Caution Regarding Forward-Looking Information and other matters Information contained in this presentation which are not statements of historical facts, may be “forward-looking information” for the purposes of Canadian and U.S. securities laws. Such forward-looking information involves risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results, performance, prospects and opportunities to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward looking information. The words “believe”, “expect”, “anticipate”, “contemplate”, “plan”, “intends”, “continue”, “budget”, “estimate”, “may”, “will”, “schedule”, “understand” and similar expressions identify forward-looking information. These forward-looking statements relate to, among other things: expectations regarding whether the proposed transactions outlined herein, including the arrangement to acquire Thompson Creek Metals Company Inc. (“TCM”), the equity financing and the debt financing, the redemption of TCM’s outstanding notes, as well as the issuance of the Centerra shares in connection with the arrangement and the equity financing, will be consummated, including whether conditions to the consummation of the proposed transactions will be satisfied, or the timing for completing the transactions; plans to begin the development of the Öksüt Project in the second quarter of 2016 and timing for first gold production; Centerra Gold Inc.’s (the “Company”, or “Centerra”) expectations regarding the release of, and related timing of, low grade and high grade ore from cut-back 17 at the Kumtor Project; OMAS’ plans to use the Öksüt Facility to fund a substantial portion of the development and construction of the Öksüt gold mine; the expected timing for the completion of the feasibility study for the Greenstone Gold Property and the filing of a NI 43-101 compliance technical report; the Company’s expectations regarding additional infill, exploration, geo-technical and hydrological drilling in 2016 at the Gatsuurt Project; the Company’s expectations regarding negotiating a definitive development agreement with the Mongolian Government on the Gatsuurt Project and obtaining all necessary approvals and permits for the development of the Gatsuurt Project; statements found under the heading, “2016 Outlook”, in the Company’s management’s discussion and analysis for the year ended December 31, 2015, including forecast 2016 production and unit cost estimates, the Company’s plans to introduce a hedging program and supply chain management option to source lower fuel costs at the Kumtor Project, the Company’s plans in 2016 for exploration expenditures, capital expenditures at its properties, corporate administrative and community investment expenditures, and DD&A expenses for 2016. Forward-looking information is necessarily based upon a number of estimates and assumptions that, while considered reasonable by Centerra, are inherently subject to significant political, business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies.

the Company’s ability to manage its projects effectively and to mitigate the potential lack of availability of contractors, budget and timing overruns and project resources. See section titled “Risk Factors” in the prospectus to be filed by the company on SEDAR at www.sedar.com. Furthermore, market price fluctuations in gold, as well as increased capital or production costs or reduced recovery rates may render mineral reserves containing lower grades of mineralization uneconomic and may ultimately result in a restatement of reserves. The extent to which resources may ultimately be reclassified as proven or probable reserves is dependent upon the demonstration of their profitable recovery. Economic and technological factors which may change over time always influence the evaluation of reserves or resources. Centerra has not adjusted mineral resource figures in consideration of these risks and, therefore, Centerra can give no assurances that any mineral resource estimate will ultimately be reclassified as proven and probable reserves. There can be no assurances that forward-looking information and statements will prove to be accurate, as many factors and future events, both known and unknown could cause actual results, performance or achievements to vary or differ materially, from the results, performance or achievements that are or may be expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements contained herein or incorporated by reference. Accordingly, all such factors should be considered carefully when making decisions with respect to Centerra, and prospective investors should not place undue reliance on forward looking information. Forward-looking information is as of the date on which it is made. Centerra assumes no obligation to update or revise forward looking information to reflect changes in assumptions, changes in circumstances or any other events affecting such forward-looking information, except as required by applicable law. Except as otherwise noted herein, Gordon Reid, Professional Engineer and Centerra’s Vice President and Chief Operating Officer, has reviewed and approved the scientific and technical information contained in this presentation. Mr. Reid is a Qualified Person within the meaning of NI 43-101. For more information, please refer to the Company’s 2015 Annual Information Form and the technical reports referenced therein, which are available on SEDAR.

Transaction Rationale Creation of a geographically and operationally diversified gold producer with a high quality producing platform and a strong growth pipeline • Enhances Centerra’s current high quality producing platform with a balanced geopolitical risk profile: – – NAV from Canada/US assets increases from 12% to 47% 40% of total pro-forma gold reserves derived from Canada • Significant low-cost gold production: 2016 pro forma annual production of approximately 675-725 thousand ounces (Koz) of net gold(1) at total all-in sustaining costs (AISC) net of by-product credits of US$850-$925/oz(2) High quality growth project pipeline: – • – Growth to be driven by various projects including Oksut in Turkey, Gatsuurt in Mongolia, and Greenstone in Canada which are projected to drive incremental gold production of up to 500Koz • Maximized gold exposure: – Amended Royal Gold stream from a 52.25% to a 35% gold stream in exchange for a 18.75% copper stream repositions Mount Milligan as a world class primary gold mine with low by-product AISCs of US$775-$850/oz and an approximate 70% gold, 30% copper revenue split to Centerra(3) As well, there exists the potential for a multiple re-rating in line with gold producer peers – • Attractive acquisition return profile: – – Expected to be accretive to Net Asset Value (NAV) per share, cash flow per share, production per share, and reserves per share Strong acquisition IRR and payback • Strong balance sheet and superior financial performance: – Strong free cash flow generation and strong EBITDA together with an estimated pro forma debt to EBITDA of approximately 0.8x provide financial strength and flexibility • Optionality retained in molybdenum assets: – The Endako and Thompson Creek Mines will be kept on care and maintenance and the Thompson Creek mill will be used as a concentrate upgrade facility as they are currently. The Langeloth processing facility is expected to operate as a profitable toll processing facility The molybdenum business is expected to operate on a cash flow neutral basis and represents significant potential value upside in the future – Note: NAV contribution is approximate and is based on available broker consensus estimates. (1) Net gold defined as unstreamed gold produced plus streamed production multiplied by the stream price as a percentage of gold price.

Transaction Rationale Creation of a geographically and operationally diversified gold producer with a high quality producing platform and a strong growth pipeline • Enhances Centerra’s current high quality producing platform with a balanced geopolitical risk profile: – – NAV from Canada/US assets increases from 12% to 47% 40% of total pro-forma gold reserves derived from Canada • Significant low-cost gold production: 2016 pro forma annual production of approximately 675-725 thousand ounces (Koz) of net gold(1) at total all-in sustaining costs (AISC) net of by-product credits of US$850-$925/oz(2) High quality growth project pipeline: – • – Growth to be driven by various projects including Oksut in Turkey, Gatsuurt in Mongolia, and Greenstone in Canada which are projected to drive incremental gold production of up to 500Koz • Maximized gold exposure: – Amended Royal Gold stream from a 52.25% to a 35% gold stream in exchange for a 18.75% copper stream repositions Mount Milligan as a world class primary gold mine with low by-product AISCs of US$775-$850/oz and an approximate 70% gold, 30% copper revenue split to Centerra(3) As well, there exists the potential for a multiple re-rating in line with gold producer peers – • Attractive acquisition return profile: – – Expected to be accretive to Net Asset Value (NAV) per share, cash flow per share, production per share, and reserves per share Strong acquisition IRR and payback • Strong balance sheet and superior financial performance: – Strong free cash flow generation and strong EBITDA together with an estimated pro forma debt to EBITDA of approximately 0.8x provide financial strength and flexibility • Optionality retained in molybdenum assets: – The Endako and Thompson Creek Mines will be kept on care and maintenance and the Thompson Creek mill will be used as a concentrate upgrade facility as they are currently. The Langeloth processing facility is expected to operate as a profitable toll processing facility The molybdenum business is expected to operate on a cash flow neutral basis and represents significant potential value upside in the future – Note: NAV contribution is approximate and is based on available broker consensus estimates. (1) Net gold defined as unstreamed gold produced plus streamed production multiplied by the stream price as a percentage of gold price. Shown net of expected adjustment to the Royal Gold stream (see Slide 7 for details). (2) Pro forma AISCs include corporate level AISCs from Centerra and pro forma AISCs from Mount Milligan. (3) Based on the midpoint TCM’s 2016 production guidance under the expected adjustment to the Royal Gold stream at current spot prices of US$1,351/oz gold and US$2.21/lb copper at July 4, 2016. 19

Notes Regarding Mineral Properties Notes to mineral properties slides: (i) Mount Milligan All-in sustaining cost (“AISC”) have been adjusted into metrics shown on a “per ounce of gold basis” based on existing TCM guidance. They have been further adjusted for the expected change in the Gold Stream pricing. Shown net of byproduct credits. Adjusted operating costs, AISC, all-in costs and all-in costs - including taxes as well as sustaining capital, growth capital, average realized gold price per ounce and cost of sales per ounce sold are non-GAAP measures and are discussed under “Non-GAAP Measures” in the Company’s annual MD&A filed on SEDAR.(1) The mineral reserve estimates for Mount Milligan Mine were prepared by Robert Clifford, Thompson Creek’s Director of Mine Engineering, who is a Qualified Person under NI 43-101. The mineral reserve estimates were prepared using an ultimate open pit design optimized at spot metal prices of $2.95/lb copper, $1,250/oz gold, an exchange rate of US$1.00/C$1.10, a cut-off grade of 0.176% copper equivalent and takes into consideration metallurgical recoveries, concentrate grades, transportation costs, smelter treatment charges and royalty and streaming arrangements in determining economic viability. The mineral reserve estimates are based on the cost assumptions included in the NI 43-101 technical report entitled "NI 43-101 Technical Report-Mount Milligan Mine-Northern Central British Columbia" dated January 21, 2015 and filed on SEDAR on January 21, 2015. Mill recoveries vary by rock type and region but average 85.0% copper and 71.5% gold. Anticipated losses resulting from beneficiation average approximately 4.5% copper and 2.5% gold. Adjusted operating costs, all-in sustaining costs (AISC), all-in costs and all-in costs - including taxes as well as sustaining capital, growth capital, average realized gold price per ounce and cost of sales per ounce sold are non-GAAP measures and are discussed under “Non-GAAP Measures” in the Company’s annual MD&A filed on SEDAR.(1) The mineral reserves at Kumtor have been estimated based on a gold price of US$1,200 per ounce, as at December 31, 2015. The open pit reserves and resources at Kumtor are estimated based on a cut-off grade of 0.85 grams of gold per tonne for the Central Pit and 1.0 grams of gold per tonne for the Southwest and Sarytor deposits. Open Pit resources at Kumtor are constrained by a pit shell developed using a gold price of US$1,450 per ounce. Mineral resources are in addition to reserves. Mineral resources do not have demonstrated economic viability. Further information including key assumptions, parameters and methods used to estimate mineral resources and reserves, as well as legal, political, environmental and other risks are described in Centerra’s 2015 Annual Information Form dated March 31, 2016 filed on SEDAR. Adjusted operating costs, all-in sustaining costs (AISC), all-in costs and all-in costs - including taxes as well as sustaining capital, growth capital, average realized gold price per ounce and cost of sales per ounce sold are non-GAAP measures and are discussed under “Non-GAAP Measures” in the Company’s annual MD&A filed on SEDAR.(1) The mineral reserves at Öksüt have been estimated based on a gold price of US$1,200 per ounce, as at December 31, 2015.

The mineral reserve estimates were prepared using an ultimate open pit design optimized at spot metal prices of US$2.95/lb copper, US$1,250/oz gold, an exchange rate of US$1.00/C$1.10, a cut-off grade of 0.176% copper equivalent and takes into consideration metallurgical recoveries, concentrate grades, transportation costs, smelter treatment charges and royalty and streaming arrangements in determining economic viability. The mineral reserve estimates are based on the cost assumptions included in the NI 43-101 technical report entitled "NI 43-101 Technical Report-Mount Milligan Mine-Northern Central British Columbia" dated January 21, 2015 and filed on SEDAR on January 21, 2015. Mill recoveries vary by rock type and region but average 85.0% copper and 71.5% gold. Anticipated losses resulting from beneficiation average approximately 4.5% copper and 2.5% gold. The mineral resource estimates, exclusive of mineral reserves, for Mount Milligan Mine were prepared by Mr. Clifford. The mineral resource estimates were tabulated within a conceptual open pit shell using spot metal prices of US$3.50/lb copper, US$1,500/oz gold, a cut-off grade of 0.176% copper equivalent, and takes into consideration metallurgical recoveries, concentrate grades, transportation costs, smelter treatment charges, and royalty and streaming arrangements. The mineral resource estimates are based on the cost and price assumptions included in a NI 43-101 technical report entitled "NI 43-101 Technical Report-Mount Milligan Mine-Northern Central British Columbia" dated January 21, 2015 and filed on SEDAR on January 21, 2015. The mineral resource estimate for the Berg property was approved by Mr. Clifford. The mineral resource estimate for the Berg property was prepared using a 0.30% copper equivalent cut-off, with copper equivalency defined using metal prices of US$1.60/lb copper, US$10.00/lb molybdenum, and US$10.00/oz silver, taking into account forecast metallurgical recoveries. Resources are reported to a maximum depth of 450 meters (1,476 feet) below surface. The mineral resource estimates for TC Mine and Endako Mine were prepared by the TC Mine and Endako Mine staff, respectively, under the supervision of Mr. Clifford, who approved the disclosure of the mineral resource estimate. The mineral resource estimates utilized a cut-off grade of 0.030% Mo and an average long-term molybdenum price of US$10.00 per pound. The mineral reserves previously reported proved to be uneconomic and have been re-allocated back as mineral resources and reported in the tables above.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures The information in this presentation includes the following non-IFRS financial measure: all-in sustaining costs. This financial measure does not have any standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and is therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers, even as compared to other issuers who may also be applying the World Gold Council ("WGC") guidelines, which can be found at http://www.gold.org. Management of Centerra believes that the use of this non-IFRS measure will assist analysts, investors and other stakeholders of the Company in understanding the costs associated with producing gold, understanding the economics of gold mining, assessing the Company's operating performance, the Company's ability to generate free cash flow from current operations and to generate free cash flow on an overall Company basis, and for planning and forecasting of future periods. However, the measure does have limitations as an analytical tool as it may be influenced by the point in the life cycle of a specific mine and the level of additional exploration or expenditures a company has to make to fully develop its properties. Accordingly, these non-IFRS measures should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for, analysis of the Company's results as reported under IFRS. A reconciliation of the non-IFRS measure presented in this presentation is contained in the Company's most recently filed annual MD&A, which is available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com. 24
