Teck Announces the Mailing of a Letter of Transmittal in Connection with the Merger of Equals with Anglo American

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, June 30, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Teck Resources Limited (TSX:TECK, NYSE:TECK) ("Teck") announced today that it has mailed a letter of transmittal and election form (the "Letter of Transmittal") to each registered holder of Class A common shares and Class B subordinate voting shares of Teck (collectively, the "Teck Shares") in connection with the previously-announced court-approved plan of arrangement (the "Plan of Arrangement") under section 192 of the Canada Business Corporations Act, involving, among other things, the merger of equals of Anglo American plc ("Anglo American") and Teck (the "Merger").

The Letter of Transmittal explains how to exchange Teck Shares for the consideration under the Merger and, for eligible Canadian Teck shareholders, how to elect to receive the exchangeable share consideration under the Merger. Under the Merger, each Teck Share will be exchanged for 1.3301 ordinary shares (the "Anglo Shares") of Anglo American (the "Exchange Ratio"), or, for eligible Canadian shareholders who so elect, the Exchange Ratio of exchangeable shares of Anglo Teck Exchangeco Limited (the "Exchangeable Shares").

The Letter of Transmittal is for use by registered shareholders only. Beneficial (non-registered) shareholders whose Teck Shares are registered in the name of an intermediary such as a broker, investment dealer, bank, trust company, trustee, nominee or other intermediary should not use the Letter of Transmittal but rather should contact their intermediary for instructions and assistance in depositing their Teck Shares and, if applicable, in making an election as to the form of consideration they wish to receive. Every intermediary has its own procedures with respect to depositing Teck Shares pursuant to the Merger and making an election and may have an earlier deadline. The table below summarizes the default settlement pathway for each category of Teck shareholder:

Registered shareholders are strongly encouraged to read Teck’s management proxy circular dated November 3, 2025 (the "Circular"), including the appendices attached thereto and the documents incorporated therein by reference, before completing the Letter of Transmittal. Shareholders should also carefully review the instructions contained in the Letter of Transmittal. The Circular and a copy of the form of Letter of Transmittal are each available under Teck’s issuer profiles on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca, EDGAR at www.sec.gov and on Teck’s website at www.Teck.com.



The Letter of Transmittal outlines the necessary documentation and information required from each registered shareholder to obtain the consideration to which they are entitled under the Merger and, if applicable, make an election with respect to the form of consideration they wish to receive, as further described below. Registered shareholders should refer to the instructions contained in the Letter of Transmittal to ensure they provide the required documentation and information to the Depositary in order to validly deposit their Teck Shares and elect the form of consideration they wish to receive.

If a registered shareholder does not deposit a properly completed Letter of Transmittal prior to the deadline to make an election in respect of the consideration receivable in exchange for their Teck Shares pursuant to the Merger (the "Election Deadline"), or otherwise fails to comply with the requirements under the Plan of Arrangement and Letter of Transmittal with respect to such election and deposit of their Teck Shares, such registered shareholder will receive, upon delivery of a properly completed Letter of Transmittal together with certificate(s) if any representing their Teck Shares and all other required documentation, in respect of each such Teck Share for which no valid election was made, the consideration to which they are entitled in the form of Anglo Shares for such Teck Shares.

The election window is now open, and registered shareholders may begin depositing their completed Letters of Transmittal with the Depositary immediately. The Election Deadline has not been determined. Teck expects to announce the Election Deadline by news release not less than seven business days prior to the Election Deadline. Accordingly, once the Election Deadline is announced, there may be limited time to complete and deliver the Letter of Transmittal or to address any deficiencies in any delivered form. Registered shareholders who wish to make an election are strongly encouraged to submit their Letter of Transmittal as promptly as possible and are advised not to wait for the announcement of the Election Deadline before doing so.

Registered shareholders who have not deposited a duly completed Letter of Transmittal, together with the certificate(s) (if any) representing their Teck Shares and all other required documentation, with the Depositary will not be recorded on the register of holders of Anglo Shares and will not be entitled to vote or to receive any dividends or other distributions declared in respect of the Anglo Shares until they have done so. Further, if the Letter of Transmittal is not properly completed, executed and deposited, together with the certificate(s) (if any) and all other required documentation, before the day that is the third anniversary of the closing of the Merger, the right of any Teck Shareholder to receive the consideration for their Teck Shares pursuant to the Plan of Arrangement shall terminate and all consideration to which such former Teck Shareholder was entitled shall be deemed to have been surrendered and forfeited to Anglo Teck or ExchangeCo, as applicable.

Under current UK law, stamp duty or stamp duty reserve tax at a rate of 1.5% may apply where Anglo Shares are transferred after issuance into a clearance service (including CDS or DTC) or to the depositary bank for the ADR facility. Registered shareholders who currently hold certificated Teck Shares but intend to hold their Anglo Shares through CDS or in the form of American Depositary Receipts through DTC are therefore strongly advised to transfer their Teck Shares into CDS or DTC, as applicable, prior to completion of the Merger, and should review the Letter of Transmittal for further details.
