FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Information

The information in this presentation has been prepared as at September 20, 2020. This presentation contains “forward looking statements” and "forward-looking information" within the meaning of applicable securities laws, including statements regarding the plans, intentions, beliefs and current expectations of Kirkland Lake Gold with respect to future business activities and operating performance. Forward-looking information is often identified by the words "may", "would", "could", "should", "will", "intend", "plan", "anticipate", "believe", "estimate", "expect" or similar expressions and include information regarding: (i) changes in Mineral Resource estimates, potential growth in Mineral Resources, conversion of Mineral Resources to proven and probable Mineral Reserves, and other information that is based on forecasts of future operational or financial results, estimates of amounts not yet determinable and assumptions of management; (ii) the amount of future production over any period; (iii) assumptions relating to revenues, operating cash flow and other revenue metrics set out in the Company's disclosure materials; and (iv) future exploration plans.

Investors are cautioned that forward-looking information is not based on historical facts but instead reflect Kirkland Lake Gold's management's expectations, estimates or projections concerning future results or events based on the opinions, assumptions and estimates of management considered reasonable at the date the statements are made. Although Kirkland Lake Gold believes that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking information are reasonable, such information involves risks and uncertainties, and undue reliance should not be placed on such information, as unknown or unpredictable factors could have material adverse effects on future results, performance or achievements of the combined company. Among the key factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking information are the following: the future development and growth potential of the Canadian and Australian operations; the future exploration activities planned at the Canadian and Australian operations and anticipated effects thereof; changes in general economic, business and political conditions, including changes in the financial markets; changes in applicable laws; and compliance with extensive government regulation. Exploration results that include geophysics, sampling, and drill results on wide spacings may not be indicative of the occurrence of a mineral deposit. Such results do not provide assurance that further work will establish sufficient grade, continuity, metallurgical characteristics and economic potential to be classed as a category of mineral resource. A mineral resource that is classified as "inferred" or "indicated" has a great amount of uncertainty as to its existence and economic and legal feasibility. It cannot be assumed that any or part of an "indicated mineral resource" or "inferred mineral resource" will ever be upgraded to a higher category of resource. Investors are cautioned not to assume that all or any part of mineral deposits in these categories will ever be converted into proven and probable reserves. This forward-looking information may be affected by risks and uncertainties in the business of Kirkland Lake Gold and market conditions. This information is qualified in its entirety by cautionary statements and risk factor disclosure contained in filings made by Kirkland Lake Gold, including its annual information form for the year ended December 31, 2019, and the financial statements and related MD&A for the financial year ended December 31, 2019 an for the interim period ended June 30, 2020, which are filed with the securities regulatory authorities in certain provinces of Canada and available at www.sedar.com.

Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should assumptions underlying the forward-looking information prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those described herein as intended, planned, anticipated, believed, estimated or expected. Although Kirkland Lake Gold has attempted to identify important risks, uncertainties and factors which could cause actual results to differ materially, there may be others that cause results not to be as anticipated, estimated or intended. Kirkland Lake Gold does not intend, and do not assume any obligation, to update this forward-looking information except as otherwise required by applicable law.

All dollar amounts in this presentation are expressed in U.S. dollars except as otherwise noted.

Use of Non-IFRS Measures

This Presentation refers to average realized price, operating costs, operating costs per ounce sold, all-in sustaining cost (“AISC”) per ounce of gold sold, free cash flow, sustaining capital expenditures and growth capital expenditure because certain readers may use this information to assess the Company’s performance and also to determine the Company’s ability to generate cash flow and meet its expenditure requirements. This data is furnished to provide additional information and are non-IFRS measures and do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”). These measures should not be considered in isolation as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS and are not necessarily indicative of operating costs presented under IFRS. Refer to each Company’s most recent MD&A for a reconciliation of these measures. The most comparable IFRS Measure for operating cash costs, operating cash costs per ounce sold and AISC per ounce sold is production costs as presented in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income, while total additions and construction in progress are the most comparable measures for sustaining and growth capital expenditures.

NOTES TO KIRKLAND LAKE GOLD MINERAL RESERVES & MINERAL RESOURCES

29

Detailed footnotes related to Mineral Reserve Estimates (dated December 31, 2019) - with the exception of Detour:

(1) CIM definitions (2019) were followed in the estimation of Mineral Reserves.(2) Mineral Reserves were estimated using a long-term gold price of US$1,300/oz (C$1,700/oz; A$1,765/oz).(3) Cut-off grades for Canadian Assets were calculated for each stope and included the costs of: mining, milling, General and Administration, royalties and capital expenditures and other modifying factors

(e.g. dilution, mining extraction, mill recovery).(4) Cut-off grades for Australian Assets were calculated for each mining block and included the costs of: mining, milling, General and Administration, royalties and capital expenditures and other modifying

factors (e.g. dilution, mining extraction, mill recovery).(5) Dilution estimates vary by mining methods and ranges from 5% to 50%.(6) Extraction estimates vary by mining methods and range from 50% to 100%.(7) Mineral Reserves estimates for Canadian Operations were prepared under the supervision of N.Vaz, P. En(8) Mineral Reserves estimates for Australian Operations were prepared under the supervision of I.Holland, FAusIM(9) Mineral Reserves are stated at a mill feed reference point.(10) Totals may not add up due to rounding.

Detailed footnotes related to Detour’s Mineral Reserve and Resource Estimates (dated December 31, 2019):

(1) The Company’s mineral reserve and mineral resource statement is classified in accordance with the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (“CIM”) “CIM Definition Standards - ForMineral Resources and Mineral Reserves" adopted by the CIM Council (as amended, the “CIM Definition Standards”) in accordance with the requirements of National Instrument 43-101 “Standards ofDisclosure for Mineral Projects" (“NI 43-101”). Mineral reserve and mineral resource estimates reflect the Company's reasonable expectation that all necessary permits and approvals will be obtainedand maintained.

(2) Mineral reserves were estimated using a gold price of US$1,000/oz and mineral resources were estimated using a gold price of US$1,200/oz at a $US/$CDN exchange rate of 1.10.(3) Mineral reserves and resources were based on a cut-off grade of 0.50 g/t Au.(4) LG fines (sourced from material grading 0.40 – 0.50 g/t Au) classified as Measured or Indicated were reported as Probable mineral reserves and included in the mine plan. Reported tonnage is defined

as material scheduled to be fed from 2021 to the end of the mine as per 2018 life of mine plan.(5) Further information, including key assumptions, parameters, and methods used to estimate mineral resources and mineral reserves are described in the Technical Report on the Detour Lake operation,

dated Nov 26th, 2018.(6) Mineral underground resources for 58N are reported at a cut-off grade of 2.2 g/t Au, using a gold price of US$1,300 per ounce and a $US/$CDN exchange rate of 1.25 with an assumed mining dilution

of 12%.(7) Mineral resources are reported exclusive of mineral reserves. Mineral resources that are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability. Mineral resources are constrained within an

economic pit shell.(8) Mineral Reserves and Mineral Resource estimates for the Detour Operation was prepared under the supervision of A. Leite, PEng , AUSIMM CP (MIN), MEng, P. Eng.(9) Totals may not add due to rounding.
