MANAGEMENT INFORMATION CIRCULAR


FOR THE 2025 ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS

TO BE HELD AT 10:00 A.M. PACIFIC TIME ON NOVEMBER 28, 2025


Information herein is given as at October 24, 2025, except as otherwise stated.

This management information circular (the “Circular”) is furnished in connection with the solicitation of proxies by the management (the “Management”) of New Pacific Metals Corp. (the “Company”) for use at the annual general meeting (the “Meeting”) of the holders (the “Shareholders”) of Common shares (the “Common Shares”) of the Company to be held at the time and place and for the purposes set forth in the accompanying notice of meeting (the “Notice of Meeting”) and at any adjournments thereof.

Unless otherwise indicated herein, reference to “$”, “USD” or “U.S. dollars” are to United States dollars, and references to “CAD$” or “Canadian dollars” are to Canadian dollars.

SOLICITATION OF PROXIES

This solicitation is made on behalf of Management. Solicitation of proxies will be conducted by mail, and may be supplemented by telephone or other personal contact to be made without special compensation by directors, officers and employees of the Company or by the Company’s registrar and transfer agent, Computershare Investor Services Inc. (“Computershare”). All costs of solicitation will be borne by the Company. This Circular does not constitute the solicitation of an offer to purchase, or the making of an offer to sell, any securities or the solicitation by proxy by any person in any jurisdiction in which such solicitation or offer is not authorized or in which the person making such solicitation or offer is not qualified to do so or to any person to whom it is unlawful to make such solicitation or offer.

Unless the context otherwise requires, references herein to New Pacific Metals Corp. means the Company and its subsidiaries. The principal executive office of the Company is located at Suite 1750 – 1066 West Hastings Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, V6E 3X1. The Company’s telephone number is (604) 633-1368 and its website address is www.newpacificmetals.com. The information contained on the Company’s website is not incorporated by reference into this Circular. The registered and records office of the Company is located at Suite 1750 – 1066 West Hastings Street, Vancouver, British Columbia V6E 3X1.

PROXY INSTRUCTIONS

Appointment of Proxyholders

The persons named in the accompanying form of proxy (the “Form of Proxy”) are directors and officers of the Company. Each Shareholder has the right to appointsome other person, who need not be a Shareholder, to represent the Shareholder at the Meeting by striking out the names of the personsdesignated in the accompanying Form of Proxy and by inserting that other person’s name in the blank space provided.

The instrument appointing a proxyholder must be signed in writing by the Shareholder, or such Shareholder’s attorney duly authorized in writing. If signed by a duly authorized attorney, the Form of Proxy must be accompanied by the original power of attorney or a notarial certified copy thereof. If the Shareholder is a corporation, the instrument appointing a proxyholder must be in writing signed by an officer or attorney of the corporation duly authorized by resolutions of the directors of such corporation, which resolutions must accompany such instrument.

4

A proxy will only be valid if it is duly completed, signed, dated and received by Computershare in accordance with the instructions in the Form of Proxy, not less than 48 hours (excluding Saturdays, Sundays and statutory holidays) prior to the time set for the holding of the Meeting, (or any adjournment or postponement thereof) unless the Chair of the Meeting elects to exercise his discretion to accept proxies received subsequently.

Late proxies may be accepted or rejected by the Chair of the Meeting at his discretion and the Chair of the Meeting is under no obligation to accept or reject any particular late proxy. The Chair of the Meeting may waive or extend the proxy cut-off without notice.

REVOCATION OF PROXIES

A Shareholder may revoke a proxy by delivering an instrument in writing executed by the Shareholder or by the Shareholder’s attorney authorized in writing, or where the Shareholder is a corporation, by a duly authorized officer or attorney of the corporation, either at the office of the Company at any time up to and including the last business day preceding the day of the Meeting, or with the consent of the Chair of the Meeting on the day of the Meeting or on the day of any adjournment thereof, before any vote in respect of which the proxy is to be used shall have been taken. A Shareholder may also revoke a proxy by depositing another properly executed instrument appointing a proxyholder bearing a later date with Computershare in the manner described above, or in any other manner permitted by law. A revocation of a proxy does not affect any matter on which a vote has been taken prior to revocation.

HOW TO VOTE

Only registered Shareholders (each a “RegisteredShareholder”) or their duly appointed proxyholders are permitted to vote at the Meeting. Shareholders who hold their Common Shares through their brokers, intermediaries, trustees or other persons (“Intermediaries”), or who otherwise do not hold their Common Shares in their own name (“Beneficial Shareholders”) are not permitted to vote at the Meeting as only proxies from Registered Shareholders can be recognized and voted at the Meeting. You may vote as follows:

Registered Shareholders: If you are a Registered Shareholder, you may vote by attending the Meeting in person, or if you do not plan to attend the Meeting, by completing the proxy and delivering it according to the instructions contained in the Form of Proxy and this Circular.

Beneficial Shareholders: If you are a Beneficial Shareholder, you must vote by proxy by carefully following the instructions included in the proxy provided to you by your Intermediary. If you do not follow the special procedures described by your Intermediary, you will not be entitled to vote. See “Adviceto Beneficial Holders of Common Shares” below for more information.

In accordance with the requirements of National Instrument 54-101 Communication with Beneficial Owners of Securities of a Reporting Issuer (“NI 54-101”) of the Canadian Securities Administrators, the Company has distributed copies of the Notice of Meeting, this Circular and the Form of Proxy to the clearing agencies and Intermediaries for distribution to Beneficial Shareholder.

The Company encourages you to vote by proxy in advance of the Meeting. The Company may restrict access to the Meeting to Registered Shareholders or their duly appointed proxyholders. Those attending the Meeting in person will be required to comply with the then current direction and advice from federal, provincial and municipal levels of government concerning public gatherings.

Advice to Beneficial Holders of Common Shares

The information set forth in this section is of significant importance to many Shareholders, as a substantial number of Shareholders do not hold Common Shares in their own name. Beneficial Shareholders should note that only proxies deposited by Shareholders who appear on the records maintained by the Company’s registrar and transfer agent as Registered Shareholders will be recognized and acted upon at the Meeting. If Common Shares are listed in an account statement provided to a Beneficial Shareholder by an Intermediary, then those Common Shares will, in all likelihood,

5

not be registered in the Shareholder’s name. Such Common Shares will more likely be registered under the name of the Intermediary or agent thereof. In Canada, the vast majority of such Common Shares are registered under the name of CDS & Co. (the registration name for CDS Clearing and Depository Services Inc., which acts as nominee for many Canadian brokerage firms). In the United States, the vast majority of such Common Shares are registered under the name of Cede & Co., the registration name for The Depository Trust Company, which acts as nominee for many United States brokerage firms. Common Shares held by Intermediaries on behalf of a Beneficial Shareholder can only be voted or withheld at the direction of the Beneficial Shareholder. Without specific instructions, Intermediaries are prohibited from voting Common Shares for the Beneficial Shareholders. Therefore, each Beneficial Shareholder should ensure that voting instructions are communicated to the appropriate person well in advance of the Meeting.

Existing regulatory policy requires Intermediaries to seek voting instructions from Beneficial Shareholders in advance of Shareholder meetings. The various Intermediaries have their own mailing procedures and provide their own return instructions to clients, which should be carefully followed by Beneficial Shareholders in order to ensure that their Common Shares are voted at the Meeting. The form of instrument of proxy supplied to a Beneficial Shareholder by an Intermediary is substantially similar to the Form of Proxy provided directly to Registered Shareholders by the Company. However, its purpose is limited to instructing the Registered Shareholder (i.e., Intermediary) how to vote on behalf of the Beneficial Shareholder. The vast majority of brokers now delegate responsibility for obtaining instructions from clients to Broadridge Financial Solutions Inc. (“Broadridge”) in Canada. Broadridge typically prepares a machine-readable voting instruction form (“VIF”), mails those forms to Beneficial Shareholders and asks Beneficial Shareholders to return the VIFs to Broadridge, or otherwise communicate voting instructions to Broadridge (by way of the internet or telephone, for example). Broadridge then tabulates the results of all instructions received and provides appropriate instructions respecting the voting of Common Shares to be represented at the Meeting. A BeneficialShareholder who receives a VIF from Broadridge cannot use that form to vote Common Shares directly at the Meeting. The VIFs must be returnedto Broadridge (or instructions respecting the voting of Common Shares must otherwise be communicated to Broadridge) well in advance ofthe Meeting in order to have the Common Shares voted. If you have any questions respecting the voting of Common Shares held through anIntermediary, please contact that Intermediary for assistance.

The Notice of Meeting, this Circular, the Form of Proxy and VIF, as applicable, are being provided to both Registered Shareholders and Beneficial Shareholders. Beneficial Shareholders fall into two categories - those who object to their identity being known to the issuers of securities which they own (“OBOs”) and those who do not object to their identity being made known to the issuers of the securities which they own (“NOBOs”). Subject to the provisions of NI 54-101, issuers may request and obtain a list of their NOBOs from Intermediaries directly or via their transfer agent and may obtain and use the NOBO list for the distribution of proxy-related materials directly (not via Broadridge) to such NOBOs. If you are a Beneficial Shareholder and the Company or its agent has sent these materials directly to you, your name, address and information about your holdings of Common Shares have been obtained in accordance with applicable securities regulatory requirements from the Intermediary holding the Common Shares on your behalf.

The Company has distributed copies of the Notice of Meeting, Circular and VIF to Intermediaries for distribution to NOBOs. Unless you have waived your right to receive the Notice of Meeting, Circular and VIF, Intermediaries are required to deliver them to you as a NOBO and to seek your instructions on how to vote your Common Shares.

The Company’s OBOs can expect to be contacted by Broadridge or their Intermediaries or their Intermediaries’ agents as set out above. The Company does not intend to pay for Intermediaries to deliver the Notice of Meeting, Circular and VIF to OBOs and accordingly, if the OBO’s Intermediary does not assume the costs of delivery of those documents, in the event that the OBO wishes to receive them, the OBO may not receive the documentation.

Although a Beneficial Shareholder may not be recognized directly at the Meeting for the purposes of voting Common Shares registered in the name of its Intermediary, a Beneficial Shareholder may attend the Meeting as proxyholder for the Registered Shareholder and vote the Common Shares in that capacity. NI 54-101 allows a Beneficial Shareholder who is a NOBO to submit to the Company or an applicable Intermediary any document in writing that requests that the NOBO or a nominee of the NOBO be appointed as proxyholder. If such a request is received, the Company or an Intermediary, as applicable, must arrange, without expenses to the NOBO, to appoint such NOBO or its nominee as a proxyholder and to deposit that proxy within the time specified in this Circular, provided that the Company or the Intermediary receives such written instructions from the NOBO at least one business day prior to the time by which proxies are to be submitted at the Meeting, with the result that such a written request must be received by 9:00 a.m.

6

(Vancouver time) on the day which is at least three business days prior to the Meeting. A Beneficial Shareholder who wishes to attend the Meeting and to vote their Common Sharesas proxyholder for the Registered Shareholder, should enter their own name in the blank space on the VIF or such other document in writingthat requests that the NOBO or a nominee of the NOBO be appointed as proxyholder and return the same to their Intermediary or agent thereofin accordance with the instructions provided by such Intermediary.

All references to Shareholders in the Notice of Meeting, this Circular and the accompanying Form of Proxy are to Registered Shareholders as set forth on the list of Registered Shareholders as maintained by Computershare, unless specifically stated otherwise.

QUORUM

The articles of the Company (the “Articles”) provide that quorum for the transaction of business at any meeting of Shareholders is one Shareholder present at the Meeting in person or by proxy.

VOTING OF SHARES AND EXERCISE OF DISCRETION BY PROXIES

If you complete your proxy properly, then the nominee named in the accompanying Form of Proxy will vote or withhold from voting the Common Shares represented by the proxy in accordance with your instructions. If you do not specify a choice on any given matter to be voted upon, your Common Shares will be voted infavour of such matter. The proxy grants the nominee the discretion to vote on amendments or variations to matters identified in the Notice of the Meeting and with respect to other matters that may properly come before the Meeting.

INTEREST OF CERTAIN PERSONS IN MATTERS TO BE ACTED UPON

Other than as described in this Circular, no Person (as defined herein) has any material interest, direct or indirect, by way of beneficial ownership of Common Shares or otherwise, in matters to be acted upon at the Meeting other than the election of directors or the appointment of auditor. For the purpose of this paragraph, “Person” shall include each person: (a) who has been a director, senior officer or insider of the Company at any time since the commencement of the Company’s last completed financial year; (b) who is a proposed nominee for election as a director of the Company; or (c) who is an associate or affiliate of a person included in subparagraphs (a) or (b).

VOTING SHARES AND PRINCIPAL SHAREHOLDERS

The Company is authorized to issue an unlimited number of Common Shares without par value, each Common Share carrying the right to one vote. As of the Record Date (as defined below), the Company had 183,712,205 issued and outstanding fully paid and non-assessable Common Shares. The Company has no other classes of voting securities.

The board of directors of the Company (the “Board”) has fixed October 21, 2025 as the record date (the “Record Date”) for the determination of Shareholders entitled to receive the Notice of Meeting and to vote at the Meeting. Any transferee who acquires Common Shares after the Record Date and who wishes to attend the Meeting and to vote the transferred Common Shares must demand, not later than 10 days before the Meeting, to be included in the list of Shareholders prepared for the Meeting. Registered Shareholders should contact Computershare, and non-Registered Shareholders should contact the Intermediary through whom they acquired the Common Shares.

On a show of hands, every individual who is present as a Registered Shareholder or as a representative of a Registered Shareholder will have one vote (no matter how many Common Shares such Registered Shareholder holds). On a poll, every Registered Shareholder present in person or represented by a proxy and every person who is a representative of a Registered Shareholder, will have one vote for each Common Share registered in the name of the Registered Shareholder on the list of Registered Shareholders, which is available for inspection during normal business hours at Computershare and at the Meeting. Registered Shareholders represented by proxyholders are not entitled to vote on a show of hands.

7

To the best of the knowledge of the directors and officers of the Company, as at the date of this Circular, there are no Persons or companies beneficially owning or exercising control or direction, directly or indirectly, Common Shares carrying 10% or more of the voting rights attached to all outstanding Common Shares, except as follows:

Name Number of Common Shares Percentage of Outstanding Common Shares
Silvercorp Metals Inc. (“Silvercorp”) 51,426,988 27.99%
Pan American Silver Corporation 21,071,264 11.47%

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Financial information regarding the Company and its affairs is provided in the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and management discussion and analysis (“MD&A”) for its fiscal year ended June 30, 2025. Shareholders may contact the Company at the address set out on the face page of this Circular to request free copies of the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and MD&A. Alternatively, they can be found under the Company’s profile on the System for Electronic Document Analysis and Retrieval (“SEDAR+”) at www.sedarplus.ca, on EDGAR at www.sec.gov and on the Company’s website at www.newpacificmetals.com.

PARTICULARS OF MATTERS TO BE ACTED UPON

NUMBER OF DIRECTORS

The Board presently consists of six directors. Management proposes that the number of directors on the Board be fixed at six. Shareholders will therefore be asked at the Meeting to approve an ordinary resolution that the number of directors be fixed at six for the ensuing year, subject to such increases as may be permitted by the Articles and the provisions of the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) (“BCBCA”). The Board recommends a vote “FOR” the approval of the resolution fixing the number of directors at six. In the absenceof contrary instructions, the Management proxy nominees named as proxyholders in the enclosed Form of Proxy will cast the votes representedby any proxy FOR the approval of the resolution fixing the number of directors at six.

ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

Each director of the Company is elected annually and holds office until the next annual general meeting of the Shareholders, or until his or her successor is elected or appointed, unless that person’s office is earlier vacated in accordance with the Articles or the provisions of the BCBCA.

Management has received written consent from each of Management’s nominees for election as a director as to their willingness and ability to serve as a director. The Company has adopted a majority voting policy where any nominee proposed for election as a director is required to tender their resignation if the director receives more withheld votes than for votes (i.e., a majority of withheld votes) at any meeting where Shareholders vote on the uncontested election of directors. An uncontested election means the number of director nominees for election is the same as the number of directors to be elected to the Board. The Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee (as defined below) will then submit a recommendation regarding whether or not to accept the resignation to the Board. Within 90 days of receiving the final voting results, the Board will issue a press release either announcing the resignation of the director or explaining the reasons justifying its decision not to accept the resignation. A director who tenders a resignation pursuant to this policy will not participate in any meeting of the Board or the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee at which the resignation is considered. No proposed director is being elected under any arrangement or understanding between the proposed director and any other person or company.

In the absence of contrary instructions, theManagement proxy nominees named as proxyholders in the enclosed Form of Proxy will cast the votes represented by any proxy FORthe election of the nominees named below.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

The Company’s corporate governance practices have been and continue to be in compliance with applicable Canadian requirements. The Company continues to monitor developments in Canada with a view to further revising its governance policies and practices, as appropriate.

The following is a description of the Company’s corporate governance practices which has been prepared by the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee and has been approved by the Board.

Board of Directors

In compliance with the requirements of the BCBCA, the directors are elected by the Shareholders to manage or supervise the management of the business and affairs of the Company. In exercising their powers and discharging their duties, the directors are required to act honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of the Company, and to exercise the care, diligence and skill that a reasonably prudent person would exercise in comparable circumstances.

The Board is responsible for approving long-term strategic plans and annual operating budgets recommended by Management. Board consideration and approval is also required for material contracts and business transactions, and all debt and equity financing transactions. Any responsibility which is not delegated to Management or to the committees of the Board (the “Committees”) remains with the Board. The Board meets and engages in discussions on a regular basis, as required by the state of the Company’s affairs, and also from time to time as deemed necessary to enable it to fulfill its responsibilities.

11

The Board believes that good corporate governance is important to the effective performance of the Company and plays a significant role in protecting Shareholders’ interests and maximizing value for the Shareholders. The Company has reviewed its own corporate governance practices in light of National Instrument 58-101 Disclosure of Corporate Governance Practices and National Policy 58-201 Corporate Governance Guidelines (“NP58-201”). The Board has adopted a written mandate for the Board which is attached hereto as Schedule “A” and is posted on the Company’s website at www.newpacificmetals.com. The Board is committed to sound corporate governance practices in the interest of its Shareholders and to effective and efficient decision making. The Company will continue to review and implement corporate governance guidelines as the business of the Company progresses.

Composition of the Board

NP 58-201 recommends that the board of directors of a reporting issuer be composed of a majority of independent directors. During the most recently completed financial year, the Company had a majority of independent directors. The following director nominees: Dickson Hall, Martin Wafforn, Maria Tang, Paul Simpson and Myles Gao are “independent” within the meaning of National Instrument 52-110 Audit Committees (“NI 52-110”). If elected, the proposed director nominee Jalen Yuan will not be considered independent as he is the CEO of the Company. The Company has taken steps to ensure that adequate structures and processes are in place to permit the Board to function independently of Management. The size of the Company is such that all the Company’s operations are conducted by a relatively small Management team which is also represented on the Board. Any director may submit items for inclusion in the agenda of matters to be discussed at a meeting of the Board. The Board considers that Management is effectively supervised by the independent directors on an informal basis, as the independent directors are actively and regularly involved in reviewing the operations of the Company and has regular and full access to Management.

Directorships

The Board nominees are directors of other reporting issuers as follows:

- Maria Tang is a director of Minco Silver Corporation and HempNova LifeTech Corp.
- Dickson Hall is a director of Arcland Resources Inc. and MEC Advisory Ltd.
--- ---
- Paul Simpson is a director of Silvercorp Metals Inc.
--- ---

The Board holds four regularly scheduled quarterly meetings throughout the year. Meetings are also conducted on an as-required basis to deal with matters as business developments warrant. The following table summarizes directors’ attendance at all Board and Committee meetings since the beginning of the Company’s most recently completed fiscal year ended June 30, 2025:

Director Board Meeting^(1)^ Audit Committee Meetings^(2)^ Compensation Committee Meeting Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee Meetings
Dickson Hall ^(1,2)^ 4 of 4 4 of 4 2 of 2 -

12

The Board has developed written position descriptions for the Chair of the Board, the CEO, and the chairs of each Committee.

Orientation and Education

Upon joining the Company, the Company provides new directors with an orientation program regarding the role of the Board, its Committees and its directors and the nature and operation of the Company’s business that includes providing to new directors’ copies of relevant financial documentation, information regarding its properties, as well as opportunities for meetings with Management. Board members are encouraged to communicate with the Management and auditor, to keep themselves current with industry trends and development, and to attend related industry seminars. Board members have full access to the Company’s records. The Company recognizes the importance of ongoing director education. To facilitate ongoing education of the Company’s directors, the Company supports training or education in areas relating to their role as a director of the Company and encourages presentations by outside experts to the Board or committees on matters of importance or emerging significance.

Ethical Business Conduct


The Board has adopted a written code of business conduct and ethics (the “Code”). A copy of the Code may be obtained by contacting the Company at the address on the cover of this Circular. Alternatively, a copy of the Code can be found under the Company’s profile on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca, with the SEC on EDGAR at www.sec.gov/edgar and on the Company’s website at www.newpacificmetals.com. The Board reviews compliance with the Code on an annual basis and is responsible for granting any waivers from the Code. The Company will promptly disclose any material waivers from the requirements of the Code granted to our directors or executive officers following the waiver. There have been no waivers to the Code since it was adopted.

When proposed transactions or agreements in which directors or officers may have an interest, material or not, are presented to the Board, the directors are required to disclose any such interest and the persons who have such an interest are excluded from all discussion on the matter and are not permitted to vote on the proposal. All such interests in transactions or agreements involving senior Management are dealt with by the Board, regardless of apparent immateriality.

Compensation Committee

The Compensation Committee is responsible for determining and approving compensation for directors and senior officers. Please see “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” for a description of the policies and practices adopted by the Board to determine such compensation. Fees payable to senior officers and directors have been determined using a number of factors, such as the nature and extent of the contributions by individual directors, and by direct comparison with other companies of similar size, complexity and risk profile. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025, the Compensation Committee was comprised of the following directors, all of whom are independent: Dickson Hall (Chair), Maria Tang and Myles Gao. All Compensation Committee members have direct experience that is relevant to their responsibilities in executive compensation. All Compensation Committee members have advised on compensation matters for several public companies and within the resource sector, enabling the Compensation Committee to make decisions on the suitability of the Company’s compensation policies and practices. The Board has adopted a charter for the Compensation Committee which sets out the responsibilities, powers and operations of such committee.

Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee

The Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee is responsible for assisting the Board in establishing and maintaining a sound system of corporate governance through a process of continuing assessment and enhancement. The Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee works to ensure that the Board functions independently of Management, that Management is clearly accountable to the Board, and that procedures are in place to monitor the effectiveness of the performance of the Board, the Committees and individual directors. The process by which the Board identifies new candidates is by keeping itself informed of potential candidates in the industry. Any Board

13

member may suggest a director nominee. The Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee will formally review and consider the background, expertise, qualifications and skill sets, to the needs of the Company and recommend nomination of the potential candidates to the Board.

During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025, the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee was comprised of the following independent directors: Paul Simpson (Chair), Martin Wafforn and Dr. Peter Megaw. The Board has adopted a charter for the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee which sets out the responsibilities, powers and operations of such committee.

Assessments

The Board and its committees, namely, the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee, the Compensation Committee, and the Audit Committee, monitor the adequacy of information given to directors, communications between the Board and management and the strategic direction and processes of the Board and its committees. The Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee annually, and at such other times as it deems fit, assesses the individual Board members and/or committees and reviews the corporate and Committee charters and conducts reviews of applicable corporate policies.

AUDIT COMMITTEE

The Audit Committee assists the Board in overseeing the integrity of the Company’s financial statements; the Company’s compliance with legal and regulatory requirements; the qualifications and independence of the Company’s independent auditor; and the performance of the independent auditor.

The Audit Committee currently consists of Maria Tang (Chair), Dickson Hall, and Paul Simpson. The directors of the Company have determined that all members of the Audit Committee are “independent” and “financially literate” for the purposes of applicable laws and the rules of the TSX and NYSE American. The directors of the Company have also determined that Maria Tang is an “Audit Committee Financial Expert” for the purposes of applicable laws and the rules of the TSX and NYSE American. The designation of a member of the Audit Committee as an “Audit Committee Financial Expert” does not make the member an “expert” for any purpose, impose any duties, obligations or liability on the member that are greater than those imposed on members of the Board who do not carry this designation or affect the duties, obligations or liability of any other member of the Audit Committee.

The Audit Committee operates under the guidelines of the charter of the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee, among other things, reviews the annual financial statements of the Company for recommendation to the Board, reviews and approves the quarterly financial statements, oversees the annual audit process, the Company’s internal accounting controls and the resolution of issues identified by the Company’s auditors, and recommends to the Board the firm of independent auditors to be nominated for appointment by the shareholders at the next annual general meeting. In addition, the Audit Committee meets annually with the Company’s auditors both with and without the presence of any members of the Company’s management. A description of responsibilities, powers and operation of the Audit Committee is included in the Company’s annual information form (“AIF”) dated September 15, 2025 under the heading “Audit Committee”, and a copy of the charter of the Audit Committee Charter is attached to the AIF. The AIF is available under the Company’s profile on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca, on EDGAR at www.sec.gov/edgar and on the Company’s website on www.newpacificmetals.com and upon request, the Company will promptly provide a copy of the AIF to any Shareholder.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

Executive Compensation

Set out below are particulars of compensation paid to the following persons (the “Named Executive Officers” or “NEOs”): (a) the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (the “CEO”); (b) the Company’s Chief Financial Officer (the

14

CFO”); (c) each of the Company’s three most highly compensated executive officers, or three most highly compensated individuals acting in a similar capacity, other than the CEO and CFO, at the end of the most recently completed financial year whose total compensation was, individually, more than $150,000 for that financial year; and (d) any additional individuals for whom disclosure would have been provided under (c) except that the individual was not serving as an executive officer of the company, nor acting in a similar capacity, at the end of the most recently completed financial year.

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

The Company’s executive compensation program is overseen by the Compensation Committee. See “Compensation Committee” for a description of the composition of the Compensation Committee. The objective of the Compensation Committee is to assist in attracting, retaining and motivating executives and key personnel in support of the Company’s goals. The Compensation Committee is responsible for making recommendations to the Board with respect to the compensation of executive officers of the Company as well as with respect to the Omnibus Plan, which was previously approved by the Company’s board of directors on October 24, 2023, and the shareholders on December 1, 2023 (“Omnibus Plan”). The Compensation Committee also assumes responsibility for reviewing and monitoring the long-term compensation strategy for senior Management.

The Compensation Committee attempts to ensure that the compensation packages for executive officers and the overall equity participation plan are in line with publicly listed mining and mineral exploration companies of a comparable size. The Compensation Committee refers to the GGA 2023 Global Mining Compensation Survey and takes reference of the median compensation figures of exploration companies in the survey as target for the NEOs. In addition, the Compensation Committee compares the NEOs’ compensation to a few comparable publicly traded mining companies of similar size in North America, as determined by market capitalization and complexity relative to the Company. Comparable companies include Bear Creek Mining Corporation, Kootenay Silver Inc., Avino Silver & Gold Mines Ltd., Abra Silver Resource Corp. and Vizsla Silver Corp. (the “CompensationPeer Group”). The Compensation Peer Group includes consists primarily of silver, gold or other precious metal producers with activity in at least one Latin American jurisdiction, as these characteristics are relevant to the Company’s operations. The Compensation Committee does not rely on any formula or objective criteria and analysis to determine an exact amount of compensation to pay. Compensation decisions are made through discussion by the Compensation Committee, with input from the CEO, with the final recommendations of the Compensation Committee being submitted to the Board for further discussion and final approval.

The following is a summary of the significant elements of compensation awarded to, earned by, paid to, or payable to NEOs for the most recently completed financial year:

Base Compensation

In the Compensation Committee’s view, paying base compensation that is competitive in the market in which the Company operates is a first step to attracting and retaining talented, qualified and effective executives. The Compensation Committee makes assessments by: (a) making reference to independent salary surveys, such as the GGA 2023 Global Mining Compensation Survey; (b) comparing salaries with that of other similar sized Canadian mining companies, including the Compensation Peer Group; (c) taking into account the potential amount and terms of share-based awards and performance bonuses, if any; and (d) taking into consideration of internal relativity, individual performance, and difficulty in finding a suitable replacement of the position.

Short Term Incentive Plan

The Company does not maintain any short-term incentive plans for its NEOs but does award performance bonuses from time to time, as discussed below.

15

Share-based Awards

The Company believes that encouraging its executive officers and employees to become Shareholders is one of the best ways of aligning their interests with those of its Shareholders. Equity participation is accomplished through the Omnibus Plan. The Compensation Committee oversees the administration of the Omnibus Plan. The Omnibus Plan is designed to give eligible directors, officers, employees and consultants of the Company, or its subsidiaries, an interest in preserving and maximizing shareholder value in the longer term, to enable the Company to attract and retain individuals with experience and ability, and to provide a sense of company ownership to the individual. The Compensation Committee considers share-based awards, including grants of Options and RSUs when reviewing executive officer compensation packages as a whole.

The distribution of share-based awards, including Options and RSUs (each as defined below), is recommended by the Compensation Committee. The number of Options and RSUs recommended for each individual is based upon seniority, responsibilities of the job position, and the performance of the Company. The Compensation Committee’s recommendation to the Board includes the number of Options and RSUs to be granted to the independent directors.

The NEOs are granted Options and/or RSUs commensurate with those offered by other companies in our industry, with consideration also given to internal relativity and individual performance. Options and/or RSUs are granted to executive officers taking into account a number of factors, including the amount and terms of Options and/or RSUs previously granted, base compensation, performance bonuses, if any, and competitive factors.

During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025, the Board granted eligible participants 1,139,333 RSUs representing 0.66% of the outstanding Common Shares and 1,810,333 options were granted, representing 0.11% of the outstanding Common Shares.

Performance Bonuses

The NEOs are paid performance bonuses commensurate with those offered by other companies in our industry, with consideration also given to Company performance, individual performance, share-based awards and base compensation and internal relativity. Considerations for NEOs performance bonus awards paid out during the fiscal year 2024 were based primarily on two aspects: (1) NEOs’ personal performance; and (2) Company performance, including but not limited to, the completion of the pre-feasibility study for the Silver Sand Project, the completion of the preliminary economic assessment for the Carangas Project, and optimizing corporate budget. The consideration and payment of any performance bonus is at the sole discretion of the Board.

Risk Considerations

The Compensation Committee considered the implications of the risks associated with the Company’s compensation policies and practices and concluded that, given the nature of the Company’s business and the role of the Compensation Committee in overseeing the Company’s executive compensation practices and the risks associated with the same, the compensation policies and practices do not serve to encourage any NEO or individual at a principal business unit or division to take inappropriate or excessive risks, and no risks were identified arising from the Company’s compensation policies and practices that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company.

The Board also has the ability to set out vesting periods in respect of the share-based awards granted. As the benefits of such compensation, if any, are not realized by officers and directors until a period of time has passed, the ability of officers to take inappropriate or excessive risks that are beneficial to their compensation at the expense of the Company and the Shareholders is thereby limited. Furthermore, all elements of executive compensation are discretionary. As a result, it is unlikely an officer would take inappropriate or excessive risks at the expense of the Company or the Shareholders that would be beneficial to their short-term compensation when their long-term compensation might be put at risk from their actions. Risks, if any, may be identified and mitigated through regular Board meetings during which financial and other information of the Company is reviewed. No risks have been identified arising from the

16

Company’s compensation policies and practices that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company.

No NEOs or directors are permitted to purchase financial instruments including prepaid variable forward contracts, equity swaps, collars, units of exchange funds or like instruments, that are designed to hedge or offset a decrease in market value of equity securities of the Company granted as compensation or held, directly or indirectly, by NEOs or directors as compensation.

No new actions, decisions or policies were made after the end of the most recently completed financial year that could affect a reasonable person’s understanding of an NEO’s compensation for the year ended June 30, 2024.

Performance Graph

The following chart compares the total cumulative Shareholder return for CDN$100 invested in Common Shares on June 30, 2019, with the cumulative total return of the S&P/TSX Composite Index for the period from June 30, 2019 to June 30, 2025. The Common Share performance as set out in the graph does not necessarily indicate future price performance. The Company has never paid dividends to its Shareholders. The Company does take into account overall share price performance in determining executive compensation amounts; however, share price performance is just one of the many factors, as discussed above, that the Company takes into consideration. There is not a direct correlation between the Company’s share price performance and the amount of compensation paid to NEOs. The trend in overall compensation paid to the Company’s NEOs over the period has not specifically tracked the performance of the market price of the Company’s common shares, or the S&P/TSX Composite Index.

Option Repricing

There are no Options held by the NEOs that have been repriced.

Termination and Change of Control Benefits

Other than as disclosed herein, the Company does not have any contract, agreement, plan or arrangement that provides for payments to an NEO at, following or in connection with any termination (whether voluntary, involuntary or constructive), resignation, retirement, a change in control of the Company or a change in an NEO’s responsibilities. There are no deferred compensation plans.

The change of control agreements deem a “Change of Control” to occur, inter alia, if: (i) a merger, amalgamation, arrangement, consolidation, reorganization or transfer takes place in which equity securities of the Company possessing more than 50% of the total combined voting power of the Company’s outstanding equity securities are acquired by a person or persons different from the persons holding those equity securities immediately prior to such transaction, and the composition of the Board following such transaction is such that the directors of the Company prior to the transaction constitute less than 50% of the Board membership following the transaction, except that no Change of Control will be deemed to occur if such merger, amalgamation, arrangement, consolidation, reorganization or transfer is with any subsidiary or subsidiaries of the Company; (ii) the purchase or acquisition of voting shares of the Company and/or securities convertible into voting shares or carrying the right to acquire voting shares of the Company (“Convertible Securities”), which results in an entity, person or group of entities, or persons acting jointly or in concert (“Holder”) beneficially owning or exercising control or direction over voting shares of the Company and/or Convertible Securities such that, assuming the conversion of the Convertible Securities beneficially owned by such Holder, such Holder would have the right to cast more than 50% of the votes attached to all voting shares of the Company at a meeting of shareholders; (iii) any person, or any combination of persons acting jointly or in concert by

21

virtue of an agreement, arrangement, commitment or understanding shall acquire or hold, directly or indirectly, the right to appoint a majority of the directors of the Company; or (iv) the Company sells, transfers or otherwise disposes of all or substantially all of its assets, except that no Change of Control will be deemed to occur if such sale or disposition is made to a subsidiary or subsidiaries of the Company.

Jalen Yuan

In the event of change of control and if the employee is terminated at any time within 13-month period beginning one month before the date of a change of control, the employee will be entitled to a lump sum payment equal to 12 months’ base salary, plus any other salary, bonus or benefits which have been accrued or earned.

Alex Zhang

In the event of change of control and if the employee is terminated at any time within 13-month period beginning one month before the date of a change of control, the employee will be entitled to a lump sum payment equal to 12 months’ base salary, plus any other salary, bonus or benefits which have been accrued or earned.

Carolina Ordonez

In the event of change of control and if the employee is terminated at any time within 13-month period beginning one month before the date of a change of control, the employee will be entitled to a lump sum payment equal to 12 months’ base salary, plus any other salary, bonus or benefits which have been accrued or earned.

Quantified Impact of Termination and Change ofControl Provisions

If a Change of Control of the Company had occurred on June 30, 2025, the total estimated cash cost to the Company of related payments to the below NEOs (which includes the accelerated option-based award value and share-based award value) is estimated at $2,503,335. The following table shows estimated incremental payments triggered pursuant to termination of employment of an NEO in accordance with the termination provisions described above:

Name Termination Without Cause Under<br><br> <br>Agreement Provision Value (CAD) ^(1)(2)(3)^ Change of Control Provision Value (CAD) ^(1)(2)(3)^
Jalen Yuan - 674,566
Alex Zhang - 611,020
Carolina Ordonez 110,000 307,566

Notes:

(1) The termination values assume that the triggering event took place on the last business day of the Company’s<br>financial year-end (June 30, 2025).
(2) The accelerated option-based award value on the last business day of the Company’s year-end (June<br>30, 2025) was calculated based on the difference between the value of the Options that would have vested and the closing price of the<br>Common Shares on the TSX on June 30, 2025, of CAD$1.84.
--- ---
(3) Value of earned/unused vacation and amounts owing for expense reimbursement are not included as they are<br>not considered “incremental” payments made in connection with termination of employment.

No new actions, decisions, or policies were made after the end of the last financial year to affect a reader’s understanding of an NEO’s compensation for the year ended June 30, 2025.

(1) Disclosure about compensation payable to Andrew Williams in his capacity as a Director of the Company<br>has already been disclosed above under the heading “Summary Compensation Table”.
(2) On January 19, 2023, January 24, 2023, April 14, 2023, January 16, 2024 and February 12, 2025, the Company<br>awarded RSUs that vest over a three-year period at a value of CAD$3.42, CAD$3.67, CAD$3.92, CAD$2.10, and CAD$1.58 per unit, respectively.<br>The fair value of RSUs is determined by the grant date closing price of the Common Share on TSX.
--- ---
(3) The Company has adopted IFRS 2 – Share-based Payment to account for the issuance of Options to employees<br>and non-employees. The fair value of Options is estimated at the grant date using the industry standard Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model<br>which requires the input of a number of assumptions. The assumptions used reflect Management’s best estimates, but involve inherent<br>uncertainties based on market conditions outside of the control of the Company. The following table summarizes the key assumptions used<br>to calculate the fair value of each set of Options granted to directors, who are not NEOs, during the financial year ended June 30, 2025:
