AS AT SEPTEMBER 21, 2015LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS

ANNUAL GENERAL<>, 2017

Dear shareholders of Scandium International Mining Corp.:

The board of directors of Scandium Interinational Mining Corp. (“Scandium”, “we”, “our” or “us”) cordially invites you to attend the special meeting (the “Meeting”) of holders of common shares to be held at <> a.m. (Vancouver Time) on <>, 2017 at Suite 1200 – 750 West Pender Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, V6C 2T8.

At the Meeting, shareholders will be asked to approve the issuance of 57,371,565 of our common shares to Scandium Investments LLC (“SIL”) in exchange for SIL’s 20% interest in EMC Metals Australia Pty Ltd. (“EMC-A”). As a result of the exchange transaction, we will increase our ownership of EMC-A from 80% to 100%. EMC-A holds our Nyngan Scandium project and our Honeybugle scandium property, both located in New South Wales, Australia.

The transaction is subject to the terms and conditions of a Share Exchange Agreement dated June 30, 2017 entered into between Scandium, SIL and EMC-A (the “Agreement”).

Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, on closing we will also issue to SIL common shares having an aggregate value equal to US$420,000 determined using the market price per share as at the first trading day following the Meeting. The additional common shares represent an adjustment payment due to the fact that our 80% interest in EMC-A is subject to a 0.7% gross revenue royalty interest, whereas SIL’s 20% interest is not encumbered by that royalty. The Agreement also provides that on closing of the Transaction, SIL will also be entitled to nominate two directors to the Company’s board of directors.

Management and the Board of Scandium strongly support the transaction with SIL. Establishing Scandium as the owner of 100% of EMC-A provides us with significant advantages in advancing the Nyngan Scandium project, including the following key benefits:

Pursuant to the requirements of the Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX”), the Transaction must be approved by a majority of the votes cast by the shareholders of Scandium voting in person or by proxy at the Meeting, excluding any votes held by SIL and its principal owners. The Transaction is subject to certain other customary conditions set forth in the Agreement. Closing of the Transaction is expected to occur approximately 2 business days after all conditions have been satisfied.

The Board has concluded that the Transaction is in the best interests of Scandium. The Board recommends that the shareholders vote FOR the Transaction.

A notice of special meeting, proxy statement and management information circular (“Proxy Statement”), and a form of proxy (“Proxy”) or voting instruction form (“VIF”) accompany this letter. The Proxy Statement contains a description of the Transaction and other information to assist you in considering the matters to be voted upon. We encourage you to carefully consider the information in this Proxy Statement, and to consult your financial, legal or other professional advisors if you require assistance.

- i -


Your vote is important, regardless of the number of Scandium common shares you own. If you are a registered shareholder, meaning that your name appears on the records of Scandium as the registered holder of shares (a “Registered Shareholder”), you may wish to vote by proxy whether or not you attend the Meeting in person. Registered Shareholders electing to submit a proxy may do so by completing the enclosed Proxy and returning it to the Company’s transfer agent, Computershare Investor Services Inc. (“Computershare”), in accordance with the instructions on the Proxy. You should ensure that the Proxy is received by Computershare at least 48 hours (excluding Saturdays, Sundays and holidays) before the Meeting or the adjournment thereof at which the Proxy is to be used.

If you are a non-registered or beneficial shareholder, meaning your Shares are not registered in your own name but are registered in the name of a broker, bank or other intermediary (a “Beneficial Shareholder”), follow the instructions provided by your broker or other intermediary to vote your Shares. You may also consult the section in the Proxy Statement entitled “Proxy Voting – Beneficial Shareholders” for more detailed information.

If you have any questions or need assistance with the completion and delivery of your Proxy or VIF, please contact our Investor Relations department by telephone at (775) 355-9500, or by email atinfo@scandiummining.com.

On behalf of Scandium, I would like to thank all our shareholders for their ongoing support. We are committed to the success of this Transaction and believe it will put Scandium in a better position to meet the evolving needs of our business and shareholders.

Yours truly,

/s/ George Putnam

INTEREST OF CERTAIN PERSONS IN MATTERS TO BE ACTED UPON

Except as disclosed herein, no Person has any material interest, direct or indirect, by way of beneficial ownership of securities or otherwise, in matters to be acted upon at the Meeting other than the election of directors and the appointment of auditors and as set out herein. For the purpose of this paragraph, “Person” shall include each person: (a) who has been a director, senior officer or insider of the Company at any time since the commencement of the Company’s last fiscal year; (b) who is a proposed nominee for election as a director of the Company; or (c) who is an associate or affiliate of a person included in subparagraphs (a) or (b).

PROPOSAL 1
ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

The Board of Directors proposes to fix the number of directors at seven and that the following seven nominees be elected as directors at the Meeting, each of whom will hold office until the expiration of their term or until his or her successor shall have been duly appointed or elected and qualified: George Putnam, William Harris, Barry Davies, Willem Duyvesteyn, Warren Davis, James Rothwell, and Andrew Greig.

Unless otherwise instructed, it is the intention of the persons named as proxies on the accompanying proxy card to vote shares represented by properly executed proxies for the election of such nominees. Although the Board of Directors anticipates that the seven nominees will be available to serve as directors of SCY, if any of them should be unwilling or unable to serve, it is intended that the proxies will be voted for the election of such substitute nominee or nominees as may be designated by the Board of Directors.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE "FOR" FIXING THE TOTAL NUMBER OF DIRECTORS AT SEVEN AND “FOR” THE ELECTION OF EACH OF THE SEVEN NOMINEES.

As part of its ongoing review of corporate governance policies, on September 2, 2014, the Board adopted a policy providing that in an uncontested election of directors, any nominee who receives a greater number of votes “withheld” than votes “for” will tender his or her resignation to the Chairman of the Board promptly following the shareholders’ meeting. The Board will consider the offer of resignation and will make a decision whether or not to accept it. In considering whether or not to accept the resignation, the Board will consider all factors deemed relevant by the members of the Board. The Board will be expected to accept the resignation except in situations where the considerations would warrant the applicable director continuing to serve on the Board. The Board will make its final decision and announce it in a press release within 90 days following the shareholders’ meeting. A director who tenders his or her resignation pursuant to this policy will not participate in any meeting of the Board at which the resignation is considered.

The following table sets out the names of the nominees, their positions and offices in the Company, principal occupations, the period of time that they have been directors of the Company, and the number of shares of the Company which each beneficially owns or over which control or direction is exercised.

PROPOSAL:
APPROVAL OF SHARE ISSUANCE TO SIL

Summary of Transaction

At the Meeting, Shareholders will be asked to approve the issuance of Common Shares to SIL as described herein.

Pursuant to the Share Exchange Agreement, the Company has agreed to acquire SIL’s 20% interest in EMC-A in exchange will for the issuance to SIL of 57,371,565 Common Shares representing 25% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares as at the close of business on June 14, 2017.

Scandium will also issue to SIL Common Shares equal in value to the Canadian dollar equivalent of US$420,000, determined using the closing price of the Common Shares on the TSX as at the close of trading on the day following the Meeting (the “Share Exchange” or the “Transaction”). The issuance of the additional Common Shares represents an adjustment payment due to the fact that the Company’s 80% interest in EMC-A is subject to a 0.7% gross revenue royalty interest, whereas SIL’s 20% interest is not encumbered by that royalty.

6


Pursuant to the Agreement, SIL will be entitled to nominate two directors to Board in accordance with the terms of a Nomination Rights Agreement to be entered into between SIL and the Company on closing of the Transaction. Under the Nomination Rights Agreement, SIL may nominate two persons to serve as directors on the Board for so long as SIL holds at least 15% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares, and one director for so long as SIL holds at least 5% but less than 15% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares.

The Share Exchange will increase the Company’s ownership of EMC-A from 80% to 100%. The Transaction will further align SIL’s interests with those of the Company and streamline the management and development of the Projects owned by EMC-A.

Parties to the Share Exchange Agreement

The parties to the Agreement are Scandium, SIL and EMC-A. A summary of each company is provided below.

Scandium is incorporated under the laws of the Province of British Columbia, Canada, and has its shares listed for trading on the Toronto Stock Exchange. Scandium focuses on specialty metals resources and project development, specifically scandium, with its primary holdings currently being 80% of the outstanding shares of EMC-A.

EMC-A is an Australian company that is owned 80% by Scandium and 20% by SIL. EMC-A holds a 100% interest in the Nyngan Scandium project and the Honeybugle Scandium property, both located in New South Wales, Australia (collectively, the “Projects”) and is seeking to develop the Nyngan Scandium project in the near term.

SIL is a limited liability company incorporated in Nevada, USA. The managing members of SIL are Peter B. Evensen and Jon C. Evensen. SIL has been a joint investment partner of the Company since 2014 when SIL and Scandium entered into a loan agreement for the purpose of extinguishing the Company’s outstanding debt and securing EMC-A’s 100% ownership of the Nyngan Project. The loan arrangement between the Company and SIL is described in greater detail underThe Transaction below. SIL deals at arm’s length to the Company. The current directors and officers of Scandium do not hold any interest in SIL.

The Transaction

The Share Exchange was contemplated and outlined in the loan and option agreements entered into between Scandium and SIL in June 2014 (collectively, the “Option Agreement”). Under the Option Agreement, the Company secured a US$2,500,000 loan facility from SIL (the “Loan”). The proceeds of the Loan were used to pay obligations related to a negotiated settlement arrangement that secured Scandium’s ownership of the Nyngan Project.

Under the terms of the Option Agreement, SIL had the option of converting the Loan to a 20% joint venture interest in EMC-A (the “JV Option”). The Option Agreement contained a further provision allowing the Company to deem the JV Option to have been exercised by SIL if as of December 10, 2015, the Company had not defaulted on its Loan payments, the Loan had not been repaid, SIL had not exercised its option to purchase the Property and the Company had received a minimum of US$3,000,000 from equity financing (the “JV Option Conditions”). On March 10, 2016, Scandium gave notice to SIL that the JV Option Conditions were satisfied and the Company was exercising its right to deem the JV Option exercised by SIL.

As per the terms of the JV Option, SIL retained the right to sell its 20% interest in EMC-A to Scandium in exchange for Common Shares once EMC-A filed a feasibility study and obtained a mining license for either or both of the Properties (the “Equity Option”). The conditions for the Equity Option were met on May 3, 2017, and SIL provided Scandium with notice that it would exercise its right under the Equity Option to exchange its interest in EMC-A for Common Shares of Scandium.

On June 14, 2017, Scandium, EMC-A and SIL signed a Memorandum of Understanding regarding SIL’s election to exchange its interest in EMC-A for Common Shares (the “MOU”).

The MOU was subsequently replaced by the Share Exchange Agreement dated June 30, 2017. The Share Exchange Agreement provides that on closing of the Transaction the following will occur:

About the Nyngan Scandium Project and the Honeybugle Scandium Property

The Company’s compensation policiesNyngan Scandium Project is located approximately 500 kilometers northwest of Sydney, Australia. Mineral exploration at the site has defined a measured and programs are designedindicated resource significantly larger (7X) than the currently planned 20 year mine life outlined in the feasibility study. In May 2016, the Company issued a National Instrument (NI 43-101) Technical Report entitled “Feasibility Study - Nyngan Scandium Project” (the “Feasibility Study”). The Feasibility Study was independently prepared, with Lycopodium Limited leading the feasibility study team from their Brisbane, Australia office. The Feasibility Study confirms the commercial viability of both the resource and the process for recovering scandium, as configured, for the Nyngan Project.

The Honeybugle Scandium Project is located approximately 24 kilometers west-southwest from the Nyngan Project. EMC-A holds a 100% interest in an exploration license (EL 7977) covering a 34.7 square kilometers of the Honeybugle geologic complex. The Honeybugle Project property includes four (4) distinct magnetic anomalies: Seaford, Woodlong, Yarran Park and Mallee Valley. A first stage drill program focused on the Seaford area and was completed in April 2014. Although the Honeybugle Project is in the early stages of development, preliminary drilling results in Seaford were similar to the Nyngan Project property, and metallurgy is expected to be competitive with similar mining companies and to recognize and reward executive performance consistent withas well.

Further information on the successProjects, including a number of risk factors associated therewith, are set forth in the Company’s 2017 Form 10-K.

Report on Executive Compensation

This report on executive compensation has been authorized by the Compensation Committee. The Board assumes responsibility for reviewing and monitoring the long-range compensation strategy for the senior management of the Company although the Compensation Committee guides it in this role. The Board determines the type and amount of compensation for the President and CEO. The Board also reviews the compensation of the Company’s senior executives. The Compensation Committee has not considered the implications of the risks associated with the Company’s compensation policies and practices.

The Compensation Committee makes the final determination on compensation for directors and senior executives of the Company. The Compensation Committee will take recommendations from the CEO as to what appropriate levels of compensation should be for senior executives. The Compensation Committee does not delegate the authority to determine compensation for directors and senior officers to other persons.

Philosophy and Objectives

The compensation program for the senior management of the Company is designed to ensure that the level and form of compensation achieves certain objectives, including:

(a)

attracting and retaining talented, qualified and effective executives;

(b)

motivating the short and long-term performance of these executives; and

(c)

better aligning their interests with those of the Company’s shareholders.

In compensating its senior management, the Company has employed a combination of base salary and equity participation through its stock option plan. The Company’s NEOs, as that term is defined in Form 51-102F6, and directors are not permitted to purchase financial instruments, including, for greater certainty, prepaid variable forward contracts, equity swaps, collars or units of exchange funds, that are designed to hedge or offset a decrease in market value of equity securities granted as compensation or held, directly or indirectly, by the NEO or director.

Elements of the Compensation Program

The significant elements of compensation awarded to the Named Executive Officers (as defined below) are a cash salary and stock options. The Company does not presently have a long-term incentive plan for its Named Executive Officers. There is no policy or target regarding allocation between cash and non-cash elements of the Company’s compensation program. The Compensation Committee reviews annually the total compensation package of each of the Company’s executives on an individual basis, against the backdrop of the compensation goals and objectives described above, and makes recommendations to the Board concerning the individual components of their compensation.

Cash Salary

As a general rule, the Company seeks to offer its Named Executive Officers a compensation package that is in line with that offered by other companies in our industry, and as an immediate means of rewarding the Named Executive Officers for efforts expended on behalf of the Company.

Equity Participation

The Company believes that encouraging its executives and employees to become shareholders is the best way of aligning their interests with those of its shareholders. Equity participation is accomplished through the Company’s stock option plan. Stock options are granted to senior executives taking into account a number of factors, including the amount and term of options previously granted, base salary and bonuses and competitive factors. Options are generally granted to senior executives which vest on terms established by the Board.

BOARD OF DIRECTORS MEETINGS AND COMMITTEES

During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014, the Board of Directors held five directors’ meetings. All other matters which required Board approval were consented to in writing by all of the Company’s directors.

The Board of Directors has established an Audit Committee and a Compensation Committee. The Board of Directors has no standing nominating committee. Each of the Audit and Compensation Committees is responsible to the full Board of Directors. The functions performed by these committees are summarized below:

Audit Committee. The Board has an Audit Committee composed of four directors, William Harris (Chair), Barry Davies, Warren Davis, and James Rothwell. All members of the Audit Committee are “independent” and “financially literate” in accordance with Multilateral Instrument 52-110Audit Committees (“NI 52-110”). The Audit Committee reviews all financial statements on a consolidated basis with those of EMC-A. The Company currently conducts no operations other than those related to ownership and operation of EMC-A. As a result, the Company prior to their publication, reviews audits or communications, recommends the appointment of independent auditors, reviews and approves the professional services to be rendered by independent auditors and reviews fees for audit services. The Audit Committee meets both separately with auditors (without management present) as well as with management present. The meetings with the auditors discuss the various aspects of the Company’s financial presentation in the areas of audit risk and Canadian generally accepted accounting principles. Specifically, the audit committee has:

12


(a)

reviewed and discussed the audited financial statements with management;

(b)

discussed with the independent auditors the matters required to be discussed by the statement on Auditing Standards No. 61, as amended; and

(c)

received the written disclosures and the letter from the independent accountant required by applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding the independent accountant’s communications with the Audit Committee concerning independence, and has discussed with the independent accountant the independent accountant’s independence.

A copy of the text of the Company’s audit committee charter can be found on the Company’s website at www.scandiummining.com.

Based on the foregoing review and discussions, the audit committee recommend to the Board that the audited financial statements should be included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 filed with the SEC.

Submitted by the Audit Committee.
William Harris, Chair
Barry Davies, Member
Warren Davis, Member
James Rothwell, Member

Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee reviews and approves the compensation of SCY’s officers, reviews and administers SCY’s stock option plan and makes recommendations to the Board of Directors regarding such matters. The members of the Compensation Committee are William Harris, Warren Davis, Barry Davies, and James Rothwell. Each of the Compensation Committee members is an independent director. The Board of Directors has adopted a written charter for the Compensation Committee, a copy of which can be found on the Company’s website at www.scandiumminingcom.

Nominating Committee. No Nominating Committee has been appointed. Nominations of directors are made by the Board of Directors. The Board is of the view that providing separate financial statements for EMC-A would offer no new meaningful information to the present management structure does not warrant the appointment of a Nominating Committee.

In its deliberations for selecting candidates for nominees as director, the Board considers the candidate’s knowledge of the mineral exploration industry and involvement in community, business and civic affairs. Any nominee for director made by the Board must be highly qualified with regard to some or all these attributes. In searching for qualified director candidates to fill vacancies on the Board, the Board solicits its current Board of Directors for names of potentially qualified candidates. The Board would then consider the potential pool of director candidates, select the candidate the Board believes best meets the then-current needs of the Board, and conduct a thorough investigation of the proposed candidate’s background to ensure there is no past history, potential conflict of interest or regulatory issue that would cause the candidate not to be qualified to serve as a director of SCY. Additionally, the Board annually reviews the Board’s size, structure, composition and functioning, to ensure an appropriate blend and balance of diverse skills and experience.

MANAGEMENT CONTRACTS

The Company is not a party to a management contract with anyone other than directors or Named Executive Officersshareholders of the Company.

INTEREST OF INFORMED PERSONS IN MATERIAL TRANSACTIONS

Except as disclosed herein, since the commencement of the Company’s most recently completed financial year, no informed person of the Company, nominee for director or any associate or affiliate of an informed person or nominee, had any material interest, direct or indirect, in any transaction or any proposed transaction which has materially affected or would materially affect the Company or any of its subsidiaries.

An “informed person” means: (a) a director or executive officer of the Company; (b) a director or executive officer of a person or company that is itself an informed person or subsidiary of the Company; (c) any person or company who beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, voting securities of the company or who exercises control or director over voting securities of the Company or a combination of both carrying more than 10% of the voting rights other than voting securities held by the person or company as underwriter in the course of a distribution; and (d) the Company itself, if and for so long as it has purchased, redeemed or otherwise acquired any of its shares.

REPORT OF CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

The British Columbia Securities Commission has issued guidelines on corporate governance disclosure for non-venture issuers as set out in National Instrument 58-101 (the “Policy”). The Policy addresses matters relating to constitution and independence of directors, the functions to be performed by the directors of a company and their committees and effectiveness and evaluation of proposed corporate governance guidelines and best practices specified by the Canadian securities regulators. The Company’s approach to corporate governance in the context of the specific issues outlined in Form 58-101F1 is set out below.

Board of Directors

The Board currently consists of seven directors, and it is proposed that all seven be nominated at the Meeting. Of the seven proposed directors, a majority of individuals qualify as independent directors. A director is independent if he or she has no direct or indirect “material relationship” with the Company. A “material relationship” is a relationship which could, in the view of the Board, be reasonably expected to interfere with the exercise of the director’s independent judgment. The following table outlines the Company’s independent and non-independent directors, and the basis for a determination that a director is non-independent:

Name of DirectorIndependent/Non-Independent
George PutnamNon-Independent (serves as President and CEO of the Company)
William HarrisIndependent (serves as Chairman of the Company)
Barry DaviesIndependent
Willem DuyvesteynNon-Independent (holds more than 10% of the Company’s outstanding shares)
Warren DavisIndependent
James RothwellIndependent
Andrew GreigIndependent

William Harris, an independent director, is the Chairman of the Board. Mr. Harris’ primary roles as Chairman are to chair all meetings of the Board and to manage the affairs of the Board, including ensuring the Board is organized properly, functions effectively and meets its obligations and responsibilities. The Chairman’s responsibilities include, among other things, ensuring effective relations and communications among Board members.

The Board holds meetings as considered appropriate to deal with the matters arising from developments in the business and affairs of the Company from time to time. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014, the Board held five meetings. In addition to the business conducted at such meetings, various other matters were approved by written resolution signed by all members of the Board.

The attendance record for each director of the Company during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014 was as follows:

Name of DirectorMeetings Attended

The attendance record for each member of the Compensation Committee during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014 was as follows:

Name of DirectorMeetings Attended
William Harris1 of 1
Barry Davies1 of 1
Warren Davis1 of 1

The Board’s policy is to hold independent directors’ meetings as deemed necessary. At these independent directors’ meetings, non-independent and members of management are not in attendance. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014, the independent directors held no meetings.

The Board does not have a policy regarding a Board members’ attendance at annual meetings of shareholders. One director attended the Company’s 2014 annual meeting of shareholders.

Certain directors of the Company are also presently directors of other issuers that are reporting issuers in Canada or elsewhere. Information as to such other directorships is set out below:

Board Mandate

The Board has not adopted a written mandate but understands that its role is to (i) assume responsibility for the overall stewardship and development of the Company and monitoring of its business decisions, (ii) identify the principal risks and opportunities of the Company’s business and ensuring the implementation of appropriate systems to manage these risks, (iii) ethically manage the Company and perform succession planning, including appointing, training and monitoring of senior management and directors, (iv) implement a communication policy for the Company, and (v) ensure the integrity of the Company’s internal financial controls and management information systems.

Board Leadership Structure

The Board does not have an express policy regarding the separation of the roles of the Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer, as the Board believes that it is in the best interests of the Company to make that determination based on the position and direction of the Company and the membership of the Board. The Board has reviewed the Company’s current Board leadership structure. George Putnam has been the Company’s Chief Executive Officer since May 2010, while William Harris has been the Company’s Chairman of the Board since April 2010. In light of the composition of the Board, the Company’s size, the nature of the Company’s business, the regulatory framework under which the Company operates, the Company’s shareholder base, the Company’s peer group and other relevant factors, the Board believes that the current leadership structure is appropriate. Mr. Putnam and Mr. Harris bring complimentary attributes to the Company’s business operations and strategic plans and generally are focused on somewhat different aspects of the Company’s operations.

15


The Company does not have a lead independent director. Given the size of the Board, the Board believes that the presence of five independent directors out of the seven directors currently on the Board, is sufficient independent oversight of the Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer. The independent directors work well together in the current Board structure and the Board does not believe that selecting a lead independent director would add significant benefits to the Board oversight role.

Also, the Board does not have a formal policy with respect to the consideration of diversity when assessing directors and director candidates, but considers diversity as part of its overall assessment of the Board’s functions and needs.

Board’s Role in Risk Oversight

The understanding, identification and management of risk are essential elements for the successful management of the Company. Management is charged with the day-to-day management of the risks the Company faces. However, the Board, directly and indirectly through its committees, is actively involved in the oversight of the Company’s risk management policies. The Board is charged with overseeing enterprise risk management, generally, and with reviewing and discussing with management the Company’s major risk exposure (whether financial, operating or otherwise) and the steps management has taken to monitor, control and manage these exposures. Additionally, the Compensation Committee oversees the Company’s compensation policies generally, in part to determine whether or not they create risks that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company.

Position Descriptions

To date, the Board has not adopted written position descriptions for the Chairman, the chair of each Committee of the Board, or of the CEO. Currently, William Harris serves as the independent Chairman of the Board. The prime responsibility of the Chairman of the Board is to provide leadership to the Board and to enhance Board effectiveness.

Orientation and Continuing Education

When new directors are appointed, they receive orientation on the Company’s business, current projects and industry and on the responsibilities of directors. With respect to continuing education, Board meetings may include presentations by the Company’s management and employees to give the directors additional insight into the Company’s business.

Ethical Business Conduct

The Board has adopted a written code of conduct applicable to officers and directors of the Company, entitled “Code of Ethics, Trading Restrictions and Whistleblowing”. A copy of this code of conduct is available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.

Other than adoption of the code of conduct, the Board does not take any formal measures to encourage and promote a culture of ethical business conduct. The Board is of the view that thatthere will be no material adverse tax consequences to the fiduciary duties placed on individual directors byCompany resulting from the Company’s governing corporate legislationShare Exchange.

Conditions and the common law, together with the corporate statutory restrictions on an individual director’s participation in decisionsRisk

Shareholders should carefully consider all of the Boardinformation disclosed in whichthis Proxy Statement, including the director has an interest,risks and uncertainties described below, prior to voting on the matters being put before them at the Meeting. While the risks and uncertainties described below are sufficient to ensurethose that the Board operates independently of management and in the best interests of the Company.

Nomination of Directors

The Board annually evaluates the size of the Board and persons as nominees for the position of director of the Company. The Board’s process for nomination of candidates has been an informal processCompany believes to date but one in which the entire Board is involved. The Board itself reviews candidates for the Board and its executive officers and reviews succession planning on a regular basis.

16


Compensation

The Board has established a Compensation Committee, comprised of four independent directors, William Harris, Barry Davies, Warren Davis, and James Rothwell. The function of the Compensation Committee is to review, on an annual basis, the compensation paidbe material to the Company’s executive officers and to the directors, and to make recommendations on compensation to the Board. In addition, the Committee reviews the compensation plans for the Company’s non-executive staff. The process adoptedCompany with respect to the review of compensation forTransaction, it is possible that other risks and uncertainties affecting the Company’s directorsbusiness will arise or become material in the future. In addition, shareholders should review the risk factors disclosed in the Company’s latest Form 10-K filed with the Securities and senior officersExchange Commission on March 16, 2017, which are incorporated by reference into this Proxy Statement.

Our ability to consummate the Share Exchange Transaction is set out undersubject to a number of conditions precedents, certain of which are outside the heading “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” above.

Other Board Committees

The Board has no committees other than the Compensation Committee and the Audit Committee.

Assessments

The Board annually, and at such other times as it deems appropriate, reviews the performance and effectivenesscontrol of the Board, the directors and its committees to determine whether changes in size, personnel or responsibilities are warranted. To assist in its review, the Board conducts informal surveysCompany, including receipt of its directors and receives reports from each committee respecting its own effectiveness.

Shareholder Communications

The Company values the views of its shareholders (current and future shareholders, employees and others). Any shareholder who wishes to communicate with the Board may do so in writing, by telephone or fax or by email to the Company as follows:

AUDIT COMMITTEE

Pursuant to National Instrument 52-110Audit Committees of the Canadian Securities Administrators, the Company is required to disclose annually in its Information Circular certain information concerning the constitution of its audit committee and its relationship with its independent auditor, as set forth in the following:

The primary function of the audit committee (the “Committee”) is to assist the board of directors in fulfilling its financial oversight responsibilities by reviewing (a) the financial reports and other financial information provided by the Company to regulatory authorities and shareholders; (b) the systems for internal corporate controls which have been established by the Board and management; and (c) overseeing the Company’s financial reporting processes generally. In meeting these responsibilities the Committee monitors the financial reporting process and internal control system; reviews and appraises the work of external auditors and provides an avenue of communication between the external auditors, senior management and the company’s Board.

PROPOSAL 2
RATIFICATION OF APPOINTMENT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS

Davidson & Company LLP (“Davidson”), Chartered Accountants, was appointed as SCY’s independent auditors in January 2008. Davidson served as SCY’s independent auditors for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014, and has been appointed by the Board to continue as SCY’s independent auditor for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2015, and until the next annual general meeting of shareholders.

Representatives of Davidson are expected to be present at the Meeting, will have the opportunity to make a statement if they desire to do so, and are expected to be available to respond to appropriate questions from shareholders.

Although the appointment of Davidson is not required to be submitted to a vote of shareholders, the Board believes it appropriate as a matter of policy to request that shareholders ratify the appointment of the independent auditors for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2015. In the event a majority of the votes cast at the Meeting are not voted in favor of ratification, the adverse vote will be considered as a direction to the Board to select other auditors for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2015.

Section 10A)i) of the Exchange Act prohibits the Company’s independent auditor from performing audit services for the Company as well as any services not considered to be “audit services” unless such services are pre-approved by the Audit Committee of the Board, or unless the services meet certainde minimis standards.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE “FOR” RATIFICATION OF THE APPOINTMENT OF DAVIDSON & COMPANY LLP, CHARTERED ACCOUNTANTS AS SCY'S INDEPENDENT AUDITORS FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDING DECEMBER 31, 2015 AND THE AUTHORIZATION OF THE DIRECTORS TO FIX THEIR REMUNERATION.

These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results or events to differ materially from those anticipated in such Forward-Looking Statements. The Company believes the expectations reflected in those Forward-Looking Statements are reasonable, but no assurance can be given that these expectations will prove to be correct. Such Forward-Looking Statements included in this Proxy Statement should not be unduly relied upon. These Forward-Looking Statements speak only as of the date of this Proxy Statement.

In particular, this Proxy Statement includes Forward-Looking Statements pertaining to the following:

completion of the Share Exchange Transaction as contemplated under the Share Exchange Agreement and the Option Agreement;

business strategy, strength and focus;

receipt of all regulatory, shareholder and other approvals for the Transaction;

development and construction activities planned for the Projects;

future commodity prices;
future development plans for the Projects unfolding as currently envisioned;
geological estimates in respect of mineral resources and reserves on the Projects;
the Company’s ability to obtain qualified staff and equipment in a timely and cost-efficient manner;
the legal and regulatory framework governing mining, royalties, taxes and environmental matters in Australia;
future sources of funding, the Company’s ability to obtain financing, and its future debt levels; and
future exchange rates of Canadian and U.S. currencies being consistent with expectations.

Actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these Forward-Looking Statements as a result of the risk factors set forth below and elsewhere in this Proxy Statement, including, without limitation, risk and uncertainties regarding:

the speculative nature of exploration, appraisal and development of mineral properties;

conditions required for the closing of the Transaction;

Readers are cautioned that the foregoing lists of factors are not exhaustive. The material factors and assumptions used in developing the Forward-Looking Statements are based on, among other things, the Company’s planned capital expenditure program, estimated recovery success rates and other prospects. Due to the nature of the mining industry, budgets are regularly reviewed in light of the success of the expenditures and other opportunities, which may become available to the Company. Accordingly, while the Company anticipates that it will have the ability to spend the funds available to it as stated in this Proxy Statement, there may be circumstances where, for sound business reasons, a reallocation of funds may be prudent or necessary.

Except as required under applicable securities laws, the Company does not undertake or assume any obligation to publicly update or revise any Forward-Looking Statements.

PROPOSALS OF SHAREHOLDERS

Meeting Materials sent to Beneficial Owners who have not waived the right to receive Meeting Materials are accompanied by a Voting Instruction Form (“VIF”). This form is instead of a proxy. By returning the VIF in accordance with the instructions noted on it, a Non-Registered Holder is able to instruct the Registered Shareholder how to vote on behalf of the Non-Registered Shareholder. VIF’s, whether provided by the Company or by an Intermediary, should be completed and returned in accordance with the specific instructions noted on the VIF.

In either case, the purpose of this procedure is to permit Non-Registered Holders to direct the voting of the shares which they beneficially own.Non-Registered Holders receiving a VIF cannot use that form to vote common shares directly at the Meeting - Non-Registered Holders should carefully follow the instructions set out in the VIF including those regarding when and where the VIF is to be delivered.Should a Non-Registered Holder who receives a VIF wish to attend the Meeting or have someone else attend on his/her behalf, the Non-Registered holder may request a legal proxy as set forth in the VIF, which will grant the Non-Registered Holder or his/her nominee the right to attend and vote at the Meeting.

After this date, any shareholder proposal will be considered untimely. If the Company changes the date of next year’s annual meeting by more than thirty days from the date of this year’s meting,meeting, then the deadline is a reasonable time before the Company begins to print and mail its proxy materials.
