AGNICO EAGLE MINES LIMITED

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

(Prepared in accordance with United States GAAP)
for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013

        This Management's Discussion and Analysis ("MD&A") dated August 9, 2013 of Agnico Eagle Mines Limited ("Agnico Eagle" or the "Company") should be read in conjunction with the Company's interim unaudited consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles ("US GAAP"). This MD&A should also be read in conjunction with the MD&A and consolidated financial statements included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2012 (the "Form 20-F"). The interim unaudited consolidated financial statements and MD&A are presented in United States dollars ("US dollars", "$" or "US$") and all units of measurement are expressed in metric, unless otherwise specified. Certain information in this MD&A is presented in Canadian dollars ("C$") or European Union euros ("Euro" or "€"). Additional information relating to the Company, including critical accounting estimates and risk factors in the Form 20-F, is available on the Canadian Securities Administrators' (the "CSA") SEDAR website at www.sedar.com.

Business Overview

        Agnico Eagle is a gold mining company with mining operations in Canada, Mexico and Finland, and exploration activities in Canada, Europe, Latin America and the United States. Agnico Eagle's LaRonde mine in Quebec is one of Canada's largest operating gold mines by gold reserves and has served as the Company's foundation for domestic and international expansion. Agnico Eagle earns a significant proportion of its revenue and cash flow from the production and sale of gold in both dore bar and concentrate form. The remainder of revenue and cash flow is generated by the production and sale of byproduct metals, including silver, zinc, copper and lead. Throughout its 41-year history, Agnico Eagle's policy has been not to sell forward its future gold production.

        Over the past four years, Agnico Eagle has evolved from operating two gold mines in Canada to being an international gold mining company operating five gold mines in the second quarter of 2013. Each mine is located in what the Company believes to be a politically stable country that is supportive of the mining industry. The political stability of the regions in which Agnico Eagle operates helps to provide confidence in its current and future prospects and profitability. This is important for Agnico Eagle as it believes that many of its new mines and recently acquired mining projects have long-term mining potential.

Financial and Operating Results

Balance Sheet Review

        Total assets at June 30, 2013 of $5,250.8 million were comparable with December 31, 2012 total assets of $5,255.8 million. Cash and cash equivalents amounted to $107.4 million at June 30, 2013, down from $298.1 million at December 31, 2012 due primarily to lower average realized gold prices during the period. Available-for-sale securities increased from $44.7 million at December 31, 2012 to $68.8 million at June 30, 2013 due primarily to $45.1 million in new investments, offset partially by $28.3 million in impairments recorded during the period. Long-term ore in stockpile declined by 32.5% to $22.1 million at June 30, 2013 compared with December 31, 2012 due primarily to stockpile drawdowns at the Meadowbank mine. Goodwill increased by $6.1 million between December 31, 2012 and June 30, 2013 due to the acquisition of Urastar Gold Corp. on May 16, 2013. Property, plant and mine development increased by $173.7 million to $4,241.1 million at June 30, 2013 compared with December 31, 2012 due primarily to increases in construction in progress at the La India project, Goldex mine M and E Zones and Meliadine project.

        The Company has analysed its operating mines and development projects for impairment as of June 30, 2013 and concluded no impairment charges were required. In the circumstance where the spot price of gold remains persistently low and the expectations of future realizable gold prices are lowered from current expectations, there is a possibility of future impairment charges to the Company's mining assets.

1


        Total liabilities decreased to $1,834.0 million at June 30, 2013 from $1,845.6 million at December 31, 2012 due primarily to the payment of $37.9 million recorded as dividends payable at December 31, 2012 and to an increase in the outstanding balance under the Credit Facility from $30.0 million at December 31, 2012 to $50.0 million at June 30, 2013.

Fair Value of Derivative Financial Instruments

        The Company enters into contracts to limit the risk associated with decreased byproduct metal prices, increased foreign currency costs (including capital expenditures) and input costs. The contracts act as economic hedges of underlying exposures and are not held for speculative purposes. Agnico Eagle does not use complex derivative contracts to hedge exposures. The fair value of the Company's derivative financial instruments is outlined in the financial instruments note to the interim unaudited consolidated financial statements.

Results of Operations

        Agnico Eagle reported a net loss of $24.4 million, or $0.14 per share, in the second quarter of 2013 compared with net income of $43.3 million, or $0.25 per share, in the second quarter of 2012. In the second quarter of 2013, the operating margin (revenue from mining operations less production costs) decreased to $110.5 million from $239.7 million in the second quarter of 2012 due primarily to a 16.6% decrease in the average realized price of gold, a 15.5% decrease in gold production and a 2.7% increase in production costs. Gold production decreased to 224,089 ounces in the second quarter of 2013 compared with 265,350 ounces in the second quarter of 2012 due primarily to the Kittila mine's extended mill shutdown to facilitate the relining of its autoclave during the second quarter of 2013. Cash provided by operating activities amounted to $75.3 million in the second quarter of 2013 compared with $194.1 million in the second quarter of 2012. Total weighted average cash costs per ounce of gold produced amounted to $785 in the second quarter of 2013 compared with $660 in the second quarter of 2012.

        In the first six months of 2013, Agnico Eagle reported a net loss of $0.5 million, or $0.00 per share compared with net income of $121.8 million, or $0.71 per share, in the first six months of 2012. The operating margin (revenue from mining operations less production costs) decreased to $300.8 million in the first six months of 2013 from $497.6 million in the first six months of 2012 due primarily to an 11.4% decrease in gold production, a 10.2% decrease in the average realized price of gold and a 4.8% increase in production costs. Gold production decreased to 461,064 ounces in the first six months of 2013 compared with 520,305 ounces in the first six months of 2012 due primarily to the Kittila mine's extended mill shutdown to facilitate the relining of its autoclave during the second quarter of 2013 and the temporary suspension of active leaching at the Creston Mascota deposit at Pinos Altos during the first quarter of 2013. Cash provided by operating activities amounted to $221.4 million in the first six months of 2013 compared with $390.6 million in the first six months of 2012. Total weighted average cash costs per ounce of gold produced amounted to $762 in the first six months of 2013 compared with $628 in the first six months of 2012.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2013 vs. Three Months Ended June 30, 2012

        In the second quarter of 2013, revenues from mining operations decreased to $336.4 million from $459.6 million in the second quarter of 2012 due primarily to decreases in the average realized price of gold, gold sales volume and negative settlement adjustments for byproduct metals at the LaRonde mine and the Pinos Altos mine. Gold production decreased by 15.5% in the second quarter of 2013 compared with the second quarter of 2012 due primarily to the extended mill shutdown at the Kittila mine.

        In the second quarter of 2013, total weighted average cash costs per ounce of gold produced increased to $785 from $660 in the second quarter of 2012 and production costs increased to $226.0 million in the second quarter of 2013 from $219.9 million in the second quarter of 2012. The increase in total weighted average cash costs per ounce of gold produced in the second quarter of 2013 was largely attributable to lower net byproduct revenue credits at the LaRonde and Pinos Altos mines and decreased production at the Meadowbank and Lapa mines and at the Creston Mascota deposit at Pinos Altos.

        Exploration and corporate development expenses amounted to $11.3 million in the second quarter of 2013 compared with $34.3 million in the second quarter of 2012 due primarily to exploration expenditures associated with the La India project and the Goldex mine M and E zones meeting the criteria for capitalization in 2013. Exploration expenditures associated with the La India project and the Goldex mine M and E Zones were expensed in the second quarter of 2012.

        An impairment loss on certain available-for-sale securities of $17.3 million was recorded as at June 30, 2013 compared with $11.6 million as at June 30, 2012. Impairment loss evaluations of available-for-sale securities are based on the severity and duration of their individual unrealized loss positions.

        During the second quarter of 2013, there was a non-cash foreign currency translation gain of $11.1 million mainly attributable to the weakening of the Canadian dollar and Mexican peso versus the US dollar at June 30, 2013 relative to March 31, 2013. A non-cash foreign currency translation gain of $11.0 million was recorded during the comparative second quarter of 2012.

        Although the Company recorded a loss before income and mining taxes of $23.5 million in the second quarter of 2013, income and mining taxes amounted to $0.9 million due to the consideration of non-deductible

3


expenses such as stock-based compensation. In the second quarter of 2012, the Company's effective tax rate was 43.9%.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2013 vs. Six Months Ended June 30, 2012

        In the first six months of 2013, revenues from mining operations decreased to $756.8 million from $932.5 million in the first six months of 2012 due primarily to decreases in the average realized price of gold, gold sales volume and negative settlement adjustments for byproduct metals at the LaRonde mine and the Pinos Altos mine. Gold production decreased by 11.4% in the first six months of 2013 compared with the first six months of 2012 due primarily to the extended mill shutdown at the Kittila mine in the second quarter of 2013 and the suspension of active leaching at the Creston Mascota deposit at Pinos Altos in the first quarter of 2013.

        In the first six months of 2013, total weighted average cash costs per ounce of gold produced increased to $762 from $628 in the first six months of 2012 and production costs increased to $456.0 million in first six months of 2013 from $434.9 million in the first six months of 2012. The increase in total weighted average cash costs per ounce of gold produced in the first six months of 2013 was largely attributable to lower net byproduct revenue credits at the LaRonde and Pinos Altos mines and decreased production at the Lapa and Meadowbank mines and at the Creston Mascota deposit at Pinos Altos.

        Exploration and corporate development expenses amounted to $19.9 million in the first six months of 2013 compared with $57.4 million in the first six months of 2012 due primarily to exploration expenditures associated with the La India project and the Goldex mine M and E zones meeting the criteria for capitalization in 2013. Exploration expenditures associated with the La India project and the Goldex mine M and E Zones were expensed in the first six months of 2012.

        Impairment losses on certain available-for-sale securities of $28.3 million were recorded in the first six months of 2013 compared with $11.6 million in the first six months of 2012.

        During the first six months of 2013, there was a non-cash foreign currency translation gain of $7.5 million mainly attributable to the weakening of the Canadian dollar and Mexican peso versus the US dollar at June 30, 2013 relative to December 31, 2012. A non-cash foreign currency translation loss of $4.5 million was recorded during the comparative first six months of 2012.

        In the first six months of 2013, the Company recorded income before income and mining taxes of $25.1 million. Income and mining taxes of $25.7 million were incurred in the first six months of 2013 due to the consideration of non-deductible expenses such as stock-based compensation. In the first six months of 2012, the Company's effective tax rate was 34.0%.

Canada — LaRonde mine

        At the LaRonde mine, gold production increased 14.7% to 46,119 ounces in the second quarter of 2013 compared with 40,206 ounces in the second quarter of 2012 due primarily to higher gold grade and improved mill recoveries. Production costs at the LaRonde mine were $60.6 million in the second quarter of 2013, an increase of 9.3% compared with production costs of $55.5 million in the second quarter of 2012 driven primarily by increased gold production.

        Gold production increased 2.0% to 85,192 ounces in the first six months of 2013 compared with 83,487 ounces in the first six months of 2012 due primarily to higher gold grade and improved mill recoveries. Production costs at the LaRonde mine were $118.5 million in the first six months of 2013, an increase of 4.3% compared with production costs of $113.7 million in the first six months of 2012 driven primarily by increased gold production and underground development, underground maintenance and mining expenses.

Canada — Goldex mine

        On October 19, 2011, the Company suspended mining operations and gold production at the Goldex mine due to geotechnical concerns with the rock above the mining horizon of the Goldex Extension Zone ("GEZ"). As of September 30, 2011, Agnico Eagle wrote down its investment in the Goldex mine (net of expected residual value) and its underground ore stockpile. All of the remaining 1.6 million ounces of proven and probable

4


reserves at the Goldex mine, other than ore stockpiled on surface, were reclassified as mineral resources. An environmental remediation liability was recorded as of September 30, 2011 reflecting anticipated costs of remediation. The Goldex mill completed processing feed from the remaining surface stockpile in October of 2011.

        During the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company incurred $2.9 million and $5.5 million in remediation costs, respectively, that were applied against the environmental remediation liability recognized in 2011. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, the Company incurred $6.1 million and $12.3 million in remediation costs, respectively, that were applied against the environmental remediation liability recognized in 2011.

        Exploration drilling continued on several mineralized zones on the Goldex mine property near the GEZ after mining operations were suspended. A team of independent consultants and Agnico Eagle staff performed a thorough review, including a preliminary economic assessment based only on the indicated resources, to determine whether future mining operations on the property, including the M and E zones, would be viable. After a review of the assessment, the Board of Directors (the "Board") has approved the M and E zones for development and first gold production is expected in the fourth quarter of 2013. All necessary operating permits have been received and proven and probable gold reserves have been declared. The mining operations will include the use of existing Goldex mine infrastructure such as the shaft and mill. The operations in the GEZ remain suspended indefinitely.

Canada — Lapa mine

        At the Lapa mine, gold production decreased 17.7% to 23,178 ounces in the second quarter of 2013 compared with 28,157 ounces in the second quarter of 2012 due primarily to lower gold grade. Production costs at the Lapa mine were $18.1 million in the second quarter of 2013, a decrease of 1.9% compared with production costs of $18.5 million in the second quarter of 2012 driven primarily by decreased gold production, offset partially by increased underground maintenance and administration expenses.

        Gold production decreased 11.7% to 50,046 ounces in the first six months of 2013 compared with 56,656 ounces in the first six months of 2012 due primarily to lower gold grade. Production costs at the Lapa mine were $34.7 million in the first six months of 2013, a decrease of 6.5% compared with production costs of $37.1 million in the first six months of 2012 driven primarily by decreased gold production, offset partially by increased underground maintenance, drilling and administration expenses.

Canada — Meadowbank mine

        At the Meadowbank mine, gold production decreased 6.6% to 91,873 ounces in the second quarter of 2013 compared with 98,403 ounces in the second quarter of 2012 due primarily to lower gold grade and mill recoveries. Production costs at the Meadowbank mine were $90.1 million in the second quarter of 2013, an increase of 10.4% compared with production costs of $81.6 million in the second quarter of 2012 driven primarily by increased mine maintenance, administration and drilling expenses, offset partially by decreased gold production.

        Gold production decreased 2.3% to 173,691 ounces in the first six months of 2013 compared with 177,804 ounces in the first six months of 2012 due primarily to lower gold grade and mill recoveries. Production costs at the Meadowbank mine were $183.7 million in the first six months of 2013, an increase of 15.8% compared with production costs of $158.6 million in the first six months of 2012 driven primarily by increased mine maintenance, drilling and administration expenses, offset partially by decreased gold production.

Latin America — Pinos Altos mine (including the Creston Mascota deposit at Pinos Altos)

        At the Pinos Altos mine, gold production increased 4.6% to 47,383 ounces in the second quarter of 2013 compared with 45,307 ounces in the second quarter of 2012 due primarily to higher gold and silver grade and improved mill recoveries. Production costs at the Pinos Altos mine were $34.5 million in the second quarter of 2013, a 4.4% increase compared with production costs of $33.1 million in the second quarter of 2012 driven primarily by increased gold production.

5


        Gold production increased 3.3% to 91,547 ounces in the first six months of 2013 compared with 88,599 ounces in the first six months of 2012 due primarily to higher gold and silver grade, improved mill recoveries and an increase in tonnes of ore milled. Production costs at the Pinos Altos mine were $66.2 million in the first six months of 2013, an increase of 3.9% compared with production costs of $63.7 million in the first six months of 2012 driven primarily by increased gold production.

        At the Creston Mascota deposit at Pinos Altos, gold production decreased to 10,147 ounces in the second quarter of 2013 compared with 18,049 ounces in the second quarter of 2012 due primarily to lower gold and silver grade and a decrease in tonnes of ore stacked on the Phase Two leach pad in the second quarter of 2013 compared with the tonnes of ore stacked on the Phase One leach pad in the second quarter of 2012. Production costs at the Creston Mascota deposit at Pinos Altos were $4.4 million in the second quarter of 2013 compared with $7.8 million in the second quarter of 2012 driven primarily by decreased gold and silver production.

        Gold production decreased to 12,054 ounces in the first six months of 2013 compared with 31,773 ounces in the first six months of 2012 due primarily to the temporary suspension of active leaching at the Creston Mascota deposit at Pinos Altos between October 1, 2012 and March 13, 2013 and lower gold and silver grade. Production costs at the Creston Mascota deposit at Pinos Altos were $7.5 million in the first six months of 2013 compared with $12.3 million in the first six months of 2012 driven primarily by decreased gold and silver production, offset partially by increased administration and regional expenses.

        On September 30, 2012, the Creston Mascota deposit at Pinos Altos experienced a movement of leached ore from the upper lifts of the Phase One leach pad, resulting in a temporary suspension of active leaching. On March 13, 2013, production resumed at the Creston Mascota deposit at Pinos Altos from the Phase Two leach pad, contributing 1,907 ounces of gold production during the first quarter of 2013. The ramp up of production during the second quarter of 2013 was in line with expectations.

Europe — Kittila mine

        At the Kittila mine, gold production decreased to 5,389 ounces in the second quarter of 2013 compared with 35,228 ounces in the second quarter of 2012 due primarily to an extended mill shutdown during the second quarter of 2013 to facilitate the relining of its autoclave, lower gold grade and reduced mill recoveries. Production costs at the Kittila mine were $18.2 million in the second quarter of 2013 compared with production costs of $23.5 million in the second quarter of 2012 driven primarily by decreased gold production, offset partially by increased costs associated with solely underground operations in 2013 compared with a mixture of open pit and underground operations in the second quarter of 2012.

        Gold production decreased to 48,534 ounces in the first six months of 2013 compared with 81,986 ounces in the first six months of 2012 due primarily to the extended mill shutdown in the second quarter of 2013 and lower gold grade. Production costs at the Kittila mine were $45.3 million in the first six months of 2013 compared with $49.5 million in the first six months of 2012 driven primarily by decreased gold production, offset partially by increased costs associated with solely underground operations in 2013 compared with a mixture of open pit and underground operations in the first six months of 2012.

(ii)
Excludes results for the first quarter of 2013 due to the temporary suspension of active leaching at the Creston Mascota deposit at Pinos Altos between October 1, 2012 and March 13, 2013.

(iii)
Under the Company's revenue recognition policy, revenue is recognized on concentrates when legal title passes. As total cash costs per ounce of gold produced are calculated on a production basis, this inventory adjustment reflects the sales margin on the portion of concentrate production not yet recognized as revenue.

(iv)
Total cash costs per ounce of gold produced is not a recognized measure under US GAAP and this data may not be comparable to data presented by other gold producers. This measure is calculated by adjusting production costs as recorded in the interim unaudited consolidated statements of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss) for byproduct revenues, unsold concentrate inventory production costs, non-cash reclamation provisions, deferred stripping costs and other adjustments, and then dividing by the number of ounces of gold produced. The Company believes that this generally accepted industry measure is a realistic indication of operating performance and is a useful comparison point between periods. Total cash costs per ounce of gold produced is intended to provide investors with information about the cash generating capabilities of the Company's mining operations. Management also uses this measure to monitor the performance of the Company's mining operations. As market prices for gold are quoted on a per ounce basis, using this per ounce measure allows management to assess a mine's cash generating capabilities at various gold prices. Management is aware that this per ounce measure of performance can be impacted by fluctuations in byproduct metal prices and exchange rates. Management compensates for these inherent limitations by using this measure in conjunction with minesite costs per tonne (discussed below) as well as other data prepared in accordance with US GAAP. Management also performs sensitivity analyses in order to quantify the effects of fluctuating metal prices and exchange rates.

(v)
The Company reports total cash costs per ounce of gold produced and minesite costs per tonne using a common industry practice of deferring certain stripping costs that can be attributed to future production. The purpose of adjusting for these stripping costs is to enhance the comparability of total cash costs per ounce of gold produced and minesite costs per tonne to the Company's peers within the mining industry.

(vi)
This inventory adjustment reflects production costs associated with unsold concentrates.

(vii)
Minesite costs per tonne is not a recognized measure under US GAAP and this data may not be comparable to data presented by other gold producers. This measure is calculated by adjusting production costs as shown in the interim unaudited consolidated statements of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss) for unsold concentrate inventory production costs, non-cash reclamation provisions, deferred stripping costs and other adjustments, and then dividing by tonnes of ore milled. As the total cash costs per ounce of gold produced measure can be impacted by fluctuations in byproduct metal prices and exchange rates, management believes that the minesite costs per tonne measure provides additional information regarding the performance of mining operations, eliminating the impact of varying production levels. Management also uses this measure to determine the economic viability of mining blocks. As each mining block is evaluated based on the net realizable value of each tonne mined, in order to be economically viable the estimated revenue on a per tonne basis must be in excess of the minesite costs per tonne. Management is aware that this per tonne measure of performance can be impacted by fluctuations in processing levels and compensates for this inherent limitation by using this measure in conjunction with production costs prepared in accordance with US GAAP.

        On July 24, 2012, the Company closed a private placement consisting of $200.0 million of guaranteed senior unsecured notes due in 2022 and 2024 (the "2012 Notes") with a weighted average maturity of 11.0 years and

13


weighted average yield of 4.95%. Proceeds from the 2012 Notes were used to repay amounts outstanding under the Company's $1.2 billion unsecured revolving bank credit facility (the "Credit Facility").

        On July 20, 2012, the Company amended and restated its Credit Facility. The total amount available under the Credit Facility remains unchanged at $1.2 billion; however, the maturity date was extended from June 22, 2016 to June 22, 2017. Pricing terms were amended to reflect improved current market conditions. As at June 30, 2013, the Company's outstanding balance under the Credit Facility was $50.0 million. Credit Facility availability is reduced by outstanding letters of credit, amounting to $1.1 million at June 30, 2013. Therefore, $1,148.9 million was available for future drawdown under the Credit Facility at June 30, 2013.

        The Company entered into a credit agreement on June 26, 2012 with a financial institution relating to a new C$150 million uncommitted letter of credit facility (the "Letter of Credit Facility"). The obligations of the Company under the Letter of Credit Facility are guaranteed by certain of its subsidiaries. The Letter of Credit Facility may be used to support the reclamation obligations or non-financial or performance obligations of the Company or its subsidiaries. As at June 30, 2013, $131.8 million had been drawn under the Letter of Credit Facility.

        On April 7, 2010, the Company closed a private placement consisting of $600.0 million of guaranteed senior unsecured notes due in 2017, 2020 and 2022 (the "2010 Notes") with a weighted average maturity of 9.84 years and weighted average yield of 6.59%. Proceeds from the offering of the 2010 Notes were used to repay amounts under the Company's then outstanding credit facilities.

        In June 2009, the Company entered into a C$95 million financial security guarantee issuance agreement with Export Development Canada (the "EDC Facility"). Under the agreement, which matures in June 2014, Export Development Canada agreed to provide guarantees in respect of letters of credit issued on behalf of the Company in favour of certain beneficiaries in respect of obligations relating to the Meadowbank mine. As at June 30, 2013, outstanding letters of credit drawn under the EDC Facility totalled nil.

        The Company was in compliance with all covenants contained within the Credit Facility, 2012 Notes and 2010 Notes as at June 30, 2013.

        The Company issued common shares for gross proceeds of $3.9 million in the second quarter of 2013 due primarily to issuances under the Company's employee share purchase plan. In the second quarter of 2012, the Company issued common shares for gross proceeds of $4.1 million.

Risk Profile

        Volatility remains high in global financial markets and weakness in the global economy continues to have a serious impact on the profitability and liquidity of many businesses. Although there are signs of stabilization, the timing of a return to historical market conditions is uncertain. Virtually all industries, including gold mining, have been affected by weak economic conditions and volatile financial markets. Continuation of volatility in world markets could have a significant impact on our business. In particular, the global credit/liquidity crisis could continue to affect the cost and availability of financing and our overall liquidity. The volatility in gold, silver, zinc and copper prices directly affects our revenues, earnings and cash flow. Volatile energy prices, commodity and consumables prices and currency exchange rates impact our production costs. The volatility of global stock markets impacts the valuation of our equity investments. The current economic turmoil in Europe is compounding global volatility issues.

Recently Adopted and Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements and Developments

        See the Company's interim unaudited consolidated financial statements for Recently Adopted and Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements and Developments (if applicable).

Disclosure Controls and Procedures and Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

        Pursuant to regulations adopted by the US Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and those of the CSA, the Company's management evaluates the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures, and internal controls over

14


financial reporting. This evaluation is done under the supervision of, and with the participation of, the President and Chief Executive Officer ("CEO").

        As of the end of the period covered by this quarterly MD&A and accompanying interim unaudited consolidated financial statements, the Company's management evaluated the effectiveness of its disclosure controls. Based on that evaluation, the CEO has concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports it files was recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the appropriate time periods.

        Management of the Company, with the participation of the CEO, is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal controls over financial reporting. The Company's internal controls over financial reporting are designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and preparation of interim unaudited consolidated financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. There have been no significant changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting in the second quarter of 2013 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, internal control over financial reporting.

        The Company's management including the CEO believe that any disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls over financial reporting, no matter how well designed, can have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance that the objectives of the control system are met.

Non-GAAP Financial Performance Measures

        This MD&A presents certain financial performance measures, including total cash costs per ounce of gold produced, minesite costs per tonne, adjusted net income and all-in sustaining costs per ounce of gold produced, that are not recognized measures under US GAAP. This data may not be comparable to data presented by other gold producers. Non-GAAP financial performance measures should be considered together with other data prepared in accordance with US GAAP.

Total Cash Costs per Ounce of Gold Produced and Minesite Costs per Tonne

        For a reconciliation of total cash costs per ounce of gold produced and minesite costs per tonne to the figures presented in the interim unaudited consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with US GAAP, see Results of Operations — Production Costs in the MD&A. The Company believes that these generally accepted industry measures are realistic indicators of operating performance and are useful in allowing year over year comparisons. However, both of these non-US GAAP measures should be considered together with other data prepared in accordance with US GAAP. These measures, taken by themselves, are not necessarily indicative of operating costs or cash flow measures prepared in accordance with US GAAP.

Adjusted Net Income

        Adjusted net income is not a recognized measure under US GAAP and this data may not be comparable to data presented by other gold producers. This measure is calculated by adjusting net income as recorded in the interim unaudited consolidated statements of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss) for non-recurring, unusual and other items. The Company believes that this generally accepted industry measure allows the evaluation of the results of continuing operations and is a useful comparison point between periods. Adjusted net income is intended to provide investors with information about the Company's continuing income generating

15


capabilities. Management uses this measure to monitor and plan for the operating performance of the Company in conjunction with other data prepared in accordance with US GAAP.

All-in Sustaining Costs per Ounce of Gold Produced

        All-in sustaining costs per ounce of gold produced, calculated beginning in 2013, is not a recognized measure under US GAAP and this data may not be comparable to data presented by other gold producers. The Company believes that this measure provides a realistic indicator of operating performance. However, this non-US GAAP measure should be considered together with other data prepared in accordance with US GAAP as it is not necessarily indicative of operating costs or cash flow measures prepared in accordance with US GAAP.

        For the three months ended June 30, 2013, all-in sustaining costs per ounce of gold produced amounted to $1,127, calculated as the accumulation of total cash costs per ounce of gold produced of $785, sustaining capital expenditures per ounce of $215, exploration and corporate development expenses (excluding greenfield exploration) per ounce of $19 and general and administrative expenses (net of stock options) per ounce of $108. The calculation excludes the Kittila mine's results for the second quarter of 2013. Due to scheduled maintenance, the Kittila mine only operated for 14 days during the second quarter of 2013.

        For the six months ended June 30, 2013, all-in sustaining costs per ounce of gold produced amounted to $1,071, calculated as the accumulation of total cash costs per ounce of gold produced of $762, sustaining capital expenditures per ounce of $184, exploration and corporate development expenses (excluding greenfield exploration) per ounce of $17 and general and administrative expenses (net of stock options) per ounce of $108. The calculation excludes the Kittila mine's results for the second quarter of 2013. Due to scheduled maintenance, the Kittila mine only operated for 14 days during the second quarter of 2013. The calculation excludes the results of the Creston Mascota deposit at Pinos Altos for the first quarter of 2013 due to the temporary suspension of active leaching at the Creston Mascota deposit at Pinos Altos between October 1, 2012 and March 13, 2013.

AGNICO EAGLE MINES LIMITED

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(thousands of United States dollars, except share and per share amounts, unless otherwise indicated)
(Unaudited)
June 30, 2013

1.     BASIS OF PRESENTATION

    The accompanying interim unaudited consolidated financial statements of Agnico Eagle Mines Limited ("Agnico Eagle" or the "Company") have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles ("US GAAP") in US dollars. They do not include all of the disclosures required by US GAAP for annual financial statements. Accordingly, these interim unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the fiscal 2012 audited annual consolidated financial statements, including the accounting policies and notes thereto, included in the Annual Report and Annual Information Form/Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2012. In the opinion of management, the interim unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which consist only of normal and recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position as at June 30, 2013 and the results of operations and cash flows for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and June 30, 2012.

    Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2013.

2.     USE OF ESTIMATES

    The preparation of the interim unaudited consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the interim unaudited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Management believes that the estimates used in the preparation of the interim unaudited consolidated financial statements are reasonable and prudent; however, actual results may differ from these estimates.

3.     ACCOUNTING POLICIES

    These interim unaudited consolidated financial statements follow the same accounting policies and methods of their application as the December 31, 2012 audited annual consolidated financial statements except for the recently adopted accounting pronouncements discussed below.

    Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

    Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities

    In November 2011, ASC guidance was issued relating to disclosure on offsetting financial instrument and derivative financial instrument assets and liabilities. Under the updated guidance, entities are required to disclose gross information and net information about both instruments and transactions eligible for offset in the consolidated balance sheets and instruments and transactions subject to an agreement similar to a master netting arrangement. The Company adopted this updated guidance, effective for the fiscal year beginning January 1, 2013. See notes 4 and 10 for disclosure on offsetting financial instrument and derivative financial instrument assets and liabilities.

    Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss

    In February 2013, ASC guidance was issued relating to the reporting of amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive loss. Under the updated guidance, entities are required to provide information about the amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive loss by component and by consolidated statement of income (loss) line item, as required under US GAAP. The Company adopted this updated guidance, effective for the fiscal year beginning January 1, 2013. See the Company's interim unaudited consolidated statements of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss) for reporting of amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive loss.

4.     FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT

    ASC 820 — Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value under US GAAP and requires expanded disclosures about fair value measurements including the following three fair value hierarchy levels:

      Level 1 — Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities;

      Level 2 — Quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability; and

      Level 3 — Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (supported by little or no market activity).

4.     FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT (Continued)

    Fair value is the value at which a financial instrument could be closed out or sold in a transaction with a willing and knowledgeable counterparty over a period of time consistent with the Company's investment strategy. Fair value is based on quoted market prices, where available. If market quotes are not available, fair value is based on internally developed models that use market-based or independent information as inputs. These models could produce a fair value that may not be reflective of future fair value.

    The following table summarizes the Company's financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value as at June 30, 2013 within the fair value hierarchy:

   
  Level 1   Level 2   Level 3   Total  
 

Financial assets:

    Trade receivables from provisional invoices for concentrate sales are valued using quoted forward rates derived from observable market data based on the month of expected settlement (classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy).

    (ii)
    Available-for-sale securities are recorded at fair value using quoted market prices (classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy).

    (iii)
    Derivative financial instruments are recorded at fair value using external broker-dealer quotations (classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy).

    In the event that a decline in the fair value of an investment in available-for-sale securities occurs and the decline in value is considered to be other-than-temporary, an impairment charge is recorded in the interim unaudited consolidated statements of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss) and a new cost basis for the investment is established. The Company assesses whether a decline in value is considered to be other-than-temporary by considering available evidence, including changes in general market conditions, specific industry and individual company data, the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, the financial condition and the near-term prospects of the individual investment. New evidence could become available in future periods which would affect this assessment and thus could result in material impairment charges with respect to those investments in available-for-sale securities for which the cost basis exceeds its fair value.

6.     SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY

    In 2009, the Company implemented the restricted share unit ("RSU") plan for certain employees. Effective January 1, 2012, the RSU plan was amended to include directors and senior executives of the Company.

    A deferred compensation balance is recorded for the total grant date value on the date of each RSU plan grant. The deferred compensation balance is recorded as a reduction of shareholders' equity and is amortized as compensation expense over the applicable vesting period.

    During the first quarter of 2013, the Company funded the RSU plan by transferring $19.0 million (first quarter of 2012 — $12.0 million) to an employee benefit trust (the "Trust") that then purchased shares of the Company in the open market. For accounting purposes, the Trust is treated as a variable interest entity and consolidated in the accounts of the Company. The common shares purchased and held by the Trust are treated as not outstanding for the basic earnings per share ("EPS") calculations. They are included in the basic EPS calculations once they have vested. All of the unvested common shares held by the Trust are included in the diluted EPS calculations.

    The following table summarizes the maximum number of common shares that would be outstanding if all instruments outstanding at June 30, 2013 were exercised:

 

Common shares outstanding at June 30, 2013

6.     SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY (Continued)

    The following table provides the weighted average number of common shares used in the calculation of basic and diluted net income per share:

Net income (loss) per share — basic

  $ (0.14 ) $ 0.25   $ (0.00 ) $ 0.71  
                     
 

Net income (loss) per share — diluted

  $ (0.14 ) $ 0.25   $ (0.00 ) $ 0.71  
                     

    Diluted net income (loss) per share has been calculated using the treasury stock method. In applying the treasury stock method, outstanding employee stock options and warrants with an exercise price greater than the average quoted market price of the common shares for the reporting period are not included in the calculation of diluted net income (loss) per share as the impact would be anti-dilutive.

    For the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, the impact of any additional shares issued under the employee stock option plan, as a result of the conversion of warrants, or related to the RSU Plan would be anti-dilutive as a result of the net loss positions. Consequently, diluted net loss per share was calculated in the same manner as basic net loss per share.

    For the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, all employee stock options and warrants were excluded from the calculation of diluted net income per share as their effect would have been anti-dilutive.

8.     AVAILABLE-FOR-SALE SECURITIES

    During the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company did not dispose of any available-for-sale securities. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, the Company received proceeds of $30.7 million and recognized a loss before income taxes of $6.7 million on the sale of certain available-for-sale securities.

    Available-for-sale securities consist of equity securities whose cost basis is determined using the average cost method. Available-for-sale securities are carried at fair value and comprise the following:

   
  As at
June 30, 2013
  As at

8.     AVAILABLE-FOR-SALE SECURITIES (Continued)

    In each case, the Company evaluated the near-term prospects of the issuers in relation to the severity and duration of the impairment. During the three months ended June 30, 2013, the Company recorded a $17.3 million (three months ended June 30, 2012 — $11.6 million) impairment loss on certain available-for-sale securities that were determined to be other-than-temporarily impaired. During the six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company recorded a $28.3 million (six months ended June 30, 2012 — $11.6 million) impairment loss on certain available-for-sale securities that were determined to be other-than-temporarily impaired.

    At June 30, 2013, the fair value of available-for-sale securities in an unrealized loss position was $28.7 million (December 31, 2012 — $38.5 million) with total unrealized losses in accumulated other comprehensive loss of $4.6 million (December 31, 2012 — $9.6 million). Based on an evaluation of the severity and duration of the impairment of these available-for-sale securities (less than three months) and on the Company's intent to hold the investments for a period of time sufficient for a recovery of fair value, the Company does not consider these available-for-sale securities to be other-than-temporarily impaired as at June 30, 2013.

9.     LONG-TERM DEBT

    Credit Facility

    On June 22, 2010, the Company amended and restated its Credit Facility, increasing the amount available from $900.0 million to $1,200.0 million.

    At June 30, 2013, the Credit Facility was drawn down by $50.0 million (December 31, 2012 — $30.0 million). Amounts drawn down, together with related outstanding letters of credit, resulted in Credit Facility availability of $1,148.9 million at June 30, 2013.

    2012 Notes

    On July 24, 2012, the Company closed a private placement consisting of $200.0 million of guaranteed senior unsecured notes due in 2022 and 2024 (the "2012 Notes") with a weighted average maturity of 11.0 years and weighted average yield of 4.95%.

9.     LONG-TERM DEBT (Continued)

    The Credit Facility contains covenants that limit, among other things, the ability of the Company to incur additional indebtedness, make distributions in certain circumstances, sell material assets and carry on a business other than one related to the mining business.

    The 2012 Notes and 2010 Notes contain covenants that restrict, among other things, the ability of the Company to amalgamate or otherwise transfer its assets, sell material assets, carry on a business other than one related to mining and the ability of the Guarantors to incur indebtedness.

    The Credit Facility, 2012 Notes and 2010 Notes also require the Company to maintain a total net debt to EBITDA ratio below a specified maximum value as well as a minimum tangible net worth.

    The Company was in compliance with all covenants contained within the Credit Facility, 2012 Notes and 2010 Notes as at June 30, 2013.

    Interest on long-term debt

    Total long-term debt interest costs incurred during the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 were $12.4 million (three months ended June 30, 2012 — $10.9 million) and $24.7 million (six months ended June 30, 2012 — $22.4 million), respectively.

    Total interest costs capitalized to property, plant and mine development for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 were $1.2 million (three months ended June 30, 2012 — $0.3 million) and $2.3 million (six months ended June 30, 2012 — $0.5 million), respectively.

    During the three months ended June 30, 2013, cash interest paid on the Credit Facility was $0.2 million (three months ended June 30, 2012 — $1.0 million), cash standby fees paid on the Credit Facility were $1.2 million (three months ended June 30, 2012 — $1.0 million) and cash interest paid on the 2010 Notes and 2012 Notes was $19.8 million (three months ended June 30, 2012 — $19.8 million).

    During the six months ended June 30, 2013, cash interest paid on the Credit Facility was $0.2 million (six months ended June 30, 2012 — $2.7 million), cash standby fees paid on the Credit Facility were $2.4 million (six months ended June 30, 2012 — $2.0 million) and cash interest paid on the 2010 Notes and 2012 Notes was $24.7 million (six months ended June 30, 2012 — $19.8 million).

10.   FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

    Currency Risk Management

    The Company utilizes foreign exchange hedges to reduce the variability of the US dollar amount of expected future foreign currency expenditures arising from changes in currency exchange rates. Hedged items represent a portion of the Canadian dollar denominated cash outflows arising from Canadian dollar denominated expenditures.

    As at June 30, 2013, the Company had outstanding foreign exchange zero cost collars with a cash flow hedging relationship that did qualify for hedge accounting under ASC 815 — Derivatives and Hedging. The purchase of US dollar put options was financed through selling US dollar call options at a higher level such that the net premium payable to the different counterparties by the Company was nil. At June 30, 2013, the zero cost collars hedged $120.0 million of 2013 expenditures and the Company recognized a mark-to-market loss of $1.8 million in accumulated other comprehensive loss ("AOCL").

    Amounts deferred in AOCL are reclassified to the production costs line item on the interim unaudited consolidated statements of income (loss), as applicable, when the derivative financial instrument has settled. Mark-to-market gains (losses) related to foreign exchange derivative financial instruments are based on broker-dealer quotations that utilize period end forward pricing of the currency hedged to calculate fair value.

    The Company's other foreign currency derivative strategies in 2013 and 2012 consisted mainly of writing US dollar call options with short maturities to generate premiums that would, in essence, enhance the spot transaction rate received when exchanging US dollars for Canadian dollars. All of these derivative transactions expired prior to period end such that no derivatives were outstanding on June 30, 2013 or June 30, 2012. Call option premiums were recognized in the loss (gain) on derivative financial instruments line item of the interim unaudited consolidated statements of income (loss).

    Commodity Price Risk Management

    The Company uses intra-quarter zinc and copper derivative financial instruments associated with the timing of sales of the related products during 2013 and 2012 that were recognized in the loss (gain) on derivative financial instruments line item of the interim unaudited consolidated statements of income (loss). There were no zinc intra-quarter derivative financial instruments outstanding at June 30, 2013 or December 31, 2012 and there were no intra-quarter copper derivative financial instruments purchased or outstanding during the three and six months ended June 30, 2013.

10.   FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (Continued)

    To mitigate the risks associated with fluctuating diesel fuel prices, the Company uses derivative financial instrument contracts to hedge the price on a portion of diesel fuel costs associated with the Meadowbank mine's diesel fuel exposure as it relates to operating costs. Financial contracts expiring in 2013 and totaling 0.5 million gallons of heating oil were entered into at an average price of $2.45 per gallon, which is approximately 3.0% of the Meadowbank mine's expected 2013 diesel fuel operating costs. The contracts expiring in 2013 did qualify for hedge accounting and the related market-to-market gain as at June 30, 2013 was recognized in AOCL. No heating oil financial contracts expired during the three or six months ended June 30, 2013. Amounts deferred in AOCL are reclassified to the production costs line item of the interim unaudited consolidated statements of income (loss), as applicable, when the derivative financial instrument has settled. Mark-to-market gains (losses) related to heating oil derivative financial instruments are based on broker-dealer quotations that utilize period end forward pricing to calculate fair value.

    The fair value of the Company's derivative financial instruments are reported on the fair value of derivative financial instruments line item of the interim unaudited consolidated balance sheets.

13.   RECLAMATION PROVISION

    Agnico Eagle's reclamation provision includes both asset retirement obligations and environmental remediation liabilities. Reclamation provision estimates are based on current legislation, third party estimates, management's estimates and feasibility study calculations.

    Due to the suspension of mining operations at the Goldex mine on October 19, 2011, an environmental remediation liability was recognized. During the six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company incurred $5.5 million in remediation costs that were applied against the environmental remediation liability recognized in 2011. As at June 30, 2013, the remaining Goldex mine environmental remediation liability was $17.6 million, $6.3 million of which was classified as a current liability. The Goldex mine is part of the Canada segment as described in note 12.

14.   ACQUISITIONS

    Urastar Gold Corporation

    On May 16, 2013, the Company completed the acquisition of all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Urastar Gold Corporation ("Urastar") pursuant to a court-approved plan of arrangement under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) for cash consideration of $10.1 million. The Urastar acquisition was accounted for as a business combination and goodwill of $6.1 million was recognized on the Company's consolidated balance sheets.

    The transaction costs associated with the acquisition totalling $0.7 million were expensed through the general and administrative line item of the interim unaudited consolidated statements of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss) during the six months ended June 30, 2013.

14.   ACQUISITIONS (Continued)

    The following table details the allocation of the purchase price to assets acquired and liabilities assumed, based on management's estimates of fair value:

 

Total purchase price:

       
 

Cash paid for acquisition

  $ 10,127  
 

Fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed:

       
 

Mining properties

  $ 7,699  
 

Goodwill

    6,135  
 

Cash and cash equivalents

    76  
 

Trade receivables

    731  
 

Other current assets

    12  
 

Plant and equipment

Accounts payable and accrued liabilities

    (791 )
 

Other liabilities

    (1,573 )
 

Deferred tax liability

    (2,164 )
         
 

Net assets acquired

  $ 10,127  
         

    The Company believes that goodwill for the Urastar acquisition arose principally because of the following factors: (1) the going concern value implicit in the Company's ability to sustain and/or grow its business by increasing reserves and resources through new discoveries; and (2) the requirement to record a deferred tax liability for the difference between the assigned values and the tax bases of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination at amounts that do not reflect fair value.

    Pro forma results of operations for the Company assuming the acquisition of Urastar described above had occurred as of January 1, 2012 are detailed below. On a pro forma basis, there would have been no effect on the Company's consolidated revenues.

    Grayd Resource Corporation

    On November 18, 2011, the Company acquired 94.77% of the outstanding shares of Grayd Resource Corporation ("Grayd"), on a fully-diluted basis, by way of a take-over bid. The November 18, 2011 purchase price of $222.1 million was comprised of $166.0 million in cash and 1,250,477 newly issued Agnico Eagle shares. The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination and goodwill of $29.2 million was recognized on the Company's consolidated balance sheets.

    On January 23, 2012, the Company acquired the remaining outstanding shares of Grayd it did not already own, pursuant to a previously announced compulsory acquisition carried out under the provisions of the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia). The January 23, 2012 purchase price of $11.8 million was comprised of $9.3 million in cash and 68,941 newly issued Agnico Eagle shares valued at $2.4 million. The non-controlling interest as reported on the December 31, 2011 consolidated balance sheets of the Company was eliminated as a result of this transaction.

15.   GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE

    Due to a kitchen fire at the Meadowbank mine in March 2011, the Company recognized a loss on disposal of the kitchen of $6.9 million, incurred related costs of $7.4 million, and recognized an insurance receivable for $11.2 million. The difference of $3.1 million was recognized in the general and administrative line item of the interim unaudited consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income during the three months ended March 31, 2011.

    During the subsequent months of 2011 and 2012, the Company received $4.6 million in insurance proceeds relating to the kitchen fire at the Meadowbank mine and had a related remaining insurance receivable of $6.6 million as at December 31, 2012 within the other current assets line item of the consolidated balance sheets. During the six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company did not receive

16.   SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

    On July 24, 2013, Agnico Eagle announced that the Board approved the payment of a quarterly cash dividend of $0.22 per common share, payable on September 17, 2013 to holders of record of the common shares of the Company on September 3, 2013.

17.   SECURITIES CLASS ACTION LAWSUITS

    On November 7, 2011 and November 22, 2011, the Company and certain current and former senior officers, some of whom also are or were directors of the Company, were named as defendants in two putative class action lawsuits, styled Jerome Stone v. Agnico-Eagle Mines Ltd., et al., and Chris Hastings v. Agnico-Eagle Mines Limited, et al., respectively, which were filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. On February 6, 2012, the Court ordered that the two complaints be consolidated under the caption In re Agnico-Eagle Mines Ltd. Securities Litigation, and lead counsel was appointed. On April 6, 2012, a Consolidated Complaint was issued against the Company and certain of its current and former senior officers and directors. The Consolidated Complaint alleges that the Company had violated federal securities law in connection with its disclosure related to the Goldex mine. The Consolidated Complaint seeks, among other things, damages on behalf of persons who purchased or acquired securities of the Company during the period July 28, 2010 to October 19, 2011. The Consolidated Complaint has not been certified as a class action, and the Company intends to vigorously defend it. On January 14, 2013, Judge Oetken granted the Company's motion to dismiss the Consolidated Complaint and all claims therein and denied the plaintiffs' request for leave to amend the Consolidated Complaint. On February 12, 2013, the plaintiffs filed a Notice of Appeal to the United States Court for Appeals for the Second Circuit. No date has been set for the appeal.

    On March 8, 2012 and April 10, 2012, a Notice of Action and Statement of Claim (collectively, the "Ontario Claim") were issued by William Leslie, AFA Livforsakringsaktiebolag and certain other entities against the Company and certain of its current and former officers, some of whom also are or were directors of the Company. On September 27, 2012, the plaintiffs issued a Fresh as Amended Statement of Claim. The Fresh as Amended Statement of Claim alleges that the Company's public disclosure concerning water flow issues at its Goldex mine was misleading. The Ontario Claim was issued by the plaintiffs on behalf of all persons and entities who acquired securities of the Company during the period March 26, 2010 to October 19, 2011, excluding persons resident or domiciled in the Province of Quebec at the time they purchased or acquired such securities. The plaintiffs seek, among other things, damages of C$250.0 million and to certify the Ontario Claim as a class action. On April 17, 2013 an Order was granted on consent certifying a class action proceeding and granting leave for the claims under Section 138 of the Securities Act (Ontario) to proceed. The Company intends to vigorously defend the action on the merits.

    On March 28, 2012, the Company and certain of its current and former senior officers, some of whom also are or were directors of the Company, were named as respondents in a Motion for Leave to Institute a Class Action and for the Appointment of a Representative Plaintiff (the "Quebec Motion"). The action is on behalf of all persons and entities with fewer than 50 employees resident in Quebec who acquired securities of the Company between March 26, 2010 and October 19, 2011. The proposed class action is for damages of C$100.0 million arising as a result of allegedly misleading disclosure by the Company concerning its operations at the Goldex mine. On October 15, 2012, the plaintiffs served an amended Quebec Motion seeking leave to commence an action under the Securities Act (Quebec) in addition to seeking authorization to institute a class action. No date has been set for the hearing to argue the Quebec Motion. The Company intends to vigorously contest the Quebec Motion and defend the claim.
