Letter to Shareholders

Dear Fellow Shareholders,

Fiscal 2025 was marked by ongoing change, as clients adapted to shifting macroeconomic and geopolitical market conditions. The need to simplify, modernize, and secure complex systems and business processes continues to increase. Among the 1,800 business and IT executives we interviewed as part of our annual Voice of Our Clients program, 69% cite that finding skilled IT talent remains a widespread challenge. As modernization priorities continue to accelerate across every industry sector, having the right IT talent is more critical than ever.

Our professionals – whom we refer to as CGI Partners as 88% of them are also shareholders – are the right experts clients need to help achieve their digital transformation goals, including through the meaningful and responsible use of advanced AI. Clients recognize our commitment, providing our teams this year with an overall client satisfaction score of 9.5 out of 10. We thank our consultants worldwide for bringing forward innovative, proven services and solutions that are helping clients be more resilient in today’s market.

As we look ahead to our 50th year of client service, we continue to focus on our own growth and resilience to best serve all of our stakeholders. This includes a business model built on being proximate with clients to serve as their trusted partners, supported by our commitment to continuous learning; diversifying our business by metro market, economic sector, and type of service; and upholding the strong ownership culture that unites us.

We continue to invest in balanced growth that benefits all stakeholders. During the fiscal year, we completed five acquisitions, each accretive in their first year. These mergers expand our geographic reach and enhance our end-to-end offerings, particularly in high-demand areas such as AI, data, cloud, and engineering. As we bring our full value proposition to new clients, these investments are designed to fuel future growth.

We also continued to strengthen our position to lead in the next phase of digital transformation. Together with our clients, we simplify and orchestrate digital complexity to advance toward AI-driven business transformation. In short, we are their ‘AI to ROI partner,’ guided by four strategic pillars: embedding AI into our end-to-end services; leading with AI integrated platforms across CGI IP and alliances partner technologies; uniting talent and AI technologies to accelerate client outcomes; and accelerating internal AI adoption to be an organization designed by and for humans, powered by AI.

Turning to fiscal 2026, we see most clients rebalancing their spend as managed services and AI-integrated services help them reduce operational costs. In most cases, they will reinvest these savings to fund their modernization initiatives, which requires technology partners like CGI to help them realize their expected ROI.

In January, we begin a year-long celebration of our 50 years in business under the theme of Building what’s next. Focused on the future, this milestone underscores our continued commitment to serving as a partner, employer, and investment of choice.

Finally, we would like to thank Frank Witter, who is not seeking re-election as a member of the Board of Directors this coming year. We are grateful for his advice and leadership, as well as for his contributions to our success.

We also thank our stakeholders for their ongoing trust: our clients, for collaborating with us as your partner and expert of choice; our CGI Partners, for their talent and focus on achieving outcomes; and you, our fellow shareholders, for your continued confidence in our company.

It is recommended that you login at least fifteen minutes prior to the Meeting. Attending the Meeting virtually enables shareholders to ask questions in real time.

Notice and Access

CGI uses the Notice and Access rules adopted by Canadian securities regulators to reduce the volume of paper in the materials distributed for the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders. Instead of receiving this Management Proxy Circular with the form of proxy or voting instruction form, shareholders received a Notice of Meeting with instructions on how to access the remaining materials online. CGI intends to pay for intermediaries to deliver the Notice of Meeting and voting instruction form and other materials to non-objecting beneficial owners and objecting beneficial owners.

This Management Proxy Circular and other relevant materials are available on the internet at www.envisionreports.com/gib2025 as well as on the Canadian Securities Administrators’ website at www.sedarplus.ca. If you would like to receive a paper copy of the materials distributed for the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders by mail, you must request it. Requesting a paper copy is free of charge. Registered shareholders and non-objecting beneficial owners may request a paper copy of the materials by calling Computershare Investor Services Inc. (“Computershare”) toll free at 1-866-962-0498 (Canada and U.S.) or +1-514-982-7555 (international) and entering the control number indicated on the form of proxy or voting instruction form they received with the Notice of Meeting. Objecting beneficial owners may request a paper copy of the materials by calling Broadridge Investor Communications Corporation toll free at 1-877-907-7643 (Canada and U.S., in English or French), at +1-303-562-9306 (international, in French), or at +1-303-562-9305 (international, in English) and entering the control number indicated on the voting instruction form they received with the Notice of Meeting.

To ensure you receive the materials in advance of the voting deadline and Meeting date, all requests must be received no later than January 14, 2026.

Proxies

Solicitation of Proxies

The solicitation of proxies will be made primarily by mail for registered and non-registered shareholders and by e-mail for participants in CGI’s Share Purchase Plan. Proxies may also be solicited personally by e-mail or by phone by employees of the Company at minimal cost. The Company does not expect to pay any compensation for the solicitation of proxies, but will reimburse brokers and other persons holding shares for reasonable expenses for sending proxy materials to non-registered shareholders in order to obtain voting instructions.


© CGI Inc.		I 2025 MANAGEMENT PROXY CIRCULAR 2

The persons who may be appointed to act under the form of proxy or voting instruction form solicited by the management of the Company are all directors of the Company.

In order to be voted at the Meeting, a proxy must be received by Computershare by 11:00 a.m., Eastern Standard Time, on Tuesday, January 27, 2026. Proxies may also be received by the Corporate Secretary of the Company prior to the Meeting or any adjournment thereof at 1350 René-Lévesque Boulevard West, 25^th Floor, Montreal, Quebec, Canada, H3G 1T4, Attention: Corporate Secretary, at any time up to and including January 27, 2026, the last business day preceding the date of the Meeting.

The persons whose names are printed on the form of proxy or voting instruction form will vote all the shares in respect of which they are appointed to act in accordance with the instructions given on the form of proxy or voting instruction form. In the absence of a specified choice in relation to any matter to be voted on at the Meeting, or if more than one choice is indicated, the shares represented by the form of proxy or the voting instruction form will be voted:

FOR the election as directors of the thirteen persons nominated in this Management Proxy Circular;

FOR the appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as auditor; and

AGAINST the shareholder proposals attached as Appendix C.

Every proxy given to any person in the form of proxy or voting instruction form that accompanies the Notice of Meeting will confer discretionary authority with respect to amendments or variations to the items of business identified in the Notice of Meeting and with respect to any other matters that may properly come before the Meeting.

Appointment and Revocation of Proxies

All shareholders have the right to appoint themselves or any person to act on their behalf at the Meeting other than the persons whose names are printed in the form of proxy or voting instruction form that accompanies the Notice of Meeting. To exercise this right, each shareholder should insert a proxyholder’s name in the space provided for that purpose in the form of proxy or voting instruction form, or provide a revised proxy in proper form appointing the proxyholder. Non-registered shareholders located in the United States must follow the instructions under the heading How to Vote – Non-Registered Shareholders later in this document.

In addition to the first step above, shareholders who wish to appoint a proxyholder (including shareholders who wish to appoint themselves as a proxyholder) must visit https://www.computershare.com/CGI2025 and provide the required proxyholder contact information so that Computershare may provide the proxyholder with a four-letter code via email. Without the four-letter code, proxyholders will not be able to vote at the Meeting. Failure to register a proxyholder online will result in the proxyholder not being able to vote at the Meeting.

The steps described above must be completed prior to 11:00 a.m., Eastern Standard Time, on Tuesday, January 27, 2026, failing which a proxyholder will not be able to vote at the Meeting on the appointing shareholder’s behalf.

A proxy may be revoked at any time by the person giving it to the extent that it has not yet been exercised. If you are a registered shareholder and you want to revoke your proxy, you may do so by providing a new proxy form to Computershare at any time before 11:00 a.m., Eastern Standard Time, on Tuesday, January 27, 2026. A proxy may also be revoked by a registered shareholder by delivering a written notice to the Corporate Secretary of the Company at 1350 René-Lévesque Boulevard West, 25^th Floor, Montreal, Quebec, Canada, H3G 1T4, Attention: Corporate Secretary, which must be received at any time up to and including January 27, 2026, the business day preceding the date of the Meeting. A registered shareholder may also access the Meeting via the live video


3 2025 MANAGEMENT PROXY CIRCULAR I		© CGI Inc.

webcast to vote at the Meeting, which will revoke any previously submitted proxy. If you do not wish to revoke a previously submitted proxy nor ask questions at the Meeting, you can attend the Meeting as a guest, as guests can listen to the Meeting, but are not able to vote nor to submit questions.

If you are a non-registered shareholder and you want to revoke your proxy, contact your broker or other intermediary to find out what to do. Please note that your intermediary will need to receive any new instructions sufficiently in advance of the Meeting to act on them.

How to Vote

Only persons shown on the register of shareholders at the close of business on Monday, December 1, 2025, and duly appointed proxyholders (including non-registered shareholders who have duly appointed themselves as proxyholders), will be entitled to vote at the Meeting. The register of holders of Class A subordinate voting shares (“Class A Shares”) and Class B shares (multiple voting) (“Class B Shares”) are kept by CGI’s transfer agent, Computershare.

Registered Shareholders

You are a registered shareholder if your name appears on your share certificate or your direct registration statement. Your proxy form tells you whether you are a registered shareholder. If you are a registered shareholder, you will receive a form of proxy containing the relevant details concerning the business of the Meeting, including a control number and password (CGI2025) that must be used in order to vote by proxy in advance of the Meeting or to join the live video webcast the day of the Meeting to attend, ask questions and vote at the Meeting, as applicable.

Non-Registered Shareholders

Non-registered shareholders or “beneficial owners” are holders whose shares are held on their behalf through a “nominee” such as a bank, a trust company, a securities broker or other financial institution. When you receive a voting instruction form, this tells you that you are a non-registered shareholder. Most CGI shareholders hold their shares in this way. Non-registered shareholders must seek instructions from their nominees as to how to complete their voting instruction form if they wish to vote their shares themselves at the Meeting. Non-registered shareholders who received or who were given access to this Management Proxy Circular in a mailing from their nominee must adhere to the voting instructions provided to them by their nominee.

Non-registered shareholders must use the control number and password (CGI2025) on their voting instruction form to join the live video webcast. Non-registered shareholders who wish to vote at the Meeting during the live video webcast must appoint themselves by inserting their own name in the space provided on the voting instruction form and adhere to the signing and return instructions provided by their nominee. By doing so, non-registered shareholders are instructing their nominee to appoint them as proxyholder. In addition to the first step above, non-registered shareholders who wish to appoint a proxyholder (including non-registered shareholders who wish to appoint themselves as proxyholder) must visit https://www.computershare.com/CGI2025 and provide the required proxyholder contact information so that Computershare may provide the proxyholder with a four-letter code via email. Without the four-letter code, proxyholders will not be able to vote at the Meeting.

If you are a non-registered shareholder located in the United States and wish to attend, submit questions or vote at the Meeting or, if permitted, appoint a third party as your proxyholder, in addition to the steps described above


© CGI Inc.		I 2025 MANAGEMENT PROXY CIRCULAR 4

and under the heading Attending the Virtual Meeting, you must obtain a valid legal proxy form from your intermediary. Follow the instructions from your intermediary included with the legal proxy form and the voting instruction form sent to you, or contact your intermediary to request a legal proxy form if you have not received one. The legal proxy form will be mailed to the person and address written on the voting instruction form. After obtaining a valid legal proxy form from your intermediary, you must then submit such legal proxy form to Computershare. You can submit your proxy: by (a) email to: [email protected] (Subject Line: Legal Proxy); or (b) courier to Computershare Investor Services Inc., 320 Bay Street, 14^th Floor, Toronto, Ontario, Canada, M5H 4A6, Attention: Legal Proxy, and in both cases, must be received by no later than 11:00 a.m., Eastern Standard Time, on Tuesday, January 27, 2026. You will receive confirmation of your registration by email after Computershare receives your registration materials. Please make sure to register your appointment as a proxyholder at https://www.computershare.com/CGI2025. Without following this process, your duly appointed proxyholder will only be able to log in to the meeting as a guest and will not be able to vote or otherwise participate or exercise rights as proxyholder at the meeting. However, if you have received confirmation of registration of your legal proxy, your duly appointed proxyholder may attend and participate at the meeting. You must allow sufficient time to Computershare for the mailing and return of the legal proxy form by this deadline. If you have any questions, please contact the person who services your account.

Non-registered shareholders who have not duly appointed themselves as proxyholders will be able to attend the Meeting and ask questions, but will not be entitled to vote their shares at the Meeting.

Voting in Advance of the Meeting

Shareholders are strongly encouraged to vote in advance of the Meeting whether or not they are able to attend the Meeting (or any adjournment thereof) via the live video webcast. Below are the different ways in which registered and non-registered shareholders can give voting instructions, details of which are found on the form of proxy or voting instruction form provided, as applicable.

By Internet

If a shareholder elects to vote using the internet, the shareholder must access the following website: www.investorvote.com. Shareholders must follow the instructions that appear on the screen and refer to the form of proxy or voting instruction form, as applicable, for their control number.

By Phone

If a shareholder wishes to vote by phone, the shareholder must call the following toll-free number 1-866-732-VOTE (8683) (within North America) or +1-312-588-4290 (outside of North America). Shareholders must follow the instructions of the voice response system and refer to the form of proxy or voting instruction form, as applicable, for their control number.

By Mail

If a shareholder wishes to vote by mail, the shareholder must complete, date and sign the form of proxy or voting instruction form, as applicable, in accordance with the instructions set out on such form, and return it in the prepaid envelope provided.

Voting at the Meeting

Registered shareholders who wish to vote at the Meeting do not need to complete or return their proxy form. Non-registered shareholders who wish to vote at the Meeting must appoint themselves as proxyholder. The day of the Meeting, registered shareholders and non-registered shareholders who have duly appointed themselves as proxyholders will be able to vote via the live video webcast by completing a ballot online during the Meeting by visiting https://www.icastpro.ca/ukd54d and logging in using the control number and password (CGI2025) included on their proxy form, in the case of registered shareholders, or entering the four-letter code provided by Computershare via email and password (CGI2025), in the case of the proxyholder of non-registered shareholders, as applicable, as further described under the heading Attending the Virtual Meeting.

Non-registered shareholders who have not duly appointed themselves as proxyholder will be able to attend the Meeting, but will not be able to vote their shares at the Meeting.

Even if you currently plan to attend and vote at the Meeting, you should consider voting your shares in advance so that your vote will be counted if you later decide not to attend the Meeting.

The following summary of the material features of the Company’s authorized share capital is given subject to the detailed provisions of its articles.


© CGI Inc.		I 2025 MANAGEMENT PROXY CIRCULAR 6

Class A Shares and Class B Shares

Voting Rights

The holders of Class A Shares are entitled to one vote per share and the holders of Class B Shares are entitled to ten votes per share. As at December 1, 2025, 44.45% and 55.55% of the aggregate voting rights were attached to the outstanding Class A Shares and Class B Shares, respectively.

Subdivision or Consolidation

The Class A Shares or Class B Shares may not be subdivided or consolidated unless simultaneously the Class A Shares and the Class B Shares are subdivided or consolidated in the same manner and in such an event, the rights, privileges, restrictions and conditions then attaching to the Class A Shares and Class B Shares shall also attach to the Class A Shares and Class B Shares as subdivided or consolidated.

Rights upon Liquidation

Upon liquidation or dissolution of the Company or any other distribution of its assets among its shareholders for the purpose of winding up its affairs, all the assets of the Company available for payment or distribution to the holders of Class A Shares and holders of Class B Shares will be paid or distributed equally, share for share.

Conversion Rights of Class A Shares in Specific Circumstances

Subject to what is hereinafter set out, if a take-over bid or exchange bid or an issuer bid, other than an exempt bid (as defined in the articles of the Company), for the Class B Shares is made to the holders of Class B Shares without being made simultaneously and on the same terms and conditions to the holders of Class A Shares, each Class A Share shall become convertible into one Class B Share, from the date the offer is made, at the holder’s option, in order to entitle the holder to accept the offer. However, this right of conversion shall be deemed not to come into effect if the offer is not completed by its offeror or if the offer is rejected by one or several of the officers and full-time employees of the Company or its subsidiaries, and any corporate entity under their control, who are, as a group, owners, directly or indirectly, in any manner whatsoever, of more than 50% of the outstanding Class B Shares.

The articles of the Company contain a complete description of the types of bids giving rise to the rights of conversion, provide certain procedures to be followed to perform the conversion and stipulate that upon such a bid, the Company or the transfer agent will communicate in writing to the holders of Class A Shares full details as to the bid and the manner of exercising the right of conversion.

Conversion of Class B Shares

Each Class B Share may, from time to time, at the holder’s option, be converted into one Class A Share.

Issuance of Class B Shares

The Company’s articles provide for pre-emptive rights in favour of holders of Class B Shares. Therefore, the Company may not issue Class A Shares or securities convertible into Class A Shares without offering, in the manner determined by the Board of Directors, to each holder of Class B Shares, pro rata to the number of Class B Shares it holds, the right to subscribe concurrently with the issuance of Class A Shares or of securities convertible into Class A Shares, as the case may be, an aggregate number of Class B Shares or securities convertible into Class B Shares, as the case may be, sufficient to fully maintain its proportion of voting rights associated with the Class B Shares. The consideration to be paid for the issuance of each Class B Share or security convertible into Class B Shares, as the case may be, shall be equal to the issue price of each Class A Share or security convertible into Class A Shares then issued.


7 2025 MANAGEMENT PROXY CIRCULAR I		© CGI Inc.

The pre-emptive rights do not apply in the case of the issuance of Class A Shares or securities convertible into Class A Shares:

•

in payment of share dividends;

•

pursuant to the stock option plans or share purchase plans of the Company;

•

further to the conversion of Class B Shares into Class A Shares pursuant to the articles of the Company; or

•

further to the exercise of the conversion, exchange or acquisition rights attached to securities convertible into Class A Shares.

Any holder of Class B Shares may assign its pre-emptive rights to other holders of Class B Shares.

Dividends

The Class A Shares and Class B Shares participate equally, share for share, in any dividend which may be declared, paid or set aside for payment thereon. In fiscal 2024, the Board of Directors approved a dividend policy, which started as of the first quarter of the fiscal year ended September 30, 2025, under which the Company intends to pay, subject to the declaration by the Board of Directors, a quarterly cash dividend to holders of its Class A Shares and Class B Shares. For each quarter of fiscal 2025, the Company has declared and paid dividends of $0.15 per share to holders of Class A Shares and Class B Shares, the whole in accordance with its dividend policy. On November 4, 2025, the Board of Directors approved a cash dividend of $0.17 per share, which is payable on December 19, 2025, to shareholders of record as of the close of business on November 21, 2025. Future dividends and the amounts thereof will be at the discretion of the Board of Directors after taking into account the Company’s free cash flow, earnings, financial position, market conditions and other factors the Board of Directors deems relevant.

Amendments

The rights, privileges, conditions and restrictions attaching to the Class A Shares or Class B Shares may respectively be amended if the amendment is authorized by at least two-thirds of the votes cast at a meeting of holders of Class A Shares and Class B Shares duly convened for that purpose. However, if the holders of Class A Shares as a class or the holders of Class B Shares as a class were to be affected in a manner different from that of the other classes of shares, such amendment would, in addition, have to be authorized by at least two-thirds of the votes cast at a meeting of holders of shares of the class of shares so affected in a different manner.

Rank

Except as otherwise provided hereinabove, each Class A Share and each Class B Share carry the same rights, rank equally in all respects and are to be treated by the Company as if they constituted shares of a single class.

First Preferred Shares

The First Preferred Shares may be issued from time to time in one or more series and the Board of Directors of the Company has the right to determine, by resolution, the designation, rights, privileges, restrictions and conditions attaching to each series. The First Preferred Shares of each series rank equal to the First Preferred Shares of all other series and rank prior to the Second Preferred Shares, the Class A Shares and Class B Shares with respect to payment of dividends and repayment of capital. The holders of First Preferred Shares are entitled to receive notice of and attend any shareholders’ meetings and are entitled to one vote per share. As at December 1, 2025, no First Preferred Shares were outstanding.


© CGI Inc.		I 2025 MANAGEMENT PROXY CIRCULAR 8

Second Preferred Shares

The Second Preferred Shares may be issued from time to time in one or more series and the Board of Directors of the Company has the right to determine, by resolution, the designation, rights, privileges, restrictions and conditions attaching to each series. The Second Preferred Shares of each series rank equal to all other Second Preferred Shares of all other series and rank after the First Preferred Shares, but prior to the Class A Shares and Class B Shares with respect to payment of dividends and repayment of capital. The Second Preferred Shares are non-voting. As at December 1, 2025, no Second Preferred Shares were outstanding.

Normal Course Issuer Bid

As at January 23, 2025, there were 202,607,722 Class A Shares of the Company outstanding of which approximately 99.68% were widely held. The Company was authorized to purchase Class A Shares under the current NCIB commencing on February 6, 2025, and may continue to do so until February 5, 2026, or until such earlier date when the Company will either have acquired the maximum number of Class A Shares allowable under the NCIB or elected to terminate the bid.

Report of the Human Resources Committee

Executive Compensation Discussion and Analysis

Executive Compensation Process for the 2025 Fiscal Year

CGI’s executive compensation policy emphasizes incentive compensation linked to the success of the Company to ensure that the financial interests of the Company’s executives are closely aligned with those of shareholders. CGI measures business success on the basis of profit and growth as well as the satisfaction of our clients, and of our CGI Partners.

CGI’s compensation policy is rooted in its fundamental belief that a company with an inspiring dream, uncompromising integrity, a caring human resources philosophy and solid values is better able to attract and respond to the profound aspirations of high-caliber, competent people. These individuals in turn deliver high-quality services, in keeping with the Company’s profitability objectives. The growth and profitability generated as a result allows CGI to continue to offer its shareholders value for their investment.

This belief drives the Company’s compensation programs, which are designed to attract and retain the key talent CGI needs to remain competitive in a challenging market and achieve continued and profitable growth for its shareholders.

As per CGI’s compensation policy, the principles used to determine the compensation of the named executive officers (the President and Chief Executive Officer, the Executive Vice-President and Chief Financial Officer and the three other most highly compensated executive officers of the Company, hereafter referred to as the “Named Executive Officers”) are also applied to all management team members, taking into account the results of their respective business units. In the case of CGI’s senior executives, there is an added emphasis on closely aligning executives’ financial interests with those of shareholders through incentive compensation. The Named Executive Officers who are not directors of the Company are Messrs. Jean-Michel Baticle, President and Chief Operating Officer and President, Western and Southern Europe, and Steve Perron, Executive Vice-President and Chief Financial Officer, each of whom is proficient in both English and French.

The sections below outline the main features of CGI’s executive compensation policy and programs.

The Human Resources Committee of the Board of Directors

The Committee reviews management’s proposals and makes recommendations to the Board of Directors of the Company in relation to the compensation of certain senior executives, including the entitlements under short and long-term incentive and benefit plans and the corporate objectives that the Founder and Co-Chair of the Board of Directors, the Executive Chair of the Board of Directors, the President and Chief Executive Officer and other senior executives are responsible for achieving. Similarly, the Committee is responsible for approving and making recommendations in relation to the compensation of the Company’s outside directors and succession plans for senior executives.

The Committee is composed of Mses. Sophie Brochu, Chair of the Committee, Jacynthe Côté and Mary G. Powell, and Messrs. George A. Cope, Lead Director, and Michael B. Pedersen, all of whom are independent directors. The Committee held four regular meetings in fiscal 2025. Ms. Brochu’s role and responsibilities as Chair of the Committee are described later in this document in the report of the Corporate Governance Committee under the heading Role and Responsibilities of the Lead Director and Standing Committee Chairs. The members of the Committee have significant experience in matters relating to human resources management and executive compensation, which they have acquired in their role as senior executives or as members of the Human Resources Committee of other publicly listed issuers. Ms. Brochu was President and Chief Executive Officer of Hydro-Québec and of Énergir, Mr. Cope was President and Chief Executive Officer of BCE Inc. and Bell Canada, Ms. Côté was President and Chief Executive Officer of Rio Tinto Alcan, Mr. Pedersen was

The Committee also performs such other duties from time to time as assigned by the Board of Directors.

The Committee reports to the Board of Directors on its proceedings, the reviews it undertakes, and its recommendations.

In executing its mandate for fiscal 2025, the Committee retained the services of Willis Towers Watson, the Company’s external human resources consultant. Willis Towers Watson was first retained to provide consulting services in 1995. The services provided by Willis Towers Watson to the Committee include:

•

Providing the Committee with information on market trends and good practices on executive and director compensation;

•

Developing recommendations on the composition of the comparator groups of companies used as the basis for determining the compensation of the directors, the Founder and Co-Chair of the Board of Directors, the Executive Chair of the Board of Directors, the President and Chief Executive Officer and other senior executives of the Company;

•

Conducting market research and providing the Committee with data and analysis on compensation practices of companies in comparator groups to allow the Company to align its compensation policy with the market as it applies to the directors, the Founder and Co-Chair of the Board of Directors, the Executive Chair of the Board of Directors, the President and Chief Executive Officer and other senior executives; and

•

Reviewing the design of the annual and long-term incentive plans and providing data and analysis on comparator group company practices in this area.

To ensure the quality of services provided to the Committee by external human resources consultants, as well as their independence, the Committee has established the following processes as part of its annual work plan:

•

Once a year or as required, the Committee may request a statement of services from external selected consultants for the purpose of enabling the Committee to pre-approve all services that may be provided by such external consultants;

•

The Committee may request from each external consultant information concerning the consultant’s organizational structure and employees who provide services to the Committee so that the Committee may agree with the external consultant on measures to address any real or perceived conflicts of interest that may arise from the services provided by the external consultant to the Company at the request of management; and

•

The Committee reviews the external consultant independence policy annually to ensure that it continues to meet the Committee’s requirements.

(b)	The other fees billed by the human resources consultant for the years ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 were mainly in relation to investment matters and a global data survey agreement.

Composition of Comparator Groups

To determine appropriate compensation levels, the Named Executive Officers’ positions are compared with similar positions within a comparator group made up of leading companies in a number of industries. These companies include information technology consulting firms and companies similar to CGI in terms of size, and operational and managerial complexity. With 85.5% of its 2025 revenues generated outside Canada and constant international expansion, CGI must offer competitive compensation in each of the challenging markets in which it operates in order to recruit and retain high-performing executives. Generally, the Company’s major competitors are based either in the U.S., Europe or in the Asia Pacific region and they compete against CGI both in Canada and internationally. In response to this market reality, for the year ended September 30, 2025, the compensation of Named Executive Officers based in the U.S. and Canada is compared to market information from competitors based in the U.S. and Canada, while the compensation of the Named Executive Officer based in France is compared to market information from competitors based in France. The Committee reviews the composition of the comparator groups annually.

The selection criteria used to determine the companies included in the comparator groups are the following:

•

Autonomous and publicly-traded companies;

•

Large number of employees;

•

Business and strategic IT consulting, systems integration, managed IT and business process services and intellectual property solution providers;

•

International scope; and

•

Participation in the data bank for the relevant countries maintained by Willis Towers Watson, the Company’s external human resources consultant.

Each company in the following tables meets one or more of the foregoing criteria.

The foregoing comparator groups were used to determine the compensation of the Named Executive Officers for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2025.

Executive Compensation Components

CGI’s total executive compensation is made up of five components: base salary, short-term incentive, long-term incentive, benefits and perquisites. In keeping with the Company’s values, incentive compensation and share ownership are emphasized to ensure that executives’ interests are aligned with CGI’s profitability and revenue objectives, which in turn results in increased value for all shareholders under normal market conditions. CGI’s Named Executive Officers do not participate in any defined benefit pension plans.


Component	Description	Policy Alignment with Comparator Groups
Base Salary	Annual base salary based on each executive’s responsibilities, competencies and contribution to the Company’s success.	Aligned with median base salary offered in the comparator group.
Short-Term Incentive	Annual payout based on the achievement of performance objectives in accordance with the Profit Participation Plan.	Aligned with median short-term incentives of the comparator group when performance objectives are met.
Long-Term Incentive	Grants under the Share Option Plan and/or awards under the Share Unit Plan, as applicable in each case, based on achievement of performance objectives.	Aligned with median total compensation of the comparator group when business objectives are met, or above the median to recognize an executive’s exceptional performance.
Benefits	Group benefits and employer contributions under CGI’s Share Purchase Plan.	Aligned with median benefits of the comparator group.
Perquisites	Principal perquisites include company car and related expenses, relocation costs and medical exams.	Aligned with median perquisites of the comparator group.

Total compensation is aligned with the comparator groups by taking into account the number of years of experience in the role, aligned over time with the median of the total compensation of the comparator group when business objectives are met, while exceptionally allowing for compensation above the median as necessary to recognize an executive’s exceptional and sustained contribution to the Company’s success.

The following table shows for each Named Executive Officer the compensation components as a percentage of their total compensation, at target levels, for the year ended September 30, 2025:


Name and title as at September 30, 2025	Base Salary			Short-Term Incentive			Long-Term Incentive			Benefits and Perquisites
Serge Godin^(a) Founder and Co-Chair of the Board of Directors		8.86	%		17.72	%		73.08	%		0.34	%
François Boulanger President and Chief Executive Officer		15.05	%		20.32	%		63.96	%		0.67	%
Julie Godin^(b) Executive Chair of the Board of Directors		15.64	%		21.11	%		62.54	%		0.71	%
Jean-Michel Baticle President and Chief Operating Officer and President, Western and Southern Europe		19.86	%		21.85	%		57.89	%		0.40	%

(a)	Mr. Godin was appointed Founder and Co-Chair of the Board of Directors effective January 29, 2025.

(b)	Ms. Godin was appointed Executive Chair of the Board of Directors effective January 29, 2025.

Base Salary

The base salaries paid to Named Executive Officers are reviewed every year based on each executive’s scope of responsibilities, competencies and contribution to the Company’s success. The objective of CGI’s compensation policy for base salaries is to align them over time with the median base salary in the relevant comparator group, taking into account the number of years of experience in the role, while allowing for compensation to rise above the median in recognition of a particular executive’s exceptional and sustained contribution to the Company’s success. As part of the methodology used for fiscal 2025, the positions of Named Executive Officers were compared with generic executive positions in the compensation databases for the relevant countries maintained by Willis Towers Watson, the Company’s external human resources consultant. When differences in the level and scope of responsibilities for the comparable generic executive position are observed, the value of the generic position is adjusted to ensure that there is an appropriate basis for comparison.

Short-Term Incentive Plan – Profit Participation Plan

The Named Executive Officers participate in the Profit Participation Plan, a short-term incentive plan that pays an annual cash payout based on achievement of performance objectives as approved at the beginning of the fiscal year by the Board of Directors on the recommendation of the Committee. The Profit Participation Plan is designed to provide CGI’s management and CGI Partners with an incentive to increase the profitability and revenue of the Company.

Individual payouts are based on the executive’s profit participation target under the Profit Participation Plan and the achievement of performance objectives. The profit participation target varies as a percentage of base salary depending on the executive’s position and is determined in accordance with the performance factors that are directly linked to the level of achievement of the performance objectives set out in the Company’s annual budget and strategic plan. The Profit Participation Plan provides that the Founder and Co-Chair of the Board of Directors, the Executive Chair of the Board of Directors, the President and Chief Executive Officer or the Executive Vice-President and Chief Financial Officer may recommend to the Committee and to the Board of Directors to modify payment amounts or propose revised targets based on the overall performance of the Company, an individual’s performance, exceptional market conditions and other factors.

Executive profit participation targets are reviewed annually to ensure they remain aligned with the Company’s compensation policy and continue to be competitive with CGI’s applicable comparator group.

Performance Factors

The performance factors used to determine each Named Executive Officer’s profit participation target in fiscal 2025 were based on two separate measures: profitability and revenue. The achievement of profitability and revenue objectives determines the performance factors that are applied to calculate the annual payout under the Profit Participation Plan. Such determination may result in a reduction or an increase in the annual payout. In the latter case, the payout may not exceed three times the target. The relative performance of the companies in CGI’s comparator group is not a factor in determining the annual payout being paid under the Profit Participation Plan.

The profitability performance factor is based on the degree of achievement of the adjusted net earnings margin. The revenue performance factor is based on the achievement of constant currency revenue growth. Both factors are approved by the Board of Directors as part of the Company’s annual budget and strategic plan approval.

Only items that are the result of actual management operation activities are taken into account in the calculation of performance factors for compensation purposes. The performance factors are prorated between target levels.


29 2025 MANAGEMENT PROXY CIRCULAR I		© CGI Inc.

The profitability performance factor and revenue performance factor are established by determining the actual level of achievement of the budgeted profitability and revenue objectives which correspond to a pre-determined numerical performance factor. The pre-determined numerical factors for Named Executive Officers are set out in the table below:

(a)

Adjusted net earnings is a non-generally accepted accounting principle (“non-GAAP”) measure of net earnings, excluding restructuring, acquisition and related integration costs. Constant currency revenue growth is a non-GAAP measure of revenue growth before foreign currency translation impacts. Management believes these measures are useful for executive compensation purposes as they best reflect the Company’s performance and allow for better comparability from period to period. These measures do not have any standardized meaning under International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) Accounting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) and may not be comparable to similar measures used by other companies. A reconciliation of the adjusted net earnings to its closest IFRS Accounting Standards measure and a reconciliation of constant currency revenue growth to its closest IFRS Accounting Standards measure can be found on pages 29 and 21, respectively of the Company’s Management’s Discussion and Analysis for the years ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, which is available on the Canadian Securities Administrators’ website at www.sedarplus.ca.

Once the profitability performance factor and the revenue performance factor are established, the following formula is used to determine the payout under the Profit Participation Plan:

LOGO

The effect of the formula is to place importance on achieving both the revenue and the profitability objectives. If the minimum threshold for either profitability or revenue is not met, there is no annual payout under the Profit Participation Plan.

The profit participation targets of each of the Named Executive Officers were based on the formula above as it pertains solely to the overall Company performance.

CGI does not disclose specific profitability and revenue objectives because it considers that the information would place it at a significant competitive disadvantage if the objectives became known. Disclosing the specific performance objectives that are set as part of the Company’s annual budget and strategic planning process would expose CGI to serious prejudice and negatively impact its competitive advantage. For example, to the extent that the Company’s performance objectives became known, its ability to negotiate accretive business agreements could be significantly impaired, putting incremental pressure on its profit margins. In addition, CGI believes that disclosing performance objectives would be inconsistent with CGI’s policy of not providing guidance to the market and limiting the disclosure of forward-looking information.

The Founder and Co-Chair of the Board of Directors, the Executive Chair of the Board of Directors, the President and Chief Executive Officer and the Executive Vice-President and Chief Financial Officer may from time to time exercise their discretion to recommend to the Committee and the Board of Directors that incentive compensation under the Profit Participation Plan be adjusted in order to ensure that actual profit participation be equitable and balance the interests of each of the Company’s stakeholders based on the overall performance of the Company and exceptional market conditions.

For fiscal 2025, the profit participation targets and payouts received by the Named Executive Officers under the Profit Participation Plan are as follows:

Long-Term Incentive Plans

CGI’s long-term incentive plans are designed to ensure that executives’ interests are closely aligned with those of all shareholders and include the Share Option Plan for Employees, Officers and Directors of CGI Inc. and its Subsidiaries (the “Share Option Plan”) and the Share Unit Plan for Designated Leaders of CGI Inc. and its Subsidiaries (the “Share Unit Plan”). In line with practices among certain of the Company’s comparator groups, the Company’s current compensation practice is to grant, on a case-by-case basis, PSUs awarded under the Share Unit Plan as the long-term incentive component of certain of its senior executives’ compensation. As a result, for fiscal 2025, Named Executive Officers’ target long-term incentive compensation was composed solely of PSUs awarded under the Share Unit Plan.

Share Option Plan

The Share Option Plan is designed to ensure that executives’ interests are closely aligned with those of all shareholders. The Company’s practice is to apply performance vesting conditions for all stock options granted under the Share Option Plan. The percentage of stock options that become eligible to vest is based on the degree


31 2025 MANAGEMENT PROXY CIRCULAR I		© CGI Inc.

of achievement of profitability and growth objectives determined following the completion of the fiscal year and subject to adjustment in accordance with the Share Option Plan. Stock options that do not become eligible to vest are forfeited and cancelled.

Stock options that have become eligible to vest then typically vest on a time basis as follows: one-quarter when the fiscal year results are approved, one quarter on the second anniversary of the grant, one-quarter on the third anniversary of the grant, and the final quarter on the fourth anniversary of the grant. For fiscal 2025, Named Executive Officers’ target long-term incentive compensation did not include any awards under the Share Option Plan. For fiscal 2025, no stock options were granted under the Share Option Plan.

See the heading Key Features of CGI’s Long-Term Incentive Plans later in this document for a summary of the features of the Share Option Plan.

Share Unit Plan

Both PSUs and Restricted Share Units (“RSUs”) can be issued under the Share Unit Plan.

Each PSU entitles the holder to receive one Class A Share subject to the achievement of performance and time vesting conditions and to the terms and conditions set out in the Share Unit Plan.

PSUs have performance conditions that are determined by the Board of Directors at the time of each grant. CGI’s annual long-term incentive awards of PSUs are made at the beginning of the fiscal year. The percentage of PSUs that become eligible to vest is based on the degree of achievement of profitability and revenue objectives determined following the completion of the fiscal year and subject to adjustment in accordance with the Share Unit Plan. Both objectives are approved by the Board of Directors concurrently with the Company’s annual budget and strategic plan approval.

PSUs that become eligible to vest then vest on a time basis. PSUs that do not become eligible to vest under the Share Unit Plan are forfeited and cancelled.

Each RSU entitles the holder to receive one Class A Share subject to time vesting conditions and to the terms and conditions set out in the Share Unit Plan. RSUs are not subject to performance conditions. For fiscal 2025, no RSUs were granted under the Share Unit Plan.

PSUs and RSUs are settled with Class A Shares purchased in the open market by the plan trustees with funds provided by CGI.

See the heading Key Features of CGI’s Long-Term Incentive Plans later in this document for a summary of the features of the Share Unit Plan.

Award Date Fair Value

The accounting fair value of PSUs was determined in accordance with IFRS 2 as the market value of the underlying Class A Shares on the award date. The stock-based compensation cost related to PSUs recorded in costs of services, selling and administrative expenses takes into account the actual result of the performance-based vesting and amortizes the resulting net PSU value over the four-year period. Since fiscal 2018, the Company has used the accounting fair value of PSUs as the award date fair value for compensation purposes in order to align the earned compensation with performance results.

Performance Factors and Vesting Conditions

The performance factors used to determine the number of stock options or PSUs that will vest under CGI’s long-term incentive plans are based on two separate measures: profitability and revenue. The achievement of


© CGI Inc.		I 2025 MANAGEMENT PROXY CIRCULAR 32

profitability and revenue objectives determines the performance factors that are applied to calculate the number of PSUs or stock options that vest under CGI’s long-term incentive plans. The total percentage of PSUs or stock options eligible to vest is capped at 100%.

The profitability performance factor is based on the degree of achievement of the adjusted net earnings margin. The revenue performance factor is based on the degree of achievement of constant currency revenue growth. Both factors are approved by the Board of Directors concurrently with the Company’s annual budget and strategic plan approval. If the minimum threshold for profitability is not met, no PSUs or stock options become eligible to vest under the long-term incentive plans. The relative performance of the companies in CGI’s comparator groups is not a factor in determining the number of PSUs or stock options that will vest under CGI’s long-term incentive plans.

Only items that are the result of actual management operation activities are taken into account in the calculation of vesting conditions for compensation purposes. The performance factors are prorated between target levels.


Profitability		Revenue
Adjusted net earnings margin^(a)	Profitability Performance Factor	Constant currency revenue growth^(a)	Revenue Performance Factor
Budgeted margin objectives on a scale of five levels	0	Budgeted revenue objectives on a scale of five levels	0
	0.25		0.25
	0.50		0.75
	1.00		1.00
	1.25		1.25

(a)

Adjusted net earnings is a non-GAAP measure of net earnings, excluding restructuring, acquisition and related integration costs. Constant currency revenue growth is a non-GAAP measure of revenue growth before foreign currency translation impacts. Management believes these measures are useful for executive compensation purposes as they best reflect the Company’s performance and allow for better comparability from period to period. These measures do not have any standardized meaning under IFRS Accounting Standards as issued by IASB and may not be comparable to similar measures used by other companies. A reconciliation of the adjusted net earnings to its closest IFRS Accounting Standards measure and a reconciliation of constant currency revenue growth to its closest IFRS Accounting Standards measure can be found on pages 29 and 21, respectively, of the Company’s Management’s Discussion and Analysis for the years ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, which is available on the Canadian Securities Administrators’ website at www.sedarplus.ca.

Once the profitability performance factor and growth performance factor are established, the following formula is used to determine the proportion of performance-based vesting under CGI’s long-term incentive plans.

Long Term Incentive Plan Awards in Fiscal 2025

For fiscal 2025, an aggregate of 161,746 PSUs were awarded to the Named Executive Officers under the Share Unit Plan as part of their fiscal 2025 target compensation. The number of PSUs awarded was determined based


33 2025 MANAGEMENT PROXY CIRCULAR I		© CGI Inc.

on the long-term compensation value required to align the Named Executive Officer’s total compensation with the Company’s compensation policy. No stock options and no RSUs were granted to the Named Executive Officers as part of their fiscal 2025 target compensation. The details of these awards are shown in the Summary Compensation Table later in this document.

Based on the degree of achievement of profitability and revenue objectives in fiscal 2025, 99.1% of PSUs awarded to Ms. Godin and Messrs. Godin, Boulanger, Baticle and Perron in respect of the long-term incentive awards for fiscal 2025, became eligible to vest. PSUs granted in fiscal 2025 under the Share Unit Plan that are eligible to vest will vest on the fourth anniversary of the award.

A table showing all outstanding unvested PSU awards held as at September 30, 2025, by the Named Executive Officers as well as the market value of such unvested PSU as of such date is provided in Appendix A.

Total At Risk Compensation and Actual Payouts

A significant portion of the Named Executive Officers’ compensation, namely payments under the Profit Participation Plan and PSU awards under the Share Unit Plan, is performance-based and therefore “at risk”. The percentage of total compensation of the Named Executive Officers that was “at risk” in fiscal 2025 ranged from 74.73% to 90.80%.

The achievement of the performance factors under the Profit Participation Plan and the performance vesting conditions under the Share Option Plan and Share Unit Plan also present a meaningful challenge for the Company’s senior executives and management team because the Company consistently sets ambitious goals as part of its annual budget and strategic planning process. This is evidenced by the fact that the aggregate payout to the reported Named Executive Officers for fiscal 2025, 2024 and 2023 that was “at risk”, or subject to the achievement of performance factors or performance vesting conditions, can vary significantly and was respectively 86.71%, 62.50%, and 92.97% of the target “at risk” compensation.

The table below shows the portion of the total compensation “at risk” as well as the portion of that “at risk” compensation that was actually paid out to the Named Executive Officers for the 2025 fiscal year.

The Committee is responsible for ensuring that CGI’s executive compensation policies do not expose the Company to significant risks such as providing incentives for senior executives to engage in business strategies that could yield compensation for the executives, while negatively impacting the interests of the Company.

The Committee considers that the Company’s executive compensation policies, including those that relate to the portion of compensation for which the achievement of performance measures apply, do not expose the Company to significant risks. The short-term and long-term incentive performance-based compensation components require that the Company’s profitability and revenue objectives be met. Business strategies that impair the Company’s profitability or revenue, whether in the short or long-term, will not result in payouts to senior executives or management.

As per applicable securities regulations, all of the Company’s senior executives and directors are required to prepare and file reports disclosing their trading activities in the Company’s securities and the Company prepares and files the reports on their behalf. The Company therefore monitors all securities transactions by its senior executives and directors and also requires that they pre-clear their transactions with the Company.

CGI’s executive compensation policy emphasizes incentive compensation linked to the success of the Company to ensure that the financial interests of the Company’s executives are closely aligned with those of shareholders. CGI’s management team, including the Named Executive Officers, are compensated on the basis of metrics that the Company considers to be fundamental, namely the Company’s growth and profitability.

Since 1986, the year the Company became publicly listed, the price of CGI’s Class A Shares has increased on average by approximately 15.9% per year.

The following graph illustrates the relationship between the total compensation paid to the Company’s reported Named Executive Officers and cumulative total shareholder return over the period between October 1, 2020, and September 30, 2025.

Comparison of Total Compensation and Cumulative Total Shareholder Return

LOGO

The chart demonstrates the relationship between cumulative total shareholder return (as calculated on the performance graph earlier in this document) and the total compensation of the Named Executive Officers. Cumulative total shareholder return has generally increased significantly during the period from fiscal 2020 to fiscal 2024, and decreased in fiscal 2025, and total compensation has decreased or increased moderately from fiscal 2020 to fiscal 2025. Total compensation of the Named Executive Officers is linked to the performance of the Company but not directly to shareholder return.

Compensation of Named Executive Officers

The Summary Compensation Table that follows shows detailed information on total compensation in the form provided for by securities regulations for Ms. Julie Godin and Messrs. Serge Godin, François Boulanger, Jean-Michel Baticle and Steve Perron, for services rendered during the fiscal years ended September 30, 2025, 2024 and 2023.

The content of the table can result in an overstatement of the compensation awarded to CGI’s Named Executive Officers. The overstatement arises because securities regulation requires that for PSU awards (referred to as share-based awards), the amount of compensation shown must be the grant date fair value. In the case of CGI’s compensation policies, all long-term incentive compensation is subject to performance vesting conditions. As a portion of PSUs awarded for fiscal 2025 failed to become eligible to vest as a result of the degree of achievement of performance objectives, such portion of PSUs awarded has been forfeited and cancelled. Therefore, the total compensation amount shown in this table overstates the true total compensation received by the Company’s Named Executive Officers.

Key Features of CGI’s Long-Term Incentive Plans

Share Option Plan

The Share Option Plan is governed by the Board of Directors. The Committee makes recommendations to the Board of Directors in relation to the Share Option Plan and to grants of stock options, and is responsible for overseeing its administration. The Board of Directors has the ultimate and sole power and authority to grant stock options under the Share Option Plan and to interpret the terms and conditions of stock options that have been granted. The Board of Directors grants stock options by identifying the CGI Partners, directors, and officers of eligible CGI entities who are to receive stock options, including the number of stock options, the subscription price, the stock option period and the vesting conditions. The determinations, designations, decisions and interpretations of the Board of Directors are binding and final. Management of the Company looks after the day-to-day administration of the Share Option Plan. The total number of Class A Shares authorized to be issued under the Share Option Plan is 53,600,000, being 24.36% of the issued and outstanding Class A Shares and Class B Shares as at September 30, 2025. As at September 30, 2025, 2,912,473 stock options were outstanding under the Share Option Plan, representing approximately 1.32% of the issued and outstanding Class A Shares and Class B Shares, all of which were vested as of September 30, 2025. As at such date, a total of 15,371,067 stock options remained issuable under the Share Option Plan, representing approximately 6.98% of the issued and outstanding Class A Shares and Class B Shares.

The maximum number of stock options that may be issued in the aggregate to any single individual under the Share Option Plan cannot exceed 5% of the total number of Class A Shares and Class B Shares issued and outstanding at the time of the grant. The number of Class A Shares issuable to insiders in the aggregate, at any time, pursuant to the Share Option Plan and any other securities-based compensation arrangement cannot exceed 10% of the Class A Shares and Class B Shares issued and outstanding. The number of Class A Shares issued to insiders within any one-year period pursuant to the Share Option Plan and any other securities-based compensation arrangement cannot exceed 10% of the Class A Shares and Class B Shares issued and outstanding.

For fiscal 2025, no stock options were granted under the Share Option Plan. The following table discloses the burn rate for each of the three most recently completed fiscal years for the Share Option Plan of the Company:


Burn Rate	2025			2024			2023

Under the Share Option Plan, the Board of Directors may at any time amend, suspend or terminate the Share Option Plan, in whole or in part, subject to obtaining any required approval from the TSX, the Company’s shareholders or other regulatory authorities. For more information concerning the rules to amend the Share Option Plan, please refer to the heading Amendments to Share Option Plan later in this document. Stock options may not be assigned, pledged or otherwise encumbered other than by will or in accordance with the laws relating to successions.

Under the Share Option Plan, the Board of Directors, on the recommendation of the Committee, may grant to eligible participants stock options to purchase Class A Shares. The exercise price of the stock options granted is determined by the Board of Directors and cannot be lower than the closing price of the Class A Shares on the TSX on the trading day immediately preceding the day on which the stock options are granted. The Board of Directors also determines the applicable stock option period and vesting rules.

CGI Partners, officers, and directors of the Company may receive stock options under the Share Option Plan. The Board of Directors made the decision to cease granting stock options to outside directors effective October 1, 2015.

Stock options that have been granted under the Share Option Plan cease to be exercisable and all rights under those stock options lapse upon the expiry of their term, which cannot exceed ten years from their date of grant.

Upon resignation or termination, stock options that have not vested are forfeited and cancelled, and vested stock options must be exercised during a 90-day period following termination or resignation.

Our retiring CGI Partners who meet the eligibility criteria set out in the Share Option Plan, directors who leave the Board of Directors and the estates of deceased stock option holders benefit from the automatic vesting of stock options that have become eligible to vest in accordance with performance vesting rules, but that have yet to vest due to time-based vesting. Those stock options must be exercised within 90 days in the case of retirement or 180 days if the stock option holder dies, subject to the extension of the exercise periods explained in more detail below. The Board of Directors, on the recommendation of the Committee, has the discretion to vary these periods and to accelerate the vesting period, provided that the maximum term for any stock option is ten years from the time it is granted.

The Company does not provide any financial assistance to participants under the Share Option Plan.

Blackout Periods

In keeping with CGI’s Insider Trading and Blackout Periods Policy, stock options may not be exercised by insiders when a trading blackout period is in effect. If the date on which a stock option expires occurs during a blackout period or within ten business days after the last day of a blackout period, the date of expiry of the stock option will be the tenth business day following the termination of the blackout period.

Extensions for Length of Service

Our retiring CGI Partners who meet the eligibility criteria set out in the Share Option Plan, directors and officers, as well as the estates of deceased stock option holders earn one day of extension for every three days of service to the Company, up to a maximum extension period of three years. The extension period is earned pro-rata day by day during the stock option holder’s service to the Company. The extension period for length of service cannot extend the life of a stock option beyond the period of time determined by the Board of Directors as the stock option term and, which may not exceed ten years from the date of grant.

Amendments to Share Option Plan

The Board of Directors, on the recommendation of the Committee, may amend, suspend or terminate the Share Option Plan, or amend any term of an issued and outstanding stock option provided that no amendment, suspension or termination may be made without:

•

obtaining approval of the shareholders of the Company, except when approval is not required under the terms of the Share Option Plan, as explained in more detail below;

•

obtaining any required approval of any applicable regulatory authority or stock exchange; and

•

in the case of issued and outstanding stock options, obtaining the consent or, subject to regulatory approval, the deemed consent of the concerned optionee in the event that the amendment materially prejudices the optionee’s rights.

Shareholder approval is not required with respect to the following amendments, in as much as the amendment is in accordance with applicable regulatory requirements:

•

changing the eligibility for, and limitations on, participation in the Share Option Plan;

•

modifying the periods during which stock options may be exercised, subject to (i) the stock option period terminating on or before the tenth anniversary of the date of the grant of the stock option and subject to the effect of blackout periods, and (ii) a maximum stock option exercise period extension of three years;

•

changing the terms on which stock options may be granted and exercised including, without limitation, the provisions relating to the price at which shares may be purchased under the Share Option Plan, to the extent that the subscription price is not reduced, vesting, expiry, assignment and the adjustments to be made in the event of certain changes such as stock splits that affect all shareholders;

•

making amendments that are necessary to comply with applicable law or the requirements of any applicable regulatory authority or stock exchange;

•

correcting or rectifying any ambiguity, defective provision, error or omission in the Share Option Plan; and

•

changing the provisions of the Share Option Plan that relate to its administration.

Finally, any amendment that would reduce the subscription price of an issued and outstanding stock option, lead to a significant or unreasonable dilution of the issued and outstanding shares, extend the expiry date of stock options held by insiders beyond the exercise periods contemplated under the Share Option Plan, or provide additional material benefits to insiders of the Company, requires shareholder approval.

Share Unit Plan

The Share Unit Plan is governed by the Board of Directors and the Committee may make recommendations to the Board of Directors in relation to the Share Unit Plan and to awards of PSUs and RSUs. The Board of Directors has the ultimate and sole power and authority to award PSUs and RSUs under the Share Unit Plan and to interpret the terms and conditions of PSUs and RSUs that have been awarded.

Under the Share Unit Plan, the Board of Directors may at any time amend, suspend or terminate the Share Unit Plan, in whole or in part, or amend any term of any issued and outstanding awards including the earning, vesting and expiry of an outstanding award. PSUs and RSUs may not be assigned, pledged or otherwise encumbered other than by will or in accordance with the laws relating to successions.

Under the Share Unit Plan, the Board of Directors may award PSUs and RSUs to executives and to other eligible participants. Each PSU or RSU entitles the participant to receive one Class A Share, subject to time vesting conditions and, as applicable in respect of PSUs only, the achievement of performance objectives.

Following an award of PSUs or RSUs, the applicable plan trustee purchases in the open market the shares required to fulfill its delivery obligations on settlement. The applicable plan trustee holds the shares in trust for the purposes of the Share Unit Plan.

Subject to trading blackout periods, PSUs and RSUs are settled within 30 days of vesting. On the settlement date, participants receive from the applicable plan trustee a number of Class A Shares equal to the number of PSUs or RSUs that have vested, less any Class A Shares withheld to satisfy tax obligations. Participants under the Share Unit Plan may elect to defer the settlement of PSUs or RSUs to a later date, which cannot be later than the expiry date of the PSUs or RSUs.

Upon resignation or termination, PSUs and RSUs that have not vested (including, for greater certainty, any earned or unearned PSUs) expire and are forfeited and cancelled. PSUs and RSUs that have vested are settled in accordance with the Share Unit Plan.

Participants who retire and meet the eligibility criteria set out in the Share Unit Plan, and the estates of deceased participants, benefit from the automatic vesting of RSUs and automatic vesting of PSUs that have become eligible to vest in accordance with performance vesting conditions, but that have yet to vest due to time-based vesting. Those PSUs and RSUs are settled in accordance with the Share Unit Plan.


© CGI Inc.		I 2025 MANAGEMENT PROXY CIRCULAR 42

PSUs and RSUs expire on the business day preceding December 30 of the third calendar year following the end of the fiscal year during which the PSU or RSU award is made. On the expiry date, all remaining PSUs in the participant’s account that are eligible to vest but that have not yet vested, and all remaining RSUs, are automatically vested and settled.

In accordance with the terms of the Share Unit Plan, participants as of the record date set for which cash dividends are paid on Class A Shares shall, unless otherwise determined by the Board of Directors, receive, on such dividend payment date, dividend equivalents in the form of additional PSUs and/or RSUs (including fractional PSUs and/or RSUs) (“Dividend Equivalents”). The Dividend Equivalents are subject to the same conditions as the underlying PSUs and/or RSUs with respect to which the Dividends Equivalents were credited, including, without limitation, any vesting conditions set forth in the Share Unit Plan and the provisions governing the time and form of settlement applicable to the underlying PSUs and/or RSUs. For fiscal 2025, 8,588 Dividend Equivalents were granted under the Share Unit Plan.

The Company does not provide any financial assistance to participants under the Share Unit Plan.

Blackout Periods

In keeping with CGI’s Insider Trading and Blackout Periods Policy, there cannot be any settlement of PSUs or RSUs under the Share Unit Plan when a trading blackout period is in effect. If the date of settlement of a PSU or RSU falls during a blackout period, such date will be postponed until the first business day following the termination of the blackout period or the expiry of any regulatory notice period, as applicable.

Termination Benefits

The Named Executive Officers do not benefit from special contractual rights upon employment termination. They are therefore entitled to the same rights as those available to all our CGI Partners under the laws applicable to their employment. The provisions that apply to termination of employment under the Share Option Plan and under the Share Unit Plan apply in the same way to all participants under those plans and they are described above under the headings Share Option Plan and Share Unit Plan.

Compensation of Directors

Board of Directors and Standing Committee Fees

Effective October 1, 2024, the Board retainer was increased from $225,000 to $250,000. All other retainers and fees remain unchanged.

For fiscal 2025, Ms. Julie Godin and Messrs. Serge Godin and François Boulanger were not compensated for their role as directors of the Company.

The compensation paid to the outside directors consists of a flat fee structure. The following table sets out the elements of the compensation paid to outside directors for the year ended September 30, 2025:


Component	Amount
Board Retainer (includes membership in Committees)	$	250,000
Lead Director	$	65,000
Committee Chair Retainer	$	35,000

Directors must receive at least half of their Board retainer in DSUs (see the heading Deferred Stock Units Plan and Deferred Stock Units Granted to Directors later in this document), subject to the exceptions listed below. The remaining half of the Board of Directors retainer and the other retainers may also be payable in DSUs at the

election of the director. A director can elect to receive the entire amount of the Board of Directors retainer in cash instead of in DSUs if (i) the director is not a resident of Canada for income tax purposes, (ii) the director purchased in the open market the same number of Class A Shares he or she would have received in the form of DSUs, or (iii) the director is otherwise exempted by the Board of Directors. Directors who must travel significant distances to attend meetings of the Board of Directors and its standing committees also receive long distance travel allowances.

For the year ended September 30, 2025, the compensation paid to directors was as follows:

Deferred Stock Units Plan and Deferred Stock Units Granted to Directors

CGI’s deferred stock unit plan for members of the Board of Directors (the “DSU Plan”) provides non-cash compensation to directors. The DSU Plan is governed by the Board of Directors and the Committee may make recommendations to the Board of Directors in relation to the DSU Plan and to awards of DSUs. The Board of


© CGI Inc.		I 2025 MANAGEMENT PROXY CIRCULAR 44

Directors has the ultimate and sole power and authority to award DSUs under the DSU Plan and to interpret the terms and conditions of DSUs that have been awarded. Management of the Company is responsible for the day-to-day administration of the DSU Plan.

The Board of Directors may at any time amend or terminate the DSU Plan, including to suspend or limit the right of directors to participate in the DSU Plan. DSUs may not be assigned, sold or otherwise disposed of, except by will or in accordance with the laws relating to successions.

The number of DSUs credited to a director on each retainer payment date is equal to the amount of the retainer due to be paid in DSUs divided by the closing price of the Class A Shares on the TSX on the day immediately preceding the retainer payment date. Once credited, the value of the DSUs credited to a director’s DSU account is determined based on the market price of the Class A Shares.

The value of DSUs credited to the director’s account is payable only after the director has ceased to be a member of the Board of Directors. The amount paid at the time of redemption corresponds to the number of DSUs accumulated by the director multiplied by the closing price of the Class A Shares on the payment date. The amount is paid in cash and is subject to applicable withholding taxes.

In accordance with the terms of the DSU Plan, directors as of the record date set for which cash dividends are paid on Class A Shares shall, unless otherwise determined by the Board of Directors, receive, on such dividend payment date, dividend equivalents in the form of additional DSUs (including fractional DSUs) (“DSU Dividend Equivalents”). The DSU Dividend Equivalents are subject to the same conditions as the underlying DSUs with respect to which the DSU Dividend Equivalents were credited and shall be redeemed on the same basis as the underlying DSUs in accordance with the DSU Plan, including, without limitation, the provisions governing the time and form of settlement applicable to the underlying DSUs. For fiscal 2025, 397 DSU Dividend Equivalents were granted under the DSU Plan.

Stock Options Held by Directors

Up until fiscal 2015, members of the Board of Directors were entitled to grants of stock options under the Share Option Plan. Each such stock option was issued with a ten-year exercise period and a four-year vesting period and the exercise price of all options granted to directors was equal to the closing price of the Class A Shares on the TSX on the trading day immediately preceding the date of the grant.

See the table in Appendix B for an overview of all outstanding stock options held as at September 30, 2025, by the members of the Board of Directors who are not Named Executive Officers as well as the in-the-money value of such stock options and the aggregate value of outstanding and vested DSUs held in respect of their services for completed fiscal years. For members of the Board of Directors who are Named Executive Officers, please refer to the table in Appendix A.

Additional Disclosure Relating to Directors and Named Executive Officers

As at December 1, 2025, no directors, Named Executive Officers, former directors or former senior officers of the Company were indebted to the Company.

To the best knowledge of the Company and based upon information provided by each nominee director, no such nominee is, as at the date of this Management Proxy Circular, or has been within ten years before the date of this Management Proxy Circular a director or executive officer of any company (including the Company) that, while such person was acting in that capacity or within a year of that person ceasing to act in that capacity, became bankrupt, made a proposal under any legislation relating to bankruptcy or insolvency or was subject to or instituted any proceedings, arrangements or compromise with creditors or had a receiver, receiver manager or trustee appointed to hold its assets.

Report of the Corporate Governance Committee

The Committee has responsibility for all corporate governance matters including making recommendations to the Board of Directors in relation to the composition of the Board of Directors and its standing committees. The Committee also administers the self-assessment process for the Board of Directors, its standing committees and individual directors.


© CGI Inc.		I 2025 MANAGEMENT PROXY CIRCULAR 46

The Committee is composed of Messrs. Michael B. Pedersen, Chair of the Committee, and George A. Cope, Lead Director, and Mses. Sophie Brochu, Jacynthe Côté and Mary G. Powell, all of whom are independent directors. The Committee held three regular meetings during fiscal 2025. Mr. Pedersen’s role and responsibilities as Chair of the Committee are described under the heading Role and Responsibilities of the Lead Director and Standing Committee Chairs later in this document.

The role and responsibilities of the Committee are contained in the Committee’s charter, which is incorporated by reference in this Management Proxy Circular (see the heading Mandate, Structure and Composition of CGI’s Board of Directors). The Committee’s charter is available on CGI’s website at www.cgi.com. The role and responsibilities of the Committee include:

•

developing the Company’s approach to governance issues and the Company’s response to corporate governance requirements and guidelines;

•

reviewing the composition and contribution of the Board of Directors, its standing committees and members, and recommending Board nominees;

•

reviewing the Company’s Environmental (including climate change), Social and Governance (ESG) strategies, objectives, policies and practices;

•

overseeing the orientation and continuing education program for directors;

•

reviewing the Company’s policies and processes related to the Company’s purpose as an organization, which is to seek the best equilibrium between its three stakeholders and the communities in which its CGI Partners live and work;

•

carrying out the annual Board of Directors self-assessment process; and

•

helping to maintain an effective interaction between the Board of Directors and management.

Corporate Governance Practices

Adherence to high standards of corporate governance is a hallmark of the way CGI conducts its business. The disclosure that follows sets out CGI’s corporate governance practices. CGI is a foreign private issuer, as defined under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and files disclosure documents in accordance with the multijurisdictional disclosure system (MJDS). As such, many of the corporate governance rules applicable to U.S. domestic companies are not applicable to CGI. However, CGI’s corporate governance practices generally conform to those followed by U.S. domestic companies under the NYSE listing standards, other than with respect to certain specific rules, including that CGI requires shareholder approval of share compensation arrangements involving the issuances of new shares, but does not require such approval if the compensation arrangement involves only shares purchased in the open market, consistent with the laws applicable to CGI.

CGI’s Shareholders

CGI’s shareholders are the first and most important element in the Company’s governance structures and processes. At each Annual General Meeting of Shareholders, the Company’s shareholders elect the members of the Company’s Board of Directors and give them a mandate to manage and oversee the management of the Company’s affairs for the coming year. Shareholders have the option of withholding their votes for individual directors, should they wish to do so.

In the normal course of operations, certain corporate actions which may be material to CGI are initiated from time to time by the Company’s senior management and, at the appropriate time, are submitted to CGI’s Board of Directors for consideration and approval. When appropriate, such matters are also submitted for consideration and approval by CGI’s shareholders. All such approvals are sought in accordance with the charters of the Board of Directors and its standing committees, CGI’s corporate governance practices and applicable corporate and


47 2025 MANAGEMENT PROXY CIRCULAR I		© CGI Inc.

securities legislation and regulations. Mr. Serge Godin, CGI’s Founder and Co-Chair of the Board of Directors, is a director of CGI and, as at December 1, 2025, beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, or exercised control or direction over, shares of CGI representing approximately 55.62% of the votes attached to all of the Company’s outstanding voting shares.

As with the Company’s other stakeholders, its clients and its CGI Partners, the Company constantly solicits feedback from shareholders as well as from the investment community. This feedback is an integral input to our strategic planning process and assists the Company to continuously improve its investor relations program, financial disclosure, and to compare its performance objectively against other publicly traded companies. The Company has a Shareholder Partnership Management Framework (“SPMF”) which describes the management of its information and relationship with its investors beyond the prescribed activities associated with corporate governance, transparency and the disclosure of results. The SPMF structures the processes and information flows between CGI and its shareholders as well as the investment community, including both buy-side (institutional investors) and sell-side (investment dealers) research analysts. Through interactions with the investment community, governed by the SPMF, suggestions for improvement received are acted upon as a means of assuring continuous improvement. During fiscal 2025, the Company had over 350 interactions with shareholders and other investors worldwide, as well as sell-side research analysts. The Company is ISO 9001 certified for the application of the SPMF in its operations and for the management of its relationship with its shareholders.

In addition to the SPMF process, any shareholder of CGI who wishes to contact CGI’s independent directors directly may do so by e-mail sent to the Lead Director at [email protected] or by using the contact page for the Lead Director on CGI’s website at www.cgi.com.

Shareholder Satisfaction Assessment Program

Since fiscal 2019, the Company includes a Shareholder Satisfaction Assessment Program (“SSAP”) questionnaire as part of its SPMF processes. The SSAP questionnaire solicits direct feedback from shareholders on key corporate governance practices, including in respect of executive compensation, and requests shareholder ratings of governance practices on a 10-point scale. With respect to institutional investors, the SSAP is provided directly to the individuals responsible for the investment in the Company and not to proxy departments or external advisors as they are less likely to have a complete understanding of CGI’s business, operations and functioning. The SSAP was provided to shareholders and other investors with whom SPMF meetings were held in fiscal 2025. The average SSAP score of the Company in fiscal 2025 was 9.0/10 and few concerns were raised by shareholders with respect to the Company’s corporate governance practices. The Company is committed to maintaining an open and transparent dialogue with its shareholders and addressing their concerns, including with respect to executive compensation. The Company believes that the measures in place are more meaningful than a simple binary advisory vote.

The Company will continue to use the SSAP questionnaire in fiscal 2026 to solicit direct feedback on its corporate governance practices with a view to tracking shareholder feedback over time on key corporate governance issues, such as the appropriateness of executive compensation. Shareholders of CGI who wish to participate in the SSAP process directly may contact CGI’s Investor Relations department by sending an e-mail to [email protected] or as follows:

Majority Voting Policy

The Company has adopted a Majority Voting Policy for Directors (the “Majority Voting Policy”) to ensure that the Board of Directors of the Company remains composed of directors elected by a majority of the votes cast in favour of their election.

In an uncontested election of directors of the Company, a nominee for election to the Board of Directors shall promptly offer to resign by tendering a resignation letter to the Executive Chair or the Co-Chair of the Board of Directors following the shareholders meeting at which the election took place if the number of votes that have been withheld from the director is greater than the number of votes cast in favour of the director. The Committee will meet promptly following the receipt of the resignation to consider the director’s offer to resign.

The Committee will recommend to the Board of Directors that the resignation be accepted unless the Committee determines that circumstances exist that justify the Committee’s recommendation that the resignation not be accepted. The Board of Directors will act on the Committee’s recommendation within 90 days following the shareholders’ meeting at which the director was elected. In deciding whether to accept the recommendation of the Committee, the Board of Directors will consider the factors examined by the Committee and may in addition consider any information it determines in its sole discretion to be relevant to its decision. The Board of Directors will accept the resignation unless it determines that circumstances justify otherwise. Following its decision, the Board of Directors will issue a press release concerning its decision, stating the reasons for not accepting the resignation if that is the case, a copy of which shall be promptly provided to the TSX.

A director who is required to offer a resignation in accordance with the Majority Voting Policy may attend and address the meeting or meetings of the Committee and of the Board of Directors convened to consider the resignation, but shall withdraw from the meeting during the deliberations and shall not vote on the matter. A director who fails to offer to resign in accordance with the Majority Voting Policy will not be re-nominated by the Board of Directors for election by the shareholders.

Clawback Policy

The Company has adopted an incentive compensation clawback policy (the “Clawback Policy”) which mandates the Board of Directors to require the reimbursement of short-term and long-term incentive compensation received by certain officers and other of our CGI Partners, if such compensation was paid in whole or in part as a result of gross negligence, intentional misconduct, theft, embezzlement, fraud or other serious misconduct, or in the event of a restatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements resulting from material non-compliance with any financial reporting requirements under applicable laws, including any required accounting restatement to correct an error in previously issued annual or interim financial statements that is material to such previously issued financial statements, or that would result in a material misstatement if the error were corrected in the current period or left uncorrected in the current period.

The Clawback Policy applies to any officer of the Company and any other individual who may be designated from time to time by the Board of Directors and includes compensation under any short-term or long-term incentive plan, including the Profit Participation Plan, the Share Option Plan, the Share Unit Plan and any other compensation that is based on the attainment of a financial reporting measure. Recovery under the Clawback Policy is limited to compensation paid or granted to, or received or earned by, or vested in favour of any covered leader, based wholly or in part upon the attainment of a financial reporting measure, during the three financial years immediately preceding the restatement of the annual or interim financial statements and may be implemented through various forms, including direct reimbursement, deduction from salary or future payments, grants or awards of incentive compensation, or cancellation or forfeiture of vested or unvested stock options, PSUs or any other incentive awards held by the individual.


49 2025 MANAGEMENT PROXY CIRCULAR I		© CGI Inc.

Insider Trading and Blackout Periods Policy

The Company has adopted an Insider Trading and Blackout Periods Policy which is designed to prevent improper trading in the securities of CGI and the improper communication of privileged or material information with respect to CGI that has not been generally disclosed, including compliance with insider trading and tipping rules. Under the policy, those who normally have access to material information that has not been generally disclosed may only trade in CGI securities within the period beginning on the third business day following the release of CGI’s quarterly financial results and fiscal year-end results and ending at the close of business on the fourteenth calendar day preceding the end of the following fiscal quarter. Discretionary blackout periods and restrictions on trading in securities applicable to certain designated employees may also be prescribed from time to time for such period of time as is deemed necessary as a result of special circumstances relating to the Company. The policy also provides processes for the pre-clearance of trades in CGI securities and for reporting by the reporting insiders of the Company.

The Insider Trading and Blackout Periods Policy contains anti-hedging restrictions to ensure that senior executives, including the Chief Executive Officer, are restricted from engaging in short sales, transactions in derivatives in respect of Company’s securities or any other hedging or equity monetization transaction in which the individual’s economic interest and risk exposure in Company securities are changed.

Mandate, Structure and Composition of the Board of Directors

The Committee and the Board of Directors are of the view that the size and composition of the Board of Directors and its standing committees are well suited to the circumstances of the Company and allow for the efficient functioning of the Board of Directors as an independent decision-making body.

Board of Directors and Committee Charters

Each standing committee operates according to its charter approved by the Board of Directors which sets out the committee’s duties and responsibilities.

The Board of Directors’ charter and the charter of each of the standing committees require that they be reviewed annually. As part of that process each standing committee undertakes a review of its mandate and tables any recommendations for changes with the Committee. The Committee reviews the submissions of the standing committees and also reviews the Board of Directors’ charter. The Committee then makes a recommendation to the Board of Directors based on the conclusion of the review. The Board of Directors takes the Committee’s recommendation into account in making such changes as it determines to be appropriate.

The Board of Directors and standing committee charters are attached as Appendix A to CGI’s Annual Information Form for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2025 (the “2025 Annual Information Form”), which is available on the Canadian Securities Administrators’ website at www.sedarplus.ca and on CGI’s website at www.cgi.com. A copy of the 2025 Annual Information Form will be provided to shareholders by CGI upon request. The charters of the Board of Directors and its standing committees are hereby incorporated by reference from Appendix A to the 2025 Annual Information Form.


© CGI Inc.		I 2025 MANAGEMENT PROXY CIRCULAR 50

The key responsibilities of each standing committee are summarized in the reports contained in this Management Proxy Circular and each standing committee is composed entirely of independent directors.

Role and Responsibilities of the Founder and Co-Chair of the Board of Directors, the Executive Chair of the Board of Directors, and the President and Chief Executive Officer

The Board of Directors has delegated the day-to-day management of the business of the Company to CGI management in accordance with the Company’s Operations Management Framework that was adopted by the Board of Directors. The Operations Management Framework sets out the overall authority of the Company’s management team as well as the level of management approval required for the various types of operations and transactions in the ordinary course of the Company’s business.

The role of Founder and Co-Chair of the Board of Directors allows Mr. Serge Godin to devote his time to the development and implementation of strategic initiatives, including strengthening the Company’s partnerships with existing clients and fostering key relationships that lead to new business, including large managed IT services contracts and strategic mergers.

As part of her role as Executive Chair of the Board of Directors, Ms. Julie Godin guides and collaborates with the Board of Directors and the executive team to set the strategic direction of the Company, including overseeing the development and execution of its rolling three-year strategic plan. Ms. Godin focuses on achieving results for and maintaining equilibrium among CGI’s three stakeholders – clients, CGI Partners and shareholders – to ensure each stakeholders’ long-term success.

The nature of the responsibilities of both the Founder and Co-Chair of the Board of Directors and the Executive Chair of the Board of Directors are such that they are senior executive officers of the Company and are not independent Chairs of the Board.


51 2025 MANAGEMENT PROXY CIRCULAR I		© CGI Inc.

All operational and corporate functions (other than the offices of the Founder and Co-Chair of the Board of Directors and the Executive Chair of the Board of Directors) report to the President and Chief Executive Officer, who reports directly to the Board of Directors. The President and Chief Executive Officer, jointly with the CGI management team, develop the strategies and corporate objectives which are approved by the Board of Directors. Each year, the Human Resources Committee assesses the performance of executive officers in achieving the objectives and makes recommendations to the Board of Directors in relation to the grant and vesting of stock options, the award and vesting of PSUs and the payment of bonuses under the Profit Participation Plan to executive officers, including the Named Executive Officers.

Taken together, the Operations Management Framework and the corporate objectives approved by the Board of Directors annually define the scope of management’s authority and responsibilities, including those of the Founder and Co-Chair of the Board of Directors, the Executive Chair of the Board of Directors and of the President and Chief Executive Officer, in relation to the Company’s day-to-day operations and the attainment of its objectives. At each regularly scheduled Board meeting, the Founder and Co-Chair of the Board of Directors, the Executive Chair of the Board of Directors and the President and Chief Executive Officer report on their stewardship of the Company’s operations, and their performance relative to fixed objectives is assessed annually. Ultimately, the Board of Directors reports to the shareholders at the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders.

Role and Responsibilities of the Lead Director and Standing Committee Chairs

Lead Director

The charter of the Board of Directors, which is incorporated by reference in this Management Proxy Circular (see the heading Mandate, Structure and Composition of the Board of Directors earlier in this document), requires that the Board of Directors appoint a Lead Director from among the independent directors. The Lead Director is responsible for ensuring that the Board of Directors acts independently of the Company’s management and strictly in accordance with its obligations towards shareholders.

Mr. Cope, an independent member of the Board of Directors, was appointed as CGI’s Lead Director on February 2, 2022.

In fulfilling his responsibilities, the Lead Director provides input to the Founder and Co-Chair of the Board of Directors and the Executive Chair of the Board of Directors in the preparation of the agendas of the meetings of the Board of Directors, sets the agenda for, and chairs the meetings of, the independent directors, and leads the annual self-evaluation process for the Board of Directors, including director peer review.

Together with the Founder and Co-Chair of the Board of Directors and the Executive Chair of the Board of Directors, the Lead Director facilitates the effective and transparent interaction of Board members and management. The Lead Director also provides feedback to the Founder and Co-Chair of the Board of Directors and the Executive Chair of the Board of Directors and acts as a sounding board with respect to strategies, accountability, relationships and other matters.

Standing Committee Chairs

The role and responsibilities of each of the Chairs of the standing committees of the Board of Directors are set forth in the charter of each committee. The standing committees’ charters are incorporated by reference in this Management Proxy Circular (see the heading Mandate, Structure and Composition of the Board of Directors earlier in this document).

The Chair of each committee is responsible for leading the committee’s work and, in that capacity, ensuring that the committee’s structure and mandate are appropriate and adequate to support the fulfilment of its responsibilities, that the committee has adequate resources as well as timely and relevant information to support


© CGI Inc.		I 2025 MANAGEMENT PROXY CIRCULAR 52

its work, and that the scheduling, organization and procedures of committee meetings provide adequate time for the consideration and discussion of relevant issues. The committee Chair is responsible for ensuring that the effectiveness of the committee is assessed on a regular basis.

The Chair presides over the committee’s meetings and works with the Founder and Co-Chair of the Board of Directors, the Executive Chair of the Board of Directors, the Corporate Secretary and the Company’s relevant executive officers in setting the agendas for each meeting and has the authority to convene special meetings of the committee. The Chair of the Corporate Governance Committee also works with the Founder and Co-Chair of the Board of Directors, the Executive Chair of the Board of Directors, the Corporate Secretary and the Company’s relevant executive officers in setting the calendars of the committees’ meetings. The committee Chair acts as liaison with the Company’s management in relation to the committee’s work program and ensures that the committee reports to the Board of Directors at each subsequent meeting of the Board of Directors in relation to the committee’s deliberations, decisions and recommendations.

Criteria for Tenure on CGI’s Board of Directors

Each year, the Committee reviews all of the Company’s corporate governance practices as part of an exercise that takes place well in advance of the annual preparation and review of the Company’s Management Proxy Circular, so that such practices, including those that govern the conditions for tenure on the Board of Directors, receive careful consideration in advance of the Company’s fiscal year end and the preparation of materials for the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders.

Independence

CGI’s corporate governance practices require that a majority of the members of the Board of Directors be independent, as per the requirements set forth in National Instrument 52-110 – Audit Committees. This means that they must be and remain free from any material ties to the Company, its management and its external auditor that could, or could reasonably be perceived to, materially interfere with the directors’ ability to act in the best interests of the Company, and otherwise in keeping with the definitions of independence applicable under the governance regulations, rules and guidelines of the relevant stock exchanges and securities regulators.

The Board of Directors has concluded that the position of Lead Director, which has existed since 1996, ensures that the Board of Directors is able to act independently of management in an effective manner. The Lead Director holds meetings of the outside directors after each regular meeting of the Board of Directors, without management and related directors present.

The Board of Directors has determined that the directors identified as being independent in this Management Proxy Circular do not have interests in or relationships with CGI or with any of CGI’s significant shareholders that could, or could reasonably be perceived to, materially interfere with the directors’ ability to act in the best interests of the Company, and that they are therefore independent under applicable regulations, rules and guidelines.

The independence of the Board of Directors and each standing committee is further enhanced by their ability to engage outside advisors as needed. In addition, individual directors may also retain the services of outside advisors with the authorization of the Chair of the Committee.

Shareholders of CGI, or any other person who has an interest in the Company, who wish to contact CGI’s non-management or independent directors may do so by e-mail sent to the Lead Director at [email protected] or by using the contact page for the Lead Director on CGI’s website at www.cgi.com.

Expertise and Financial and Operational Literacy

CGI’s corporate governance practices require that all members of the Board of Directors be both financially and operationally literate. The financial literacy of individual directors who do not sit on the Audit and Risk


53 2025 MANAGEMENT PROXY CIRCULAR I		© CGI Inc.

Management Committee need not be as extensive as that of members who sit on such committee. Having operational literacy means that the director must have substantial experience in the execution of day-to-day business decisions and strategic business objectives acquired as a result of meaningful past experience, such as a Chief Executive Officer or as a senior executive officer in another capacity but with a broad responsibility for operations.

The directors’ experience and subject matter expertise are examined by the Committee annually when it reviews and makes recommendations to the Board of Directors in relation to succession planning for the Board of Directors in the context of the Board of Directors and standing committee self-evaluation process (see the heading Self-Assessment and Peer Review). Expertise in the vertical markets in which the Company operates (financial services; government; health; communications and utilities; and manufacturing, retail and distribution), operational expertise and literacy, and financial literacy make up the key criteria that are used to select candidates for Board membership, to review and determine the composition of the Board of Directors, and to assess the performance of directors annually as part of the annual Board of Directors and standing committee self-evaluation process. The Board of Directors’ objective in relation to its composition is to ensure that it has expert representation for each of the Company’s targeted vertical markets.

The members of the Board of Directors who serve on the Audit and Risk Management Committee must be operationally literate and be financially literate in accordance with applicable governance standards under applicable securities laws, regulations and stock exchange rules, and in the sense of having the ability to read and understand a set of financial statements that present a breadth and level of complexity of accounting issues such as those which could reasonably be expected to be raised by CGI’s financial statements.

The Committee and the Board of Directors have determined that all members of the Audit and Risk Management Committee are financially literate. The Chair, Ms. Kathy N. Waller, and its members Messrs. Gilles Labbé and Frank Witter and Ms. Alison C. Reed, have the necessary experience to qualify as financial experts under the NYSE corporate governance rules and the rules adopted by the SEC in accordance with the Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002. Ms. Kathy N. Waller is a Certified Public Accountant (CPA, CGMA) and served as Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and President, Enabling Services of The Coca-Cola Company, Ms. Alison C. Reed is a Chartered Accountant (ACA) and served as Chief Financial Officer of Marks and Spencer plc, Standard Life Assurance Company and Standard Life plc, Mr. Labbé is a Fellow of the Institute of Chartered Professional Accountants Canada (FCPA, FCA), and Mr. Witter served as Chief Financial Officer of Volkswagen Group.

Mr. Stephen S. Poloz, the remaining member of the Audit and Risk Management Committee, is financially literate in the sense that he has the knowledge and skills necessary to allow him to read and understand a set of financial statements that present a breadth and level of complexity of accounting issues such as those which could reasonably be expected to be raised by CGI’s financial statements. Mr. Poloz acquired his financial literacy while serving as the Governor of the Bank of Canada and Chairman of the Bank of Canada’s board of directors, as well as while serving as Chair of the BIS Audit Committee and President and CEO of Export Development Canada, a major public sector financial intermediary providing various forms of insurance and lending to facilitate international business on behalf of Canadian companies.

Share Ownership Guideline for Directors

As of April 29, 2025, CGI’s directors are required to hold Class A Shares or DSUs having a minimum value of at least three times the then current annual board retainer within five years of their election or appointment to the Board of Directors pursuant to the Company’s share ownership guideline for directors. All directors currently comply with the ownership guideline. The share ownership on the part of the Company’s outside directors as at December 1, 2025, and the date on which their holdings must meet the minimum level of share ownership, where applicable, are set out in the following table.

Availability and Workload

The Board of Directors has endorsed the Committee’s recommendation not to adopt formal guidelines on the number of boards or committees on which independent directors may sit on the basis that the contribution of each director to the work of the Board of Directors forms part of the Board of Directors’ self-assessment process and that arbitrary limits might not serve the interests of the Company.

Some nominee directors are presently directors of other public companies, as shown in the table below:

(a)	Mr. Witter is not seeking reelection to the Board of Directors at the Meeting and will therefore cease to be a director on January 28, 2026.

The Board of Directors and the Committee have determined that none of the nominee directors’ commitments impair their capacity to serve the Company, the Board of Directors or any standing committee effectively.

Conflicts of Interest

A process is in place for directors to annually acknowledge CGI’s Code of Ethics and Business Conduct in the same way as all our officers and CGI Partners do. All directors have also declared their interests in all other companies where they serve as directors or officers. The Board of Directors has endorsed the Committee’s recommendation to maintain the practice of having directors tender their resignation for consideration upon a major change in their principal occupation.

Director Orientation and Continuing Education Program

New Director Orientation

Each new director participates in a formal orientation program. The program consists of a detailed presentation of the Company’s current three-year strategic plan, coupled with a series of meetings between the new director and each of the Founder and Co-Chair of the Board of Directors, the Executive Chair of the Board of Directors, the Lead Director, the President and Chief Executive Officer, the Chair of any standing committee to which the director will be assigned, and other key senior executives of the Company. Depending on the director’s experience and background and the results of the executive meetings, additional meetings may be scheduled. In addition to the executive briefings, new directors receive CGI’s Director Reference Materials, a comprehensive set of documents containing both public and non-public information concerning the Company, which includes detailed information in relation to the Company, its operations, financial condition and management structure; policies and public disclosure record; the work programs and minutes of past meetings of the Board of Directors and of its standing committees; biographies of CGI’s key senior executive officers; materials related to the director’s duties and responsibilities, including a summary of the Company’s insurance coverage for directors and officers liability; and the Company’s process for reporting transactions in its securities carried out by its reporting insiders.

Continuing Education Program

In addition to the formal orientation program, the directors participate in a continuing education program which provides “in-depth” information on key issues relating to the Company’s business, including the material risks the Company faces and recent developments in the global information technology market. Detailed presentations are also made to the standing committees on technical subjects such as the application of key accounting principles in the preparation of the Company’s financial statements, corporate governance rules and practices, and trends in executive officers’ and directors’ compensation.

Directors also receive updates on business and governance initiatives as well as responses to questions raised by the members of the Board of Directors from time to time. Directors who wish to do so may make arrangements with the Corporate Secretary to participate, at CGI’s expense, in board-level industry associations or conferences, to attend continuing education courses that are relevant to their role as a director of the Company or otherwise to pursue activities that contribute in a meaningful way to the value they bring to the Board of Directors.


59 2025 MANAGEMENT PROXY CIRCULAR I		© CGI Inc.

All members of the Board of Directors are invited to attend CGI’s annual Leadership Conference, a key part of the Company’s strategic planning cycle and can participate in sessions of CGI’s Leadership Institute management professional development program, including CGI 101, an immersive learning program for CGI leaders conducted over five days, covering all aspects of the Company’s business.

Self-Assessment and Peer Review

The Lead Director, in concert with the Committee, coordinates an annual self-assessment of the effectiveness of the Board of Directors as a whole and of its standing committees, which includes a peer review of the independent directors. The Committee is also responsible for establishing the competencies, skills and qualities it seeks in new Board members and directors are assessed against the contribution they are expected to make by way of a questionnaire.

Once responses are received, the Lead Director compiles and analyses the results and discusses the self-assessments, including director peer reviews, with each director. Following one-on-one discussions with directors, the Lead Director reviews the overall results of the annual self-assessment process with the Founder and Co-Chair of the Board of Directors and the Executive Chair of the Board of Directors. The Committee then meets to review the results of the annual self-assessment process, including director peer reviews, and subsequently presents the final results to the Board of Directors for discussion.

The Board of Directors annually reviews the assessment of its performance and the recommendations provided by the Committee with the objective of increasing the Board of Directors’ effectiveness in carrying out its responsibilities. The Board of Directors takes appropriate action based on the results of the review process.

Retirement Age and Director Term Limits

The Board of Directors has endorsed the Committee’s recommendation not to adopt a formal retirement age or term limits for directors.

CGI’s success is due in large measure to the Company’s experience and expertise in the vertical markets in which it operates. The selection criteria for CGI’s Board of Directors, which are explained earlier in this document under the heading Expertise and Financial and Operational Literacy, recognize this and are designed


© CGI Inc.		I 2025 MANAGEMENT PROXY CIRCULAR 60

to ensure that the Company has subject matter experts on the Board of Directors who can effectively provide intelligence, experience, expertise, and business and operational insight into each of the Company’s vertical markets. Imposing a term limit or an arbitrary retirement age would unnecessarily expose the Company to losing valuable expertise and insight that could not be easily replaced. The Committee and the Board of Directors are therefore of the view that a mandatory retirement age or term limits might arbitrarily and needlessly deprive the Board of Directors of valuable talent.

As with the other aspects of CGI’s corporate governance practices, term limits and formal retirement age for directors are considered on a regular basis by the Board of Directors. In the event of a vote, the directors who would be affected if such limits were adopted withdraw from the meeting and abstain from voting on the matter. The Board of Directors believes that the effectiveness of this approach to board renewal is proven as 56% of the independent nominee directors were not directors six years ago.

Nomination Process for the Board of Directors and Executive Officers

Board of Directors

The shareholders are responsible for electing CGI’s directors. The responsibility for proposing candidates for election by the shareholders lies with the Board of Directors, which relies on the recommendations of the Committee.

Based on the results of the Board of Directors self-evaluation and director review process (see the heading Self-Assessment and Peer Review earlier in this document) and, from time to time, on its own assessment of the needs of the Company, the Committee may recommend that the composition of the Board of Directors or its standing committees be varied in order to continue to serve the best interests of the Company and to ensure an appropriate succession of directors. By way of example, when it is appropriate to do so, additional directors may be appointed to committees so that knowledge is transmitted to new members to facilitate a smooth transition as standing committee composition evolves.

When changes to the composition of the Board of Directors are required, potential candidates are identified either through referrals from directors or senior management, or with the assistance of third parties. The selection of nominees from among the potential candidates is based on the candidate’s expertise and knowledge in the vertical markets in which the Company operates and their operational and financial literacy based on the Board of Directors’ skills matrix (see the heading Expertise and Financial and Operational Literacy earlier in this document), taking into account, in all cases in compliance with applicable local laws and practices, criteria that promote diversity, including gender (with the objective of having a Board of Directors composed of at least 30% of women), ethnicity, age, race, disability, experience and geographical representation. The Committee, the Founder and Co-Chair of the Board of Directors, the Executive Chair of the Board of Directors and the Lead Director consult with each other with respect to the actions to be taken and the necessary steps are then taken to interview the candidates and confirm their willingness to serve on the Board of Directors.

Once the selection of candidates is completed, the Committee recommends to the Board of Directors that the candidate or candidates be either appointed by the Board of Directors if there is a vacancy to be filled or if there is a need to increase the size of the Board of Directors, or be nominated for election at the next Annual General Meeting of Shareholders.

Six out of thirteen (or 46%) of CGI’s nominee directors are women. The charters of the Board of Directors and of the Corporate Governance Committee include the Company’s objective of having a Board of Directors of which at least 30% are women. CGI is very proud to have exceeded this objective and we will continue to monitor our progress.

Succession Planning for Executive Officers

Succession planning is a priority of the Board of Directors as part of its responsibility to ensure that CGI has a robust pipeline of leaders at executive and management levels, including for the President and Chief Executive Officer position. As provided in its charter, the Board of Directors oversees the succession planning, including the appointment, training and monitoring, of senior management. The Human Resources Committee plays a key role in supporting the Board of Directors in its oversight of talent management and succession planning by reviewing annually the succession plan for the Chief Executive Officer and other executive roles. The Human Resources Committee also provides annually a report to the Board of Directors on succession planning, which identifies key talent and potential successors’ capabilities, the roles that they can assume in the future and the development programs required to prepare them for these roles.

The charter of the Human Resources Committee also provides that in identifying potential candidates for appointment as executive officers, the Human Resources Committee will consider, in all cases in compliance with applicable local laws and practices, the diversity of the executive team’s background, including in terms of gender, ethnicity, race, disability, age and experience. The Company has not set a specific target regarding the representation of women in executive officer positions, but rather aspires to achieve the same level of diversity representation at the leadership levels as the Company’s population as a whole. This is due to the limited size and the low turnover rate of its executive team. The Company mainly focuses its efforts on succession planning to ensure a pipeline of diverse and qualified candidates for future leadership roles. As at the date of this Management Proxy Circular, five out of nineteen (or 26.3%) of the Company’s current executive officers, were women. In addition, a total of 19 women occupy senior management positions, which represents approximately 19.6% of the Company’s total number of senior managers.

Board of Directors Participation in Strategic Planning

The Board of Directors is directly and closely involved in the preparation and approval of CGI’s rolling three-year strategic plan which is reviewed and assessed annually by the Board of Directors.

CGI has adopted a consultative process for budgeting and strategic planning in order to ensure that the resulting business plan is as closely attuned as possible to maximizing the Company’s business opportunities and mitigating operational and other risks. The Board of Directors receives a detailed briefing early in the planning process covering all aspects of CGI’s strategic planning so that the directors are in a position to contribute to the process in a meaningful way before the final business plan has taken shape.

In keeping with CGI’s three-year rolling strategic planning process, the strategic plan begins with the initiatives, directions and priorities identified at the business unit level by the Company’s management team that are shared at the Company’s annual Leadership Conference. The Company’s rolling three-year strategic plan was presented to the directors in July for review and discussion. The Company’s fiscal 2026 business plan and budget was presented to, and approved by, the Board of Directors in September. The rolling three-year planning process provides a meaningful opportunity for the directors to contribute to the strategic planning process. In addition to the formal planning process, every Board of Directors meeting agenda features a standing item that serves as a forum for continuing free-ranging discussion between the Board of Directors and management in relation to the Company’s strategic direction.

Guidelines on Timely Disclosure of Material Information

CGI has adopted Guidelines on Timely Disclosure of Material Information (the “Disclosure Guidelines”) whose purpose is to ensure that communications with the investment community, regulators, the media and the general public about the Company, particularly in respect of material information, are timely, accurate, broadly released in accordance with, and otherwise responsive to, all applicable legal and regulatory requirements.

Under the Disclosure Guidelines, the Board of Directors has the responsibility to oversee the Company’s compliance with its continuous and timely disclosure obligations. The Board of Directors believes that it is


© CGI Inc.		I 2025 MANAGEMENT PROXY CIRCULAR 62

management’s role to communicate on behalf of the Company with its shareholders and the investment community. The Company maintains an effective investor relations process to respond to shareholder questions and concerns. The Company also adopted the SPMF (which stands for Shareholder Partnership Management Framework, as defined under the heading CGI’s Shareholders earlier in this document), which structures the processes and how information flows between CGI and the investment community, including both buy-side (institutional investor) and sell-side (investment dealer) research analysts. CGI obtained an ISO 9001 certification for the application of the SPMF in the Company’s operations.

The Board of Directors reviews and, where required, approves statutory disclosure documents prior to their dissemination to the market and to the Company’s shareholders.

Codes of Ethics

CGI’s Codes of Ethics are attached as Appendix A to CGI’s 2025 Annual Information Form which is available on the Canadian Securities Administrators’ website at www.sedarplus.ca and on CGI’s website at www.cgi.com. A copy of the 2025 Annual Information Form will be provided to shareholders by CGI upon request.

The Codes of Ethics are comprised of CGI’s Code of Ethics and Business Conduct, which applies to all CGI Partners, officers and directors (and which incorporates CGI’s Anti-Corruption Policy); CGI’s Executive Code of Conduct, which supplements the Code of Ethics and Business Conduct for certain officers; and CGI’s Third Party Code of Ethics.

The Board of Directors monitors compliance with the Codes of Ethics and is, under its charter, responsible for any waivers of their provisions granted to directors or officers. No such waivers have been granted to date. The Corporate Governance Committee is principally responsible for the annual review of the Codes of Ethics, overseeing compliance therewith, reviewing any request for a waiver from their application, and making recommendations on these matters to the Board of Directors.

Under the terms of the Code of Ethics and Business Conduct, all of CGI Partners are required to comply with its content and to assist with its application. In particular, the Code of Ethics and Business Conduct requires that incidents be reported to human resources, legal departments, management, CGI’s Ethics Hotline, CGI’s Ethics Inbox or alternatively to any officer of the Company, especially when mandated by the Code of Ethics.

Similarly, under the terms of the Third Party Code of Ethics, all of CGI’s business partners, including but not limited to, its primes, subcontractors, independent contractors, consultants, distributors, licensees, suppliers and other agents, must ensure that they understand and adhere to the Company’s commitment to integrity and high standards of business conduct.

The Board of Directors has established procedures approved by the Audit and Risk Management Committee for the receipt, retention, and treatment of ethical incidents relating to, among others, accounting, internal accounting control or auditing matters, discrimination and harassment, corruption, bribery and data privacy, as well as any other potential breaches of the Codes of Ethics. In that regard, the Company adopted an Ethics Reporting Policy, which allows anyone who wishes to submit a report to do so via reporting hotline and secure website managed by a third party that ensures that reporters who wish to preserve their anonymity are able to do so with confidence, as allowable by law. The Audit and Risk Management Committee is primarily responsible for the review and oversight of these incident reports. A quarterly report is provided by management to the Audit and Risk Management Committee.

An integration program has been designed for new CGI Partners to become familiar with CGI’s policies, including CGI’s Ethics and Compliance policies, and their responsibilities as CGI Partners. In order to ensure that all CGI Partners are aware of the importance that the Company attaches to compliance with the Code of Ethics and Business Conduct, each new CGI Partner is informed of its content and the process for reporting


63 2025 MANAGEMENT PROXY CIRCULAR I		© CGI Inc.

ethical incidents, and is required to undertake in writing to comply with its provisions and to renew such undertaking on an annual basis. CGI’s Leadership Institute also provides new managers with an intensive curriculum of courses designed to allow them to become familiar with CGI’s methods of operation and its policies, including the Code of Ethics and Business Conduct and the process for reporting incidents. In addition, the Company provides an internet portal for all its CGI Partners to access the Company’s policies, including the Codes of Ethics and the process for reporting ethical incidents.

These measures are in addition to quarterly reports prepared by the internal audit department for the Audit and Risk Management Committee, the internal controls review function and the legal department. These quarterly reports may include reports of breaches of the Codes of Ethics when such breaches are raised in internal audit mandates or in claims made against the Company.

In addition to CGI’s Code of Ethics and Business Conduct, CGI’s principal executive and financial officers, including the Founder and Co-Chair of the Board of Directors, the Executive Chair of the Board of Directors, the President and Chief Executive Officer, and the Executive Vice-President and Chief Financial Officer, the principal accounting officer or controller, and other persons performing similar functions, are subject to CGI’s Executive Code of Conduct which they are required to review and acknowledge on an annual basis.

CGI Federal Inc., the Company’s operating subsidiary that provides services to the U.S. Federal government, has adopted separate policies and procedures to comply with specific requirements under U.S. Federal government procurement laws and regulations.

Environmental, Social and Governance

CGI publishes an Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) report, which is available on its website at www.cgi.com/en/brochure/esg/cgi-report. The ESG report is not incorporated by reference into this Management Proxy Circular.

Report of the Audit and Risk Management Committee

The Audit and Risk Management Committee of the Board of Directors is composed entirely of independent directors who meet the independence and experience requirements of National Instrument 52-110 – Audit Committees adopted by the Canadian securities regulators as well as those of the NYSE and of the SEC.

The Committee is composed of Mses. Kathy N. Waller, Chair of the Committee, and Alison C. Reed, and Messrs. Gilles Labbé, Stephen S. Poloz and Frank Witter. The Committee held six regular meetings during fiscal 2025. Ms. Waller’s role and responsibilities as Chair of the Committee are described earlier in this document in the report of the Corporate Governance Committee under the heading Role and Responsibilities of the Lead Director and Standing Committee Chairs.

Mr. Witter has decided that he will not seek reelection at the Meeting and, as a result, his term as a director, and as a member of the Audit and Risk Management Committee, will come to an end at the time of the Meeting.

The role and responsibilities of the Committee are contained in the Committee’s charter, which is incorporated by reference in this Management Proxy Circular (see the heading Mandate, Structure and Composition of the Board of Directors) and is available on the Canadian Securities Administrators’ website at www.sedarplus.ca and on CGI’s website at www.cgi.com. The role and responsibilities of the Committee include:

•

reviewing all public disclosure documents containing audited or unaudited financial information concerning CGI;

•

identifying and examining the financial and operating risks to which the Company is exposed, reviewing the various policies and practices of the Company that are intended to manage those risks, and reporting on a regular basis to the Board of Directors concerning risk management;


© CGI Inc.		I 2025 MANAGEMENT PROXY CIRCULAR 64

•

reviewing and assessing the effectiveness of CGI’s accounting policies and practices concerning financial reporting;

•

reviewing and monitoring CGI’s internal control procedures, programs and policies and assessing their adequacy and effectiveness;

•

reviewing the adequacy of CGI’s internal audit resources including the mandate and objectives of the internal auditor;

•

recommending to the Board of Directors the appointment of the external auditor, asserting the external auditor’s independence, reviewing the terms of its engagement, conducting an annual auditor performance assessment, and pursuing ongoing discussions with it;

•

reviewing all related party transactions in accordance with the rules of IFRS Accounting Standards and applicable laws and regulations;

•

reviewing the audit procedures including the proposed scope of the external auditor examinations;

•

reviewing the Company’s data privacy policies, practices, risks and exposures, including any potential impact on the Company;

•

reviewing the Company’s security and cybersecurity policies, practices, risks and exposures, including any potential impact on the Company; and

•

performing such other functions as are usually attributed to audit committees or as directed by the Board of Directors.

External Auditor

The Committee is required to assert the independence of CGI’s external auditor, addresses the applicable criteria with the external auditor and obtains yearly confirmations from it as to its independence.

Auditor Independence Policy

In order to satisfy itself as to the independence of the external auditor, the Committee has adopted an auditor independence policy which covers (a) the services that may and may not be performed by the external auditor, (b) the governance procedures to be followed prior to retaining services from the external auditor, and (c) the responsibilities of management and the Committee. The following is a summary of the material provisions of the policy.

Performance of Services

Services are either acceptable services or prohibited services.

The acceptable services are audit and review of financial statements, prospectus work, the audit of pension plans, special audits on control procedures, tax planning services on mergers and acquisitions activities, due diligence relating to mergers and acquisitions, tax services related to transfer pricing, sales tax planning and returns, research and interpretation related to taxation, research relating to accounting issues, tax planning services, preparation of tax returns, and all other services that are not prohibited services. The prohibited services are: bookkeeping services, the design and implementation of financial information systems, appraisal or valuation services or fairness opinions, actuarial services, internal audit services, management functions, human resources functions, broker-dealer services, legal services, services based on contingency fees, and expert services.


65 2025 MANAGEMENT PROXY CIRCULAR I		© CGI Inc.

Governance Procedures

The following control procedures are applicable when considering whether to retain the external auditor services:

For all services falling within the permitted services category, whether they are audit or non-audit services, a request for approval must be submitted to the Committee through the Executive Vice-President and Chief Financial Officer prior to engaging the auditor to perform the services.

In the interests of efficiency, certain permitted services are pre-approved by the Committee and thereafter only require approval by the Executive Vice-President and Chief Financial Officer, the Vice-President, Finance and Corporate Controller, or the Vice-President, Treasury and Taxation as follows:

•

The Committee can pre-approve envelopes for certain services to pre-determined dollar limits on a quarterly basis;

•

Once pre-approved by the Committee, the Executive Vice-President and Chief Financial Officer, the Vice-President, Finance and Corporate Controller, or the Vice-President, Treasury and Taxation may approve the services prior to the engagement;

•

For services not captured within the pre-approved envelopes and for costs in excess of the pre-approved amounts, separate requests for approval must be submitted to the Committee; and

•

At each quarterly meeting of the Committee, a consolidated summary of all fees by service type is presented including a breakdown of fees incurred within each of the pre-approved envelopes.

Management and Committee Responsibilities

Management and the Committee are the Company’s two key participants for the purposes of the Company’s Auditor Independence Policy. The primary responsibilities of management are creating and maintaining a policy that follows applicable auditor independence standards, managing compliance with the policy, reporting to the Committee all mandates to be granted to the external auditor, and monitoring and approving services to be performed within the pre-approved envelopes.

The primary responsibilities of the Committee are nominating the external auditor for appointment by the Company’s shareholders, approving fees for audit services, approving the Auditor Independence Policy and amendments thereto, monitoring management’s compliance with the policy, obtaining yearly confirmations of independence from the external auditor, monitoring audit partner rotation requirements, monitoring the twelve month “cooling off” period when hiring members of the audit engagement team in a financial reporting oversight role, reviewing the appropriateness of required audit fee disclosure, interpreting the Auditor Independence Policy, and approving all mandates of the auditor or pre-approving envelopes for specific services.

Under the Auditor Independence Policy, the Committee has the ultimate responsibility to assert the independence of CGI’s external auditor.

Annual External Auditor Assessment

The Committee performs an annual assessment process to assist in making its recommendation to the Board of Directors in relation to the appointment of the Company’s external auditors. For fiscal 2026, the process was initiated in November and was completed prior to the Committee’s recommendation relating to the appointment of the Company’s external auditors that was made in December 2025.

The annual external auditors’ assessment is based on the recommendations of Chartered Professional Accountants Canada in collaboration with the Canadian Public Accountability Board. The process is expected to provide an additional element of structure for the Committee in making its recommendation and to help in identifying areas for improvement for the external audit firm and the Company’s audit processes.

Fees of the External Auditor

During the years ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, CGI’s external auditor invoiced the following fees for its services:


	Fees billed
Service retained	2025		2024
Audit fees	$	8,063,940	$	8,314,936
Audit related fees^(a)	$	717,829	$	687,897

All other fees^(c)	$	11,235	$	14,385
Total fees billed	$	9,780,333	$	10,855,029

(a)	The audit related fees billed by the external auditor for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2025, and September 30, 2024, were primarily in relation to service organization control procedures audits and assistance.

(b)	The tax fees billed by the external auditor for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2025, and September 30, 2024, were in relation to tax compliance and advisory services.

(c)	The other fees billed by the external auditor for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2025, and September 30, 2024, were mainly in relation to a license to access a certain web-based platform.

Related Party Transactions

The Committee is responsible under its charter for reviewing and making recommendations to the Board of Directors in relation to any transaction in which a director or a member of senior management has an interest. To the extent that it is necessary to do so, the Committee may retain outside advisors to assist it in reviewing related party transactions.

For more important transactions, the Board of Directors generally establishes a special committee made up entirely of independent directors that is mandated to review the transaction and to make a recommendation to the Board of Directors. Such committee may retain independent legal and financing advisors to assist in reviewing the transaction.

Whether it is the Committee or a special committee, the committee mandated with reviewing the transaction tables its report with the Board of Directors and it is the Board of Directors that has the responsibility of approving the transaction if it determines that it is appropriate to do so.

Appendix C

Shareholder Proposals

Proposal Number One – Strengthening participation in annual general meetings, particularly among small shareholders

Proposal

It is proposed that the Board of Directors take the following measures to protect the Company’s governance and prevent risks associated with small shareholders’ disengagement:

•

Work closely with transfer agents to simplify the voting process and make it more accessible;

•

Modernize communications by making them clearer, more attractive, and tailored to small shareholders;

•

Accelerate the adoption of technological solutions (simplified electronic voting) to maximize participation.

Arguments

Annual general meetings (“AGMs”) are an essential pillar of public companies’ governance. They allow shareholders to exercise their right to oversight, question management, and influence a company’s general direction. However, the gradual decline in participation, particularly among small shareholders, jeopardizes this fundamental democratic exercise.

A worrying finding: data from Broadridge Proxy Pulse Canada¹ reveals the following:

Participation by category of shareholders

LOGO

If left unaddressed, this disengagement undermines the legitimacy of decisions made at AGMs and hinders effective governance.

A concrete example: The case of Transat A.T. Inc.

In April 2024, Transat A.T. Inc., a well-known travel company, had to postpone its annual meeting due to quorum not being met. This widely publicized event demonstrates that insufficient participation can lead to delays in key decisions, affect the company’s credibility and create uncertainty among stakeholders and the market.

The Transat example reminds us that the vitality of general meetings can never be taken for granted. Protecting active shareholder participation means preserving the legitimacy, effectiveness, and transparency of corporate governance.

Board of Directors Response

CGI is committed to ensuring that all of its shareholders, regardless of the size of their holdings, can effectively exercise their rights, including participating and voting at shareholder meetings. Voting is already accessible to all shareholders, through the means described in this Management Proxy Circular, and CGI’s Rules of Conduct, which are made publicly available on CGI’s website. Further to discussions with its transfer agent, the Company understands that its voting process is straightforward and in line with other issuers. The Company is not aware of any technological solutions that better promote voting.

The Company strives to provide clear and straightforward information to support shareholder participation, including detailed proxies and voting instructions (see headings Proxies and How to Vote in this Management Proxy Circular). These materials are designed to be user-friendly and easy to follow, while at the same time meeting the needs of the Company’s shareholder base as a whole. The Company continues to work on these materials, within the confines of applicable regulation, to make them clear and easy to understand. It is essential that communications and processes remain appropriate and equitable for all shareholders.

Furthermore, CGI has consistently achieved quorum at its annual meetings and has not encountered challenges with shareholder participation in this regard. The Company believes that the measures and processes already in place effectively facilitate shareholder participation at each annual meeting and enable shareholders to fully exercise all their rights.

The Board of Directors therefore recommends that shareholders VOTE AGAINST shareholder proposal number one.

Proposal Number Two – Enhancing transparency and shareholder dialogue in a multiple voting shares (MVS) context

Proposal

It is proposed that by the next annual general meeting, the Board of Directors implement measures to enhance transparency, dialogue, and fairness among shareholders.

Arguments

These measures should include, among other things:

The systematic publication of voting results by share class, including a clear breakdown between holders of multiple voting shares and ordinary shareholders.

The establishment of an annual consultation mechanism for minority shareholders to formally obtain their feedback on executive compensation (Say-on-Pay), in the form of a non-binding advisory vote, the results of which would be published separately.

The Board’s commitment to publicly explain how the concerns expressed by minority shareholders are taken into account, particularly with regard to compensation, governance, and balance of power.

Having a structure that includes multiple voting shares may, in certain circumstances, help Canadian companies preserve local control and strategic stability, particularly in sensitive sectors. However, such structure imposes greater responsibility in terms of transparency, fairness, and responsiveness to minority shareholders.

Failing to give minority shareholders the opportunity to express themselves in a structured and transparent manner, particularly on executive compensation matters, fuels a climate of mistrust, damages a company’s reputation, and is inconsistent with the current expectations of institutional investors, governance agencies, and financial markets.

This proposal does not weaken in any way the multiple voting shares control model. Rather, it aims to modernize governance practices by offering minority shareholders:

•

Greater visibility on the actual distribution of votes.

•

A formal space to express their concerns.

•

Tangible proof that the Board of Directors takes all votes into account, beyond the minimum legal requirements.

The implementation of such measures is consistent with the practices of the most respected publicly traded companies and helps maintain a climate of trust and legitimacy among shareholders.

Board of Directors Response

CGI’s disclosure practice regarding voting results complies with the rules set out by the Business Corporations Act (Quebec), under which the Company is incorporated, and is in line with all applicable legislation. The Company considers that all votes should be treated equally, and that disclosing the voting results separately for each class of shares would not provide additional protection or benefits to the holders of Class A subordinate voting shares. The Lead Director and other members of the Board of Directors, which is composed of a majority of independent directors, also have fiduciary obligations to ensure that the interests of all shareholders, irrespective of the class of shares held, are adequately protected.

On say-on-pay, devising a compensation policy for a successful business is a challenging task that requires a deep understanding of the Company’s business and its competitive environment. CGI’s directors have developed an executive compensation policy that emphasizes incentive compensation linked to business performance, aligning the interests of executives with those of shareholders. Profit participation is only paid when shareholder wealth has been created. The current Canadian regulatory framework prevents public companies from knowing who their shareholders really are, and it is therefore unclear how an advisory vote can lead to a meaningful dialogue with shareholders who, for the most part, remain anonymous. Moreover, passive investment vehicles and instruments result in shareholders’ rights now being exercised by intermediaries rather than beneficial owners; in addition, several institutional investors exercise their voting power based on the recommendations of proxy advisory firms, thereby essentially delegating their voting rights to them. CGI holds numerous meetings and has on-going dialogue with shareholders and other investors. These meetings provide a real opportunity for dialogue to address any shareholder questions, on executive compensation or otherwise, in a manner that is much more meaningful than an advisory vote.

CGI solicits direct feedback from all its shareholders on key corporate governance practices through its Shareholder Satisfaction Assessment Program (“SSAP”), including with respect to executive compensation practices, and requests shareholder ratings of governance practices on a 10-point scale. The average SSAP score of the Company in fiscal 2025 was 9/10. The SSAP is used to solicit feedback from holders of Class A shares only (i.e. minority shareholders).

The Company believes that the interests of its shareholders are well aligned, and that the culture of transparency and dialogue established between CGI and its shareholders ensures that all shareholders who wish to be heard have the opportunity to engage with the Company. Shareholders have access to a broad range of information through the continuous disclosure documents of the Company, including its share capital structure.

The Board of Directors therefore recommends that shareholders VOTE AGAINST shareholder proposal number two.

Proposal Number Three – Adjustment to CGI’s governance practices in light of the risks related to trade tensions with the United States

Proposal

It is proposed that CGI’s Board of Directors strengthens governance mechanisms related to trade and geopolitical risks.

Arguments

These mechanisms should include the following measures:

The formal expansion of the risk committee’s mandate, or the creation of a specific committee, to explicitly oversee risks related to trade tensions and geopolitical uncertainties affecting CGI’s business, particularly in North America.

The annual publication of clear indicators that track the Company’s geographic dependence (revenue, workforce, key contracts by region), as well as the evolution of this dependence over time.

The annual presentation, in communications to shareholders (integrated report or other public documentation), of a summary of the mitigation strategies put in place to strengthen CGI’s resilience to trade tensions and potential barriers, including market, talent and partnership diversification measures.

CGI’s 2024 annual report acknowledges that international trade tensions, particularly between Canada and the United States, constitute a strategic risk that could affect the Company’s revenues and business.

This observation is particularly important since the United States is a key market for CGI, both in terms of revenue and workforce.

In a global commercial environment marked by instability and increasing protectionist measures, it is essential to go beyond simply acknowledging these risks and to adopt a proactive and structured approach to them.

This proposal therefore aims to:

•

Structure the monitoring of commercial risks at the highest decision-making level.

•

Enhance transparency towards shareholders.

•

Increase CGI’s ability to maintain its growth and competitiveness, regardless of geopolitical changes.

This proposal is part of a constructive approach that recognizes the efforts already made by CGI, but that aims at strengthening such efforts and make them more visible and tangible to shareholders and stakeholders.

Board of Directors Response

The Board of Directors and the Audit and Risk Management Committee are responsible for the continuous oversight of the risks affecting the Company and its business. The charters of the Audit and Risk Management Committee and of the Board are available online and set out the extensive principles and processes the Company uses to oversee risk.

The Company’s risk factors are reported in the Company’s quarterly filings. In addition, the Company’s public disclosure documentation outlines its business structure, notably in terms of clients (including client concentration), contracts, office presence and revenue. Through its reporting and constant dialogue with its shareholders, clients and CGI Partners, the Company remains committed to fostering a culture of transparency, particularly regarding the measures it implements to mitigate risk.

While CGI operates globally, it does so under the principles of its Management Foundation to generate consistent results, which include the Company’s flexible global delivery and client proximity models. These contemplate the establishment of local resources in order to deliver quick responses and local accountability required for success. This allows CGI to organize its operations to be close to its clients, firmly rooted in their markets and communities, and to deliver services onsite and tailored to their specific business needs.

The Board of Directors and the Audit and Risk Management Committee believe that the Company’s structure, governance practices, and measures currently in place allow it to adequately and appropriately monitor its business risks and put in place the necessary responses to mitigate the potential effects of such risks.

The Board of Directors therefore recommends that shareholders VOTE AGAINST shareholder proposal number three.

Proposal Number Four – In-person Annual Meetings

Proposal

Given the percentage of votes obtained in favour of this proposal in the past (16.94%), it is once again proposed that the annual meetings of the Company be held in person, with virtual meetings being complementary and not replacing in-person meetings.

Arguments

Remember that CGI’s voting shares are divided into two classes: Class A subordinate shares, which are entitled to one vote each, and Class B shares, which are entitled to ten votes each. As at December 4, 2023, 43.80% and 56.20% of the aggregate voting rights were attached to the outstanding Class A subordinate voting shares and Class B shares, respectively.

Since the Company’s management recommended voting against our shareholder proposal last year, it is reasonable to believe that all the votes cast in favor of our proposal came from Class A subordinate shares. It is therefore possible to estimate that nearly 40% of holders of subordinate shares supported our proposal. While we understand that the virtual component of annual meetings enables us to reach certain shareholders who are unable to attend in person, we believe that the hybrid format, with an in-person meeting, enables more direct exchanges with management and directors. At a time when in-person contact is becoming increasingly rare, and where direct communication is increasingly valuable, we feel that the suggested hybrid format is the most appropriate.

It should be noted that the Canadian Securities Administrators (“CSA”) has recently revised its guidelines to encourage issuers to hold their annual meetings both virtually and in person¹, and that the Canadian Coalition for Good Governance² advises against holding such meetings strictly virtually, as this format can limit the expression of the voice of shareholders. Also, one of the new criteria to be used to assess the good governance of organizations by The Globe and Mail, in its annual Board Games, will be to favor hybrid meetings, with no points awarded to companies that hold their meetings solely in person or solely virtually.

Board of Directors Response

The Board of Directors reaffirms its belief that, especially in light of CGI’s geographically diverse shareholder base, a virtual only format continues to offer a more flexible, cost effective and accessible way for shareholders to engage with the Company, without requiring a hybrid option. While ensuring shareholders from around the world can participate, virtual meetings provide cost savings and a reduction in the overall carbon footprint associated with travel to physical meeting locations, ultimately increasing shareholder value.

As part of the Company’s commitment to providing shareholder accessibility, shareholders attending the virtual meeting are afforded the same rights and opportunities to vote and participate as they would have at an in-person

or hybrid meeting. During the virtual meetings, shareholders can vote, propose motions, raise points of order, and meaningfully engage with other shareholders and with CGI’s management and directors through active participation in a real-time Q&A session (see headings Attending the Virtual Meeting and Submitting Questions in this Management Proxy Circular, and CGI’s Rules of Conduct, which are made publicly available on CGI’s website). This format provides shareholders multiple ways to express their views and directly interact with the executive leadership and Board of Directors. As an example, the Company has provided shareholders who have submitted shareholder proposals with the opportunity to directly address the meeting.

In addition, CGI is dedicated to transparent engagement and open dialogue with all shareholders and investors beyond the annual meeting forum. The Company regularly assesses the degree of satisfaction of its shareholders on key corporate governance practices as part of the Shareholder Satisfaction Assessment Program (see heading Shareholder Satisfaction Assessment Program in this Management Proxy Circular).

The Company is of the view that maintaining a virtual format is in the best interests of shareholders and ultimately increases shareholder value. Requiring an in-person component for annual meetings would limit the Company’s ability to adapt to evolving communication preferences and the efficiencies of a virtual format, while introducing additional costs and environmental impact.

The Board of Directors therefore recommends that shareholders VOTE AGAINST shareholder proposal number four.
