Caution regarding COVID-19

As of the date of this Notice and the accompanying Management Proxy Circular, the Company intends to hold the Meeting at the location and time stated above in this Notice. However, in light of the rapidly evolving public health guidelines related to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic ("COVID-19"), the Company is asking shareholders to consider voting their shares by proxy, rather than attending the Meeting in person. Shareholders who do wish to attend the Meeting in person should carefully consider and follow the

instructions of the federal Public Health Agency of Canada: (https://www.canada.ca/en/public-health/services/diseases/coronavirus-disease-covid-19.html).

We ask that shareholders also review and follow the instructions of any regional health authorities of the Province of British Columbia, including the Vancouver Coastal Health Authority, the Fraser Health Authority and any other health authority which has authority to govern the areas that a shareholder must travel through in order to attend the Meeting in person. Please do not attend the Meeting in person if you are experiencing any cold or flu-like symptoms, or if you or someone with whom you have been in close contact has travelled to/from outside of Canada within the 14 days immediately prior to the Meeting. All shareholders are strongly encouraged to vote by submitting their completed form of proxy ("Form of Proxy") or voting instruction form prior to the Meeting by one of the means described in the Management Proxy Circular which accompanies this Notice.

The Company reserves the right to take any additional pre-cautionary measures deemed to be appropriate, necessary or advisable in relation to the Meeting in response to further developments in the COVID-19 outbreak or order established by applicable regional health authorities in the Province of British Columbia, which could include changing the location of the Meeting, hosting the Meeting by means of virtual communication only, placing further restrictions on in-person attendance (including limiting or prohibiting attendance) or postponing or adjourning the Meeting. Should any such changes to the Meeting format occur, the Company will announce any and all of these changes by way of news release, which will be filed under the Company's profile on SEDAR.

Notice-and-Access

The Company is utilizing the Canadian Securities Administrators' notice-and-access delivery mechanism (the "Notice-and-AccessProvisions") under National Instrument 54-101 - Communication with Beneficial Owners of Securities of a Reporting Issuer and National Instrument 51-102 - Continuous Disclosure Obligations, for distribution of Meeting materials to registered and beneficial shareholders.

Website Where Meeting Materials are Posted

The Notice-and-Access Provisions are a set of rules that allows reporting issuers to post electronic versions of proxy-related materials and annual financial statements (including the Management Proxy Circular) on-line, via the System for Electronic Document Analysis and Retrieval ("SEDAR") and one (1) other website, rather than mailing paper copies of such materials to shareholders. Electronic copies of the Management Proxy Circular, the annual audited

consolidated financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2020 (the "Financial Statements") and management's discussion and analysis of the Company's results of operations and financial condition for the year ended December 31, 2020 (the "MD&A") may be found on the Company's SEDAR profile at www.sedar.comand the Company's website at www.southgobi.com. In relation to the Meeting, the notice package for all shareholders will include the Form of Proxy, this notice of the annual general meeting of shareholders and a supplemental return card (collectively, the "Meeting Materials"). The Meeting Materials for those shareholders with existing instructions on their account to receive printed materials and those shareholders with addresses outside of Canada and the United States will also include a printed copy of the Management Proxy Circular. All other shareholders will receive only the required notification documentation under the Notice-and-Access Provisions, which will not include a paper copy of the Management Proxy Circular.

Obtaining Paper Copies of Materials

The Company anticipates that using the Notice-and-Access Provisions for delivery will directly benefit the Company through a substantial reduction in both postage and material costs, and also promote environmental responsibility by decreasing the large volume of paper documents generated by printing proxy-related materials.

Shareholders with questions about the Notice-and-Access Provisions may call our transfer agent, AST Trust Company (Canada) (the "Transfer Agent"), toll-free at 1-888-433-6443 or outside Canada and the U.S. at 416-682-3801 (which is not a toll-free number). The Meeting Materials can be viewed online on the Company's website at www.southgobi.com. Please note that if you request a paper copy of the Meeting Materials, you will not receive a new Form of Proxy or voting instruction form, so you should retain these forms sent to you in order to vote. Shareholders may also obtain paper copies of the Management Proxy Circular, Financial Statements and MD&A free of charge by contacting the Company's Corporate Secretary at 604-762-6783 (which is not a toll-free number).
