Proposed Deferred Share Unit Plan Amendment
In order to bring the Company's Amended Deferred Share Unit ("DSU") Plan ("DSU Plan") within the guidelines established by Institutional Shareholder Services Inc. (ISS), it will propose a further amendment to the DSU Plan to be presented to its shareholders at its June 19, 2025 annual shareholders meeting.

The amendment to the DSU Plan from that disclosed in the Company's Information Circular involves a restriction in Section 7.1 on amending Sections 6.2 and 6.4(c) of the DSU Plan without first obtaining shareholder approval. Sections 6.2 and 6.4(c) of the DSU Plan limit the value of shares issuable under the DSU Plan to each non-employee director as follows: (a) $100,000 in any twelve-month period in the form of DSUs granted under the DSU Plan; and (b) $150,000 in any twelve-month period when combined with the value of shares issuable to the non-employee director pursuant to all grants under all of the Company's other share compensation arrangements during the twelve-month period, without first obtaining shareholder approval. Accordingly, no amendments to these limits set out in Sections 6.2 and 6.4(c) of the DSU Plan will be permitted without shareholder approval. Adoption of the DSU Plan is subject to shareholder approval and acceptance by the Toronto Stock Exchange.

A copy of the proposed DSU plan can be found under Northern Dynasty's profile on SEDAR+ (www.sedarplus.ca). Additionally, a redline version of the proposed DSU plan is available on the Company's Meeting website at https://northerndynastyminerals.com/investors/agm/.
