mail, facsimile or other electronic means not less than 48 hours before the time of the meeting or by mail not less than 96 hours before the date of the meeting.

Appendix to the Board Mandate

Definition of independent director and related definitions

In these guidelines:

1. Following are the criteria for determining independence for purposes of membership on the board:

a. “independent director” means a director who has no direct or indirect material relationship with the corporation. For this purpose, a material relationship means a relationship which could, in the view of the board, reasonably interfere with the exercise of a director’s independent judgment. Despite the foregoing, the following individuals are considered to have a material relationship with the corporation:

i. an individual who is, or has been within the last three years, an employee or executive officer of the corporation;

ii. an individual whose immediate family member is, or has been within the last three years, an executive officer of the corporation;

iii. an individual who:

aa. is a partner of a firm that is the corporation’s internal or external auditor;

bb. is an employee of that firm; or

cc. was within the last three years a partner or employee of that firm and personally worked on the corporation’s audit within that time;

iv. an individual whose immediate family member:

aa. is a partner of a firm that is the corporation’s internal or external auditor;

bb. is an employee of that firm and participates in its audit, assurance or tax compliance (but not tax planning) practice; or

cc. was within the last three years a partner or employee of that firm and personally worked on the corporation’s audit within that time;

v. an individual who, or whose immediate family member, is or has been within the last three years, an executive officer of an entity if any of the corporation’s current executive officers serve or served at that same time on the entity’s compensation committee;

vi. an individual who received, or whose immediate family member received, more than US $120,000 (or Cdn. $75,000) in direct compensation from the corporation during any 12 month period within the last three years, other than as remuneration for acting in his or her capacity as a member of the board or any board committee, or as a part-time chair or vice-chair of the board or any board committee, and fixed amounts of compensation under a retirement plan (including deferred compensation) for prior service with the corporation if the compensation is not contingent in any way on continued service (and, for greater certainty, “direct compensation” does not include compensation received by an immediate family member for service as an employee of the corporation unless that immediate family member is an executive officer of Cameco Corporation);

vii. an individual who is a current employee, or whose immediate family member is a current executive officer, of an entity that has made payments to, or received payments from, the corporation for property or services in an amount which, in any of the last three fiscal years, exceeds the greater amount of $1 million, or 2% of such other entity’s consolidated gross revenues; and

viii. an individual who serves as an officer, director or trustee of a tax exempt organization, and the corporation’s discretionary charitable contributions to that organization exceed 1.5% of that organization’s total annual consolidated gross revenues within any of the last three fiscal years (providing that the corporation’s matching of employee charitable contributions will not be included in the amount of the corporation’s contributions for this purpose).

b. For purposes of section 1(a) all references to “the corporation” are deemed to include a subsidiary entity of the corporation and a parent of the corporation.

2. For purposes of this Appendix A, “immediate family member” means a person’s spouse, parent, child, sibling, mother-in-law, father-in-law, son-in-law, daughter-in-law, brother-in-law, sister-in-law, and anyone (other than a domestic employee of a person or family member) who shares that person’s home.

2014 MANAGEMENT PROXY CIRCULAR    101

3. For purposes of this Appendix A, a person or company is considered to be a subsidiary entity of another person or company if:

a. it is controlled by:

i. that other; or

ii. that other and one or more persons or companies each of which is controlled by that other; or

iii. two or more persons or companies, each of which is controlled by that other; or

b. it is a subsidiary entity of a person or company that is the other’s subsidiary entity.

4. For purposes of this Appendix A, “control” means the direct or indirect power to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of a person or company, whether through ownership of voting securities or otherwise.

5. For purposes of this Appendix A, “person” means an individual, partnership, unincorporated association, unincorporated syndicate, unincorporated organization, trust, trustee, executor, administrator or other legal representative.

6. In determining independence for purposes of the audit and finance committee, in addition to satisfying the board independence criteria, directors who are members of the audit and finance committee will not be considered independent for the purpose of membership on the audit and finance committee if:

a. the audit and finance committee member, or the member’s spouse, minor child or stepchild, or a child or stepchild who shares the member’s home, provides personal services to the corporation or its subsidiary for compensation (other than compensation for acting as a director);

b. the audit and finance committee member is a partner, member or principal of a consulting, legal, accounting, investment banking or financial services firm which provides services to the corporation or its subsidiary for fees, regardless of whether the audit and finance committee member personally provided the services for which the fees are paid; or

c. the audit and finance committee member is an affiliated entity of the corporation or any of its subsidiaries, where:

i. a person or company is considered to be an affiliated entity of another person or company if:

A. one of them controls or is controlled by the other or if both persons or companies are controlled by the same person or company, or

B. the person is an individual who is:

I. both a director and an employee of an affiliated entity; or

II. an executive officer, general partner or managing member of an affiliated entity;

i. despite subparagraph (c)(i)(B) above, an individual will not be considered to be an affiliated entity of the corporation if the individual:

A. owns, directly or indirectly, no more than ten per cent of any class of voting securities of the corporation; and is not an executive officer of the corporation.

B. Is not an executive officer of the corporation.

7. Notwithstanding the foregoing, on a case-by-case basis the board may determine that a director qualifies as an “independent director” for the purposes of section 1(a) despite having a relationship listed in that section, provided that the individual satisfies the Canadian director independence requirements set forth in Section 1.4 of National Instrument 52-110 of the Canadian Securities Administrators.

8. In determining independence for purposes of the human resources and compensation committee, in addition to satisfying the board independence criteria, the board of directors shall consider all factors specifically relevant in determining whether the director has a relationship to the corporation which is material to that director’s ability to be independent from management in connection with the duties of a human resources and compensation committee member. Such factors shall include, without limitation, the following:

a. The source of compensation of such director, including any consulting, advisory or other compensatory fee paid by the corporation. The board of directors shall also consider any compensation received by the director from any person or entity that would impair the director’s ability to make independent judgments about the corporation’s executive compensation; and

b. Whether the director is “affiliated” with the corporation or a subsidiary or affiliate of the corporation. In considering any such affiliate relationship, the board of directors shall consider whether the affiliate relationship places the director under the direct or indirect control of the corporation or its senior management, or creates a direct relationship between the director and members of senior management in each case that would impair his or her ability to make independent judgments about the corporation’s executive compensation. Share ownership shall not adversely affect a director’s ability to be independent from management as a human resources and compensation committee member.

6.2Advance Nomination.

a. Subject to the Act and the Articles, only persons who are nominated in accordance with the following procedures shall be eligible for election as directors of the Corporation.

i. by or at the direction of the Board, including pursuant to a notice of meeting;

ii. by or at the direction or request of one or more shareholders pursuant to a proposal made in accordance with the provisions of the Act, or a requisition of the shareholders made in accordance with the provisions of the Act; or

iii. by any person (a “Nominating Shareholder”) who: (A) at the close of business on the date of the giving of the notice provided for below in this section 6.2 and on the record date for notice of such meeting, is entered in the securities register as a holder of one or more shares carrying the right to vote at such meeting or who beneficially owns shares that are entitled to be voted at such meeting; and (B) complies with the notice procedures set forth below in this section 6.2.

b. In addition to any other applicable requirements, for a nomination to be made by a Nominating Shareholder to be valid, the Nominating Shareholder must have given timely notice thereof in proper written form to the Secretary of the Corporation at the principal executive offices of the Corporation.

c. To be timely, a Nominating Shareholder’s notice to the Secretary of the Corporation must be made:

i. in the case of an annual meeting of shareholders, not less than 30 nor more than 65 days prior to the date of the annual meeting of shareholders; provided, however, that in the event that the annual meeting of shareholders is to be held on a date that is less than 50 days after the date (the “Notice Date”) on which the first public announcement of the date of the annual meeting was made, notice by the Nominating Shareholder may be made not later than the close of business on the tenth (10th) day following the Notice Date; and

ii. in the case of a special meeting of shareholders (which is not also an annual meeting) called for the purpose of electing directors (whether or not called for other purposes), not later than the close of business on the fifteenth (15th) day following the day on which the first public announcement of the date of the special meeting was made.

In no event shall any adjournment or postponement of a meeting of shareholders or the announcement thereof commence a new time period for the giving of a Nominating Shareholder’s notice as described above.

d. To be in proper written form, a Nominating Shareholder’s notice to the Secretary of the Corporation must set forth:

i. as to each person whom the Nominating Shareholder proposes to nominate for election as a director: (A) the name, age, citizenship, business address and residential address of the person; (B) the principal occupation or employment of the person; (C) the class or series and number of shares in the capital of the Corporation which are controlled or which are owned beneficially or of record by the person as of the record date for the meeting of shareholders (if such date shall then have been made publicly available and shall have occurred) and as of the date of such notice; and (D) any other information relating to the person that would be required to be disclosed in a dissident’s proxy circular in connection with solicitations of proxies for election of directors pursuant to the Act and any other applicable laws; and

ii. as to the Nominating Shareholder giving the notice, any proxy, contract, arrangement, understanding or relationship pursuant to which such Nominating Shareholder has a right to vote any shares of the Corporation and any other information relating to such Nominating Shareholder that would be required to be made in a dissident’s proxy circular in connection with solicitations of proxies for election of directors pursuant to the Act and any other applicable laws.

The Corporation may require any proposed nominee to furnish such other information as may reasonably be required by the Corporation to determine the eligibility of such proposed nominee to serve as an independent director of the Corporation or that could be material to a reasonable shareholder’s understanding of the independence, or lack thereof, of such proposed nominee.

e. No person shall be eligible for election as a director of the Corporation unless nominated in accordance with the provisions of this section 6.2; provided, however, that nothing in this section 6.2 shall be deemed to preclude discussion by a shareholder (as distinct from the nomination of directors) at a meeting of shareholders of any matter in respect of which it would have been entitled to submit a proposal pursuant to the provisions of the Act. The chair of the meeting shall have the power and duty to determine whether a nomination was made in accordance with the procedures set forth in this section 6.2 and, if any proposed nomination is not in compliance with this section 6.2, to declare that such defective nomination shall be disregarded.
