Sherritt International Corporation's (‘Sherritt’ or ‘the Corporation’) primary business is focused on the production of nickel and cobalt for sale in the global market. Its Technologies Group creates innovative, proprietary solutions for natural resource-based industries around the world to increase economic value and improve environmental performance. Sherritt's strategic priority is to be a responsible and low-cost producer of finished nickel and cobalt while maintaining strong performance in the areas of environment, health and safety, and sustainability. The common shares of the Corporation are listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange under the symbol “S”. Sherritt has a 50/50 partnership with General Nickel Company S.A. (GNC) of Cuba in the Moa Joint Venture (Moa). The Moa Joint Venture mines, processes and refines nickel and cobalt for sale worldwide, except in the United States. The Moa Joint Venture is a vertically-integrated joint venture (JV) that mines lateritic ore by open pit methods and processes them at its facilities in Moa, Cuba into mixed sulphides containing nickel and cobalt. The mixed sulphides are then transported to refining facilities in Fort Saskatchewan, Alberta (the Fort Site). The Fort Site facilities provide inputs (ammonia, sulphuric acid and utilities) for the Moa Joint Venture metals refinery. Sherritt also has 100% ownership over the production of agricultural fertilizer, which is a byproduct of mineral production. Nickel and cobalt products from the joint venture are sold to various markets, primarily in Europe, Japan and China. Marketing and sales of the nickel and cobalt processes are supported by Sherritt’s wholly-owned corporation, based out of satellite offices in the Bahamas. Sherritt also has a wholly-owned Oil and Gas division that explores for and produces oil and gas primarily from reservoirs in close proximity to the coastline along the north coast of Cuba. Additionally, Sherritt retains a 33% share in Energas S.A. (Energas), which is a joint venture established to process raw natural gas and generate electricity for sale to the Cuban national electrical grid. Cuban government agencies Unión Eléctrica (UNE) and Unión Cubapetróleo (CUPET) hold the remaining two-thirds interest in Energas. Sherritt's Oil and Gas division and Energas are reported on together as "OGP". |

2022 GHG emissions for the metals business, which is inclusive of the Fort Site and Moa Nickel, remained within the historical range as there were no material changes in activities or operations from previous years. However, an increase in production at OGP operations resulted in a subsequent increase in overall Sherritt emissions for 2022. |
||||||||||||||

Please see details below on how GHG emissions were reported concerning joint ventures and partnerships where Sherritt does not own 100% of each business unit responsible for emissions: |
||||||||||||||
|
Sherritt discloses GHG emissions on behalf of our JV partners. Accordingly, the total emissions attributed to Sherritt in this report, and other sustainability reports prepared by the Company, overrepresent Sherritt's specific Scope 1 emissions. The total of Scope 1 emissions that can be attributed to Sherritt are 50% for the Moa Nickel Site and Fort Site combined, and 33% for the OGP business due to the level of ownership by Sherritt in each joint venture. Furthermore, any analysis conducted to assess the emission intensities of Sherritt’s businesses or product, should consider that the Sherritt’s metals business is comprised of the Fort Site and Moa Nickel Site and the OGP business is comprised of various other sites. Production totals for each separate business should be used to calculate emission intensities. |

Sherritt discloses GHG emissions on behalf of our JV partners. Accordingly, the total emissions attributed to Sherritt in this report, and other sustainability reports prepared by the Company, overrepresent Sherritt's specific Scope 2 emissions. The total of Scope 2 emissions that can be attributed to Sherritt are 50% for the Moa Nickel Site and Fort Site combined, and 33% for the OGP business due to the level of ownership by Sherritt in each joint venture. Furthermore, any analysis conducted to assess the emission intensities of Sherritt’s businesses or product, should consider that the Sherritt’s metals business is comprised of the Fort Site and Moa Nickel Site and the OGP business is comprised of various other sites. Production totals for each separate business should be used to calculate emission intensities. Data Table - Energy Indirect (Scope 2) GHG Emissions |

Sherritt is committed to tracking and managing our energy use and GHG emissions at each site. Sites are required by our Climate Change standard to implement GHG emission management systems that meet various requirements in line with the Mining Association of Canada’s (MAC) Towards Sustainable Mining (TSM) Climate Change Protocol. Additionally, Sherritt has established a climate action plan that includes aspirational interim targets for reducing our carbon footprint that are aligned with global net-zero ambitions. Furthermore, as part of the climate action plan, baseline GHG emissions assessments are being completed at all operations. This will enable improved emissions management in future years. |

Our Water Management Standard requires all sites to implement a water monitoring program that addresses surface water and groundwater, in which both water quality and water quantity monitoring parameters have been informed by identified risks. Sites are required to maintain records of facility-level water quality and quantity data and to conduct regular trend analyses to inform iterative water management decision making processes. |
||||||||||||||
| Describe the approach used to identify water-related impacts, including the scope of assessments, their timeframe, and any tools or methodologies used |
Sherritt’s Water Management Standard requires sites to identify and assess facility- level risks related to surface water and groundwater. Sites are required to establish water performance objectives that include controls, response and contingency plans, and monitoring for the relevant water risks. Where relevant, sites are required to identify and engage with relevant water-related Communities of Interest (COI) to better understand how they use water resources, including water-related local practices, beliefs, customs and traditional knowledge in the case that water-related impacts arise. |
||||||||||||||
| Describe how water-related impacts are addressed, including how the organization works with stakeholders to steward water as a shared resource, and how it engages with suppliers or customers with significant water-related impacts |
Water management at each of our sites is tailored to site specific requirements and the application of overarching principles contained within Sherritt's Water Management Standard. Water management is a cooperative effort between Sherritt and the appropriate regulatory agencies. |
||||||||||||||
| Explain the process for setting any water-related goals and targets that are part of the organization’s management approach, and how they relate to public policy and the local context of each area with water stress |
Sherritt has established public targets related to water recycling objectives as part of our current 5-year Sustainability Goals. These targets were selected based on the water risk profile of the sites (moderate to low risk), and operational optimization opportunities. |

Emergency Preparedness and Response Plans (EPRPs) are developed along with the Operations Maintenance and Surveillance (OMS) manual every two years or when a major facility change occurs. EPRPs are prepared by the Engineer on Record and the Tailings Dam Team. The initial draft is sent for peer revision and the final version is sent to Moa Nickel Directors and Sub-Directors for revision and commentaries. Finally, this document is sent to local authorities for approval. |
||||||||||||||
| Disclose the company's approach to engagement concerning Emergency Preparedness and Response Plans (EPRPs) at tailings storage facilities, including the preparedness of local stakeholders |
EPRPs and the OMS are prepared to establish a close commitment with the surrounding neighborhood La Veguita. Two major safety campaigns are implemented annually to engage the local population and warn them of the inherent risk of living near tailings facilities. Tailings dam personnel are also trained in these items throughout the year and during their safety inductions and training. |

| Disclose the approach to biodiversity management |
Sherritt is committed to identifying, managing, protecting, and conserving biodiversity. Our Biodiversity Management Standard is designed to meet all the Level A requirements of the TSM Biodiversity Conservation Management Protocol. To achieve implementation of our Biodiversity Management Standard, operating sites are required to develop a site level biodiversity action plan that assesses potential impacts or risks to biodiversity and identifies specific objectives or targets for significant biodiversity aspects. These biodiversity action plans include considerations such as local ecological knowledge, identification of any no-go or buffer zones near key areas, and monitoring and evaluation mechanisms. Action plans are designed to address legal and corporate obligations (including those related to closure and post-closure) and align with existing regional initiatives, where possible. |
