FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

Safe Harbor Statement & Cautionary Note to U.S. Investors Concerning Resource Estimates

This presentation contains forward-looking statements that include risks and uncertainties. The factors that couldcause actual results to differ materially from those indicated in such forward-looking statements include changes in theprevailing price of gold, the Canadian-U.S. exchange rate, grade of ore mined and unforeseen difficulties in miningoperations that could affect revenue and production costs. Other factors such as uncertainties regarding governmentregulations could also affect the results. Other risks may be detailed from time to time in Richmont Mines Inc.’speriodic reports and annual notice.

The resource estimates in this presentation were prepared in accordance with NI 43-101 adopted by the CanadianSecurities Administrators. The requirements of NI 43-101 differ significantly from the requirements of the United StatesSecurities 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 mineraldeposits that constitute “Reserves”. Under United States standards, mineralization may not be classified as a Reserveunless the determination has been made that the mineralization could be economically and legally extracted at the timethe determination is made. United States investors should not assume that all or any portion of a Measured orIndicated Resource will ever be converted into “Reserves”. Furthermore, “Inferred Resources” have a great amount ofuncertainty as to their existence and whether they can be mined economically or legally, and United States investorsshould not assume that “Inferred Resources” exist or can be legally or economically mined, or that they will ever beupgraded to a more certain category.

U.S. Investors are urged to consider the disclosure in our annual report on Form 20-F, File No. 001-14598, which maybe obtained from us or from the SEC’s web site: http://sec.gov/edgar.shtml.
