Toronto (April 9, 2020) — Agnico Eagle Mines Limited (NYSE: AEM, TSX: AEM) (“Agnico Eagle” or the “Company”) provided notice today of an update to the location for the Company’s 2020 Annual and Special Meeting of Shareholders, to be held on Friday, May 1, 2020 (the “AGM”).  Additionally, the Company today announced that it will release its first quarter 2020 results on Thursday, April 30, 2020, after normal trading hours.
 
Annual Meeting
 
Due to the continuing public health impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, and having regard to the health and safety of the Company’s employees and shareholders as well as public health guidelines to limit gatherings of people, the AGM will now be held in a virtual only meeting format on Friday, May 1, 2020, at 11:00 AM (E.D.T.).  Online access to the AGM will begin at approximately 10:30 AM (E.D.T.).  You will not be able to attend the AGM in person.  The Company expects to revert back to an in-person annual meeting in future years after public health conditions have improved.
