NOTICE-AND-ACCESS NOTIFICATION

Important Notice Regarding the Availability of Proxy Materials for the Annual General
Meeting of Shareholders to Be Held on March 20, 2025

Dear Shareholder:

You are receiving this Notice-and-Access Notification because NioCorp Developments Ltd. (the "Company") has decided to use the notice-and-access model for delivery of meeting materials for its annual general meeting of shareholders to be held on March 20, 2025 (the "Meeting") to its registered shareholders and Canadian and United States beneficial shareholders. This Notice-and-Access Notification regarding the Meeting is prepared pursuant to the notice-and-access rules that came into effect on February 11, 2013 under National Instrument 54-101 - Communication with Beneficial Owners of Securities of a Reporting Issuer, National Instrument 51-102 - Continuous Disclosure Obligations and Rule 14a-16 under the United States Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Under the notice-and-access method of distribution, instead of paper copies of the Notice of Meeting, Management Information and Proxy Circular (the "Information Circular"), 2024 Annual Report and form of proxy (the “Proxy” and, together with the Notice of Meeting, the Information Circular and the 2024 Annual Report, the "Meeting Materials"), shareholders receive this Notice-and-Access Notification with information on how they may access such materials electronically. This communication is not a form for voting and presents only an overview of the more complete information in the Meeting Materials, which contain important information and can be accessed online or requested by mail as provided below. We encourage you to access and review all of the important information contained in the Meeting Materials before voting.

The Company has elected not to use the procedure known as "stratification" in relation to its use of the notice-and-access rules. Stratification occurs when a reporting issuer using the notice-and-access rules provides a paper copy of proxy-related materials to some, but not all, of its shareholders.
