PART I

 

Item 1.

Exchange Act Reporting History

 

Alamos Gold Inc. (the “Company”) first incurred the duty to file reports under Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), on September 24, 2002.

 

The Company has filed or submitted all reports required under Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act and corresponding Commission rules for the 12 months preceding the filing of this Form. The Company has filed at least one annual report under Section 13(a) of the Exchange Act.

 

Item 2. Recent United States Market Activity

 

The Company’s securities have never been sold in the United States in a registered offering under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”).

 

Item 3. Foreign Listing and Primary Trading Market

 

The Company’s share capital exists of common shares, no par value (the “Common Shares”). The primary trading market for the Common Shares is the Toronto Stock Exchange (the “TSX”) located in Toronto, Province of Ontario, Canada. The Common Shares were initially listed on the TSX on June 21, 2004 under the trading symbol “AGI”.

 

The Company has maintained a listing of the Common Shares on the TSX for at least the 12 months preceding the filing of this Form.

 

The percentage of trading in the Common Shares that occurred on the TSX as of a recent 12-month period was 100%. The first and last day of the recent 12-month period were June 10, 2006 and June 10, 2007, respectively.

 

Item 4. Comparative Trading Volume Data

 

The Company’s trading volume data used to rely on Rule 12h-6(a)(4)(i) are as follows:

 

A.    The recent 12-month period used to meet the requirements of Rule 12h-6(a)(4)(i) is June 10, 2006 to June 10, 2007.

 

B.    During this 12-month period, the average daily trading volume of the Common Shares in the United States and on a worldwide basis amounts to 13,951 shares and 586,830, shares, respectively.

 

C.    During this 12-month period, the average daily trading volume of the Common Shares in the United States represents 2% as a percentage of the average daily trading volume for that class of securities on a worldwide basis.

 

The Company does not have a listing for the Common Shares on a national securities exchange or inter-dealer quotation system in the United States, therefore the Company has not delisted the subject classes of securities from a national securities exchange or inter-dealer quotation system in the United States.

 

The Company does not have a sponsored American Depository Receipt facility, therefore the Company has not terminated a sponsored American Depository Receipt facility regarding the Common Shares.

 

The Company used Bloomberg as a source of trading volume information to determine whether it meets the requirements of Rule 12h-6.
