NOTICE AND ACCESS NOTIFICATION TO SHAREHOLDERS

NOTICE OF ANNUAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS TO BE HELD ON DECEMBER 8, 2016

You are receiving this notification as Candente Gold Corp. (“Candente Gold” or the “Company”) has decided to use the notice and access model (“Notice and Access”) provided for under recent amendments to National Instrument 54-101 for the delivery of meeting materials to its shareholders for its annual general meeting of shareholders to be held on December 8, 2016 (the “Meeting”). Under Notice and Access, instead of receiving printed copies of the Company’s management information circular (“Information Circular”), financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2016 and management’s discussion and analysis (collectively, the “Meeting Materials”), shareholders are receiving this notice with information on how they may access such Meeting Materials electronically. However, together with this notice, shareholders continue to receive a proxy (in the case of registered shareholders) or voting instructions form (in the case of non-registered shareholders), enabling them to vote at the Meeting. The Company has adopted this alternative means of delivery in order to further its commitment to environmental sustainability and to reduce its printing and mailing costs. This notice serves as notice of meeting under section 169 of the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia).

3. to fix the number of directors at 5 (five). For detailed information regarding the matter, please refer to the subsection in the Information Circular under the heading “ELECTION OF DIRECTORS”;

4. to elect the directors of the Company for the ensuing year. For detailed information regarding the matter, please refer to the subsection in the Information Circular under the heading “ELECTION OF DIRECTORS”;

5. to approve the Company’s 10% rolling Stock Option Plan. For detailed information regarding the matter, please refer to the subsection in the Information Circular under the heading “SECURITIES AUTHORIZED FOR ISSUANCE UNDER EQUITY COMPENSATION PLANS”;

6. to appoint Dale Matheson Carr-Hilton Labonte LLP (“DMCL”), Chartered Professional Accountants, as the Company’s auditors for the ensuing year and authorize the directors to fix their remuneration. For detailed information regarding the matter, please refer to the subsection in the Information Circular under the heading “APPOINTMENT OF AUDITOR”;

7. to transact such other business as may properly come before the Meeting or any adjournment thereof.
