DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Shaw Communications Inc. (the “Company”) has designed disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule
13a-15(e)
under the
Exchange Act
) to ensure that material information relating to the Company, including its consolidated subsidiaries, is made known to the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer by others within the Company, including its consolidated subsidiaries, on a regular basis, including during the period in which the Company’s Annual Report on Form
40-F
relating to financial results for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2021 is being prepared. The Executive Chair & Chief Executive Officer (the “Chief Executive Officer”) and Executive Vice President, Chief Financial and Corporate Development Officer (the “Chief Financial Officer”) have evaluated the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on the evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded, as of that evaluation date, that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that the material information relating to the Company (including its consolidated subsidiaries) required to be included in the Company’s periodic filings under the
Exchange Act
, was (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
During the fiscal year ended August 31, 2021, there were no significant changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting, or in other factors that could significantly affect such internal controls, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
 
 
IDENTIFICATION OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE
The Company has a standing audit committee of the board of directors (the “Audit Committee”) established in accordance with Section 3(a)(58)(A) of the
Exchange Act
. The Audit Committee consists of Carl E. Vogel (Chair), Richard R. Green, Jeffrey C. Royer, and Michael W. O’Brien.
 
 
AUDIT COMMITTEE FINANCIAL EXPERT
The board of directors of the Company has determined that it has three audit committee financial experts serving on its Audit Committee. Each of Carl E. Vogel, Michael W. O’Brien, and Jeffrey C. Royer has been determined to be such an audit committee financial expert, within the meaning of Item 407 of Regulation
S-K.
Each of Mr. Vogel, Mr. O’Brien, and Mr. Royer is independent, as that term is defined by the New York Stock Exchange’s listing standards applicable to the Company. The Securities and Exchange Commission has indicated that the designation of each of Mr. Vogel, Mr. O’Brien, and Mr. Royer as an audit committee financial expert does not make each of Mr. Vogel, Mr. O’Brien, and Mr. Royer an “expert” for any purpose, impose any duties, obligations or liability on any of Mr. Vogel, Mr. O’Brien, and Mr. Royer that are greater than those imposed on members of the Audit Committee and board of directors of the Company who do not carry this designation, or affect the duties, obligations or liabilities of any other member of the Audit Committee.

Audit-related fees for fiscal 2021 relate to assurance services in respect of an environmental and regulatory report and for fiscal 2020 relate to services performed in conjunction with senior note and securities offerings and assurance services in respect of an environmental and regulatory report. The tax fees for fiscal 2021 relate to tax advisory services on the proposed transaction with Rogers Communications Inc. and general tax advisory services and for fiscal 2020 relate to general tax advisory services.
The Audit Committee considered and agreed that the above fees are compatible with maintaining the independence of the Company’s auditors. Further, the Audit Committee determined that, in order to ensure the continued independence of the auditors, only limited
non-audit
services will be provided to the Company by Ernst & Young LLP and in such case, only with the prior approval of the Audit Committee. The Chair of the Audit Committee has been delegated authority to approve the retainer of Ernst & Young LLP to provide
non-audit
services in extraordinary circumstances where it is not feasible or practical to convene a meeting of the Audit Committee, subject to an aggregate limit of $150,000 in fees payable to Ernst & Young LLP for such services at any time until it is ratified by the Audit Committee. The Chair of the Audit Committee is required to report any such services approved by him to the Audit Committee at its next regularly scheduled quarterly meeting.
For the fiscal year ended August 31, 2021, none of the services described above were approved by the Audit Committee pursuant to the “
de minimus
exception” set forth in Rule
2-01,
paragraph (c)(7)(i)(C) of Regulation
S-X.
