Although all of the nominated directors received the support of more than 50% of votes cast at the meeting, the Teck Board has taken note of the significant number of votes cast by holders of Class B Subordinate Voting Shares that were withheld in connection with the election of Mr. Quan Chong. The Board understands that major proxy advisory services recommended that votes be withheld in respect of


Mr. Chong’s election to the Board on the grounds of his attendance at Board and Committee meetings in 2019. Although not required to do so under Teck’s Majority Voting Policy, Mr. Chong has tendered his resignation, in light of the voting results of the meeting. The Board has considered the matter and has determined not to accept Mr. Chong’s resignation. The Board has considered, among other things, the fact that Mr. Chong’s 2019 attendance was adversely affected for medical reasons. The Board also considers Mr. Chong’s specific skills, including his insight into China’s economy and political landscape unique among members of the Board and, therefore, of significant benefit.

Detailed voting results for the meeting are available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.
