Forward Looking Statements
No stock exchange, securities commission or other regulatory authority has approved or disapproved the information contained herein. This
presentation includes certain “forward-looking statements”. All statements other than statements of historical fact, included in this
presentation, including without limitation statements regarding potential mineralization and reserves, exploration results, and future plans
and
d objectives
bj ti off Alamos,
Al are forward-looking
f d l ki statements
t t t that
th t involve
i l various
i risks
i k and
d uncertainties.
t i ti Th mineral
The i l resources estimates
ti t
contained here in are only estimates and no assurance can be given that any particular level of recovery of minerals will be realized or that
an identified resource will ever qualify as a commercially mineable or viable deposit which can be legally and economically exploited. In
addition, the grade of mineralization ultimately mined may differ from the one indicated by drilling results and the difference may be
material. The estimated resources described herein should not be interpreted as assurances of mine life or of the profitability of future
operations.
There can be no assurance that forward-looking statements will prove to be accurate and actual results and future events could differ
materially from those anticipated in such statements. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from Alamos’
expectations include, among others, risks related to international operations, the actual results of current exploration activities, conclusions
of economic evaluations and changes in project parameters as plans continue to be refined as well as future prices of gold and silver, as well
as those factors discussed in the section entitled “Risk Factors” in Alamos’ Annual Information Form available on www.SEDAR.com. Although
Alamos has attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially, there may be other factors that cause
results not to be as anticipated, estimated or intended. There can be no assurance that such statements will prove to be accurate as actual
results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements. Accordingly, readers should not place undue
reliance on forward-looking statements.
Cautionary Note to United States Investors Concerning Estimates of Measured, Indicated and Inferred Resources:
Certain tables may use the terms “Measured”, “Indicated” and “Inferred” Resources. United States investors are advised that while such
terms are recognized and required by Canadian regulations,
regulations however,
however the United States Securities and Exchange Commission does not
recognize them. “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 rules, estimates of Inferred Mineral Resources may not form the basis of feasibility or other economic studies. United States
investors are cautioned not to assume that all or any part of Measured or Indicated Mineral Resources will ever be converted into Mineral
Reserves. United States investors are also cautioned not to assume that all or any part of a Mineral Resource is economically or legally
mineable.

Reserve cut-off is determined as a net of process value of $0.10 per tonne, for each model block. The determination was based on a $700 per
ounce gold price, a February 2009 recovery model, and November 2008 actual cost figures from current mining operations.
