APPENDIX “A”    A-1

This annual information form (“AIF”) provides important information about Pan American Silver Corp. It describes our business, including our goals and strategy, our history, our operations and development projects, our mineral reserves and mineral resources, our approach to environmental, social and governance (“ESG”) matters, the regulatory environment that we operate in, the risks we face, and the market for our products, among other things.

Unless we have specified otherwise, all references to dollar amounts or $ or USD are United States dollars. Any references to CAD or CAD$ are Canadian dollars.

All financial information presented in this AIF was prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IFRS”).

The term “Silver Segment” for 2024 used within is comprised of the La Colorada, Cerro Moro, Huaron, and San Vicente mines, while the “Gold Segment” was comprised of the Jacobina, El Peñon, Dolores, Shahuindo, La Arena, Timmins West and Bell Creek, and the Minera Florida mines. The contributions from the La Arena mine are for the period January 1, 2024, to November 30, 2024, unless otherwise stated.

This AIF refers to various non-generally accepted accounting principles (“non-GAAP”) measures, such as cash costs per ounce sold, net of by-product credits (“Cash Costs”), all-in sustaining costs per ounce sold (“AISC”), working capital, net cash, and total debt. Readers should refer to the section entitled “Alternative Performance (Non-GAAP) Measures” in our management’s discussion and analysis for the year ended December 31, 2024 (the “2024 MD&A”) for a detailed description and reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures. The 2024 MD&A is available under our SEDAR+ profile at www.sedarplus.ca and on our website at www.panamericansilver.com.

Cash Costs and AISC are non-GAAP financial measures that do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and are therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies.

Cash costs per ounce metrics, net of by-product credits, are used extensively in our internal decision-making processes. We believe the metric is also useful to investors because it facilitates comparison, on a mine-by-mine basis, notwithstanding the unique mix of incidental by-product production at each mine, of our operations’ relative performance on a period-by-period basis, and against the operations of our peers in the silver and gold industry. Cash costs per ounce is conceptually understood and widely reported in the mining industry.

We believe that AISC, also calculated net of by-products, is a comprehensive measure of the full cost of operating our business, given it includes the cost of replacing silver and gold ounces through exploration, the cost of ongoing capital investments (sustaining capital), as well as other items that affect our consolidated cash flow.

Silver Segment Cash Costs and AISC are calculated net of credits for realized revenues from all metals other than silver (“silver segment by-product credits”) and are calculated per ounce of silver sold. Gold Segment Cash Costs and AISC are calculated net of credits for realized revenues from all metals other than gold (“gold segment by-product credits”) and are calculated per ounce of gold sold.

Working capital is a non-GAAP financial measure calculated as current assets less current liabilities. Working capital does not have any standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and is therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Pan American and certain investors use this information to evaluate whether Pan American is able to meet its current obligations using its current assets.

Total debt is a non-GAAP measure calculated as the total current and non-current portions of: long-term debt (including amounts drawn on the Sustainability-Linked Credit Facility (“SL-Credit Facility”)), lease liabilities, and loans payable. Total debt does not have any standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP and is therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. The Company and certain investors use this information to evaluate the financial debt leverage of the Company.

The glossary of terms under “Glossary of Terms” contains definitions of certain scientific or technical terms used in this AIF that might be useful for your understanding.

In this AIF, metric units are used with respect to mineral properties unless otherwise indicated. Conversion rates from imperial to metric units and from metric to imperial units are provided in the table set out below.

This AIF includes statements and information about our expectations for the future. When we discuss our strategy, plans and future financial and operating performance, or other things that have not yet taken place, we are making statements considered to be forward-looking information or forward-looking statements under Canadian securities laws and the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. We refer to such forward-looking information and forward-looking statements together in this AIF as forward-looking information.

Key things to understand about the forward-looking information in this AIF are:

•It typically includes words and phrases about the future, such as believe, estimate, anticipate, expect, plan, intend, predict, goal, target, forecast, project, scheduled, potential, strategy and proposed (see examples starting on page 4).

•It is based on a number of material assumptions, including, but not limited to, those we have listed below, that may prove to be incorrect.

•Actual results and events may be significantly different from what we currently expect, because of, among other things, the risks associated with our business. We list a number of these material risks below under “Material Risks and Assumptions”. We recommend you also review other parts of this AIF, including "Risks

Related to Our Business" starting on page 62, and our 2024 MD&A, which includes a discussion of other material risks that could cause our actual results to differ from our current expectations.

Forward-looking information is designed to help you understand management’s current views of our near- and longer-term prospects. It may not be appropriate for other purposes. We do not intend to update forward-looking information unless we are required to do so by applicable securities laws.

You should not attribute undue certainty to forward-looking information. Although we have attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially, there may be other factors that cause results not to be as described. We do not intend to update forward-looking information to reflect changes in assumptions or changes in circumstances or any other events affecting such information, other than as required by applicable securities laws.

Please see “Cautionary Note to U.S. Investors Concerning Estimates of Mineral Reserves and Mineral Resources” on page 7 of this AIF.

Christopher Emerson, FAusIMM, our VP, Exploration and Geology, and Martin Wafforn, P. Eng., our Senior VP, Technical Services, Safety and Process Optimization, have reviewed and approved the scientific and technical information in this AIF. Scientific and technical disclosure in this AIF for our material properties is based on reports prepared in accordance with National Instrument 43-101 – Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects (“NI 43-101”) (collectively, the “Technical Reports”). The Technical Reports have been filed on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca. The technical information in this AIF has been updated with more current information where applicable, such updated information having been prepared under the supervision of, or reviewed by, Christopher Emerson and Martin Wafforn. Mineral reserve and mineral resource estimates in this AIF relating to the La Colorada, Shahuindo, El Peñon, Jacobina and Escobal mines have been reviewed and approved by Christopher Emerson and Martin Wafforn. Scientific and technical information relating to current and planned exploration programs set out in this AIF are prepared and/or designed and carried out under the supervision of, or were reviewed by, Christopher Emerson.

The Technical Reports are as follows:

•a report relating to the La Colorada property entitled “Amended NI 43-101 Technical Report for the La Colorada Property, Zacatecas, Mexico”, dated effective December 18, 2023, by M. Wafforn, C. Emerson, P. Mollison, A. Delgado, and M. Andrews;

•a report relating to the Shahuindo mine entitled “Technical Report for the Shahuindo Mine, Cajabamba, Peru” dated effective November 30, 2022, by M. Wafforn, C. Emerson, and A. Delgado (the “Shahuindo Technical Report”);

•a report relating to the Jacobina mine entitled “NI 43-101 Technical Report for the Jacobina Gold Mine, Bahia State, Brazil” dated effective June 30, 2023, by M. Wafforn, C. Passos, A. Delgado, C. Iturralde, and M. Andrews (the “Jacobina Technical Report”);

•a report relating to the El Peñon mine entitled “NI 43-101 Technical Report for the El Peñon Gold-Silver Mine, Antofagasta Region, Chile” dated effective June 30, 2024, by M. Andrews, J. Avendaño, A. Delgado, C. Emerson, and C. Iturralde (the “El Peñon Technical Report”); and

•a report relating to the Escobal mine entitled “Escobal Mine Guatemala: NI 43-101 Feasibility Study, Southeastern Guatemala” dated effective November 5, 2014, by M3 Engineering & Technology Corp., with authors C. Huss, T. Drielick, D. Roth, P. Tietz, M. Blattman, and J. Caldwell.

Each of Martin Wafforn, P. Eng., Christopher Emerson, FAusIMM, Americo Delgado, P.Eng., Camila Passos, P.Geo., Carlos Iturralde, P.Eng., Peter Mollison, P.Eng., Matthew Andrews, FAusIMM, Jimmy Avendaño, Registered Member CMC, Conrad Huss, P.Eng., Thomas Drielick, P.Eng., Daniel Roth, P.Eng., Paul Tietz, C.P.G., Matthew Blattman, P.Eng., and Jack Caldwell, P.Eng. is or was, in relation to the Technical Reports, a “Qualified Person” as defined in NI 43-101. A “Qualified Person” means an engineer or geoscientist with a university degree, or equivalent accreditation, in an area of geoscience, or engineering, relating to mineral exploration or mining, with at least five years of experience in mineral exploration, mine development or operation or mineral project assessment, or any combination of these, that is relevant to his or her professional degree or area of practice, has experience relevant to the subject matter of the mineral project, and is a member in good standing of a professional association.

Unless otherwise indicated, all reserve and resource estimates included in this AIF and the documents incorporated by reference herein have been prepared in accordance with NI 43-101 and the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (the “CIM”) — CIM Definition Standards on Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves, adopted by the CIM Council, as amended (the “CIM Standards”). NI 43-101 is a rule developed by the Canadian Securities Administrators that establishes standards for all public disclosure an issuer makes of scientific and technical information concerning mineral projects. Canadian standards, including NI 43-101, differ significantly from the requirements of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), and reserve and resource information included herein may not be comparable to similar information disclosed by U.S. companies. In particular, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, this AIF and the documents incorporated by reference herein use the terms “measured resources,” “indicated resources” and “inferred resources” as defined in accordance with NI 43-101 and the CIM Standards. Mineralization described using these terms has a greater amount of uncertainty as to its existence and feasibility than mineralization that has been characterized as reserves. Accordingly, U.S. investors are cautioned not to assume that any measured mineral resources, indicated mineral resources, or inferred mineral resources that Pan American reports are or will be economically or legally mineable. Further, “inferred mineral resources” have a greater amount of uncertainty as to their existence and as to whether they can be mined legally or economically. Under Canadian securities laws, estimates of “inferred mineral resources” may not form the basis of feasibility or pre-feasibility studies, except in rare cases. While the above terms under the U.S. Rules are “substantially similar” to the standards under NI 43-101 and CIM Standards, there are differences in the definitions under the U.S. Rules and CIM Standards. Accordingly, there is no assurance any mineral reserves or mineral resources that Pan American may report as “proven mineral reserves”, “probable mineral reserves”, “measured mineral resources”, “indicated mineral resources” and “inferred mineral resources” under NI 43-101 would be the same had Pan American prepared the reserve or resource estimates under the standards adopted under the U.S. Rules.

Pan American is the continuing corporation of Pan American Energy Corporation, which was incorporated under the Company Act (British Columbia) on March 7, 1979. Pan American underwent two name changes, the last occurring on April 11, 1995, when the present name of Pan American Silver Corp. was adopted. Amendments to the constating documents of Pan American to that date had been limited to name changes and capital alterations. In May 2006, we amended our memorandum and articles in connection with Pan American’s required transition under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia). In January 2019, we obtained shareholder approval to increase our authorized share capital from 200,000,000 to 400,000,000 common shares without par value (“Common Shares”), and in May 2023, we obtained shareholder approval to increase our authorized share capital from 400,000,000 to 800,000,000 Common Shares.

As of the date of this AIF, Pan American’s head office is situated at 2100-733 Seymour Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, V6B 0S6 and our registered and records offices are situated at 1200 Waterfront Centre, 200 Burrard Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, V7X 1T2. Our website is www.panamericansilver.com.

Pan American’s authorized share capital consists of 800,000,000 Common Shares and there were 363,040,341 Common Shares issued and outstanding as at December 31, 2024. The holders of Common Shares are entitled to: (i) one vote per Common Share at all meetings of shareholders; (ii) receive dividends as and when declared by the directors of Pan American; and (iii) receive a pro rata share of the assets of Pan American available for distribution to the shareholders in the event of the liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of Pan American. There are no pre-emptive, conversion or redemption rights attached to the Common Shares.

In February 2019, Pan American acquired Tahoe (the “Tahoe Acquisition”) and issued 313,887,490 contingent value rights (each, a “CVR”) to Tahoe shareholders. Each CVR has a term of ten years and is exchangeable for 0.0497 of a Common Share upon first commercial shipment of concentrate following restart of operations at the Escobal mine. The CVRs are not entitled to any voting or dividend rights, and the CVRs do not represent any equity or ownership interest in Pan American or any of its affiliates.

In March 2023, Pan American. received an investment grade rating by both Moody’s Investors Service (“Moody’s) and S&P Global Ratings (“S&P Global”). With respect to Moody’s, Pan American was assigned a long-term issuer rating of Baa3, and S&P Global assigned a long-term issuer rating of BBB- to Pan American. The same rating was provided in respect of the Senior Notes, noting that Pan American is a guarantor of such Senior Notes. The ratings took into account a variety of matters relating to Pan American, including business risk, financial risk, and other matters in reaching its conclusions, including making certain assumptions. There have been no changes to the S&P Global and Moody’s credit ratings to date.

Moody’s long-term credit ratings are on a rating scale that ranges from Aaa to C, which represents the range from highest to lowest quality of such securities rated. Moody’s “Baa” rating is the fourth highest rating of nine rating categories. Obligations rated “Baa” are judged to be medium-grade and subject to moderate credit risk and as such may possess certain speculative characteristics. Moody’s appends numerical modifiers from 1 to 3 to its long-term ratings, which indicate where the obligation ranks within its generic rating category. The modifier 1 indicates that the obligation ranks in the higher end of its generic rating category, the modifier 2 indicates a midrange ranking and the modifier 3 indicates a ranking in the lower end of that generic rating category.

With respect to their initial rating of Pan American, Moody’s identified certain factors or considerations as giving rise to unusual risks associated with the credit rating of Pan American. These include: its smaller scale when compared to other investment grade peers; Pan American’s concentration in gold and silver and the related sensitivity to precious metal prices and price volatility; exposure to Latin America with elevated geopolitical risk; and the high-cost nature of the standalone gold mining operations. Moody’s further indicated that the rating could be negatively affected by a deterioration in operating performance or liquidity, if the adjusted debt to EBITDA ratio is sustained above 2.5x, if free cash flow remains negative, if the cash flow from operations less dividends to debt ratio is maintained below 30% and EBIT margin is below 10% on a standard basis.

S&P Global’s long-term credit ratings are on a rating scale that ranges from AAA to D, which represents the range from highest to lowest quality of such securities rated. S&P Global’s “BBB” rating is the fourth highest rating of 10 major rating categories. Ratings AAA to BBB- are considered investment grade, and BB+ to D are considered speculative grade. A “BBB” rating indicates that the obligor has adequate capacity to meet its financial commitments but is more subject to adverse economic conditions. S&P uses “+” or “–” designations to indicate the relative standing of securities within a particular rating category.

In providing its initial rating, S&P Global identified a number of factors and considerations that could have an impact Pan American’s rating. For example, S&P Global indicated that their rating could be negatively impacted if the adjusted debt to EBITDA ratio approaches 3x, noting that the following items could affect that ratio: lower-than-forecast precious metal prices; negative conclusion from the permitting process at Escobal resulting in the mine not likely returning to operations in 2024; and increased spend on capital expenditure projects, especially in a lower price environment. S&P Global also noted that operating cash flow generation of precious metal producers, such as Pan American, is sensitive to swings in underlying commodity prices and such swings would likely result in high-volatility cash flow and leverage metrics, and that operating cash flow generation is an important component in the ratings analysis for Pan American. It was further noted that Pan American’s relatively conservative approach to managing its balance sheet and financial policy were key credit considerations, and that environmental and social risks were moderately negative considerations.

Pan American pays an annual fee to Moody’s and S&P Global for the provision of a credit rating. No other fees were paid to Moody’s or S&P Global in 2024. Pan American subscribes to two additional platform services in connection with its investor relations activities that are provided by an S&P Global affiliated company, but these did not generate fees in 2024.

Ratings are intended to provide investors with an independent view of credit quality. A credit rating or a stability rating is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities and does not address the market price or suitability of a specific security for a particular investor. Credit ratings may not reflect the potential impact of all risks on the value of securities. In addition, real or anticipated changes in the rating assigned to a security will generally affect the market value of that security. Investors cannot be assured that a rating will remain in effect for any given period of time or that a rating will not be revised or withdrawn entirely by a rating agency in the future. Each rating should be evaluated independently of any other rating. The foregoing summary of considerations from the Moody’s and S&P Global ratings are not exhaustive and the reports from Moody’s and S&P Global should be consulted for their full analysis.

A significant portion of our business is carried on through various subsidiaries. The table below lists our significant subsidiaries, or in some cases subsidiaries that hold interests in significant subsidiaries, and their jurisdiction of organization, and the chart following shows the structure of our organization as it relates specifically to our significant operations and properties. Not all of our mines are material properties for the purposes of NI 43-101, and we do not consider all of our property interests to be significant to the Company. This information is provided as at December 31, 2024.

The following charts depict the corporate organizational structure of our significant subsidiaries as they relate to the country of our significant mineral properties, including our material properties, as at December 31, 2024, and identify the main property asset interests (including non-material properties, as applicable) held by the respective entities1.

    

Note:

1In some jurisdictions in which we operate, laws require that an entity must have more than one shareholder. For those jurisdictions, a nominal interest may be held by an affiliated entity and minority interests of less than 0.0001% held by affiliated entities are not shown in the charts. Percentages shown indicate ownership of common shares, preferred shares, and other voting interests, but do not include holdings of investment shares in Peru or other non-voting shares. Percentages are rounded (in most cases, to a maximum of four decimal places).

2Fomento Minero de Santa Cruz S.E. holds subordinated preferred shares in Estelar Resources S.A. equal to 5%.

3Urion Holdings (Malta) Ltd. holds a 5% interest in Pan American Silver Bolivia S.A.

We are principally engaged in the operation and development of, and exploration for, silver and gold producing properties and assets. Our principal products are silver and gold, although we also produce and sell zinc, lead, and copper. As at December 31, 2024, we operated mines and developed mining projects in Mexico, Peru, Canada, Argentina, Brazil, Chile and Bolivia, and had control over non-producing assets in each of those jurisdictions, in addition to Guatemala and the United States.

Pan American completed the Yamana Acquisition on March 31, 2023, acquiring four operating mines in Chile, Argentina and Brazil, as well as interests in exploration and development projects in Argentina, Chile, and Brazil, including a 56.25% interest in the Minera Agua Rica Alumbrera project (the “MARA Project”) in Argentina. As required under Part 8 of National Instrument 51-102 – Continuous Disclosure Obligations (“NI 51-102”), Pan American filed a Form 51-102F4 Business Acquisition Report dated June 9, 2023, in respect of the Yamana Acquisition. Pan American subsequently divested its interests in the MARA Project to Glencore International AG on September 20, 2023. Pan American also divested its interest in the Morococha mine in Peru, the Agua de la Falda project (and Jeronimo mine) in Chile in 2023.

In 2024, Pan American continued with its goal of divesting assets that do not align with its portfolio objectives. The Company completed the sale of the La Arena mine and La Arena II project in Peru in December 2024, and also divested the COSE and Joaquin mines that formerly comprised part of the larger Manantial Espejo mine in Argentina, which is now in closure.

The Escobal mine continues to be a non-operating asset as a result of the suspension of its mining license in July 2017, pending, among other things, the successful completion of an ILO 169 consultation process with Xinka communities. The consultation process is being led by Guatemala’s Ministry of Energy and Mines (the “Guatemala MEM”). With the change in the government of Guatemala in early 2024, advancement of the consultation process slowed, but remains ongoing. In addition to supporting the consultation process, we believe that it is important to engage with local communities and the Xinka people in an effort to build long-lasting, trusting relationships for the benefit of all stakeholders.

The following map depicts the location of our operating mines and certain of our exploration and non-operating projects as at December 31, 2024.

Our mission is to be the world’s premier silver producer with a reputation for excellence in discovery, engineering, innovation and sustainable development. We will continue to strengthen our position as one of the world’s leading primary silver mining companies by acquiring or discovering silver resources that have the potential to be developed economically and to add meaningfully to our production profile while, ideally, lowering consolidated unit costs of production.

The key objectives of our strategy are to:

In 2025, we expect to produce between 20.0 and 21.0 million ounces of silver and between 735,000 and 800,000 ounces of gold, with Silver Segment AISC of between $16.25 and $18.25 per ounce of silver and Gold Segment AISC of $1,525 and $1,625 per ounce of gold. The Escobal mine is assumed to remain on care and maintenance during 2025, as the Guatemala MEM conducts the court-mandated ILO 169 consultation process.

In 2025, we plan on incurring project capital expenditures of approximately $90.0 million to $100.0 million, relating primarily to: (i) expenditures at the La Colorada skarn project for infill and exploration drilling and engineering work, particularly in de-watering and geotechnical studies, (ii) investments at the La Colorada vein mine for exploration, mine infrastructure and mine equipment leases related to the expansion of the eastern zone of the mine to allow for future access to prospective higher grade zones, (iii) investments at Timmins for the construction of a new tailings storage facility and exploration activities at satellite deposits, (iv) expenditures at Huaron related to settling final accounts payable for the construction of the filtration plant and storage facility for filter tailings, as well as lease payments for the tailings filtration plant equipment and (iv) investments at Jacobina to advance on a mine and plant optimization study that will evaluate alternative mining methods and production rates with the aim of maximizing the mine's long-term economics and sustainability.

We expect to spend approximately $270.0 to $285.0 million on sustaining capital in 2025, largely on waste dumps, leach pads and tailings storage facilities, exploration, site infrastructure and mine equipment overhauls and replacements.

Exploration and project development expense in 2025 is expected to total approximately $15.0 million to $20.0 million for regional exploration, property holding costs and project development expenses, including 25,000 metres of drilling. Expenditures relating to near-mine exploration and mineral reserve replacement are included in sustaining and project capital estimates and are anticipated to total: (i) $62.0 million for 340,000 metres of near-mine exploration drilling for mineral reserve replacement; and (ii) $18 million for 60,000 meters of project capital drilling at Timmins (Whitney/ Samson), La Colorada skarn, and La Colorada East veins expansion.

Estimated reclamation expenditures in 2025 are expected to be between $28.0 million to $34.5 million at Dolores, Alamo Dorado, Jacobina, and other properties. In 2025, we also expect to spend $20.5 million to $24.0 million for care and maintenance at Escobal, Manantial Espejo, and Navidad.

Annual corporate general and administrative expense, including share-based compensation, is forecast to be between $80.0 million and $85.0 million in 2025.
