~10% of oceangoing ships capable of transiting the locks in the system Vessels in the Great Lakes St. Lawrence Seaway must be operational in an array of different weather and wave conditions, as the river system is highly seasonal and freezes over the winter ✓ Large customers require shore-side unloading flexibility and efficiency that Algoma's fleet of self-unloaders provides ✓ Pilots required to navigate the Great Lakes waterways; Algoma's officers ability to serve as pilots is a competitive advantage 24 24 Your Marine Carrier of Choice T#25Diversified Revenue, Large Customers and Stable End Markets RAL-NOT ENTR Iron Ore Uses: Domestic steel production, export Fertilizers Uses: Domestic agricultural production, export Limestone and cement Uses: Construction of buildings, roads, bridges Salt (Road Salt) Uses: Keeps icy roads safe during winter months 2019 Domestic Dry Bulk Revenue Breakdown (36% of CY 2019 EBITDA) Construction Grain (wheat, barley, soy bean, corn, canola) Uses: Domestic food production, export Petroleum Products Uses: Supply gas stations and provide heating for homes throughout the region 2019 Ocean Self-Unloader Revenue Breakdown (31% of CY 2019 EBITDA) Gypsum 12% Commentary The customer, geographic and operational diversity of the Company mitigates negative economic impact to the sectors in which it operates -

Your Marine Carrier of Choice T#27Legal and Regulatory Considerations Coasting Trade Act --Kala NAS RAL-NOL ENTR CORP FONTY-COM ■ Per the Act, foreign or non-duty paid vessels are prohibited from engaging in any form of coasting trade activities in Canadian waters, or between Canadian ports unless they obtain a so-called coasting trade license prior to starting the operations In order to obtain a coasting trade license, there must be no Canadian flag vessel capacity available pursuant to a public application process involving known Canadian ship-owners and union stakeholders ■ The Act protects Canadian ship owners from unfair competition from countries that have lower wages or lower standards of safety, by forcing such foreign ship owners (and Canadian ship owners of non-Canadian flagged vessels ("foreign vessels") to obtain a coasting trade license before being allowed to use foreign vessels in Canadian waters The Act also requires Canadian operators and crews (no work-permitting process available for foreign crew to work on a Canadian ship), although does not require vessels to be constructed in Canada ■ Emission Control Areas (ECA's or Sulfur Emission Control Areas) are sea areas in which stricter controls were established to minimize airborne emissions from ships as defined by Annex VI of the 1997 MARPOL Protocol The established areas are: Baltic Sea area, North Sea area, North American area and United States Caribbean Sea area - Vessels are required to limit SOx to 0.1% (v.s. 0.5% required by the IMO in international waters) In order to meet these emissions regulations, vessel operators are required to use a low sulfur fuel or install a scrubber to remove sulfur from exhaust emissions Emissions Regulation SEAWAY WRENCE SEAL PILOTS BTS ASSOCIATION ST. LAW St. 1962 Great Lakes Marine Pilotage ■ All vessels are required to hire a pilot from the applicable pilotage authority, or if they are Canadian or US flag operators, are permitted to have a certified self-pilot employed by the company onboard There is a limited pool of highly skilled, knowledgeable and qualified pilots to hire from - Algoma has developed a strong pool of internal self-pilots which provide it with a competitive advantage in the marketplace 27 Your Marine Carrier of Choice T#28Competitive Dynamics - Consolidated Markets with Rational Competitive Dynamics Commentary ■ Algoma owns and operates the largest fleet of dry and liquid bulk carriers on the Great Lakes - St. Lawrence Waterway Increasingly difficult for smaller and undercapitalized operators to compete due to aging fleets, inability to serve large customers and difficulty in meeting stringent operating requirements Because of the extreme industry vetting requirements, no new operator of meaningful scale has entered the market in several decades High initial capital costs, long construction lead time and inability to obtain complimentary long- term contracts are all major deterrents for new operators Fleet renewal options are being developed but no incremental capacity is expected Access to qualified crew (particularly senior officers with piloting certificates) is a key success factor Vessel Type Domestic Dry-Bulk Landscape Full Size Self-Unloaders 6 FORTY-CO LOWER LAKES TOWING LTD.
