World Gold Council We are a proactive member of the World Gold Council (“WGC”) Board and, in 2019, Franco-Nevada played a leading role at the World Gold Council during the establishment of the RGMPs, which principles are being implemented by all World Gold Council members. Paul Brink, President & CEO of Franco-Nevada Corporation, is currently a director of the World Gold Council, and is the Chair of its Compensation Committee. Franco-Nevada Diversity Scholarship and BlackNorth Initiative We have several diversity and inclusion related contributions and initiatives, including our Franco-Nevada Diversity Scholarship for studies in mining-related fields and our BlackNorth Initiative pledge commitments. These are described on page 30 of this ESG Report. Canadian Mineral Industry Education Foundation In 2023, we supported the Canadian Mineral Industry Education Foundation, which has been offering scholarships since 1964 to undergraduate students with a strong interest in a career in the mining industry. Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum In 2023, we supported the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum, which collaborates with other organizations to advance a more sustainable future for the mining industry, minimize duplication, and accelerate key industry issues and initiatives towards the development and advancement of standards and leading practices across the full spectrum of the minerals, metals, materials and energy sectors. Continental Resources In 2023, we funded the final year of our three-year commitment to help finance Continental Resources’ solar-powered water recycling project in Oklahoma. Through water recycling the Continental team materially reduces the amount of fresh water required for operations. By powering the facility with solar energy, they reduce emissions of the facility with the use of renewable energy as opposed to using energy from the grid. PDAC We are the primary sponsor of the Prospectors & Developers Association of Canada (“PDAC”) annual awards that recognize industry successes in exploration, development, safety, environmental stewardship and aboriginal cooperation and we are sponsors of PDAC's Mining Matters initiative. David Harquail, Chair of the Board of Franco-Nevada Corporation, is a PDAC board member and Eaun Gray, Senior Vice President, Business Development of Franco-Nevada Corporation, sits on the PDAC Convention Planning Committee. “We are a proactive member of the World Gold Council Board and, in 2019, Franco-Nevada played a leading role at the World Gold Council during the establishment of the RGMPs, which principles are being implemented by all World Gold Council members.” Diversity Scholarship
