the Company’s ability toattract and retain qualified personnel; competition for mineral acquisition opportunities; risks associated with the conduct of joint ventures/partnerships; and the Company’s ability to manage its projects effectively and to mitigate thepotential lack of availability of contractors, budget and timing overruns and project resources. For additional risk factors, please see section titled “Risks Factors” in the Company’s most recently filed Annual Information Form available onSEDAR at www.sedar.com.
Furthermore, market price fluctuations in gold and copper, as well as increased capital or production costs or reduced recovery rates may render ore reserves containing lower grades of mineralization uneconomic and may ultimately resultin 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 maychange 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 resourceestimate will ultimately be reclassified as proven and probable reserves.
Mineral resources are not mineral reserves, and do not have demonstrated economic viability, but do have reasonable prospects for economic extraction. Measured and indicated resources are sufficiently well defined to allow geologicaland grade continuity to be reasonably assumed and permit the application of technical and economic parameters in assessing the economic viability of the resource. Inferred resources are estimated on limited information not sufficient toverify geological and grade continuity or to allow technical and economic parameters to be applied. Inferred resources are too speculative geologically to have economic considerations applied to them to enable them to be categorized asmineral reserves. There is no certainty that mineral resources of any category can be upgraded to mineral reserves through continued exploration.
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 ordiffer 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 consideredcarefully when making decisions with respect to Centerra, and prospective investors should not place undue reliance on forward-looking information. Centerra assumes no obligation to update or revise forward-looking information toreflect 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, John Fitzgerald, Professional Engineer andCenterra’s Vice President Projects and Technical Services, has approved the scientific and technical information (other than exploration related information) contained in this presentation and is a Qualified Person within the meaning of NI43-101. For more information, please refer to the properties technical reports, which are available on SEDAR. All figures are in United States dollars unless otherwise stated.January 2021

(1) Refer to National Instrument 43-101 technical report dated July 12, 2017 Technical Report for the Kemess Underground and Kemess East Project, British Columbia, Canada, available in the AuRico Metals filings on SEDAR. A preliminary economic assessment (PEA) is preliminary in nature and includes inferred mineral resources that are considered too speculative geologically to have the economic considerations applied to them that would enable them to be categorized as mineral reserves, and there is no certainty that the PEA will be realized.
(2) AISC is a Non-GAAP measure, see MD&A and News Release November 4, 2020.(3) Includes pre-commercial net revenue and capitalized pre-production operating expenditures.(4) Kemess Underground reserves are estimated using a gold price of $1,250 per ounce, copper price of $3.00 per pound, an exchange rate of 1USD:1.25CAD and an NSR cut-off of C$17.30 per tonne.(5) Kemess East resources are estimated using a gold price of $1,450 per ounce, copper price of $3.50 per pound, an exchange rate of 1USD:1.25CAD and an NSR cut-off of C$17.30 per tonne.January 2021

• Priority is the health, safety and well-being of employees, contractors, communities and other stakeholders, and to minimize spread of virus at operations and local communities
• Working remotely successfully and where possible
• Restrict access to mine sites continues
• Increased cleaning and hygiene protocols at all sites/offices, including temperature checks and health/activity questionnaires before site/office entry
• Kumtor• Extended crew rotation from two-week to up to four weeks, currently have returned to regular rotation but monitoring• On site work crews separated by department• Maintain social distancing and cleaning, shielding and hygiene protocols in camp• Replacement crews segregated and brought in early to monitor health at an offsite facility; thoroughly health and exposure
screening prior to crew change• Any sign of medical issues, immediate removal from site, then testing
• Mount Milligan• Early April reduced mining activity resulting in a significant manpower reduction to help prevent spread of virus but now back
to normal levels• Mill continued to process at full capacity in 3rd q to now• Continue social distancing and increased cleaning and hygiene protocols in camp• Removal of employees or contracts at first sign of any medical signs
• Öksüt• Running mine at full production since April 18• Continued to stack ore onto heap leach pad, irrigate the pad and operated ADR plant• Continue social distancing and increased cleaning and hygiene protocols• Provide social distancing on buses for crew change, required PPE including masks for workers on site

Molybdenum Price Movement Thompson Creek Mine
Endako Mine
● Located in Idaho, is the world’s fourth largest open-pit primary molybdenum mine
● Operations began in 1983, using conventional open-pit mining and a on-site 25,500 tpd mill
● In December 2014 placed on care and maintenance
● Endako Mine is a fully integrated molybdenum facility located in BC
● TCM is the operator and 75% owner; Sojitz owns 25%
● Endako consists of three adjoined pits and a fully integrated operation with on-site mill and multiple hearth roasting facility
● New 55,000 tpd processing facility was completed in 2012 for~US$500MM
● In July 2015 placed on care and maintenance
Langeloth Metallurgical Facility● Located 40 km west of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania● Operates both as a toll processor and as a purchaser of molybdenum
concentrates from third parties, producing a suite of premium molybdenum products
● Cash flows from the Langeloth operations are not sufficient to cover the $12 to $14 million in care and maintenance expenses associated with the molybdenum mines
