-i- October 18, 2017 Dear Richmont Shareholders: On behalf of the board of directors and management of Richmont Mines Inc. (“Richmont”), we would like to invite you to attend a special meeting (the “Richmont Meeting”) of holders (“Richmont Shareholders”) of common shares of Richmont (“Richmont Shares”) to be held at 10:00 a.m. (Eastern time) on November 16, 2017 at Fasken Martineau DuMoulin LLP, 333 Bay Street, 24th Floor, Toronto, Ontario M5H 2T6. The Arrangement At the Richmont Meeting, Richmont Shareholders will, among other things, be asked to consider and, if deemed advisable, to pass a special resolution (the “Richmont Arrangement Resolution”) approving a statutory arrangement (the “Arrangement”) under the provisions of Chapter XVI – Division II of the Business Corporations Act (Québec) pursuant to an arrangement agreement dated as of September 11, 2017 (the “Arrangement Agreement”) between Richmont and Alamos Gold Inc. (“Alamos”). The Arrangement provides for the exchange of Richmont Shares for Class A common shares of Alamos (“Alamos Shares”) based on an exchange ratio of 1.385 Alamos Shares for each Richmont Share (the “Exchange Ratio”). The Exchange Ratio implies consideration of C$14.20 for each Richmont Share, based on the closing price of the Alamos Shares on the Toronto Stock Exchange (the “TSX”) on September 8, 2017. This consideration represents a 22% premium to the closing price of the Richmont Shares on the TSX as at September 8, 2017 and a 32% premium based on the 20-day volume-weighted average prices of the Richmont Shares and the Alamos Shares on the TSX, calculated as of such date. Each option to acquire Richmont Shares (each, a “Richmont Option”) not exercised prior to the effective time of the Arrangement will be exchanged for options (each, an “Alamos Replacement Option”) to acquire that number of Alamos Shares equal to the number of Richmont Shares subject to such Richmont Options, multiplied by the Exchange Ratio. The Alamos Replacement Options shall expire one year from the date of issuance. Each outstanding restricted share unit (“Retained Employee RSU”) held by an employee of Richmont or a subsidiary of Richmont that is being offered employment by Alamos or is continuing in their employment with Richmont or a subsidiary of Richmont shall be exchanged for an award granted by Alamos having the value of such Retained Employee RSU immediately prior to the effective time of the Arrangement. Under the Arrangement, each Richmont Shareholder, other than a Richmont Shareholder which has validly exercised its dissent rights, will receive, upon compliance with the terms and conditions set forth in the plan of arrangement (the “Plan of Arrangement”) attached as Appendix E to the accompanying joint management information circular of Richmont and Alamos (the “Circular”), 1.385 Alamos Shares in consideration for each such Richmont Shareholder’s Richmont Shares. Board Recommendation THE RICHMONT BOARD OF DIRECTORS, AFTER CONSULTATION WITH ITS OUTSIDE LEGAL COUNSEL AND FINANCIAL ADVISORS, UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT RICHMONT SHAREHOLDERS VOTE IN FAVOUR OF THE RICHMONT ARRANGEMENT RESOLUTION. Voting Agreements Each of the directors and officers of Richmont has entered into a voting and support agreement with Alamos pursuant to which they have agreed, among other things, to support the Arrangement and vote all Richmont Shares beneficially owned by them in favour of the Richmont Arrangement Resolution.

-ii- Shareholder Vote In order to become effective, the Richmont Arrangement Resolution will require: (i) the affirmative vote of at least 66⅔% of the votes cast by Richmont Shareholders, voting as a single class, who vote in person or by proxy at the Richmont Meeting; and (ii) the affirmative vote of at least a simple majority of the votes cast by Richmont Shareholders, voting as a single class, who vote in person or by proxy at the Richmont Meeting, after excluding the votes cast by certain persons whose votes may not be included in determining minority approval of a business combination pursuant to Multilateral Instrument 61-101 – Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions. The Arrangement is also subject to the approval of the holders of Alamos Shares (“Alamos Shareholders”) at a special meeting of Alamos Shareholders to be held on the day of the Richmont Meeting, the approval of the Superior Court of Québec and the satisfaction of certain closing conditions which are customary in transactions of this nature, all as more fully described in the accompanying Circular.

The Arrangement On September 11, 2017, we announced that Alamos and Richmont Mines Inc. (“Richmont”) had entered into an arrangement agreement dated as of September 11, 2017 (the “Arrangement Agreement”) which contemplates the acquisition by Alamos of all of the common shares of Richmont (“Richmont Shares”).

Each option to acquire Richmont Shares (each, a “Richmont Option”) not exercised prior to the effective time of the Arrangement will be exchanged for options (each, an “Alamos Replacement Option”) to acquire that number of Alamos Shares equal to the number of Richmont Shares subject to such Richmont Options multiplied by the Exchange Ratio. The Alamos Replacement Options shall expire one year from the date of issuance. Each outstanding restricted share unit (“Retained Employee RSU”) held by an employee of Richmont or a subsidiary of Richmont that is being offered employment by Alamos or is continuing in their employment with Richmont or a subsidiary of Richmont shall be exchanged for an award granted by Alamos having the value of such Retained Employee RSU immediately prior to the effective time of the Arrangement. As a result of the Arrangement, Alamos will add the low-cost, long-life, cash flow-generating Island Gold Mine located in northern Ontario to its asset portfolio. Upon completion of the Arrangement, existing Alamos Shareholders will continue to collectively own approximately 77% of the Alamos Shares, and former holders of Richmont Shares will collectively own approximately 23% of the Alamos Shares. At the Alamos Meeting, Alamos Shareholders will, among other things, be asked to consider and, if deemed advisable, to pass an ordinary resolution (the “Alamos Share Issuance Resolution”) approving the issuance of such number of Alamos Shares as may be required to be issued to holders of Richmont Shares pursuant to the Arrangement.

NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that, pursuant to an order (the “Interim Order”) of the Superior Court of Québec dated October 17, 2017, a special meeting (the “Richmont Meeting”) of holders (the “Richmont Shareholders”) of shares (“Richmont Shares”) of Richmont Mines Inc. (“Richmont”) will be held at 10:00 a.m. (Eastern time) on November 16, 2017 at Fasken Martineau DuMoulin LLP, 333 Bay Street, 24th Floor, Toronto, Ontario M5H 2T6, for the following purposes:  to consider and, if deemed advisable, to approve, with or without variation, a special resolution (the “Richmont Arrangement Resolution”), the full text of which is attached as Appendix A to the accompanying joint management information circular (the “Circular”) of Richmont and Alamos Gold Inc. (“Alamos”), approving the arrangement involving Richmont and Alamos (the “Arrangement”) pursuant to the arrangement agreement dated as of September 11, 2017 between Richmont and Alamos under Chapter XVI - Division II of the Business Corporations Act (Québec) (“QBCA”), all as more particularly set forth in the accompanying Circular; and  to transact such other business as may properly come before the Richmont Meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof. This Notice of Special Meeting is accompanied by the Circular, which provides additional information relating to the matters to be dealt with at the Richmont Meeting and forms part of this Notice of Special Meeting. Completion of the proposed Arrangement is conditional upon certain other matters described in the Circular, including the approval of the Alamos share issuance resolution by Alamos shareholders at the Alamos meeting, the approval of the Superior Court of Québec and receipt of required regulatory and stock exchange approvals. Richmont Shareholders who are unable to attend the Richmont Meeting are requested to complete, date, sign and return the enclosed form of Richmont proxy so that as large a representation as possible may be had at the Richmont Meeting. The board of directors of Richmont has passed a resolution to fix 5:00 p.m. (Eastern time) on October 17, 2017 as the record date for the determination of the registered holders of Richmont Shares who will be entitled to receive notice of the Richmont Meeting, or any adjournment or postponement thereof, and who will be entitled to vote at the Richmont Meeting. Proxies to be used or acted upon at the Richmont Meeting must be deposited with Richmont’s transfer agent, Computershare Trust Company of Canada, by 10:00 a.m. (Eastern time) on November 14, 2017 (or a day other than a Saturday, Sunday or holiday which is at least 48 hours before any adjournment or postponement of the Richmont Meeting). The time limit for deposit of proxies may be waived or extended by the chair of the Richmont Meeting at his discretion, without notice. Pursuant to and in accordance with the Plan of Arrangement, the Interim Order and the provisions of Chapter XIV – Division I of the QBCA (as modified or supplemented by the Interim Order, the Plan of Arrangement and any other order of the Court), Richmont Shareholders have a right to demand the repurchase of their Richmont Shares in connection with the Arrangement and, if the Richmont Arrangement Resolution is passed and the Arrangement becomes effective, to be paid the fair value of their Richmont Shares (the “Dissent Rights”); provided such Richmont Shareholders exercise all of their available voting rights against the adoption and approval of the Richmont Arrangement Resolution. Dissent Rights are more particularly described in the accompanying Circular. The repurchase procedures require that a Richmont Shareholder who wishes to exercise Dissent Rights must send Richmont a written notice to inform Richmont of the Richmont Shareholder’s intention to exercise Dissent Rights (the “Dissent Notice”), which notice must be received by the Secretary of Richmont, at 161 avenue Principale, Rouyn-Noranda, Québec J9X 4P6, fax number: 819-797-0166, with a copy to Fasken Martineau DuMoulin LLP, Stock Exchange Tower, 800 Square Victoria, Suite 3700, P.O. Box 242, Montréal, Québec, fax number: 1-514-397- 7600, Attention: Alain Riendeau, by 5:00 p.m. (Montréal time) on November 14, 2017 (or 5:00 p.m. (Montréal time) on the day that is two business days immediately preceding the date that any adjourned or postponed Meeting is reconvened or held, as the case may be).

-vi- The statutory provisions covering the Dissent Rights are technical and complex. Failure to strictly comply with the requirements set forth in Chapter XIV – Division I of the QBCA, as modified by the Interim Order, the Plan of Arrangement and any other order of the Court, may result in the loss of Dissent Rights. Persons who are beneficial owners of Richmont Shares registered in the name of a broker, investment dealer, bank, trust company, custodian, nominee or other intermediary who wish to exercise Dissent Rights should be aware that only registered holders of Richmont Shares are entitled to exercise Dissent Rights. A holder of Richmont Shares wishing to exercise Dissent Rights may only exercise such rights with respect to all Richmont Shares held on behalf of any one beneficial holder and registered in the name of such Richmont Shareholder. The Richmont Shares are most likely global securities registered in the name of CDS & Co. with CDS & Co. as the sole registered holder of the Richmont Shares. Accordingly, a non-registered owner of Richmont Shares desiring to exercise Dissent Rights must make arrangements for the Richmont Shares beneficially owned by that holder to be registered in that holder’s name prior to the time the Dissent Notice is required to be received by Richmont or, alternatively, make arrangements for the registered holder of such Richmont Shares to exercise Dissent Rights on behalf of the holder. Note that sections 393 to 397 of the QBCA, the text of which is attached as Appendix L to the Circular, set forth special provisions which are required to be followed with respect to the exercise of Dissent Rights by non-registered holders of Richmont Shares.

RICHMONT SHAREHOLDERS - QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT THE ARRANGEMENT AND THE RICHMONT MEETING The information contained below is of a summary nature and therefore is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by the more detailed information contained elsewhere in or incorporated by reference into this Circular, including the appendices hereto, the form of proxy and the Letter of Transmittal, all of which are important and should be reviewed carefully. Capitalized terms used in these questions and answers but not otherwise defined herein have the meanings set forth in “Glossary of Terms” of this Circular. Q: Why is the Richmont Meeting being held? A. The Richmont Meeting is being held because Richmont and Alamos have entered into a definitive arrangement agreement whereby Alamos will acquire all of the outstanding Richmont Shares by way of the Arrangement. Q: What are Richmont Shareholders being asked to vote on? A: Richmont Shareholders will be asked to vote on the Richmont Arrangement Resolution authorizing and approving the arrangement between Richmont and Alamos under Chapter XVI – Division II of the QBCA pursuant to which Alamos will acquire all of the outstanding Richmont Shares. In addition, all of the outstanding Richmont Options and Richmont Retained Employee RSUs, to the extent they have not been exercised or settled, as applicable, prior to the effective time of the Arrangement, as applicable, will be exchanged for Alamos Replacement Options and Alamos Replacement RSUs, respectively. Upon completion of the Arrangement, and assuming all Richmont Options are exchanged for Alamos Replacement Options and all Richmont Retained Employee RSUs are exchanged for Alamos Replacement RSUs, existing Alamos Shareholders will continue to collectively own approximately 77% of the Alamos Shares, and former holders of Richmont Shares will collectively own approximately 23% of the Alamos Shares. Q: What consideration will I receive for my Richmont Shares? A: The Arrangement provides for, among other things, the exchange of Richmont Shares for Alamos Shares on the basis of 1.385 Alamos Shares for each Richmont Share outstanding. Q: Does this consideration reflect a premium for the Richmont Shares? A: The Exchange Ratio, being the number of Alamos Shares being offered to Richmont Shareholders for each Richmont Share, implies a share price premium for Richmont Shareholders as of the date of the announcement of the Arrangement Agreement. The amount of the premium will vary according to the relative market prices of the Alamos Shares and Richmont Shares up until the time of closing. On September 11, 2017, the date of the announcement of the transaction, the Arrangement implied consideration of C$14.20 per Richmont Share, based on the closing price of the Alamos Shares on the TSX as at September 8, 2017. This consideration represents a 22% premium to the closing price of the Richmont Shares on the TSX as at September 8, 2017 and a 32% premium based on 20-day volume-weighted average trading prices of the Richmont Shares and the Alamos Shares on the TSX, calculated as of such date. Q: When and where is the Richmont Meeting being held? A: The Richmont Meeting will be held at 10:00 a.m. (Eastern time) on November 16, 2017 at the offices of Fasken Martineau DuMoulin LLP, 333 Bay Street, 24th Floor, Toronto, Ontario M5H 2T6. Q: Who is entitled to vote at the Richmont Meeting?

- 2 - Q: When do I have to vote my Richmont Shares by? A: Proxies must be received no later than 10:00 a.m. (Eastern time) on November 14, 2017, or, in the event that the Richmont Meeting is postponed, on a business day that is least 48 hours before the date to which the meeting is adjourned or postponed.

Q: What are the benefits of the Arrangement to Richmont Shareholders? A: Richmont shareholders are expected to benefit from the Arrangement as a result of:  An immediate and significant premium of approximately 32% based on the 20-day volume-weighted average prices of both companies, as at September 8, 2017;  Meaningful ownership in Alamos’ high-quality portfolio of assets, including diversified North American gold production and peer-leading growth potential;  Continued exposure to the Island Gold Mine’s significant operating and exploration upside potential;

- 3 -  Alamos post-Arrangement provides a significant revaluation potential as a diversified intermediate producer expected to have gold production of over 500,000 ounces in 2017;  Significantly improved trading liquidity and capital markets exposure as shareholders of Alamos; and  Ongoing return on capital to shareholders through anticipated participation in Alamos’ practice of semi- annual dividends.

Q: What are the Canadian federal income tax consequences of the Arrangement to Richmont Shareholders? A: Subject to the qualifications set forth in this Circular, the exchange of Richmont Shares for Alamos Shares pursuant to the Arrangement generally should not give rise to any capital gain or capital loss to Richmont Shareholders under Canadian federal income tax laws. See “Certain Canadian Federal Income Tax Considerations for Richmont Shareholders”.

Because individual circumstances may differ, you should consult with your tax advisor as to the specific tax consequences of the Arrangement to you. Q: What are the United States federal income tax consequences of the Arrangement to Richmont Shareholders? A: For U.S. federal income tax purposes, Alamos and Richmont intend to treat the Arrangement as a tax-deferred “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the U.S. Tax Code. If the Arrangement so qualifies, then, subject to the limitations and qualifications described in “Certain United States Federal Income Tax Considerations for Richmont Shareholders”, a U.S. Holder generally will recognize no gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes upon the exchange of Richmont Shares for Alamos Shares pursuant to the Arrangement, except to the extent of any cash received in lieu of a fractional Alamos Share. See “Certain United States Federal Income Tax Considerations for Richmont Shareholders”, which qualifies in its entirety the information set forth above. Tax matters are complicated, and the tax consequences of the Arrangement to you will depend upon the facts of your particular circumstances. Because individual circumstances may differ, you should consult your tax advisor as to the specific tax consequences of the Arrangement to you, including the applicability of U.S. federal, state, local, non-U.S. and other tax laws.

It is a condition of closing that the Alamos Shares issuable under the Arrangement shall have been conditionally approved for listing on the TSX and the NYSE, subject to the satisfaction of customary conditions required by such exchanges. Q: Are Richmont Shareholders entitled to Dissent Rights? A: Yes. Under the Interim Order, registered holders of Richmont Shares are entitled to Dissent Rights, but only if they follow the procedures specified in the QBCA, as modified by Article 5 of the Plan of Arrangement, the Interim Order and the Final Order. If you wish to exercise Dissent Rights, you should review the requirements summarized in this Circular carefully and consult with your legal advisor. See “The Arrangement – Dissent Rights for Richmont Shareholders”. Q: What will happen if the Richmont Arrangement Resolution is not approved or the Arrangement is not completed for any reason?

In certain circumstances, if the Richmont Arrangement Resolution is not approved and the Arrangement Agreement is terminated, Richmont will be required to reimburse Alamos for actual, out-of-pocket expenses, subject to a maximum of C$2 million. In certain such circumstances, including if Richmont proposes to enter into any agreement, arrangement or understanding in respect of a Richmont Superior Proposal, Richmont will be required to pay to Alamos a termination fee of C$35 million in connection with such termination. In certain other circumstances, including if Alamos proposes to enter into any agreement, arrangement or understanding in respect of an Alamos Superior Proposal which, among other things, requires that such proposed transaction be conditional on the Arrangement not being completed, Alamos will be required to pay to Richmont a termination fee of C$35 million in connection with such termination. See “Summary of Material Agreements – The Arrangement Agreement – Termination”. Q: Should I send my Richmont share certificates in now?

- 12 - Opinions of the Financial Advisors Fairness Opinions of Macquarie Capital and Maxit Capital In determining to approve the Arrangement, the Richmont Board considered, among other things, the fairness opinions of its financial advisors, Macquarie Capital and Maxit Capital. The Richmont Fairness Opinions each concluded that, subject to the scope of review, assumptions and limitations contained therein, the consideration to be received by Richmont Shareholders pursuant to the Arrangement is fair, from a financial point of view, to Richmont Shareholders. The Richmont Fairness Opinions are attached as Appendix F and Appendix G to this Circular. Richmont encourages you to read these opinions in their entirety. See “The Arrangement – Richmont Fairness Opinions”.

The Alamos Fairness Opinion is attached to this Circular as Appendix H. The foregoing is a summary and Alamos encourages you to read this opinion in its entirety. See “The Arrangement – Alamos Fairness Opinion”. BMO Capital Markets provided the Alamos Fairness Opinion for the information and assistance of the Alamos Board in connection with its consideration of the Arrangement. The Alamos Fairness Opinion is not a recommendation as to how any Alamos Shareholder should vote with respect to the Arrangement or any other matter. RECOMMENDATIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS OF RICHMONT AND SHAREHOLDERS OF ALAMOS The Richmont Board UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS that Richmont Shareholders VOTE IN FAVOUR of the Richmont Arrangement Resolution. The Alamos Board UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS that Alamos Shareholders VOTE IN FAVOUR of the Alamos Share Issuance Resolution. Recommendation of the Richmont Board After careful consideration, including consultation with its legal and financial advisors, the unanimous recommendation of the Richmont Special Committee, the receipt of the Richmont Fairness Opinions and the other factors set out below under the heading “The Arrangement – Recommendation of the Richmont Board – Reasons for the Recommendation of the Richmont Board”, the Richmont Board determined that the Arrangement is in the best interests of Richmont and is fair to the Richmont Shareholders, and unanimously passed a resolution approving the Arrangement, authorizing the entering into of the Arrangement Agreement and recommending that Richmont Shareholders VOTE IN FAVOUR of the Richmont Arrangement Resolution. Reasons for the Recommendations of the Richmont Board In the course of its evaluation of the Arrangement, the Richmont Board considered a number of factors, including those listed below, with the benefit of input from the Richmont Special Committee and advice from Richmont’s senior management, Macquarie Capital and Maxit Capital, and Richmont’s legal counsel. The following is a summary of the principal reasons for the unanimous recommendation of the Richmont Board that Richmont Shareholders VOTE IN FAVOUR of the Richmont Arrangement Resolution:

- 13 -  Immediate and significant premium to Richmont Shareholders. The Exchange Ratio implies consideration of C$14.20 per Richmont Share, based on the closing price of Alamos Shares on the TSX on September 8, 2017, the last trading day prior to the announcement of the Arrangement. This represents a premium of approximately 22% to the closing price of the Richmont Shares on the TSX on September 8, 2017 and a premium of approximately 32% based on the volume-weighted average prices of the Richmont Shares and the Alamos Shares on the TSX for the 20 trading days ended September 8, 2017.  Meaningful ownership in a diversified, high-quality asset portfolio. Following completion of the Arrangement, and assuming all Richmont Options are exchanged for Alamos Replacement Options and all Richmont Retained Employee RSUs are exchanged for Alamos Replacement RSUs, Richmont Shareholders will own approximately 23% of the Alamos Shares. This provides Richmont Shareholders with meaningful ownership in Alamos’ high-quality portfolio of assets, including diversified North American gold production and peer-leading growth potential, and diversifies Richmont’s single mine risk profile.  Continued exposure to the Island Gold Mine. As a result of their pro forma ownership interest in Alamos, Richmont Shareholders will have continued exposure to the Island Gold Mine’s significant operating and exploration upside potential.  Significant revaluation potential. Alamos post-Arrangement provides significant revaluation potential as a diversified intermediate producer with established growth potential approaching one million ounces per year.  Improved trading liquidity and capital markets exposure. Alamos post-Arrangement will have a market capitalization of approximately $4.0 billion (on a non-diluted basis, based on the closing prices of Richmont Shares and Alamos Shares on the TSX on September 8, 2017, the last trading day prior to the announcement of the Arrangement). The Richmont Board believes that this will significantly improve trading liquidity and capital markets exposure.  Participation in Alamos’ semi-annual dividend. Richmont Shareholders are expected to benefit from Alamos’ historic practice of returning value to its shareholders in the form of a semi-annual dividend.  Fairness opinions. The Richmont Board has received fairness opinions from each of Macquarie Capital and Maxit Capital to the effect that, as at September 10, 2017, and subject to the assumptions, limitations and qualifications set out therein, the consideration to be received by Richmont Shareholders pursuant to the Arrangement is fair, from a financial point of view, to Richmont Shareholders. See “The Arrangement – Richmont Fairness Opinions”.  Support of Richmont directors and senior officers. All of the directors and senior officers of Richmont have entered into the Richmont Lock-Up Agreements pursuant to which they have agreed, among other things, to vote their Richmont Shares in favour of the Richmont Arrangement Resolution. As of the date of the Arrangement Agreement, the Richmont Locked-Up Shareholders collectively beneficially owned or exercised control or direction over an aggregate of approximately 2,461,161 Richmont Shares or other securities of Richmont, representing approximately 3.74% of the Richmont Shares on a fully diluted basis.  Tax-deferred rollover for Canadian Richmont Shareholders. In general, the exchange of Richmont Shares for Alamos Shares under the Arrangement will not give rise to a capital gain (or capital loss) to a Richmont Shareholder who is resident in Canada and holds its Richmont Shares as capital property for purposes of the Tax Act unless such Richmont Shareholder chooses to report such capital gain (or capital loss) in the Richmont Shareholder’s income tax return for the year in which the exchange occurs. See “Certain Canadian Federal Income Tax Considerations for Richmont Shareholders”.  Tax-deferred rollover for U.S. Richmont Shareholders. For U.S. federal income tax purposes, Alamos and Richmont intend to treat the Arrangement as a tax-deferred “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the U.S. Tax Code. If the Arrangement so qualifies, then, subject to the limitations and qualifications described in “Certain United States Federal Income Tax Considerations for Richmont Shareholders”, a U.S. Holder generally will recognize no gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes upon the exchange of Richmont Shares for Alamos Shares pursuant to the Arrangement, except to the extent of any cash received in lieu of a fractional Alamos Share.

- 14 -  Other factors. The Richmont Board also considered the Arrangement with reference to the financial condition and results of operations of Richmont, as well as its prospects, strategic alternatives and competitive position, including the risks involved in achieving those prospects and pursuing those alternatives in light of current market conditions and Richmont’s financial position. The Richmont Board also considered the risks relating to the Arrangement, including those matters described under the heading “Risk Factors”. The Richmont Board believes that, overall, the anticipated benefits of the Arrangement to Richmont outweigh these risks. In making its determinations and recommendations, the Richmont Board also observed that a number of procedural safeguards were in place and are present to permit the Richmont Board to represent the interests of Richmont, the Richmont Shareholders and Richmont’s other stakeholders. These procedural safeguards include, among others:  Role of independent directors. The Arrangement was reviewed and evaluated by the Richmont Special Committee, comprised of members of the Richmont Board who are independent of Alamos and of management of Richmont. Following consultation with its legal and financial advisors and receipt of the Richmont Fairness Opinions, the Richmont Special Committee unanimously determined that the Arrangement is in the best interests of Richmont and is fair to the Richmont Shareholders and unanimously recommended that the Richmont Board (i) approve the Arrangement Agreement and (ii) recommend that Richmont Shareholders vote in favour of the Richmont Arrangement Resolution.  Ability to respond to superior proposals. Notwithstanding the limitations contained in the Arrangement Agreement on Richmont’s ability to solicit interest from third parties, the Arrangement Agreement allows Richmont to engage in discussions or negotiations regarding any unsolicited Acquisition Proposal received prior to the Richmont Meeting that constitutes or that may reasonably be expected to lead to a Richmont Superior Proposal.  Reasonable Termination Payment. The amount of the Alamos Termination Payment, being C$35 million and payable under certain circumstances described under “Summary of Material Agreements – The Arrangement Agreement – Termination – Termination Payments”, is reasonable.  Shareholder approval. The Arrangement must be approved by (i) the affirmative vote of at least 66⅔% of the votes cast on the Richmont Arrangement Resolution by Richmont Shareholders, and (ii) the affirmative vote of at least a simple majority of the votes cast by Richmont Shareholders, who vote in person or by proxy at the Richmont Meeting, excluding the votes cast by interested parties (as defined in MI 61-101), related parties (as defined in MI 61-101) of such interested parties and joint actors (as defined in MI 61-101) of such interested parties or related parties.  Court and regulatory approvals. The Arrangement must be approved by the Court, which will consider, among other things, the substantive and procedural fairness and the reasonableness of the Arrangement to Richmont Shareholders. The Arrangement Agreement also contains a condition precedent that all regulatory approvals shall be obtained prior to closing.  Dissent Rights. The availability of rights of dissent to registered Richmont Shareholders with respect to the Arrangement. See “The Arrangement – Dissent Rights for Richmont Shareholders”. See “The Arrangement – Recommendation of the Richmont Board – Reasons for the Recommendation of the Richmont Board”. Recommendation of the Alamos Board After careful consideration, including consultation with its legal and financial advisors, the receipt of the Alamos Fairness Opinion and the other factors set out below under the heading “The Arrangement – Recommendation of the Richmont Board – Reasons for the Recommendation of the Alamos Board”, the Alamos Board determined that the Arrangement is in the best interests of Alamos, and unanimously passed a resolution approving the Arrangement, authorizing the entering into of the Arrangement Agreement and recommending that Alamos Shareholders VOTE IN FAVOUR of the Alamos Share Issuance Resolution.

- 15 - Reasons for the Recommendations of the Alamos Board In the course of its evaluation of the Arrangement, the Alamos Board considered a number of factors, including those listed below, with the benefit of advice from Alamos’ senior management, BMO Capital Markets and Alamos’ legal counsel. The following is a summary of the principal reasons for the unanimous recommendation of the Alamos Board that Alamos Shareholders VOTE IN FAVOUR of the Alamos Share Issuance Resolution:  Acquisition of a high-quality, free cash flowing mine in a world class jurisdiction. The Island Gold Mine is a long-life, high-grade, underground mine with exploration potential, increasing production and first quartile cash costs, located in Ontario, Canada.  Solidifies Alamos’ position as a leading intermediate gold producer. Alamos is expected to have diversified gold production of over 500,000 ounces in 2017, anchored by three core, low-cost, long-life operations in Canada and Mexico.  Superior production growth and cost profile. The Island Gold Mine’s near-term production growth complements Alamos’ existing peer-leading growth profile, while lowering the near- and long-term cost profile of Alamos. The Alamos Board also anticipates delivery of cost savings through corporate, tax and other operating synergies.  Improved cash flow generation to support peer leading growth pipeline. The Island Gold Mine provides immediate cash flow accretion and strong operating cash flow to support internal growth initiatives of Alamos.  Stronger financial position and flexibility. Alamos will have increased financial flexibility with enhanced free cash flow and a strengthened balance sheet with cash and equity securities of approximately $201 million as at June 30, 2017 on a pro forma basis.  Revaluation opportunity through enhanced capital markets profile. Alamos will become a top 10 gold producer in North America (based on estimated 2018 production), with nearly 60% of its production in Canada, peer leading growth, a strong balance sheet, proven management team, and expected increased trading liquidity providing a strong revaluation opportunity through its potentially enhanced appeal in the market.  Fairness opinion. The Alamos Board has received a fairness opinion from BMO Capital Markets to the effect that, as at September 10, 2017, and subject to the assumptions, limitations and qualifications set out therein, the consideration to be paid by Alamos pursuant to the Arrangement is fair, from a financial point of view, to Alamos. See “The Arrangement – Alamos Fairness Opinion”.  Support of Alamos directors and senior officers. All of the directors and senior officers of Alamos have entered into the Alamos Lock-Up Agreements pursuant to which they have agreed, among other things, to vote their Alamos Shares in favour of the Alamos Share Issuance Resolution. As of the date of the Arrangement Agreement, the Alamos Locked-Up Shareholders collectively beneficially owned or exercised control or direction over an aggregate of approximately 6,373,250 Alamos Shares or other securities of Alamos convertible into Alamos Shares, representing approximately 1.97% of the Alamos Shares on a fully diluted basis.  Other factors. The Alamos Board also considered the Arrangement with reference to current economic, industry and market trends affecting each of Alamos and Richmont in the gold market, information concerning the reserves and resources, business, operations, properties, assets, financial condition, operating results and prospects of each of Alamos and Richmont and the then historical trading prices of the Alamos Shares and the Richmont Shares. In addition, the Alamos Board considered the risks relating to the Arrangement, including those matters described under the heading “Risk Factors”. The Alamos Board believes that, overall, the anticipated benefits of the Arrangement to Alamos outweigh these risks. In making its determinations and recommendations, the Alamos Board also observed that a number of procedural safeguards were in place and are present to permit the Alamos Board to represent the interests of Alamos, the Alamos Shareholders and Alamos’ other stakeholders. These procedural safeguards include, among others:

- 16 -  Ability to respond to superior proposals. Notwithstanding the limitations contained in the Arrangement Agreement on Alamos’ ability to solicit interest from third parties, the Arrangement Agreement allows Alamos to engage in discussions or negotiations regarding any unsolicited Acquisition Proposal received prior to the Alamos Meeting that constitutes or that may reasonably be expected to lead to an Alamos Superior Proposal.  Reasonable Termination Payment. The amount of the Termination Payment, being C$35 million and payable under certain circumstances described under “Summary of Material Agreements – The Arrangement Agreement – Termination – Termination Payments”, is reasonable.  Shareholder approval. The Alamos Share Issuance Resolution must be approved by the affirmative vote of at least a simple majority of the votes cast by Alamos Shareholders who vote in person or by proxy at the Alamos Meeting. See “The Arrangement – Recommendation of the Alamos Board – Reasons for the Recommendation of the Alamos Board”. Lock-Up Agreements The Richmont Locked-Up Shareholders have each entered into the Richmont Lock-Up Agreements with Alamos pursuant to which they have agreed, among other things, to support the Arrangement and vote their Richmont securities in favour of the Richmont Arrangement Resolution. As of September 8, 2017, the Richmont Locked-Up Shareholders, together with their associates and affiliates, owned or exercised control or direction over an aggregate 366,536 Richmont Shares, 1,752,220 Richmont Options, 230,968 Richmont RSUs and 111,437 Richmont DSUs representing approximately 3.74% of the Richmont Shares (on a fully diluted basis) on such date. The Richmont Lock-Up Agreements may be terminated by the Richmont Locked-Up Shareholders in certain limited circumstances, including in the event that the Arrangement Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms. See “Summary of Material Agreements – Lock-Up Agreements”. The Alamos Locked-Up Shareholders have each entered into the Alamos Lock-Up Agreements with Richmont pursuant to which they have agreed, among other things, to support the Arrangement and vote their Alamos securities in favour of the Alamos Share Issuance Resolution. As of September 8, 2017, the Alamos Locked-Up Shareholders, together with their associates and affiliates, owned or exercised control or direction over an aggregate 1,107,878 Alamos Shares, 4,306,470 Alamos Options, 609,210 Alamos PSUs, 477,018 Alamos RSUs (only 43,830 of which can be settled through the issuance of Alamos Shares) or 445,745 Alamos DSUs (only 305,863 of which can be settled through the issuance of Alamos Shares) representing approximately 1.97% of the Alamos Shares (on a fully diluted basis) on such date. The Alamos Lock-Up Agreements may be terminated by the Alamos Locked-Up Shareholders in certain limited circumstances, including in the event that the Arrangement Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms. See “Summary of Material Agreements – Lock-Up Agreements”. Procedure for the Arrangement to Become Effective Summary of Key Procedural Steps The Arrangement is proposed to be carried out pursuant to Chapter XVI – Division II of the QBCA. The following procedural steps must be taken in order for the Arrangement to become effective: (a) the Richmont Arrangement Resolution must be approved by the Richmont Shareholders in the manner set forth in the Interim Order; (b) the Alamos Share Issuance Resolution must be approved by the Alamos Shareholders in the manner required by the TSX; (c) the Court must grant the Final Order approving the Arrangement; (d) all conditions precedent to the Arrangement, as set forth in the Arrangement Agreement, must be satisfied or waived by the appropriate party; and (e) the Articles of Arrangement in the form prescribed by the QBCA must be filed with the Enterprise Registrar.

- 17 - Court Approval Implementation of the Arrangement requires the approval of the Court. An application for the Final Order approving the Arrangement is expected to be made on November 21, 2017 at 9:00 a.m. (Eastern time) at the Court, located at 1 Notre Dame Street East, Montréal, Québec, Room 16. At the hearing, the Court will consider, among other things, the fairness of the terms and conditions of the Arrangement and the rights and interests of every person affected. The Court may approve the Arrangement in any manner the Court may direct, subject to compliance with such terms and conditions, if any, as the Court deems fit. See “The Arrangement – Approvals – Court Approval”. Conditions Precedent The implementation of the Arrangement is subject to a number of conditions being satisfied or waived by one or both of Richmont and Alamos at or prior to the Effective Time. See “Summary of Material Agreements – The Arrangement Agreement – Conditions”. Effective Date The Arrangement will become effective at 12:01 a.m. (Eastern time) on the date the Articles of Arrangement are filed with the Enterprise Registrar, which is expected to occur on or about November 23, 2017, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of all the conditions precedent to the Arrangement, including that the Final Order has been granted by the Court. The Companies Richmont Richmont currently produces gold from the Island Gold Mine in Ontario and is also advancing development of the significant high-grade resource extension at depth of the Island Gold Mine. On October 2, 2017, Richmont completed a transaction with Monarques, pursuant to which Monarques acquired Richmont’s Québec-based assets including the Beaufor Mine, the Camflo Mill and the Wasamac Development Project as well as all other mineral claims, mining leases and mining concessions located in the Province of Québec in exchange for Monarques Shares and the retention of net smelter return royalties on the Québec properties. See Appendix I - “Information Concerning Richmont Mines Inc.” Alamos Alamos, a corporation continued under the laws of the Province of Ontario, is a mining company engaged in the mining and extraction of, and exploration for, precious metals, primarily gold. Alamos owns and operates the Young-Davidson Mine in Ontario, Canada and the Mulatos Mine and El Chanate Mine in the state of Sonora, Mexico. Alamos also owns the development-stage Ağı Dağı, Kirazlı and Çamyurt Projects in the Biga district of northwestern Turkey; the Esperanza Project in Morelos State, Mexico; the Quartz Mountain Property in Oregon, USA; and the Lynn Lake Project in Manitoba, Canada. See Appendix J - “Information Concerning Alamos Gold Inc.” Structure of Alamos Post-Arrangement The following chart shows, in a simplified manner, the relationship between Alamos and Richmont immediately following completion of the Arrangement. Below each company’s name is the jurisdiction in which the company was incorporated (or continued), formed or organized.

- 18 - Richmont is a corporation existing under the laws of the Province of Québec. Following the Arrangement, Alamos will continue to be a corporation existing under the laws of the Province of Ontario. The protections available for shareholders of a corporation existing under the QBCA differ in some respects from those available to a corporation existing under the OBCA. See Appendix M – “Summary Comparison of Shareholder Rights Under the QBCA and OBCA” for a summary comparison of certain shareholder rights under the QBCA and the OBCA. Procedures for Exchange of Richmont Shares Enclosed with this Circular is the Letter of Transmittal printed on blue paper which, when properly completed and duly executed and returned to the Depositary together with the certificate or certificates representing Richmont Shares and all other required documents, will enable each Richmont Shareholder to obtain the Alamos Consideration Shares to which such Richmont Shareholder is ultimately entitled under the Arrangement. See “The Arrangement – Procedure for Exchange of Richmont Shares”. Fractional Shares No fractional Alamos Shares shall be issued to any person pursuant to the Plan of Arrangement. Where the aggregate number of Alamos Shares to be issued to a Richmont Shareholder pursuant to the Arrangement would result in a fraction of an Alamos Share being issuable, (i) the number of Alamos Shares to be received by such former Richmont Shareholder shall be rounded down to the nearest whole Alamos Share, and (ii) such former Richmont Shareholder shall receive a cash payment representing such former Richmont Shareholder’s proportionate interest, if any, in the proceeds from the sale by the Depositary (reduced by any fees of the Depositary attributable to such sale), as agent for such former Richmont Shareholders, in one or more transactions, of the number of Alamos Shares (which Alamos shall issue to the Depositary on behalf of such Richmont Shareholders) equal to the excess of (a) the aggregate number of Alamos Shares that otherwise would be issued to the Richmont Shareholders pursuant to the Arrangement over (b) the aggregate number of Alamos Shares actually issued to Richmont Shareholders as described in clause (i) above. See “The Arrangement – Fractional Shares”.

- 19 - Lost Certificates In the event any certificate which immediately prior to the Effective Time represented one or more outstanding Richmont Shares that were transferred pursuant to the Plan of Arrangement shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the person claiming such certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed, the Depositary will pay and deliver, in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed certificate, the Alamos Consideration Shares to which the holder thereof is entitled under the Arrangement, net of any amounts required to be withheld (see “The Arrangement – Withholding Rights”), in accordance with such holder’s Letter of Transmittal. When authorizing such payment and delivery in exchange for any lost, stolen or destroyed certificate, the person to whom the payment is made shall, as a condition precedent to the delivery thereof, give a bond satisfactory to Richmont, Alamos and the Depositary in such sum as Alamos may direct or otherwise indemnify Alamos in a manner satisfactory to Alamos against any claim that may be made against Alamos with respect to the certificate alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed. See “The Arrangement – Lost Certificates”. Dissent Rights for Richmont Shareholders Only registered Richmont Shareholders have the right to demand the repurchase of their Richmont Shares in connection with the Arrangement and, if the Arrangement becomes effective, to be paid the fair value of the Richmont Shares by Richmont. Registered Richmont Shareholders who wish to exercise their Dissent Rights with respect to Richmont Shares held by them must send a Dissent Notice pursuant to and in the manner set forth in the Plan of Arrangement, the Interim Order and the provisions of Chapter XIV – Division I of the QBCA (as modified or supplemented by the Interim Order, the Plan of Arrangement and any other order of the Court) in connection with the Arrangement. Notwithstanding section 376 of the QBCA, the written Dissent Notice referred to in section 376 of the QBCA must be received by the Secretary of Richmont, at 161 avenue Principale, Rouyn-Noranda, Québec J9X 4P6, fax number: 819-797-0166, with a copy to Fasken Martineau DuMoulin LLP, Stock Exchange Tower, 800 Square Victoria, Suite 3700 P.O. Box 242, Montréal, Québec H4Z 1E9, fax number: 1-514-397-7600, Attention: Alain Riendeau no later than 5:00 p.m. (Eastern time) on the business day immediately preceding the Richmont Meeting. The statutory provisions covering the Dissent Rights are technical and complex. Failure to strictly comply with the requirements set forth in Chapter XIV – Division I of the QBCA, as modified by the Interim Order, the Plan of Arrangement and any other order of the Court, may result in the loss of Dissent Rights. Persons who are beneficial owners of Richmont Shares registered in the name of a broker, investment dealer, bank, trust company, custodian, nominee or other intermediary who wish to exercise Dissent Rights should be aware that only registered holders of Richmont Shares are entitled to exercise Dissent Rights. A holder of Richmont Shares wishing to exercise Dissent Rights may only exercise such rights with respect to all Richmont Shares held on behalf of any one beneficial holder and registered in the name of such Richmont Shareholder. The Richmont Shares are most likely global securities registered in the name of CDS & Co. with CDS & Co. as the sole registered holder of the Richmont Shares. Accordingly, a non-registered owner of Richmont Shares desiring to exercise Dissent Rights must make arrangements for the Richmont Shares beneficially owned by that holder to be registered in the name of the Richmont Shareholder prior to the time the Dissent Notice is required to be received by Richmont or, alternatively, make arrangements for the registered holder of such Richmont Shares to exercise Dissent Rights on behalf of the holder. Note that sections 393 to 397 of the QBCA, the text of which is attached as Appendix L to this Circular, set forth special provisions which are required to be followed with respect to the exercise of Dissent Rights by non-registered Richmont Shareholders. Richmont Shareholders who duly exercise such Dissent Rights and who: (i) are ultimately entitled to be paid fair value for their Richmont Shares shall be entitled to be paid by Richmont such fair value and will not be entitled to any other payment or consideration, including any Alamos Shares to which such holder would have been entitled under the Arrangement had such holder not exercised Dissent Rights in respect of Richmont Shares; or (ii) are ultimately not entitled, for any reason, to be paid fair value for their Richmont Shares shall be deemed to have participated in the Arrangement on the same basis as a non-dissenting Richmont Shareholder. In no case shall Richmont, Alamos or any other Person be required to recognize such holders as Richmont Shareholders after the Effective Time, and the names of such Richmont Shareholders shall be deleted from the register of Richmont Shareholders at the Effective Time. It is recommended that you seek independent legal advice if you wish to exercise Dissent Rights. See “The Arrangement – Dissent Rights for Richmont Shareholders”.

- 20 - Stock Exchange Listings for Alamos Consideration Shares The Alamos Shares are listed on the TSX and the NYSE trading under the symbol “AGI”. Alamos has applied to the TSX and the NYSE to list the Alamos Shares issuable under the Arrangement. It is a condition of closing that the TSX and the NYSE shall have conditionally approved the listing of the Alamos Consideration Shares, subject to official notice of issuance and the satisfaction of customary conditions required by such exchanges. Certain Canadian Federal Income Tax Considerations of the Arrangement for Richmont Shareholders Generally, a Resident Holder will not recognize a capital gain or a capital loss in respect of the exchange of Richmont Shares for Alamos Shares unless the Richmont Shareholder chooses to recognize any portion of the capital gain or capital loss otherwise arising by reporting the capital gain or capital loss in the Resident Holder’s tax return under the Tax Act for the Resident Holder’s taxation year in which the exchange occurs. A Non-Resident Holder will generally not be taxable in Canada with respect to any capital gains generated on the disposition of Richmont Shares pursuant to the Arrangement as long as such Richmont Shares do not constitute “taxable Canadian property” of the Non-Resident Holder as defined in the Tax Act. The foregoing summary is qualified in its entirety by the more detailed summary set forth in this Circular under the heading “Certain Canadian Federal Income Tax Considerations for Richmont Shareholders”. Richmont Shareholders are strongly urged to consult their own tax advisors about the possible Canadian federal income tax consequences of the Arrangement. Certain United States Federal Income Tax Considerations of the Arrangement for Richmont Shareholders For U.S. federal income tax purposes, Alamos and Richmont intend to treat the Arrangement as a tax-deferred “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the U.S. Tax Code. However, neither Alamos nor Richmont has sought or obtained (or will seek or obtain) either a ruling from the IRS or an opinion of legal counsel regarding the tax consequences of the transactions described herein. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the IRS will not challenge the treatment of the Arrangement as a reorganization or that a U.S. court would uphold the status of the Arrangement as a reorganization in the event of an IRS challenge. If the Arrangement qualifies as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the U.S. Tax Code, then, subject to the limitations and qualifications described in “Certain United States Federal Income Tax Considerations for Richmont Shareholders”, a U.S. Holder generally will recognize no gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes upon the exchange of Richmont Shares for Alamos Shares pursuant to the Arrangement, except to the extent of any cash received in lieu of a fractional Alamos Share. A Non-U.S. Holder generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on any gain realized upon the exchange of Richmont Shares for Alamos Shares pursuant to the Arrangement. The foregoing summary is qualified in its entirety by the more detailed summary set forth in this Circular under the heading “Certain United States Federal Income Tax Considerations for Richmont Shareholders”. Richmont Shareholders are strongly urged to consult their tax advisors regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Arrangement. Risk Factors There are risks associated with the completion of the Arrangement. Some of these risks include that the Arrangement Agreement may be terminated in certain circumstances, in which case the market price for Richmont Shares or Alamos Shares may be adversely affected. In addition, the completion of the Arrangement is subject to a number of conditions precedent, some of which are outside the control of Richmont and Alamos. See “Risk Factors” and “Summary of Material Agreements – The Arrangement Agreement – Conditions”. Canadian Securities Law Matters The Alamos Consideration Shares to be issued in exchange for Richmont Shares pursuant to the Arrangement will be issued in reliance upon exemptions from the prospectus requirements of securities laws in each province and territory of Canada in which Alamos is a reporting issuer. Subject to customary restrictions applicable to distributions of shares that constitute “control distributions”, Alamos Consideration Shares issued pursuant to the Arrangement will be freely tradable

- 21 - and may be resold in each province and territory in Canada. See “The Arrangement - Issuance and Resale of Alamos Consideration Shares - Canada”. United States Securities Law Matters The Alamos Shares issuable to Richmont Shareholders in exchange for their Richmont Shares under the Arrangement have not been and will not be registered under the U.S. Securities Act, and such securities will be issued in reliance upon the exemption from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act provided by section 3(a)(10) thereof. The Alamos Shares to be received by Richmont Shareholders upon completion of the Arrangement may be resold without restriction in the United States, except in respect of resales by persons who are “affiliates” (within the meaning of Rule 144 under the U.S. Securities Act) of Alamos at the time of such resale or who have been affiliates of Alamos within 90 days before the Effective Time of the Arrangement. Further, the Alamos Shares issuable upon the exercise of the Alamos Replacement Options in the United States after the Effective Time will not be issued in reliance upon section 3(a)(10) of the U.S. Securities Act and such options may be exercised only pursuant to registration under the U.S. Securities Act or an available exemption from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act and pursuant to any applicable state securities laws and, if issued in the United States pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act, will be “restricted securities” within the meaning of Rule 144 under the U.S. Securities Act and will be subject to transfer restrictions. See “The Arrangement - Issuance and Resale of Alamos Consideration Shares - United States”.

- 22 - JOINT MANAGEMENT INFORMATION CIRCULAR Introduction All capitalized terms used in this Circular but not otherwise defined herein have the meanings set forth under the heading “Glossary of Terms”. Information contained in this Circular, including information in the appendices hereto, which form part of this Circular, is given as of October 18th, 2017 unless otherwise specifically stated. This Circular is furnished in connection with the solicitation of proxies by and on behalf of management of Richmont and management of Alamos for use at the Richmont Meeting and the Alamos Meeting, respectively. Management of Richmont and Alamos will solicit proxies primarily by mail, but proxies may also be solicited by telephone, e-mail, facsimile, in writing or in person by directors, officers, employees or agents of Richmont and Alamos. Richmont and Alamos have also jointly retained Laurel Hill to provide the following services in connection with each of the Richmont Meeting and the Alamos Meeting: strategic insight on messaging and shareholder engagement, review and analysis of the Circular, liaising with proxy advisory firms, developing and implementing shareholder communication and engagement strategies, advice with respect to meeting and proxy protocol, reporting and reviewing the tabulation of Richmont Shareholder and Alamos Shareholder proxies, and the solicitation of Richmont Shareholder and Alamos Shareholder proxies including contacting Richmont Shareholders and Alamos Shareholders by telephone. The cost of the proxy solicitation services is approximately C$70,000 (including certain success fees) plus out-of-pocket expenses and applicable taxes for each of Richmont and Alamos. The cost of solicitation of proxies for use at the Richmont Meeting will be paid by Richmont and the cost of solicitation of proxies for use at the Alamos Meeting will be paid by Alamos. The information concerning Richmont and its respective subsidiaries contained in this Circular, including the appendices, has been provided by Richmont for inclusion in this Circular. Although Alamos has no knowledge that any statements contained herein taken from or based on such documents, records or information provided by Richmont are untrue or incomplete, Alamos assumes no responsibility for the accuracy of the information contained in such documents, records or information or for any failure by Richmont to disclose events which may have occurred or may affect the significance or accuracy of any such information but which are unknown to Alamos. The information concerning Alamos and its subsidiaries contained in this Circular, including the appendices, has been provided by Alamos for inclusion in this Circular. Although Richmont has no knowledge that any statements contained herein taken from or based on such documents, records or information provided by Alamos are untrue or incomplete, Richmont assumes no responsibility for the accuracy of the information contained in such documents, records or information or for any failure by Alamos to disclose events which may have occurred or may affect the significance or accuracy of any such information but which are unknown to Richmont. This Circular does not constitute an offer to sell, or a solicitation of an offer to purchase the securities to be issued under or in connection with the Arrangement, or the solicitation of a proxy, in any jurisdiction, to or from any person to whom it is unlawful to make such offer, solicitation of an offer or proxy solicitation in such jurisdiction. Neither the delivery of this Circular nor any distribution of the securities to be issued under or in connection with the Arrangement will, under any circumstances, create any implication or be treated as a representation that there has been no change in the information set forth herein since the date of this Circular. No person has been authorized to give any information or make any representation in connection with the Arrangement or any other matters to be considered at the Richmont Meeting or the Alamos Meeting other than those contained in this Circular and, if given or made, any such information or representation must not be relied upon as having been authorized. All summaries of, and references to, the Arrangement in this Circular are qualified in their entirety by reference to the complete text of the Plan of Arrangement, a copy of which is attached to this Circular as Appendix E. Richmont Shareholders are urged to carefully read the full text of the Plan of Arrangement.

- 23 - NOTICE TO SECURITYHOLDERS IN THE UNITED STATES NEITHER THE SEC NOR ANY STATE SECURITIES COMMISSION HAS APPROVED OR DISAPPROVED OF THESE SECURITIES OR PASSED UPON THE ADEQUACY OR ACCURACY OF THE DISCLOSURES IN THIS CIRCULAR. ANY REPRESENTATION TO THE CONTRARY IS A CRIMINAL OFFENCE. The Alamos Shares to be issued under the Arrangement have not been and will not be registered under the U.S. Securities Act or the securities laws of any state or any other jurisdiction and will be issued in reliance on an exemption from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act provided by section 3(a)(10) thereof, on the basis of the approval of the Court and compliance with or exemption from the registration or qualification requirements of state or “blue sky” securities laws. See “The Arrangement – Issuance and Resale of Alamos Consideration Shares”. Richmont is a corporation existing under the laws of the Province of Québec. Alamos is a corporation existing under the laws of the Province of Ontario. The solicitation of proxies and the transactions contemplated in this Circular involve securities of two Canadian issuers and are being effected in accordance with Canadian corporate and securities laws. The proxy solicitation rules under the U.S. Exchange Act are not applicable to Richmont or to Alamos or this solicitation. Richmont Shareholders and Alamos Shareholders should be aware that disclosure requirements under Canadian securities laws may be different from requirements under U.S. Securities Laws. Information concerning Richmont and Alamos 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 mineral resource estimates included or incorporated by reference in this Circular have been prepared in accordance with NI 43-101 and the CIM definitions and classification system. NI 43-101 is a rule developed by the Canadian Securities Administrators which 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 SEC, and mineral reserve and mineral resource information contained or incorporated by reference in this Circular may not be comparable to similar information disclosed by U.S. companies. In particular, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the term “resource” does not equate to the term “reserve”. Under SEC 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. The SEC’s disclosure standards normally do not permit the inclusion of information concerning “measured mineral resources”, “indicated mineral resources”, “inferred mineral resources” or other descriptions of the amount of mineralization in mineral deposits that do not constitute “reserves” by U.S. standards in documents filed with the SEC. United States investors should also understand that “inferred mineral resources” have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence and as to their economic and legal feasibility. It cannot be assumed that all or any part of an “inferred mineral resource” will ever be upgraded to a higher category. Under Canadian securities laws, estimates of “inferred mineral resources” may not form the basis of feasibility or pre-feasibility studies except in rare cases. Disclosure of “contained ounces” in a mineral resource estimate is permitted disclosure under NI 43-101 provided that the grade or quality and the quantity of each category is stated; however, the SEC normally only permits issuers to report mineralization that does not constitute “reserves” by SEC standards as in place tonnage and grade without reference to unit measures. The requirements of NI 43-101 for identification of “reserves” are also not the same as those of the SEC, and reserves reported in compliance with NI 43-101 may not qualify as “reserves” under SEC standards. Accordingly, information contained in this Circular and the documents incorporated by reference herein containing descriptions of mineral deposits may not be comparable to similar information made public by U.S. companies subject to the reporting and disclosure requirements under the U.S. federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder. The financial statements included or incorporated by reference in this Circular have been prepared in accordance with IFRS, which differ from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles in certain material respects. Therefore, such financial statements may not be comparable to financial statements of U.S. companies. The enforcement by securityholders of civil liabilities under U.S. Securities Laws may be adversely affected by the fact that Richmont is a corporation existing and governed under the laws of the Province of Québec and by the fact

- 24 - that Alamos is a corporation existing and governed under the laws of the Province of Ontario, and that some or all of their respective directors and officers and the experts named in this Circular are not residents of the United States and that all or a substantial portion of their respective assets may be located outside the United States. As a result, it may be difficult or impossible for U.S. securityholders to effect service of process within the United States upon Richmont, Alamos, their respective officers and directors or the experts named herein, or to realize against them upon judgments of courts of the United States predicated upon civil liabilities under the federal securities laws of the United States or “blue sky” laws of any state within the United States. In addition, U.S. securityholders should not assume that the courts of Canada: (i) would enforce judgments of United States courts obtained in actions against such persons predicated upon civil liabilities under the federal securities laws of the United States or “blue sky” laws of any state within the Unites States; or (ii) would enforce, in original actions, liabilities against such persons predicated upon civil liabilities under the federal securities laws of the United States or “blue sky” laws of any state within the United States. STATEMENTS REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION This Circular, the pro forma consolidated financial statements of Alamos and the material incorporated by reference into this Circular contain certain forward-looking information and forward-looking statements, as defined in applicable securities laws (collectively referred to as “forward-looking statements”). Forward-looking statements are frequently characterized by words such as “will”, “plan”, “expect” or “does not expect”, “project”, “intend”, “believe”, “anticipate”, “forecast”, “schedule”, “estimate” and similar expressions, or statements that certain events, actions, results or conditions “could”, “may”, “might”, “will” or “would” occur, be taken or achieved . Forward-looking statements are not based on historical fact, but rather on current expectations and projections about future events, and are therefore subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors which could cause actual results, performance or achievements of Alamos or Richmont to differ materially from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Richmont and Alamos disclaim any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by applicable laws. The reader is cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are necessarily based upon a number of estimates and assumptions that, while considered reasonable by Richmont and Alamos as at the date of such statements, are inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies. The estimates and assumptions of Richmont and Alamos contained or incorporated by reference in the Circular which may prove to be incorrect, include, but are not limited to, the various assumptions set forth herein and incorporated by reference as well as: (i) that Richmont and Alamos will complete the Arrangement in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Arrangement Agreement; (ii) the accuracy of management’s assessment of the effects of the completion of the Arrangement; (iii) the integration of Richmont and Alamos as planned; (iv) the accuracy of Richmont’s and Alamos’ mineral reserve and mineral resource estimates; (v) the continuing operation of the Young-Davidson Mine, Mulatos Mine, Island Gold Mine and El Chanate Mine consistent with Richmont’s and Alamos’ current expectations; (vi) the permitting, development, operations and expansion of the Young-Davidson Mine, Mulatos Mine, Lynn Lake Project, Island Gold Mine and the Ağı Dağı, Kirazlı and Çamyurt Projects being consistent with Richmont’s and Alamos’ current expectations; (vii) the listing of the Alamos Consideration Shares on the TSX and NYSE, as applicable; (viii) there being no significant political, legal or tax developments or changes, whether generally or in respect of the mining industry specifically, in any jurisdiction in which Richmont or Alamos now, or following completion of the Arrangement, Alamos carries on business which are not consistent with Richmont’s or Alamos’ current expectations; (ix) there being no significant disruptions affecting Richmont’s or Alamos’ current or future operations, including Alamos’ operations following completion of the Arrangement, whether due to labour disruptions, supply disruptions, power disruptions, damage to equipment or otherwise; (x) that the exchange rate between the Canadian dollar, Mexican peso, Turkish lira and the U.S. dollar will be approximately consistent with current levels; (xi) certain price assumptions for gold; (xii) Richmont’s and Alamos’ expectations and assumptions with respect to future growth of Alamos including with respect to future growth in gold production; (xiii) prices for natural gas, fuel oil, electricity and other key supplies remaining consistent with current levels; (xiv) production forecasts meeting expectations; (xv) the ability to achieve the results of the Expansion Case PEA; (xvi) labour and materials costs increasing on a basis consistent with Richmont’s and Alamos’ current expectations; and (xvii) the trading price of the Alamos Shares and the Richmont Shares.

- 25 - In addition to those risk factors described under the heading “Risk Factors”, known and unknown factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements. Factors include, but are not limited to:  significant increases or decreases in the prices of gold;  changes in interest rates and currency exchange rates;  timing and amount of production;  unanticipated grade changes;  unanticipated recovery rates or production problems;  changes in mining, processing and overhead costs;  changes in metallurgy and processing technology;  access and availability of materials, equipment, supplies, labour and supervision, power and water;  determination of mineral reserves and mineral resources (including the assumptions underlying the conversion of mineral resources to mineral reserves);  availability of drill rigs;  changes in operating parameters;  costs and timing of development of new mineral reserves;  results of current and future feasibility studies;  joint venture relationships;  political or economic instability, either globally or in the countries in which Richmont and/or Alamos operate;  Alamos’ ability to successfully integrate acquisitions;  changes in governmental policies or laws;  wars or armed conflicts, either globally or in the countries in which Richmont and/or Alamos operate;  local and community impacts and issues;  changes in aboriginal title or rights to Richmont’s or Alamos’ Canadian properties or Alamos’ Mexican properties;  timing and receipt of government and other approvals and consents;  accidents and labour disputes;  environmental costs and risk;  competitive factors, including competition for property acquisitions;  adverse weather conditions and damage arising as a result; and  availability of capital at reasonable rates or at all. In addition, there are risks and hazards associated with the business of gold exploration, development and mining, including, but not limited to, environmental hazards, industrial accidents, unusual or unexpected formations, pressures, cave-ins, flooding and gold bullion losses (and the risk of inadequate insurance, or inability to obtain insurance, to cover these risks). Many of these uncertainties and contingencies can affect Richmont’s, and Alamos’, actual results and could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in any forward- looking statements made by, or on behalf of, Richmont or Alamos.

- 26 - There can be no assurance that forward-looking statements will prove to be accurate, as actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements. Forward-looking statements are provided for the purpose of providing information about management’s expectations and plans relating to the future. All of the forward-looking statements made in this Circular are qualified by these cautionary statements and those made in each of Alamos’ and Richmont’s filings with Canadian and U.S. securities regulatory authorities expressly incorporated by reference into this Circular. These factors are not intended to represent a complete list of the factors that could affect Alamos or Richmont. Accordingly, undue reliance should not be placed on forward-looking statements. Richmont and Alamos undertake no obligation to update publicly or otherwise revise any forward- looking statements or the foregoing list of assumptions or factors, whether as a result of new information or future events or otherwise, except as may be required in connection with a material change in the information disclosed in this Circular or as otherwise required by applicable laws. NON-IFRS MEASURES Cash costs, all-in sustaining costs, and all-in costs are non-IFRS performance measures referred to in this Circular, and may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Richmont and Alamos believe that, in addition to conventional measures prepared in accordance with IFRS, Richmont, Alamos and certain investors use this information to evaluate its performance. Accordingly, it is intended to provide additional information and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. “Cash costs” is a common performance measure in the gold mining industry, but does not have any standardized definition. Richmont reports cash cost per ounce based on ounces sold. Cash costs include mine site operating costs, administration, royalties and by-product credits but are exclusive of depreciation, accretion expense, interest on capital leases, capital expenditures, and exploration and project evaluation costs. All-in sustaining costs or “AISC” is an extension of the existing “cash costs” metrics and incorporates costs related to sustaining production. Richmont and Alamos believe that, although relevant, the cash costs measure does not capture the sustaining expenditures incurred, and therefore, may not present a complete picture of its operating performance or its ability to generate free cash flows from its operations. AISC includes cost of sales, excluding depreciation, and includes by-product credits, sustaining capital expenditures, sustaining exploration and project evaluation costs, corporate general and administrative costs, and environmental rehabilitation accretion and depreciation. Readers should refer to the reconciliation between the non-IFRS measures presented in this Circular, as applicable, to the most directly comparable IFRS measures in each of Alamos’ and Richmont’s management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations as at and for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2017 and June 30, 2016, respectively, which are incorporated by reference in this Circular. REPORTING CURRENCIES AND ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES Unless otherwise indicated, all references to “$”, “US$” or “U.S. dollars” in this Circular refer to United States dollars and all references to “C$” in this Circular refer to Canadian dollars. Except as otherwise indicated in this Circular, all financial statements and financial data derived therefrom included or incorporated by reference in this Circular pertaining to Richmont have been prepared and presented in Canadian dollars in accordance with IFRS and all financial statements and financial data derived therefrom included or incorporated by reference in this Circular pertaining to Alamos, have been prepared and presented in U.S. dollars in accordance with IFRS. The unaudited pro forma financial statements of Alamos, have been prepared based on financial statements prepared and presented in U.S. dollars in accordance with IFRS.

The proxy must be in writing and signed by the Richmont Shareholder or by the Richmont Shareholder’s attorney, duly authorized in writing or, if the Richmont Shareholder is a corporation, the written notice must be executed by its duly authorized officer or attorney. A proxy will only be valid if it is duly completed, signed, dated and received at the office of Richmont’s transfer agent, Computershare Trust Company of Canada, Proxy Dept., 100 University Avenue, 8th Floor, Toronto, Ontario M5J 2Y1, facsimile: 1-866-249-7775, not less than 48 hours (excluding Saturdays, Sundays and holidays) before the commencement of the Richmont Meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof.

The written notice of revocation may be executed by the Richmont Shareholder or by an attorney who has the Richmont Shareholder’s written authorization.

Notice to Non-Registered (Beneficial) Richmont Shareholders The information set forth in this section is of significant importance to many Richmont Shareholders, as a substantial number of Richmont Shareholders do not hold Richmont Shares in their own name. Beneficial Richmont Shareholders should note that only proxies deposited by Richmont Shareholders whose names appear on the records of Richmont as Registered Richmont Shareholders can be recognized and acted upon at the Richmont Meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof. If Richmont Shares are listed in an account statement provided to a Richmont Shareholder by a broker or other intermediary, then in almost all cases, those Richmont Shares will not be registered in the Richmont Shareholder’s name on Richmont’s Share register. Those Richmont Shares will more likely be registered under the name of the Richmont Shareholder’s intermediary or an agent of that intermediary. In Canada, the vast majority of those Richmont Shares are registered under the name of “CDS & Co.” (the registration name of CDS Clearing and Depository Services Inc., which acts as nominee for many Canadian brokerage firms). Richmont Shares held by intermediaries can only be voted (for or against resolutions) upon the instructions of the beneficial Richmont Shareholders. Without specific instructions, the intermediaries are prohibited from voting Richmont Shares for their clients. Richmont does not know for whose benefit the Richmont Shares registered in the name of CDS & Co., or another intermediary, are held. Applicable regulatory policy requires intermediaries to seek voting instructions from beneficial shareholders in advance of shareholder meetings. Every intermediary has its own mailing procedures and provides its own return instructions, which should be carefully followed by beneficial Richmont Shareholders in order to ensure that their Richmont Shares are voted at the Richmont Meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof. Often, the form of proxy supplied to a beneficial Richmont Shareholder by its intermediary is identical to the form of proxy provided to Registered Richmont Shareholders; however, its purpose is limited to instructing the Registered Richmont Shareholder on how to vote on behalf of the beneficial Richmont Shareholder. The majority of intermediaries now delegate responsibility for obtaining instructions from clients to Broadridge. Broadridge typically mails a scannable voting instruction form in lieu of the form of proxy. If you are a beneficial Richmont Shareholder – holding your Richmont Shares through a bank, broker, trust company, or custodian - you are requested to complete and return the voting instruction form to Broadridge by mail or facsimile. Alternatively, beneficial Richmont Shareholders can call the toll-free telephone number printed on their voting instruction form or access Broadridge’s dedicated voting website at www.proxyvote.com and enter

- 30 - their 16-digit control number to deliver their voting instructions. Broadridge tabulates the results of all instructions received and provides appropriate instructions respecting the voting of Richmont Shares to be represented at the Richmont Meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof. Richmont may utilize the Broadridge QuickVote™ service to assist non-registered Richmont Shareholders that are U.S. “non-objecting beneficial owners” with voting their Richmont Shares over the telephone. Laurel Hill may contact U.S. “non- objecting beneficial owners” of Richmont Shares to assist in conveniently voting their Richmont Shares directly over the phone. A beneficial Richmont Shareholder receiving a voting instruction form cannot use that voting instruction form to vote Richmont Shares directly at the Richmont Meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof. Although a beneficial Richmont Shareholder may not be recognized directly at the Richmont Meeting for the purposes of voting Richmont Shares registered in the name of an intermediary, a beneficial Richmont Shareholder may obtain a legal proxy from such intermediary, or Broadridge as the agent for that intermediary, to attend the Richmont Meeting as a proxyholder for the Registered Richmont Shareholder and vote their Richmont Shares in that capacity. To do this, a beneficial Richmont Shareholder must enter their own name in the blank space on the voting instruction form (or in the case of a U.S.-based holder, check the box) indicating that they or their appointee are going to attend and vote at the Richmont Meeting and return the voting instruction form to their intermediary or Broadridge in accordance with the instructions provided well in advance of the Richmont Meeting. Beneficial Richmont Shareholders will need to bring the legal proxy to the Richmont Meeting in order to vote their Richmont Shares. If you have questions, you may contact the joint proxy solicitation agent, Laurel Hill, by: (i) telephone, toll- free in North America at 1-877-452-7184 or at 416-304-0211 outside of North America; (ii) facsimile to 416- 646-2415; (iii) mail to 70 University Avenue, Suite 1440, Toronto, Ontario M5J 2M4; or (iv) email to assistance@laurelhill.com. Voting Securities and Principal Holders of Voting Securities Richmont is authorized to issue an unlimited number of Richmont Shares, of which 63,817,131 Richmont Shares were issued and outstanding as of October 17, 2017. Richmont Shareholders are entitled to receive notice of, and to attend and vote at, all meetings of the Richmont Shareholders, and each Richmont Share confers the right to one vote in person or by proxy at all meetings of the Richmont Shareholders. Richmont Shareholders at 5:00 p.m. (Eastern time) on the Record Date are entitled to vote or to have their Richmont Shares voted at the Richmont Meeting. As at October 17, 2017, to the knowledge of the directors and executive officers of Richmont, there is no person or company that beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, or exercises control or direction over, voting securities of Richmont carrying 10% or more of the voting rights attached to any class of voting securities of Richmont. Business of the Richmont Meeting As set out in the Richmont Notice of Special Meeting, at the Richmont Meeting, Richmont Shareholders will be asked to consider and vote on the Richmont Arrangement Resolution. In order for the Arrangement to be completed, Richmont Shareholders must approve the Richmont Arrangement Resolution. Based on the Richmont and Alamos securities outstanding on September 8, 2017, following completion of the Arrangement and assuming all Richmont Options are exchanged for Alamos Replacement Options and all Richmont Retained Employee RSUs are exchanged for Alamos Replacement RSUs, on a pro forma basis, former Richmont Shareholders immediately prior to the Effective Time will hold approximately 23% of the Alamos Shares issued and outstanding immediately after the Effective Time, while existing Alamos Shareholders immediately prior to the Effective Time will hold approximately 77% of the Alamos Shares issued and outstanding immediately after the Effective Time. The Arrangement Agreement is the result of arm’s length negotiations between Representatives of Alamos and Richmont and their respective legal and financial advisors. The directors and officers of Richmont (being insiders of

- 31 - Richmont) are participating in the Arrangement. See “Interest of Certain Persons in Matters to be Acted Upon - Richmont Change of Control Payments”. In order to become effective the Arrangement will require, among other things, the approval of the Richmont Arrangement Resolution. The Richmont Arrangement Resolution will require: (i) the affirmative vote of at least 66⅔% of the votes cast by Richmont Shareholders, voting as a single class, who vote in person or by proxy at the Richmont Meeting; and (ii) the affirmative vote of at least a simple majority of the votes cast by Richmont Shareholders, voting as a single class, who vote in person or by proxy at the Richmont Meeting, after excluding the Richmont Excluded Votes. Record Date The Richmont Board has passed a resolution to fix 5:00 p.m. (Eastern time) on October 17, 2017 as the Record Date for the determination of the Registered Richmont Shareholders that will be entitled to notice of the Richmont Meeting, and any adjournment or postponement of the Richmont Meeting, and that will be entitled to vote at the Richmont Meeting. The Record Date will not change in respect of any adjournment or postponement of the Richmont Meeting. Quorum Under Richmont’s by-laws, the quorum at any shareholders meeting is two shareholders present in person who hold or represent by proxy not less than 10% of the outstanding Richmont Shares and who are entitled to vote at the Richmont Meeting.

- 32 - THE ALAMOS MEETING The Alamos Meeting will be held on November 16, 2017, subject to any adjournment or postponement thereof, at 10:30 a.m. (Eastern time) at the offices of Fasken Martineau DuMoulin LLP, 333 Bay Street, 24th Floor, Toronto, Ontario M5H 2T6 for the purposes set forth in the accompanying Alamos Notice of Special Meeting. The directors and officers of Alamos who own, or exercise control or direction over, Alamos Shares or securities convertible into, or exchangeable for, Alamos Shares have agreed to vote their Alamos Shares in favour of the Alamos Share Issuance Resolution pursuant to the Alamos Lock-Up Agreements. Appointment and Revocation of Proxies The Alamos named proxy holders are Paul J. Murphy, or failing him, John A. McCluskey, or failing him, James Porter, or failing him Greg Fisher. An Alamos Shareholder who wishes to appoint another person or entity (who need not be an Alamos Shareholder) to represent the Alamos Shareholder at the Alamos Meeting may either insert the person’s or entity’s name in the blank space provided in the form of proxy or complete another proper form of proxy. The proxy must be in writing and signed by the Alamos Shareholder or by the Alamos Shareholder’s attorney, duly authorized in writing or, if the Alamos Shareholder is a corporation, the written notice must be executed by its duly authorized officer or attorney. A proxy will only be valid if it is duly completed, signed, dated and received at the office of the transfer agent, Computershare Trust Company of Canada, Proxy Dept., 100 University Avenue, 8th Floor, Toronto, Ontario M5J 2Y1, facsimile: 1-866-249-7775, not less than 48 hours (excluding Saturdays, Sundays and holidays) before the commencement of the Alamos Meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof. An Alamos Shareholder who has voted by proxy may revoke it any time prior to the Alamos Meeting. To revoke a proxy, a Registered Alamos Shareholder may deliver a written notice to Alamos’ head office at Brookfield Place, 181 Bay Street, Suite 3910, Toronto, Ontario M5J 2T3, facsimile: 416-368-2934, Attention: Nils Engelstad, or at the offices of Computershare Trust Company of Canada, 100 University Avenue, 8th Floor, Toronto, Ontario M5J 2Y1, at any time up to 10:30 a.m. (Eastern time) on the last business day before the Alamos Meeting or any adjournment or postponement of the Alamos Meeting.

In order to become effective the Arrangement will require, among other things, the approval of the Alamos Share Issuance Resolution. The Alamos Share Issuance Resolution will require the affirmative vote of at least a simple majority of the votes cast by Alamos Shareholders, voting as a single class, who vote in person or by proxy at the Alamos Meeting. Record Date The Alamos Board has passed a resolution to fix 5:00 p.m. (Eastern time) on October 17, 2017 as the Record Date for the determination of the Registered Alamos Shareholders that will be entitled to notice of the Alamos Meeting, and any adjournment or postponement thereof, and that will be entitled to vote at the Alamos Meeting. The Record Date will not change in respect of any adjournment or postponement of the Alamos Meeting. Quorum A quorum at the Alamos Meeting consists of two persons who are, or who represent by proxy, Alamos Shareholders, who in the aggregate, hold at least 25% of the outstanding Alamos Shares entitled to be voted at the Alamos Meeting.

- 36 - THE ARRANGEMENT Background to the Arrangement The Arrangement Agreement is the result of arm’s length negotiations among Representatives of Richmont and Alamos and their respective legal and financial advisors. The following is a summary of the material meetings, negotiations, discussions, events and actions involving the parties leading up to the announcement of the Arrangement. Over the past several years, it has been a core part of Alamos’ strategy to seek opportunities to maximize shareholder value through strategic acquisitions which would diversify its production base while adding a strong production growth profile in politically stable operating environments. In doing so, Alamos has sought to build upon its established production base in Mexico and development projects in Turkey. Its business combination with AuRico Gold Inc. in 2015 added the Young-Davidson Mine in northern Ontario and the El Chanate Mine in Sonora, Mexico to Alamos’ production profile. Alamos has been evaluating strategic opportunities with respect to companies similar to Richmont for a period of several years. Over the past few years, Richmont’s senior management team’s primary focus was to position its cornerstone Island Gold Mine as a leading, low-cost operation in Canada with an attractive growth profile. Concurrently, Richmont has, from time to time, considered strategic opportunities including acquisitions and other business combinations in order to diversify its production base and increase shareholder value. As part of this strategic initiative, Richmont has had discussions with several industry participants interested in exploring the possibility of a business combination transaction involving an acquisition of Richmont. Prior to June 2017, none of these discussions resulted in any extensive negotiations. Richmont’s primary focus during this period was on successfully enhancing both mineral reserves and resources and operational performance at its Island Gold Mine in northern Ontario, including work on a preliminary economic assessment, commenced in early 2016, for an expansion of underground mine and mill productivity to 1,100 tonnes per day (the “Expansion Case PEA”). In early February 2017, the company also began giving consideration to strategic alternatives for its Beaufor Mine, Camflo Mill and other Québec-based assets that could create additional shareholder value. On May 29, 2017, Richmont announced positive results from the Expansion Case PEA. In light of this announcement, and recognizing the lack of available acquisition opportunities which would enhance shareholder value, the Richmont Board suggested that management re-engage with certain of the parties with which Richmont had previously explored the possibility of a business combination, to ascertain their interest in acquiring Richmont. On June 5, 2017, Renaud Adams, the President and Chief Executive Officer and a director of Richmont, telephoned John McCluskey, the President and Chief Executive Officer and a director of Alamos, to inquire whether Alamos had an interest in receiving confidential information about Richmont as part of this exercise. On or about that date, Mr. Adams had similar discussions with a number of other strategic third parties regarding their interest in receiving confidential information about Richmont for the same purpose. On June 9, 2017, Richmont and Alamos entered into a one-way confidentiality agreement under which Alamos was provided access to non-public information regarding Richmont in an electronic data room. Over the course of the next few weeks, Richmont entered into one-way confidentiality agreements with certain other strategic parties and provided them with access to its data room. On June 28, 2017, certain members of senior and operational management of Richmont provided Alamos management with an overview of Richmont’s business and operations. On June 29, 2017, certain members of senior and operational management of Alamos who had been present at the meeting with Richmont management the previous day conducted a site visit to the Island Gold Mine. On August 2, 2017, the Alamos Board received an update from management regarding the discussions with Richmont and the site visit to the Island Gold Mine. On August 17, 2017, Mr. Adams and Mr. McCluskey met in person to discuss Alamos’ review to date. At that meeting, Mr. McCluskey reconfirmed Alamos’ interest in exploring a business combination transaction with Richmont.

- 37 - On August 18, 2017, the Richmont Board met to receive an update on the process of discussions with strategic parties and to discuss a strategy for managing the process going forward. The Richmont Board resolved to approve the appointment of Macquarie Capital and Maxit Capital as co-financial advisors to Richmont and the Richmont Board. Maxit Capital was formally engaged later the same day, and Macquarie Capital was formally engaged a week later on August 25, 2017. On August 21, 2017 Alamos contacted BMO Capital Markets regarding an advisory mandate in connection with the proposed transaction. On August 24, 2017, the Alamos Board met to receive an update from management on the progress of discussions with Richmont. The Alamos Board received a presentation from Alamos’ management, along with preliminary perspectives on a potential acquisition of Richmont from BMO Capital Markets. Following receipt of this analysis, the Board deliberated as to the merits of a potential transaction and ultimately concluded to approve management’s recommendation to provide Richmont with a non-binding letter of intent. Following the Alamos Board meeting, the terms of BMO Capital Markets’ engagement were finalized. Alamos provided Richmont with a non-binding proposal to acquire all of the outstanding Richmont Shares. Following receipt of that offer, Mr. Adams had discussions with Richmont’s legal and financial advisors and each of the other directors of Richmont to solicit their views as to the terms of the proposal. The consensus among the members of the Richmont Board and Richmont’s financial advisors was that the initial Alamos proposal did not offer a sufficiently high premium to the prevailing Richmont share price to warrant entering into any detailed discussions or negotiations with Alamos at such time, but that management of Richmont should continue to pursue discussions with Alamos with a view to Alamos potentially offering an enhancement to its initial proposal. On August 25, 2017, after discussions with Mr. Adams, representatives of Macquarie Capital and Maxit Capital met in person with Mr. McCluskey and representatives of BMO Capital Markets, Alamos’ financial advisor, to provide Richmont’s views on Alamos’ initial proposal. Following that meeting, Alamos provided Richmont with a revised non-binding proposal that (i) increased the exchange ratio to 1.385 Alamos shares for each Richmont share, representing an implied price of C$13.50 per Richmont Share based on Alamos’ closing share price on the TSX on August 24, 2017; and (ii) would decrease the duration of the period under which Richmont would negotiate exclusively with Alamos with respect to any strategic transaction. On August 26, 2017, the Richmont Board met to receive the preliminary views of Richmont’s financial advisors and its legal counsel, Fasken Martineau DuMoulin LLP, on the terms of the revised Alamos proposal. After requesting a formal presentation from each of Macquarie Capital and Maxit Capital on the terms of the proposal, the meeting was adjourned. On August 28, 2017, the Richmont Board resumed their previous meeting and received a detailed presentation from each of Macquarie Capital and Maxit Capital with respect to, among other things, their respective views on the value of the consideration being offered under the revised Alamos proposal, various transaction metrics applicable to Richmont and pro forma considerations. At that same meeting, the Richmont Board resolved to form a special committee of independent directors of Richmont (the “Richmont Special Committee”), comprising the four members of the Richmont Board other than Mr. Adams. Mr. René Marion, the Chairman of the Richmont Board, was appointed the chair of the Richmont Special Committee. The Richmont Special Committee’s mandate was to, among other things, receive details of, consider and evaluate any proposal concerning a potential business combination transaction and to consider and advise the Richmont Board as to whether any potential transaction was in the best interests of Richmont. After receiving legal and financial advice, the Richmont Board authorized Mr. Adams to execute a non-binding letter of intent with Alamos reflecting its proposal in substantially the form presented to them in advance of the meeting. Following the meeting of the Richmont Board, Mr. Adams met with Mr. McCluskey to further discuss the terms of that proposal. At that meeting, Alamos and Richmont entered into a non-binding letter of intent, which among other things granted Alamos the exclusive right to negotiate with Richmont only until September 13, 2017. On August 29, 2017, Alamos and Richmont entered into a one-way confidentiality agreement under which Richmont was provided with access to non-public information regarding Alamos in an electronic data room. Members of Richmont and Alamos senior management also met to discuss the contents of the draft Arrangement Agreement being prepared by Alamos and its advisors.

- 38 - On August 30, 2017, Alamos provided Richmont with an initial draft of the Arrangement Agreement. Between August 30 and September 11, 2017, Alamos and Richmont and their respective legal and financial advisors engaged in due diligence and discussions and negotiations regarding the terms of the Arrangement Agreement. On September 5, 2017, Mr. Adams conducted a site visit to Alamos’ Mulatos Mine and La Yaqui mine, located in Sonora State, Mexico. In the previous year, certain members of management of Richmont had already conducted a site visit to Alamos’ Young-Davidson Mine, located in Northern Ontario. Further, several members of senior management of Richmont were previously members of senior management of AuRico Gold Inc., the former owner and operator of the Young-Davidson Mine. On September 7, 2017, Aoife McGrath, the Vice-President of Exploration of Alamos conducted an additional site visit to the Island Gold Mine. On the morning of September 8, 2017, the Richmont Special Committee met by telephone with Richmont’s legal and financial advisors to receive an update on the status of the transaction negotiations and to discuss certain outstanding issues in relation to the Arrangement Agreement. Later in the afternoon, the Richmont Special Committee met again by telephone with legal counsel to discuss certain additional issues relating to the Arrangement. Also on the afternoon of September 8, 2017, Richmont’s management and its financial advisors participated in a due diligence conference call with members of Alamos’ management, where Richmont was able to pose questions of Alamos’ management with respect to Alamos’ business. On September 10, 2017, the Richmont Special Committee met to consider the final draft of the Arrangement Agreement. During that meeting, following a review of the process and methodologies considered by each of Macquarie Capital and Maxit Capital in evaluating the financial terms of the Arrangement, the Richmont Special Committee received an oral opinion from each of Macquarie Capital and Maxit Capital that, as of the date of each such opinion, the consideration to be received by Richmont Shareholders under the Arrangement is fair, from a financial point of view, to the Richmont Shareholders. After careful deliberation, the Richmont Special Committee determined that the Arrangement is in the best interests of Richmont and is fair to Richmont Shareholders and unanimously passed a resolution recommending that the Richmont Board approve the Arrangement and recommend to the Richmont Shareholders that they vote in favour of the Arrangement at the Richmont Meeting. Immediately following that meeting, a meeting of the Richmont Board was convened and, after due consideration of a number of factors including, among other things, the recommendation of the Richmont Special Committee and the fairness opinions received from Macquarie Capital and Maxit Capital, the Richmont Board determined that the Arrangement is in the best interests of Richmont and is fair to Richmont Shareholders and unanimously passed a resolution approving the Arrangement, authorizing Richmont to enter into the Arrangement Agreement and recommending that Richmont Shareholders vote in favour of the Arrangement. On September 10, 2017, the Alamos Board met to consider the final draft of the Arrangement Agreement. During that meeting, following a review of the process and methodologies considered by BMO Capital Markets in evaluating the financial terms of the Arrangement, the Alamos Board received an oral opinion from BMO Capital Markets that, as of the date of such opinion and subject to the scope of review, assumptions and limitations contained therein, the consideration to be paid by Alamos Shareholders under the Arrangement is fair, from a financial point of view, to Alamos. After careful deliberation, the Alamos Board determined that the Arrangement is in the best interests of Alamos and is fair to Alamos Shareholders and unanimously passed a resolution approving the Arrangement, authorizing Alamos to enter into the Arrangement Agreement and recommending that Alamos Shareholders vote in favour of the Arrangement. Following the foregoing meetings of the Richmont Board and Alamos Board, the Arrangement Agreement and certain ancillary documents were finalized. The Arrangement Agreement and the Richmont Lock-Up Agreements and Alamos Lock-Up Agreements were then executed, and the terms of the transaction were publicly announced in a joint news release by Alamos and Richmont on September 11, 2017 prior to the opening of trading on the TSX and NYSE. Also on September 11, 2017, Richmont announced that it had entered into a definitive agreement with Monarques regarding the sale of Richmont’s Beaufor Mine, Camflo Mill and Wasamac Development Project as well as other mineral claims, mining leases and mining concessions located in the Province of Québec.

- 39 - Recommendation of the Richmont Special Committee After careful consideration of the terms of the Arrangement and following consultation with its legal and financial advisors and receipt of the Richmont Fairness Opinions, the Richmont Special Committee unanimously determined that the Arrangement is in the best interests of Richmont and is fair to the Richmont Shareholders, and recommended that the Richmont Board (i) approve the Arrangement and (ii) recommend that Richmont Shareholders VOTE IN FAVOUR of the Richmont Arrangement Resolution. Recommendation of the Richmont Board After careful consideration, including consultation with its legal and financial advisors, the unanimous recommendation of the Richmont Special Committee, the receipt of the Richmont Fairness Opinions and the other factors set out below under the heading “The Arrangement – Recommendation of the Richmont Board – Reasons for the Recommendation of the Richmont Board”, the Richmont Board determined that the Arrangement is in the best interests of Richmont and is fair to the Richmont Shareholders, and unanimously passed a resolution approving the Arrangement, authorizing the entering into of the Arrangement Agreement and recommending that Richmont Shareholders VOTE IN FAVOUR of the Richmont Arrangement Resolution. Reasons for the Recommendation of the Richmont Board In the course of its evaluation of the Arrangement, the Richmont Board considered a number of factors, including those listed below, with the benefit of input from the Richmont Special Committee and advice from Richmont’s senior management, Macquarie Capital and Maxit Capital, and Richmont’s legal counsel. The following is a summary of the principal reasons for the unanimous recommendation of the Richmont Board that Richmont Shareholders VOTE IN FAVOUR of the Richmont Arrangement Resolution:  Immediate and significant premium to Richmont Shareholders. The Exchange Ratio implies consideration of C$14.20 per Richmont Share, based on the closing price of Alamos Shares on the TSX on September 8, 2017, the last trading day prior to the announcement of the Arrangement. This represents a premium of approximately 22% to the closing price of the Richmont Shares on the TSX on September 8, 2017 and a premium of approximately 32% based on the volume-weighted average prices of the Richmont Shares and the Alamos Shares on the TSX for the 20 trading days ended September 8, 2017.  Meaningful ownership in a diversified high-quality asset portfolio. Following completion of the Arrangement, and assuming all Richmont Options are exchanged for Alamos Replacement Options and all Richmont Retained Employee RSUs are exchanged for Alamos Replacement RSUs, Richmont Shareholders will own approximately 23% of the Alamos Shares. This provides Richmont Shareholders with meaningful ownership in Alamos’ high-quality portfolio of assets, including diversified North American gold production and peer-leading growth potential, and diversifies Richmont’s single mine risk profile.  Continued exposure to the Island Gold Mine. As a result of their pro forma ownership interest in Alamos, Richmont Shareholders will have continued exposure to the Island Gold Mine’s significant operating and exploration upside potential.  Significant revaluation potential. Alamos post-Arrangement provides significant revaluation potential as a diversified intermediate producer with established growth potential approaching one million ounces per year.  Improved trading liquidity and capital markets exposure. Alamos post-Arrangement will have a market capitalization of approximately $4.0 billion (on a non-diluted basis, based on the closing prices of Richmont Shares and Alamos Shares on the TSX on September 8, 2017, the last trading day prior to the announcement of the Arrangement). The Richmont Board believes that this will significantly improve trading liquidity and capital markets exposure.  Participation in Alamos’ semi-annual dividend. Richmont Shareholders are expected to benefit from Alamos’ historic practice of returning value to its shareholders in the form of a semi-annual dividend.

- 40 -  Fairness opinions. The Richmont Board has received fairness opinions from each of Macquarie Capital and Maxit Capital to the effect that, as at September 10, 2017, and subject to the assumptions, limitations and qualifications set out therein, the consideration to be received by Richmont Shareholders pursuant to the Arrangement is fair, from a financial point of view, to Richmont Shareholders. See “The Arrangement – Richmont Fairness Opinions”.  Support of Richmont directors and senior officers. All of the directors and senior officers of Richmont have entered into the Richmont Lock-Up Agreements pursuant to which they have agreed, among other things, to vote their Richmont Shares in favour of the Richmont Arrangement Resolution. As of the date of the Arrangement Agreement, the Richmont Locked-Up Shareholders collectively beneficially owned or exercised control or direction over an aggregate of approximately 2,461,161 Richmont Shares or other securities of Richmont, representing approximately 3.74% of the Richmont Shares on a fully diluted basis.  Tax-deferred rollover for Canadian Richmont Shareholders. In general, the exchange of Richmont Shares for Alamos Shares under the Arrangement will not give rise to a capital gain (or capital loss) to a Richmont Shareholder who is resident in Canada and holds its Richmont Shares as capital property for purposes of the Tax Act unless such Richmont Shareholder chooses to report such capital gain (or capital loss) in the Richmont Shareholder’s income tax return for the year in which the exchange occurs. See “Certain Canadian Federal Income Tax Considerations for Richmont Shareholders”.  Tax-deferred rollover for U.S. Richmont Shareholders. For U.S. federal income tax purposes, Alamos and Richmont intend to treat the Arrangement as a tax-deferred “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the U.S. Tax Code. If the Arrangement so qualifies, then, subject to the limitations and qualifications described in “Certain United States Federal Income Tax Considerations for Richmont Shareholders”, a U.S. Holder generally will recognize no gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes upon the exchange of Richmont Shares for Alamos Shares pursuant to the Arrangement, except to the extent of any cash received in lieu of a fractional Alamos Share.  Other factors. The Richmont Board also considered the Arrangement with reference to the financial condition and results of operations of Richmont, as well as its prospects, strategic alternatives and competitive position, including the risks involved in achieving those prospects and pursuing those alternatives in light of current market conditions and Richmont’s financial position. The Richmont Board also considered the risks relating to the Arrangement, including those matters described under the heading “Risk Factors”. The Richmont Board believes that, overall, the anticipated benefits of the Arrangement to Richmont outweigh these risks. In making its determinations and recommendations, the Richmont Board also observed that a number of procedural safeguards were in place and are present to permit the Richmont Board to represent the interests of Richmont, the Richmont Shareholders and Richmont’s other stakeholders. These procedural safeguards include, among others:  Role of independent directors. The Arrangement was reviewed and evaluated by the Richmont Special Committee, comprised of members of the Richmont Board who are independent of Alamos and of management of Richmont. Following consultation with its legal and financial advisors and receipt of the Richmont Fairness Opinions, the Richmont Special Committee unanimously determined that the Arrangement is in the best interests of Richmont and is fair to the Richmont Shareholders and unanimously recommended that the Richmont Board (i) approve the Arrangement Agreement and (ii) recommend that Richmont Shareholders vote in favour of the Richmont Arrangement Resolution.  Ability to respond to superior proposals. Notwithstanding the limitations contained in the Arrangement Agreement on Richmont’s ability to solicit interest from third parties, the Arrangement Agreement allows Richmont to engage in discussions or negotiations regarding any unsolicited Acquisition Proposal received prior to the Richmont Meeting that constitutes or that may reasonably be expected to lead to a Richmont Superior Proposal.

- 41 -  Reasonable Termination Payment. The amount of the Alamos Termination Payment, being C$35 million and payable under certain circumstances described under “Summary of Material Agreements – The Arrangement Agreement – Termination – Termination Payments”, is reasonable.  Shareholder approval. The Arrangement must be approved by (i) the affirmative vote of at least 66⅔% of the votes cast on the Richmont Arrangement Resolution by Richmont Shareholders, and (ii) the affirmative vote of at least a simple majority of the votes cast by Richmont Shareholders, who vote in person or by proxy at the Richmont Meeting, excluding the votes cast by interested parties (as defined in MI 61-101), related parties (as defined in MI 61-101) of such interested parties and joint actors (as defined in MI 61- 101) of such interested parties or related parties.  Court and regulatory approvals. The Arrangement must be approved by the Court, which will consider, among other things, the substantive and procedural fairness and the reasonableness of the Arrangement to Richmont Shareholders. The Arrangement Agreement also contains a condition precedent that all regulatory approvals shall be obtained prior to closing.  Dissent Rights. The availability of rights of dissent to registered Richmont Shareholders with respect to the Arrangement. See “The Arrangement – Dissent Rights for Richmont Shareholders”. The foregoing summary of the information and factors considered by the Richmont Board is not intended to be exhaustive, but includes the material information and factors considered by the Richmont Board in its consideration of the Arrangement. In view of the variety of factors and the amount of information considered in connection with the Richmont Board’s evaluation of the Arrangement, the Richmont Board did not find it practicable to and did not quantify or otherwise attempt to assign any relative weight to each of the specific factors considered in reaching its conclusions and recommendations. In addition, individual members of the Richmont Board may have assigned different weights to different factors in reaching their own conclusion as to the fairness of the Arrangement. Richmont Fairness Opinions Richmont entered into separate engagement letters with each of Macquarie Capital and Maxit Capital pursuant to which, among other things, each of them agreed to provide Richmont with an opinion as to the fairness of the consideration to be received under the Arrangement, from a financial point of view, to Richmont Shareholders. At a meeting of the Richmont Special Committee and the Richmont Board held on September 10, 2017, each of Macquarie Capital and Maxit Capital provided both the Richmont Special Committee and the Richmont Board with an oral opinion, subsequently confirmed in writing to the Richmont Board, to the effect that the consideration to be received under the Arrangement is fair from a financial point of view to the Richmont Shareholders. The full text of the Richmont Fairness Opinions, which set forth, among other things, the credentials and independence of Macquarie Capital and Maxit Capital, as applicable, the assumptions made, information reviewed and matters considered, and the limitations and qualifications on the review undertaken by Macquarie Capital and Maxit Capital in connection with their respective opinions, are attached to this Circular as Appendix F and Appendix G. The Richmont Fairness Opinions are not intended to be, and do not constitute, a recommendation to any Richmont Shareholder as to how to vote or act at the Richmont Meeting. The Richmont Fairness Opinions are among a number of factors taken into consideration by the Richmont Board in considering the Arrangement. This summary of the Richmont Fairness Opinions is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Richmont Fairness Opinions, and Richmont Shareholders are urged to read the Richmont Fairness Opinions in their entirety. The Richmont Fairness Opinions were rendered on the basis of securities markets, economic and general business and financial conditions prevailing as at the respective dates of the Richmont Fairness Opinions and the conditions and prospects, financial and otherwise, of Richmont and Alamos, as applicable, as they were reflected in the information and documents reviewed by Macquarie Capital and Maxit Capital, respectively, and as they were represented to Macquarie Capital and Maxit Capital, respectively. Subsequent developments may affect the Richmont Fairness Opinions. Each of Macquarie Capital and Maxit Capital has disclaimed any undertaking or obligation to amend, update or reaffirm its respective Richmont Fairness Opinion or to advise any person of any change in any fact or matter affecting the Richmont Fairness Opinion which may come or be brought to the attention of Macquarie Capital and Maxit Capital after the date of its Richmont Fairness Opinion.

- 42 - Each of Macquarie Capital and Maxit Capital has acted as co-financial advisors to Richmont and the Richmont Board in connection with the Arrangement. Under its engagement letters with each of Macquarie Capital and Maxit Capital, Richmont has agreed to pay each of them a fee for their respective services, including a fee for the delivery by each of them of its Richmont Fairness Opinion, a fee upon the successful completion of the Arrangement or another change of control transaction involving Richmont or a sale of a substantial portion of Richmont’s asset, and fees that are contingent upon the occurrence of certain other events. Each of the Richmont Special Committee and the Richmont Board took this fee structure into account when considering the Richmont Fairness Opinions. Richmont has also agreed to indemnify each of Macquarie Capital and Maxit Capital and certain related persons against certain liabilities in connection with their respective engagements and to reimburse Macquarie Capital and Maxit Capital for expenses incurred by them. Recommendation of the Alamos Board After careful consideration, including consultation with its legal and financial advisors, the receipt of the Alamos Fairness Opinion and the other factors set out below under the heading “The Arrangement – Recommendation of the Alamos Board – Reasons for the Recommendation of the Alamos Board”, the Alamos Board determined that the Arrangement is in the best interests of Alamos, and unanimously passed a resolution approving the Arrangement, authorizing the entering into of the Arrangement Agreement and recommending that Alamos Shareholders VOTE IN FAVOUR of the Alamos Share Issuance Resolution. Reasons for the Recommendation of the Alamos Board In the course of its evaluation of the Arrangement, the Alamos Board considered a number of factors, including those listed below, with the benefit of advice from Alamos’ senior management, BMO Capital Markets and Alamos’ legal counsel. The following is a summary of the principal reasons for the unanimous recommendation of the Alamos Board that Alamos Shareholders VOTE IN FAVOUR of the Alamos Share Issuance Resolution:  Acquisition of a high-quality, free cash flowing mine in a world class jurisdiction. The Island Gold Mine is a long-life, high-grade, underground mine with significant exploration potential, increasing production and first quartile cash costs, located in Ontario, Canada.  Solidifies Alamos’ position as a leading intermediate gold producer. Alamos is expected to have diversified gold production of over 500,000 ounces in 2017, anchored by three core, low-cost, long-life operations in Canada and Mexico.  Superior production growth and cost profile. The Island Gold Mine’s near-term production growth complements Alamos’ existing peer-leading growth profile, while lowering the near- and long-term cost profile of Alamos. The Alamos Board also anticipates delivery of cost savings through corporate, tax and other operating synergies.  Improved cash flow generation to support peer leading growth pipeline. The Island Gold Mine provides immediate cash flow accretion and strong operating cash flow to support internal growth initiatives of Alamos.  Stronger financial position and flexibility. Alamos will have increased financial flexibility with enhanced free cash flow and a strengthened balance sheet with cash and equity securities of approximately $201 million as at June 30, 2017 on a pro forma basis.  Revaluation opportunity through enhanced capital markets profile. Alamos will become a top 10 gold producer in North America (based on estimated 2018 production), with nearly 60% of its production in Canada, peer leading growth, a strong balance sheet, proven management team, and expected increased trading liquidity providing a strong revaluation opportunity through its potentially enhanced appeal in the market.  Fairness opinion. The Alamos Board has received a fairness opinion from BMO Capital Markets to the effect that, as at September 10, 2017, and subject to the assumptions, limitations and qualifications set out

- 43 - therein, the consideration to be paid by Alamos pursuant to the Arrangement is fair, from a financial point of view, to Alamos. See “The Arrangement – Alamos Fairness Opinion”.  Support of Alamos directors and senior officers. All of the directors and senior officers of Alamos have entered into the Alamos Lock-Up Agreements pursuant to which they have agreed, among other things, to vote their Alamos Shares in favour of the Alamos Share Issuance Resolution. As of the date of the Arrangement Agreement, the Alamos Locked-Up Shareholders collectively beneficially owned or exercised control or direction over an aggregate of approximately 6,373,250 Alamos Shares or other securities of Alamos convertible into Alamos Shares, representing approximately 1.97% of the Alamos Shares on a fully diluted basis.  Other factors. The Alamos Board also considered the Arrangement with reference to current economic, industry and market trends affecting each of Alamos and Richmont in the gold market, information concerning the reserves and resources, business, operations, properties, assets, financial condition, operating results and prospects of each of Alamos and Richmont and the then historical trading prices of the Alamos Shares and the Richmont Shares. In addition, the Alamos Board considered the risks relating to the Arrangement, including those matters described under the heading “Risk Factors”. The Alamos Board believes that, overall, the anticipated benefits of the Arrangement to Alamos outweigh these risks. In making its determinations and recommendations, the Alamos Board also observed that a number of procedural safeguards were in place and are present to permit the Alamos Board to represent the interests of Alamos, the Alamos Shareholders and Alamos’ other stakeholders. These procedural safeguards include, among others:  Ability to respond to superior proposals. Notwithstanding the limitations contained in the Arrangement Agreement on Alamos’ ability to solicit interest from third parties, the Arrangement Agreement allows Alamos to engage in discussions or negotiations regarding any unsolicited Acquisition Proposal received prior to the Alamos Meeting that constitutes or that may reasonably be expected to lead to an Alamos Superior Proposal.  Reasonable Termination Payment. The amount of the Termination Payment, being C$35 million and payable under certain circumstances described under “Summary of Material Agreements – The Arrangement Agreement – Termination – Termination Payments”, is reasonable.  Shareholder approval. The Alamos Share Issuance Resolution must be approved by the affirmative vote of at least a simple majority of the votes cast by Alamos Shareholders who vote in person or by proxy at the Alamos Meeting. The foregoing summary of the information and factors considered by the Alamos Board is not intended to be exhaustive, but includes the material information and factors considered by the Alamos Board in its consideration of the Arrangement. In view of the variety of factors and the amount of information considered in connection with the Alamos Board’s evaluation of the Arrangement, the Alamos Board did not find it practicable to and did not quantify or otherwise attempt to assign any relative weight to each of the specific factors considered in reaching its conclusions and recommendations. In addition, individual members of the Alamos Board may have assigned different weights to different factors in reaching their own conclusion as to the fairness of the Arrangement. Alamos Fairness Opinion Alamos entered into an engagement letter with BMO Capital Markets pursuant to which, among other things, BMO Capital Markets agreed to provide Alamos with an opinion as to the fairness of the consideration to be paid to Richmont Shareholders under the Arrangement, from a financial point of view, to Alamos. At a meeting of the Alamos Board held on September 10, 2017, BMO Capital Markets provided the Alamos Board with an oral opinion, subsequently confirmed in writing to the Alamos Board, to the effect that the issuance of the Alamos Consideration Shares is fair from a financial point of view to Alamos. The full text of the Alamos Fairness Opinion, which sets forth, among other things, the credentials and independence of BMO Capital Markets, the scope of review, the assumptions made, and the limitations of and qualifications in connection with the opinion, is attached to this Circular as Appendix H. The Alamos Fairness Opinion is not intended to be, and does not constitute, a recommendation to any Alamos Shareholder as to how to vote or act at the Alamos Meeting or any matter relating to

- 44 - the Arrangement. The Alamos Fairness Opinion was one of a number of factors taken into consideration by the Alamos Board in considering the Arrangement. This summary of the Alamos Fairness Opinion is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Alamos Fairness Opinion, and Alamos Shareholders are urged to read the Alamos Fairness Opinion in its entirety. The Alamos Fairness Opinion was rendered on the basis of securities markets, economic and general business and financial conditions prevailing as at the date of the Alamos Fairness Opinion and the conditions and prospects, financial and otherwise, of Alamos and Richmont, as applicable, as they were reflected in the information and documents reviewed by BMO Capital Markets and as they were represented to BMO Capital Markets. Subsequent developments may affect the Alamos Fairness Opinion. BMO Capital Markets has disclaimed any undertaking or obligation to amend or update the Alamos Fairness Opinion or to advise any person of any change in any fact or matter affecting the Alamos Fairness Opinion which may come or be brought to the attention of BMO Capital Markets after the date of the Alamos Fairness Opinion, and reserved the right in specified circumstances to change or withdraw the Alamos Fairness Opinion. BMO Capital Markets has acted as financial advisor to Alamos in connection with the Arrangement. BMO Capital Markets participates in Alamos’ credit facility as a lender and provides other financial advisory and banking services to Alamos, from time to time. Under its engagement letter with BMO Capital Markets, Alamos has agreed to pay BMO Capital Markets a fee for its services, including a fee for the delivery of the Alamos Fairness Opinion and fees that are contingent upon the completion or non-completion of the Arrangement. The Alamos Board took this fee structure into account when considering the Alamos Fairness Opinion. Alamos has also agreed to indemnify BMO Capital Markets and certain related persons against certain liabilities in connection with its engagement and to reimburse BMO Capital Markets for expenses it incurs. Description of the Arrangement Pursuant to the Arrangement, Alamos will acquire all of the outstanding Richmont Shares. Based on the number of Richmont Shares and Alamos Shares outstanding on September 8, 2017, immediately following completion of the Arrangement and assuming all Richmont Options and Richmont Retained Employee RSUs are exchanged for Alamos Replacement Options or Alamos Replacement RSUs, as applicable, on a pro forma basis, former Richmont Shareholders immediately prior to the Effective Time are anticipated to collectively own approximately 23% of the Alamos Shares issued and outstanding immediately after the Effective Time, and existing Alamos Shareholders immediately prior to the Effective Time are anticipated to collectively own approximately 77% of the Alamos Shares issued and outstanding immediately after the Effective Time. Effect of Arrangement on Holders of Richmont Shares Pursuant to the Arrangement, Richmont Shareholders (other than Dissenting Richmont Shareholders) will receive 1.385 Alamos Shares for each Richmont Share held. See “The Arrangement – The Plan of Arrangement” and “Summary of Material Agreements – The Arrangement Agreement”. Dissenting Richmont Shareholders will be deemed to have assigned and transferred their Richmont Shares to Richmont, and will cease to have any rights as Richmont Shareholders other than the right to be paid the fair value for such Richmont Shares in accordance with the Plan of Arrangement. See “The Arrangement – Dissent Rights for Richmont Shareholders”. Effect of Arrangement on Holders of Richmont Options, Richmont RSUs and Richmont DSUs Pursuant to the Arrangement, (i) each Richmont Option which is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will be exchanged for a number of Alamos Replacement Options equal to the Exchange Ratio multiplied by the number of Richmont Shares subject to such Richmont Option, (ii) each Richmont DSU and Richmont RSU (other than a Richmont Retained Employee RSU) which is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will be deemed to be transferred to Richmont in exchange for a cash payment from Richmont equal to the amount of the Consideration Cash Value of such Richmont DSU or Richmont RSU, as the case may be, and (iii) each Richmont Retained Employee RSU which is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will be exchanged for an Alamos Replacement RSU. The Alamos Replacement Options shall have no vesting provisions and an expiry date of one year from the date of issuance. See “The Arrangement – The Plan of Arrangement”.

- 45 - Summary of Key Procedural Steps for the Arrangement to Become Effective In order for the Arrangement to become effective: (a) the Richmont Arrangement Resolution must be approved by the Richmont Shareholders in the manner set forth in the Interim Order; (b) the Alamos Share Issuance Resolution must be approved by the Alamos Shareholders in the manner required by the TSX; (c) the Court must grant the Final Order approving the Arrangement; (d) all conditions precedent to the Arrangement, as set forth in the Arrangement Agreement, must be satisfied or waived by the appropriate party; and (e) the Articles of Arrangement in the form prescribed by the QBCA must be filed with the Enterprise Registrar. Subject to the foregoing, the Arrangement will become effective at 12:01 a.m. (Eastern time) on the date the Articles of Arrangement are filed with the Enterprise Registrar, which is expected to occur on November 23, 2017. Upon issuance of the Final Order and on or before the third business day following satisfaction or waiver of the conditions precedent to the Arrangement set forth in the Arrangement Agreement, Richmont will file the Articles of Arrangement and such other documents as may be required to give effect to the Arrangement with the Enterprise Registrar pursuant to Chapter XVI – Division II of the QBCA, whereupon the transactions comprising the Arrangement shall occur and shall be deemed to have occurred in the order set out in the Plan of Arrangement without any further act or formality. The Arrangement will be binding on: (i) Alamos; (ii) Richmont; (iii) all holders of Richmont Shares; (iv) all holders of Richmont Options, Richmont RSUs, Richmont DSUs and any security into which they may be converted or exchanged or otherwise converted pursuant to the Plan of Arrangement; and (v) the Depositary. The Plan of Arrangement Pursuant to the terms of the Plan of Arrangement, at the Effective Time, except as otherwise noted herein, the following shall occur and shall be deemed to occur consecutively, five minutes apart and in the following order, without any further act or formality required on the part of any person, in each case effective as at the Effective Time: (a) notwithstanding the terms of the Richmont Rights Plan, the Richmont Rights Plan shall be terminated and all rights issued pursuant to the Richmont Rights Plan shall be cancelled without any payment in respect thereof; (b) each Richmont Option outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be exchanged for a number of Alamos Replacement Options, equal to the Exchange Ratio multiplied by the number of Richmont Shares subject to such Richmont Option, each of which such Alamos Replacement Option would entitle the holder thereof to acquire one Alamos Share, at an exercise price per Alamos Share equal to the exercise price per Richmont Share of such Richmont Option immediately prior to the Effective Time divided by the Exchange Ratio, provided that the aggregate number of such Alamos Replacement Options shall be rounded down to the nearest whole number and the exercise price of such Alamos Replacement Option shall be, and shall be deemed to be, adjusted by the amount, and only to the extent, necessary to ensure that the aggregate In the Money Amount of such Alamos Replacement Options does not exceed the aggregate In the Money Amount of all such Richmont Options before the exchange. The Alamos Replacement Options shall have no vesting provisions and an expiry date of one year from the date of issuance. Except as aforesaid, the conditions to and manner of exercising and all other terms and conditions of such Alamos Replacement Options will be the same as the Richmont Option for which they are exchanged, and any document or agreement previously evidencing such Richmont Option shall thereafter evidence and be deemed to evidence such Alamos Replacement Options;

- 46 - (c) each Richmont DSU outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (whether vested or unvested), notwithstanding the terms of the Richmont DSU Plan, shall be deemed to be assigned and transferred by such holder to Richmont in exchange for a cash payment from Richmont equal to the amount of the Consideration Cash Value, and each such Richmont DSU shall be cancelled. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any payment or settlement in respect of a Richmont DSU that immediately prior to the exchange described above constituted deferred compensation subject to Section 409A of the U.S. Tax Code shall be made on the earliest practicable payment or settlement date for such Richmont DSU that does not give rise to a violation of, or the imposition of taxes or penalties under, Section 409A of the U.S. Tax Code; (d) each Richmont RSU outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (whether vested or unvested), other than the Richmont Retained Employee RSUs, notwithstanding the terms of the Richmont LTIP, shall, without any further action by or on behalf of the holder thereof, be deemed to be assigned and transferred by such holder to Richmont in exchange for a cash payment from Richmont equal to the amount of the Consideration Cash Value and each such Richmont RSU shall be cancelled; (e) each Richmont Retained Employee RSU outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be exchanged for an Alamos Replacement RSU having a value equal to the value of such Richmont Retained Employee RSU immediately prior to the Effective Time, which shall be determined with reference to Alamos Shares based on the Exchange Ratio, provided that the Exchange Ratio shall be modified in a manner such that the aggregate fair market value of the Alamos Shares to be acquired or received under the Alamos Replacement RSU immediately after the issuance of the Alamos Replacement RSU will not exceed the aggregate fair market value of the Richmont Shares that would have been acquired or received under the Richmont Retained Employee RSU immediately before the issuance of the Alamos Replacement RSU. Except as aforesaid, the terms and conditions of such Alamos Replacement RSU will be the same as the Richmont Retained Employee RSU for which it is exchanged, and any document or agreement previously evidencing such Richmont Retained Employee RSU shall thereafter evidence and be deemed to evidence such Alamos Replacement RSU; (f) all Richmont Shares held by Dissenting Richmont Shareholders shall be deemed to have been assigned and transferred (free and clear of all Liens) to Richmont in exchange for a debt claim against Richmont in an amount determined in accordance with the Plan of Arrangement, and: (i) such Dissenting Richmont Shareholders shall cease to be the holders of such Richmont Shares and to have any rights as Richmont Shareholders other than the right to be paid the fair value for such Richmont Shares; (ii) the name of each such holder will be removed as a Richmont Shareholder from the registers of Richmont Shareholders maintained by or on behalf of Richmont in respect of the Richmont Shares; and (iii) the holder of each such Richmont Share immediately prior to such transfer shall be deemed to have executed and delivered all consents, releases, assignments and waivers, statutory or otherwise, required to so assign and transfer such Richmont Share; and (g) each Richmont Share (other than Richmont Shares held by Dissenting Richmont Shareholders which were assigned and transferred to Richmont pursuant to the Plan of Arrangement) shall be deemed to have been assigned and transferred (free and clear of all Liens) to Alamos in exchange for Alamos Shares based on the Exchange Ratio. Arrangement Consideration All Alamos Consideration Shares issued pursuant to the Plan of Arrangement shall be fully paid and non-assessable and Alamos shall be deemed to have received the full consideration therefor and if such consideration shall not be money, any such non-cash consideration shall have a value that is not less in value than the fair equivalent of the money that Alamos would have received had the applicable Alamos Shares been issued for money.

- 47 - Procedure for Exchange of Richmont Shares Enclosed with this Circular as sent to Richmont Shareholders is the Letter of Transmittal printed on blue paper which, when properly completed and duly executed and returned to the Depositary together with a certificate or certificates representing Richmont Shares and all other required documents, will enable each Richmont Shareholder to obtain the Alamos Consideration Shares to which such Richmont Shareholder is entitled under the Arrangement. The Letter of Transmittal sets out the details to be followed by each Registered Richmont Shareholder for delivering the share certificate(s) held by such Registered Richmont Shareholder to the Depositary. In order to receive DRS Advices representing Alamos Shares which the Registered Richmont Shareholder is entitled to receive on the completion of the Arrangement, Registered Richmont Shareholders must deposit with the Depositary (at the address specified on the last page of the Letter of Transmittal) the applicable validly completed and duly signed Letter of Transmittal together with the share certificate(s) representing the Registered Richmont Shareholder’s Richmont Shares and such other documents and instruments as Alamos or the Depositary may reasonably require. Provided that a Registered Richmont Shareholder has returned a properly completed and executed Letter of Transmittal and has presented and surrendered the share certificate(s) representing such Registered Richmont Shareholder’s Richmont Shares to the Depositary, together with such other documents and instruments as Alamos or the Depositary may reasonably require as set forth in the Letter of Transmittal, the Depositary will cause the Alamos Consideration Shares, less any applicable tax withholdings for each Richmont Share exchanged pursuant to the Arrangement, in the form of DRS Advices representing Alamos Shares to be sent to such Registered Richmont Shareholder as soon as practicable following the Effective Date. The Alamos Consideration Shares will be either: (a) issued and mailed in accordance with the instructions provided by the Registered Richmont Shareholder in its Letter of Transmittal; (b) held for pick-up at the offices of the Depositary if directed by the Registered Richmont Shareholder in its Letter of Transmittal; or (c) if no instructions are provided by the Registered Richmont Shareholder in the Letter of Transmittal, issued in the name of the Registered Richmont Shareholder and mailed to the address of the Registered Richmont Shareholder as it appears in the register of shareholders of Richmont. A Registered Richmont Shareholder who does not deposit a properly completed and executed Letter of Transmittal with the Depositary or who does not surrender the share certificate(s) representing such Registered Richmont Shareholder’s Richmont Shares in accordance with the Letter of Transmittal or does not otherwise comply with the requirements of the Letter of Transmittal and the instructions therein will not be entitled to receive Alamos Consideration Shares until the Registered Richmont Shareholder deposits with the Depositary a properly completed and executed Letter of Transmittal and the certificate(s) representing the Registered Richmont Shareholder’s Richmont Shares. If the Arrangement is not completed, the Letter of Transmittal will be of no effect and the Depositary will return all deposited share certificate(s) to the Registered Richmont Shareholder as soon as possible. The Letter of Transmittal is also available on Richmont’s website at https://www.richmont-mines.com and on SEDAR at www.sedar.com. Additional copies of the Letters of Transmittal will also be available by contacting the joint proxy solicitation agent, toll free at 1-877-452-7184 or collect at 416-304-0211 or using the other contact details listed on the back page of this Circular. Non-Registered Richmont Shareholders whose Richmont Shares are registered in the name of a broker, dealer, bank, trust company or other nominee must contact their nominee to deposit their Richmont Shares. It is recommended that Registered Richmont Shareholders complete, sign and return the Letter of Transmittal with the accompanying share certificate(s) representing their Richmont Shares to the Depositary as soon as possible. Fractional Shares No fractional Alamos Shares shall be issued to any person pursuant to the Plan of Arrangement. Where the aggregate number of Alamos Shares to be issued to a Richmont Shareholder pursuant to the Arrangement would result in a fraction of an Alamos Share being issuable, (i) the number of Alamos Shares to be received by such former Richmont Shareholder shall be rounded down to the nearest whole Alamos Share, and (ii) such former Richmont Shareholder shall receive a cash payment representing such former Richmont Shareholder’s proportionate interest, if any, in the proceeds from the sale by the Depositary (reduced by any fees of the Depositary attributable to such sale), as agent for such former Richmont Shareholders, in one or more transactions, of the number of Alamos

- 48 - Shares (which Alamos shall issue to the Depositary on behalf of such Richmont Shareholders) equal to the excess of (a) the aggregate number of Alamos Shares that otherwise would be issued to the Richmont Shareholders pursuant to the Arrangement over (b) the aggregate number of Alamos Shares actually issued to Richmont Shareholders as described in clause (i) above. Lost Certificates In the event any certificate which immediately prior to the Effective Time represented one or more outstanding Richmont Shares that were transferred pursuant to the Plan of Arrangement shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the person claiming such certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed, the Depositary will pay and deliver, in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed certificate, the Alamos Consideration Shares to which the holder thereof is entitled under the Arrangement, net of any amounts required to be withheld (see “The Arrangement – Withholding Rights”), in accordance with such holder’s Letter of Transmittal. When authorizing such payment and delivery in exchange for any lost, stolen or destroyed certificate, the person to whom the payment is made shall, as a condition precedent to the delivery thereof, give a bond satisfactory to Richmont, Alamos and the Depositary in such sum as Alamos may direct or otherwise indemnify Alamos in a manner satisfactory to Alamos against any claim that may be made against Alamos with respect to the certificate alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed. Extinction of Rights Until surrendered by the holder thereof, each certificate that immediately prior to the Effective Time represented outstanding Richmont Shares shall be deemed, immediately after the completion of the Arrangement, to represent only the right to receive upon such surrender the Alamos Consideration Shares in respect of such Richmont Shares. Any such certificate formerly representing outstanding Richmont Shares not duly surrendered on or before the sixth anniversary of the Effective Date shall cease to represent a claim by or interest of any former Richmont Shareholder of any kind or nature against or in Alamos or Richmont. Any payment made by way of cheque by the Depositary or by Richmont pursuant to the Arrangement that has not been deposited or has been returned to the Depositary or Richmont or that otherwise remains unclaimed, in each case, on or before the sixth anniversary of the Effective Date, and any right or claim to such payment that remains outstanding on the sixth anniversary of the Effective Date, shall cease to represent a right or claim of any kind or nature and the right of any holder of Richmont Shares, Richmont Options, Richmont RSUs or Richmont DSUs to receive the consideration for any such securities pursuant to the Arrangement shall terminate and be deemed to be surrendered and forfeited to Alamos (or Richmont, as applicable) for no consideration. Withholding Rights Each of Richmont, Alamos and the Depositary shall be entitled to deduct or withhold from any consideration otherwise payable to any holder of Richmont Shares, Richmont Options, Richmont RSUs or Richmont DSUs under the Arrangement such amounts as Richmont, Alamos or the Depositary may be required to deduct or withhold with respect to such payment under the Tax Act or any provision of applicable laws and shall remit such amounts to the appropriate Governmental Entity. To the extent that an amount is so deducted or withheld and remitted, such amount shall be treated for all purposes as having been paid to the holder of Richmont Shares, Richmont Options, Richmont RSUs or Richmont DSUs, as the case may be, in respect of which such deduction or withholding was made. Each of Richmont, Alamos and the Depositary that makes a payment to any Richmont Shareholder under the Arrangement shall be authorized to sell or otherwise dispose of such number of Alamos Shares otherwise issuable to such Richmont Shareholder (if any) as is necessary to provide sufficient funds to enable it to comply with its deducting or withholding requirements and such party shall notify the applicable Richmont Shareholder and remit any unapplied balance of the net proceeds of such sale to such Richmont Shareholder. Stock Exchange Listings for Alamos Consideration Shares The Alamos Shares are listed on the TSX and the NYSE trading under the symbol “AGI”. Alamos has applied to the TSX and the NYSE to list the Alamos Shares issuable under the Arrangement. It is a condition of closing that the TSX and the NYSE shall have conditionally approved the listing of the Alamos Consideration Shares, subject to official notice of issuance and the satisfaction of customary conditions required by such exchanges.

- 49 - Approvals Richmont Shareholder Approval In order to become effective, the Richmont Arrangement Resolution will require: (i) the affirmative vote of at least 66⅔% of the votes cast by Richmont Shareholders, voting as a single class, who vote in person or by proxy at the Richmont Meeting; and (ii) the affirmative vote of at least a simple majority of the votes cast by Richmont Shareholders voting as a single class, who vote in person or by proxy at the Richmont Meeting, after excluding the Richmont Excluded Votes. See “The Richmont Meeting – Business of the Richmont Meeting”. As disclosed herein, there are certain agreements, commitments or understandings existing between Richmont and certain of its directors and senior officers pursuant to which such individuals may receive certain payments or other benefits by way of compensation for loss of office upon completion of the Arrangement. See “Interest Of Certain Persons In Matters To Be Acted Upon – Richmont Change of Control Payments”. Richmont is a reporting issuer in all the provinces of Canada and is subject to MI 61-101. MI 61-101 regulates insider bids, issuer bids, business combinations and related party transactions to ensure equality of treatment among securityholders, generally by requiring enhanced disclosure, approval by a majority of securityholders, excluding interested parties or related parties and their respective joint actors and, in certain instances, independent valuations and approval and oversight of certain transactions by a special committee of independent directors. The Arrangement does not constitute an issuer bid, an insider bid or a related party transaction for the purposes of MI 61- 101. However, because the Arrangement is a transaction in which the interests of a Richmont securityholder could be terminated without such securityholder’s consent, if any director or senior officer of Richmont is entitled to receive, directly or indirectly, a “collateral benefit” (as such term is defined in MI 61-101) as a consequence of the Arrangement, the Arrangement will constitute a “business combination” for the purposes of MI 61-101 and the Richmont Arrangement Resolution will require “minority approval” in accordance with MI 61-101. Pursuant to the “minority approval” requirement, the Richmont Arrangement Resolution must be approved by a simple majority of the votes cast by Richmont Shareholders, excluding any votes attaching to Richmont Shares beneficially owned, or over which control or direction is exercised, by any directors or senior officers of Richmont who are entitled to receive, directly or indirectly, a “collateral benefit” as a consequence of the Arrangement. A “collateral benefit” (as defined in MI 61-101) includes any benefit that a related party of Richmont is entitled to receive, directly or indirectly, as a consequence of the Arrangement, including, without limitation, an increase in salary, a lump sum payment, a payment for surrendering securities, or other enhancement in benefits related to past or future services as an employee, director or consultant of Richmont or of another person. However, MI 61-101 excludes from the meaning of collateral benefit, among other things, a payment or distribution per security that is identical in amount and form to the entitlement of the general body of holders in Canada of securities of the same class, as well as certain benefits to a related party received solely in connection with the related party’s services as an employee, director or consultant of Richmont where: (a) the benefit is not conferred for the purpose, in whole or in part, of increasing the value of the consideration paid to the related party for securities relinquished under the transaction; (b) the conferring of the benefit is not, by its terms, conditional on the related party supporting the transaction in any manner; (c) full particulars of the benefit are disclosed in the disclosure document for the transaction; and (d) either (i) at the time the transaction is agreed to, the related party and its “associated entities” (as defined in MI 61-101) beneficially own, or exercise control or direction over, less than 1% of the outstanding equity securities (in the case of Richmont, the Richmont Shares), or (ii) in the case of a business combination, (A) the related party discloses to an independent committee of Richmont the amount of consideration that he or she expects to be beneficially entitled to receive, under the terms of the transaction, in exchange for the equity securities beneficially owned by him or her, (B) the independent committee, acting in good faith, determines that the value of the benefit, net of any offsetting costs to the related party, is less than 5% of the value the related party expects to receive pursuant to the transaction in exchange for the equity securities beneficially owned by him or her, and (C) the independent committee’s determination is disclosed in the disclosure document for the transaction. Beneficial ownership is calculated on a partially-diluted basis for the purposes of MI 61-101. The only director or senior officer of Richmont who is entitled to payments or other benefits by way of compensation for loss of office upon completion of the Arrangement and who beneficially owns 1% or more of the issued and outstanding Richmont Shares calculated in accordance with MI 61-101 is Renaud Adams, Richmont’s President and Chief Executive Officer. The amounts that may become payable to Mr. Adams under his executive

- 50 - employment agreement by way of compensation for loss of office upon completion of the Arrangement exceed 5% of the value Mr. Adams expects to receive pursuant to the Arrangement in exchange for his Richmont Shares. As a result, such amounts constitute a “collateral benefit” in connection with the Arrangement and, accordingly, Richmont will treat all votes cast at the Richmont Meeting in respect of Richmont Shares held, directly or indirectly, by Mr. Adams as Richmont Excluded Votes. As of October 17, 2017, Mr. Adams beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, 123,259 Richmont Shares, 691,355 Richmont Options and 95,903 Richmont RSUs, representing 0.19% of the Richmont Shares on a non-diluted basis and 1.41% of the Richmont Shares on a partially diluted basis. Alamos Shareholder Approval In order to become effective, the Alamos Share Issuance Resolution will require the affirmative vote of at least a simple majority of the votes cast by Alamos Shareholders, voting as a single class, who vote in person or by proxy at the Alamos Meeting. See “The Alamos Meeting – Business of the Alamos Meeting”. Court Approval The QBCA requires that Richmont and Alamos obtain the approval of the Court in respect of the Arrangement. On October 17, 2017, the Court granted the Interim Order which provides for the calling and holding of the Richmont Meeting and other procedural matters. A copy of the Interim Order is attached as Appendix C to this Circular. The Court hearing in respect of the Final Order is expected to take place at the Court, located at 1 Notre Dame Street East, Montréal, Québec, Room 16, on November 21, 2017 at 9:00 a.m. (Eastern time), or as soon thereafter as counsel may be heard, subject to the terms of the Arrangement Agreement, the approval of the Richmont Arrangement Resolution at the Richmont Meeting and the approval of the Alamos Share Issuance Resolution at the Alamos Meeting. At the hearing, the Court will consider, among other things, the fairness of the terms and conditions of the Arrangement and the rights and interests of every person affected. The Court may approve the Arrangement in any manner the Court may direct, subject to compliance with such terms and conditions, if any, as the Court deems fit. Prior to the hearing on the Final Order, the Court will be informed that the parties intend to rely on the exemption from the registration requirements under the U.S. Securities Act for the issuance of Alamos Consideration Shares pursuant to the Arrangement provided by section 3(a)(10) thereof on the basis of the Final Order. Under the terms of the Interim Order, any holder of Richmont Shares will have the right to appear at the hearing and make submissions at the application for the Final Order subject to such party filing with the Court and serving upon Richmont by service upon counsel to Richmont, Fasken Martineau DuMoulin LLP, Stock Exchange Tower, 800 Square Victoria, Suite 3700 P.O. Box 242, Montréal, Québec H4Z 1E9, fax number: 1-514-397-7600, Attention: Alain Riendeau, a notice of appearance in the form required by the Court’s rules, and any additional affidavits or other materials on which a party intends to rely in connection with any submissions at such hearing, as soon as reasonably practicable, and, in any event, no less than five days before the hearing of the application. There can be no assurance that the Court will approve the Arrangement. Canadian Competition Act Approval Part IX of the Competition Act requires that the Commissioner of Competition or any person duly authorized to exercise the powers of the Commissioner of Competition (the “Commissioner”) be notified of certain classes of transactions that exceed the thresholds set out in sections 109 and 110 of the Competition Act (“Notifiable Transactions”) by the parties to such transaction. Subject to certain limited exceptions, the parties to a Notifiable Transaction cannot complete the transaction until they have submitted the information prescribed pursuant to section 114 of the Competition Act to the Commissioner and the applicable waiting period has expired, been terminated or the obligation to notify has been waived by the Commissioner pursuant to section 123(2) of the Competition Act. The waiting period is 30 calendar days after the day on which the parties to the transaction submit the prescribed information to the Commissioner, provided that, before the expiry of this period, the Commissioner has not notified the parties that he requires additional information that is relevant to the Commissioner’s assessment of the transaction pursuant to subsection 114(2) of the Competition Act (a “Supplementary Information Request”). In the event that the Commissioner provides the parties with a Supplementary Information Request, the parties cannot complete their transaction until 30 calendar days after compliance with such Supplementary Information Request, provided that there is no order in effect prohibiting completion at the relevant time. A transaction may be completed before the end of the applicable waiting

- 51 - period if the Commissioner notifies the parties that he does not, at such time, intend to challenge the transaction by making an application under section 92 of the Competition Act. Alternatively, or in addition to filing a pre-merger notification, an ARC may be requested. An ARC may be issued by the Commissioner where he is satisfied that he would not have sufficient grounds on which to apply to the Competition Tribunal under section 92 of the Competition Act to challenge a Notifiable Transaction. If the Commissioner issues an ARC in respect of a Notifiable Transaction, that transaction is exempt from the pre-merger notification requirement. In addition, if the transaction to which the ARC relates is substantially completed within one year after the ARC is issued, the Commissioner cannot seek an order of the Competition Tribunal under the merger provisions of the Competition Act in respect of the transaction solely on the basis of information that is the same or substantially the same as the information on the basis of which the ARC was issued. Accordingly, ARCs are generally issued in respect of transactions that raise minimal substantive competition law issues. Where an ARC is requested but the Commissioner declines to issue an ARC, the Commissioner may instead issue a No Action Letter indicating that he does not at that time intend to initiate proceedings before the Competition Tribunal under the merger provisions of the Competition Act with respect to the transaction, while preserving his authority to so initiate proceedings during the one year period following completion of the transaction should circumstances change. Where a No Action Letter is issued in circumstances where a pre-merger notification filing has not also been made, the Commissioner will typically waive the obligation to comply with the statutory waiting period in conjunction with issuing the No Action Letter. The transactions involving Richmont and Alamos pursuant to the Arrangement constitute a Notifiable Transaction. Accordingly, on September 26, 2017, Richmont and Alamos submitted a request to the Commissioner seeking to obtain an ARC or, if an ARC is not available, a No Action Letter and a waiver of the pre-merger notification obligation, in respect of the transactions contemplated under the Arrangement. Dissent Rights for Richmont Shareholders The following description of the rights of Dissenting Richmont Shareholders is not a comprehensive statement of the procedures to be followed by a Dissenting Richmont Shareholder who seeks payment of the fair value of its Richmont Shares and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Plan of Arrangement, a copy of which is attached to this Circular as Appendix E, the full text of the Interim Order, which is attached to this Circular as Appendix C, and the provisions of Chapter XIV – Division I of the QBCA, which is attached to this Circular as Appendix L. Pursuant to the Interim Order, Dissenting Richmont Shareholders have the right to demand the repurchase of their Richmont Shares under the QBCA, as modified or supplemented by the Interim Order, the Plan of Arrangement and any other order of the Court. A Dissenting Richmont Shareholder who intends to exercise Dissent Rights should carefully consider and comply with the provisions of Chapter XIV – Division I of the QBCA, as modified by the Interim Order, the Plan of Arrangement and any other order of the Court. The statutory provisions covering the right to exercise Dissent Rights are technical and complex. Failure to strictly comply with the requirements set forth in Chapter XIV – Division I of the QBCA (as modified or supplemented by the Interim Order, the Plan of Arrangement and any other order of the Court) may result in the loss of Dissent Rights. It is recommended that you seek independent legal advice if you wish to exercise Dissent Rights. The Court hearing the application for the Final Order has the discretion to alter the Dissent Rights described herein based on the evidence presented at such hearing. Under the Interim Order, each registered Richmont Shareholder is entitled, in addition to any other rights the holder may have, to exercise Dissent Rights and to be paid by Richmont the fair value of the Richmont Shares held by the holder in respect of which the holder exercises Dissent Rights, determined, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Chapter XIV of the QBCA, as of the close of business on the day before the Richmont Arrangement Resolution was adopted. Only registered Richmont Shareholders may exercise Dissent Rights. Persons who are beneficial owners of Richmont Shares registered in the name of a broker, custodian, nominee or other intermediary who wish to exercise Dissent Rights should be aware that they may only do so through the registered owner of such Richmont Shares. The Richmont Shares are most likely global securities registered in the name of CDS & Co. with CDS & Co. as the sole registered holder of the Richmont Shares. Accordingly, a non- registered owner of Richmont Shares desiring to exercise Dissent Rights must make arrangements for the Richmont Shares beneficially owned by that holder to be registered in the name of the Richmont Shareholder prior to the time the Dissent Notice is required to be received by Richmont or, alternatively, make arrangements for the registered

- 52 - holder of such Richmont Shares to exercise Dissent Rights on behalf of the holder. In such case, the Dissent Notice should specify the number of Richmont Shares that are subject to the dissent. A Dissenting Richmont Shareholder may only dissent with respect to all the Richmont Shares held on behalf of any one beneficial owner and registered in the name of the Dissenting Richmont Shareholder, subject to such Dissenting Richmont Shareholder exercising all the voting rights carried by such Richmont Shares against the Richmont Arrangement Resolution. Note that sections 393 to 397 of the QBCA, the text of which is attached as Appendix L to this Circular, set forth special provisions which are required to be followed with respect to the exercise of Dissent Rights by non-registered Richmont Shareholders. A Dissenting Richmont Shareholder must send Richmont a written notice to inform it of his, her or its intention to exercise Dissent Rights (the “Dissent Notice”), which notice must be received by the Secretary of Richmont, at 161 avenue Principale, Rouyn-Noranda, Québec J9X 4P6, fax number: 819-797-0166, with a copy to Fasken Martineau DuMoulin LLP, Stock Exchange Tower, 800 Square Victoria, Suite 3700, P.O. Box 292, Montréal, Québec H4Z 1E9, fax number: 514-397-7600, Attention: Alain Riendeau, by 5:00 p.m. (Montréal time) on November 14, 2017 (or 5:00 p.m. (Montréal time) on the day that is two business days immediately preceding the date that any adjourned or postponed Richmont Meeting is reconvened or held, as the case may be). The giving of a Dissent Notice does not deprive a registered Richmont Shareholder of the right to vote at the Richmont Meeting; however, Richmont Shareholders who do not vote all of their Richmont Shares against the Richmont Arrangement Resolution shall not be entitled to exercise Dissent Rights with respect to such Richmont Shares subject to sections 393 to 397 of the QBCA, given that Chapter XIV – Division I of the QBCA provides there is no right of partial dissent and, pursuant to the Interim Order, a registered Richmont Shareholder may not exercise Dissent Rights in respect of only a portion of such holder’s Richmont Shares. A vote either in person or by proxy against the Richmont Arrangement Resolution will not by itself constitute a Dissent Notice. Richmont Shareholders who validly exercise Dissent Rights shall only be entitled to be paid fair value, in accordance with the provisions of Chapter XIV – Division I of the QBCA, as modified or supplemented by the Interim Order, the Plan of Arrangement and any other order of the Court, if the Richmont Arrangement Resolution has been approved and the Arrangement becomes effective. Promptly after the Effective Time, Richmont is required to give notice (the “Repurchase Notice”) to each Dissenting Richmont Shareholder, which Repurchase Notice shall mention the repurchase price being offered for the Richmont Shares held by all Dissenting Richmont Shareholders and an explanation of how such price was determined. Within 30 days after receiving the Repurchase Notice, each Dissenting Richmont Shareholder is required, if the Dissenting Richmont Shareholder wishes to proceed with exercising Dissent Rights, to deliver to Richmont a written statement: (a) confirming that the Dissenting Richmont Shareholder wishes to exercise his, her or its Dissent Rights and have all of his, her or its Richmont Shares repurchased at the repurchase price indicated in the Repurchase Notice (in such case, a “Notice of Confirmation”); or (b) that the Dissenting Richmont Shareholder contests the repurchase price indicated in the Repurchase Notice and demands an increase in the repurchase price offered (in such case, a “Notice of Contestation”). Additionally, if it has not been done previously, all certificates representing the Richmont Shares in respect of which Dissent Rights were exercised, together with the completed and executed applicable Letter(s) of Transmittal, should be delivered with the Notice of Confirmation or the Notice of Contestation, as applicable. A Dissenting Richmont Shareholder who fails to send to Alamos, within the required timeframe, a Notice of Confirmation or a Notice of Contestation, as the case may be, shall be deemed to have renounced his, her or its Dissent Rights and will be deemed to have participated in the Arrangement on the same basis as Richmont Shareholders who did not exercise Dissent Rights. Upon receiving a Notice of Confirmation within the required timeframe, Richmont shall pay the Dissenting Richmont Shareholder, within 10 days of receiving such Notice of Confirmation, the repurchase price indicated in the Repurchase Notice for all of his, her or its Richmont Shares. Upon receiving a Notice of Contestation within the required timeframe, Richmont may propose an increased repurchase price within 30 days of receiving such Notice of Contestation, which increased repurchase price must be the same for all Richmont Shares held by Dissenting Richmont Shareholder who duly submitted a Notice of

- 53 - Contestation. If (a) Richmont does not follow up on a Dissenting Richmont Shareholder’s contestation within 30 days after receiving its Notice of Contestation or (b) the Dissenting Richmont Shareholder contests the increase in the repurchase price offered by Richmont, such Dissenting Richmont Shareholder may ask the Court to determine the increase in the repurchase price. However, any such application to the Court must be made within 90 days after receiving the Repurchase Notice. As soon as any such application is filed with the Court by any Dissenting Richmont Shareholder, Richmont must notify this fact (a “Notice of Application”) to all the other Dissenting Richmont Shareholders who are still contesting the repurchase price, or the increase in the repurchase price, offered by Richmont. All Dissenting Richmont Shareholders who received the Notice of Application are bound by the judgment of the Court hearing the application as to the fair value of the Richmont Shares (which Court may entrust the appraisal of the fair value to an expert). Within 10 days after such Court judgment, Richmont must pay the repurchase price determined by the Court to all Dissenting Richmont Shareholders who received the Notice of Application, and pay the increase in the repurchase price to all Dissenting Richmont Shareholders who submitted a Notice of Contestation but did not contest the increase in the repurchase price offered by Richmont. However, if Richmont is unable to pay the full increase in the repurchase price because there are reasonable grounds for believing that it is or would be unable to pay its liabilities as they become due, Richmont would only be required to pay the maximum amount it may legally pay the relevant Dissenting Richmont Shareholder. In such a case, such Dissenting Richmont Shareholders remain creditors of Richmont for the unpaid balance of the repurchase price and are entitled to be paid as soon as Richmont is legally able to do so or, in the event of the liquidation of Richmont, are entitled to be collocated after the other creditors but by preference over the other shareholders of Richmont. All Richmont Shares held by registered Richmont Shareholders who exercise their Dissent Rights will, if the holders are ultimately entitled to be paid the fair value thereof, be deemed to be transferred to Alamos in exchange for the right to be paid by Richmont the fair value of their Richmont Shares which fair value, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Chapter XIV of the QBCA, shall be determined as of the close of business on the day before the Richmont Arrangement Resolution was adopted. If such Richmont Shareholders ultimately are not entitled, for any reason, to be paid fair value for such Richmont Shares they shall be deemed to have participated in the Arrangement on the same basis as a non-dissenting holder of Richmont Shares. Registered Richmont Shareholders who are considering exercising Dissent Rights should be aware that there can be no assurance that the fair value of their Richmont Shares as determined under Chapter XIV of the QBCA, as modified by the Interim Order, the Plan of Arrangement and any other order of the Court, will be more than or equal to the consideration payable under the Arrangement. In addition, any judicial determination of fair value will result in a delay of receipt by a Dissenting Richmont Shareholder of payment for such Dissenting Richmont Shareholder’s Richmont Shares. The above summary does not purport to provide a comprehensive statement of the procedures to be followed by Dissenting Richmont Shareholders who seek payment of the fair value of their Richmont Shares. Chapter XIV – Division I of the QBCA requires adherence to the procedures established therein and failure to do so may result in the loss of all rights thereunder. Accordingly, each Dissenting Richmont Shareholder who is considering exercising Dissent Rights should carefully consider and comply with the provisions of that section, the full text of which is set out in Appendix L to this Circular, as modified by the Interim Order, and consult their own legal advisor as failure to strictly comply with the provisions of the QBCA (as modified or supplemented by the Interim Order, the Plan of Arrangement and any other order of the Court) may prejudice Dissent Rights. Also, see Appendix C for a copy of the Interim Order and Appendix L for the provisions of Chapter XIV of the QBCA. Issuance and Resale of Alamos Consideration Shares Canada The distribution of the Alamos Consideration Shares pursuant to the Arrangement will constitute a distribution of securities which is exempt from the prospectus requirements of Canadian securities laws and is exempt from or otherwise is not subject to the registration requirements under applicable Canadian securities laws. The Alamos Consideration Shares received pursuant to the Arrangement will not be legended and may be resold in each of the provinces and territories of Canada provided that: (i) the trade is not a “control distribution” as defined in National Instrument 45-102 – Resale of Securities; (ii) no unusual effort is made to prepare the market or to create a demand for Alamos Shares; (iii) no extraordinary commission or consideration is paid to a person in respect of such sale; and

- 54 - (iv) if the selling securityholder is an insider or officer of Alamos, the selling securityholder has no reasonable grounds to believe that Alamos is in default of applicable Canadian securities laws. Each Richmont Shareholder is urged to consult his or her professional advisors to determine the Canadian conditions and restrictions applicable to trades in Alamos Consideration Shares. United States The following discussion is a general overview of certain requirements of U.S. federal securities laws that may be applicable to Richmont Shareholders in the United States and to U.S. Persons (collectively, “U.S. Shareholders”). All U.S. Shareholders are urged to consult with their own legal counsel to ensure that any subsequent resale of Alamos Shares distributed to them under the Arrangement complies with applicable securities laws. Further information applicable to U.S. Shareholders is disclosed under the heading “Notice to Securityholders in the United States”. The following discussion does not address the Canadian securities laws that will apply to the distribution of Alamos Shares or the resale of Alamos Shares by U.S. Shareholders within Canada. U.S. Shareholders reselling their Alamos Shares in Canada must comply with Canadian securities laws, as outlined elsewhere in this Circular. Alamos Shares to be issued pursuant to the Arrangement have not been, and will not be, registered under the U.S. Securities Act or the securities laws of any state or other jurisdiction. Alamos Shares to be issued in the Arrangement will be issued in reliance upon the exemption from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act provided by section 3(a)(10) of the U.S. Securities Act, based on the approval of the Arrangement by the Court. Section 3(a)(10) of the U.S. Securities Act exempts securities issued in exchange for one or more outstanding securities from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act where the terms and conditions of the issuance and exchange of the securities have been approved by a court of competent jurisdiction, after a hearing upon the fairness of the terms and conditions of the issuance and exchange at which all persons to whom the securities will be issued have the right to appear and to whom adequate notice of the hearing has been given. The Final Order is required for the Arrangement to become effective, and the Court will be advised that if the terms and conditions of the Arrangement are approved by the Court pursuant to the Final Order, Alamos Shares issuable under the Arrangement will not require registration under the U.S. Securities Act, pursuant to section 3(a)(10) thereof. Therefore, if the Court approves the Arrangement, its approval will constitute the basis for Alamos Shares to be issued without registration under the U.S. Securities Act. In addition, Alamos Shares to be issued pursuant to the Arrangement will be issued in compliance with or pursuant to an exemption from the registration or qualification requirements of state or “blue sky” securities laws. Persons who are not “affiliates” of Alamos after the Arrangement and have not been “affiliates” of Alamos in the 90-day period prior to the Arrangement may resell Alamos Shares that they receive in connection with the Arrangement in the United States without restriction under the U.S. Securities Act. As defined in Rule 144 under the U.S. Securities Act, an “affiliate” of an issuer is a person that, directly or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, controls, is controlled by or is under common control with, the issuer and may include certain officers and directors of such issuer as well as principal shareholders of such issuer. U.S. Shareholders should consult their own legal counsel regarding their status as an “affiliate” of Alamos. Alamos Shares received by a holder who will be an “affiliate” of Alamos after the Arrangement, or was an “affiliate” of Alamos within 90 days prior to the Arrangement, may be subject to certain restrictions on resale imposed by the U.S. Securities Act. Such persons may not be able to sell Alamos Shares that they receive in connection with the Arrangement in the absence of registration under the U.S. Securities Act or an exemption from registration, if available, such as the exemptions and safe harbours contained in Rule 144 under the U.S. Securities Act or Rule 903 or 904 of Regulation S of the U.S. Securities Act. Affiliates – Rule 144. In general, under Rule 144 under the U.S. Securities Act, persons who are affiliates of Alamos after the Arrangement or were affiliates of Alamos within 90 days prior to the Arrangement will be entitled to sell in the United States, during any three-month period, a portion of the Alamos Shares that they receive in connection with the Arrangement, provided that the number of such Alamos Shares sold, as the case may be, does not exceed the greater of one percent (1%) of the then outstanding securities of such class or the average weekly trading volume of such securities on all U.S. national securities exchanges (including the NYSE) during the four-calendar week

- 55 - period preceding the date of transmitting to the SEC a notice of sale on Form 144, subject to specified restrictions on manner of sale, the filing of a Form 144, aggregation rules and the availability of current public information about Alamos, as applicable. Persons who are affiliates of Alamos after the Arrangement will continue to be subject to the resale restrictions described in this paragraph for so long as they continue to be affiliates of Alamos. Directors and Officers – Regulation S. In general, under Regulation S of the U.S. Securities Act, persons who are affiliates of Alamos solely by virtue of their status as an officer or director of Alamos may sell Alamos Shares outside the United States in an “offshore transaction” (as such term is defined in Regulation S of the U.S. Securities Act, which would include a sale through the TSX, if applicable) if neither the seller nor any person acting on its behalf engages in “directed selling efforts” (as defined below) in the United States and no selling commission, fee or other remuneration is paid in connection with such sale other than a usual and customary broker’s commission. For purposes of Regulation S of the U.S. Securities Act, “directed selling efforts” means “any activity undertaken for the purpose of, or that could reasonably be expected to have the effect of, conditioning the market in the United States for any of the securities being offered” in the sale transaction. Certain additional restrictions are applicable to a holder of Alamos Shares who is an affiliate of Alamos after the Arrangement other than by virtue of his or her status as an officer or director of Alamos. After completion of the Arrangement, the Alamos Replacement Options and Alamos Replacement RSUs may not be exercised within the United States or by a U.S. Person unless the Alamos Shares issuable pursuant to such securities are registered under the U.S. Securities Act or an exemption from such registration requirements is available.

If the Alamos Board or the Richmont Board, as applicable, so determines, Alamos and Richmont will enter into an amended agreement with the other Party reflecting the amended proposal and will promptly reaffirm its recommendation of the Arrangement, as amended. Each Party has acknowledged and agreed that each successive modification of any Acquisition Proposal will constitute a new Acquisition Proposal for the purposes of the Arrangement Agreement and Alamos or Richmont, as applicable, will be afforded a new five business day response period, and the rights afforded in the Arrangement Agreement will apply in respect of each such Acquisition Proposal.

- 70 -  not, without the prior written consent of Richmont, sell, transfer, assign, pledge, encumber or otherwise dispose of, or enter into any agreement or understanding relating to the sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance or other disposition of, the Alamos Subject Securities or any interest therein (other than as contemplated in the Alamos Lock-Up Agreements), provided, however, that nothing contained in the Alamos Lock-Up Agreements will prohibit the Alamos Locked-Up Shareholders from exercising any Alamos Options or Alamos Warrants, or settling any Alamos PSUs, Alamos RSUs or Alamos DSUs for cash and/or Alamos Shares, as applicable (it being understood that such Alamos Subject Securities will be voted in accordance with the Alamos Lock-Up Agreements);  not, except as required pursuant to the Alamos Lock-Up Agreements, grant or agree to grant any proxy or other right to vote the Alamos Subject Securities or enter into any voting trust or pooling agreement or arrangement in respect of the Alamos Subject Securities or enter into or subject any of the Alamos Subject Securities to any other agreement, arrangement, understanding or commitment, formal or informal, with respect to or relating to the voting or tendering thereof or revoke any proxy granted pursuant to the Alamos Lock-Up Agreements;  not exercise any rights of dissent or appraisal in respect of any resolution approving the Arrangement or any aspect thereof or matter related thereto, and not exercise any other securityholder rights or remedies available at common law or pursuant to applicable corporate or securities law or other legislation or not take any action that is reasonably likely to in any manner impede, interfere with, delay, postpone, hinder, prevent, or challenge the Arrangement;  not, except as may be expressly permitted by the Arrangement Agreement or by Richmont in writing, directly or indirectly: (i) solicit, initiate, knowingly encourage or otherwise facilitate (including by way of furnishing information, knowingly permitting any visit to any facilities or properties of Alamos or any of its Subsidiaries or entering into any form of agreement, arrangement or understanding) any inquiry, proposal, expression of interest or offer that constitutes or that may reasonably be expected to lead to an Alamos Acquisition Proposal; (ii) participate, directly or indirectly, in any discussions or negotiations regarding any inquiry, proposal, expression of interest or offer that constitutes or that may reasonably be expected to lead to an Alamos Acquisition Proposal (provided that, if the Alamos Locked-Up Shareholder is a director or officer of Alamos, the Alamos Locked-Up Shareholder may, in such capacity, advise any person making an unsolicited Alamos Acquisition Proposal that such Alamos Acquisition Proposal does not constitute an Alamos Superior Proposal if the Alamos Board has so determined in compliance with, the Arrangement Agreement) or otherwise cooperate with or assist any effort or attempt to make any Alamos Acquisition Proposal; (iii) requisition or join in the requisition of any meeting of the securityholders of Alamos for the purpose of considering any resolution; or (iv) solicit or arrange (or provide assistance to any other person to arrange) for the solicitation of proxies relating to, or purchases of or offers to sell, Alamos Shares or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for, or representing, Alamos Shares, or act in concert or jointly with any other person for the purpose of acquiring any Alamos Shares or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for, or representing, Alamos Shares for the purpose of influencing the voting of Alamos Shares or affecting the control Alamos, other than, in the case of proxy solicitation, in support of the Arrangement; and  promptly notify Richmont upon any of the Alamos Locked-Up Shareholders’ representations or warranties contained in the Alamos Lock-Up Agreements becoming untrue or incorrect in any material respect prior to the termination of the Alamos Lock-Up Agreements. Nothing contained in the Alamos Lock-Up Agreements will restrict, limit or prohibit the Alamos Locked-Up Shareholders, to the extent applicable, from taking any action in his or her capacity as a director or officer of Alamos or any of its Subsidiaries that is necessary for him or her to comply with his or her fiduciary duties as a director or officer of Alamos under applicable law or that is permitted by the Arrangement Agreement and any such action by the Alamos Locked-Up Shareholder will not constitute a violation of the Alamos Lock-Up Agreements. The obligations of the Alamos Locked-Up Shareholders and Richmont under the Alamos Lock-Up Agreements will automatically terminate at the closing of the Arrangement. The obligations under the Alamos Lock-Up Agreements may also be terminated at any time by mutual consent in writing of Richmont and the Alamos Locked-Up

- 71 - Shareholders, or, unless extended by mutual agreement of the parties, the Alamos Lock-Up Agreements will automatically terminate upon the Arrangement Agreement being terminated in accordance with its terms. As of September 11, 2017, being the date the Arrangement Agreement was entered into, the Alamos Locked-Up Shareholders, together with their associates and affiliates, owned or exercised control or direction over an aggregate of 1,107,878 Alamos Shares, 4,306,470 Alamos Options, 609,210 Alamos PSUs, 477,018 Alamos RSUs (only 43,830 of which can be settled through the issuance of Alamos Shares) and 445,745 Alamos DSUs (only 305,863 of which can be settled through the issuance of Alamos Shares) representing approximately 1.97% of the Alamos Shares (on a fully diluted basis) as of September 8, 2017 (being the last trading day prior to the announcement of the entering into of the Arrangement Agreement). CERTAIN CANADIAN FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS FOR RICHMONT SHAREHOLDERS The following summary describes the principal Canadian federal income tax considerations under the Tax Act of the Arrangement that apply to a beneficial owner of Richmont Shares who, at all relevant times, for purposes of the Tax Act: (i) deals at arm’s length with Richmont and Alamos; (ii) is not affiliated with Richmont or Alamos; and (iii) holds Richmont Shares, and will hold the Alamos Shares received upon the Arrangement, as capital property (a “Holder”). This summary addresses only Holders. Richmont Shares will generally be considered to be capital property to a Holder unless such Richmont Shares are held by the Holder in the course of carrying on a business of buying and selling securities or were acquired in one or more transactions considered to be an adventure or concern in the nature of trade. This summary does not apply to a beneficial owner: (i) that is a “specified financial institution” for the purposes of the Tax Act; (ii) that is a “financial institution” for the purposes of the mark-to-market rules in the Tax Act; (iii) an interest in which is a “tax shelter investment” for the purposes of the Tax Act; (iv) who makes or has made a functional currency reporting election for the purposes of the Tax Act; (v) that is a foreign affiliate, as defined in the Tax Act, of a taxpayer resident in Canada; or (vi) that has entered into or will enter into a “derivative forward agreement”, as defined in the Tax Act, in respect of the Richmont Shares or Alamos Shares. In addition, this summary does not address the tax considerations for holders of Richmont Options. Such beneficial owners and holders of Richmont Options should consult their own tax advisors. This summary is based on the current provisions of the Tax Act and the regulations thereunder, and an understanding of the current administrative policies and assessing practices of the CRA published in writing prior to the date hereof. This summary takes into account all specific proposals to amend the Tax Act and the regulations thereunder publicly announced by or on behalf of the Minister of Finance (Canada) prior to the date hereof (the “Proposed Amendments”) and assumes that all Proposed Amendments will be enacted in the form proposed. However, no assurances can be given that the Proposed Amendments will be enacted as proposed, or at all. This summary does not otherwise take into account or anticipate any changes in law whether by legislative, regulatory, administrative or judicial action or administrative policy or assessing practice nor does it take into account tax legislation or considerations of any province, territory or foreign jurisdiction, which may differ from those discussed herein. On July 18, 2017, the Minister of Finance (Canada) released a consultation paper seeking input on possible approaches to address certain perceived tax advantages of earning passive investment income through a private corporation. No specific amendments to the Tax Act were proposed in connection with this announcement and the potential implications of this announcement are not discussed in this summary. Holders that are private corporations should consult their own tax advisors. This summary is of a general nature only and is not, and is not intended to be, legal or tax advice to any particular Richmont Shareholder. This summary is not exhaustive of all Canadian federal income tax considerations. Consequently, Holders are urged to consult their own tax advisors to determine the particular tax effects to them of the Arrangement and any other consequences to them in connection with the Arrangement under Canadian federal, provincial, territorial or local tax laws and under foreign tax laws, having regard to their own particular circumstances.

- 72 - Holders Resident in Canada This portion of the summary only applies to a Holder who, at all relevant times, for purposes of the Tax Act: (i) is, or is deemed to be, resident in Canada; and (ii) is not exempt from tax under Part I of the Tax Act (a “Resident Holder”). Certain Resident Holders whose Richmont Shares or Alamos Shares might not otherwise qualify as capital property may be entitled to have such shares, and all other “Canadian securities” (as defined in the Tax Act) owned by them in the taxation year and any subsequent taxation year, deemed to be capital property by making an irrevocable election in accordance with subsection 39(4) of the Tax Act. Resident Holders considering making such an election should consult their own tax advisors for advice as to whether the election is available or advisable in their own particular circumstances. Exchange of Richmont Shares Pursuant to the Arrangement a Resident Holder, other than a Dissenting Resident Holder, as defined below, will exchange the Resident Holder’s Richmont Shares for Alamos Shares. Such Resident Holder will be deemed to have disposed of such Richmont Shares under a tax-deferred share-for-share exchange under section 85.1 of the Tax Act, unless such holder chooses to recognize a capital gain (or capital loss) as described in the immediately following paragraph. More specifically, the Resident Holder will be deemed to have disposed of the Richmont Shares for proceeds of disposition equal to the adjusted cost base of the Richmont Shares to such Resident Holder, determined immediately before the Effective Time, and the Resident Holder will be deemed to have acquired the Alamos Shares at an aggregate cost equal to such adjusted cost base of the Richmont Shares. This cost will be averaged with the adjusted cost base of all other Alamos Shares held by the Resident Holder as capital property for the purpose of determining the adjusted cost base of each Alamos Share held by the Resident Holder. A Resident Holder who exchanges Richmont Shares for Alamos Shares pursuant to the Arrangement may choose to recognize all of the capital gain (or capital loss) in respect of the exchange by including such capital gain (or capital loss) in computing its income for the taxation year in which the exchange takes place. In such circumstances, the Resident Holder will realize a capital gain (or a capital loss) equal to the amount, if any, by which the fair market value of the Alamos Shares received exceeds (or is less than) the aggregate of the adjusted cost base of the Richmont Shares to the Resident Holder, determined immediately before the Effective Time, and any reasonable costs of disposition. The amount of any capital loss realized by a Resident Shareholder that is a corporation, trust or partnership may be denied in certain cases where such Resident Holder acquired the Richmont Shares in a transaction subject to the stop-loss rules described in the Tax Act. For a description of the tax treatment of capital gains and capital losses, see “Certain Canadian Federal Income Tax Considerations for Richmont Shareholders – Holders Resident in Canada – Taxation of Capital Gains and Capital Losses” below. The cost of the Alamos Shares acquired on the exchange will be equal to the fair market value thereof in these circumstances. This cost will be averaged with the adjusted cost base of all other Alamos Shares held by the holder as capital property for the purpose of determining the adjusted cost base of such Alamos Shares. Dissenting Resident Holders A Resident Holder who exercises Dissent Rights in respect of the Arrangement (a “Dissenting Resident Holder”) and who disposes of Richmont Shares in consideration for a cash payment from Richmont will be deemed to have received a dividend from Richmont equal to the amount by which the cash payment (other than any portion of the payment that is interest awarded by a court) exceeds the paid-up capital (computed for the purpose of the Tax Act) in respect of the Dissenting Resident Holder’s Richmont Shares. The balance of the payment (equal to the paid-up capital of the Dissenting Resident Holder’s Richmont Shares) will be treated as proceeds of disposition. The Dissenting Resident Holder will also realize a capital gain (or capital loss) to the extent that the proceeds of disposition, net of any reasonable costs of disposition, exceed (or are less than) the adjusted cost base of the Dissenting Resident Holder’s Richmont Shares. In certain circumstances, the full payment received by a Dissenting Resident Holder that is a corporation resident in Canada may be treated under the Tax Act as proceeds of disposition. Any deemed dividend received by a Dissenting Resident Holder and any capital gain or capital loss realized by the Dissenting Resident Holder, will be treated in the same manner as described under the headings “Certain Canadian Federal Income Tax Considerations for Richmont Shareholders – Holders Resident in Canada – Dividends on

- 73 - Alamos Shares” and “Certain Canadian Federal Income Tax Considerations for Richmont Shareholders – Holders Resident in Canada – Taxation of Capital Gains and Capital Losses” below. A Dissenting Resident Holder will be required to include in computing its income any interest awarded by a court in connection with the Arrangement. In addition, a Dissenting Resident Holder that, throughout its relevant taxation year, is a “Canadian-controlled private corporation” (as defined in the Tax Act) may be liable to pay a refundable tax on its “aggregate investment income” (as defined in the Tax Act), including interest income. Dissenting Resident Holders should consult their own tax advisors with respect to the Canadian federal income tax consequences of exercising their Dissent Rights. Dividends on Alamos Shares A Resident Holder who is an individual will be required to include in income any dividends received or deemed to be received on the Resident Holder’s Alamos Shares and will be subject to the gross-up and dividend tax credit rules that apply to taxable dividends received from taxable Canadian corporations, including the enhanced gross-up and dividend tax credit rules that apply to any dividends designated by Alamos as “eligible dividends”, as defined in the Tax Act. There may be limitations on the ability of Alamos to designate dividends as eligible dividends. A Resident Holder that is a corporation will be required to include in income any dividend received or deemed to be received on the Resident Holder’s Alamos Shares, but generally will be entitled to deduct an equivalent amount in computing taxable income. In certain circumstances, subsection 55(2) of the Tax Act will treat a taxable dividend received by a Resident Holder that is a corporation as proceeds of a disposition or a capital gain. Resident Holders that are corporations should consult their own tax advisors having regard to their own circumstances. A “private corporation” or a “subject corporation” (as defined in the Tax Act) may be liable under Part IV of the Tax Act to pay a refundable tax on any dividend that it receives or is deemed to receive on Alamos Shares to the extent that the dividend is deductible in computing the corporation’s taxable income. Taxable dividends received by an individual (and certain trusts) may give rise to alternative minimum tax under the Tax Act. Disposing of Alamos Shares Generally on a disposition or deemed disposition of an Alamos Share (other than in a tax-deferred transaction), a Resident Holder will realize a capital gain (or a capital loss) equal to the amount, if any, by which the proceeds of disposition exceed (or are less than) the aggregate of the adjusted cost base to the Resident Holder of the Alamos Share immediately before the disposition or deemed disposition and any reasonable costs of disposition. For a description of the tax treatment of capital gains and capital losses, see “Certain Canadian Federal Income Tax Considerations for Richmont Shareholders – Holders Resident in Canada – Taxation of Capital Gains and Capital Losses” below. Taxation of Capital Gains and Capital Losses Generally, one-half of any capital gain (a “taxable capital gain”) realized by a Resident Holder in a taxation year must be included in the Resident Holder’s income for the year, and one-half of any capital loss (an “allowable capital loss”) realized by a Resident Holder in a taxation year must be deducted from taxable capital gains realized by the Resident Holder in that year (subject to and in accordance with rules contained in the Tax Act). Allowable capital losses for a taxation year in excess of taxable capital gains realized in a taxation year generally may be carried back and deducted in any of the three preceding taxation years or carried forward and deducted in any subsequent taxation year against net taxable capital gains realized in such years, to the extent and under the circumstances described in the Tax Act. A Resident Holder that throughout the relevant taxation year, is a “Canadian-controlled private corporation” (as defined in the Tax Act) may be liable to pay a refundable tax on its “aggregate investment income” (as defined in the Tax Act), including amounts in respect of net taxable capital gains. The amount of any capital loss realized by a Resident Holder that is a corporation on the disposition of a share may be reduced by the amount of certain dividends previously received (or deemed to be received) by the Resident

- 74 - Holder on such share (or another share where the share has been acquired in exchange for such other share) to the extent and under circumstances prescribed by the Tax Act. Similar rules may apply where a trust or partnership of which a corporation, trust or partnership is a member or beneficiary that owns any such share. Resident Holders to whom these rules may be relevant should consult their own tax advisors. Capital gains realized by an individual (and certain trusts) may give rise to a liability for alternative minimum tax as calculated under the detailed rules set out in the Tax Act. Eligibility for Investment The Alamos Shares will be qualified investments under the Tax Act for trusts governed by a registered retirement savings plan (“RRSP”), a registered retirement income fund (“RRIF”), a deferred profit sharing plan, a registered education savings plan (“RESP”), a registered disability savings plan (“RDSP”) or a tax-free savings account (“TFSA”) (each as defined in the Tax Act), at any particular time, provided that, at that time, the Alamos Shares are listed on a “designated stock exchange” (as defined in the Tax Act, which currently includes the TSX and NYSE). Notwithstanding that Alamos Shares may be qualified investments for a trust governed by a RRSP, RRIF, RESP, RDSP or TFSA, the annuitant under such RRSP or RRIF, the subscriber of such RESP, or the holder of such RDSP or TFSA, will be subject to a penalty tax on such shares if such shares are a “prohibited investment” (as defined in subsection 207.01(1) of the Tax Act). The Alamos Shares will generally not be a “prohibited investment” for a trust governed by a TFSA, RRSP, RESP, RDSP or RRIF provided that (i) the holder of the TFSA or RDSP, the subscriber of such RESP or the annuitant under the RRSP or the RRIF, as the case may be, deals at arm’s length with Alamos for purposes of the Tax Act and does not have a “significant interest” (as defined in subsection 207.01(4) of the Tax Act) in Alamos or (ii) Alamos Shares are “excluded property” (as defined in subsection 207.01(1) of the Tax Act) for the TFSA, RDSP, RESP, RRSP or RRIF. Holders of a TFSA or RDSP, annuitants under an RRSP or RRIF, and subscribers of an RESP who intend to hold Alamos Shares in such plans, should consult their own tax advisors in regards to the application of these rules in their particular circumstances. Holders Not Resident in Canada This portion of the summary only applies to a Holder who, at all relevant times, for the purposes of the application of the Tax Act, is not, and is not deemed to be, resident in Canada and does not use or hold, and is not deemed to use or hold, the Richmont Shares or Alamos Shares in a business carried on in Canada (a “Non-Resident Holder”). Special rules, which are not discussed in this summary, may apply to certain holders that are insurers carrying on an insurance business in Canada and elsewhere or an “authorized foreign bank” (as defined in the Tax Act). Exchange of Richmont Shares Richmont Shares held by Non-Resident Holders, other than Dissenting Non-Resident Holders, as defined below, will be exchanged for Alamos Shares as part of the Arrangement. Such exchange will occur on a tax-deferred basis, unless the Non-Resident Holder chooses to recognize a capital gain or capital loss as described in the following paragraph. A Non-Resident Holder will not be subject to tax under the Tax Act on any capital gain realized on a disposition or deemed disposition of a Richmont Share, unless (i) the Richmont Share is “taxable Canadian property” of the Non- Resident Holder for purposes of the Tax Act; and (ii) the Non-Resident Holder is not entitled to relief under an applicable income tax convention between Canada and the country in which the Non-Resident Holder is resident. Generally, a Richmont Share will not constitute taxable Canadian property of a Non-Resident Holder at the time of disposition provided that such share is listed on a “designated stock exchange” (as defined in the Tax Act, which currently includes the TSX and NYSE) at that time, unless at any time during the 60-month period immediately preceding that time: (a) one or any combination of the Non-Resident Holder, persons with whom the Non-Resident Holder does not deal at arm’s length, a partnership in which the Non-Resident Holder or a non-arm’s length person holds a membership interest directly or indirectly through one or more partnerships owned 25% or more of the issued shares of any class or series of the capital stock of Richmont, and (b) more than 50% of the fair market value of such share was derived directly or indirectly from one or any combination of real or immovable property situated in Canada, “Canadian resource property” (as defined in the Tax Act), “timber resource property” (as defined in the

- 75 - Tax Act), and options in respect of, or interests in, or civil law rights in, any such properties (whether or not such property exists). In the event the Richmont Shares are “taxable Canadian property” of the Non-Resident Holder and the Non-Resident Holder chooses to recognize a capital gain (or capital loss), the consequences to such Non- Resident Holder will be the same as described above in the second paragraph under the heading “Certain Canadian Federal Income Tax Considerations for Richmont Shareholders – Holders Resident in Canada – Exchange of Richmont Shares”. Non-Resident Holders who dispose of Richmont Shares that are or are deemed to be “taxable Canadian property” (as defined in the Tax Act) should consult their own tax advisors concerning the Canadian income tax consequences of the disposition and the potential requirement to file a Canadian income tax return depending on their particular circumstances. Dissenting Non-Resident Holders A Non-Resident Holder who exercises Dissent Rights in respect of the Arrangement (a “Dissenting Non-Resident Holder”) and disposes of Richmont Shares to Richmont in consideration for cash payment from Richmont will realize a dividend and capital gain or loss in the same manner as discussed above under “Certain Canadian Federal Income Tax Considerations for Richmont Shareholders – Holders Resident in Canada – Dissenting Resident Holders”. Any deemed dividend received by a Dissenting Non-Resident Holder will be subject to Canadian withholding tax as described below under the heading “Certain Canadian Federal Income Tax Considerations for Richmont Shareholders – Holders Not Resident in Canada – Dividends on Alamos Shares”. A Dissenting Non-Resident Holder will generally not be subject to tax under the Tax Act in respect of any capital gain realized on a disposition of Richmont Shares pursuant to the exercise of their Dissent Rights unless such Richmont Shares are considered to be “taxable Canadian property”, as discussed above, of such Dissenting Non- Resident Holder that is not exempt from tax under the Tax Act and the Non-Resident Holder is not entitled to relief under an applicable income tax convention between Canada and the country in which the Dissenting Non-Resident Holder is resident. Dissenting Non-Resident Holders whose Richmont Shares may constitute “taxable Canadian property” should consult their own tax advisors. Where a Dissenting Non-Resident Holder receives interest in connection with the exercise of Dissent Rights in respect of the Arrangement, the interest will generally not be subject to Canadian withholding tax under the Tax Act unless such interest is considered to be “participating debt interest” (as defined in the Tax Act). Dividends on Alamos Shares Dividends paid or credited, or deemed to be paid or credited, on a Non-Resident Holder’s Alamos Shares will be subject to withholding tax under the Tax Act at a rate of 25% unless the rate is reduced under the provisions of an applicable income tax convention. In the case of a beneficial owner of dividends who is a resident of the United States for purposes of the Canada-US Tax Convention (1980) (the “Canada-U.S. Treaty”) and who is entitled to full benefits of that treaty, the rate of withholding will generally be reduced to 15% (or 5% in the case of a company beneficially owning at least 10% of Alamos’ voting shares). Non-Resident Holders should consult their own tax advisors in this regard. Disposing of Alamos Shares A Non-Resident Holder will not be subject to tax under the Tax Act on any capital gain realized on a disposition or deemed disposition of an Alamos Share, unless (i) the Alamos Share is “taxable Canadian property” of the Non- Resident Holder for purposes of the Tax Act; and (ii) the Non-Resident Holder is not entitled to relief under an applicable income tax convention between Canada and the country in which the Non-Resident Holder is resident. Generally, an Alamos Share will not constitute taxable Canadian property of a Non-Resident Holder at the time of disposition provided that such share is listed on a “designated stock exchange” (as defined in the Tax Act, which currently includes the TSX and NYSE) at that time, unless at any time during the 60-month period immediately preceding that time: (a) one or any combination of the Non-Resident Holder, persons with whom the Non-Resident Holder does not deal at arm’s length, a partnership in which the Non-Resident Holder or a non-arm’s length person holds a membership interest directly or indirectly through one or more partnerships owned 25% or more of the

- 76 - issued shares of any class or series of the capital stock of Alamos and (b) more than 50% of the fair market value of such share was derived directly or indirectly from one or any combination of real or immovable property situated in Canada, “Canadian resource property” (as defined in the Tax Act), “timber resource property” (as defined in the Tax Act), and options in respect of, or interests in, or civil law rights in, any such properties (whether or not such property exists). In addition, where a Non-Resident Holder acquires Alamos Shares in exchange for Richmont Shares that are “taxable Canadian property”, the Alamos Shares will be deemed to be “taxable Canadian property” for the 60-month period that commences on the Effective Date. Non-Resident Holders who dispose of Alamos Shares that are “taxable Canadian property” should consult their own tax advisors with respect to the Canadian income tax consequences of the disposition and the potential requirement to file a Canadian income tax return in respect of the disposition depending on their particular circumstances. CERTAIN UNITED STATES FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS FOR RICHMONT SHAREHOLDERS The following discussion summarizes certain U.S. federal income tax considerations generally applicable to U.S. Holders and Non-U.S. Holders (each as defined below) relating to the Arrangement and to the ownership and disposition of Alamos Shares received pursuant to the Arrangement. This summary is based upon the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “U.S. Tax Code”), the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder (the “Treasury Regulations”), judicial authorities, the Canada-U.S. Treaty, published positions of the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”), and other applicable authorities, all as in effect on the date hereof. Any of the authorities on which this summary is based could be subject to differing interpretations and could be changed in a material and adverse manner at any time, and any such change could be applied on a retroactive basis. There can be no assurance that the IRS will not challenge any of the tax considerations described in this summary, and neither Richmont nor Alamos has obtained, or intends to obtain, a ruling from the IRS or an opinion from legal counsel with respect to the U.S. federal income tax considerations discussed herein. This summary addresses only certain considerations arising under U.S. federal income tax law, and it does not address any other federal tax considerations (such as estate or gift taxation) or any tax considerations arising under the laws of any state, locality or non-U.S. taxing jurisdiction. This summary does not address the U.S. federal income tax consequences of transactions effected prior or subsequent to, or concurrently with the Arrangement (whether or not any such transactions are undertaken in connection with the Arrangement), including, without limitation, the following:  any conversion into Richmont Shares, Alamos Shares or cash of any notes, debentures or other debt instruments;  any vesting, conversion, assumption, disposition, exercise, exchange, or other transaction involving restricted share units, deferred share units, or any rights to acquire Richmont Shares or Alamos Shares, including the Richmont Options or Alamos Replacement Options; and  any transaction, other than the Arrangement, in which Richmont Shares, Alamos Shares or cash are acquired. This summary is of a general nature only and does not address all of the U.S. federal income tax considerations that may be relevant to a U.S. Holder or Non-U.S. Holder in light of such U.S. Holder’s or Non-U.S. Holder’s circumstances. In particular, this discussion applies only to a U.S. Holder or Non-U.S. Holder that holds Richmont Shares and Alamos Shares, as applicable, as “capital assets” (generally, property held for investment purposes), and does not address the special tax rules that may apply to special classes of taxpayers, such as:  brokers or dealers in securities;  persons that hold Richmont Shares or Alamos Shares as part of a hedging or integrated financial transaction or a straddle;  U.S. Holders whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar;

- 77 -  U.S. expatriates;  persons that are owners of an interest in a partnership or other pass-through entity that is a holder of Richmont Shares or Alamos Shares;  partnerships or other pass-through entities;  regulated investment companies;  real estate investment trusts;  qualified retirement plans, individual retirement accounts and other tax-deferred accounts;  financial institutions;  insurance companies;  traders that have elected a mark-to-market method of accounting;  tax-exempt organizations (including private foundations);  any person who owns or has owned, directly, indirectly, or by attribution, 10% of more of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock entitled to vote of Richmont;  any person who will own immediately following the Arrangement, directly, indirectly, or by attribution, 5% or more of the total combined voting power or value of the stock of Alamos;  Non-U.S. Holders that are or previously were engaged in the conduct of a trade or business in the United States;  Non-U.S. Holders who are individuals present in the United States for 183 days or more in the taxable year of the Arrangement and who satisfy certain other conditions;  U.S. Holders liable for the alternative minimum tax or the unearned income Medicare tax on net investment income; and  persons who hold Richmont Options or persons who received their Richmont Shares upon the exercise of employee stock options or otherwise as compensation. For purposes of this summary, a “U.S. Holder” means a beneficial owner of Richmont Shares or Alamos Shares, as the case may be, who is, for U.S. federal income tax purposes:  an individual who is a citizen or resident of the United States;  a corporation (or other entity that is classified as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes) created or organized in or under the laws of the United States or any political subdivision thereof;  an estate the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income taxation regardless of its source; or  a trust (i) that has validly elected to be treated as a U.S. person for U.S. federal income tax purposes or (ii) the administration over which a U.S. court can exercise primary supervision and all of the substantial decisions of which one or more U.S. persons have the authority to control. A “Non-U.S. Holder” means any person who is a beneficial owner of Richmont Shares or Alamos Shares, as the case may be, and who is not a U.S. Holder or a partnership or other entity or arrangement that is classified as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes. If a partnership (or other entity or arrangement classified as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes) holds Richmont Shares, the tax treatment of a partner of such partnership generally will depend upon the status of such partner and the activities of the partnership. Partners of

- 78 - partnerships holding Richmont Shares should consult their tax advisors regarding the specific tax consequences of the Arrangement and of the ownership and disposition of Alamos Shares. This summary is of a general nature only and is not, and is not intended to be, legal or tax advice to any particular Richmont Shareholder. This summary is not exhaustive of all U.S. federal income tax considerations. Consequently, beneficial owners of Richmont Shares are urged to consult their tax advisors to determine the particular tax effects to them of the Arrangement and any other consequences to them in connection with the Arrangement under U.S. federal, state, local, and non-U.S. tax laws, having regard to their particular circumstances. U.S. Holders Exchange of Richmont Shares for Alamos Shares Pursuant to the Arrangement Alamos and Richmont intend to treat the Arrangement as a tax-deferred “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the U.S. Tax Code. However, neither Alamos nor Richmont has sought or obtained (or will seek or obtain) either a ruling from the IRS or an opinion of legal counsel regarding the tax consequences of the transactions described herein. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the IRS will not challenge the treatment of the Arrangement as a reorganization or that a U.S. court would uphold the status of the Arrangement as a reorganization in the event of an IRS challenge. U.S. Holders are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding the proper tax reporting of the Arrangement. Assuming that the exchange of Richmont Shares pursuant to the Arrangement qualifies as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the U.S. Tax Code and that a U.S. Holder of Richmont Shares receives Alamos Shares in exchange for Richmont Shares, and subject to the discussion below under “Certain United States Federal Income Tax Considerations for Richmont Shareholders – U.S. Holders – Passive Foreign Investment Company Considerations”, the following consequences for a U.S. Holder of Richmont Shares will result:  No gain or loss will be recognized upon the receipt of Alamos Shares in the exchange, except to the extent of any cash received in lieu of a fractional Alamos Share.  The aggregate tax basis of the Alamos Shares that a U.S. Holder of Richmont Shares receives in exchange for its Richmont Shares, including fractional shares for which cash is ultimately received, will be the same as the aggregate tax basis of its Richmont Shares exchanged, decreased by the amount of cash received by such U.S. Holder in lieu of a fractional Alamos Share and increased by the amount of gain (if any) recognized by such U.S. Holder in the Arrangement.  The holding period for Alamos Shares received in the Arrangement will include the U.S. Holder’s holding period for the Richmont Shares surrendered pursuant to the Arrangement. Exercise of Dissent Rights Pursuant to the Arrangement A U.S. Holder of Richmont Shares who exercises Dissent Rights in the Arrangement and is paid cash in exchange for all of its Richmont Shares generally will recognize gain or loss in an amount equal to the difference, if any, between (i) the U.S. dollar value of cash received by such U.S. Holder in exchange for Richmont Shares (other than amounts, if any, that are or are deemed to be interest for U.S. federal income tax purposes, which amounts will be taxed as ordinary income) and (ii) the tax basis of such U.S. Holder in such Richmont Shares surrendered. Subject to the discussion below under “Certain United States Federal Income Tax Considerations for Richmont Shareholders – U.S. Holders – Passive Foreign Investment Company Considerations”, such gain or loss generally will be capital gain or loss and will be long-term capital gain or loss if the U.S. Holder held the Richmont Shares for more than one year. Preferential tax rates apply to long-term capital gains of a U.S. Holder that is an individual, estate, or trust. There are no preferential tax rates for long-term capital gain of a U.S. Holder that is a corporation. Deductions for capital losses are subject to complex limitations under the U.S. Tax Code. Distributions on Alamos Shares Subject to the discussion below under “Certain United States Federal Income Tax Considerations for Richmont Shareholders – U.S. Holders – Passive Foreign Investment Company Considerations”, the gross amount of any distribution on Alamos Shares (without reduction for any Canadian income tax withheld from such distribution)

- 79 - generally will be subject to U.S. federal income tax as dividend income to the extent paid out of Alamos’ current or accumulated earnings and profits, as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles. To the extent that a distribution exceeds the amount of Alamos’ current and accumulated earnings and profits, as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles, it will be treated first as a tax-free return of capital, causing a reduction in the U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in Alamos Shares held by such U.S. Holder (thereby increasing the amount of gain, or decreasing the amount of loss, to be recognized by such U.S. Holder upon a subsequent disposition of Alamos Shares), and any amount that exceeds the U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis will be treated as capital gain recognized on a sale, exchange, or other taxable disposition of Alamos Shares (as discussed below). However, Alamos does not intend to calculate its earnings and profits under U.S. federal income tax principles. Accordingly, U.S. Holders should expect that distributions will be reported in their entirety as dividends for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Dividends received by individuals and other non-corporate U.S. Holders on Alamos Shares generally will be subject to tax at preferential rates applicable to long-term capital gains, provided that (i) such holders meet certain holding period and other requirements, (ii) Alamos is not treated as a PFIC for the taxable year in which the dividend is paid or for the preceding taxable year, and (iii) either (x) Alamos is eligible for the benefits of a comprehensive income tax treaty with the United States or (y) the Alamos Shares are readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States. Alamos believes that it is eligible for such treaty benefits, and U.S. Treasury guidance indicates that the Alamos Shares will be readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States, although there can be no assurance that the Alamos Shares will be so tradable in future years. Dividends on Alamos Shares will not be eligible for the dividends-received deduction allowed to corporations in respect of dividends received from other U.S. corporations. U.S. Holders are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding the application of the relevant rules to their particular circumstances. As discussed above under “Certain Canadian Federal Income Tax Considerations for Richmont Shareholders – Holders Not Resident in Canada – Dividends on Alamos Shares”, Canadian withholding tax on dividend distributions paid by Alamos to a U.S. Holder may be reduced to 15% pursuant to the Canada-U.S. Treaty in the case of a U.S. Holder eligible for benefits under such treaty. Any such Canadian tax withheld generally will be treated as a foreign income tax eligible for credit against a U.S. Holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability (or, at a U.S. Holder’s election, may, in certain circumstances, be deducted in computing taxable income). Dividends paid on Alamos Shares will be treated as foreign-source income, and generally will be treated as “passive category income” for U.S. foreign tax credit purposes. Complex limitations apply to the amount of non-U.S. taxes that may be claimed as a credit by U.S. taxpayers. U.S. Holders are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding the availability of the foreign tax credit under their particular circumstances. Sale or Other Taxable Disposition of Alamos Shares Subject to the discussion below under “Certain United States Federal Income Tax Considerations for Richmont Shareholders – U.S. Holders – Passive Foreign Investment Company Considerations”, a U.S. Holder who sells or otherwise disposes of Alamos Shares received pursuant to the Arrangement in a taxable disposition will recognize a gain or loss equal to the difference, if any, between the U.S. dollar value of the amount realized on such sale or other taxable disposition and the U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in such Alamos Shares. Any such gain or loss generally will be capital gain or loss, and will be long-term capital gain or loss if the U.S. Holder held the Alamos Shares for more than one year at the time of the sale or other taxable disposition. For non-corporate U.S. Holders, long-term capital gains recognized in connection with a sale or other taxable disposition of Alamos Shares generally will be taxed at preferential capital gain rates. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations under the U.S. Tax Code. Any such gain or loss generally will be treated as U.S.-source income for U.S. foreign tax credit purposes. Receipt of Foreign Currency The gross amount of any payment in a currency other than U.S. dollars will be included by each U.S. Holder in income in a U.S. dollar amount calculated by reference to the exchange rate in effect on the day such U.S. Holder actually or constructively receives the payment in accordance with its regular method of accounting for U.S. federal income tax purposes, regardless of whether the payment is in fact converted into U.S. dollars at that time. If the foreign currency is converted into U.S. dollars on the date of the payment, the U.S. Holder should not recognize any foreign currency gain or loss with respect to the receipt of foreign currency. If, instead, the foreign currency is converted at a later date, any currency gain or loss resulting from the conversion of the foreign currency will be

- 80 - treated as U.S.-source ordinary income or loss. U.S. Holders are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of receiving, owning, and disposing of foreign currency. Passive Foreign Investment Company Considerations The tax consequences of the Arrangement to a particular U.S. Holder will depend on whether Richmont was a passive foreign investment company (a “PFIC”) during any taxable year in which the U.S. Holder owned Richmont Shares, and, if so, whether Alamos is a PFIC in the taxable year that includes the Arrangement. In general, a non- U.S. corporation is a PFIC for any taxable year in which either (i) 75% or more of the non-U.S. corporation’s gross income is passive income, or (ii) 50% or more of the average quarterly value of the non-U.S. corporation’s assets produce or are held for the production of passive income. Passive income includes, for example, dividends, interest, certain rents and royalties, and the excess of gains over losses from certain commodities transactions, including transactions involving gold and other precious metals. Net gains from commodities transactions generally are treated as passive income, unless such gains are active business gains from the sale of commodities and substantially all of the corporation’s commodities are stock in trade or inventory, depreciable property used in a trade or business, or supplies regularly used or consumed in a trade or business. For purposes of determining whether a non-U.S. corporation is a PFIC, such non-U.S. corporation will be treated as holding its proportionate share of the assets and receiving directly its proportionate share of the income of any other corporation in which it owns, directly or indirectly, more than 25 percent (by value) of the stock. PFIC Status of Richmont If Richmont were a PFIC during any taxable year in which a U.S. Holder holds or held Richmont Shares, and if Alamos were not a PFIC in the taxable year that includes the Arrangement, then the U.S. Holder might be required to recognize gain, if any, on the exchange of Richmont Shares for Alamos Shares pursuant to the Arrangement, whether or not the Arrangement qualifies as a reorganization under Section 368(a) of the U.S. Tax Code. If gain were required to be recognized, then, in general, the amount of U.S. federal income tax on gain recognized by a U.S. Holder upon the consummation of the Arrangement would be increased by an interest charge to compensate for tax deferral, and the amount of income tax, before the imposition of the interest charge, would be calculated as if such gain was earned rateably over the period the U.S. Holder held its Richmont Shares, and would be subject to U.S. federal income tax at the highest rate applicable to ordinary income for the relevant taxable years, regardless of the tax rate otherwise applicable to the U.S. Holder, subject to certain exceptions. If, however, Richmont were a PFIC during any taxable year in which a U.S. Holder holds or held Richmont Shares, and Alamos were a PFIC for its taxable year that includes the day following the consummation of the Arrangement, then a U.S. Holder should not be subject to the adverse consequences described above, based on proposed Treasury Regulations under Section 1291(f) of the U.S. Tax Code. Different rules generally would apply to any U.S. Holder that has made a “qualified electing fund” election or “mark to market” election, if available, with respect to its Richmont Shares. Richmont does not believe that it was a PFIC for the taxable year ending December 31, 2016, and, based on the nature of its current assets, income, and activities, Richmont does not expect to be a PFIC for the taxable year ending December 31, 2017. However, the determination of PFIC status for any year is fact-specific, based on the types of income earned and the types and values of assets from time to time, all of which are subject to change. Moreover, the PFIC determination depends upon the application of complex U.S. federal income tax rules that are subject to differing interpretations. As a result, there can be no assurance that Richmont was not and will not be a PFIC for any taxable year during which a U.S. Holder holds or has held Richmont Shares. U.S. Holders are urged to consult their tax advisors with respect to Richmont’s status under the PFIC rules and the potential application of the PFIC rules to their particular situation. PFIC Status of Alamos If Alamos were classified as a PFIC for any taxable year during which a U.S. Holder held Alamos Shares received pursuant to the Arrangement, then gain recognized by such U.S. Holder upon the sale or other taxable disposition of the Alamos Shares would be allocated rateably over the U.S. Holder’s holding period for the Alamos Shares. The amounts allocated to the taxable year of the sale or other taxable disposition and to any year before Alamos became a PFIC would be taxed as ordinary income. The amount allocated to each other taxable year would be subject to tax at the highest rate in effect for that taxable year for individuals or corporations, as appropriate, and an interest charge would be imposed on the tax on such amount. Further, to the extent that any distribution received by a U.S. Holder

- 81 - during a taxable year on its Alamos Shares were to exceed 125% of the average of the annual distributions on the Alamos Shares received during the preceding three years or the U.S. Holder’s holding period, whichever is shorter, such “excess distribution” would be subject to taxation in the same manner as gain, described immediately above. Certain elections (such as a mark-to-market election) might be available to U.S. Holders to mitigate some of the adverse tax consequences resulting from PFIC treatment. Alamos does not believe that it was a PFIC for the taxable year ending December 31, 2016, and, based on the nature of its current assets, income, and activities, Alamos does not expect to be a PFIC for the taxable year ending December 31, 2017, or for the foreseeable future. However, the determination of PFIC status for any year is fact- specific, based on the types of income earned and the types and values of assets from time to time, all of which are subject to change. Moreover, the PFIC determination depends upon the application of complex U.S. federal income tax rules that are subject to differing interpretations. As a result, there can be no assurance that Alamos will not be a PFIC for the current or future taxable years. If Alamos is classified as a PFIC in any year during which a U.S. Holder holds Alamos Shares, Alamos generally will continue to be treated as a PFIC as to such U.S. Holder in all succeeding years, whether or not Alamos is classified as a PFIC in such succeeding years under the income or asset tests described above. Subject to certain exceptions, a U.S. Holder who owns Alamos Shares during any taxable year in which Alamos is a PFIC must disclose certain information with respect to such holder’s ownership interest by filing IRS Form 8621. U.S. Holders are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding the consequences of the Arrangement and of the ownership and disposition of Alamos Shares under the PFIC rules, including the potential availability of a mark-to- market election, and the applicability of annual filing requirements. Non-U.S. Holders Exchange of Richmont Shares for Alamos Shares and Exercise of Dissent Rights Pursuant to the Arrangement In general, a Non-U.S. Holder will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on any gain realized upon the exchange of Richmont Shares for Alamos Shares pursuant to the Arrangement or upon the receipt of cash from Richmont as a result of such Non-U.S. Holder’s exercise of Dissent Rights. Ownership and Disposition of Alamos Shares Received Pursuant to the Arrangement In general, a Non-U.S. Holder will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on distributions from Alamos or upon any gain realized upon the sale or other disposition of Alamos Shares. Backup Withholding and Information Reporting U.S. Holders of Richmont Shares may be subject to information reporting and may be subject to backup withholding on any cash payments made in connection with the Arrangement. Payments of distributions on, or the proceeds from a sale or other taxable disposition of, Alamos Shares paid within the United States may be subject to information reporting and may be subject to backup withholding. Payments of distributions on, or the proceeds from the sale or other taxable disposition of, Alamos Shares to or through a foreign office of a broker generally will not be subject to backup withholding, although information reporting may apply to those payments in certain circumstances. Backup withholding generally will not apply, however, to a U.S. Holder who furnishes an IRS Form W-9 (or substitute form) listing a correct taxpayer identification number and certifying that such holder is not subject to backup withholding or who otherwise establishes an exemption from backup withholding. Non-U.S. Holders generally will not be subject to U.S. information reporting or backup withholding. However, such holders may be required to certify non-U.S. status (generally, on an applicable IRS Form W-8) in connection with payments received in the United States or through certain U.S.-related financial intermediaries. Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Any amounts withheld from a payment to a holder under the backup withholding rules may be credited against the holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability, and a holder may obtain a refund of any excess amounts withheld by filing the appropriate claim for refund with the IRS in a timely manner and furnishing any required information.

- 82 - Certain U.S. Holders must report information relating to an interest in “specified foreign financial assets,” including shares issued by a non-U.S. corporation, for any year in which the aggregate value of all specified foreign financial assets exceeds $50,000, subject to certain exceptions (including an exception for shares held in accounts maintained with certain financial institutions). Penalties may be imposed for the failure to disclose such information. U.S. Holders are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding the effect, if any, of these reporting requirements on their ownership and disposition of Alamos Shares received pursuant to the Arrangement. RISK FACTORS Alamos Shareholders and Richmont Shareholders should carefully consider the following risk factors related to the Arrangement. In addition to the risks set out in the documents incorporated by reference in this Circular, the proposed combination of Richmont with Alamos pursuant to the Arrangement is subject to certain risks, including those set out below. Mineral reserve and mineral resource figures pertaining to Richmont’s and Alamos’ properties are only estimates and are subject to revision based on developing information. Information pertaining to Richmont’s and Alamos’ mineral reserves and mineral resources presented in this Circular or incorporated by reference herein are estimates and no assurances can be given as to their accuracy. Such estimates are, in large part, based on interpretations of geological data obtained from drill holes and other sampling techniques. Actual mineralization or formations may be different from those predicted. Mineral reserve and mineral resource estimates are materially dependent on the prevailing price of minerals, including gold, and the cost of recovering and processing minerals at the individual mine sites. Market fluctuations in the price of minerals, including gold, or increases in recovery costs, as well as various short-term operating factors, may cause a mining operation to be unprofitable in any particular accounting period. The estimates of mineral reserves and mineral resources attributable to any specific property of Richmont or Alamos are based on accepted engineering and evaluation principles. The estimated amount of contained minerals in proven and probable mineral reserves does not necessarily represent an estimate of a fair market value of the evaluated properties. The Arrangement is subject to satisfaction or waiver of several conditions. The Arrangement is conditional upon, among other things, approval of the Richmont Arrangement Resolution by Richmont Shareholders, approval of the Alamos Share Issuance Resolution by Alamos Shareholders, TSX and NYSE approval, and Richmont and Alamos having obtained all government or regulatory approvals required by law, policy or practice, including Competition Act Approval. There can be no assurance that any or all such approvals will be obtained. A substantial delay in obtaining satisfactory approvals or the imposition of unfavourable terms or conditions in any government or regulatory approvals could have an adverse effect on the business, financial condition or results of operations of Richmont and Alamos. Alamos has applied to the TSX and the NYSE to list the Alamos Shares issuable under the Arrangement. It is a condition of closing the Arrangement that the TSX and the NYSE shall have conditionally approved the listing of the Alamos Consideration Shares, subject to official notice of issuance and the satisfaction of customary conditions required by such exchanges. The market value of the Alamos Shares that Richmont Shareholders retain following the Arrangement may be less than the value of the Richmont Shares as of the date of the Arrangement Agreement or the dates of the shareholder meetings. The consideration payable to Richmont Shareholders pursuant to the Arrangement is based on a fixed exchange ratio and there will be no adjustment for changes in the market price of Alamos Shares or Richmont Shares prior to the consummation of the Arrangement. Neither of the Parties is permitted to terminate the Arrangement Agreement and abandon the Arrangement solely because of changes in the market price of the Alamos Shares or Richmont Shares. There may be a significant amount of time between the date when Alamos Shareholders and Richmont Shareholders vote at their respective shareholder meetings and the date on which the Arrangement is completed. As a result, the relative or absolute prices of the Alamos Shares or the Richmont Shares may fluctuate significantly between the dates of the Arrangement Agreement, this Circular, the shareholder meetings and completion of the Arrangement.

- 83 - These fluctuations may be caused by, among other factors, changes in the businesses, operations, results and prospects of the companies, market expectations of the likelihood that the Arrangement will be completed and the timing of its completion, the prospects for Alamos’ post-Arrangement operations, the effect of any conditions or restrictions imposed on or proposed with respect to Alamos’ post-Arrangement by governmental authorities and general market and economic conditions. As a result of such fluctuations, historical market prices are not indicative of future market prices or the market value of the Alamos Consideration Shares that Richmont Shareholders will receive on completion of the Arrangement. There can be no assurance that the market value of the Alamos Consideration Shares that Richmont Shareholders will receive on completion of the Arrangement will equal or exceed the market value of the Richmont Shares held by such Richmont Shareholders prior to such time. In addition, there can be no assurance that the trading price of the Alamos Shares will not decline following completion of the Arrangement. The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements are presented for illustrative purposes only and may not be an indication of Alamos’ post-Arrangement financial condition or results of operations following the Arrangement. The pro forma consolidated financial statements contained in this Circular are presented for illustrative purposes only and may not be an indication of Alamos’ post-Arrangement financial condition or results of operations following the Arrangement for several reasons. For example, the pro forma consolidated financial statements have been derived from the historical financial statements of Alamos and Richmont and do not represent a financial forecast or projection and certain assumptions have been made. Such assumptions may not prove to be accurate. Moreover, the pro forma consolidated financial statements do not reflect all costs that are expected to be incurred by Alamos’ post-Arrangement in connection with the Arrangement. For example, the impact of any incremental costs incurred in integrating Alamos and Richmont is not reflected in the pro forma consolidated financial statements. In addition, the assumptions used in preparing the pro forma consolidated financial information may not prove to be accurate, and other factors may affect Alamos’ post-Arrangement financial condition or results of operations following the Arrangement. See “Alamos Upon Completion of the Arrangement – Selected Alamos Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Information” and the unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements of Alamos attached as Appendix K to this Circular. Alamos may be subject to significant capital requirements and operating risks associated with its expanded operations and its expanded portfolio of growth projects. Alamos must generate sufficient internal cash flows through the successful operation of current newly acquired mineral assets and/or be able to utilize available financing sources, to finance its growth and sustain capital requirements. If Alamos does not realize satisfactory prices for the gold and other minerals that it produces, it could be required to raise additional capital through the capital markets and/or incur borrowings to meet its capital requirements. These financing requirements could adversely affect Alamos’ credit ratings and its ability to access the capital markets in the future to meet any external financing requirements Alamos might have. If there are significant delays in when Alamos’ projects are completed and are producing on a commercial and consistent scale, and/or their capital costs were to be significantly higher than estimated, these events could have a significant adverse effect on Alamos’ results of operation, cash flow from operations and financial condition. In addition, Alamos’ mining operations and processing and related infrastructure facilities are subject to risks normally encountered in the mining and metals industry. Such risks include, without limitation, environmental hazards, industrial accidents, labour disputes, changes in laws, technical difficulties or failures, late delivery of supplies or equipment, unusual or unexpected geological formations or pressures, cave-ins, pit-wall failures, rock falls, unanticipated ground, grade or water conditions, flooding, periodic or extended interruptions due to the unavailability of materials and force majeure events. Such risks could result in damage to, or destruction of, mineral properties or producing facilities, personal injury, environmental damage, delays in mining or processing, losses and possible legal liability. Any prolonged downtime or shutdowns at Alamos’ mining or processing operations could materially adversely affect Alamos’ business, results of operations, financial condition and liquidity.

- 84 - Alamos will have operations in a number of jurisdictions. Operations, development and exploration activities carried out by Alamos may be affected to varying degrees by taxes and government regulations relating to such matters as environmental protection, land use, water use, health, safety, labour, restrictions on production, price controls, currency remittance, maintenance of mineral rights, mineral tenure, and expropriation of property. Changes in mining practices or investment policies or shifts in political attitudes may also adversely affect Alamos’ business. Operations may be affected in varying degrees by government regulations with respect to, but not limited to, restrictions on production, price controls, export controls, currency remittance, income taxes, maintenance of claims, environmental legislation, expropriation of property, land use, land claims of local people (including aboriginal land claims), water use and safety. Any changes in the laws relating to mining in the jurisdictions in which Alamos carries on business could materially affect the rights and title to the interests held there by Alamos. No assurance can be given that applicable governments will not revoke or significantly alter the conditions of the applicable exploration and mining Authorizations nor that such exploration and mining Authorizations will not be challenged or impugned by third parties. The effect of any of these factors cannot be accurately predicted. The integration of Richmont and Alamos may not occur as planned. The Arrangement Agreement has been entered into with the expectation that its completion will result in increased gold production, increased earnings and cost savings by taking advantage of operating and other synergies to be realized from the consolidation of Richmont and Alamos and enhanced growth opportunities for Alamos. These anticipated benefits will depend in part on whether Richmont’s and Alamos’ operations can be integrated in an efficient and effective manner. Most operational and strategic decisions and certain staffing decisions with respect to integration have not yet been made. These decisions and the integration of the two companies will present challenges to management, including the integration of systems and personnel of the two companies, unanticipated liabilities, unanticipated costs, and the loss of key employees. The performance of Alamos’ operations after completion of the Arrangement could be adversely affected if Alamos cannot retain key employees to assist in the integration and operation of Richmont and Alamos. As a result of these factors, it is possible that the cost reductions and synergies expected from the combination of Richmont and Alamos will not be realized. In addition, such synergies assume certain realized long-term metals and consumable commodities prices and foreign exchange rates. If actual prices were below such assumed prices, the realization of potential synergies could be adversely effected. Richmont may become liable to pay the Richmont Termination Payment. If the Arrangement Agreement is terminated under certain circumstances, Richmont may be required to pay the Richmont Termination Payment to Alamos. Moreover, if Richmont is required to pay the Richmont Termination Payment under the Arrangement Agreement and Richmont does not enter into or complete an alternative transaction, the financial condition of Richmont may be materially adversely affected. The Richmont Termination Payment may discourage other parties from proposing a significant business transaction with Richmont. Under the Arrangement Agreement, Richmont is required to pay the Richmont Termination Payment in the event that the Arrangement is terminated in certain circumstances related to a possible alternative transaction to the Arrangement. The Richmont Termination Payment may discourage other parties from attempting to propose a significant business transaction with Richmont, even if a different transaction could provide better value to Richmont Shareholders than the Arrangement. Alamos may become liable to pay the Alamos Termination Payment. If the Arrangement Agreement is terminated under certain circumstances, Alamos may be required to pay the Alamos Termination Payment to Richmont. Moreover, if Alamos is required to pay the Alamos Termination Payment under the Arrangement Agreement and Alamos does not enter into or complete an alternative transaction, the financial condition of Alamos may be materially adversely affected.

- 85 - The Alamos Termination Payment provided for under the Arrangement Agreement may discourage other parties from proposing a significant business transaction with Alamos. Under the Arrangement Agreement, Alamos is required to pay the Alamos Termination Payment in the event that the Arrangement is terminated in certain circumstances related to a possible alternative transaction to the Arrangement. The Alamos Termination Payment may discourage other parties from attempting to propose a significant business transaction with Alamos, even if a different transaction could provide better value than the Arrangement to Alamos Shareholders. Following completion of the Arrangement, Alamos may issue additional equity securities. Following completion of the Arrangement, Alamos may issue additional equity securities to finance its activities, including in order to finance acquisitions. If Alamos were to issue Alamos Shares, a holder of such shares may experience dilution in Alamos’ earnings per share. Moreover, as Alamos’ intention to issue additional equity securities becomes publicly known, Alamos’ share price may be materially adversely affected. INFORMATION CONCERNING RICHMONT Richmont currently produces gold from the Island Gold Mine in Ontario and is also advancing development of the significant high-grade resource extension at depth of the Island Gold Mine. On October 2, 2017, Richmont completed a transaction with Monarques, pursuant to which Monarques acquired Richmont’s Québec based assets including the Beaufor Mine, the Camflo Mill and the Wasamac Development Project as well as all other mineral claims, mining leases and mining concessions located in the Province of Québec in exchange for 40,348,203 common shares in the capital of Monarques representing 19.9% of the outstanding Monarques Shares, and the retention of net smelter return royalties on the properties. Of the 40,348,203 Monarques Shares that Richmont received, 5,715,000 Monarques Shares were acquired through the conversion of 5,715,000 subscription receipts of Monarques that Richmont had previously subscribed for at a price of $0.35 per subscription receipt. Richmont has agreed with Monarques that it will not sell the 5,715,000 Monarques Shares acquired through subscription receipts for a period of one year, subject to certain exceptions. For further information regarding Richmont, the development of its business and its business activities, see the Annual Information Form of Richmont dated March 22, 2017 which is incorporated by reference in this Circular. See Appendix I – “Information Concerning Richmont Mines Inc.” for further information on Richmont. INFORMATION CONCERNING ALAMOS Alamos is a mining company engaged in the mining and extraction of, and exploration for, precious metals, primarily gold. Alamos owns and operates the Young-Davidson Mine in Ontario, Canada and the Mulatos Mine and the El Chanate Mine in the state of Sonora, Mexico. In 2016, the Young-Davidson Mine produced 170,000 ounces of gold, the Mulatos Mine produced 154,000 ounces of gold and the El Chanate Mine produced 68,000 ounces of gold for total gold production of 392,000 ounces. Alamos also owns the development-stage Ağı Dağı, Kirazlı and Çamyurt Projects in the Biga district of northwestern Turkey, the Esperanza Project in Morelos State, Mexico, the Quartz Mountain Property in Oregon, USA, and the Lynn Lake Project in Manitoba, Canada. AuRico Gold Inc. amalgamated with the predecessor to Alamos, also named Alamos Gold Inc., under section 182 of the OBCA pursuant to Articles of Arrangement dated July 2, 2015 with the resulting amalgamated company continuing under the name Alamos Gold Inc. Alamos’ principal place of business and registered office is Brookfield Place, 181 Bay Street, Suite 3910, Toronto, Ontario M5J 2T3. Alamos is a reporting issuer in all of the provinces and territories of Canada. The Alamos Shares are listed on the TSX and the NYSE under the symbol “AGI” and the Alamos Warrants are listed and posted for trading on the TSX under the symbols “AGI.WT” and “AGI.WT.A”. On September 8, 2017, the last trading day prior to the announcement that Richmont and Alamos had entered into the Arrangement Agreement, the closing prices of the Alamos Shares on the TSX and NYSE were C$10.25 and $8.45, respectively. See Appendix J – “Information Concerning Alamos Gold Inc.” for further information on Alamos.

- 86 - ALAMOS UPON COMPLETION OF THE ARRANGEMENT Overview On completion of the Arrangement, Alamos will own all of the Richmont Shares and Richmont will be a wholly- owned subsidiary of Alamos. Former Richmont Shareholders will be shareholders of Alamos. Based on the number of Richmont Shares and Alamos Shares outstanding on September 8, 2017, immediately following completion of the Arrangement and assuming all Richmont Options are exchanged for Alamos Replacement Options, on a pro forma basis, former Richmont Shareholders immediately prior to the Effective Time are anticipated to collectively own approximately 23% of the Alamos Shares issued and outstanding immediately following the completion of the Arrangement, and existing Alamos Shareholders immediately prior to the Effective Time are anticipated to collectively own approximately 77% of the Alamos Shares issued and outstanding immediately following the completion of the Arrangement. Following the Arrangement, Alamos will continue to be a corporation existing under the OBCA. The business and operations of Alamos will be consolidated with Richmont’s and the principal executive office of Alamos will be Brookfield Place, 181 Bay Street, Suite 3910, Toronto, Ontario M5J 2T3 immediately following consummation of the Arrangement. See Appendix M - “Summary Comparison of Shareholder Rights Under the QBCA and OBCA” for a summary comparison of certain shareholder rights under the QBCA and the OBCA. Such comparison is a summary only and not exhaustive, and may not address all the differences between the QBCA and OBCA that a Richmont Shareholder may find relevant.

- 90 - Notes: (1) Based on the number of Richmont Shares outstanding as of September 8, 2017, being the last trading day prior to the announcement of the entering into of the Arrangement Agreement, calculated to three decimal places. Richmont Change of Control Payments Pursuant to their respective employment agreements with Richmont, the consummation of the Arrangement and the subsequent termination of employment without cause or resignation for “good reason” may result in change of control payments to the executive officers of Richmont. The executive officers eligible to receive such change of control payments, and the amounts of such payments (which include severance payments related to historical salary and bonus amounts, as well as a pro-rated amount for benefit entitlements) are: Renaud Adams, President and Chief Executive Officer (C$2,091,332), Robert Chausse, Chief Financial Officer (C$1,187,469), Anne Day, Senior Vice- President, Investor Relations (C$627,707), Christian Bourcier, Vice-President, Operations (C$594,147), Steve Burleton, Vice-President, Business Development (C$548,993), Daniel Adam, Vice-President Exploration (C$480,462) and Nicole Veilleux, Vice-President, Finance (C$544,216). The aggregate amounts described above do not include the pro-rata portion of any bonus earned for 2017 that will become payable to such executive officers in connection with any termination without cause or resignation for “good reason”, as the pro-rata portion of the bonuses earned would be payable regardless of the consummation of the Arrangement. Accelerated Vesting of Awards under the Richmont LTIP The Richmont LTIP provides that the Richmont Board may make such provision for the protection of the rights of participants under the Richmont LTIP as the Richmont Board considers appropriate in the circumstances, in its discretion. Such actions may include changing the vesting provisions for awards granted under the Richmont LTIP (which includes Richmont Options and RSUs). On September 3, 2017, the Richmont Board passed resolutions providing that if (i) within 180 days after a change of control, (a) an officer of Richmont is terminated without cause (as determined in accordance with the Richmont LTIP), or (b) resigns for “Good Reason”, all unvested awards held by such officer on the date of such termination or resignation shall automatically vest on such date and remain available for exercise for a period of one year; and (ii) if, within 180 days after a change of control, a member of the Richmont Board as of the date of the resolution ceases to be a director of Richmont, all unvested awards held by such director on the date such director ceases to be a director of Richmont will automatically vest on such date and remain available for exercise for a period of one year. For the purposes of the provisions above, “Good Reason” means the occurrence of any one of the following acts or events without the prior written consent of the officer: (i) the assignment of duties or responsibilities which are materially inconsistent with the officer’s position or responsibilities within Richmont; (ii) a reduction in the officer’s base salary; (iii) the failure by Richmont to continue in effect any short term incentive plan or long term incentive plan in which the officer is participating as at the date of the resolution unless such plans have been replaced by new plans providing the officer with benefits that are comparable, in the aggregate, to the benefits provided in such plans; or (iv) requiring the officer to be based anywhere other than 75 kilometers from the officer’s current principal place of employment in downtown Toronto, Ontario (with the understanding that the officer will be required to travel extensively for business purposes). Insurance and Indemnification of Directors and Officers The Arrangement Agreement provides that Richmont will be entitled to purchase run off directors’ and officers’ liability insurance for a period of six years in favour of its current and former directors and officers from the Effective Date, for a lump sum not to exceed an amount agreed to between Richmont and Alamos. Pursuant to the Arrangement Agreement, Alamos also agreed that it will cause Richmont to honour all rights to indemnification or exculpation now existing in favour of present and former officers and directors of Richmont and its subsidiaries, and acknowledges that such rights, as disclosed, will survive the completion of the Arrangement and will continue in full force and effect for a period of not less than six years from the Effective Date.

The Acquiror has been a publicly traded company since 2003, and is currently listed on the TSX and the NYSE under the symbol "AGI". 9 FAIRNESS METHODOLOGIES In support of the Opinion, Macquarie Capital has performed certain financial analyses with respect to the Company, based on those methodologies and assumptions that Macquarie Capital considered appropriate in the circumstances for the purposes of providing the Opinion. In the context of the Opinion, Macquarie Capital has considered the following principal methodologies (as each such term is defined below): a. Net Asset Value; b. Comparable Companies Trading Analysis; c. Precedent Transactions Analysis; d. Comparable Companies Trading Analysis Adjusted for Control Premium; and e. Premium Paid Analysis. Net Asset Value The Net Asset Value (“NAV”) approach separately considers each mining, exploration and financial asset, for which individual values are estimated through the application of the methodology viewed as most appropriate in the circumstances, net of obligations and liabilities, including reclamation and closure costs. Under the NAV approach, the NPV (as defined below) for the Island Gold Mine produces a total operating asset value, from which the present value of general and administrative expenses as well as the financial assets and liabilities attributable to the Company are added or subtracted. For the NAV analysis, Macquarie Capital relied on a discounted cash flow (“DCF”) analysis whereby it discounted the unlevered, after-tax, future free cash flows of the Island Gold Mine over the life of the asset at a prescribed discount rate to generate a present value (the “NPV”). All forecasts of future free cash flow for the Island Gold Mine were based on Company operating estimates, using spot and consensus pricing. Macquarie Capital also compared the values for the NPV obtained under the DCF analysis with the NPVs from available consensus research analysts for the Island Gold Mine. The NAV approach considers a variety of financial methodologies in the context of individual assets and explicitly addresses the unique characteristics of the Island Gold Mine from a long-term operating and production perspective. The NAV approach also requires that certain assumptions be made to derive the NPV including, among other things, gold pricing, mining operations, capital investment, working capital, and discount rates. As part of the NAV analysis, Macquarie Capital performed a range of sensitivity analyses on a variety of factors. This included calculating a range of estimated share prices for the Company implied by the NAV for the Company on a standalone basis unadjusted for market multiples and utilizing a range of gold prices. Comparable Companies Trading Analysis Macquarie Capital compared public market trading statistics of the Company to corresponding data from selected publicly-traded junior producer gold mining companies that we considered relevant (the “Comparable Companies Trading Analysis”). Macquarie Capital considered the multiples of price to NAV and price to cash flow to be the most relevant metrics for the Company in consideration of the Comparable Companies Trading Analysis. Macquarie Capital examined multiples based on price to NAV and price to cash flow for each of the comparable companies and then applied a range of selected multiples F-7

Macquarie Capital Markets Canada Ltd. to the corresponding data of the Company to calculate an implied equity value of the Company. The Comparable Companies Trading Analysis implied a price to NAV range of 0.6x to 0.8x as well as a price to cash flow range of 4.7x to 5.7x. Precedent Transactions Analysis The precedent transactions analysis considers transaction multiples in the context of the purchase or sale of a public company or assets. Macquarie Capital reviewed publicly available information in connection with 16 transactions involving producing gold mining companies and producing gold mining assets based in the Americas and Australasia that we considered relevant (the “Precedent Transactions Analysis”). Macquarie Capital considered the multiples of price to NAV and price to cash flow to be the most relevant metrics for the Company in consideration of precedent transactions. The Precedent Transactions Analysis implied a price to NAV range of 1.1x to 1.5x as well as a price to cash flow range of 5.0x to 8.3x. Comparable Companies Trading Analysis Adjusted for Control Premium Macquarie Capital utilized the Comparable Companies Trading Analysis (as described above). Macquarie Capital examined multiples based on price to NAV and price to cash flow for each of the comparable companies and then applied a range of selected multiples to the corresponding data of the Company to calculate an implied equity value of the Company, to which Macquarie Capital added a change of control premium of 30% (the “Comparable Companies Trading Analysis Adjusted for Control Premium”). The Comparable Companies Trading Analysis adjusted for a change of control premium implied a price to NAV range of 0.8x to 1.0x as well as a price to cash flow range of 6.1x to 7.4x. Premium Paid Analysis Macquarie Capital compared the premiums represented by the consideration, calculated with reference to the 20-day VWAP of the Company’s and Acquiror’s respective share prices on the TSX as at September 8, 2017 (the trading day preceding the date of announcement of the Arrangement Agreement) as well as the closing price of the Shares on the TSX as of September 8, 2017, being approximately 32% and 22% respectively, to premiums paid for shares of target companies in select Canadian change of control transactions (the “Precedent Premiums”) considered by Macquarie Capital to be relevant (the “Premium Paid Analysis”). The mean premium to the 20-day VWAP and the mean premium to the one day unaffected share price observed with respect to the Precedent Premiums were approximately 30% and 23%, respectively. 10 FAIRNESS CONSIDERATIONS The assessment of fairness of the consideration, from a financial point of view, must be determined in the context of the particular transaction. Macquarie Capital based its conclusion in the Opinion upon a number of quantitative and qualitative factors including, but not limited to: a) the consideration payable for each Share pursuant to the Arrangement compares favourably with the financial range derived from our analyses using the Comparable Companies Trading Analysis; b) the consideration payable for each Share pursuant to the Arrangement compares favourably with the financial range derived from our analyses using the Precedent Transactions Analysis; F-8

Macquarie Capital Markets Canada Ltd. c) the consideration payable for each Share pursuant to the Arrangement compares favourably with the financial range derived from our analyses using the Comparable Companies Trading Analysis Adjusted for Control Premium; d) the consideration payable for each Share pursuant to the Arrangement represents premiums in line with Precedent Premiums; e) other factors or analyses, which we have judged, based on our experience in rendering such opinions, to be relevant. Macquarie Capital did not, in considering the fairness of the consideration to be received pursuant to the Arrangement, from a financial point of view, assess any income tax consequences that any particular Shareholder may face in connection with the Arrangement. 11 ASSUMPTIONS AND LIMITATIONS We have relied upon and have assumed the completeness, accuracy and fair presentation of all financial and other information, data, documents, materials, advice, opinions and representations obtained by us, including information relating to the Company and the Acquiror provided to us by or on behalf of the Company and the Acquiror and their respective affiliates, disclosed in the public record or otherwise pursuant to the Engagement Agreement, and this Opinion is conditional upon such completeness, accuracy, and fairness. We have not attempted to verify independently the accuracy or completeness of any such information, data, advice, opinions or representations. Senior officers of the Company have represented to Macquarie Capital, in a certificate dated as at the date hereof, among other things, that to the best of their knowledge after due inquiry, with the exception of certain forecasts, projections or estimates, (i) the information, data, opinions, representations and other materials (oral or written) (collectively referred to as the “Information”) provided to Macquarie Capital by or on behalf of the Company was at the dates the Information was provided and is at the date hereof true, complete and correct and not misleading in light of the circumstances under which they were made or presented and did not and does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the Information not misleading in light of the circumstances under which the Information was provided; and (ii) since the dates on which the Information was provided, there has been no material change (as such term is defined in the Securities Act (Ontario) or new material fact, financial or otherwise, relating to the Arrangement, the financial condition, assets, liabilities (contingent or otherwise), business, affairs, operations or prospects of the Company or the Acquiror or any of their respective subsidiaries, associates or affiliates or any change in any material fact or in any material element of any of the Information, or new material fact, any of which is of a nature as to render any portion of the Information untrue or misleading in any material respect or which could reasonably be expected to have a material effect on this Opinion. We have also assumed that the transaction process undertaken by the Company was appropriate. With respect to the operating and financial projections of the Company which were furnished to us, we have assumed that such projections have been reasonably prepared by the Company on bases reflecting the best currently available estimates and good faith judgments by management of the Company of the future competitive, operating and regulatory environments and related financial performance of the Company. We express no view as to any such financial projections or the assumptions on which any of them are based. For purposes of rendering this Opinion, we have assumed that the representations and warranties of each party contained in the Arrangement Agreement are true and correct, that each party will perform all of the covenants and agreements required to be performed F-9

Macquarie Capital Markets Canada Ltd. by it under the Arrangement Agreement without waiver or amendment. The Arrangement is subject to a number of conditions outside the control of any party involved in the Arrangement and Macquarie Capital has assumed all conditions precedent to the completion of the Arrangement can be satisfied in due course and all consents, permissions, exemptions or orders of relevant regulatory authorities will be obtained, without adverse conditions or qualification. In rendering this Opinion, we express no view as to the likelihood that the conditions respecting the Arrangement will be satisfied or waived or that the Arrangement will be implemented within the time frame indicated in the Circular. In addition, we have assumed that neither the Company nor the Acquiror will incur any material liability or obligation, or lose any material rights, as a result of completion of the Arrangement and that the procedures being followed to implement the Arrangement are valid and effective, and in accordance with applicable laws and that the disclosure of the Company, the Acquiror and the Arrangement in any disclosure documents will be accurate and will comply with the requirements of applicable laws. This Opinion is rendered on the basis of market, economic, financial and general business and other conditions prevailing as at the date hereof, and the Information made available to Macquarie Capital as at the date hereof. In rendering this Opinion, Macquarie Capital has assumed that there are no undisclosed material facts relating to the Company or the Acquiror, or their respective businesses, operations, capital or future prospects. Any changes therein may affect this Opinion and, although we reserve the right to change, withdraw or supplement this Opinion in such event or in the event that subsequent developments affect this Opinion, we disclaim any obligation to advise any person of any change that may come to our attention or to update, revise or reaffirm this Opinion after the date hereof. In its analyses and in connection with the preparation of this Opinion, Macquarie Capital made numerous assumptions with respect to industry performance, general business, market and economic conditions and other matters, many of which are beyond the control of any party involved in the Arrangement. While in the opinion of Macquarie Capital, our assumptions used in preparing this Opinion are reasonable in the current circumstances, some or all of these assumptions may prove to be incorrect. Macquarie Capital believes that the analyses and factors considered in arriving at this Opinion must be considered as a whole and are not amenable to partial analyses or summary description and that selecting portions of the analyses and the factors considered, without considering all factors and analyses together, could create a misleading view of the process employed and the conclusions reached. Any attempt to do so could lead to undue emphasis on any particular factor or analysis. In arriving at this Opinion, Macquarie Capital has not attributed any particular weight to any specific analyses or factor but rather based this Opinion on a number of qualitative and quantitative factors deemed appropriate by Macquarie Capital based on Macquarie Capital’s experience in rendering such opinions. Macquarie Capital has not been asked to pass upon, and expresses no opinion with respect to, any matter other than whether, as of the date hereof, the consideration to be received by the Shareholders pursuant to the Arrangement is fair, from a financial point of view, to the Shareholders. Macquarie Capital has not been engaged to prepare, and has not prepared, a valuation or appraisal of the Company or the Acquiror or any of their respective assets, securities or liabilities (contingent or otherwise), nor have we been furnished with any such valuations appraisals, nor have we evaluated the solvency or fair value of the F-10

Macquarie Capital Markets Canada Ltd. Company or the Acquiror under any applicable laws relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or similar matters, and this Opinion should not be construed as such. Furthermore, this Opinion is not, and should not be construed as, advice as to the price at which the Shares or any Acquiror Shares received in exchange therefor may trade at any future date (whether before or after the completion of the Arrangement). In addition, this Opinion does not address the overall fairness of the Arrangement to the holders of any other class of securities (only the fairness of the consideration to be received by the Shareholders as expressly set out in the Opinion), creditors or other constituencies of the Company, or the fairness of the amount or nature of any compensation to be paid or payable to any of the officers, directors, consultants or employees of the Company in their capacities as such and in connection with the Arrangement. This Opinion does not address the relative merits of the Arrangement as compared to other business or financial strategies that might be available to the Company or any other party to the Arrangement, nor does it address the underlying business decision of the Company, or any other party to the Arrangement, to engage in the Arrangement. We were not engaged to review any legal, regulatory, tax or accounting aspects of the Arrangement and, accordingly, express no view thereon and have assumed the accuracy and completeness of assessments by the Company and its advisors with respect to legal, regulatory, tax and accounting matters. This Opinion has been prepared in accordance with the Disclosure Standards for Formal Valuations and Fairness Opinions of Investment Industry Regulatory Organization of Canada (“IIROC”) but IIROC has not been involved in the preparation or review of this Opinion. 12 CONCLUSION Based upon and subject to the foregoing and such other matters as Macquarie Capital considers relevant, it is Macquarie Capital’s opinion that, as of the date hereof, the consideration to be received by Shareholders pursuant to the Arrangement is fair, from a financial point of view, to the Shareholders. This Opinion is not, and is not intended to be, a recommendation to Shareholders as to how to vote at the Company Meeting. This Opinion has been provided solely for the use of the Board and the Special Committee for the purposes of its consideration of the Arrangement and may not be used or relied upon by any other person or for any other purpose without the express prior written consent of Macquarie Capital.

In addition, we have participated in discussions with members of the senior management of Richmont and Alamos regarding its businesses, operations, financial condition, prospects and related matters. Assumptions and Limitations Our Opinion is subject to the assumptions, qualifications and limitations set forth below. We have not been asked to prepare, and have not prepared, a formal valuation or appraisal of any of the assets or securities of the Company or its affiliates and our Opinion should not be construed as such. With your permission, we have relied upon, and have assumed the completeness, accuracy and fair presentation of all financial and other information, including information provided by the Company or Alamos in relation to Alamos, data, advice, opinions and representations obtained by us from public sources, or provided to us by the Company, Alamos or any of their affiliates or advisors or otherwise obtained by us pursuant to our engagement, and our Opinion is conditional upon such completeness, accuracy and fair presentation. We have not been requested to or attempted to verify independently the accuracy, completeness or fairness of presentation of any such information, data, advice, opinions and representations. We have not met separately with the independent auditors of the Company in connection with preparing this Opinion and with your permission, we have assumed the accuracy and fair presentation G-4

of, and relied upon, the audited financial statements of the Company and the reports of the auditors thereon and the interim unaudited financial statements of the Company. With respect to the historical financial data, operating and financial forecasts and budgets provided to us concerning the Company or Alamos and relied upon in our financial analyses, we have assumed that they have been reasonably prepared on bases reflecting the most reasonable assumptions, estimates and judgments of management of the Company or Alamos, as applicable, having regard to the Company's or Alamos', as applicable, business, plans, financial condition and prospects. The Company has represented to us, in a certificate of two senior officers of the Company dated the date hereof, among other things, that (i) the information, data and other material (financial or otherwise) provided to us by or on behalf of the Company or Alamos, including the written information and discussions concerning the Company or Alamos referred to above under the heading "Scope of Review" (collectively, the “Information”), are complete and correct at the date the Information was provided to us, (ii) since the date on which the Information was provided to us, there has been no material change, financial or otherwise, in the financial condition, assets, liabilities (contingent or otherwise), business, operations or prospects of the Company or Alamos or any of their affiliates and no material change has occurred in the Information or any part thereof and (iii) the representations and certifications with respect to the Information relating to Alamos are given solely on the basis of, and are qualified by the terms of, the representations made to the Company by Alamos in the Arrangement Agreement and the disclosure letter delivered by Alamos to the Company pursuant to the Arrangement.

Our Opinion is rendered on the basis of securities markets, economic and general business and financial conditions prevailing as at the date hereof and the conditions and prospects, financial and otherwise, of the Company and Alamos as they are reflected in the Information and as they were represented to us in our discussions with management of the Company or Alamos or their affiliates and advisors. In our analyses and in connection with the preparation of our Opinion, we made numerous assumptions with respect to industry performance, general business, markets and economic conditions and other matters, many of which are beyond the control of any party involved in the Arrangement. The Opinion is being provided to the Board of Directors and the Special Committee for their exclusive use only in considering the Arrangement and may not be published, disclosed to any other person, relied upon by any other person, or used for any other purpose, without the prior written consent of Maxit Capital, provided that the Opinion may be reproduced in full in the Circular. Our Opinion does not address the relative merits of the Arrangement as compared to other business strategies or transactions that might be available to the Company or in which the Company might engage. Our Opinion is not intended to be and does not constitute a recommendation to any Richmont Shareholders with respect to the Arrangement. Additionally, we do not express any opinion as to the prices at which the Richmont Shares or Alamos Shares may trade at any time. Maxit Capital believes that its financial analyses must be considered as a whole and that selecting portions of its analyses and the factors considered by it, without considering all factors and analyses together, could create a misleading view of the process underlying the Opinion. The preparation of an opinion is complex and is not necessarily susceptible to partial analysis or summary description and any attempt to carry out such could lead to undue emphasis on any particular factor or analysis. The Opinion is given as of the date hereof and, although we reserve the right to change or withdraw the Opinion if we learn that any of the Information that we relied upon in preparing the Opinion was inaccurate, incomplete or misleading in any material respect, we disclaim any obligation to change or withdraw the G-5

Opinion, to advise any person of any change that may come to our attention or to update the Opinion after the date of this Opinion. Summary of Analysis In support of this Opinion, Maxit Capital has performed certain analyses on Richmont, based on those methodologies and assumptions that we considered appropriate in the circumstances for the purposes of providing this Opinion. In the context of this Opinion, we considered, among others, the following methodologies: i. the Comparable Trading with Control Premium Approach (as defined below); and ii. the Precedent Transaction Approach (as defined below). Comparable Trading with Control Premium Approach Maxit Capital reviewed public market trading statistics of comparable production stage gold companies and premiums paid to shareholders on acquisition transactions of comparable production stage gold companies (the “Comparable Trading with Control Premium Approach”). We principally considered multiples based on price to net asset value (“P/NAV”) and price to operating cash flow per share (“P/Cash Flow”). Estimated financial data for the selected comparable companies was based on publicly available equity research analysts’ estimates and public disclosure by the selected companies. We also reviewed equity research analysts’ reports and analysis on Richmont in addition to Richmont’s internal model. We applied a range of selected multiples to the corresponding data for Richmont to develop an implied equity value and thereon applied a range of selected premiums based upon the review of acquisition transactions. Precedent Transaction Approach Maxit Capital reviewed publicly available information on acquisition transactions of comparable production stage gold companies (the “Precedent Transaction Approach”). We principally considered these transactions based upon the implied multiples of P/NAV and P/Cash Flow. We then applied a range based upon these transactions to the corresponding data of Richmont. Maxit Capital also reviewed premiums paid to shareholders of acquired companies in these transactions as at the date of announcement of the transaction and based on the volume weighted average prices over the preceding 20-day period. We then applied a range of selected premiums based upon these transactions to the corresponding data of Richmont. Richmont Analysis Maxit Capital combined the Comparable Trading with Control Premium Approach and the Precedent Transaction Approach for Richmont to estimate an overall value range for Richmont Shares. This estimated value range was compared to the Exchange Ratio and the value of the Consideration, based on the Alamos analysis discussed below. Alamos Analysis Maxit Capital applied certain analysis methodologies to Alamos in order to analyze the value of the Alamos Shares to be received as the Consideration under the Arrangement. The primary methodology used in this analysis was the review of public market trading statistics of comparable precious metal producing companies to Alamos. Estimated financial data for the selected comparable companies was based on publicly available research analysts’ estimates and public disclosure by the selected companies. We also G-6

reviewed equity research analysts’ reports and analysis on Alamos with respect to, among other things, production, cash costs, cash flow, NAV and financial prospects. We also evaluated and assessed the operating profile of Alamos pro forma completion of the Arrangement with Richmont. Fairness Considerations The assessment of fairness of the Consideration, from a financial point of view, must be determined in the context of the particular transaction. In coming to its conclusions in this Opinion, Maxit Capital principally relied upon the following quantitative and qualitative factors: i. Maxit Capital’s analysis of the Consideration compares favourably with our application of the Comparable Trading with Control Premium Approach to Richmont; ii. Maxit Capital’s analysis of the Consideration compares favourably with our application of the Precedent Transaction Approach to Richmont; iii. the market value of the Consideration compares favourably with our application of the Comparable Trading with Control Premium Approach to Richmont; iv. the market value of the Consideration compares favourably with our application of the Precedent Transaction Approach to Richmont; and v. other factors or analysis which we have judged, based on our experience in rendering opinions, to be relevant. Opinion Based upon and subject to the foregoing and such other matters as we considered relevant, it is our opinion, as of the date hereof, that the Consideration to be received by the Richmont Shareholders pursuant to the Arrangement is fair, from a financial point of view, to Richmont Shareholders. Yours very truly, Maxit Capital LP G-7

I-1 APPENDIX I – INFORMATION CONCERNING RICHMONT MINES INC. Notice to Reader Capitalized terms used in this Appendix I but not otherwise defined herein have the meanings set forth in the “Glossary of Terms” in the Circular. Overview Richmont currently produces gold from the Island Gold Mine in Ontario and is also advancing development of the significant high-grade resource extension at depth of the Island Gold Mine. On October 2, 2017, Richmont completed a transaction with Monarques, pursuant to which Monarques acquired Richmont’s Québec based assets including the Beaufor Mine, the Camflo Mill and the Wasamac Development Project as well as all other mineral claims, mining leases and mining concessions located in the Province of Québec in exchange for common shares in the capital of Monarques and the retention of net smelter return royalties on the properties. For further information regarding Richmont, the development of its business and its business activities, see the Annual Information Form of Richmont dated March 22, 2017 (the “Richmont AIF”) which is incorporated by reference in this Circular. Corporate Structure Richmont was incorporated pursuant to Part IA of the Companies Act (Québec), on February 12, 1981, under the corporate name of Rouyn Mining Resources Inc. By certificates of amendment dated February 10, 1987 and June 20, 1991, respectively, Richmont’s articles were amended to change its corporate name to Richmont Mines Inc., now governed by the QBCA. The head office, which is the principal place of business of Richmont and registered office, is located at 161 avenue Principale, Rouyn-Noranda, Québec J9X 4P6. Richmont has an office in Toronto, located at 181 Bay Street, Suite 810, Bay Wellington Tower, Brookfield Place, Toronto, Ontario M5J 2T3. Recent Developments Expansion Case PEA for the Island Gold Mine On May 29, 2017, Richmont announced the results of the Expansion Case PEA completed on the Island Gold Mine. The objective of the Expansion Case PEA was to consider the most cost and capital effective strategy to mine the portion of the mineral resources located within the main area of interest over four mining horizons, to a maximum depth of 1,000 metres below surface, based on existing mineral reserve and mineral resource estimates and using the current mine infrastructure. The Expansion Case PEA contemplates an expansion of underground mine and mill productivity at the Island Gold Mine from 900 tonnes per day to 1,100 tonnes per day for an initial eight year period. The operational ramp-up is currently advancing and the mill is anticipated to achieve the target run rate of 1,100 tonnes per day in the second half of 2018 once the expansion is completed. The Expansion Case PEA is preliminary in nature, and includes an economic analysis of inferred mineral resources that are currently considered too speculative geologically to have the economic considerations applied to them that would enable them to be categorized as mineral reserves, and there is no certainty that the Expansion Case PEA will be realized. Mineral resources that are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability. A summary of the production metrics contained in the Expansion Case PEA is set out below: Expansion Case PEA Summary Tonnes milled (Mt) ...................................................................................................................... 3.1 Head grade (g/t) ........................................................................................................................... 9.68 Mine plan (years) ......................................................................................................................... 8 Daily mine and mill production (tpd) (excluding 2017-2018 ramp-up period)................................. 1,100 Gold recovery (%) ....................................................................................................................... 96.5 Total production (Koz) ................................................................................................................. 926

I-2 Expansion Case PEA Summary Average annual gold production (Koz) ......................................................................................... 115 Average annual gold production (excluding 2017-2018 ramp-up period) (Koz) .............................. 125 The mineral reserves and measured and indicated mineral resources of the Island Gold Mine as of December 31, 2016 (including the mineral reserves located in the upper portion of the mine) were used in the Expansion Case PEA. However, only inferred mineral resources as of December 31, 2016, within the main continuous structure at depth between the 450 metre and 1,000 metre levels primarily located in the fourth mining horizon, were incorporated in the Expansion Case PEA. These inferred mineral resources represent approximately 24% of the total inferred mineral resources in Richmont’s total mineral resource estimate as of December 31, 2016. The December 31, 2016 mining dilution, mining recovery and cut-off grade criteria were used to estimate production in the Expansion Case PEA. The Expansion Case PEA primarily contemplates long-hole mining over four mining horizons over the eight-year period, down to a maximum depth of 1,000 metres using the Island Gold Mine’s dual ramp system. Alimak mining is also considered in the study for the small isolated western reserve block. As a consequence of the accelerated underground development strategy implemented by Richmont beginning in late 2014, for 2015 and 2016 the ratio of waste to ore mined was maintained at approximately 1:1 in order to advance the dual ramp system prior to the launch of stope mining activities, thereby minimizing the total tonnes (ore and waste) needed to be mined in the future. The Expansion Case PEA contemplates that substantially all waste development will be completed in early 2021, resulting in a low average waste-to-ore ratio of 0.33 over the eight-year period contemplated by the Expansion Case PEA. Higher capacity trucks will be phased in as mining activities transition to the lower areas of the mine, which are expected enhance productivity while optimizing the unit cost structure at depth. Operating and Capital Costs The Expansion Case PEA relies on currently realized cost data for the Island Gold Mine including mining, milling, site general and administrative costs and royalties, as well as underground development and infrastructure capital costs. The following table summarizes the average operating costs on a per tonne basis over the eight year period contemplated by the Expansion Case PEA: Operating Costs Costs per Tonne (C$) (US$) Mining costs ................................................................................................... 129 95 Milling costs ................................................................................................... 28 21 General & administrative costs ........................................................................ 16 12 Total operating unit costs per tonne milled ....................................................... 173 128 Mining unit costs are expected to decline over the life of mine, as higher-cost ore development is completed by early 2022. However, such decreases will be partially offset as mining transitions to the fourth mining horizon at depth, as well as by higher costs associated with Alimak mining. Milling unit costs are also expected to decline by up to 8% per tonne once the mill achieves the 1,100 tonne per day run-rate in the latter part of 2018. General and administrative costs are expected to benefit from the economies of scale beginning in 2019. The following table summarizes aggregate capital costs over the eight year period contemplated by the Expansion Case PEA: Capital Investment Total Cost (C$ millions) (US$ millions) Sustaining capital ......................................................................................... 168 124 Project capital: Incremental expansion capital ............................................................... 28 20 Accelerated development/infrastructure ................................................. 40 30 Total project capital ..................................................................................... 68 50 Total capital .................................................................................................. 236 174

I-3 The sustaining capital requirements contemplated under the Expansion Case PEA are expected to remain elevated in the first four years as the operation advances underground ramp development, lateral development for Alimak mining, surface infrastructure, upgrades to higher capacity mobile equipment and an increase in tailings capacity. Sustaining capital requirements are expected to decrease to normalized levels beginning in 2021. The project capital requirements comprise accelerated underground ramp development costs of C$29 (US$22) million to support multi-stope mining, as well as infrastructure costs of C$11 (US$8) million, both of which would have been advanced on a sustaining basis in any event under a 900 tonnes per day scenario. Certain incremental expansion costs relating to expansion of the mill, upgrades in mobile equipment and other items will be necessary to support the increase in productivity to 1,100 tonnes per day. The bulk of capital expenditure for the project is anticipated to be completed in 2018 at which point the operation is expected to return to sustaining capital levels. Royalties and Taxes Royalty payments are expected to incrementally increase as mining activities transition to lower levels of the mine and are expected to average approximately 3.5% over the life of mine. The Expansion Case PEA indicates taxes payable will gradually increase over the life of mine and the Island Gold Mine will become fully taxable beginning in 2021. The effective tax rate over the mine life covered in the Expansion Case PEA is expected to average 22%.

Cash costs, all-in sustaining costs, and all-in costs are all non-IFRS performance measures. See “Non-IFRS Measures” for further information on these measures On July 13, 2017, Richmont filed a technical report in connection with the disclosure of the results of the Expansion Case PEA titled “Island Gold Mine Technical Report and Expansion Case Preliminary Economic Assessment, Dubreuilville, Ontario, Canada”, dated July 13, 2017 (with an effective date of May 29, 2017). The Expansion Case PEA technical report is authored by Daniel Adam, P.Geo., Ph.D., Léon Grondin LeBlanc, P.Eng., Mathieu Bélisle, P.Eng., Vincent K. Ramcharan, P.Eng., M.Eng., and Raynald Vincent, P.Eng., M.G.P. Daniel Adam, Vice- President, Exploration of Richmont has reviewed and approved the scientific and technical information about the Expansion Case PEA in this Circular. Disposition of Québec Assets and Investment in Monarques On September 11, 2017, Richmont announced it had entered into a definitive agreement with Monarques pursuant to which Monarques agreed to acquire Richmont's Québec-based assets including the Beaufor Mine, the Camflo Mill and the Wasamac Development Project, as well as all of Richmont’s other mineral claims, mining leases and mining concessions located in the province of Québec for consideration of 34,633,203 common shares in the capital of Monarques (each, a “Monarques Share”). Concurrently with the signing of the definitive agreement for the disposition of Richmont’s Québec assets (the “Québec Disposition Transaction”), Richmont subscribed for 5,715,000 subscription receipts from Monarques at a price of C$0.35 per subscription receipt. Each subscription receipt was subsequently exchanged for one Monarques Share on October 2, 2017 upon closing of the Québec Disposition Transaction. As a result of the issuance of the Monarques Shares upon closing of the Québec Disposition Transaction and the conversion of the subscription receipts, Richmont currently holds approximately 19.9% of the undiluted issued and outstanding Monarques Shares. Monarques also granted Richmont a 1.0% net smelter return (“NSR”) royalty on the Beaufor Mine once post- closing production reaches an aggregate of 100,000 ounces of gold; a 1.0% NSR royalty on Richmont's interest in the Camflo mineral claims; and a 1.5% NSR royalty on the Wasamac property, which includes a buyback provision on 0.5% of such NSR royalty for C$7.5 million. Subject to regulatory approval, Monarques assumed responsibility for all environmental and other liabilities related to the Québec assets. Richmont also entered into a lock-up agreement pursuant to which, subject to certain exceptions, Richmont will not sell, assign, encumber or otherwise dispose of the Monarques Shares acquired upon conversion of the subscription receipts for a period of one year from the closing of the Québec Disposition Transaction.

Prior Sales The following table summarizes the issuances by Richmont of Richmont Shares, or securities convertible into Richmont Shares, within the twelve months preceding the date of this Circular: Date of Sale Type of Security Price per Security (C$) Number of Securities March 1, 2017 Richmont RSU $10.87 8,740 March 2, 2017 Richmont RSU $10.87 135,615 March 2, 2017 Richmont Options $10.87 97,238 March 16, 2017 Richmont Options $9.93 200,000 March 29, 2017 Richmont RSU $9.21 5,293 Legal Proceedings Richmont is involved in three legal proceedings as of October 18, 2017: Richmont is a plaintiff in a lawsuit against Sterling Oil & Gas Corporation (“Sterling”), who was the propane supplier for the Island Gold Mine in an action for approximately C$156,000 for a breach of contract that occurred on July 30, 2010. Richmont presented its claim in front of the Superior Court of Justice of Ontario. In response to this

I-6 claim, Sterling is countersuing Richmont for an approximate amount of C$365 million, mainly related to the installation and rental of Sterling equipment. Management is of the opinion that the basis of Sterling’s countersuit is unfounded. The trial is expected to be held in 2018 or 2019. On October 6, 2016, Teck Resources (“Teck”) filed a notice of arbitration against Richmont. Teck is claiming that Richmont should pay a 2% NSR on 100% of the value of production on Goudreau Lake claims SSM 2490, 2666, 2667 and 2491. Richmont is contesting this position since it did not hold 100% of the claims (only 69%; 31% was owned by Mr. Henry Webb) at the time the royalty agreement was signed. An interim arbitration award, dated August 4, 2017, held that the 2% NSR applies to 100% of the claims. Richmont filed an appeal of that decision on October 3, 2017. No provision for the award has been made as of the date of this Circular. Richmont filed a lawsuit against Agrégat RN, its former contractor at the Monique Mine, for an amount of C$1,401,910, representing corrective measures that had to be performed by Richmont’s new contractor Richmont has received the defense and counterclaim documents from Agrégat RN for an amount of almost $15,500,000. Management is the opinion that the basis of this counterclaim is unfounded and, consequently, no provision has been accounted in the financial statements in this respect. The trial is expected to be held in 2018. As at October 18, 2017, Richmont is not aware of any other legal proceedings in which it is involved.

K-6 Alamos Gold Inc. Notes to the Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Statements June 30, 2017 (In millions of United States dollars, unless otherwise noted) 1. Acquisition of Richmont Mines Inc. The pro forma consolidated financial statements have been prepared for the purpose of inclusion in a joint information circular dated October 18, 2017 in connection with the definitive agreement (the “Arrangement Agreement”) announced on September 11, 2017 pursuant to which Alamos Gold Inc. (“Alamos”) would acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of Richmont Mines Inc. (“Richmont”) by way of a statutory arrangement under the Business Corporations Act (Quebec) (the “Arrangement”). Completion of the Arrangement is subject to shareholder approval, the approval of the Superior Court of Québec and the satisfaction of certain closing conditions. Richmont owns the Island Gold Mine in Northern Ontario. Under the terms of the Arrangement Agreement, all of the Richmont issued and outstanding common shares will be exchanged on the basis of 1.385 Alamos common shares for each Richmont common share (the “Exchange Ratio”). Concurrent with the announcement of the Arrangement Agreement, Richmont announced the sale of the Beaufor Mine, the Camflo Mill and the Wasamac development project located in Quebec (collectively the “Quebec Assets”). The sale closed on October 2, 2017 (note 7). These pro forma consolidated financial statements do not reflect the sale of the Quebec Assets. 2. Basis of presentation These pro forma consolidated financial statements have been prepared by management of Alamos to give effect to the acquisition of Richmont described in Note 1. The pro forma consolidated statement of comprehensive income for the year ended December 31, 2016 and pro forma consolidated statement of comprehensive income for the six months ended June 30, 2017 combines the historical consolidated statements of comprehensive income of Alamos and the consolidated statements of comprehensive income of Richmont for those respective periods giving effect to the acquisition of Richmont as if it had occurred on January 1, 2016. The pro forma consolidated statement of financial position as at June 30, 2017 combines the historical consolidated statements of financial position of Alamos and the consolidated statement of financial position of Richmont, each as at June 30, 2017, and gives effect to the acquisition of Richmont as if it had occurred on June 30, 2017. The pro forma consolidated financial statements were based on and should be read in conjunction with the:  audited consolidated financial statements of Alamos as at and for the year ended December 31, 2016, prepared in accordance with IFRS as issued by the IASB;  audited consolidated financial statements of Richmont as at and for the year ended December 31, 2016, prepared in accordance with IFRS as issued by the IASB;  unaudited interim consolidated financial statements of Alamos as at and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, prepared in accordance with IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting (“IAS 34”); and  unaudited interim consolidated financial statements of Richmont as at and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, prepared in accordance with IAS 34. Certain reclassifications have been made to the historical financial statements of Richmont in the preparation of the pro forma consolidated financial statements to conform to the financial statement presentation currently adopted by Alamos, and to align the accounting policies of Richmont to those applied by Alamos. Richmont’s financial statements are presented in Canadian dollars. For the purposes of these pro forma consolidated financial statements, line items have been translated into United States dollars at the following rates:  statement of financial position as at June 30, 2017 – at the USD/CAD exchange rate of C$1.2977;  statement of comprehensive income for the year ended December 31, 2016 - at the USD/CAD average exchange rate for the year of C$1.3248; and  statement of comprehensive income for the six months ended June 30, 2017 - at the USD/CAD average exchange rate for the period of C$1.3343. The historical consolidated financial statements have been adjusted to give effect to pro forma events that are (1) directly attributable to the transaction, (2) factually supportable, and (3) with respect to the pro forma consolidated statement of comprehensive income, expected to have a continuing impact on the consolidated results. The pro forma consolidated statements of comprehensive income do not reflect estimated transaction costs related to the business combination (note 6(i)). The pro forma consolidated financial statements as at and for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and for the year ended December 31, 2016 were prepared using the acquisition method of accounting. Alamos is considered the accounting acquirer of Richmont, and accordingly, these pro forma consolidated financial statements give effect to the business combination reflecting Alamos as the acquirer for accounting purposes. At the time of preparation of these pro forma consolidated financial statements, the

K-7 measurement of the fair value of the consideration issued and of the assets and liabilities assumed is dependent upon certain valuations and other studies or events that have yet to progress to a stage where there is sufficient information for a definitive measurement. Accordingly, the pro forma adjustments are preliminary and have been made solely for the purpose of providing pro forma consolidated financial statements. Differences between these preliminary estimates and the final acquisition accounting will occur and these differences could have a material impact on the accompanying pro forma consolidated financial statements and future results of operations and financial position. The assets acquired and liabilities assumed of Richmont will be recorded as of the completion of the Arrangement, primarily at their respective fair values and added to those of Alamos. The results of operations of Richmont will be included in the consolidated financial statements of Alamos from the date of the completion of the Arrangement. In the opinion of Alamos’ management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. No adjustments have been made to reflect any cost savings, operating synergies, or revenue enhancements that may be achieved as a result of the Arrangement, the costs to integrate the operations of Alamos and Richmont, or the costs necessary to achieve any cost savings, operating synergies or revenue enhancements. The pro forma information is not necessarily indicative of what the financial position or results of operations actually would have been had the Arrangement been completed as of the dates indicated. In addition, the pro forma consolidated financial statements do not purport to project the future financial position or operating results. 3. Accounting policies The unaudited pro forma consolidated statement of comprehensive income for the year ended December 31, 2016 has been prepared using accounting policies consistent with the policies used in preparing Alamos’ audited consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended December 31, 2016, prepared in accordance with IFRS as issued by the IASB. The unaudited pro forma consolidated statement of financial position as at June 30, 2017 and the unaudited pro forma consolidated statement of comprehensive income for the six months ended June 30, 2017 were prepared using these same accounting policies, as well as giving effect to the following accounting standards and amendments to accounting standards, which Alamos adopted effective January 1, 2017: IFRS 9 (2014), Financial Instruments (“IFRS 9”). This standard replaces the guidance in IAS 39, Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement (“IAS 39”) on the classification and measurement of financial assets and financial liabilities. IFRS 9 provides a new model for the classification and measurement of financial assets. The classification depends on an entity's business model for managing its financial instruments and the contractual cash flow characteristics of the instrument. For financial liabilities, the standard retains most of the IAS 39 requirements. The Company has adopted the standard retroactively effective January 1, 2017 and elected not to retroactively restate comparative periods. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements, but resulted in certain additional disclosures. There was no impact on carrying values and equity as at January 1, 2017 as a result of the adoption of the standard and no measurement differences as result of adopting IFRS 9. Amendments to IAS 12, Income Taxes. The amendments clarify that the existence of a deductible temporary difference depends solely on a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset and its tax base at the end of the reporting period, and is not affected by possible future changes in the carrying amount or expected manner of recovery of the asset. The amendments also clarify the methodology to determine the future taxable profits used for assessing the utilization of deductible temporary differences. The amendments had no impact on the condensed interim consolidated financial statements.

K-8 4. Estimated consideration transferred The pro forma consolidated financial statements reflect the following preliminary estimate of consideration to be transferred to effect the Arrangement: Conversion calculation Fair value Richmont common shares outstanding on October 6, 2017 63,816,351 Multiplied by the exchange ratio of 1.385 common shares of Alamos for each share of Richmont outstanding 88,385,646 Alamos shares to be issued Multiplied by Alamos’ share price as at October 6, 2017 in $USD $7.07 $624.9 Number and estimated fair value of Richmont stock options exchanged for stock options of Alamos 2,947,000 $7.3 Estimate of consideration to be transferred(1) $632.2 (1) The estimated consideration expected to be transferred reflected in these pro forma consolidated financial statements does not purport to represent what the actual consideration transferred will be when the Arrangement is consummated. In accordance with the acquisition method of accounting, the fair value of equity securities issued as part of the consideration transferred will be measured on the closing date of the Arrangement at the then-current market price. This requirement will likely result in a per share amount different from the $USD 7.07 assumed in the pro forma consolidated financial statements and that difference may be material. For purposes of determining the consideration transferred within the pro forma consolidated financial statements, the closing Alamos common share price of $USD 7.07 on October 6, 2017 was used in the calculation. Management has used a 5% variability factor to illustrate the impact share price movements have on the goodwill and consolidated shareholders’ equity. Alamos management deems this variability factor reasonable in light of current share price volatility. Pro forma purchase price allocation Increase in Alamos share price by 5% Decrease in Alamos share price by 5% Price per share ($USD) 7.07 7.42 6.72 Shares issued (000s) 88,386 88,386 88,386 Consideration issued to Richmont shareholders $624.9 $655.8 $594.0 Estimated fair value of replacement stock options 7.3 7.9 6.7 Total consideration issued $632.2 $663.7 $600.7 Goodwill $173.5 $205.0 $142.0 Consolidated shareholders' equity $2,624.8 $2,656.3 $2,593.3 5. Estimate of assets to be acquired and liabilities to be assumed The pro forma consolidated financial statements reflect the following preliminary estimate of the assets to be acquired and the liabilities to be assumed by Alamos in the Arrangement, reconciled to the consideration transferred (note 4) as a result of the Arrangement as at June 30, 2017: Cash and cash equivalents 73.9 Receivables 3.0 Inventories 8.6 Mineral properties, plant & equipment (i) 525.1 Other assets 0.9 Goodwill (ii) 173.5 Liabilities (35.2)

K-9 Deferred income tax liability (iii) (117.6) Total consideration transferred 632.2 i. Includes an adjustment of $400.7 million to record the preliminary fair value adjustment allocated to Richmont’s mineral property, plant and equipment, resulting in a total fair value of $525.1 million. ii. Management has not yet completed its determination of the fair value of all identifiable assets and liabilities acquired, or the amount of the purchase price that will be allocated to goodwill, or the complete impact of applying purchase accounting on the consolidated statement of comprehensive income. Therefore, after reflecting the preliminary pro forma purchase adjustments identified to date, the excess of the purchase consideration over the adjusted book values of the assets and liabilities acquired has been presented as “goodwill”. iii. Represents the estimated deferred income tax liability, calculated based on an estimated substantively enacted income tax rate in each jurisdiction. As described in Note 7, Richmont closed the transaction to sell the Quebec Assets on October 2, 2017. The values included in the purchase equation of the assets sold, as at June 30, 2017 are: Current assets $8.5 Mineral property, plant and equipment 12.7 Deferred tax assets 3.7 $24.9 Total liabilities $13.8 Net assets $11.1 6. Pro forma adjustments and assumptions Adjustments included in the “Pro forma adjustments” column of the unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements represent the following: (i) An adjustment to reflect both Alamos’ and Richmont’s combined estimated transaction costs of approximately $25.3 million associated with the Arrangement. These costs include severance, long-term employee incentive plan payments (RSUs, and DSUs) and change of control costs, as well as other transaction costs. These costs are not expected to continue, and as such, an adjustment has not been included within the pro forma consolidated statements of comprehensive income. (ii) An adjustment to eliminate Richmont’s historical shareholder’s equity. (iii) An adjustment to reflect the issuance of 88,385,646 common shares of Alamos at $USD 7.07 per share in connection with the acquisition of 100% of the outstanding shares of Richmont (note 4). (iv) An adjustment to reflect the estimated increase to mineral property, plant and equipment associated with the preliminary fair value adjustment of approximately $400.7 million (note 5). The associated increase to amortization and depletion is estimated to be approximately $12.2 million and $28.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and the year ended December 31, 2016, respectively, partially offset by a deferred income tax impact of $3.8 million and $9.1 million, respectively. (v) An adjustment to reflect an estimate of the tax impact of the Arrangement on the pro forma balance sheet, primarily related to the estimated fair value adjustment for mining interests and capitalized exploration costs. The actual effective tax rate could be significantly different than the estimated tax rate, and depends on post-Arrangement activities. (vi) An adjustment to reflect the capitalization of exploration costs incurred and previously expensed by Richmont in accordance with Alamos’ accounting policy. Alamos has determined that the nature of exploration expenses would have been capitalized under its exploration cost capitalization policy. (vii) This pro forma adjustment represents goodwill. (viii) An adjustment to reflect the fair value of replacement stock options outstanding with a total estimated fair value of $7.3 million. (ix) An adjustment to present Richmont’s silver sales in mining and processing costs from revenue on a basis consistent with the presentation in Alamos’ consolidated financial statements. (x) The pro forma consolidated basic and diluted earnings per share for the period presented is calculated as follows: For the six months ended June 30, 2017 Alamos' weighted average number of shares outstanding (in thousands) 292,008

K-10 Alamos common shares issued to Richmont shareholders 88,386 Pro forma weighted average number of Alamos shares outstanding (basic) 380,394 Pro forma net income 10.2 Pro forma earnings per share (basic) $ 0.03 Pro forma weighted average number of Alamos Gold shares outstanding (basic) 380,394 Alamos and Richmont dilutive shares 6,739 Pro forma weighted average number of Alamos Gold shares outstanding (diluted) 387,133 Pro forma net income 10.2 Pro forma earnings per share (diluted) $ 0.03 For the year ended December 31, 2016 Alamos' weighted average number of shares outstanding 265,234 Alamos common shares issued to Richmont shareholders 88,386 Pro forma weighted average number of Alamos shares outstanding (basic) 353,620 Pro forma net income (21.3) Pro forma earnings per share (basic) $ (0.06) Pro forma weighted average number of Alamos shares outstanding (basic) 353,620 Alamos and Richmont dilutive shares - Pro forma weighted average number of Alamos shares outstanding (diluted) 353,620 Pro forma net income (21.3) Pro forma earnings per share (diluted) $ (0.06) 7. Subsequent event - Quebec asset sale Concurrent with the announcement of the Arrangement Agreement, Richmont announced the sale of the Quebec Assets to Monarques Gold Corporation (“Monarques”) in exchange for share consideration. The sale closed on October 2, 2017. Richmont acquired 40,348,203 common shares of Monarques, representing 19.9% of the outstanding common shares. These pro forma consolidated financial statements do not reflect the sale of the Quebec Assets. Richmont acquired 34,633,203 Common Shares of Monarques as consideration for the sale of the Quebec Assets to Monarques. In addition, Richmont acquired 5,715,000 Common Shares of Monarques through the conversion of 5,715,000 subscription receipts of Monarques that Richmont had previously subscribed for at a price of $0.35 per subscription receipt. Richmont has agreed with Monarques that it will not sell the 5,715,000 shares acquired through subscription receipts for a period of one year, subject to certain exceptions. Monarques will grant Richmont the following Net Smelter Return (“NSR”) royalties: • 1.0% NSR on the Beaufor Mine (once post-closing production reaches an aggregate of 100,000 ounces of gold) • 1.0% NSR on Richmont’s interest in the Camflo mineral claims • 1.5% NSR on the Wasamac property (and a purchase option on the NSR of C$7.5 million for 0.5%)

L-1 APPENDIX L – DISSENT PROVISIONS OF THE BUSINESS CORPORATIONS ACT (QUÉBEC) CHAPTER XIV - RIGHT TO DEMAND REPURCHASE OF SHARES DIVISION I - GENERAL PROVISIONS § 1. — Conditions giving rise to right. 372. The adoption of any of the resolutions listed below confers on a shareholder the right to demand that the corporation repurchase all of the person’s shares if the person exercised all the voting rights carried by those shares against the resolution: (1) an ordinary resolution authorizing the corporation to carry out a squeeze-out transaction; (2) a special resolution authorizing an amendment to the articles to add, change or remove a restriction on the corporation’s business activity or on the transfer of the corporation’s shares; (3) a special resolution authorizing an alienation of corporation property if, as a result of the alienation, the corporation is unable to retain a significant part of its business activity; (4) a special resolution authorizing the corporation to permit the alienation of property of its subsidiary; (5) a special resolution approving an amalgamation agreement; (6) a special resolution authorizing the continuance of the corporation under the laws of a jurisdiction other than Québec; or (7) a resolution by which consent to the dissolution of the corporation is withdrawn if, as a result of the alienation of property begun during the liquidation of the corporation, the corporation is unable to retain a significant part of its business activity. The adoption of a resolution referred to in any of subparagraphs 3 to 7 of the first paragraph confers on a shareholder whose shares do not carry voting rights the right to demand that the corporation repurchase all of the person’s shares. 373. The adoption of a special resolution described in section 191 confers on a shareholder holding shares of the class or series specified in that section the right to demand that the corporation repurchase all of the person’s shares of that class or series. That right is subject to the shareholder having exercised all the person’s available voting rights against the adoption and approval of the special resolution. That right also exists if all the shares held by the shareholders are of the same class; in that case, the right is subject to the shareholder having exercised all of the person’s available voting rights against the adoption of the special resolution. 373.1. Despite section 93, non fully paid shares also confer the right to demand a repurchase. 374. The right to demand a repurchase conferred by the adoption of a resolution is subject to the corporation carrying out the action approved by the resolution. 375. A notice of a shareholders meeting at which a special resolution that could confer the right to demand a repurchase may be adopted must mention that fact. The action approved by the resolution is not invalidated solely because of the absence of such a mention in the notice of meeting. Moreover, if the meeting is called to adopt a resolution described in section 191 or in any of subparagraphs 3 to 7 of the first paragraph of section 372, the corporation notifies the shareholders whose shares do not carry voting rights of the possible adoption of a resolution that could give rise to the right to demand a repurchase of shares. § 2. - Conditions for exercise of right and terms of repurchase I. - Prior notices 376. Shareholders intending to exercise the right to demand the repurchase of their shares must so inform the corporation; otherwise, they are deemed to renounce their right, subject to Division II. To inform the corporation of the intention to exercise the right to demand the repurchase of shares, a shareholder must send a notice to the corporation before the shareholders meeting or advise the chair of the meeting during the meeting. In the case of a shareholder described in the second paragraph of section 372 none of whose shares carry voting rights, the notice must be sent to the corporation not later than 48 hours before the shareholders meeting. 377. As soon as a corporation takes the action approved by a resolution giving rise to the right to demand a repurchase of shares, it must give notice to all shareholders who informed the corporation of their intention to

L-2 exercise that right. The repurchase notice must mention the repurchase price offered by the corporation for the shares held by each shareholder and explain how the price was determined. If the corporation is unable to pay the full redemption price offered because there are reasonable grounds for believing that it is or would be unable to pay its liabilities as they become due, the repurchase notice must mention that fact and indicate the maximum amount of the price offered the corporation will legally be able to pay. 378. The repurchase price is the fair value of the shares as of the close of the offices of the corporation on the day before the resolution conferring the right to demand a repurchase is adopted. When the action approved by the resolution is taken following a take-over bid with respect to all the shares of a class of shares issued by a corporation that is a reporting issuer and the bid is closed within 120 days before the resolution is adopted, the repurchase price may be determined to be the fair value of the shares on the day before the take-over bid closed if the offeror informed the shareholders, on making the take-over bid, that the action would be submitted to shareholder authorization or approval. 379. The repurchase price of all shares of the same class or series must be the same, regardless of the shareholder holding them. However, in the case of a shareholder holding non-fully paid shares, the corporation must subtract the unpaid portion of the shares from the repurchase price offered or, if it cannot pay the full repurchase price offered, the maximum amount that it can legally pay for those shares. The repurchase notice must mention the subtraction and show the amount that can be paid to the shareholder. 380. Within 30 days after receiving a repurchase notice, shareholders must confirm to the corporation that they wish to exercise their right to demand a repurchase. Otherwise, they are deemed to have renounced their right. The confirmation may not be limited to only part of the repurchasable shares. It does not affect a shareholder’s right to demand an increase in the repurchase price offered. II. — Payment of repurchase price 381. A corporation must pay the offered repurchase price to all shareholders who confirmed their decision to exercise their right to demand the repurchase of their shares within 10 days after such confirmation. However, a corporation that is unable to pay the full repurchase price offered because there are reasonable grounds for believing that it is or would be unable to pay its liabilities as they become due is only required to pay the maximum amount it may legally pay the shareholders. In that case, the shareholders remain creditors of the corporation for the unpaid balance of the repurchase price and are entitled to be paid as soon as the corporation is legally able to do so or, in the event of the liquidation of the corporation, are entitled to be collocated after the other creditors but by preference over the other shareholders. III. — Increase in repurchase price 382. To contest a corporation’s appraisal of the fair value of their shares, shareholders must notify the corporation within the time given to confirm their decision to exercise their right to demand a repurchase. Such contestation is a confirmation of a shareholder’s decision to exercise the right to demand a repurchase. 383. A corporation may increase the repurchase price offered within 30 days after receiving a notice of contestation. The increase in the repurchase price of the shares of the same class or series must be the same, regardless the shareholder holding them. 384. If a corporation does not follow up on a shareholder’s contestation within 30 days after receiving a notice of contestation, the shareholder may ask the court to determine the increase in the repurchase price. The same applies when a shareholder contests the increase in the repurchase price offered by the corporation. The shareholder must, however, make the application within 90 days after receiving the repurchase notice. 385. As soon as an application is filed under section 384, it must be notified by the corporation to all the other shareholders who are still contesting the appraisal of the fair value of their shares or the increase in the repurchase price offered by the corporation. 386. All shareholders to whom the corporation notified the application are bound by the court judgment. 387. The court may entrust the appraisal of the fair value of the shares to an expert. 388. The corporation must, without delay, pay the increase in the repurchase price to all shareholders who did not contest the increase offered. It must pay the increase determined by the court to all shareholders who, under section 386, are bound by the court judgment, within 10 days after the judgment. However, a corporation that is unable to

L-3 pay the full increase in the repurchase price because there are reasonable grounds for believing that it is or would be unable to pay its liabilities as they become due is only required to pay the maximum amount it may legally pay the shareholders. In such a case, the shareholders remain creditors of the corporation for the unpaid balance of the repurchase price and are entitled to be paid as soon as the corporation is legally able to do so or, in the event of the liquidation of the corporation, are entitled to be collocated after the other creditors but by preference over the other shareholders. DIVISION II - SPECIAL PROVISIONS FOLLOWING FAILURE TO NOTIFY SHAREHOLDERS 389. If shareholders were unable to inform the corporation of their intention to exercise the right to demand the repurchase of their shares within the period prescribed by section 376 because the corporation failed to notify them of the possible adoption of a resolution giving rise to that demand, they may demand the repurchase of their shares as though they had informed the corporation and had voted against the resolution. Shareholders entitled to vote may not exercise the right to demand the repurchase of their shares if they voted in favour of the resolution or were present at the meeting but abstained from voting on the resolution. A shareholder is presumed to have been notified of the proposed adoption of the resolution if notice of the shareholders meeting was sent to the address entered in the security register for that shareholder. 390. A shareholder must demand the repurchase of shares within 30 days after becoming aware that the action approved by the resolution conferring the right to demand a repurchase has been taken. However, the repurchase demand may not be made later than 90 days after that action is taken. 391. As soon as the corporation receives a repurchase demand, it must notify the shareholder of the repurchase price it is offering for the shareholder’s shares. The repurchase price offered for the shares of a class or series must be the same as that offered to shareholders, if any, who exercised their right to demand a repurchase after informing the corporation of their intention to do so in accordance with Division I. 392. The corporation may not pay the repurchase price offered to the shareholder if such payment would make it unable to pay the maximum amount mentioned in the repurchase notice sent to the shareholders who informed the corporation, in accordance with section 376, of their intention to exercise their right to demand the repurchase of their shares. If the corporation cannot pay to the shareholder the full amount offered to the shareholder, the directors are solidarily liable for payment to the shareholder of the sums needed to complete the payment of that amount. The directors are subrogated to the shareholder’s rights against the corporation, up to the sums they have paid. DIVISION III - SPECIAL PROVISIONS WITH RESPECT TO BENEFICIARY 393. A beneficiary who may give instructions to a shareholder as to the exercise of rights attaching to a share has the right to demand the repurchase of that share as though the beneficiary were a shareholder; however, the beneficiary may only exercise that right by giving instructions for that purpose to the shareholder. The beneficiary’s instructions must allow the shareholder to exercise the right in accordance with this chapter. 394. A shareholder is required to notify the beneficiary of the calling of any shareholders meeting at which a resolution that could give rise to the right to demand a repurchase may be adopted, specifying that the beneficiary may exercise that right as though the beneficiary were a shareholder. The shareholder is presumed to have fulfilled that obligation if the beneficiary is notified in accordance with any applicable regulations under the Securities Act (chapter V-1.1). 395. A shareholder must inform the corporation of the identity of a beneficiary who intends to demand the repurchase of shares, and of the number of shares to be repurchased, within the period prescribed by section 376. 396. A shareholder who demands the repurchase of shares in accordance with the instructions of a beneficiary may demand the repurchase of part of the shares to which that right is attached. 397. The beneficiary’s claim with respect to shares for which the full repurchase price could not be paid, as well as the other rights granted to a beneficiary under this chapter, may be exercised directly against the corporation. Likewise, after the repurchase price has been fully paid, the rights granted to a beneficiary under this chapter regarding an increase in the repurchase price may be exercised directly against the corporation.

M-1 APPENDIX M – SUMMARY COMPARISON OF SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS UNDER THE QBCA AND OBCA The OBCA provides shareholders substantially the same rights as are available to shareholders under the QBCA, including rights of dissent and appraisal and rights to bring derivative actions and oppression actions. However, there are certain differences between the two statutes and the regulations thereunder. The following is a summary of certain differences between the QBCA and the OBCA which management of Richmont considers to be of significance to shareholders. This summary is not an exhaustive review of the two statutes. Reference should be made to the full text of both statutes and the regulations thereunder for particulars of any differences between them, and shareholders should consult their legal or other professional advisors with regard to the implications of the Arrangement which may be of importance to them. Amendments to Charter Documents and Other Fundamental Changes Under the QBCA, any amendment to the articles of a corporation requires approval from the shareholders by a special resolution passed by at least two-thirds of the votes cast on the resolution. However, the board of directors of a corporation may, without shareholder authorization, correct certain errors, irregularities and illegal provisions contained in the articles of the corporation, or consolidate them. In addition, certain fundamental changes also require approval from the shareholders by a special resolution passed by at least two-thirds of the votes cast on the resolution. Such fundamental changes include an alienation of property affecting significant business activity (see below), stock splits and stock consolidations (in cases where the corporation has issued more than one class of shares and the splitting or consolidation would affect the rights attached to all the shares of any of those classes) affecting shareholder rights, stock conversions, an amalgamation of the corporation with another entity (other than a short-form amalgamation), the continuance of the corporation to another jurisdiction, or the dissolution or liquidation of the corporation. In all cases where a special resolution is required, an assessment must be made to determine if the resolution favours or changes prejudicially the rights attaching to a class or series of shares, in which case approval by special resolution by each concerned class or series of shares must also be obtained, whether or not the shares carry voting rights. The QBCA also provides that such separate class or series vote is not required in certain circumstances. Under the OBCA, certain fundamental changes require a special resolution passed by not less than two-thirds of the votes cast by the shareholders voting on the resolution authorizing the alteration at a special meeting of shareholders. Such fundamental changes include certain amendments of the corporation’s articles, the sale, lease or exchange of all or substantially all of the property of the corporation other than in the ordinary course of business, certain amalgamations of the corporation with other entities, the continuance of the corporation to another jurisdiction, or certain dissolutions or liquidations of the corporation. In certain instances, where the rights of the holders of a class or series of shares are affected by the alteration differently than those of the holders of other classes or series of shares, the alteration is also subject to approval by a special resolution passed by not less than two-thirds of the votes cast by the holders of shares of each class or series so affected, whether or not they are otherwise entitled to vote. Alienation of Property Under the QBCA, an alienation (including by a subsidiary or through loss of control of a subsidiary) of the corporation’s property (other than to a wholly-owned subsidiary of the corporation) that would result in the corporation being unable to retain a significant part of its business activity requires prior approval from the shareholders by a special resolution passed by at least two-thirds of the votes cast on the resolution. The OBCA requires approval from the holders of shares of each class or series of a corporation by a special resolution passed by not less than two-thirds of the votes cast upon the resolution for a sale, lease or exchange of all or substantially all of the property of the corporation, other than in the ordinary course of business of the corporation, and the holders of shares of a class or series are entitled to vote separately only if the sale, lease or exchange would affect such class or series in a manner different from the shares of another class or series entitled to vote.

M-2 While the shareholder approval thresholds are the same under the QBCA as under the OBCA, there are differences in the nature of the sale which requires such approval (i.e. a sale of all or substantially all of the “property” under the OBCA, and an alienation that renders the corporation unable to retain a significant part of its business activity, whether directly or indirectly through a subsidiary, under the QBCA). Under the QBCA, a corporation is deemed to retain a significant part of its business activity after an alienation if the business activity retained (i) required the use of at least 25% of the value of the corporation’s assets as at the date of the end of the most recently completed fiscal year; and (ii) generated at least 25% of either the corporation’s revenues or its income before taxes during the most recently completed fiscal year. Rights of Dissent and Appraisal The QBCA provides that shareholders who dissent to certain actions being taken by the corporation may exercise a right of dissent and require the corporation to repurchase the shares held by such shareholder at the fair value of such shares (known as the right to demand repurchase of shares). The dissent right is applicable where there is: (1) an ordinary resolution authorizing the corporation to carry out a squeeze-out transaction; (2) a special resolution authorizing an amendment to the articles to add, change or remove a restriction on the corporation’s business activity or on the transfer of the corporation’s shares; (3) a special resolution authorizing an alienation of corporation property if, as a result of the alienation, the corporation is unable to retain a significant part of its business activity; (4) a special resolution authorizing the corporation to permit the alienation of property of its subsidiary; (5) a special resolution approving an amalgamation agreement; (6) a special resolution authorizing the continuance of the corporation under the laws of a jurisdiction other than Québec; or (7) a resolution by which consent to the dissolution of the corporation is withdrawn if, as a result of the alienation of property begun during the liquidation of the corporation, the corporation is unable to retain a significant part of its business activity. In addition, the adoption of a resolution referred to in any of subparagraphs (3) to (7) confers on a shareholder whose shares do not carry voting rights the right to demand that the corporation repurchase all of the person’s shares. The QBCA also provides that shareholders that vote against a special resolution that favours certain shareholders of a class or series of shares or changes prejudicially the rights attaching to all the shares of a class or series of shares may demand that the corporation repurchase all of such shareholders’ shares of that class or series. Under the OBCA, shareholders who dissent to certain actions being taken by the corporation may exercise a right of dissent and require, subject to certain exceptions, the corporation to purchase the shares held by such shareholder at the fair value of such shares. Subject to certain exceptions, the dissent right may be exercised by a holder of shares of any class of the corporation in certain circumstances, including when the corporation proposes to: (1) amend its articles to add, change or remove restrictions on the issue, transfer or ownership of a class or series of shares; (2) amend its articles to add, change or remove any restrictions upon the business or businesses that the corporation may carry on or upon the powers that the corporation may exercise; (3) enter into certain statutory amalgamations; (4) be continued under the laws of another jurisdiction;

M-3 (5) sell, lease or exchange all or substantially all of its property, other than in the ordinary course of business; or (6) amend its articles to increase or decrease the maximum number of, exchange, reclassify or cancel, or alter the rights or privileges attaching to, shares of any class in certain circumstances where such alteration gives the holders of the affected class of shares the right to vote separately as a class. Oppression Remedies Under the QBCA, a person may obtain an order from the court to rectify a situation if the court is satisfied that: (1) any act or omission of the corporation or any of its affiliates effects or threatens to effect a result; (2) the business or affairs of the corporation or any of its affiliates have been, are or are threatened to be conducted in a manner; or (3) the powers the board of directors of the corporation or any of its affiliates have been, are or are threatened to be exercised in a manner; that is or could be oppressive or unfairly prejudicial to any security holder, director or officer of the corporation. On such an application, the court may make such order as it sees fit, including an order to prohibit any act proposed by the corporation. An application of this nature may be made by a current or former registered holder or beneficial owner of a security of the corporation or any of its affiliates, a current or former director or officer of the corporation or any of its affiliates, or by another person who, in the court’s discretion, has the required interest. The equivalent remedy under the OBCA is substantially the same, though it is also available to remedy actual or threatened conduct that “unfairly disregards the interests” of the protected class of persons, which includes creditors of the corporation. Under the OBCA, a complainant may apply to a court for an order to rectify the matters complained of where, in respect of a corporation or any of its affiliates: (i) any act or omission of the corporation or any of its affiliates effects or threatens to effect a result; (ii) the business or affairs of the corporation or any of its affiliates are, have been or are threatened to be, carried on or conducted in a manner; or (iii) the powers of the directors of the corporation or any of its affiliates are, have been, or are threatened to be, exercised in a manner; that is oppressive or unfairly prejudicial to, or that unfairly disregards the interests of any security holder, creditor, director or officer of the corporation. The class of persons that may make such an application is the same as under the QBCA and the threshold test, rather than the “required interest”, is that a “proper person” may make such application. Shareholder Derivative Actions Under the QBCA, a person may apply to the court for leave to bring an action in the name of and on behalf of a corporation or a corporation that is one of its subsidiaries, or intervene in an action to which the corporation or subsidiary is a party, for the purpose of prosecuting, defending or discontinuing the action on behalf of the corporation or subsidiary. Before making such application, the shareholder must give the directors of the corporation or the subsidiary 14 days’ prior notice of the applicant’s intention to apply to the court, unless all of the directors of the corporation or the subsidiary have been named as defendants. Authorization may be granted if the court is satisfied that the board of directors of the corporation or its subsidiary has not brought, diligently prosecuted or defended or discontinued the action, and if the court considers that the applicant is acting in good faith and that it appears to be in the interests of the corporation or its subsidiary that the action be brought, prosecuted, defended or discontinued. An application of this nature may be made by a current or former registered holder or beneficial owner of a security of the corporation or any of its affiliates, a current or former director or officer of the corporation or any

M-4 of its affiliates, or by another person who, in the court’s discretion, has the required interest. In connection with an action brought in this manner, the court may make any order it thinks fit. A right to bring a derivative action is also contained in the OBCA, and this right extends to a registered shareholder, former registered shareholder, beneficial owner of shares, former beneficial owner of shares, director, former director, officer and a former officer of a corporation or any of its affiliates, and any person who, in the discretion of the court, is a proper person to make an application to court to bring a derivative action. No leave may be granted unless the complainant has given at least 14 days’ notice to the directors of the corporation or its subsidiary of the complainant’s intention to apply to the court, unless all of the directors of the corporation or the subsidiary have been named as defendants and the court is satisfied that: (1) the directors of the corporation or its subsidiary will not bring, diligently prosecute, defend or discontinue the action; (2) the complainant is acting in good faith; and (3) it appears to be in the interests of the corporation or its subsidiary that the action be brought, prosecuted, defended or discontinued. Directors The OBCA requires an offering corporation such as Alamos to have a minimum of three directors, at least two of whom must not be officers or employees of the corporation. It also requires that at least 25% of the directors be resident Canadians and if the corporation has fewer than four directors at least one director must be resident Canadian. The QBCA provides that a reporting issuer such as Richmont must have a minimum of three directors, at least two of whom must not be officers or employees of the corporation, but does not impose any residency requirements on the directors. Disclosure of Interests Under the QBCA, every director or officer of a corporation must disclose the nature and value of any interest he or she has in a contract or transaction to which the corporation is a party. For the purposes of this rule, “interest” means any financial stake in a contract or transaction that may reasonably be considered likely to influence decision- making. Furthermore, a proposed contract or a proposed transaction, including related negotiations, is considered a contract or transaction. In addition, a director or an officer must disclose any contract or transaction to which the corporation and any of the following are a party; (i) an associate of the director or officer; (ii) a group of which the director or officer is a director or officer; or (iii) a group in which the director or officer or an associate of the director or officer has an interest. Such disclosure is required even for a contract or transaction that does not require approval by the board of directors. If a director is required to disclose his or her interest in a contract or transaction, such director is not allowed to vote on any resolution to approve, amend or terminate the contract or transaction nor be present during deliberations of the board of directors concerning the approval, amendment or termination of such contract or transaction unless the contract or transaction (i) relates primarily to the remuneration of the director or an associate of the director as a director of the corporation or an affiliate of the corporation; (ii) is for indemnity or liability insurance under the QBCA; or (iii) is with an affiliate of the corporation, and the sole interest of the director is as a director or officer of the affiliate. Under the OBCA, every director or officer of a corporation must disclose to the corporation the nature and extent of any interest that he or she has in a contract or transaction, whether made or proposed, with the corporation, but only if the contract or transaction is “material” and the director or officer (i) is a party to the contract or transaction; (ii) is a director or officer, or an individual acting in a similar capacity, of a party to the contract or transaction; or (iii) has a material interest in a party to the contract or transaction. If a director is required to disclose his or her interest in a contract or transaction, such director is not allowed to vote on any resolution to approve the contract or transaction unless the contract or transaction (i) relates primarily to the remuneration of the director as a director of the corporation or an affiliate of the corporation; (ii) is for indemnity or insurance under the OBCA; or (iii) is with an affiliate of the corporation.

M-5 Delegation by Directors Under the QBCA, the board of directors may not delegate its power: (1) to submit to the shareholders any question or matter requiring their approval; (2) to fill a vacancy among the directors or in the office of auditor or to appoint additional directors; (3) to appoint the president of the corporation, the chair of the board of directors, the chief executive officer, the chief operating officer or the chief financial officer regardless of their title, and to determine their remuneration; (4) to authorize the issue of shares; (5) to approve the transfer of unpaid shares; (6) to declare dividends; (7) to acquire, including by purchase, redemption or exchange, shares issued by the corporation; (8) to split, consolidate or convert shares; (9) to authorize the payment of a commission to a person who purchases shares or other securities of the corporation, or procures or agrees to procure purchasers for those shares or securities; (10) to approve the financial statements presented at the annual meetings of shareholders; (11) to adopt, amend or repeal by-laws; (12) to authorize calls for payment; (13) to authorize the confiscation of shares; (14) to approve an amendment to the articles allowing a class of unissued shares to be divided into series, and to determine the designation of and the rights and restrictions attaching to those shares; or (15) to approve a short-form amalgamation. While the OBCA permits the board of directors to delegate most of its powers to a managing director or a committee of directors, the powers enumerated under items (1), (2), (3), (4), (6), (7), (9), (10), (11), (14) and (15), and the power to remove the chief executive officer(s) of a corporation, however designated, the chief financial officer, however designated, the chair or the president of the corporation may never be delegated to such managing director or committee. In addition, the OBCA does not allow the delegation of the power to (a) approve a management information circular for the corporation; (b) amend its articles to change the name of the corporation from an numbered name to a non- numbered name; and (c) approve certain financial statements set out in the OBCA and Securities Act (Ontario) or approve a take-over bid circular, issuer bid circular or directors’ circular. Requisition of Meetings The QBCA provides that the holders of not less than 10% of the issued shares that carry the right to vote at a shareholders’ meeting sought to be held may requisition the board of directors to call a shareholders’ meeting for the purposes stated in the requisition. On receiving the requisition, the directors are required to call and hold a meeting of the shareholders of the corporation for the purposes set out in the requisition. The OBCA provides that one or more shareholders of the corporation holding not less than 5% of the issued voting shares at a meeting to be held may give notice to the directors requiring them to call and hold a meeting of the shareholders of the corporation for the purposes set out in the requisition.

M-6 Shareholder Proposals Under the QBCA, any registered holder or beneficial owner of voting shares, representing at least either (i) 1% of all outstanding shares of the corporation, or (ii) a number of shares valued at $2,000 or more, of a corporation that is a reporting issuer or has 50 or more shareholders may, by submitting a notice to the board of directors, require the corporation to include in its management information circular for an annual meeting of shareholders any matter the person proposes to raise at such meeting. The number of proposals presented by a person for a meeting may not exceed five. The OBCA provides substantially the same right to registered holders or beneficial owners of voting shares to make proposals to be considered at annual meetings, however, the OBCA does not set a limit to the number of proposals that may be made by any one person for any one meeting or require that the corporation be a reporting issuer or have 50 or more shareholders. In addition, owners of shares may discuss at the meeting any matter in respect of which such owner would have been entitled to submit a proposal. Financial Tests Under the QBCA, operations such as a reduction of capital, the declaration or payment of a dividend, or an amalgamation, cannot be implemented if there are reasonable grounds for believing that the corporation is, or would after the operation be, unable to pay its liabilities as they become due. Under the OBCA, the implementation of such operations, as well as a change of name or any repurchase or redemption of shares by a corporation, is subject to the same restriction, but also to the additional restriction that the operation may not be implemented if there are reasonable grounds to believe that the realizable value of the corporation’s assets would, after the operation, be less than the aggregate of its liabilities (including, in the case of a repurchase, dividend or amalgamation, its stated capital of all classes, and in the case of a redemption, any amount payable on a redemption or liquidation to holders of shares that have a right to be paid before or rateably with the holders of the shares being purchased or redeemed).
