The Company is using the notice and access provisions (“Notice and Access”) under the Canadian Securities Administrators’ National Instrument 54-101 - Communication with Beneficial Owners of Securities of a Reporting Issuer for the delivery of its Information Circular to its shareholders for the Meeting. Under Notice and Access, instead of receiving paper copies of the Information Circular, shareholders will be receiving a Notice and Access notification with information on how they may obtain a copy of the Information Circular electronically or request a paper copy. Registered shareholders will still receive a Proxy form enabling them to vote at the Meeting. The use of the alternative Notice and Access procedures in connection with the Meeting helps reduce paper use, as well as the Company’s printing and mailing costs. The Company will arrange to mail paper copies of the Information Circular to those registered shareholders who have existing instructions on their account to receive paper copies of the Company’s meeting materials.
The Information Circular and other Meeting materials will be available on the Company’s website at http://www.silvercrestmetals.com/investors/agm/ as of May 1, 2024 and will remain on the website for one full year thereafter. Meeting materials are also available upon request, without charge, by email at info@silvercrestmetals.com or by calling toll free at 1-866-691-1730 (Canada and U.S.A.) or at +1-604-694-1730, or can be accessed online on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca, as of May 1, 2024.
Only shareholders of record at the close of business on April 18, 2024 will be entitled to receive notice of, and to vote at, the Meeting or any adjournment thereof. Shareholders who are unable to or who do not wish to attend the Meeting in person are requested to date and sign the enclosed Proxy form promptly and return it in the self-addressed envelope enclosed for that purpose or by any of the other methods indicated in the Proxy form.

Alternatively, registered shareholders may vote by telephone (1-866-732-8683) or online (www.investorvote.com) using the control number listed on the Proxy from. If a registered shareholder receives more than one Proxy form because such shareholder owns shares registered in different names or addresses, each Proxy form should be completed and returned.
