CHR&G: Compensation, Human Resources and Governance Committee

Shareholder Outreach

Our Board of Directors and Compensation, Human Resources and Governance Committee is committed to engaging with shareholders and incorporating their feedback into our governance and planning processes. In advance of the AGM, the Board (Mr. Cook and Dr. Bell) reached out to several of the Company's largest shareholders to discuss key elements of Board governance, including strategy and compensation. The Board is very grateful to the institutions that agreed to speak with them and for the valuable and constructive feedback received during these conversations which informed the Board's discussions over long-term incentive grants. The Board has agreed to decrease the level of these grants for 2020, both to the Executive and Board members, by 35%. This decrease is in addition to the previously announced voluntary reduction of both Executive salaries and Director retainers. The Company remains committed to being transparent with and accountable to our investors and look forward to further engagement with shareholders. Dr. Carol Bell or Mr. David Cook can be reached at boardofdirectors@trans-globe.com .

Director Retirement

Ms. Susan MacKenzie chose not to stand for re-election, retiring effective May 12, 2020. The Board and the Executive wish to thank Ms. MacKenzie for her invaluable service over the past six years and wish her the best in her future pursuits.
