Insights
Teck’s 2026 meeting centers on governance continuity and a transformative copper-focused merger.
Teck Resources Limited is using its 2026 annual meeting to reaffirm core governance items—director elections, auditor re‑appointment, and advisory say‑on‑pay—while framing these decisions in the context of its proposed merger of equals with Anglo American plc.
The circular describes Anglo Teck plc as expected to rank among the world’s top five copper producers with more than 70% exposure to copper, aligning strategy with anticipated long‑term demand from AI, data centers, electrification, and the energy transition. In 2025, Teck returned $1.3 billion to shareholders through share buybacks and dividends, supporting a disciplined capital allocation narrative.
From a governance perspective, the board emphasizes majority voting, an independent chair, 100% independent board committees, robust audit oversight, and strong support for executive compensation policies, including a 2025 say‑on‑pay approval of 98.46%. Future filings around the closing of the merger and resulting board transitions at Anglo Teck plc will provide additional clarity on the combined entity’s long‑term governance and capital return approach.

Management Proxy Circular
Annual Meeting of Teck Resources Limited
to be held on April 23, 2026

Dear Shareholders:
On behalf of our board of directors and management, we are pleased to invite you to attend the annual meeting of shareholders of Teck Resources Limited on Thursday, April 23, 2026.
2025 was a defining year for Teck and positioned us to deliver significant long-term value for our shareholders and all stakeholders. We advanced our copper-focused strategy through the announcement of our proposed merger of equals with Anglo American plc, sanctioned the mine life extension of Highland Valley Copper Operations, and improved operational reliability at Quebrada Blanca Operations.
Anglo Teck plc will rank among the world’s top five copper producers, with more than 70% exposure to copper and a robust pipeline of growth opportunities. With long-term global demand for copper and other critical minerals expected to be driven by growth in AI, data centers, electrification and the energy transition, the proposed merger puts Teck and our shareholders in the best position to create long-term value. I want to thank our shareholders for their confidence and support.
In 2025, we also remained focused on disciplined capital allocation, balancing returns to shareholders with growth in copper, while maintaining our strong balance sheet. We returned a total of $1.3 billion to shareholders through more than $1.0 billion in share buybacks and $246 million in dividends.
The progress made in 2025 has positioned us for a strong future, providing lasting benefits for shareholders while responsibly producing the metals that matter for our customers. The opportunities ahead in 2026 are extraordinary as we advance the creation of Anglo Teck plc, positioning ourselves as a global critical minerals champion at a time when demand for the critical minerals we produce is accelerating.
Further details about the business of the meeting are contained in the management information circular that follows. Please review and consider the information in the circular and ensure that you vote. Detailed instructions for how to submit your proxy or voting instructions or attend the meeting in person or virtually are on page 4 of the circular.

INFORMATION ABOUT THE BUSINESS OF THE MEETING
At the Annual Meeting of shareholders of Teck Resources Limited (“Teck”) to be held on April 23, 2026 (including any postponement(s) or adjournment(s) thereof, the “Meeting”), shareholders of Teck (“Shareholders”) will be asked to consider and, if applicable, vote on the following items of business:
Receipt of Financial Statements
We will present Teck’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025, together with the auditor’s report thereon. The financial statements are contained in our 2025 Annual Report (the “Annual Report”), which is available on Teck’s website at www.teck.com/reports and under Teck’s profile on www.SEDAR+plus.ca and www.sec.gov/edgar.
Election of Directors
Eleven directors will be elected to serve on Teck’s board of directors (the “Board”) until the close of the next annual meeting or until their successors are elected or appointed. See “Election of Directors” for information about each of the nominated directors. On the closing of the proposed Merger with Anglo American plc, it is expected that the directors of Teck Resources Limited will be replaced and six of the current directors will be appointed to the board of Anglo Teck plc.
| The Board recommends that you vote FOR each nominated director |
Appointment of Auditor
The Board recommends the re-appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as Teck’s auditor, with its remuneration to be set by the Board. For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, we paid the external auditor fees as detailed below:
|
|
Year Ended 2025 ($000) |
Year Ended 2024 ($000) |
| Audit Services(1) | 6,526 | 7,955 |
| Audit-Related Services(2) | 2,428 | 2,638 |
| Tax Fees(3) | 542 | 466 |
| All Other Fees(4) | 11 | 6 |
| (1) | Includes services that are provided by Teck’s external auditors in connection with the audit of the financial statements and internal controls over financial reporting. |
| (2) | Includes assurance and related services that are related to the performance of the audit, greenhouse gas verification and sustainability assurance, regulatory filing consent engagements, due diligence engagements, and pension plan and special purpose audits. |
| (3) | Fees are for tax compliance and advisory services. |
| (4) | Fees are for subscriptions to online accounting guidance and publications. |
The independence of the external auditor is monitored by the Audit Committee as part of a robust governance framework, which includes requirements for rotation of the lead audit partner and the auditor’s own internal independence procedures. The lead audit partner was last rotated in 2023 and has been rotated again in 2026. The Audit Committee has confirmed that it is satisfied that PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP is independent within the meaning of applicable securities laws.
In addition to annually reviewing the independence status of the external auditor, the Audit Committee annually reviews and evaluates the external auditor’s performance prior to recommending reappointment to shareholders. This review was completed in February 2025, with the Audit Committee confirming that it is satisfied with the auditor’s performance and independence in 2025. In 2024, the Audit Committee completed an additional review on considerations related to auditor tenure, the process for audit tenders and related change of auditor requirements, and potential risks and benefits of conducting a tender process. The Audit Committee considered the risks and benefits of having a long tenured auditor and the controls and processes that are in place to ensure auditor independence. They also considered the necessity of having continuity of knowledge in order to ensure high-quality audit standards provided by an audit firm with the required depth and breadth of experience to effectively and efficiently audit an entity of Teck’s size with complex operations in multiple jurisdictions. Following this review, the Audit Committee determined not to conduct a tender process for its external auditor at this time, balancing considerations related to audit quality and auditor independence in the context of the current regulatory environment for Canadian reporting issuers who are also subject to Sarbanes-Oxley Act requirements. The Audit Committee expects to revisit this review periodically in addition to conducting a more comprehensive review of the external auditor on a more regular basis.
| The Board recommends that you vote FOR PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP |
Advisory Resolution on Executive Compensation
To provide Shareholders with an opportunity to have a “say on pay”, Teck has held a vote on a non-binding advisory resolution on our approach to executive compensation since 2011. The Compensation & Talent Committee (the “Compensation Committee”) and the Board consider the outcome of the vote as part of their ongoing review of executive compensation.
| 1 |
At the Meeting, Shareholders will vote on the following resolution:
“Resolved, on an advisory basis and not to diminish the role and responsibilities of the Board, that the shareholders accept the approach to executive compensation disclosed in Teck Resources Limited’s management proxy circular delivered in connection with the 2026 Annual Meeting of shareholders.”
The results of Teck’s “say on pay” vote at the previous three annual meetings are set out below:
| Year | Percentage of overall votes in favour |
Percentage of Class B Subordinate Voting Shares voted in favour |
| 2025 | 98.46% | 96.04% |
| 2024 | 98.39% | 95.91% |
| 2023 | 98.10% | 95.22% |
Teck’s executive compensation programs are focused on paying for performance and alignment with the shareholder experience. Our executive compensation programs are designed to meet the following objectives:
| • | attract, motivate, and retain highly qualified and experienced executives; |
| • | reward executives for managing the business consistent with our short and long-term operational objectives, to enable long-term shareholder value creation; |
| • | align compensation with performance over both the short- and long-term horizons; |
| • | ensure that a significant proportion of compensation is directly linked to the success of Teck, while not encouraging excessive or inappropriate risk-taking; |
| • | promote adherence to the high standards and values reflected in our Code of Ethics, Code of Sustainable Conduct, and policies concerning safety and environmental stewardship; and |
| • | protect long-term shareholder interests by ensuring named executive officers (each, an “NEO”) and other senior executive interests are aligned with those of shareholders. |
Teck operates in a highly cyclical, capital-intensive industry with a long-term view to building value for our shareholders through the commodity cycle. Teck aims for a market-competitive compensation structure that will attract, motivate and retain highly qualified executives to lead Teck and create long-term value for our shareholders.
Our share price performance is strongly influenced by changes in commodity prices, regardless of the operating performance of our business, so our incentive programs focus on financial, operational, strategic and sustainability performance. The Board is committed to paying for performance and providing strong alignment with shareholder experience through:
| • | striking an appropriate balance between fixed and variable compensation, with 85% of CEO and an average of 76% of other NEO compensation at risk in 2025; |
| • | an annual incentive program that incentivizes annual financial, operational, sustainability, and health and safety performance in addition to achievement of key annual strategic objectives; |
| • | benchmarking against a comparator group of issuers with whom we compete for talent, targeting compensation at market median; and |
| • | emphasis on equity-linked long-term incentives, including 50% performance-contingent share units that pay out from 0-200% of target, depending on performance against multiple metrics, including relative performance, financial, strategic and sustainability-linked goals. |
Long term realizable pay outcomes reflect these goals. See “Executive Compensation” for detailed information on our executive compensation program, including details of the components, objectives, and administration of the program and compensation outcomes for 2025.

The Board recommends that you vote FOR the advisory resolution to accept our approach to executive compensation

Circular
This Circular is delivered in connection with the solicitation of proxies by and on behalf of the management of Teck for use at the Meeting. We have not authorized any person to give any information or to make any representation in connection with the business of the Meeting other than those contained in this Circular. If any such information or representation is given or made to you, you should not rely upon it as having been authorized or being accurate.
This Circular does not constitute an offer to buy, or a solicitation of an offer to sell, any securities, or the solicitation of a proxy, by any person in any jurisdiction in which such an offer or solicitation is not authorized or in which the person making such an offer or solicitation is not qualified to do so, or to any person to whom it is unlawful to make such an offer or solicitation. Shareholders should not construe the contents of this Circular as legal, tax or financial advice and should consult with their own legal, tax, financial or other advisors.
Notice to Shareholders in the United States
The solicitation of proxies in connection with the Meeting described in this Circular involves securities of a Canadian corporation and is being effected in accordance with Canadian corporate and securities laws, including disclosure requirements. Shareholders in the United States should be aware that these requirements may be different from those under United States corporate and securities laws relating to U.S. corporations. The enforcement by Shareholders of civil liabilities under U.S. securities laws may be affected adversely by the fact that Teck is organized under the laws of Canada, that some of its directors and officers are not residents of the United States, and a substantial portion of its assets may be located outside of the United States. Shareholders may not be able to sue Teck or its directors and officers in a Canadian court for violations of U.S. securities laws. It may be difficult to compel a Canadian company and its affiliates to subject themselves to a judgment by a U.S. court.

| • | other statements that are not historical facts |
Although we believe that these forward-looking statements are based on information and assumptions that are reasonable and complete, inherent in forward-looking statements are risks and uncertainties beyond our ability to predict or control, which may cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements contained, including, but not limited to the risks described in detail in Teck’s most recent annual information form available under Teck’s profile at www.sedarplus.ca. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements.
Forward-looking statements in this Circular and in the documents incorporated by reference herein are based on a number of assumptions that Teck believed were reasonable on the day it made the forward-looking statement, including, but not limited to, assumptions regarding:
| • | general business and economic conditions, including interest rates, inflation, commodity and power prices, credit and financial market conditions and the impact of foreign exchange rates and tax rates and related frameworks |

| • | availability of qualified employees and contractors and our ability to attract and retain skilled employees |
| • | satisfactory negotiation of collective agreements with unionized employees |
| • | benefits of technology for our operations and development projects |
| • | costs of closure, reclamation, and environmental compliance generally, of our operations and projects |
| • | accuracy of our mineral reserve and resource estimates and the geological, operational, and price assumptions they are based on; |
| • | outcome of commodity price, volume, treatment and refining charge negotiations with customers |
| • | financial or physical impacts of climate change and climate change initiatives on markets, our operations, and projects |
| • | impact of geopolitical events on our operations and projects and on global markets |
| • | our ongoing relations with regulators, communities, and our business and joint venture partners |
Our sustainability goals and strategies are based on a number of assumptions, including regarding the availability and effectiveness of technologies needed to achieve our goals; the availability of clean energy sources and zero-emissions alternatives for transportation on reasonable terms; our ability to implement new source control or mine design strategies on commercially reasonable terms without impacting production; and the performance of new technologies in accordance with our expectations.

We caution you that the foregoing list of important factors and assumptions is not exhaustive. If our assumptions turn out to be inaccurate, our actual results could be materially different from what we expect. Other events or circumstances could cause our actual results to differ materially from those estimated or projected and expressed in, or implied by, our forward-looking statements. You should also carefully consider the matters discussed in the “Cautionary Statement on Forward-Looking Statements” section of our Management’s Discussion and Analysis for the year ended December 31, 2025, and subsequent filings, which can be found under Teck’s profile on SEDAR+ (www.sedarplus.ca) and on EDGAR (www.sec.gov). Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update publicly or otherwise revise any forward-looking statements or the foregoing list of factors, whether as a result of new information or future events or otherwise.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Ratios
The “Executive Summary” and “Executive Compensation” sections of this Circular contain references to certain non-GAAP financial measures and non-GAAP ratios which do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by International Financial Reporting Standards and may not be comparable to similar financial measures and ratios reported by other issuers. This includes references to “adjusted EBITDA”, “EBITDA” and “Adjusted profit from continuing operations attributable to shareholders”. These financial measures and ratios have been derived from Teck’s financial statements and applied on a consistent basis as appropriate. We disclose these financial measures and ratios because we believe they assist readers in understanding the results of Teck’s operations and financial position and provide further information about financial results to investors in the context of Teck’s executive compensation practices.
These measures should not be considered in isolation or used in substitution for other measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. Additional information on the non-GAAP financial measures and non-GAAP ratios, including a reconciliation of Teck’s 2025 EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA results and Adjusted profit from continuing operations attributable to shareholders, are available in Teck’s management discussion & analysis for the year-ended December 31, 2025, available on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca or at www.Teck.com/reports.

Notes to Director Profiles:
| (1) | Share and share unit holdings are as at the record date valued at the closing price of the Class B Subordinate Voting Shares ($65.71) on the TSX on December 31, 2025. DSUs (as defined below) granted to non-executive directors vest on the grant date. Values as at December 31, 2025 are calculated as the notional value of share unit awards, assuming full vesting, based on the closing price for Class B Subordinate Voting Shares on the TSX as at December 31, 2025. For the purposes of Mr. Price’s PSUs (as defined below) the value has been calculated assuming a performance factor of 100%. |
| (2) | The Board considers as independent a Director who is: (a) not a member of management; (b) free of any interest and any business, family or other relationship which could reasonably be perceived to interfere with the director’s ability to act with a view to the best interests of Teck other than interests and relationships arising solely from holdings in Teck, and (c) not considered to have a direct or indirect material relationship with Teck under subsection 1.4 of National Instrument 52-110 – Audit Committees. |
| (3) | Mr. Gowans was a director of Gedex Systems Inc. ("Gedex"), a company based in Mississauga, Ontario. On August 9, 2019, Gedex filed a notice of application in the Ontario Superior Court of Justice (the "Court") under the Companies' Creditors Arrangement Act (the "CCAA") requesting an order approving a sale and investor solicitation process ("SISP") in respect of the property, assets and undertakings of Gedex. On August 12, 2019, the Court made an order authorizing and approving, among other things, the commencement of the SISP, a stay of proceedings until September 11, 2019, granting Gedex protection from its creditors pursuant to the CCAA and appointing Zeifman Partners Inc. as monitor in the proceedings. On December 5, 2019, the Court certified that all matters to be attended to in connection with the CCAA proceedings had been completed and a discharge notice was filed on December 23, 2019, terminating the CCAA proceedings. |
| (4) | Mr. Keevil has a family relationship with N.B. Keevil, the former Chairman of Teck. |
| (5) | Mr. Price is an officer of Teck and holds stock options RSUs, and PSUs and is eligible for PDSUs (defined below). See Appendix A for plan details. |

INFORMATION ABOUT Director Compensation
| The main objective of our director compensation program is to attract and retain directors with a broad range of relevant skills and knowledge and the ability to carry out the Board’s mandate successfully. Directors are required to devote significant time and energy to performing their duties, including preparing for and attending Board and committee meetings and ensuring that they stay informed about our business and the global mining industry. The Board believes that we must offer a competitive compensation package to attract and retain directors who meet these expectations. |
We pay director compensation each year consisting of cash fees and a share-based award of either deferred share units (“DSUs”) or restricted share units (“RSUs”). We do not issue stock options to non-executive directors and do not pay meeting fees, other than in respect of certain ad hoc committee work as described below. Mr. Price does not receive any additional compensation for acting as a director and his compensation is fully reflected in the section “Executive Compensation”.
We require directors to maintain minimum holdings of Teck shares or share units. See “Mandatory Shareholdings for Directors” on page 17 for more details. The Board believes that share ownership requirements and a mix of equity-linked compensation promote the objectives of director retention and alignment with the interests of long-term shareholders.
Determining Director Compensation
The Compensation Committee is responsible for recommending compensation policies to the Board and reviews director compensation annually, benchmarked against Teck’s compensation peer group. In 2025, based on the results of the annual benchmarking review performed by the Compensation Committee’s independent consultant, Meridian Compensation Partners (“Meridian”), the Compensation Committee recommended a modest increase to the fees payable to non-executive directors other than the Chair and Vice Chair and a slight increase in the fees payable to the Chairs of the standing Board committees other than the Audit Committee, to bring director compensation into alignment with the median director compensation for the peer group as disclosed in 2024.
The Board may from time to time approve ad hoc committees of the Board and establish meeting fees to compensate directors for extra time spent on Teck matters. There was no additional director compensation approved or paid in 2025.
Compensation Components
Annual Retainer and Committee Fees
Teck pays annual retainers and committee fees to directors as follows:
| Component | Fee | |||
| Cash Retainer | ||||
| Chair | $ | 275,000 | ||
| Vice Chair | $ | 180,000 | ||
| Non-executive Director (excluding Chair and Vice Chair) | $ | 135,000 | ||
| Committee Chair – Audit(1) | $ | 20,000 | ||
| Committee Chair – Compensation(1) | $ | 15,000 | ||
| Other Committee Chair(1) | $ | 10,000 | ||
| Committee Member | $ | 10,000 | ||
| Share-Based Retainer | ||||
| Non-executive Director | $ | 155,000 | ||
| Chair | $ | 275,000 | ||
| Vice Chair | $ | 165,000 | ||
| Additional Fees | ||||
| Travel Fee(2) | $ | 1,000 | ||
| (1) | Committee Chairs receive Committee Chair fees in addition to Committee Member fees. |
| (2) | Directors travelling from outside British Columbia the day prior to Board or Committee meetings to attend those meetings. |
Directors are also reimbursed for out-of-pocket expenses and travel costs related their work on behalf of Teck.
Share-Based Awards
The share-based component of director compensation is payable in either DSUs or RSUs. Until directors have met the mandatory minimum shareholding requirement, all compensation other than travel fees and reimbursement for out-of-pocket costs must be taken in the form of DSUs. Non-executive directors who have met the mandatory minimum shareholding requirement may elect on an annual basis to receive some or all of their annual cash retainer in DSUs, which are issued and priced at the end of each quarter and may also elect to receive all or a portion of their annual equity grant as RSUs, which are issued and priced on May 1 each year.
DSUs and RSUs are notional shares with the same value at any given time as the Class B Subordinate Voting Shares but are non-dilutive and do not entitle the participant to any voting or other shareholder rights. Dividend equivalents are credited to a participant’s DSU or RSU account in the form of additional DSUs or RSUs. RSUs pay out within three years of grant, while DSUs do not pay out until a director ceases to hold office. See Appendix A “Equity Incentive Plans” for additional details on the terms of the RSU and DSU plans and awards.
| 15 |
On May 1, 2025, non-executive directors other than the Chair and Vice Chair each received 3,360 share units. The Board Chair received 5,962 share units and the Vice Chair received 3,577 share units. Those grants had a grant date value of $46.1112 per share unit, based on the volume weighted average price (“VWAP”) of the Class B Subordinate Voting Shares on the TSX for the 20 consecutive trading days prior to the grant date, equal to a target dollar value of approximately $155,000 for non-executive directors, $275,000 for the Board Chair, and $165,000 for the Vice Chair.

Mandatory Shareholdings for Directors
Non-executive directors are required to own shares or share units equivalent in value to at least three times their total annual cash and share-based retainer, with new directors having five years to reach the mandatory minimum. For the purposes of the policy, the value of share units is determined by using the closing price of the Class B Subordinate Voting Shares on the TSX on December 31, 2025. On that date, all non-executive directors subject to the shareholding requirement had met the requirement or were on track to do so within the time limit. Directors may also meet the mandatory minimum based on grant date value of their DSUs and RSUs.
The following table shows the number of shares and share units held by each non-executive director nominee as at December 31, 2025 compared to the prior year, the value of their holdings as of that date, and the value required to meet the shareholding requirement.

INFORMATION ABOUT CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
| Teck’s Board and management are committed to leadership in corporate governance. As a Canadian reporting issuer with securities listed on the TSX, we have a system of corporate governance practices in place that meets or exceeds all applicable Canadian requirements. In recent years, we continued to refine our approach to governance, including implementing a six-year sunset on our dual class share structure in 2023. The Board also adopted a new Enterprise Strategy and Enterprise Risk Management Policy and has continued to advance long-term succession planning for Board and management. |
Although Teck is a “foreign private issuer” for purposes of its NYSE listing and is therefore not subject to the NYSE corporate governance standards, the Board has determined that at least a majority of its directors must satisfy the director independence requirements under those standards. The Corporate Governance & Nominating Committee (the “Governance Committee”) has further determined that Teck’s corporate governance practices do not differ in any material way from those followed by NYSE listed U.S. domestic issuers, with any differences being a matter of form rather than substance.
Committee Reports
The Board has five standing committees, being the Audit Committee, Governance Committee, the Compensation Committee, the Safety, Operations & Projects Committee, and the Sustainability Committee. The five standing committees hold regularly scheduled meetings throughout the year. The Board may also constitute informal sub-committees of the Board from time to time on an ad hoc basis to review certain matters in further detail, as it considers appropriate. There are currently no ad hoc Board Committees.
An in camera session is held at each meeting for the independent members of the Board and committees to meet without management present. Each committee has the authority to engage external advisors or consultants as they may deem necessary to assist them in carrying out their duties and to approve the related contracts and fees.
Teck’s standing committees are composed of 100% independent directors. The Chair, Vice Chair, and CEO generally attend all committee meetings, where possible and as appropriate.
The reports below describe each standing committee’s key responsibilities, members, and activities in 2025. Membership is as at December 31, 2025. Each of the standing committees has a charter that describes its functions in more detail and is available on our website at www.teck.com/about/governance.

Governance Highlights
The following table contains a summary of certain of Teck’s governance practices and policies. Further information on certain of these topics can be found later in this Circular where indicated.
|
Governance Topics |
Our Practice |
| Dual Class Share Structure | The Board pays special attention to maintaining governance practices appropriate for a corporation with a dual class share structure to ensure that the interests of all shareholders are considered and respected. |
| Read more about our Dual Class Share Structure Governance on page 27 | |
| Director Independence | A majority of directors are independent, and, if all nominated directors are elected, two of 11 (18%) will not be independent. Our committees are composed of 100% independent directors. |
| Meetings of Independent Directors | The Board has a policy that the non-executive directors will meet without management present and the independent directors will meet without non-independent directors present at each Board meeting held. |
| Independent Chair | Teck has had an independent Chair of the Board since 2018. Sheila Murray, an independent director, has served as Chair of the Board since February 2020. |
| Read more about Director Independence on page 26 | |
| Position Descriptions | A position description for the Independent Chair of the Board has been approved by the Board and sets out the Chair’s responsibilities, including: | |
| • | chairing meetings and facilitating frank and open discussions | |
| • | providing ethical and independent leadership to enable the Board to effectively function with integrity | |
| • | advising and assisting the Board and management in the development and execution of strategy | |
| The Board has also adopted position descriptions for the Committee Chairs. | |
| The Position Description for the Independent Chair of the Board and other governance related documents are available on Teck’s website at www.teck.com/about/governance | |
| CEO Position Description | A position description for the CEO has been approved by the Board. The CEO reports to the Board, has general supervision and control over the business and affairs of Teck, and is expected to (among other things): | |
| • | foster a corporate culture that promotes ethical practices, encourages individual integrity, and fulfills social responsibility | |
| • | develop and recommend to the Board a long-term strategy and vision for Teck that leads to creation of shareholder value and develop and recommend to the Board annual business plans and budgets to support achievement of that Teck’s long-term strategy | |
| • | consistently strive to achieve Teck’s financial and operating goals and corporate objectives | |
|
Director Nominations |
The Governance Committee is responsible for recruiting and proposing new director nominees and does the following on an ongoing basis: | |
| • | consults with the Board to identify the mix of skills, expertise and qualities required for directors and assess additional attributes required to maintain an appropriate mix on the Board, including diversity considerations | |
| • | identifies impending Board vacancies to allow appropriate time for recruitment | |
| • | develops a short-list of candidates and arranges meetings with the Governance Committee, Board Chair, CEO, and other Board members as may be appropriate | |
| • | ensures proposed nominees are prepared to take on the level of commitment expected of Teck directors | |
| • | recommends proposed nominees to the Board | |
|
Board Renewal and Term Limit |
The Board believes that effective Director renewal has taken place, with the nominated Directors having an average tenure of 7.0 years (4.9 years for independent directors) and, assuming election of all nominees, 7 of 11 having joined the Board in the last 5 years.
The Board has adopted a term limit of 15 years for independent directors. Information regarding each current director’s latest expected retirement date is included with their biographies beginning on page 8. There has been no waiver of the term limit policy since adoption.
The Board will continue to place emphasis on rigorous evaluation of all directors, regardless of the term limit, and believes that a balance between long tenure, familiarity with Teck’s business, long-term perspective on the industry, and fresh perspective is essential for effective governance. |
|
| Read more about Board Renewal on page 28 | ||
| Majority Voting | Teck is governed by the CBCA, which has prescriptive rules that apply to director elections, including majority voting and individual election requirements. These rules require that, in an uncontested election, shareholders be given the ability to vote “for” or “against” each director and that a director will only be elected if a majority of the votes cast in respect of their election were votes “for” their election. | |
| 23 |
|
If the shareholders fail to elect the minimum number of directors required under our articles due to a lack of a majority of “for” votes for one or more director nominees, the directors who were elected at the meeting may exercise all their powers as directors, provided that they constitute a quorum. If an incumbent director does not receive a majority of votes cast “for” their election, they are permitted to remain as a director until the earlier of (a) the 90th date after the date of the Meeting, and (b) the date on which their successor is appointed or elected, if necessary to satisfy quorum requirements. The elected directors may only re-appoint an incumbent director who was not elected in the most recent director election in order to fill a vacancy where their appointment is required to satisfy the CBCA requirements for either the minimum number of Canadian resident or non-management directors.
Beyond those exceptions, Teck’s Board no longer has discretion to determine whether a director who did not receive a majority of votes “for” their election can continue as a director. |
||
| Advance Notice Requirements | Teck’s by-laws contain advance notice requirements for director nominations, in order to provide a transparent, structured, and fair process in which shareholders can submit their proxy voting instructions on an informed basis. Shareholders who wish to nominate candidates for election as directors must provide timely notice in writing to the Corporate Secretary of the company and include the information required by the by-laws, not less than 30 days nor more than 65 days prior to the date of the meeting. Teck’s by-laws are available on our website at www.teck.com/about/corporate-governance. | |
Mandatory Shareholdings |
We require non-executive directors to own shares or share units equivalent to not less than three times their annual cash retainer and share-based retainer.
Teck updated its executive mandatory shareholdings policy in 2025. Senior management other than the CEO are now required to maintain holdings of shares and/or share units equal to three times their annual salary (previously, two). The CEO is required to hold six times his annual salary (previously, five). |

| Diversity – Board | The Board has adopted a company-wide Inclusion and Diversity Policy, and a specific Board Diversity Policy. If all nominees proposed to be elected as directors at the Meeting are elected: | |
| • | 4 of 11 directors (36%) will identify as women, including the Chairs of the Audit and Governance Committees and the Board | |
| • | 1 of 11 directors (9%) will be a person who identifies as a member of a visible minority | |
| • | No directors will be persons who identify as Indigenous peoples or persons with a disability | |
|
When considering candidates for director, the Governance Committee and Board consider the level of representation on the Board of members of designated groups, including women, visible minorities, Indigenous peoples, and persons with disabilities, in addition to candidates’ business skills, qualifications, and career history. The Board has adopted a Board Diversity Policy that requires that search consultants retained to assist with the identification of potential nominees be instructed to ensure that candidates reflecting these diversity criteria are brought forward for consideration.
The Board Diversity Policy includes a target that no one gender comprise more than 70% of directors at any time. The Board has not adopted any other diversity related targets at this time. |
||
| Diversity – Executives | Teck considers the level of representation of designated groups, being women, visible minorities, persons with disabilities, and Indigenous peoples in executive officer positions but has not set any targets. As of March 2, 2026, three out of 12 members of senior management of Teck (as defined in the CBCA) identify as women (25%), including the Board Chair. There are no members who identity as members of a visible minority, Indigenous peoples or persons with disabilities. Teck is committed to fostering and cultivating a diverse, equitable and inclusive culture and workforce by selecting the best individuals to occupy its Board, senior management and other roles within Teck, free of bias or discrimination. | |
| Read more about Diversity on page 29 | ||
| Board Evaluations | The Board conducted its annual Board, Committee and Peer effectiveness review, was conducted by Egon Zehnder in consultation with the Board Chair. Each Board member completed a survey to provide qualitative feedback on the Board, Committee and individual performance since the prior year’s in-depth independent third-party review. The Corporate Governance Committee reviewed the results of this process and discussed themes and opportunities for improvement. | |
| Shareholder Engagement |
Teck engages with shareholders to solicit feedback on its governance practices. The feedback received is an important component of the continuous evaluation of Teck’s existing policies. Teck values constructive dialogue with shareholders and investors and has a long-standing practice of engaging with shareholders through regular meetings to better understand their perspectives regarding Teck. The Board has adopted a Shareholder Engagement Policy describing how shareholders can provide direct feedback to the Board, which is available at www.teck.com/about/governance. | |
| Read more about Shareholder Engagement on page 31 | ||
| Director Orientation | The Board has adopted a Director Orientation Program designed to: | |
| • | provide each new director with a baseline of knowledge to serve as a basis for informed decision-making | |
| 24 |
| • | tailor the information provided to the director’s unique mix of skills, experience, education, and knowledge | |
| • | deliver information gradually to minimize overload and maximize lasting educational impact | |
| The orientation program consists of a combination of written materials, one-on-one meetings with Teck senior management, and other briefings and training as appropriate. | ||
| Continuing Education | The Board recognizes the importance of ongoing director education and the need for each director to take personal responsibility for this process. To facilitate ongoing education, Teck has a program of continuing education in place, and, as part of that program Teck: | |
| • | arranges presentations by internal and external experts to the Board or committees on matters of particular import or emerging significance to Teck | |
| • | provides briefings on matters of particular interest in advance of scheduled Board meetings | |
| • | distributes written background materials on matters of relevance to Teck’s business | |
| • | arranges tours of mine sites and other operations for groups of directors or committees of the Board, where directors have direct contact with operating management | |
| • | identifies external opportunities for continuing education, such as industry conferences, which may be of interest to individual directors | |
| Read more about Teck’s Director Education on page 31 | ||
| Director Compensation |
Director and officer compensation is set by the Board, as recommended by the Compensation Committee on the advice of its independent consultant and with reference to market data, with a view to establishing target compensation at the median of the Compensation Comparator Group.
We pay director compensation to non-executive directors only and do not issue stock options to non-executive directors. Directors take a substantial proportion of their fees in a share-based retainer and, until the mandatory minimum shareholding is reached, new directors must take all compensation in the form of DSUs, other than travel fees and reimbursement for out-of-pocket costs. | |
| Read more about Teck’s Director Compensation beginning on page 15 | ||
| Board Interlocks | The Board has not set a formal limit on the number of directors who may serve on the same board of another company; however, the Governance Committee does assess board interlocks in nominating individuals to serve on the Board and directors must disclose interlocks when they occur. The Governance Committee will not recommend to the Board nominees who are executives of another company and serve on its board if a Teck executive officer is also a member of that company’s board. Similarly, Teck’s executive officers may not serve on the board of another company if a Teck director is an executive at that company. Each potential case of interlocking directorships is reviewed on a case by case basis. There are currently no interlocking directorships. | |
| Attendance | Directors are expected to attend all meetings of the Board and Board committees on which they serve, to come fully prepared having read all materials, and to remain in attendance for the duration of the meetings. Under the Governance Committee Charter, the Governance Committee reviews the attendance of each director who has not attended at least 75% of Board or applicable committee meetings and considers their suitability for nomination as a director. Average attendance at Board and Committee meetings was 99% in 2025. | |
|
Over-boarding Policy |
The Board believes that directors must have sufficient time available to properly prepare for and attend Board meetings in order to make a full contribution to the Board. The Board considers an individual to be over-boarded (and generally ineligible for nomination as a Teck director) where an individual is on: | |
| • | more than three public company boards in addition to Teck, if they are not otherwise employed | |
| • | more than one public company board in addition to Teck, if they are employed full time | |
|
For the purposes of this policy, a board chair role is considered to constitute two director mandates. No director may serve on more than three audit committees without consent.
The Governance Committee may make exceptions if it is satisfied that a nominee will be able to devote sufficient time and attention to Board matters despite outside commitments. No exceptions were requested or granted in 2025. Once on the Board, directors must consult with the Chair prior to accepting additional board positions. | ||
| Code of Ethics |
Teck’s Code of Ethics is available on our website at www.teck.com and on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca.
The Audit Committee receives quarterly reports on the operation of Teck’s fraud reporting system and reports to its whistleblower hotline. Employees, officers, and directors are required to certify their compliance with the Code of Ethics annually. | |
|
Conflicts of Interest and Related Party Transactions |
Each director must possess and exhibit the highest degree of integrity, professionalism and values. A director who has a real or perceived conflict of interest regarding any matter under consideration is required to advise the Board of the conflict or perceived conflict and refrain from participating in any discussion of the matter and abstain from voting on it. This would include any potential related party transaction that may be considered by the Board, including in situations where there may be multiple parties involved in a competitive bid process.
Related party transactions are rare, but when they arise, they are carefully scrutinized by non-conflicted, independent directors, and would be reviewed in the context of Teck’s Code of Ethics on the basis of whether any such transaction was in the best interests of Teck. The Audit Committee Charter specifies that the Audit | |
| 25 |
|
Committee is responsible for reviewing with Management and internal and external auditors any significant related party transactions and potential conflicts of interest. An independent special committee may also be formed to review any material related party transaction. There were no material related party transactions considered or approved in 2025 and no directors with any material related party transactions on any committee.
A standing conflict of interest item is on the agenda for each Board meeting in order to prompt directors to proactively disclose any potential or perceived conflicts of interest or potential related party transactions and to facilitate disclosure and discussion of any potential issues as early as possible. | |
|
Ethical Business Culture |
Teck’s “Doing What’s Right” program reinforces the core values set out in our Code of Ethics. This program is refreshed through bi-annual online training for all employees, other than union or hourly workers.
Compliance with the Code of Ethics is monitored by an annual survey and certification of directors and staff employees. Directors and staff are required to certify that they have reviewed and complied with the Code and are either not aware of any non-compliance or that they have reported instances of apparent Code infractions to management, the Chair of the Audit Committee, or as otherwise prescribed. |
| Claw-Back Policy | Teck has adopted a formal policy to recoup management compensation in appropriate circumstances. As a NYSE-listed company, in 2023 Teck adopted a new executive compensation claw-back policy consistent with the requirements adopted by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. This policy requires the repayment of any incentive-based compensation that was erroneously awarded in the event of an accounting restatement of Teck’s financial results due to its material non-compliance with any financial reporting requirement under applicable securities laws, regardless of any misconduct or knowledge of the officer who received the compensation, with all executive officers being subject to the policy. The policy is available as an exhibit to Teck’s most recent Form 40-F filed on EDGAR at www.sec.gov/edgar. |
| Read more about Teck’s compensation clawback policies on page 36 | |
|
Anti-Hedging Policy |
Teck’s Employee Trading Policy prohibits insiders and employees from selling shares in Teck that they do not own or have not fully paid for (short-selling) and from buying or selling financial instruments on shares of Teck at any time that are designed to hedge or offset a decrease in the value of Teck’s shares, including equity-linked compensation. |
| Cybersecurity and Artificial Intelligence | The Audit Committee has explicit oversight under its Charter for cybersecurity-related matters, including for review of crisis management and business continuity plans and the potential impacts of artificial intelligence on Teck’s information systems and data. The Audit Committee receives a quarterly oral reports from management and written briefing materials on Teck’s cybersecurity risk management program, including details of top threats, risk management activities, vendor and supply chain monitoring, and internal training and awareness programs. The Board received cyber-security education in 2025 and all Teck employees were required to complete Teck’s cybersecurity awareness training on an annual basis beginning in 2025. Teck has also uses leading cybersecurity tools and services to detect and respond to potential security breaches, collaborates with cybersecurity experts in threat intelligence, vulnerability management, proactive and defensive monitoring and incident response, regularly reviews its vulnerability management program and has developed a crisis-response plan for handling cybersecurity incidents. The incident response plan, as reviewed by the Audit Committee is linked to our overall risk management program, prescribes roles and responsibilities informed by applicable regulations, including privacy breaches. |
Independence Determination
Each year, a detailed questionnaire is circulated to all director nominees to elicit the information required to assess director independence prior to preparation of materials for the annual meeting of shareholders. The Governance Committee assists the Board in its independence assessment for general Board purposes and for service on Committees, considering both the independence requirements of National Instrument 52-110 and the rules of the TSX and NYSE that are applicable to Teck.
The Board considers directors to be independent if they are not members of management and are free of any interest or any business, family, or other relationship that could reasonably be perceived to interfere with their ability to act with a view to the best interests of Teck, other than interests and relationships arising solely from holdings in Teck. The Board also considers whether directors have a direct or indirect material relationship with Teck as defined in subsection 1.4 of National Instrument 52-110. Any such material relationship will result in the Board to concluding that the relevant director is not independent.
The Board has concluded that 9 of the 11 director nominees in 2025, a majority, are independent, other than Mr. Price, who is Teck’s President and CEO, and Mr. Keevil, who is related to Teck’s former CEO and Chairman.
The Board holds in camera sessions without management and for independent directors for a portion of each Board meeting.
Risk Oversight
The Board has an overarching responsibility to take reasonable steps to ensure that management identifies, understands, and evaluates the principal risks of and to Teck’s business, implements appropriate systems to manage and mitigate these risks, with the aim of
| 26 |
achieving a proper balance between risk and reward. The Board receives regular quarterly reports from management on enterprise and site-specific risk management, in addition to reports regarding specific risks, including ethical conduct, financial management, environmental management, and employee health and safety.
The Board considers that the most significant risks facing Teck vary from time to time depending on the prevailing economic climate and the specific nature of Teck’s activities, strategy, and corporate objectives at the relevant time. At each meeting of the Board, the Board discusses current risks associated with Teck’s business and strategy and considers the general and particular risks Teck faces. In 2025, the Board continued to review progress in implementing Teck’s new enterprise risk management policy and associated framework, including progress related to defining risk appetite and refreshing the principal risks faced by Teck. In 2026, the Board will continue to oversee the implementation of this framework, including ongoing assessment and classification of risk and risk appetite for Teck’s operations, projects, and functional groups with reference to Teck’s updated risk matrix. The Board will regularly review the principal risks facing Teck, the appetite for various categories of risk, and relevant risk mitigation measures in order to monitor the potential vulnerability of Teck’s business and financial condition in light of risks that may arise, including:
| · | risks related to the health and safety of our employees and the communities in which we operate; |
| · | risks related to commodity prices, exchange rates, and general economic conditions; |
| · | risks related to strategic execution; |
| · | risks related to project development, including capital cost overruns and delays in receipt of permits or governmental approvals; |
| · | risks related to compliance, including water quality management and other environmental issues; |
| · | risks related to technology and information technology, including cyber and data security; |
| · | risks related to existing operations, including general risks related to operational efficiency and less common but potentially high impact risks, such as extreme weather events, labour disputes, and community issues; |
| · | risks related to the physical and transition impacts of climate change; |
| · | risks relating to outstanding litigation that Teck may be involved in from time to time; |
| · | risks related to workforce development and capabilities and talent management; and |
| · | longer-term risks such as geopolitical risk and risks related to adverse changes in tax, environmental, or other regulation. |
In 2025, the Board continued to devote significant attention to risks related to its strategic plans and new operating model, ramp-up of the QB2 project, including ongoing work related to the improvement of tailings facility performance, the impact of geopolitical risk on the market for Teck’s products and the economy more generally, and the potential risks and opportunities related to the Merger and assessment of alternatives related to Teck’s future as a standalone organization or as part of a merged entity with various potential counterparties. A detailed list of risk factors facing Teck can be found in our most recent Annual Information Form, which is available on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca.
As noted above, the relative significance of these risks shifts over time and the Board’s assessment of these risks and the risk ranking and appetite will depend in part on the context at the time of the assessment. The Board will continue to regularly review management’s processes in place for identification, monitoring, and mitigation of risk. The Audit Committee has separate processes in place to monitor risks related to financial reporting and other financial matters, and management’s processes to deal with those risks.
Dual-Class Share Structure
Governance Considerations
In 2023, following shareholder approval, Teck implemented a six-year sunset period for the dual class share structure with the result that on May 12, 2029, the Class A Shares will automatically convert into Class B Subordinate Voting Shares, which will then be renamed common shares, on a one-for-one basis. Until that date, the Governance Committee will continue to assess governance principles and developments relating to our dual class share structure. The Board believes that Teck’s constating documents, governing statute, and established practices currently provide reasonable protection against potential process concerns and that our governance practices and track record reflect a consistent regard for the interests of all shareholders, notwithstanding the different voting rights inherent in our capital structure. Protections include:
| · | under the CBCA, the approval of the holders of each class of shares, voting separately as a class, is generally required for fundamental corporate changes; |
| · | the existence of “coattail” provisions for the benefit of Class B Subordinate Voting Shareholders, with the aim of ensuring fair treatment of Class B Subordinate Voting Shareholders in the event of a take-over bid that is accepted by holders of a majority of Class A Shareholders, as discussed further below; and |
| · | both classes of shares are widely held and listed on the TSX and, while the trading volume of the Class A Shares is modest when compared to that of the Class B Subordinate Voting Shares, there are no restrictions on an investor purchasing Class A Shares in the market. |
Teck’s dual class share structure has been key in facilitating its growth into a major diversified Canadian mining company, as the principal Class A Shareholders have been committed long-term investors with a deep knowledge of Teck’s business and its industry, which is expected to continue during the sunset. The Board recognizes that this longer-term perspective has permitted Teck to make decisions that have helped grow shareholder value significantly over the last few decades and will continue to benefit all shareholders.
| 27 |
While in the vast majority of matters that come before the Board, the interests of both classes of shareholders are entirely aligned, the Governance Committee and the Board recognize that, to fulfill Teck’s commitment to good governance, the dual class share structure requires vigilance and robust governance practices. The dual class share structure does create a disparity between voting interests and equity interests that could create some potential for conflicts of interest, as could arise in any public company where there is an identifiable shareholder or group of shareholders holding majority voting control, whether under a dual class share structure or a single voting class structure. Accordingly, the Board and the Governance Committee closely scrutinize any situation in which the interests of Class A Shareholders and Class B Subordinate Voting Shareholders could diverge.
In this respect, our governance practices are intended to avoid even the appearance of a potential conflict of interest. For example:
| · | only 2 of 11 directors nominated for election at the Meeting have any interest in or relationship with any of the principal Class A Shareholders and no other director holds any Class A Shares; |
| · | the Board committees are constituted with 100% independent directors; |
| · | in addition to being independent, none of the directors on the Audit, Governance, or Compensation Committee have a material relationship with the principal Class A Shareholders; |
| · | directors and executives are required to maintain minimum holdings of Class B Subordinate Voting Shares or share units linked to the price of Class B Subordinate Voting Shares only; |
| · | equity-linked compensation for directors and officers is tied to the Class B Subordinate Voting Share price; and |
| · | we publicly report shareholder voting results in detail, including by class. |
Importantly, there is no provision in Teck’s articles or by-laws that would permit Class A Shareholders to take any corporate action unilaterally. All decisions of Shareholders must be taken at meetings at which appropriate notice is given. So long as Teck has more than one class of voting shares, the Governance Committee and the Board will diligently apply appropriate measures to ensure governance that respects the interests of all shareholders.
Upon completion of the proposed Merger, the resulting Anglo Teck plc entity will not have a dual-class share structure.
Subordinate Voting Shareholder Protection
The Class B Subordinate Voting Share rights contain so-called “Coattail Provisions” providing that if an offer (an “Exclusionary Offer”) to purchase Class A Shares is not made concurrently with an offer to purchase Class B Subordinate Voting Shares on identical terms, then each Class B Subordinate Voting Share will be convertible into one Class A Share at the holder’s option, provided that any converted Class A Shares are deposited to the Exclusionary Offer. Any shares so converted will automatically convert back if they are withdrawn from the Exclusionary Offer or not otherwise ultimately taken up and paid for by the offeror.
The Class B Subordinate Voting Shares will not be convertible if holders of a majority of the Class A Shares (excluding shares held by the offeror) certify to Teck that they will not, among other things, tender their Class A Shares to the Exclusionary Offer. The Coattail Provisions will not apply if an offer to purchase Class A Shares does not constitute a “take-over bid” under applicable securities legislation or stock exchange requirements or is otherwise exempt from any requirement that the offer be made to all or substantially all holders of Class A Shares.
The above is a summary only and reference should be made to the full text of the Coattail Provisions in Teck’s articles, which are available on our website at www.teck.com.
Board Renewal
The Board annually reviews its processes for Board renewal and believes that effective Director renewal has taken place, with the nominated independent Directors having an average tenure of 4.9 years and six of the nine independent nominees having joined the Board in the last five years. The Board has adopted a term limit of 15 years for independent directors, requiring that independent directors will not stand for election at the shareholders’ meeting that is 15 years after the year during which they were first elected or appointed. This term limit applies to independent directors only.
In adopting the 15-year term limit for independent directors, the Board considered the long term and cyclical nature of the mining business and the significant length of time required to advance a mining project from the exploration stage to an operating mine. The Board continues to place emphasis on annual rigorous evaluation of all directors, regardless of the term limit. The Board relies on the ongoing appraisal of the skills and contributions of individual directors as against the combination of skills and experience required for the Board to function well, as determined in the annual evaluation process. The Board believes that this ongoing assessment of the Board’s needs, combined with a rigorous director evaluation process and periodic rotation of Committee chairs and members, allows the Board to maintain the appropriate balance between long tenure, which brings deep familiarity with Teck’s business, institutional memory, and long-term perspective on the mining industry, and fresh perspective, which can prompt re-examination of various aspects of the business and governance practices.
Of the 11 director nominees, as at the Meeting date, 7 (64%) will have 5 years of service or less, 2 (18%), will have between 6 and 10 years of service, and 2 (18%) will have 11 or more years of service.
| 28 |
The Board believes that its approach combining a term limit with a holistic review as described above provides for effective Board renewal, ensuring the diversity of experience and skills required for effective decision making at both the Board and committee levels.
Directors’ Skills and Experience
The Board believes that a broad range of competencies and skills is necessary for the Board to discharge its responsibilities. The following skills matrix sets out the areas of expertise that the Board considers important in the context of our business. Each nominated director has identified their areas of expertise. All directors have leadership experience as CEO, CFO, or a similar senior management role in an organization of significant size or complexity. This matrix is evaluated annually by the Governance Committee, who use the skills matrix when assessing the needs of the Board in the context of succession planning and evaluating potential director candidates.

Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion
Board Diversity
Teck values diversity. The Board believes having directors with diverse backgrounds and experiences benefits Teck by enabling the Board to consider issues from a variety of perspectives, which can enhance effective decision-making and strategic planning. When assessing potential candidates for nomination to the Board, the Governance Committee considers diversity characteristics, including gender, national origin, ethnicity, Indigenous heritage, and disability, in addition to business skills, qualifications and career history, including experience in foreign jurisdictions. In the final analysis, the Governance Committee values the insight and judgment that can be garnered from the broad spectrum of different approaches that a diverse slate of directors can bring to the issues facing Teck as a global mining enterprise.
The Governance Committee considers the level of representation of women, visible minorities, Indigenous peoples, and persons with disabilities in identifying and nominating candidates for election or re-election to the Board and has adopted specific measures to ensure that diverse nominees are considered when candidates for election to the Board are considered. The Board has adopted a written policy in this regard, which includes a requirement that search consultants retained to assist with the identification of potential candidates to the
Board be instructed to ensure that candidates reflecting the Board’s diversity criteria, including those pertaining to gender diversity and representation of visible minorities, Indigenous peoples, and persons with disabilities, are brought forward for consideration.
The Board has adopted a goal of having no one gender comprise more than 70% of its members at any time. At this time, the Board has not adopted any other diversity related targets with respect to the representation of visible minorities, Indigenous peoples, or persons with
| 29 |
disabilities, due to the current level of diversity of its members, and the need to carefully consider a broad range of criteria when appointing directors, including skills and applicable residency requirements.
If all nominees proposed to be elected as directors at the Meeting are elected:
| · | 4 of 11 directors (36%) will identify as women, including the Chairs of the Board and Audit and Corporate Governance Committees |
| · | 1 of 11 directors (9%) will be persons who identify as a member of a visible minority |
| · | no directors will be persons who identify as Indigenous peoples or persons with a disability |
The Governance Committee annually reviews the process for ensuring that diversity criteria are considered in accordance with its policy when nominees to the Board are reviewed. The Board will measure the effectiveness of its policy over time by tracking Board diversity and reviewing candidate pools for diversity criteria.
Executive and Workforce Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion
The Board believes that diversity can help create a stronger company. We recognize that women in particular are underrepresented in management roles within our company and within the mining industry as a whole. At the end of 2025, women represented 26% of all Teck employees. In 2025, women accounted for 30% of all new Teck hires. We are committed to equality of opportunity and are taking concrete steps to strengthen the diversity of our talent pipeline and increase the representation of women in management roles within Teck. These include:
| · | proactively reviewing development plans for high-performing and high-potential women |
| · | ensuring senior management succession plans include women |
| · | identifying talented individuals for leadership development programs and encouraging them to apply for more senior roles |
| · | developing family-friendly flex-work policies to assist with recruitment and retention |
| · | regularly measuring gender pay equity to detect potential systemic pay gap issues |
| · | and changing job descriptions, titles, policies and procedures to be gender neutral and inclusive |
With respect to members of senior management, the Board considers the level of representation of women in executive officer positions when making executive officer appointments, as part of a broader focus on diversity in our workforce and management. For this purpose, we define diversity to include differences in age, race, gender, physical attributes, belief, language, sexual orientation, education, social background, and culture.
As of March 2, 2026, of Teck’s 12 members of senior management (as defined in the CBCA), three (25%) identify as women, including the Board Chair. None identify as members of a visible minority, Indigenous peoples or persons with disabilities.
In 2024, Teck adopted a goal of increasing the percentage of women working at Teck to 30% by the end of 2030. Teck has not adopted specific targets regarding number of executive officers who are women, visible minorities, Indigenous peoples, or persons with disabilities at this time, on the grounds that appropriate skills and experience must remain the primary criteria for such appointments, and out of a concern that the establishment of numerical targets could create a perception that persons in those roles have been appointed solely or primarily on the basis of those characteristics rather than their specific qualifications. We are committed, however, to taking measures to enhance the advancement of women in management. To that end, Teck has established an Inclusive and Respectful Workplace Steering Committee, chaired by Teck’s President and Chief Executive Officer, to oversee implementation and monitoring of Teck’s equity, diversity and inclusion initiatives.
Teck is seeking to increase participation of women and other diverse employees in all levels of its workforce. Teck completed its ninth annual gender equity pay review in 2025, including an analysis of annual incentive and review rankings by supervisors and promotions during the year. The review found no evidence of a systemic gender pay issue and continues to assist Teck in tracking progress of high potential female employees.
Management Succession Planning
In accordance with its mandate, the entire Board has oversight of succession planning for senior management. Succession plans for all senior positions are developed and maintained by the Senior Vice President and Chief Human Resources Officer (“CHRO”) in consultation with other senior executives. The Board annually reviews and considers a report from the CEO regarding potential internal succession candidates by position, as well as management’s action plan for positions where no succession candidate has been identified.
The Board separately considers succession as it relates to the CEO. The CEO and CHRO annually present a detailed report on potential CEO successors, which considers the state of readiness of internal succession candidates to succeed the CEO on an emergency, interim, and permanent basis, as well as development plans designed to give potential candidates critical experiences to enhance their readiness for succession. The Board reviews the report and discusses the attributes of each candidate in camera with the CEO to evaluate potential
skills gaps vis-à-vis desired CEO attributes and abilities. Teck’s internal and externally facilitated executive development programs are aimed at providing participants with the skills and experiences necessary to be considered for more senior roles, including CEO.

Orientation and Continuing Education of Directors
As part of Teck’s orientation program, new directors are given copies of all policies, codes and mandates and provided with guidance concerning Teck’s business and disclosure practices. Executive leadership team members are made available to meet with new directors to familiarize them with Teck’s operations, programs, and projects. This program is intended to provide insight into Teck’s business and familiarize new directors with the policies and programs they require to perform their duties effectively.
Teck’s ongoing director education programs entail, as a matter of routine each year, site visits, presentations from outside experts and consultants, briefings from staff and management, and reports on issues relating to Teck’s projects and operations, sustainability and social matters, competitive factors, mineral reserves and resources, the economy, accounting and financial disclosure issues, and other initiatives intended to keep the Board informed of new developments and challenges that Teck may face. Analysts’ reports relating to the industry are distributed to directors regularly along with selected press clippings covering the industry and Teck’s peers. Directors hold an annual strategy meeting to consider Teck’s possible growth paths and other strategic matters. Directors are also encouraged to attend, at Teck’s expense, industry conferences and director education seminars and courses.
Directors’ continuing education during 2025 included the following:

Shareholder Engagement
The Board believes that constructive engagement with Shareholders can provide valuable insight and assist the Board in maintaining high standards of governance, particularly important in the context of Teck’s dual class share structure. The Board has adopted a Shareholder Engagement Policy to address how Shareholders can engage with the Board, which is available on Teck’s website.
The Board Chair and the Chairs of the Compensation and Governance committees are available to respond to inquiries regarding governance matters, including the Board’s approach to executive compensation. Requests for meetings will be considered on a case-by-case basis. The Board will generally leave substantive discussion regarding the state of Teck’s business to management and may be restricted from discussing certain issues but will endeavour to respond to all correspondence on appropriate topics on a timely basis, having regard to Teck’s Corporate Disclosure Policy. The Board encourages shareholder participation at the Meeting, and the Chair will be available at the Meeting to answer shareholder questions concerning governance matters.
Teck strives to keep Shareholders informed with respect to its business activities and financial results, including holding quarterly earnings conference calls, participating in roadshows and attendance by management members at numerous investor conferences, some of which are webcast. Teck’s executive management held a QB operations site visit for investors and analysts in November 2025 to present Teck’s strategy for value creation and continuous improvement.
The Board, CEO and executive leadership team engage with Shareholders on an ongoing basis. Since the beginning of 2025, the Board Chair, along with the Chairs of the Compensation, Audit and Sustainability Committees in certain cases, met with shareholders holding an aggregate of 13% of the Class B Subordinate Voting Shares. Discussion topics have included the proposed Merger with Anglo American plc, the QB ramp-up, use of proceeds of the sale of Teck’s steelmaking coal business, Teck’s strategy, copper growth portfolio, and capital allocation framework, executive compensation, succession planning, and various other environmental, social and governance matters, in accordance with the Shareholder Engagement Policy.

Summary of 2025 Compensation Outcomes
Teck’s 2025 annual incentive plan rating reflects that 2025 was a transformational year for Teck, with the announcement of the merger of equals transaction with Anglo American plc being a significant milestone. Teck also delivered strong performance against our safety and sustainability metrics and targets, reflecting our ongoing commitment to responsible resource development and the wellbeing of our people. At the same time, 2025 was a challenging year for operational performance, especially during the first half of the year and challenges related to the ramp-up of QB operations. We did not meet many of our production and cost targets, and improving operational reliability remains a key area of focus. Based on these overall results, the company rating was 101%.
The table below summarizes the 2025 outcomes under the annual incentive plan.
Financial Performance (20%) |
Sustainability Performance (10%) |
Health & Safety Performance (10%) |
Operational Performance (40% |
Corporate Objectives (20%) |
Overall Company Rating (75%) |
Individual Ratings (25%) |
| 92% | 112% | 135% | 82% | 124% | 101% |
CEO: 150% NEO Average: 152% |
Performance-linked share units granted in 2022 vested in 2025 based on a performance factor of 109%, reflecting positive outcomes in our relative total shareholder return, return on capital employed, and sustainability and strategy objectives, moderated by disappointing performance against our production and cost targets. Performance Share Units granted in March 2022 had a grant date fair market value of $44.4937 and paid out at $59.9006, reflecting positive appreciation of the Class B subordinate voting share price during the vesting period.
The table below summarizes the performance factor outcomes under the performance-based component of the long term incentive plan for units that vested in 2025. For further information on the scoring for each element, please see Appendix A for details.
| Metric | Weighting | Component Rating | Performance Factor |
| Relative TSR | 20% | 140% | 28.0% |
| Return on Capital Employed (ROCE) | 20% | 110% | 22.0% |
| Production and Cost Performance | 20% | 20% | 4.0% |
| Sustainability Progress Index | 20% | 122% | 24.4% |
| Strategic Execution | 20% | 151% | 30.2% |
| Final Performance Factor | - | - | 109% |
Realizable Pay
The value that our executives realize from our equity programs is a key driver of the pay for performance relationship. Our emphasis on equity compensation and significant shareholding requirements for executives create a direct link between compensation and share price performance. A significant portion of target direct compensation is comprised of equity based long-term incentive awards. Accordingly, due to Teck’s share price performance in 2025, the realizable value of executives’ equity awards, including in-the-money value of stock options and marked-to-market value of share units, increased.
Teck operates in a cyclical industry and the realizable value of long-term incentives can vary dramatically from year to year and actual proceeds realized on vesting or payout of these awards may vary significantly from their current realizable values. Over the longer term, our realizable pay outcomes tend to reasonably reflect our target compensation levels, with significant volatility over the shorter term due to the cyclical nature of our business. Further details of this analysis can be found on page 46.
|
How is pay linked to performance? ✓ A high proportion of NEO compensation is at risk, contingent on the achievement of performance goals ✓ Annual incentive payments are based on Teck’s short term performance ✓ Performance-contingent share units vest based on Teck’s relative share price and financial, operational and sustainability performance over a three-year period. ✓ Stock options only have value to the extent that the share price increases over a 10-year period ✓ Restricted share units increase or decrease in value in direct alignment with Teck’s share price |
Compensation Philosophy and Approach
Our executive compensation programs are designed to meet the following objectives:
| · | attract, motivate, and retain highly qualified and experienced executives |
| · | reward executives for managing the business consistent with our short and long-term operational objectives, to enable long-term shareholder value creation |
| · | align compensation with performance over both the short- and long-term horizons |
| · | ensure that a significant proportion of compensation is directly linked to the success of Teck while not encouraging excessive or inappropriate risk-taking |
| · | promote adherence to the high standards and values reflected in our Code of Ethics, Code of Sustainable Conduct, and policies concerning safety and environmental stewardship |
| · | protect long-term shareholder interests by ensuring senior executive interests are aligned with those of shareholders |
| 34 |
Teck operates in a highly cyclical, capital-intensive industry with a long-term view to building value for our shareholders through the commodity cycle. Our share price performance is strongly influenced by changes in commodity prices, regardless of the operating performance of our business, so our incentive programs focus on financial, operational, strategic and sustainability performance. Teck’s Board is committed to paying for performance and providing strong alignment with shareholder experience through:
| · | an appropriate balance between fixed and variable compensation, with 85% of CEO and an average of 76% of other NEO compensation at risk in 2025 |
| · | an annual incentive program that incentivizes short-term financial, operational, sustainability, and health and safety performance in addition to achievement of key annual strategic objectives; |
| · | benchmarking against a comparator group with whom we compete for talent and targeting compensation at market median |
| · | emphasis on equity-linked long-term incentives, including 50% performance-contingent share units that pay out from 0-200% of target, depending on performance against multiple metrics during a three-year vesting period |

Compensation Consultant
Since 2012, the Compensation Committee has engaged Meridian to serve as independent advisor to the Compensation Committee, reporting directly to the Compensation Committee. Meridian does not provide any other services to Teck. The table below shows fees paid to Meridian for the last two financial years:
| Year | Advisor | Executive Compensation-Related Fees |
All Other Fees |
| 2025 | Meridian | $244,737 | $0 |
| 2024 | Meridian | $131,883 | $0 |
Compensation Risk
Our executive compensation program is designed to incentivize Management to increase long-term shareholder value within the framework of our risk management tolerance. Our risk management processes include regular reporting of key risks to the Board, and risk management is a standing agenda item for senior management meetings. This process supports a strong embedded risk management culture throughout the organization. In the normal course of business, Teck has strong control measures, including approval authority levels for corporate commitments and spending limits.
The Compensation Committee incorporates risk considerations in its ongoing compensation oversight role and periodically receives reports from its independent advisor, Meridian, reviewing compensation-related risks. Based on these reports and its ongoing compensation program review, the Compensation Committee determined in 2025 that it had a reasonable basis to conclude that there are no risks from the compensation programs that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on Teck.
| 35 |
The following are key risk mitigating features of Teck’s executive compensation program:
| · | appropriate balance between fixed and variable pay and short and long-term incentives |
| · | a mix of performance measures used at various organizational levels provides a balanced performance focus (e.g., financial, operational, safety, and environmental performance) |
| · | annual incentive program payouts are capped at 2x target |
| · | annual grants of stock options and performance-linked share units with overlapping vesting periods so management is continuously exposed to long-term risks of their decisions through unvested equity |
| · | stock options vest over three years and have a ten-year term, to support a focus on long-term share price growth |
| · | PSUs and PDSUs vest at the end of three years to reward achievement of long-term financial, operational, strategic, sustainability and relative share price performance objectives and enhance retention |
| · | DSU and PDSU value cannot be accessed until after employment ends, providing mid- to long-term alignment with risks inherent in Teck’s business |
| · | pay-out value of PSUs and PDSUs is partially tied to Teck’s TSR performance relative to the Performance Comparator Group, aligning executive compensation with shareholder returns and market/industry out-performance |
| · | executives are subject to share ownership guidelines in line with market practice |
| · | clawback and anti-hedging policies are in place |
Compensation “Clawback” Policy
In accordance with changes to the NYSE rules that are applicable to Teck, in 2023 the Board adopted a formal compensation reimbursement policy with expanded requirements for executive officers to. Details of the new policy include:
| · | executive officers are required to reimburse Teck for erroneously awarded compensation whenever there is a financial statement restatement required due to material non-compliance with any financial reporting requirement under securities laws |
| · | “erroneously awarded compensation” equals the amount of incentive-based compensation received in excess of the amount that would have been received had it been determined based on the restated amounts, without regard to taxes paid |
| · | reimbursement is required regardless of fault or whether the executive officer engaged in any misconduct |
| · | reimbursement requirements apply to incentive-based compensation received during the three-year period preceding the date Teck is required to prepare the accounting restatement |
| · | incentive-based compensation includes all compensation granted, earned, or vested wholly or in part upon the attainment of a financial reporting measure, which is broadly defined to include measures derived from an issuer’s financial statements or based on stock price or total shareholder return |
There have been no required reimbursements under this policy or Teck’s previous policy to date.
Share Ownership Guidelines
In 2025, the Compensation Committee reviewed peer practices for share ownership guidelines for NEOs and determined that the CEO and NEO mandatory minimum shareholding guidelines should be increased consistent with market practice. NEOs have five years to comply with from the date of appointment, as follows:
| · | CEO – 6 times base salary (previously, 5 times base salary) |
| · | NEOs – 3 times base salary (previously, 2 times base salary) |
As of December 31, 2025, based on the value of share units using the closing price of the Class B Subordinate Voting Shares on the TSX on that date, all of the NEOs who were subject to compliance met the shareholding requirement. NEOs may also meet the mandatory minimum based on the grant date value of share units issued to them.
The following table shows the number of Teck shares and share units held by each NEO who was an employee as at December 31, 2025, the value of those holdings using the closing price of the Class B Subordinate Voting Shares on the TSX on that date, the value of shares and share units required to meet the shareholding requirement.

The Compensation Committee has considered whether to implement mandatory holding periods following retirement for senior executives to align with certain commentators who regard such a policy as an important safeguard against short-term risk-taking behaviour by management. The Compensation Committee considers that such a policy could have unintended consequences in terms of retention in a volatile and cyclical industry such as the mining and metals industry and has decided not to impose such a requirement. PSUs held by management at their retirement date do not have accelerated vesting and must be held until their original vesting date, up to 3 years following retirement, which provides the same benefits as a mandatory holding period following retirement, but without the unintended retention consequences.
Compensation Comparator Group
The Compensation Committee believes that Teck’s long-term success hinges on the quality of the executive team and that Teck must be able to attract and retain the talent required to successfully operate and expand our business in a competitive marketplace. Our compensation program is therefore market-driven and performance-based and benchmarked against a Compensation Comparator Group that represents the market for executive talent. A separate Performance Comparator Group consisting of resources companies that Teck competes with for capital and with similar commodity exposure is used for judging performance under our PSU and PDSU plan (described in Appendix A “Equity Incentive Plans”).
In developing the Compensation Comparator Group, the Compensation Committee identifies companies of a similar scope and complexity, considering a variety of relevant criteria, including:
| · | companies in similar industries or with similar business characteristics (defined as global mining, metal refining, and resource-based companies); |
| · | similarly sized companies in terms of annual revenue, enterprise value, and market capitalization; and |
| · | companies that have commodity portfolios and locations similar to Teck, which is focused on copper and zinc, in multiple countries. |
The 2025 Compensation Comparator Group consisted of the following:
| Name | Asset Values1 (USD, |
Annual Revenue1 (USD, billions) |
Market Capitalization2 (USD, billions) |

The Compensation Comparator Group was reviewed by the Compensation Committee in 2025 with the assistance of Meridian, with the result that no changes were recommended or made.
| We follow best practices in compensation governance and risk mitigation, benchmarked and reviewed annually by the Compensation Committee. |
Annual Review and Approval Cycle
The Compensation Committee annually reviews our compensation programs, with reference to Compensation Comparator Group practices and advice and benchmarking data provided by Management and Meridian. Management proposes target compensation for NEOs other than that CEO, including pay mix, “at risk” pay, base salaries, and annual and long-term incentive compensation levels, which is reviewed and approved by the Compensation Committee with input from Meridian. The Compensation Committee considers CEO compensation separately taking into consideration CEO performance and the advice it has received from Meridian.
Following year-end, management assesses performance against objectives and presents proposed performance achievement levels and overall compensation results to the Compensation Committee, which reviews and considers whether outcomes are fair and reasonable
| 37 |
in light of corporate, business unit and individual executive performance, applies judgment where appropriate, and recommends the final compensation results to the Board for approval.
We consider a variety of factors in setting executive compensation, including performance against objectives, market conditions, shareholder experience, and alignment with our compensation objectives. This includes competitiveness of the compensation program and our ability to attract, motivate and retain talented employees and executives, based on benchmarking data and actual experience during recruitment. Total direct compensation is targeted within a competitive range of the median of the Compensation Comparator Group. Recognizing that market data is inherently imprecise and may not be reflective of the specific roles, responsibilities and experience of Teck’s NEOs, we use judgment to interpret market data and set target compensation levels. Compensation may also be above or below the assessed market median based on an incumbent’s performance, experience, tenure, and internal pay equity.
Our process for setting performance goals and reviewing performance against those goals is illustrated below.
Setting Performance Objectives
The CEO, in consultation with the Board and senior management, is responsible for developing Teck’s overall strategic plan. The CEO then develops an annual business plan and sets out corporate objectives consistent with that strategy, which are reviewed and approved by the Board. These objectives include corporate, financial, and strategic objectives that form the basis for assessing annual performance.
The CEO meets with the NEOs and other senior executives to discuss the annual corporate objectives. The senior executives, in consultation with the CEO, then set individual performance objectives linked to Teck’s strategy, annual business plan, and corporate objectives related to their respective areas of responsibility, which are discussed with the Compensation Committee.
Reviewing Performance
In reviewing performance and making compensation recommendations to the Board, the Compensation Committee considers the CEO’s performance with respect to the achievement of corporate objectives, strategic and annual business plans, and the CEO’s individual performance relative to his goals.
The Compensation Committee consults with the CEO concerning his evaluation of the performance of the NEOs and the CEO makes recommendations to the Compensation Committee regarding salary increases, annual incentives, long-term incentives, and total compensation. The Compensation Committee’s recommendations regarding NEO compensation are presented to the Board for approval.
| Our compensation plans are purposefully designed to create a clear connection between NEO compensation and Teck’s financial and operating performance against stretch targets. They are regularly reviewed and adjusted, when necessary to ensure a significant portion of NEO compensation is aligned with long-term shareholder value creation. |

| 39 |
The following charts set out the weighting of the direct compensation provided to the CEO and to the remainder of our NEOs in 2025, apart from health, disability, and life insurance benefits, pension and retirement programs, and perquisites. As shown in these charts, the total value is heavily weighted to “at risk” variable compensation (i.e. annual and long-term incentives).
Component: Base Salary
Base salary is determined based on the scope of the individual role, responsibilities, skills and performance of the incumbent. The Compensation Committee annually reviews the base salaries of the NEOs as against the similar roles within the Compensation Comparator Group to ensure that they remain competitive, targeting the market median.
Component: Annual Incentive Program
Our annual incentive program is focused on short-term performance and risk mitigation, including operational, financial, health and safety, sustainability, and achievement of annual corporate objectives. Target annual incentives are a percentage of base salary and annual incentive awards are based on assessment against objectives measuring performance at the corporate and individual level. We include safety and sustainability as key metrics of our evaluation of corporate performance in order to embed these core values in Teck’s culture and pay philosophy.
For NEOs, annual incentives are based 75% on corporate performance and 25% on individual performance. Corporate performance is based on a company component scorecard with five metrics weighted as noted below.
Corporate Component
| (1) | Operational performance is based on performance against cost and production targets established at the beginning of the year |
| (2) | The financial performance rating is based on performance against Teck’s budgeted EBITDA target, which is designed to be a stretch target |
| (3) | Health and safety performance is based on performance against leading and lagging indicators established at the beginning of the year |
| (4) | Sustainability performance against site-specific sustainability goals set at the beginning of the year |
Operational performance is measured against budgeted production and cost targets for each site established at the beginning of the year, weighted based on the size and importance of each site to Teck. These targets are stretch targets but are commercially sensitive so are not disclosed.
Financial performance is based on Adjusted EBITDA performance relative to our budgeted EBITDA. EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure and refers to the profit attributable to shareholders before net finance expense, provision for income taxes, and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is EBITDA before the pre-tax effect of certain types of transactions that reflect measurement changes on Teck’s balance sheet or are not indicative of normal operating activities. Teck believes that using Adjusted EBITDA assists readers to better understand the results of Teck’s normal operating activities and the ongoing cash-generating potential of the business and that, as a compensation metric, it is a reflection of management’s ability to operate the business and control the controllable.
| 40 |
At the beginning of each year, a preliminary target EBITDA is determined based on budgeted commodity prices. We do not disclose the production and sales targets that the target EBITDA is based on as they are commercially sensitive, but the target level of performance is calibrated based on the approved budget for the year and is set at a level that requires significant effort to achieve.
Health and safety performance is measured consistent with best practices using both leading and lagging indicators to measure our safety performance relative to targets set at the beginning of the year based on key health and safety strategic objectives. Discretion may be used to adjust the overall annual incentive awards to reflect safety outcomes. In the event of a fatality at any of Teck’s controlled operations, a negative adjustment may be applied on the overall annual incentive awards, to reflect the seriousness of the occurrence.
Sustainability performance in 2025 was based on site specific metrics developed for each of Teck’s operational sites, based on three components:
| · | Environmental Performance (25%), measuring progress on longer-term sustainability objectives or addressing operational needs, with performance targets set at each site related to rehabilitation, water, and/or climate change, with metrics intended to address key risks for each site |
| · | Environmental Compliance (50%), measuring performances of activities to address current compliance matters and actual compliance indicators, with performance targets set at each site related to regulatory compliance activities, including related to water use or discharge, air emissions, wildlife incidents, spills, and administrative reporting, with performance score subject to a modifier to be applied based on compliance performance and occurrence of or trends related to incidents |
| · | Social Management (25%), measuring implementation of Teck’s Social Incident Investigation and Reporting Procedure, with performance targets set at each site related to social incident identification and classification, reporting and investigation |
Achievement against key corporate objectives established at the beginning of the year is assessed holistically by the Compensation Committee, giving consideration to progress on key milestones within strategy that may not immediately contribute to financial performance but require ongoing skillful work by our executives to ensure long-term success. Results may be adjusted by the Board on the recommendation of the Compensation Committee based on a qualitative review considering the quality and sustainability of the financial results and the impact of any extraordinary unforeseen events during the year.
Individual Component
At the end of the year, the CEO meets with each of the NEOs to complete a formal review of achievements against their stated objectives and to share performance feedback. The CEO then assesses the performance of each NEO on a holistic basis considering a variety of factors, including performance against their individual objectives, and provides a recommended individual performance rating for the individual component of the annual incentive plan to the Compensation Committee. The CEO is reviewed on a similar basis with the individual performance rating determined by the Committee and approved by the Board.
Overall Annual Incentive Rating
The overall annual incentive ratings determined for NEOs reflect the sum of the performance for each weighted component and can range from 0% to 200% of target depending on the actual level of performance achieved, with 100% payable at the target level of performance for each component. Weightings and performance measures for each component of the annual incentive program, as well as target bonuses for the NEOs, are set out in the following table.
| Target Bonus (% of Salary) |
Corporate | Personal | |||
| Weight | Performance Measure |
Weight | Performance Measure | ||
| CEO | 140% | 75% | Company Component Scorecard | 25% | Individual performance objectives |
| CFO, Former COO, CCDO | 85% | 75% | Company Component Scorecard | 25% | Individual performance objectives |
| CLSO | 80% | 75% | Company Component Scorecard | 25% | Individual performance objectives |
Component: Long-Term Incentive Program
Our long-term incentive program for NEOs since 2024 has been 75% at risk, contingent on performance, and comprised of:
| · | 25% stock options, which only have value if the Class B Subordinate Voting Share price increases after the date of grant, and |
| · | 50% PSUs and/or PDSUs, which are contingent on the achievement of specific performance measures during a three-year performance period |
| · | 25% RSUs, which are paid out based on the value of the Class B Subordinate Voting Shares at the vesting date |
Detailed descriptions of our equity incentive plans can be found in Appendix A “Equity Incentive Plans”. Long-term incentive awards are designed to foster and promote Teck’s long-term financial success by:
| · | strengthening Teck’s ability to attract and retain highly competent executives |
| · | motivating and rewarding performance over the longer term |
| · | promoting greater alignment of interests of executives and shareholders, and |
| · | enabling management to participate in Teck’s long-term growth and financial success |
| 41 |
Long-term incentives are targeted to represent a significant portion of their direct compensation, to align with shareholder interests. The CEO provides recommendations to the Compensation Committee regarding long-term incentive grants to the NEOs and executives other than himself, based on the overall objective of targeting total direct compensation within a competitive range of the market median.
Stock Options
Stock options have a ten-year term, vest in three tranches on the first, second and third anniversaries of grant and have an exercise price equal to the closing price of the Class B Subordinate Voting Shares on the TSX on the date prior to the grant. Grant date fair value of stock options is determined using the Black-Scholes method. We base the number of stock options granted on a target dollar value and the share price on the day prior to the grant date.
Performance Share Units and Performance Deferred Share Units
PSUs and PDSUs vest after a performance period of three years, with PSUs paying out on the vesting date while PDSUs must be held until after the executive ceases employment with Teck. Executives may take up to 50% of their performance unit grant as PDSUs in any given year. We base the number of performance share units granted on a target dollar value and the VWAP of the Class B Subordinate Voting Shares on the TSX for the 20-day period prior to the grant date. The number of PSUs or PDSUs that vest at the end of the three-year performance period ranges from 0% to 200% of the number of units originally granted, depending on the performance factor.
The performance factor for PSU and PDSU grants issued since 2022 is based on a balanced scorecard that is considered and updated each year as appropriate. For PSU and PDSU grants made in 2022 and 2023, the performance factor was based on a balanced scorecard framework incorporating five different metrics as set out in the table below.
| Metric | Performance Basis | Weight | Purpose |
| Relative TSR | Relative TSR performance against the Performance Comparator Group (as above) | 20% | To measure our share price return relative to a peer group with whom we compete for capital |
| Return on Capital Employed (“ROCE”) | Change in 5-year average ROCE for operating assets | 20% | To further link executive pay to capital allocation discipline |
| Production and Cost Performance | Actual production and cost performance vs. targets | 20% | To further link executive pay to operational discipline |
| Sustainability Progress Index | Performance against certain longer term sustainability goals as set out below | 20% | To embed our sustainability values in compensation and incentivize implementation of our sustainability strategy |
| Strategic Execution | Achievement of key strategic priorities/milestones | 20% | To further link executive pay to execution of Teck’s strategic plan |
For PSU and PDSU grants made in 2024 and 2025, the performance factor was based on a balanced scorecard framework incorporating four different metrics as set out in the table below.
| Metric | Performance Basis | Weight | Purpose |
| Relative TSR | Relative TSR performance against the Performance Comparator Group (as above) | 40% | To measure our share price return relative to a peer group with whom we compete for capital |
| Return on Capital Employed (“ROCE”) | Change in 5-year average ROCE for operating assets | 20% | To further link executive pay to capital allocation discipline |
| Sustainability Progress Index | Performance against certain longer term sustainability goals as set out below | 20% | To embed our sustainability values in compensation and incentivize implementation of our sustainability strategy |
| Strategic Execution | Achievement of key strategic priorities/milestones | 20% | To further link executive pay to execution of Teck’s strategic plan |
Each of the sustainability objectives in the sustainability progress index aligns with Teck’s overall corporate strategy and measures Teck’s progress against specific goals in key areas, including climate change; equity diversity and inclusion; and performance on ESG ratings and rankings. From 2022 to 2024, the sustainability progress index included metrics related to biodiversity and reclamation and bringing Teck’s tailings facilities conformance into line with GISTM. Two of the metrics are aligned with metrics included in our sustainability-linked loan facility. Details on the sustainability progress index and how we intend to measure each of the elements of the performance metrics are set out in Appendix A “Equity Incentive Plans”.
Restricted Share Units
NEOs receive 25% of the target value of their long term incentive awards as RSUs, which vest after a three-year period and are paid out based on the paid out based on the VWAP of the Class B Subordinate Voting Shares on the TSX for the 20-day period prior to the vesting date. We base the number of performance share units granted on a target dollar value and the VWAP of the Class B Subordinate Voting Shares on the TSX for the 20-day period prior to the grant date.
Analysis of 2025 Compensation Results
Results: Base Salary
For 2025, base salary accounted for 15% of the CEO’s and an average of 24% of the other NEO’s total direct compensation. In February 2025, the Board approved salary increases of 3.5% for the CEO and an average of 3.9% for the other NEOs, effective April 1, 2025 in order to align salaries with the median of compensation comparator group, based on benchmarking conducted by Meridian.

Results: Annual Incentive Program
Overall performance rankings in our annual incentive program reflect the achievement of significant advances on our strategic goals and positive results for our health and safety performance, while recognizing challenges with the ramp-up at our Quebrada Blanca operations.
Corporate Performance
Consistent with the terms of our updated annual incentive plan described above, the corporate rating for 2025 was 101%, based on:
| Component | Weight | Rating | Weighted Rating | Measurement |
| Operational Performance | 40% | 82% | 33% | achievement of production and cost targets for each site |
| Financial Performance | 20% | 92% | 18% | achievement of the Adjusted EBITDA target against budget |
| Sustainability Performance | 10% | 112% | 14% | as described below |
| Health & Safety Performance | 10% | 135% | 11% | as described below |
| Corporate Objectives | 20% | 124% | 25% | as described below |
| 100% | 101% |
Operational performance was measured against budgeted production and cost targets for each site established at the beginning of the year, weighted based on the size and importance of each site to Teck. These targets are commercially sensitive so are not disclosed, but site ratings ranged from 50 to 119%. For financial performance, Teck’s adjusted EBITDA of $4.3 billion was 92% of the 2025 budget target of $4.7 billion. EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure. See “Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Ratios”.
The sustainability component score was based on assessment on each sites performance on the three focus areas, which was then averaged to provide the overall rating. Areas of focus for our operations in 2025 included:
| · | Environmental Performance – all sites achieved 90-100% of their base environmental performance metrics by year-end, and achieved a portion of their premium environmental performance metrics |
| · | Environmental Compliance – sites met or exceeded goals for compliance management improvement projects, other than Red Dog operations, which was limited by resource constraints; all sites demonstrated improvement in incident management over 2024 |
| · | Social Management – all sites achieved 97-100% of social performance metrics and achieved premium metric targets, including completion of effectiveness reviews |
The health and safety component score was based on assessment against the 2025 health and safety objectives, including:
| · | reduction in three-year high potential incident frequency rate, based on the three-year rolling average |
| · | culture of safety – implementation of Courageous Safety Leadership course and training in mental health first aid |
| · | fatality focus and learning – closure of high potential risk control gaps |
| · | operational excellence – completion of health and safety improvement plans |
| · | occupational health and hygiene – identification of material enterprise risks, detailed risk assessments, management of critical controls, and implementation of risk treatment plans |
Teck’s safety performance in 2025 improved over 2024, including a reduction in High Potential Injury Frequency by from 1.54 to 0.114. Teck also met or exceeded targets that were set for leading indicators.
The Sustainability Committee reviewed the sustainability-related performance ratings and the Safety, Operations & Projects Committee reviewed the health and safety-related performance ratings prior to approval by the Board.
Achievement of key corporate objectives was assessed at 124%, based on performance against objectives as follows:
| Objective | Weight | Rating | Weighted Rating | Components |
| People, Talent, Capabilities | 15% | 100% | 15% | Development of enterprise critical role talent strategies, implementation of assessment and development plans for potential executive leadership team successors, and progress towards Teck’s 30% by 2030 objective for female workforce participation |
| Transformation | 25% | 100% | 25% | Advancing the global design phase of the enterprise resources planning system implementation program on time and on budget, implementation of a three layers of defense model, and completion of functional cost benchmarking and establishment of cost reduction targets and implementation plans |
| Value Driven Growth | 45% | 160% | 72% | Targets for margin growth by resetting cost structures, increasing business efficiency and executing commercial strategy, volume growth through advancing permitting, engineering and community relations work to progress the Highland Valley Copper mine life extension, Zafranal and San Nicolas projects towards sanction, with longer-term plans for early stage projects |
| Capital Allocation | 15% | 80% | 12% | Maintaining disciplined capital allocation through maturing investment and strategy governance, delivering debt reduction, achieving completion testing for QB project financing, and executing the share buyback program |
| 100% | 124% |
| 43 |

Results: CEO Annual Incentive Bonus
Based on the ratings set out above, the annual incentive award made to the CEO for 2025 was calculated as follows. The same formula is used to calculate the annual incentive bonus for other NEOs.
| Weight x Performance Rating | ||||||||
| Salary | X | Target Bonus | X | Company Performance | + | Individual Performance | = | Total Bonus |
| $1,672,750 | 140% | 75% X 101% = 75.75% | 25% X 150% = 37.5% | $2,652,150 | ||||
The CEO’s total 2025 annual incentive award was higher than the target of 140% of base salary at 159% of base salary, to represent his strong performance in 2025.
Results: Long-Term Incentive Program
Long-term incentive grants represented approximately 62% of CEO and an average of 59% of the other NEO’s direct compensation mix in 2025. The total number of stock options and share units granted was lower in 2025 than in 2024 due to the higher underlying share price and the associated increase in fair value.
Performance Share Units and Performance Deferred Share Units Results
Performance-linked share units granted in 2022 vested in 2025 based on a performance factor of 109%, reflecting positive outcomes in our relative total shareholder return, return on capital employed, and sustainability and strategy objectives, moderated by disappointing performance against our production and cost targets. Performance Share Units granted in March 2022 had a grant date fair market value of $44.4937 and paid out at $59.9006, reflecting positive appreciation of the Class B subordinate voting share price during the vesting period.
The table below summarizes the performance factor outcomes under the performance-based component of the long term incentive plan for units that vested in 2025. For further information on the scoring for each element, please see Appendix A for details.

| (1) | Represents grant-date value of share-based and option-based awards. Actual compensation realized on these awards is variable. Share units in the form of PSUs or PDSUs are granted on an annual basis. See Appendix A “Equity Incentive Plans” for plan details. The fair value for option-based awards is consistent with the accounting fair value under IFRS, being the closing price of the Class B Subordinate Voting Shares on the day prior to the applicable grant date. The fair values for the 2023, 2024 and 2025 annual grants were $54.47, $52.15, and $58.22, respectively. Share-based awards are valued based on the 20-day VWAP of Class B Subordinate Voting Shares as of the grant date. The fair values for the 2023, 2024 and 2025 annual grants were $56.9988, 51.8289, and 59.9006, respectively. Mr. Bharmal received an additional grant of share units in 2024 with a fair value of $64.6445. Mr. Arnall received a grant in 2024 with a fair value of $65.7596 for share units and $65.37 for stock options. |
| (2) | For compensation purposes, the fair value of options on the grant date is determined applying the Black-Scholes option valuation model using Mercer’s assumptions, since this method is applied consistently in Mercer’s competitive market analysis. This differs from our accounting fair value due to differences in the underlying assumptions as summarized in the following table: |

Analysis of Realizable Pay
Alignment of Long-term Incentives with Share Performance
Teck bases a significant portion of its compensation on long-term incentives, to align management’s compensation with shareholder experience. The Compensation Committee recognizes the need to regularly assess the actual results of its long-term incentive plans to evaluate the alignment between pay and performance, especially when commodity prices vary significantly.
The summary compensation table above sets out in accordance with relevant regulatory requirements the grant date fair value of long-term incentives in the form of share-based and option-based awards to NEOs, based on the closing price of Class B Subordinate Voting Shares as at the grant date of the relevant awards. The Compensation Committee recognizes that these grant date fair value estimates do not reflect the actual compensation received by the NEOs when these awards are ultimately realized, which may be significantly higher or lower than the grant date fair value.
The realizable value of the stock option awards issued to NEOs is currently substantial due to the increase in the market price of the Class B Subordinate Voting Shares as a result of strong commodity prices. Since 2022, our Class B Subordinate Voting Shares have performed well vs. the majority of the peer companies, resulting in opportunities for our NEOs to realize value from their stock options and performance share units that vested in December 2022 and 2023.
The realizable value of performance share units that paid out from 2019 to 2021 was closer to or substantially below their grant date fair value. In a volatile cyclical industry such as the metals and mining industry, occasional large payouts under long-term incentive plans are both expected and necessary to provide compensation that, over the long term, is aligned with company performance and shareholder experience. The Compensation Committee takes this into account in assessing the reasonableness of its grant process. In the long-term, there has been strong alignment between the CEO’s realized total direct compensation and TSR over consecutive periods from the grant date to vesting.
Performance Graph
The following graph illustrates Teck’s five-year cumulative TSR (to December 31, 2025, assuming reinvestment of dividends on each dividend payment date) on a $100 investment on December 31, 2020 in Class A Shares and Class B Subordinate Voting Shares on the TSX compared to the return on a comparable investment on the S&P TSX Composite Index and the S&P TSX Global Mining Index during the same period. As the S&P TSX Global Mining Index reflects the performance of 75 global mining companies, it serves as a broad sector specific benchmark against which to compare Teck’s share price performance.
| 46 |
The aggregate grant date value of NEO compensation in 2025 was roughly the same as it was in 2021, notwithstanding a temporary increase in 2022 during a period of high executive transitions within the NEO group. Over the same period, the total shareholder return for Teck shareholders has outperformed both the S&P/TSX Global Mining Index and the S&P/TSX Total Return Index. $100 invested in Teck Class B subordinate voting shares in January 2021 was worth over $300 at the end of 2025, vs. approximately $250 or $210 value for a $100 investment in the S&P/TSX Global Mining Index or S&P/TSX Total Return Index, respectively, over the same period.
The aggregate cost of NEO compensation in 2025 was equal to 0.26% of Teck’s 2025 revenue of $10.756B.

Pensions
Defined Contribution Plans
Messrs. Bharmal, Hooper and Arnall and Ms. Prystai are participants in the defined contribution Teck Cominco Metals Ltd. Retirement Income Plan (the “DC Plan”), which is a registered pension plan under the Income Tax Act. They also participate in the defined contribution provision of the Supplementary Retirement Income Plan (the “DC Supplementary Plan”). Entitlements under the DC Plan vest on the date the NEO joins the DC Plan, while entitlements under the DC Supplementary Plan only vest 100% upon completion of five years as a member of the DC Supplementary Plan member. None of the NEOs participate in defined benefit pension plan arrangements.
| 48 |
In 2025, Teck contributed $38,810 for each participating NEO to the DC Plan, which is the maximum allowable under the Income Tax Act. The DC Supplementary Plan provides for notional contributions of 13% of base salary minus contributions remitted to the registered pension plans. Contributions to the DC Plan are invested in accordance with the individual participant’s election from the investment options offered to all plan members.
On retirement, the NEO is entitled to the distribution of the accumulated value of contributions under the DC Plan, as a lump sum, and the accumulated value of notional contributions under the DC Supplementary Plan, as a series of 120 equal monthly payments.
The amounts reported in the table below show the aggregate account balances for the two DC plans for each of these NEOs at the start of the year and at the end of the year, as well as the contributions made to the plans in the year:
| Name |
Accumulated Value at Start of Year ($) |
Compensatory ($) |
Accumulated Value at Year End(1) ($) |
| C.J. Prystai | $412,461 | $75,878 | $550,385 |
| S. Bharmal | $1,290,185 | $260,881 | $1,836,007 |
| N.P.M. Hooper | $289,174 | $71,815 | $401,718 |
| L.P. Arnall | $5,302 | $72,628 | $81,324 |
| (1) | Includes non-compensatory changes including interest. |
The amounts in the “Compensatory” column include the employer contributions to the DC Plan and notional contributions to the participant’s DC Supplementary Plan accounts. Mr. Price is not currently a member of any pension plan. Instead, he receives a cash amount in lieu of pension plan contributions. In 2025, that amount was $217,547.
Teck will provide each NEO with a post-retirement spending account if they meet certain service and retirement thresholds.
Termination and Change in Control Benefits
The NEOs each have employment agreements that detail their position, duties, and compensation and benefits (including base salary, annual incentive, share units and stock options, pension, vacation, and other perquisites), as well as provisions on resignation, retirement, termination for cause, termination without cause and termination following a Change in Control (as defined below).
No incremental payments or benefits are payable to any NEO upon a Change of Control unless the NEO is terminated by Teck without cause or resigns for good reason within 12 months of a Change of Control. For this purpose, “good reason” shall mean any significant change that is adverse to the executive’s position, status, job description, actual authority, work environment or compensation, including any requirement that the executive work greater than fifty kilometres from the office in which the executive works prior to the Change in Control, any change resulting from material reduction in the size or complexity of Teck’s business, or any adverse change in the reporting relationship of the executive, other than a change in the identity of the person or persons to whom the executive reports.
A Change in Control is defined for these purposes as:
| · | the acquisition by any person or group of persons acting jointly or in concert, other than Keevil Holdco and its associates, of direct or indirect ownership of, or control or direction over, voting securities carrying more than the greater of: (i) 25% of the votes attached to all voting securities of Teck; and (ii) the number of votes under the control or direction of Temagami, and following such event “Continuing Directors” cease to constitute at least a majority of the Board; |
| · | an amalgamation, arrangement or other business combination resulting in ownership and Board constitution as outlined above; |
| · | any person acquiring control or direction over securities to which are attached more than 50% of the votes attached to all voting securities of Teck; |
| · | the sale of all or substantially all of Teck’s assets; or |
| · | a determination by the Board that a Change in Control has occurred for purposes of the relevant agreement. |
The following table summarizes material terms and conditions that apply in the event of a separation event:

| (2) | Unvested options awarded in the 12-month period prior to retirement are forfeited. |
| (3) | See “Stock Option Plans” in Appendix A “Equity Incentive Plans” for description of “early retirement” and “normal retirement”. |
| (4) | The Committee has discretion to allow continued vesting of previously granted share units upon retirement, in accordance with the terms of the PSU Plan, the PDSU Plan and the RSU Plan. |
For an executive to receive payments following a termination without cause, the executive must:
| · | not use knowledge or experience gained as a Teck employee in any manner that would be detrimental to Teck’s business interests; |
| · | not directly or indirectly recruit or solicit any Teck employee for a period of 12 months following termination; |
| · | keep confidential all non-public information concerning Teck’s business, including business opportunities; |
| · | comply with Teck’s Employee Technology and Confidentiality Agreement and the Code of Ethics; and |
| · | return all Teck assets, including any documents, recordings or other format on which information belonging to Teck is stored. |
These obligations do not apply if the executive is terminated by Teck within 12 months of a Change in Control or where the executive resigns for good reason (as described above) within 12 months of the Change in Control.
The following table shows the estimated compensation payable assuming an NEO had been terminated effective on December 31, 2025, in connection with the applicable separation event.

APPENDIX A
EQUITY INCENTIVE PLANS
Stock Option Plan
Teck currently has options outstanding under one stock option plan, the Option Plan. Under the Option Plan, options may be granted to full-time employees of Teck or a subsidiary who are or who demonstrate the potential of becoming key personnel. The following table sets out as at December 31, 2025 the number and percentage (on a non-diluted basis) of Class B Subordinate Voting Shares reserved or available for issuance under the Option Plan:
| Number of Class B Subordinate Voting Shares | Percentage of Class B Subordinate Voting Shares | |
| Total reserved for issuance under Option Plan | 46,000,000 | 9.57% |
| Reserved under options that have been granted | 5,031,452 | 1.05% |
| Available for future grants | 8,410,494 | 1.75% |
The Board determines the amount of options granted and the applicable exercise price, which must be not less than the closing sale price of the Class B Subordinate Voting Shares on the TSX on the last trading day prior to the grant date. The maximum term of any option is 10 years and, unless otherwise determined by the Board, options vest in three equal instalments on the first, second and third anniversaries of the grant date. Class B Subordinate Voting Shares reserved for issuance under options under our Option Plan that expire or terminate without being exercised are returned to the pool available for grant.
The aggregate number of Class B Subordinate Voting Shares issuable to insiders of Teck at any time or issued to insiders of Teck within any one year period pursuant to the Option Plan and any other Teck share compensation arrangements may not exceed 10% of the aggregate number of issued and outstanding Class B Subordinate Voting Shares and Class A Shares. Options are not transferable or assignable except to the legal personal representatives of a deceased optionee.
Options granted under the Option Plan will not be affected by any change of office or employment of the optionee so long as the optionee continues to be employed by Teck or its subsidiary. Treatment of options on termination of employment differs depending on the reason for termination, as set out in the table below:
| Termination Reason | Treatment of Options | |
| Death | Options vesting within 3 years of death may be exercised by the estate until the earlier of (i) the 3rd anniversary of the date of death, and (ii) the later of the 1st anniversary of the date of death and the normal expiry date of such options | |
| Retirement | Vesting continues, except with respect to options granted within 12 months of retirement date, which are forfeited | |
| Options may be exercised until the earlier of the normal expiry date and the: | ||
| • | 3rd anniversary of retirement, if “Early Retirement Eligible” | |
| • | 5th anniversary of retirement, if “Normal Retirement Eligible” | |
| Retirement eligibility is dependent on: | ||
| • | the employee having at least 5 years of service | |
| • | the employee giving 6 months’ notice of intention to retire, and | |
| • | the sum of the employee’s years of service and age being at least 65 (early retirement) or 70 (normal retirement) | |
| Resignation | Vested options may be exercised until the earlier of (i) the normal expiry date of the options, and (ii) 90 days after the date of resignation | |
| Cause | All options are forfeited | |
| Any other reason | Vested options may be exercised until the earlier of (i) the normal expiry date and (ii) one year after the earlier of the date of notice of dismissal and the effective end date of employment | |
The Option Plan provides for certain adjustments in the number and kind of securities or other property issuable upon exercise upon the occurrence of certain events, including the subdivision or consolidation of the Class B Subordinate Voting Shares, the amalgamation, merger or business combination of Teck, a re-designation of Class B Subordinate Voting Shares, or a take-over bid for the Class B Subordinate Voting Shares. The Board may in its discretion accelerate the vesting dates and the expiry dates of outstanding options in the event of certain take-over bids and business combinations.
The Option Plan provides optionees with a share appreciation right (a “SAR”), in lieu of exercising, to realize the appreciation in value of the Class B Subordinate Voting Shares underlying such option, determined by multiplying the applicable number of Class B Subordinate Voting Shares by the excess of the current market value over the exercise price. A SAR may not be exercised in respect of more than 10,000 Class B Subordinate Voting Shares and up to 50% of the amount received may be applied to the purchase of Class B Subordinate Voting Shares from treasury at current market value.
Employees are prohibited from trading in Teck securities with knowledge of material information concerning Teck that has not been publicly disclosed. Teck establishes regular blackout periods during which employees may not trade in Teck securities, including exercising options. Under the Option Plan, options that would otherwise expire during or immediately following a blackout period will remain exercisable until the end of the fifth business day after the blackout period ends.
The Board may discontinue or amend the Option Plan at any time, provided, that shareholder approval must be obtained to:
| · | reduce the exercise price of an option directly or indirectly by means of cancelling one option and reissuing a similar option; |
| A-1 |
| · | extend the exercise period of an option beyond the normal expiry date (except in respect of blackout periods as noted above or in certain instances, on death of the optionee); |
| · | increase the levels of insider participation; |
| · | increase the number of Class B Subordinate Voting Shares reserved for issuance (other than as set out in the Option Plan); |
| · | add non-employee directors to the category of persons eligible to receive options; |
| · | amend any assignment rights; and |
| · | amend any matters for which shareholder approval is specifically required. |
The Board’s discretion includes, without limitation, the authority to make amendments to clarify any ambiguity, inconsistency or omission in the Option Plan and other clerical or housekeeping amendments, to alter the vesting or termination provisions, and to modify the mechanics of exercise. All amendments require stock exchange approval, and no amendment that could adversely affect an optionee may be made without the consent of the affected optionee.
To accommodate differences in local law, tax policy or custom applicable to non-Canadian optionees, the Board may provide additional or varied terms in option agreements as it considers necessary or appropriate.
Share Unit Plans
Teck has four share unit plans pursuant to which participants receive non-dilutive, notional share units with the following features:
| · | value is tied to the price of the Class B Subordinate Voting Shares at any given time; |
| · | not entitled to any voting or other shareholder rights; |
| · | receive dividend equivalents in the form of additional units, based on the value of the Class B Subordinate Voting Shares on the dividend payment date; and |
| · | paid out in cash. |
Share units are granted as an equity-linked retention bonus for employees’ continued service during the vesting period. In determining the recipients and terms of any share unit awards, the Compensation Committee may consider the expected functions and responsibilities of the person during the vesting period, the value of the person’s future services to Teck and other factors that the Compensation Committee deems relevant. Share unit awards are not made on the basis of past services to Teck and do not take into account employees’ previous performance. Participation, vesting, and payment details are set out in the following table:
| Plan | Participants | Vesting | Payment | |||
| DSU | • | Non-executive directors only (annual grant; all or a portion of annual retainer, by election) | • | Immediately on the grant date (Directors only) | • | by election no later than December 15 of the year after the participant ceases to be employed by Teck |
| PSU | • | Executive officers (annual grant, may elect between PSUs and PDSUs, up to 50% PDSUs) | • | no later than the 3rd anniversary of the grant date | • | on the vesting date |
| PDSU | • | Executive officers (annual grant, may elect between PSUs and PDSUs, up to 50% PDSUs) | • | no later than the 3rd anniversary of the grant date | • | by election no later than December 15 of the year after the participant ceases to be employed by Teck |
| RSU | •
• |
Employees
Non-executive directors who have met minimum shareholding requirements (all or portion of annual retainer, by election) |
• | no later than the 3rd anniversary of the grant date | • | on the vesting date |
All share units vest upon a change in control, with vesting level of performance-linked units determined by the Compensation Committee based on performance against the relevant metrics during the abridged performance period; however, awards pay out on their normal schedule.
Each DSU has a payout value equal to the closing price of the Class B Subordinate Voting Shares on the TSX on the trading day prior to the applicable payout date. Each RSU, PSU, and PDSU has a payout value equal to the VWAP of the Class B Subordinate Voting Shares for the 20 consecutive trading days prior to the applicable payout date.
All share units are cash settled, with no dilutive effect on Teck securities. As such, the share unit plans have no fixed maximum number or percentage of awards reserved. The following table sets out as at December 31, 2025 the number of outstanding share units under each plan and the percentage of the issued and outstanding Class B Subordinate Voting Shares that this number represents (undiluted):
| Plan |
Number of Share Units |
Percentage relative to number of outstanding Teck Class B Subordinate Voting Shares |
| DSU Plan | 443,971 | 0.09% |
| RSU Plan | 1,284,132 | 0.27% |
| PSU Plan | 755,741 | 0.16% |
| PDSU Plan | 36,453 | 0.01% |
| A-2 |
Performance-Linked Awards
Performance metrics are set at the time of grant which affect the number of PSUs and PDSUs that vest, which may be from 0% to 200% of the number of share units granted. This performance factor is determined, and the PSUs and PDSUs vest, following a performance period of approximately 3 years assessed against a balanced scorecard incorporating multiple metrics. The Compensation Committee meets prior to the vesting date of the relevant grants to determine the final performance factor to be applied, including qualitative assessment of progress against stated strategic and sustainability goals. Performance against sustainability related targets are reviewed and recommended to the Compensation Committee by the Sustainability Committee. Some subjective judgment may need to be applied in determining the final performance ranking for certain elements of the balanced scorecard.
Relative TSR and the Performance Comparator Group
For the purposes of performance linked awards, Relative TSR is defined as the annualized share price appreciation/depreciation plus dividends and any cash-equivalent distributions and is calculated using the share price at the beginning and end of the period, including the value of dividends paid during the period. Relative performance is measured incrementally as set out below.
Relative TSR is measured against a performance comparator group (the “Performance Comparator Group”). While the Compensation Comparator Group comprises a global selection of companies against whom Teck competes for talent, the Performance Comparator Group consists of companies primarily engaged in mining or refining multiple commodities and against whom Teck competes for capital.
Companies in the Performance Comparator Group are selected based on having similar attributes to Teck from an investment standpoint in the year of the applicable grant, and updates have been made as Teck’s portfolio has evolved. The companies in the Performance Comparator Group range widely in size, measured by revenues or market capitalization, commodities mined or refined and in global footprint. The diversity of size and composition in the Performance Comparator Group is necessary to construct a group size large enough to be appropriate for comparison and to minimize the effect of any one company’s performance.
Sustainability Progress Index
To strengthen the link between executive compensation and our sustainability performance, a new sustainability progress index was developed for use Teck’s performance share unit plans. Each of the themes within the sustainability progress index aligns strongly with Teck’s overall corporate strategy and will be measured against specific targets, set annually.
The Sustainability Progress Index has included climate change and gender diversity components since 2023, which are quantitative metrics that track linear progress towards Teck’s 2030 targets for reducing carbon intensity and increasing the proportion of women working at Teck. Those metrics are consistent with the metrics currently included in Teck’s sustainability-linked loan facility.
Strategic Execution
The strategic objectives metric will link executive compensation to execution of Teck’s strategic plan over the three-year timeframe of the performance share units. This may include goals such as:
| · | development of copper growth opportunities consistent with our prudent growth approach and capital allocation framework; |
| · | execution of major capital projects relative to controllable costs and schedule; |
| · | application of digital and technology solutions to reduce operating costs and improve productivity, safety, and sustainability; and |
| · | achievement of important strategic milestones that deliver shareholder value while acting as a responsible corporate citizen. |
Due to the commercially and strategically sensitive nature of the strategic plan, certain of these goals may not be fully disclosed, however the Compensation Committee will employ a rigorous process to set the strategic targets and assess performance against those targets at the end of the vesting period.
Grants in 2022 and 2023
The balanced scorecard for performance share unit grants in 2022 and 2023 measured performance against five metrics as set out below.
| Metric | Performance Basis | Weighting | Purpose |
| Relative TSR | Relative TSR performance against the Performance Comparator Group | 20% | To measure our share price return relative to a peer group with whom we compete for capital |
| Return on Capital Employed (ROCE) | Change in 5-year average ROCE for operating assets | 20% | To further link executive pay to capital allocation discipline |
| Production and Cost Performance | Actual production and cost performance vs. budget | 20% | To further link executive pay to operational discipline |
| Sustainability Progress Index | Performance against certain longer term sustainability goals | 20% | To embed our sustainability values in compensation and incentivize implementation of our sustainability strategy |
| Strategic Execution | Achievement of key strategic priorities and milestones | 20% | To further link executive pay to execution of Teck’s strategic plan |
| A-3 |
In 2022 and 2023, the Performance Comparator Group consisted of the following companies on the noted exchanges:
| · | Alpha Metallurgical Resources, Inc. (NYSE) |
| · | Anglo American plc (LSE) |

Grants in 2024
For grants in 2024, the balanced scorecard was amended to eliminate the Production and Cost Performance metric, as a similar metric was added to the revised annual incentive plan. As a result, the Relative TSR metric was increased to 40% weighting.
| Metric | Performance Basis | Weighting | Purpose |
| Relative TSR | Relative TSR performance against the Performance Comparator Group | 40% | To measure our share price return relative to a peer group with whom we compete for capital |
| Return on Capital Employed (ROCE) | Change in 5-year average ROCE for operating assets | 20% | To further link executive pay to capital allocation discipline |

| Strategic Execution | Achievement of key strategic priorities and milestones | 20% | To further link executive pay to execution of Teck’s strategic plan |
Also, the Performance Comparator Group was changed to reflect the sale of Teck’s steelmaking coal business, being:
| · | Anglo American plc (LSE) |
| · | BHP Group Limited (NYSE) |
| · | Boliden AB (STO) |
| · | Capstone Copper Corp. (TSX) |
| · | First Quantum Minerals Ltd. (TSX) |

| · | Ivanhoe Mines Ltd. (TSX) |
| · | Lundin Mining Corporation (TSX) |
| · | Rio Tinto plc (NYSE) |
| · | Vale SA (NYSE) |
Grants in 2025
In 2025, the same four-metric balanced scorecard was continued from 2024, but a revision was made to the Sustainability Progress Index as the work related to two of the five metrics had been substantially completed.
