BARRICK GOLD CORPORATION BY-LAW NO. 2 A by-law relating generally to the nomination of persons for election of directors of BARRICK GOLD CORPORATION (the "Corporation"). BE IT ENACTED AND IT IS HEREBY ENACTED as a by-law of the Corporation as follows: INTRODUCTION 1. The purpose of this Advance Notice By-law ("By-Law No. 2") is to establish the conditions and framework under which holders of record of common shares of the Corporation may exercise their right to submit director nominations by fixing a deadline by which such nominations must be submitted by a shareholder to the Corporation prior to any annual or special meeting of shareholders, including without limitation setting forth the information that a shareholder must include in the notice to the Corporation for the notice to be in proper written form. NOMINATIONS OF DIRECTORS 2. Only persons who are nominated in accordance with the following procedures shall be eligible for election as directors of the Corporation. Nominations of persons for election to the board of directors of the Corporation (the "Board") may be made at any annual meeting of shareholders, or at any special meeting of shareholders if one of the purposes for which the special meeting was called was the election of directors: (c) by or at the direction of the Board, including pursuant to a notice of meeting; by or at the direction or request of one or more shareholders pursuant to a "proposal" made in accordance with section 99 of the Act, or a requisition of the shareholders made in accordance with Part VII of the Act; or by any person (a "Nominating Shareholder"): (A) who, at the close of business on the date of the giving by the Nominating Shareholder of the notice provided for below in this By-Law No. 2 and at the close of business on the record date for notice of such meeting, is entered in the securities register of the Corporation as a holder of one or more shares carrying the right to vote at such meeting or beneficially owns shares that are entitled to be voted at such meeting; and (B) who complies with the notice procedures set forth below in this By-Law No. 2. 3. In addition to any other applicable requirements, for a nomination to be made by a Nominating Shareholder, the Nominating Shareholder must have given notice thereof that is both timely (in accordance with paragraph 4 below) and in proper written form (in accordance with paragraph 6 below) to the Secretary of the Corporation at the principal executive offices of the Corporation. Tor#: 2971875.4

- 2-4. To be timely, a Nominating Shareholder's notice to the Secretary of the Corporation must be made: in the case of an annual meeting of shareholders, not less than 30 nor more than 65 days prior to the date of the annual meeting of shareholders; provided, however, that in the event that the annual meeting of shareholders is to be held on a date that is less than 50 days after the date (the "Notice Date") on which the first public announcement of the date of the annual meeting was made, notice by the Nominating Shareholder may be made not later than the close of business on the tenth (10th) day following the Notice Date; and in the case of a special meeting (which is not also an annual meeting) of shareholders called for the purpose of electing directors (whether or not called for other purposes as well), not later than the close of business on the fifteenth (15th) day following the day on which the first public announcement of the date of the special meeting of shareholders was made. 5. The time periods for the giving of a Nominating Shareholder's notice set forth in paragraph 4 above shall in all cases be determined based on the original date of the annual meeting or the first public announcement of the date of the annual or special meeting, as applicable, and in no event shall any adjournment or postponement of a meeting of shareholders or the announcement thereof commence a new time period for the giving of such notice. 6. To be in proper written form, a Nominating Shareholder's notice to the Secretary of the Corporation must: set forth, as to each person whom the Nominating Shareholder proposes to nominate for election as a director (each, a "Proposed Nominee"): (A) (B) (C) (D) the name, age, business address and residential address of the person; the principal occupation or employment of the person for the past five years; the status of such person as a "resident Canadian" (as such term is defined in the Act); the class or series and number of shares in the capital of the Corporation which are directly or indirectly controlled or which are directly or indirectly owned beneficially or of record by the Proposed Nominee and his or her associates or affiliates as of the record date for the meeting of shareholders (if such date shall then have been made publicly available and shall have occurred) and as of the date of such notice, and the date(s) on which such shares were acquired;

All information to be provided in a timely notice pursuant to paragraph 6 above shall be provided as of the date of such notice. If requested by the Corporation, the Nominating Shareholder shall update such information forthwith so that it is true and correct in all material respects as of the date that is 10 business days prior to the date of the meeting, or any adjournment or postponement thereof. 9. For the avoidance of doubt, paragraph 2 above shall be the exclusive means for any person to bring nominations for election to the Board before any annual or special meeting of shareholders of the Corporation. No person shall be eligible for election as a director of the Corporation unless such person has been nominated in accordance with the provisions of this By- Law No. 2; provided, however, that nothing in this By-Law No. 2 shall be deemed to preclude discussion by a shareholder (as distinct from the nomination of directors) at a meeting of shareholders of any matter in respect of which such shareholder would have been entitled to submit a proposal pursuant to section 99 of the Act.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board may, in its sole discretion, waive all or any of the requirements in this By-Law No. 2. 13. The chair of any meeting of shareholders of the Corporation shall have the power to determine whether any proposed nomination is made in accordance with the provisions of this By-Law No. 2, and if any proposed nomination is not in compliance with such provisions, must declare that such defective nomination shall not be considered at any meeting of shareholders. 14. Despite any other provision of this By-Law No. 2, if the Nominating Shareholder (or a qualified representative of the shareholder) does not appear at the meeting of shareholders of the Corporation to present the nomination, or if a Proposed Nominee fails to meet with the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee (or its equivalent) at such committee's request, such nomination shall be disregarded, notwithstanding that proxies in respect of such nomination may have been received by the Corporation. 15. Nothing in this By-Law No. 2 shall obligate the Corporation or the Board to include in any proxy statement or other shareholder communication distributed by or on behalf of the Corporation or the Board any information with respect to any proposed nomination or any Nominating Shareholder or Proposed Nominee. PASSED by the directors of the Corporation on July 31, 2013. CONFIRMED by the shareholders of the Corporation on April 30, 2014.
