ALAMOS GOLD INC.

(a corporation existing under the laws of Ontario)

 

No. W-«Warrant»

 

CUSIP NO: 011532116

 

«Number» WARRANTS entitling the holder to acquire one Common Share for each Warrant, subject to adjustment as set out below  

THIS IS TO CERTIFY that, for value received, «Name» (the “Warrantholder”) is the registered holder of the number of warrants (the “Warrants”) stated above and is entitled to acquire in the manner and at the time, and subject to the restrictions contained in the Indenture (as defined below), the number of Class A common shares (the “Common Shares”) of Alamos Gold Inc. (the “Company”) as is equal to the number of Warrants represented hereby (subject to adjustment as set out below and in the Indenture) at an exercise price of $28.46 per Common Share until the Expiry Time (or as defined below).

The Warrants represented by this certificate are issued under and pursuant to a certain indenture (the “Indenture”) made as of August 30, 2013 between Alamos Gold Inc. (a predecessor of the Company) and Computershare Trust Company of Canada (the “Warrant Agent”) (which expression includes any successor agent appointed under the Indenture), as amended by a Supplemental Indenture made as of July 13, 2015 between the Company and the Warrant Agent, to which Indenture and any instruments supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a full description of the rights of the holders of the Warrants and the terms and conditions upon which such Warrants are, or are to be, issued and held, all to the same effect as if the provisions of the Indenture and all instruments supplemental thereto were herein set forth, to all of which provisions the holder of these Warrants by acceptance hereof assents. All terms defined in the Indenture are used herein as so defined. In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between the provisions of the Indenture and the provisions of this Warrant Certificate, except those that are necessary by context, the provisions of the Indenture shall prevail. The Company will furnish to the holder of this Warrant Certificate, upon request and without charge, a copy of the Indenture.

The Warrants represented by this Warrant Certificate are only exercisable on or prior to 4:59 p.m. (Vancouver time) on August 30, 2018 (the “Expiry Time”).

The holder of this Warrant Certificate may, at any time before the Expiry Time, exercise all or any number of the Warrants represented hereby, by surrendering to the Warrant Agent a Warrant Certificate or Warrant Certificates representing the number of Warrants to be exercised, together with the duly completed and executed exercise form attached as Appendix 1 hereto in accordance with the instructions contained in Appendix 4 attached hereto. Any such exercise is subject to compliance with, and may be restricted by, Applicable Legislation. If, at the time of the exercise of the Warrants, there remain restrictions on resale under Applicable Legislation on the Common Shares acquired, the Company may endorse the certificates representing the Common Shares acquired with respect to such resale restrictions.

The Common Shares in respect of which the Warrants are exercised will be deemed to have been issued on the date of such exercise, at which time each Warrantholder will be deemed to have become the holder of record of such Common Shares.

After the exercise of Warrants, the Warrant Agent shall within three Business Days of such exercise cause to be mailed or delivered to each Warrantholder at its address specified in the register for the Warrants maintained by the Warrant Agent, certificates for the appropriate number of Common Shares issuable in respect of such Warrants, not exceeding those which such Warrantholder is entitled to acquire pursuant to the Warrants so exercised. If the holder of this Warrant Certificate exercises some but not all of the Warrants represented hereby, he or she will be entitled to receive, without charge, a new Warrant Certificate representing the unexercised number of the Warrants represented hereby.

 

A-1


The holder of this Warrant Certificate may at any time up to the Expiry Time, upon written instruction delivered to the Warrant Agent and payment of the charges provided for in the Indenture and otherwise in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture, exchange this Warrant Certificate for other Warrant Certificates evidencing Warrants entitling the holder to acquire in the aggregate the same number of Common Shares as may be acquired under this Warrant Certificate.

The number of Common Shares which may be acquired by a Warrantholder upon exercise of Warrants, are also subject to and governed by Article 4 of the Indenture with respect to anti-dilution provisions, including provisions for the appropriate adjustment of the class, number and price of the securities issuable hereunder upon the occurrence of certain events including any subdivision, consolidation, or reclassification of the shares, payment of stock dividends, or amalgamation of the Company.

The holding of the Warrants evidenced by this Warrant Certificate does not constitute the Warrantholder a shareholder of the Company or entitle such holder to any right or interest in respect thereof except as herein and in the Indenture expressly provided.

The Warrants may only be transferred by the Warrantholder (or its legal representatives or its attorney duly appointed) on the register kept at the office of the Warrant Agent, in accordance with applicable laws and upon compliance with the conditions set out in the Indenture, by delivering to the Warrant Agent’s Vancouver office a duly executed Form of Transfer attached as Appendix 2 hereto and complying with such other reasonable requirements as the Company and the Warrant Agent may prescribe and such transfer shall be duly noted on the register by the Warrant Agent.

The holder understands and acknowledges that the Warrants and the Common Shares issuable hereunder have not been and will not be registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), or under the securities laws of any state of the United States, and that any Common Shares issued upon exercise of Warrants held by or for the account or benefit of “U.S. persons” or a person in the United States will be “restricted securities” within the meaning of Rule 144(a)(3) of the 1933 Act. “United States” and “U.S. person” have the respective meanings assigned in Regulation S (“Regulation S”) under the 1933 Act.

The holder understands that the Warrants represented hereby may not be exercised within the United States or by or for the account or benefit of a U.S. person or a person in the United States, and the Common Shares issuable upon exercise of such Warrants may not be delivered within the United States, unless such Common Shares are registered under the 1933 Act and the securities laws of any state in which the holder is resident, or unless an exemption from such registration requirements is available.

The holder understands that, until such time as the same is no longer required under applicable requirements of the 1933 Act or applicable state securities laws, certificates representing the Common Shares which are “restricted securities”, and all certificates issued in exchange therefor or in substitution thereof, will bear a U.S. restrictive legend substantially in the form prescribed by section 5.7 of the Indenture; provided that if the Company is a “foreign issuer” as defined in Regulation S under the 1933 Act at the time such Warrant Shares are being sold, and such Warrant Shares are being sold outside of the United States in compliance with the requirements of Rule 904 of Regulation S, such legend may be removed by providing an executed declaration to the Warrant Agent or, with respect to Common Shares, the Company’s registrar and transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”), in substantially the form set forth as Appendix 3 attached to this Warrant Certificate (or in such other form as the Company may prescribe from time to time) and, if requested by the Company, the Warrant Agent or the Transfer Agent (as the case may be), an opinion of counsel of recognized standing in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company, the Warrant Agent and the Transfer Agent (as applicable) to the effect that such sale is being made in compliance with Rule 904 of Regulation S under the 1933 Act; and provided, further, that, if any Common Shares are being sold otherwise than in accordance with Rule 904 of Regulation S under the 1933 Act and other than to the Company, the legend may be removed by delivery to the Company and the Transfer Agent of an opinion of counsel of recognized standing in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company, the Warrant Agent and the Transfer Agent (as applicable), to the effect that such legend is no longer required under applicable requirements of the 1933 Act or any applicable state securities laws.

This Warrant Certificate shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the Province of British Columbia and the laws of Canada applicable therein and shall be treated in all respects as a British Columbia contract.

 

A-2


After the exercise of any of the Warrants represented by this Warrant Certificate, the Warrantholder shall no longer have any rights under either the Indenture or this Warrant Certificate with respect to such Warrants, other than the right to receive certificates representing the Common Shares issuable on the exercise of those Warrants, and those Warrants shall be void and of no further value or effect.

The Indenture contains provisions making binding upon all Warrantholders resolutions passed at meetings of such holders in accordance with such provisions or by instruments in writing signed by the Warrantholders holding a specified percentage of the Warrants.

Time shall be of the essence hereof.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF the Company has caused this Warrant Certificate to be executed and the Warrant Agent has caused this Warrant Certificate to be countersigned by its duly authorized officers as of this      day of             , 2015.

Schedule “A”

As a result of the distribution of shares of AuRico Metals pursuant to the Arrangement, the new Purchase Price, being the exercise price of the Warrants, was calculated based on the following formula:

A = B x (1-(C/C+D)), where:

“A” is the new Purchase Price of the Warrants in Canadian dollars

“B” is $29.48, being the Purchase Price of the Warrants prior to the Arrangement

“C” is 57,299,594.46, being the 5-day volume-weighted average price (VWAP) of AuRico Metals shares on the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX) during the first 5 days of trading of AuRico Metals multiplied by the number of AuRico Metals shares distributed to shareholders of the Company

“D” is 1,602,020,481.93, being the 5-day VWAP of Class A Shares on the TSX during the first 5 days of trading of the Company multiplied by the number of Class A Shares issued and outstanding on the Effective Date
