Cameco (TSX: CCO; NYSE: CCJ) is mourning the accidental passing of its long-standing board
member and board chair Ian Bruce on Sunday, October 15 at his cottage in Ontario.
“We are heartbroken with this tragic loss of a dear friend and valued colleague. I have worked
with Ian since he joined our board more than a decade ago. He was a dedicated husband and
father who was very proud of his family. We extend our deepest condolences to Ian’s wife
Darlene, their family and their many friends and loved ones,” said Tim Gitzel, president and
CEO of Cameco. “Ian was also proud to be part of the Cameco family and his business acumen
and leadership were invaluable to our board.”

of Peters & Co. Ltd. He also chaired the boards of MEG Energy Corporation and Qube

“Ian had a restless intellectual curiosity and was excited about the future of Cameco and nuclear
