NATIONAL INSTRUMENT 43-101 COMPLIANCEThe relevant scientific and technical data prepared by Alio Gold and contained in this presentation has been reviewed and approved by Thomas Bagan, PE, MBA, SME RM, Principal of Thomas H Bagan LLC, a Qualified Person under NI 43-101 who is independent of the Company.
ALTERNATIVE AND NON-GAAP PERFORMANCE MEASURESCash cost per gold ounce and cash cost per gold ounce on a by-product basis are non-GAAP performance measures that management uses to assess the Company’s performance and its expected future performance. The Company has included the non-GAAP performance measures of cash cost per gold ounce and cash cost per gold ounce on a by-product basis throughout this document. In the gold mining industry, these are common performance measures but they do not have any standardized meaning. As such, they are unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. Management believes that, in addition to conventional measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, certain investors use this information to evaluate the Company’s performance and ability to generate cash flow. Accordingly, presentation of these measures is to provide additionalinformation and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance withGAAP. The cash cost per gold ounce is calculated by dividing the operating production costs by the total number of gold ounces sold. The cash cost per gold ounce on a by-product basis is calculated by deducting the by-product silver credits per gold ouncesold from the cash cost per gold ounce. Cash cost per gold ounce is calculated for the San Francisco Mine and the Florida CanyonMine in the same manner as on a consolidated basis. For further details, refer to the Company’s Management Discussion and Analysis for the three month and full year ended December 31, 2019 and 2018.

Florida Canyon Reserve Reporting Notes1. Mineral Reserves have an effective date of 1 November 2018. The Qualified Person for the estimate is Mr. Justin Smith, P.E., SME-RM. 2. All Mineral Resources are reported inclusive of Mineral Reserves.3. The Mineral Reserves and Resources in this report were estimated using the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (CIM), CIM Standards on Mineral Resources and Reserves, Definitions and Guidelines prepared by the CIM
Standing Committee on Reserve Definitions and adopted by CIM Council.4. The reserve was developed using US units, and quantities and grades in the above table reflect conversion to metric units for reporting where applicable. Cut-offs and costs in the notes below are expressed in ounces per short ton (oz/ston)
US$/short ton ($/ston);5. Reserves are reported within a designed pit using a cutoff of 0.006 oz/ston for the radio towers mining area and 0.005 oz/ston for all other areas. 6. The mineral reserves are based on a pit design which in turn aligns with an ultimate pit shell selected from a Lerchs-Grossmann pit optimization exercise. Key inputs for the reserve cutoff calculation are:
• A metal price of $1,250/oz Au; • Ore mining costs by area ranging from $1.42/ston to $2.67/ston; • Waste mining costs by area ranging from $1.24/ston to $1.83/ston; • Crushing and processing costs of $2.85/ston ore; • General and administration costs of $1.02/ston milled; • Pit slope angles varying from 32.5 to 45 degrees; and • Process recoveries of 70%.
7. Mining dilution is assumed to be 5% at zero grade;8. Ore loss is assumed to be 5%;9. The ultimate pit includes 87.6 million tonnes of waste for a stripping ratio of 1.03 tonnes of waste per ton of ore; and10. All figures are rounded to reflect the relative accuracy of the estimate. Totals may not sum due to rounding.
Florida Canyon Resource Reporting Notes1. Mineral Resources are not Mineral Reserves and do not have demonstrated economic viability. There is no certainty that any part of the Mineral Resources estimated will be converted into a Mineral Reserves estimate;2. Au recovery is based on a non-linear relationship to Au Fire Assay grade and is evaluated on a block by block basis in the resource model. To account for this variability, an NSR value was calculated for each block and cutoffs were then applied
to the NSR;3. The resource model was constructed in US units, and quantities and grades in the above table reflect conversion to metric units for reporting where applicable. NSR cut-offs and costs in the notes below are expressed in US$/short ton (ston);4. Resources are reported using a NSR cutoff grade of US$3.99/ston for the Central area, US$4.09/ston for the Central N. and Jasperoid Hill areas, US$3.94/ston for the Main and Radio Towers areas, US$4.04/ston for the Radio Towers N. area, and
US$3.99/ston for the Radio Towers2 area. The variable NSR cutoffs reflect differences in haulage cost;5. Resources in the table above are grouped by major mining area. Central and Central N. were combined, as were all Radio Towers mining areas.;6. Resources stated as contained within a potentially economically minable open pit; pit optimization parameters are: US$1,350/toz Au, an average Au Recovery of 61% for Radio Towers area and 67% for the Central/Main area , US$2.80/toz Au Sales
Cost, US$1.26/ston base waste mining cost, variable haulage costs by mining area, US$3.99/ston base mineralized material processing cost, 45° pit slopes for in-situ rock, and a 37° pit slope for fill/dumps; and7. Numbers in the table have been rounded to reflect the accuracy of the estimate and may not sum due to rounding.
The resource estimate and related geologic modeling for the Florida Canyon Mine were conducted by, or under the supervision of Tim Carew, M.Sc. P.Geo. of SRK Consulting (U.S.), Inc., Reno, Nevada. The mine planning and related reserve estimate were conducted by, or under the supervision of Justin Smith, P.E., SME-RM. of SRK Consulting (U.S.), Inc., Reno, Nevada.
