RICHMONT MINESFORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTSSafe Harbor Statement & Cautionary Note to U.S. Investors Concerning Resources EstimatesThis presentation contains forward-looking statements that include risks and uncertainties. When used in this presentation, the words“estimate”, “projects”, “anticipate”, “expects”, “intend”, “believe”, “hope”, “may”, and similar expressions, as well as “will”, “shall”, and otherindications of future tense, are intended to identify forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements are based on currentexpectations and apply only as of the date on which they were made. Except as required by law or regulation, Richmont Mines Inc. (“Richmont”or the “Corporation”) undertakes no obligation and disclaims any responsibility to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements ofinformation, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. The factors that could cause actual results to differ materiallyfrom those indicated in such forward-looking statements include the ability to ramp up productivity to 1,100 tonnes per day in a timely manner,the ability to achieve the enhanced production levels expected, the ability to realize further expansion scenarios, any increases in capital anddevelopment or infrastructure costs, , changes in the prevailing price of gold, the Canadian-U.S. exchange rate, grade of ore mined andunforeseen difficulties in mining operations that could affect revenue and production costs. Other factors such as uncertainties regardinggovernment regulations could also affect the results. Other risks may be detailed from time to time in Richmont’s Annual InformationForm and other public disclosure.
The resource estimates in this presentation were prepared in accordance with National Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosure of MineralProjects (“NI 43-101”) adopted by the Canadian Securities Administrators. The requirements of NI 43-101 differ significantly from therequirements of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). In this presentation, we use the terms “Measured”,“Indicated” and “Inferred” Resources. Although these terms are recognized and required to be used in Canada, the SEC does notrecognize them. The SEC permits U.S. mining corporations, in their filings with the SEC, to disclose only those mineral deposits that constitute“Reserves”. Under United States standards, mineralization may not be classified as a Reserve unless the determination has been made that themineralization could be economically and legally extracted at the time the determination is made. United States investors should notassume that all or any portion of a Measured or Indicated Resource will ever be converted into “Reserves”. Furthermore. “InferredResources” have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence and whether they can be mined economically or legally, and United Statesinvestors should not assume that “Inferred Resources” exist or can be legally or economically mined, or that they will ever be upgraded to amore certain category.
An NI 43-101 Technical Report for the Island Gold Mine Expansion Case Preliminary Economic Assessment (“PEA”) will be filed within 45 days.
For additional information regarding the Mineral Reserves and Resources referred to in this presentation, please refer to the press releasedated Jan. 31, 2017 reporting Richmont’s Mineral Reserve and Resource estimates as of Dec. 31. 2016.
U.S. Investors are urged to consider the disclosure in our annual report on Form 40-F. File No. 001-14598, which may be obtained from us orfrom the SEC’s web site: http://sec.gov/edgar.shtml.

ISLAND GOLD MINEEXPANSION CASE PEA – A DISCIPLINED APPROACH
The Expansion Case PEA represents only the first step in a disciplined multi-phased strategy
Use of current infrastructure; postponing the need for additional infrastructure to a further phase
Approximately 24% of Inferred Resources were incorporated in the PEA; +750k ounces Inferred Resources available for further growth phase
Maximizing mine productivity while maintaining a minimum mine life of 8 years
Positioning the mine as a low cost operation that generates strong cash flow streams, with minimal capital requirements
Currently realized cost data used; Further cost reduction and productivity enhancement initiatives not considered in the PEA
The objective of the PEA was to consider the most cost and capital effectivestrategy to mine the portion of the mineral resources that is located within themain area of interest over four mining horizons, to a maximum depth of 1,000metres below surface, using the current mine infrastructure.
12RIC: TSX NYSE
12
PEA Highlights: Increased productivity (mine and mill) to 1,100 tpd by 2018 over a PEA period of 8 years
The operation is expected to produce an average of 125,000 gold ounces per year, excluding the 2017 and 2018 ramp-up period, or 115,000 ounces over the 8-year mine life considered in the PEA.
Low industry cost profile over the PEA period, including cash costs of approximately $650 (US$480) per ounce, All-in Sustaining Costs (“AISC”) of approximately $835 (US$620) per ounce and All-in Costs (“AIC”), which includes all project and sustaining capital, of approximately $910 (US$675) per ounce.
Minimal incremental capital investment of $28.2 (US$20.9) million is estimated to support a productivity increase from 900 to 1,100 tonnes per day, which will contribute to a strong cumulative pre-tax net cash flow stream, after all capital expenditures, of $749 (US$555) million at a spot gold price of $1,700 (US$1,260) per ounce, or $615 (US$456) million at a downside case gold price of $1,550 (US$1,150) per ounce over the eight years covered by the PEA.
Additional opportunities remain for further expansion scenarios and mine life extension as the PEA only incorporates approximately 24% of the current total inferred resources (as at Dec. 31, 2016) and excludes more than 750,000 inferred resource ounces and does not take into consideration the most recent drilling success laterally to the east and at depth below the 1,000m level.

Expansion Case PEA
Cautionary StatementThe production and cost estimates contained in this the Expansion Case PEA arepartly based on Inferred Resources, and are therefore preliminary in nature. InferredResources are considered too geologically speculative to have mining andeconomic parameters applied to them, or to be categorized as Mineral Reserves.There is no certainty that the conversion of Mineral Resources to Mineral Reservesor the production and cost forecasts on which the Expansion Case PEA is based,will be realized. Mineral Resources that are not Mineral Reserves do not havedemonstrated economic viability.
35RIC: TSX NYSE

Expansion Case PEA based on the December 31, 2016 Mineral Reserves and Resources
Accelerated development of the dual ramp system to allow multi-stope mining beginning in 2018
Mining by ramp down to 1,000 m level; no additional infrastructure required
Phase-in of higher capacity 42t trucks; supports mining at depth
Alimak mining in the isolated western block by 2020
Minimum mill upgrade required; 1,100 tpd run rate by the latter part of 2018
Actual cost information utilized including mining, milling, site G&A and royalties, as well as underground development and infrastructure capital costs
Future costs were adjusted to reflect economies of scale and decreased productivity as mining operations transition to 1,000 m level
Minimal incremental capital required to increase productivity to 1,100 tpd from 900 tpd
EXPANSION CASE PEAKEY TECHNICAL ASSUMPTIONS
36
All Dec 31, 2016 Reserves (incl. Upper Mine) were used in the Expansion Case PEA. For the purpose of this PEA all Mineral Reserves included in the mine plan were considered at the Measured and Indicated Resource level.
All Dec 31, 2016 M&I Resources were included in the PEA. Only the Dec. 31, 2016 Inferred Resources within the main continuous structure, primarily
located in the fourth mining horizon and to a maximum depth of 1,000 metre level, were incorporated in the PEA.
Total undiluted resources used in the PEA: M&I: 2.6 MT @ 10.65 g/t gold for 0.88 million ounces Inf.: 0.5 MT @ 14.95 g/t gold for 0.24 million ounces
The Dec. 31, 2016 mining dilution, mining recovery and cut-off grade criteria were used to estimate a total mining plan production of 3.1MT @ 9.68 g/t gold used in the PEA.

51
Milling unit costs decrease by ~8% (PEA) after mill capacity expansion to 1,100 tpd
Cost efficiencies driven by higher level of productivity, economies of scale
10% increase in labour supports a ~22% increase in capacity
Costs decrease in 2019 and remain stable over the PEA
Variable cost structure consistent (PEA) as no metallurgical changes are anticipated
