Osisko proven corporate leadership, a track record of successful
team building and deep mining industry connections, built upon a
background advising on some of the most transformational mergers
and acquisitions in the mining sector.
Mr. Attew’s appointment is the culmination of a
thorough search process conducted by Osisko’s Board under the
direction of a search committee of independent directors. After
considering a number of quality candidates, both external and
internal, Osisko’s Board unanimously concluded that Mr. Attew is
the ideal candidate to successfully lead Osisko going forward.

has been appointed as Chair of the Board, effective immediately,
succeeding Mr. Sean Roosen. Mr. Roosen will continue as a director

discovery and development of the Canadian Malartic mine and also
led the efforts that resulted in the creation of the
Corporation.
“We are extremely pleased to have attracted a
new President and Chief Executive Officer of the caliber of Jason
Attew, and the entire Board looks forward to working with him over
the years ahead as we focus on a new and exciting stage of
long-term sustainable value creation,” said Mr. MacDonald, the
new Chair of the Board. “The Board also wishes to express its
sincere gratitude to Mr. Sean Roosen, who founded the
Corporation, and grew Osisko from a market capitalization of $400
million to $3.2 billion. We are grateful that Mr. Roosen will
continue as a director, allowing us to continue to benefit from his
knowledge, experience and connections while the Corporation moves
forward under the capable leadership of Mr. Attew. Lastly, I want
to thank Mr. Paul Martin for his leadership and steady hand as
our Interim Chief Executive Officer while we undertook our careful
CEO search process.”

extensive capital markets experience from his time in investment
banking with the BMO Global Metals and Mining Group where he was at
the forefront of structuring and raising significant growth capital
as well as advising on both formative and transformational mergers
and acquisitions for corporations that have become industry leaders
