Cautionary Note Non-GAAP Measures This presentation of Pan American Silver Corp. (“Pan American” or the “Company”), which includes reference to the assets acquired in the Tahoe Resources Inc. (“Tahoe”) February 22, 2019 acquisition, refers to various non-GAAP measures, such as cash costs per payable ounce of silver, net of by-product credits (“Cash Costs”), all-in sustaining cost (“AISC”), all-in sustaining cost per silver ounce sold, free cash flow, operating margin, operating margin per ounce, total debt, adjusted (loss) earnings, adjusted (loss) earnings per share and working capital. Free cash flow is calculated as net cash generated from operating activities less cash invested in sustaining capital. Pan American believes the inclusion of sustaining capital investments better reflects total operating cash flows. Operating free cash flow does not have any standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP and is therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. These measures do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS as an indicator of performance, and may differ from methods used by other companies. Readers should refer to the “Alternative Performance (non-GAAP) Measures” section in Pan American’s Management’s Discussion and Analysis for the period ended March 31, 2019, available at www.sedar.com. For non-GAAP information pertaining to prior years, please also refer to our Management’s Discussion and Analysis for the respective year-ends. Reporting Currency and Financial Information Unless we have specified otherwise, all references to dollar amounts or $ are to United States dollars. Cautionary Note Regarding Forward Looking Statements and Information Certain of the statements and information in this presentation constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and “forward-looking information” within the meaning of applicable Canadian provincial securities laws. All statements, other than statements of historical fact, are forward-looking statements or information. Forward-looking statements or information in this presentation relate to, among other things, future financial and operational performance; future production of silver, gold and other metals produced by the Company, including the newly acquired Tahoe mines; future updates of our mineral reserves and resources, including the newly acquired Tahoe assets; our expectations with respect to future metal prices and market trends; potential restart of operations at the Escobal mine; our development of the Navidad project; the successful implementation of our sustainability plans and programs and timing thereof; and the Company’s plans and expectations for its properties and operations. These statements and information reflect Pan American’s current views with respect to future events and are necessarily based upon a number of assumptions that, while considered reasonable by Pan American, are inherently subject to significant operational, business, economic and regulatory uncertainties and contingencies. These assumptions include: our ability to successfully integrate the operations and employees and realize synergies and cost savings at the times, and to the extent, anticipated; tonnage of ore to be mined and processed; ore grades and recoveries; prices for silver, gold and base metals remaining as estimated; currency exchange rates remaining as estimated; capital, decommissioning and reclamation estimates; our mineral reserve and recourse estimates and the assumptions upon which they are based; prices for energy inputs, labour, materials, supplies and services (including transportation); no labour-related disruptions at any of our operations; no unplanned delays or interruptions in scheduled production; all necessary permits, licenses and regulatory approvals for our operations are received in a timely manner; and our ability to comply with environmental, health and safety laws. The foregoing list of assumptions is not exhaustive. Pan American cautions the reader that forward-looking statements and information involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results and developments to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements or information contained in this presentation and Pan American has made assumptions and estimates based on or related to many of these factors. Such factors include, without limitation: restart of the Escobal mine, expansion of the La Colorada mine, development of Navidad, fluctuations in silver, gold and base metal prices; fluctuations in prices for energy inputs, labour, materials, supplies and services (including transportation); fluctuations in currency markets (such as the Canadian dollar, Peruvian sol, Mexican peso, Argentine peso, Bolivian boliviano and Guatemalan quetzal versus the U.S. dollar); operational risks and hazards inherent with the business of mining (including environmental accidents and hazards, industrial accidents, equipment breakdown, unusual or unexpected geological or structural formations, cave-ins, flooding and severe weather); risks relating to the credit worthiness or financial condition of suppliers, refiners and other parties with whom Pan American does business; inadequate insurance, or inability to obtain insurance, to cover these risks and hazards; employee relations; relationships with, and claims by, local communities and indigenous populations; our ability to obtain all necessary permits, licenses and regulatory approvals in a timely manner; changes in laws, regulations and government practices in the jurisdictions where we operate, including environmental, export and import laws and regulations; diminishing quantities or grades of mineral reserves as properties are mined; increased competition in the mining industry for equipment and qualified personnel; and those factors identified under the caption “Risks and Uncertainties” in Pan American’s most recent management’s discussion and analysis, under the caption “Risks Related to Pan American’s Business” in Pan American’s most recent form 40-F and Annual Information Form, and under the caption “Risk Factors” in Pan American’s management information circular dated December 4, 2018 with respect to the arrangement with Tahoe and the special meeting of Pan American’s shareholders on January 8, 2019, each filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission and Canadian provincial securities regulatory authorities, respectively. Although Pan American has attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially, there may be other factors that cause results not to be as anticipated, estimated, described or intended. Investors are cautioned against undue reliance on forward-looking statements or information. Forward-looking statements and information are designed to help readers understand management’s current views of our near and longer term prospects and may not be appropriate for other purposes. Pan American does not intend, nor does it assume any obligation to update or revise forward-looking statements or information, whether as a result of new information, changes in assumptions, future events or otherwise, except to the extent required by applicable law. 2 May 16, 2019
Cautionary Note Technical Information Scientific and technical information contained in this presentation with respect to Pan American Silver Corp. has been reviewed and approved by Martin Wafforn, P.Eng., SVP Technical Services and Process Optimization, and Chris Emerson, FAusIMM, VP Business Development and Geology, who are Pan American’s qualified persons for the purposes of National Instrument 43-101 (“NI 43-101”). Mineral reserves in this presentation were prepared under the supervision of, or were reviewed by, Martin Wafforn and Chris Emerson. See Pan American’s Annual Information Form dated March 12, 2019, available at www.sedar.com for further information on Pan American’s material mineral properties as at December 31, 2018, including information concerning associated QA/QC and data verification matters, the key assumptions, parameters and methods used by the Pan American to estimate mineral reserves and mineral resources, and for a detailed description of known legal, political, environmental, and other risks that could materially affect Pan American’s business and the potential development of Pan American’s mineral reserves and resources. Please also refer to Pan American’s press release dated October 23, 2018, with respect to the La Colorada mine exploration results. See Tahoe’s Annual Information Form dated February 22, 2018, available at www.sedar.com for further information on Tahoe’s material mineral properties as at December 31, 2017, including information concerning associated QA/QC and data verification matters, the key assumptions, parameters and methods used by the Tahoe to estimate mineral reserves and mineral resources, and for a detailed description of known legal, political, environmental, and other risks that could materially affect Pan American’s business and the potential development of Tahoe’s mineral reserves and resources. 3 May 16, 2019
Cautionary Note About Mineral Reserves and Resources The mineral reserves and resources of Pan American in this presentation reflect our year-end 2018 mineral reserves and resources estimates (excluding the newly acquired Tahoe assets) as announced in the news release dated February 21, 2019 and Tahoe’s mineral reserves and resources in this presentation reflect its mineral reserves and resources estimates as of January 1, 2018 announced on February 15, 2018. See presentation appendix for more detailed information. Pan American intends to provide future mineral reserve and resource updates to include the Tahoe assets. Cautionary Note to US Investors Concerning Estimates of Mineral Reserves and Resources This presentation has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of Canadian securities laws, which differ from the requirements of U.S. securities laws. Unless otherwise indicated, all mineral reserve and resource estimates included in this presentation have been prepared in accordance with Canadian National Instrument 43-101 – Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects (‘‘NI 43-101’’) and the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum classification system. NI 43-101 is a rule developed by the Canadian Securities Administrators that establishes standards for all public disclosure an issuer makes of scientific and technical information concerning mineral projects. Canadian standards, including NI 43-101, differ significantly from the requirements of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), and information concerning mineralization, deposits, mineral reserve and resource information contained or referred to herein may not be comparable to similar information disclosed by U.S. companies. In particular, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, this presentation uses the terms ‘‘measured resources’’, ‘‘indicated resources’’ and ‘‘inferred resources’’. U.S. investors are advised that, while such terms are recognized and required by Canadian securities laws, the SEC has not recognized them under Industry Guide 7 prior to the adoption of the modernization of Property Disclosure for Mining Registrants. The requirements of NI 43-101 for identification of ‘‘reserves’’ has not the same as those of the SEC, and reserves reported by Pan American in compliance with NI 43-101 may not qualify as ‘‘reserves’’ under SEC standards. Under U.S. standards, mineralization may not be classified as a ‘‘reserve’’ unless the determination has been made that the mineralization could be economically and legally produced or extracted at the time the reserve determination is made. U.S. investors are cautioned not to assume that any part of a “measured resource” or “indicated resource” will ever be converted into a “reserve”. U.S. investors should also understand that “inferred resources” have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence and great uncertainty as to their economic and legal feasibility. It cannot be assumed that all or any part of “inferred resources” exist, are economically or legally mineable or will ever be upgraded to a higher category. Under Canadian securities laws, estimated “inferred resources” may not form the basis of feasibility or pre-feasibility studies except in rare cases. Disclosure of “contained ounces” in a mineral resource is permitted disclosure under Canadian securities laws. However, the SEC has previously only permitted issuers to report mineralization that does not constitute “reserves” by SEC standards as in place tonnage and grade, without reference to unit measures. Accordingly, information concerning mineral deposits set forth herein may not be comparable with information made public by companies that report in accordance with U.S. standards. 4 May 16, 2019

(1) Cash Costs and AISC are non-GAAP measures. Please refer to the section “Alternative Performance (Non-GAAP) Measures” of the MD&A for the period ended March 31, 2019, for a detailed description of these measures and where appropriate a reconciliation of the measure to the Q1 2019
Financial Statements. The Cash Costs and AISC forecasts assume metal prices of $14.50/oz for silver, $2,600/tonne ($1.18/lb) for zinc, $1,950/tonne ($0.88/lb) for lead, $6,150/tonne ($2.79/lb) for copper, and $1,250/oz for gold; and average annual exchange rates relative to 1 USD of 19.50 for the
Mexican peso ("MXN"), 3.33 of the Peruvian sol ("PEN"), 41.80 for the Argentine peso ("ARS"), 6.91 for the Bolivian boliviano ("BOL"), and $1.30 for the Canadian dollar ("CAD").
(2) Morococha data represents Pan American’s 92.3% interest in the mine's production.
(3) San Vicente data represents Pan American’s 95.0% interest in the mine's production.
(4) As shown in the detailed quantification of consolidated AISC, included in the “Alternative Performance (Non-GAAP) Measures” section of the MD&A for the period ended March 31, 2019, expenses for corporate general and administrative, exploration and project development are included in
Consolidated (silver basis) AISC, though are not allocated amongst the operations and thus are not included in either the silver or gold segment totals.
(5) Timmins mines are classified as assets held for sale in the Company's Q1 2019 Financial Statements, as described in the Note 4 of the Company's Q1 2019 Financial Statements, and in the "Acquisition of Tahoe" section of the MD&A for the period ended March 31, 2019. The gold production from
the Timmins operations is included in the consolidated guidance, pending resolution from the sale process.
(6) Totals may not add due to rounding.

42 May 16, 2019Tahoe Resources January 1, 2018 Mineral
Reserve and Mineral Resource Notes
1. Tahoe’s mineral reserve and mineral resource estimates contained in this Appendix are as reported in Tahoe’s public disclosure, and subsequently reproduced in Pan American Silver’s
management information circular with respect to the special meeting of its shareholders held on January 8, 2019.
2. Mineral Resource estimates are classified as Measured, Indicated or Inferred based on the confidence of the input data, geological interpretation and grade estimation parameters. The Mineral
Resource estimates were prepared in accordance with NI 43-101 and classifications adopted by the CIM Council.
3. Mineral Reserve estimates are based on known inputs that include metallurgical performance, taxation/royalty obligations, geologic and geotechnical characterization, operational costs, and
other economic parameters. The Company is not currently aware of any known factors that are reasonably likely to have a negative material impact on the Company’s Mineral Reserves. The
Mineral Reserve estimates were prepared in accordance with NI 43-101 and classifications adopted by the CIM Council.
4. Mineral Resources are inclusive of Mineral Reserves.
5. Bell Creek – The basis of the Mineral Resource and Mineral Reserve estimates for the Bell Creek mine is from NI 43-101 Technical Report, Updated Mineral Reserve Estimate for Bell Creek Mine,
Hoyle Township, Timmins, Ontario, Canada, dated March 27, 2015. Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves reported at January 1, 2018 were calculated by subtracting mining depletion
through the end of 2017 from an updated resource model completed in May 2017. The Bell Creek Mineral Resources are reported as in situ resources using a gold cut-off grade of 2.2 g/t.
Mineral Reserves were calculated by applying the life-of-mine plan at January 1, 2018 to the Measured and Indicated Mineral Resources using a long-term gold price of $1,275/oz and reported
at a gold cut-off grade of 2.3 g/t. Mineral Reserves are supported by a mine plan that features variable stope thicknesses designed on the Mineral Resource model using operating costs of
$87.42 per tonne ore with 95% mining recovery, external dilution of 16% and metallurgical recovery of 94.5%.
6. Escobal – The basis of the Mineral Resource and Mineral Reserve estimates for the Escobal mine is from Escobal Mine Guatemala NI 43-101 Feasibility Study, dated November 5, 2014. Mineral
Resources and Mineral Reserves reported at January 1, 2018 were calculated by subtracting mine depletion volumes from the Mineral Resource and Mineral Reserve estimates stated in the
aforementioned technical report. Mineral Resources are reported using a 100 g/t silver-equivalent cut-off grade calculated using metal prices of $20.00/oz, silver, $1,300.00/oz gold, $1.00/lb
lead and $1.10/lb zinc. Mineral Reserves as of January 1, 2018 were calculated by applying an updated mine plan to the Mineral Resource estimate stated in the Escobal Feasibility Study taking
into account mining depletion through the end of 2017. Cut-off grades to define the January 1, 2018 Mineral Reserves were calculated from the NSR value of the resource model blocks
contained within the life-of-mine plan minus the production cost to account for variability in mining method and metallurgical response. Metal prices used to determine the NSR value were
$20.00 per ounce silver, $1,300.00 per ounce gold, $1.00 per pound lead and $1.10 per pound zinc. Actual mining, processing and general and administrative (G&A) costs, metallurgical
performance and smelter contract rates from the Escobal Mine were used to derive operating costs used in the reserve calculation.
7. La Arena – The basis of the Mineral Resource and Mineral Reserve estimates for the La Arena mine is from Technical Report on the La Arena Project, Peru, dated February 20, 2018 with an
effective date of January 1, 2018. Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves reported at January 1, 2018 were calculated by applying the mine topographic surface at January 1, 2018 to an
updated Mineral Resource estimate completed July 1, 2017. Mineral Resources are reported at a cut-off grade of 0.10 g/t Au within an optimized undiscounted cash flow pit shell using a metal
price of $1,400/oz Au and actual costs experienced at the La Arena Mine. Mineral Reserves for the La Arena mine are reported at a 0.10 g/t gold cut-off grade and have been constrained to the
final pit design based on an optimized pit shell using $1,200 per ounce gold and actual operating costs incurred. As the resource block model is a diluted block model, no additional dilution or
mining losses were applied. The life-of-mine strip ratio is 1.9 (waste:ore).
8. Shahuindo – The basis of the Mineral Resource and Mineral Reserve estimates for the Shahuindo mine is from the NI 43-101 Technical Report on the Shahuindo Mine, Cajabamba, Peru, dated
January 25, 2016. Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves reported at January 1, 2018 were calculated by applying the mine topographic surface at January 1, 2018 to an updated Mineral
Resource estimate completed July 1, 2017. The Shahuindo Mineral Resources are reported using a gold cut-off grade for oxide material of 0.15 g/t. Oxide resources are reported within a
$1,400/oz gold optimized pit shell. The sulfide Mineral Resources at Shahuindo are classified entirely as Inferred due to limited metallurgical characterization and wider drill spacing than in the
oxide portion of the deposit. There have been no economic or mining studies of the sulfide portion of the Shahuindo deposit completed to date; the Inferred sulfide Mineral Resource is
reported at a 0.5 g/t gold-equivalent cut-off grade using a silver-to-gold ratio of 80. Oxide Mineral Reserves are reported at a 0.18 g/t gold cut-off grade and have been constrained to the final
pit design based on an optimized pit shell using US$1,200/oz gold and actual operating costs incurred. The Mineral Reserves were calculated from Measured and Indicated oxide Mineral
Resources only and include 5% dilution and mining losses of 2%. The life-of-mine strip ratio is 1.1 (waste:ore). There are no sulfide Mineral Reserves reported for Shahuindo.
