Mr. Norman MacDonald reports

OR ROYALTIES APPOINTS MR. KEVIN THOMSON TO ITS BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND PROVIDES ADDITIONAL BOARD UPDATE

OR Royalties Inc. has appointed Kevin Thomson as an independent director to its board of directors. Concurrently, the company announces that William Murray John has resigned as a director of the company, effective immediately.

Mr. Thomson brings over 40 years of senior strategic mergers and acquisitions experience in the mining industry. Most recently, Mr. Thomson served as senior executive vice-president, strategic matters, for Barrick Gold Corp., where he was involved in all matters of strategic significance, including the management of complex negotiations, development of Barrick's corporate strategy, involvement in complex legal issues and governance-related matters. Prior to joining Barrick in 2014, Mr. Thomson was a senior partner at Davies Ward Phillips & Vineberg LLP and was one of Canada's leading mergers and acquisitions lawyers, where he advised many of Canada's largest and most successful public companies on a number of industry-leading transactions and also was a key strategic and legal adviser to a number of the country's leading private enterprises. Mr. Thomson is one of Canada's most distinguished securities lawyers, and, prior to joining Barrick, worked closely with Barrick's management team and its board of directors as a key strategic adviser since 1995. In addition, he was also the longest-standing member of the committee responsible for managing the Davies Ward firm. Mr. Thomson received a BA (with distinction) in history from Queen's University in 1979 and an LLB from Queen's University Law School in 1982.

Mr. John was appointed to the board as an independent board member in February, 2020. During this time, Mr. John served on the governance, nomination and sustainability committee and also played a vital role on OR Royalties' independent investment review committee. The company thanks Mr. John for his many valuable contributions during his time on the board and wishes him success in his future endeavours.

Norman MacDonald, chair of OR Royalties' board of directors, commented: "Murray has been a key independent member of OR Royalties' board for six years. During this period, the company benefited substantially from his specific combination of technical expertise and investment portfolio management. While his technical perspective will be missed, we are adapting our board composition to reflect the company's evolving strategic needs. To that end, we are thrilled to welcome Kevin Thomson, who brings a distinct and complementary skill set to the table. Kevin's 40-year track record in managing complex legal negotiations and corporate strategy at the highest level of the mining industry will be invaluable to OR Royalties as the company continues to execute on its global growth strategy. We look forward to his strategic insights and contributions going forward."
