Schedule 1.1(c)
Projects

South Texas

The Borrower currently controls three production properties and one exploration property in the state of Texas. These properties are owned by the Borrower’s wholly-owned subsidiary, URI, Inc. The Kingsville Dome, Xxxxxx and Xxxxxxx production properties are shown in Figure 1 and are described below. In addition, effective as of the closing of that certain Asset Exchange Agreement, dated September 5, 2014, among the Borrower, URANCO Inc. and Rio Grande Resources Corporation, URANCO Inc., the Borrower’s wholly-owned subsidiary, will hold leases comprising the Xxxx Xxxx, Xxxxxx, Xxxx Pump, Xxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx and Sejita projects described below (such projects are not shown in Figure 1). On February 27, 2014, the Borrower terminated the lease option agreement relating to the Los Finados exploration property (which included the Tecolote Project) shown in Figure 1 below.

Figure 1. Texas Properties Location Map

Figure 2. Kingsville Dome Property

Kingsville Dome Project (Figure 2)

There was no uranium produced from Kingsville Dome in 2012 or 2011. Some uranium concentrate was collected in 2013 as a result of the pond restoration project. The primary activities undertaken at this project in the first nine months of 2013 were for pond recovery and restoration activities, totaling $2,274,000. Total restoration costs for 2012, 2011 and 2010 were $1,100,000, $940,000 and $903,000, respectively.

Capital expenditures for Kingsville Dome for the first nine months of 2013 totaled $80,000 and were related to land and mineral lease payments and the purchase of depreciable equipment. Total capital expenditures for Kingsville Dome for 2012, 2011 and 2010 were $690,000, $141,000 and $150,000, respectively.

The Property. The Kingsville Dome property consists of mineral leases from private landowners on about 2,434 gross and 2,227 net acres located in central Kleberg County, Texas. The leases provide for royalties based upon a percentage of uranium sales of 6.25% to 9.375%. The leases have expiration dates ranging from 2000 to 2007, however the Borrower holds most of these leases through its continuing restoration activities; and with a few minor exceptions, all the leases contain clauses that permit the Borrower to extend the leases not held by production by payment of a per acre royalty ranging from $10 to $30. The Borrower has paid such royalties on all material acreage. Mineralization is found in the Goliad formation at depths of 600 to 750 feet.

Production History. Initial production commenced in May 1988. From then until July 1999, the Borrower produced a total of 3.5 million pounds. Production was stopped in July 1999, because of depressed uranium prices. The Borrower resumed production at Kingsville Dome in April

2006 and produced 94,100 pounds of uranium in 2006, 338,100 pounds in 2007, 252,000 pounds in 2008 and 56,000 pounds in 2009. The Borrower had no production in 2012, 2011 or 2010.

Permitting Status. A radioactive material license and underground injection control permit have been issued. As new areas are proposed for production, additional authorizations under the area permit are required. See Schedule 6(f)—Kingsville Dome Production Disposal Well Permit Renewals and Production Area Authorization 3. In September and December 2012, Borrower applied to the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) to renew its underground injection control permit at the Kingsville Dome property.

Restoration and Reclamation. Since the Borrower began its groundwater activities in 1998, the Borrower has processed and cleaned approximately 2.9 billion gallons of groundwater at the Kingsville Dome project.

Figure 3. Xxxxxx Property

Xxxxxx Property (Figure 3)

There was no uranium produced from Xxxxxx in 2013, 2012 or 2011. Groundwater restoration has been completed for those wellfields that have been depleted; these wellfields are currently under the stabilization and monitoring phase of the restoration process.

Total capital expenditures for Xxxxxx for the first nine months of 2013 were $10,000, and were related to land and mineral lease payments. Total capital expenditures for 2012, 2011 and 2010 were $69,000, $126,000 and $59,000, respectively.

The Property. The Xxxxxx property consists of mineral leases from private landowners on about 3,377 gross and net acres and the Xxxxxx South property consists of mineral leases from private

land owners on about 1,795 gross acres and 1,479 net acres located in north-central Xxxxx County, Texas. The leases provide for sliding scale royalties based on a percentage of uranium sales. Royalty percentages on average increase from 6.25% up to 18.25% when uranium prices reach $80.00 per pound. The leases have expiration dates ranging from 2012 to 2015. The Borrower is holding these leases by payment of rental fees ranging from $10 to $30 per acre. Mineralization is found in the Goliad Formation at depths of 125 to 350 feet.

Production History. Initial production commenced in 1990. From then until July 1999, the Borrower produced a total of 2.64 million pounds. Production was stopped in July of 1999 because of depressed uranium prices. Production from a new wellfield at Xxxxxx was begun in June 2008. However, technical difficulties that raised the cost of production coupled with a sharp drop in uranium prices led to the decision to shut-in this wellfield in October 2008 after 10,200 pounds were produced. The Borrower had no production from Xxxxxx in 2012, 2011, 2010, or 2009.

Restoration and Reclamation. Since the Borrower began its groundwater activities in 2000, the Borrower has processed and cleaned approximately 1.3 billion gallons of groundwater at the Xxxxxx project.

Permitting Status. A radioactive material license and an underground injection control permit have been issued for the Xxxxxx property. Production could resume in areas already included in existing Production Area Authorizations. As new areas are proposed for production, additional authorizations under the permit will be required. In August 2012, the Borrower applied to the TCEQ to renew its underground injection control permit at the Xxxxxx property.

Figure 4. Xxxxxxx Property

Xxxxxxx Project (Figure 4)

Production at the Xxxxxxx project was shut down during October 2008. The economically recoverable reserves from this project have been mined out. The primary activities undertaken at this project in the first nine months of 2013 were for restoration, with $465,000 in costs being incurred.

Capital expenditures for Xxxxxxx for the first nine months of 2013 totaled $11,300, and were primarily for land and mineral lease payments and the purchase of depreciable equipment. Total capital expenditures for 2012, 2011 and 2010 were $102,000, $97,000 and $78,000, respectively.

The Property. The Borrower has a mineral lease on 872 gross and net acres located in southwestern Xxxxx County, in South Texas. The primary term expired in February 2008; however, the Borrower held the lease by production and is currently in restoration. The lease provides for royalties based upon 6.25% of uranium sales below $25.00 per pound and royalty rate increases on a sliding scale up to 10.25% for uranium sales occurring at or above $40.00 per pound. Mineralization is found in the Oakville formation at depths of 200 to 250 feet.

Production History. The Borrower commenced production from this property in October 2004. The Borrower had no production from Xxxxxxx in 2012, 2011, 2010, and 2009.

Restoration and Reclamation. The Borrower is conducting ongoing restoration and reclamation activities at this project. Total restoration costs for 2012, 2011 and 2010 were $640,000, $590,000 and $470,000, respectively. Since the commencement of groundwater restoration activities at the end of 2007, the Borrower has treated approximately 365 million gallons of groundwater.

Permitting Status. All of the required permits for this property have been received. In August 2012, the Borrower applied to the TCEQ to renew its underground injection control permit at the Xxxxxxx property.

Xxxxxxxx Property (Figure 6)

The Xxxxxxxx Property is a Goliad and Oakville prospect consisting of 2,467 gross and net acres. It is located in Xxxxx and XxXxxxxx counties, Texas. During 2008, the Borrower drilled 280 exploration holes and discovered significant mineralization. Further evaluation will need to be conducted to determine if this property can be mined using ISR methods.

Navajo Nation Matters

In April 2005, the Navajo Nation (“Nation”) Council passed the Diné Natural Resources Protection Act of 2005, 18 Navajo Nation code §1303, which prohibits uranium mining and processing on any sites within “Navajo Indian Country” as defined by 7 Navajo Nation Code § 254(A). The ban may impede or prevent us from developing and operating our properties located in federally defined Indian Country for two reasons. First, the Navajo Nation takes a more expansive view of its own jurisdiction over “Navajo Indian Country” than does current federal law. Specifically, 7 N.N.C. § 254(A) provides that the term “Navajo Indian Country” applies to all land within the exterior boundaries of the Navajo Indian Reservation or of the Eastern Navajo Agency, Navajo Indian allotments, dependent Indian communities, and all land held in trust for, owned in fee by, or leased by the United States to the Navajo Nation. This may conflict with federal law as codified by Congress and interpreted by the federal courts. The term “Indian Country” is derived from jurisdictional determinations in criminal law enforcement proceedings under the federal Indian Country statute, 18 U.S.C. § 1151, and understood to encompass territory situated within Indian reservations, land owned by Indian allottees, and land within a dependent Indian community. Second, while the United States Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit has specifically held, en banc, that the Borrower’s Section 8 property in Churchrock, New Mexico is not Indian Country, approximately 32.5% of our in-place mineralized uranium material is located elsewhere in federally defined Indian Country. Consequently, with respect to the Navajo Nation, our ability to mine will be adversely affected unless Navajo law is modified or a waiver or other exemption is provided.

In February 2012, the Navajo Nation Council passed The Radioactive and Related Substances, Equipment, Vehicles, Persons and Materials Transportation Act of 2012, which would prohibit the transport across Nation lands of any equipment, vehicles, persons or materials for the purposes of exploring for or mining, producing, processing or milling any uranium ore, yellowcake, radioactive waste or other radioactive products on or under the surface of or adjacent to Nation lands unless the transporter has first (i) obtained Nation consent and a federal

grant of easement, (ii) consented to full subject matter and personal jurisdiction of the Nation, and (iii) agreed to terms and conditions regarding clean-up and remediation. The Act would also require the Navajo Nation Environmental Protection Agency (“NNEPA”) to promulgate regulations implementing notice requirements, license fees, bonding requirements, route restrictions and curfews for the transportation of radioactive substances over and across Nation lands or otherwise within Navajo Indian Country. The Act, which may conflict with federal laws and regulations governing the transport of radioactive materials, could have a material adverse effect on our future operations, including our ability to transport equipment and personnel to and from our properties and to transport resin from New Mexico to our processing facilities in Texas.

In April 2012, the Nation’s Division of Natural Resources issued a Notice of Violation and Order to Comply with the Navajo Nation Civil Trespass Act (the “NOV”) against HRI. The NOV assessed a $50 civil assessment for alleged trespass on Xxxxxxx 0, Xxxxxxxx 00 Xxxxx, Xxxxx 00 Xxxx, X.X.X.X. (“Section 9”), which is land held in trust by the United States for the benefit of the Nation (“Trust Lands”). The Order stated that HRI’s Section 8 Churchrock property cannot be reached from New Mexico State Highway 566 without crossing either Section 9 or Section 17, both of which are Trust Lands, and that the Highway 566 right-of-way does not abut or extend into the Section 8 Churchrock property. The Order demanded that HRI cease entering upon and crossing Section 9 and Section 17 for the purpose of transporting vehicles, equipment and/or personnel to the Section 8 Churchrock property until HRI either (i) provided documentation of a validly existing right-of-way or easement; or (ii) obtained an appropriate right-of-way from the Nation. In July 2012, HRI and the Nation resolved the NOV by entering into a Temporary Access Agreement. Under the terms of the Temporary Access Agreement, HRI and its contractors may now access Section 8 through either Section 9 or 17 to support site visits by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission and to satisfy other administrative permitting and licensing requirements related to the Churchrock Project. The Temporary Access Agreement does not extend to construction-related or earth-disturbing activities. HRI has further agreed to remediate any radioactive contamination now existing on Sections 8 and 17 surface lands created by prior operators prior to commencing mining operations on Section 8. Under the terms and for the duration of the Temporary Access Agreement, HRI has agreed to the jurisdiction of the Navajo Nation. HRI and the Nation are now actively engaged in confidential settlement negotiations in order to determine effective compliance with the remediation requirement included in the Temporary Access Agreement, including applicable clean-up standards, enforcement, and waste disposal, and to address longer-term surface access to the entire licensed Project site consistent with applicable law. If further agreement with the Nation is not reached, the Borrower’s development plan could be materially adversely affected.

In response to an application by the Borrower for the approval of a right-of-way across Section 9, Township 16 North, Range 16 West, the US Bureau of Indian Affairs advised in a letter to the Borrower, dated September 5, 2013, that the 1929 deed between the Santa Fe Railroad and the United States government that “This appears sufficient for access to the mineral estate, as long as that access is used for that purpose, it is recommended another Surface Owner Agreement be made with the Navajo Nation, to assure the parties understand and acknowledge the purpose and use of the surface is for mining purposes.”

Cebolleta Project

The Cebolleta Project is located approximately 45 miles (72.4 kilometers) west-northwest of the city of Albuquerque, New Mexico. The Borrower’s subsidiary Neutron controls leases covering approximately 6,717 acres (2,718 hectares) of privately owned surface and mineral rights owned by the Cebolleta Land Grant.

Figure 9. Cebolleta Project

Cebolleta Project (Figure 9). In March 2007, Neutron entered into the Cebolleta Lease with the Cebolleta Land Grant, a privately held land grant, to lease the Cebolleta Property, which is composed of approximately 6,717 acres (2,718 hectares) of fee (deeded) surface and mineral rights. The Cebolleta Lease was affirmed by the New Mexico District Court in Cibola County in April 2007. The Cebolleta Lease provides for: (i) a term of ten years and so long thereafter as Neutron is conducting operations on the Cebolleta Property; (ii) initial payments to the Cebolleta Land Grant of $5,000,000; (iii) a recoverable reserve payment equal to $1.00 multiplied by the number of pounds of recoverable uranium reserves upon completion of a feasibility study to be completed within six years, less (a) the $5,000,000 referred to in (ii) above, and (b) not more than $1,500,000 in annual advance royalties previously paid pursuant to (iv); (iv) annual advanced royalty payments of $500,000; (v) gross proceeds royalties from 4.50% to 8.00% based on the then current price of uranium; (vi) employment opportunities and job-skills training for the members of the Cebolleta Land Grant; and (vii) funding of annual higher education scholarships for the members of the Cebolleta Land Grant. The Cebolleta Lease provides Neutron with the right to explore for, mine, and process uranium deposits present on the Cebolleta Property. In February 2012, Neutron entered into an Amendment of its Mining Lease Agreement amending the Cebolleta Lease, subject to approval of the Thirteenth Judicial District. Pursuant to the amendment, the date by which the Borrower must complete a feasibility study was extended from April 2013 to April 2015. In addition, the date may be further extended subject to a reduction in the $6,500,000 initial payment and annual advance royalty payments deduction to the recoverable reserve payment.

This property was developed and uranium was mined in the past. However, all plant and equipment have been removed from the Cebolleta Property, therefore the Cebolleta Property has no significant plant or equipment, including subsurface improvements and equipment. Electric power is available for mining activities at the Cebolleta Property. Two high voltage electrical transmission lines cross the region several miles north of the Cebolleta Property and electrical lines have been constructed to the site of the former Sohio L-Bar uranium mine.

Figure 10. Xxxx Xxxxxx Project

Xxxx Xxxxxx Project (Figure 10). In October 2006, Neutron entered into the Xxxx Xxxxxx Lease with the JTLC in which Neutron leased the Xxxx Xxxxxx Property, which consists of 4,097 acres (1,658 hectares) of fee (deeded) surface and mineral rights owned by the JTLC. The Xxxx Xxxxxx Lease provides for a term of ten years and will be extended on a year-to-year basis thereafter so long as Neutron is conducting operations on the Xxxx Xxxxxx Property. Additionally, the Xxxx Xxxxxx Lease, provides for: (i) an initial payment to JTLC of $1,250,000; (ii) annual rental payments of $225,000 for the first five years of the lease and $337,500 for the second five years; (iii) after the second five years, annual base rent of $75 per acre; (iv) gross proceeds royalties of 4.65% to 6.5% based on the then current price of uranium; (v) employment opportunities and job-skills training programs for shareholders of the JTLC or heirs of the JTLG; (vi) periodic contributions to a community projects fund if mineral production commences from the Xxxx Xxxxxx Property; and (vii) funding of a scholarship program for the shareholders of the JTLC or heirs of the JTLG. The Borrower is obligated to make the first ten years’ annual rental payments notwithstanding Neutron’s right to terminate the Xxxx Xxxxxx Lease at any time, unless (a) the market value of uranium drops below $25 per pound, (b) a government authority bans uranium mining on the Xxxx Xxxxxx Property, or (c) the deposit is deemed uneconomical by an independent engineering firm.

In 2007, Neutron acquired infill fee mineral leases within the boundaries of the Xxxx Xxxxxx Lease. Neutron is obligated to make annual lease payments and pay production royalties ranging from 4.65% to 6.5% based on the then current price of uranium. The infill fee mineral leases covering the individually-owned small tracts have similar business terms and royalty provisions as the Xxxx Xxxxxx Lease.

The Xxxx Xxxxxx Lease and the infill fee mineral leases provide Neutron with the right to explore for, mine, and process uranium deposits present on the leased premises.

In January 2007, Neutron entered into a letter agreement with International Nuclear, Inc. Pursuant to the letter agreement Neutron acquired a database of information on the Xxxxxxx Canyon deposit located on the Xxxx Xxxxxx Property in consideration of a cash payment and a perpetual royalty of $0.25 per pound of uranium recovered from the Xxxx Xxxxxx Property with a maximum payout of $1,000,000.

Historically, the Xxxx Xxxxxx Property was almost fully developed for uranium mining and processing with the construction of a mill and related mine infrastructure. However, all plant and equipment have been removed from the Xxxx Xxxxxx Property, therefore the Xxxx Xxxxxx Property has no significant plant or equipment, including subsurface improvements and equipment. Electrical power is available for both mining and milling activities at Xxxx Xxxxxx. A high voltage electrical transmission line exists south of the Xxxx Xxxxxx Property and separate electrical power lines have been constructed to the former shaft site and mill site.

Accessibility. The Cebellota and Xxxx Xxxxxx Projects are located in west-central New Mexico, approximately 45 miles (72.4 kilometers) west-northwest of the city of Albuquerque, and from 10 to 25 miles (16.1 to 40.2 kilometers) northeast of the town of Laguna. Access to the project area from Albuquerque is over a paved Interstate highway to the town of Laguna (a distance of approximately 45 miles, or 72.4 kilometers) and a paved two-lane highway (for a distance of 15 miles, or 24.1 kilometers) to the village of Seboyeta and a further 3 (Cebellota) to 16 miles (Xxxx Xxxxxx) (4.8 to 25.7 kilometers) over a well-maintained graded county-owned gravel road. Several private roads of varying quality cross the project lands and provide access to nearly all parts of the project area. Rail service is available from the BNSF Railroad at Grants and Milan, and regularly scheduled air service is available in Albuquerque.

History. The Cebellota and Xxxx Xxxxxx Projects are located within the Laguna mining district, which has been an area of considerable interest to the U.S. uranium industry since the original discovery of the Jackpile uranium mineralized area (located immediately southwest of the southern boundary of the Cebellota Project) in late 1951. Exploration was carried out by the Anaconda Copper Company during the 1950’s on a portion of the Cebellota Project area. The following companies have conducted exploration or mining on the Cebellota Project: Climax Uranium Company, United Nuclear Corporation, Reserve Oil and Minerals, and Sohio Western (then a subsidiary of Standard Oil Company). Exploration and pre-development activities were carried out on and adjacent to the Xxxx Xxxxxx Project by Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxxxx (Xxxxxxxxxx Nuclear), Xxxx-XxXxx, Nuclear Dynamics, Bokum Resources Corporation and Exxon Minerals Corporation, but no mining operations were ever undertaken on the Xxxx Xxxxxx properties.

Environmental and Permits. Neutron has completed archaeological, biological, and radiological surveys of the Xxxx Xxxxxx mineralized area, as well as the Cebellota Area I and III deposits and portions of the St. Xxxxxxx mine area in support of its application for drilling permits, and has completed several environmental evaluations required to support license applications for a proposed mill and tailings storage area. Several other baseline studies are underway or planned to provide all additional data needed for the source material license application for the mill and

tailings sites. In March 2012, Neutron submitted a Sampling and Analysis Plan to the Mining and Minerals Division of the New Mexico Energy, Minerals and Natural Resources Department (“MMD”). This is the first step in submitting a mine permit application.

Figure 11. Ambrosia Lake Targets

Ambrosia Lake Project (Figure 11)

The Borrower believes the Xxxxxxxxx, Deep Rock, Mesa Redonda, West Endy and West Ranch targets represent long-term uranium mineralization potential.

Properties. The Ambrosia Lake Project is located approximately 60 miles (96.5 kilometers) west-northwest of the city of Albuquerque, New Mexico. The project is comprised of the (i) Xxxx Lease which is comprised of 167 unpatented lode mining claims and covers 3,382 acres (1,369 hectares) in the eastern portion of the Ambrosia Lake Project; (ii) Xxxxxx Lease which is comprised of 181 unpatented lode mining claims and one state of New Mexico general mining lease covering a further 4,132 acres (1,672 hectares); (iii) the Xxxxxxxxx Lease which is comprised of eight patented and one unpatented lode mining claims covering 179 acres (72 hectares); and (iv) 292 unpatented lode mining claims for 5,442 acres (2,202 hectares) that are owned directly by the Borrower. Collectively, the Xxxx Lease, Xxxxxx Lease, Xxxxxxxxx Lease and the claims owned by the Borrower cover an area of approximately 13,135 acres (5,316 hectares). The surface lands covering the patented and unpatented mining claims are managed by the U.S. Bureau of Land Management (“BLM”), the U.S. Forest Service (“USFS”) or a private land owner.

In February 2006, Neutron entered into the Xxxx Lease covering 3,382 acres (1,369 hectares) comprised of 167 unpatented lode mining claims in the eastern portion of the Ambrosia Lake mining district. Pursuant to the terms of the Xxxx Lease, Neutron paid $315,000 upon signing,

$100,000 in February 2007 and February 2008, and is obligated to pay an additional $75,000 as an advance royalty each year thereafter through the term of the Xxxx Lease. The Xxxx Lease has a primary term of ten years, but may be extended up to an additional 65 years provided that the Borrower continues to make advance or production royalty payments. The Borrower may terminate the lease at any time without further lease obligations. A 5% production royalty, based on the gross market value of all minerals extracted, is payable for any production from the Xxxx Lease properties.

In June 2006, Neutron entered into the Xxxxxx Lease covering 181 unpatented lode mining claims and one state of New Mexico general mining lease, covering a further 4,132 acres (1,672 hectares) of mineral rights in the Ambrosia Lake mining district in the state of New Mexico. Pursuant to the terms of the Xxxxxx Lease, upon signing Neutron paid a rental payment of $180,000 and issued 65,000 shares of Neutron’s common stock. Neutron also paid a rental payment of $180,000 on the first anniversary and is obligated to pay an annual rental payment of $120,000 on the second through fifth anniversaries of the Xxxxxx Lease. On the sixth anniversary and each anniversary thereafter the Borrower is obligated to pay an annual advance royalty of $240,000. In the event commercial production is achieved during the rental period, then all future rental payments received after commercial production begins will be credited as minimum advance royalty payments. The Xxxxxx Lease has a primary term of ten years but may be extended up to an additional 65 years provided that Neutron continue to make advance or production royalty payments. The Borrower may terminate the lease at any time without future lease obligations. A 5% production royalty based on the gross market value of all minerals extracted is payable for any production from the Xxxxxx Lease properties. The surface overlying the New Mexico general mining lease is owned by the State of New Mexico.

In January 2008, Neutron entered into the Xxxxxxxxx Lease covering 179 acres (72 hectares) comprised of eight patented and one unpatented lode mining claims in the eastern portion of the Ambrosia Lake mining district in the state of New Mexico. Pursuant to the terms of the Xxxxxxxxx Lease, Neutron paid a $315,000 bonus upon signing, $100,000 in advance royalties on December 1, 2008 and December 1, 2009 and the Borrower is obligated to pay $75,000 in advanced royalties every twelve months thereafter so long as the lease is in effect. The Xxxxxxxxx Lease has a primary term of ten years, but may be extended up to an additional 65 years provided that Neutron continue to make advance or production royalty payments. The Borrower may terminate the lease at any time without future lease obligations. A 5% production royalty, based on the gross market value of all minerals extracted, is payable for any production from the Xxxxxxxxx Lease properties. Most of the properties covered by the Xxxxxxxxx Lease are patented lode mining claims in which the surface is privately owned.

The 292 unpatented lode mining claims owned directly by the Borrower do not have any royalty obligations attached to them. The surface estate covering portions of West Endy and Deep Rock targets is managed by the USFS. Surface management responsibilities for Mesa Redonda and portions of West Endy are vested with the BLM. All the unpatented mining claims in the project area are subject to a $140 annual claim maintenance fee payable on each claim to the BLM.

Accessibility. The project is approximately 60 miles (96.5 kilometers) west-northwest of the city of Albuquerque, and 20 miles (32.2 kilometers) north-northeast of the town of Grants. A paved

highway from the town of Milan (Grants) to the village of San Mateo and the Ambrosia Lake area provides excellent access to eastern and northern parts of the project area. Numerous dirt USFS and private ranch roads cross the project lands and provide access to nearly all parts of the project area. Rail service is available from the BNSF Railroad at Grants and Milan, and scheduled air service is available in Albuquerque.

The project area is located in the Ambrosia Lake mining district, which had numerous underground mines and uranium processing xxxxx. Electrical lines cross the project area and provided electricity to the historic xxxxx and mines. All of the historic xxxxx have been dismantled and removed but the remaining electrical power lines could be a source of power. There are no plant facilities or equipment on the properties of the project, including subsurface improvements and equipment. Through March 31, 2012 Neutron has spent $4.0 million on the Ambrosia Lake Project.

History. In the Ambrosia Lake area mineral exploration and development programs (including underground and small-scale open pit mining and milling) commenced in the early 1950’s and continued into the 1990’s. During that period of time, as reported by Xxxxxxxxx, 1989, in the New Mexico Geological Society 40th Conference Guidebook, nearly 190 million pounds of U3O8 were produced from sandstone and limestone-hosted mineralized areas in the district, and a significant amount of uranium mineralization remains in place in the district. During the period of operation of the Ambrosia Lake mining district, underground uranium mines were discovered, developed and operated by numerous companies, including Xxxx XxXxx Nuclear, Homestake Mining Company, United Nuclear/UNC Resources, Xxxxxxxx Petroleum, Ranchers Exploration, Gulf Mineral Resources, and others.

Lands that comprise the Ambrosia Lake Project have been explored by several firms (including Conoco, Homestake Mining, Xxxx-XxXxx, Xxxxx Resources, Pathfinder Mines and United Nuclear Corporation) periodically since the mid 1950’s, and numerous exploration holes have been drilled on Neutron’s leased properties. Much of the drilling and related data from several of these historical programs are currently in the possession of the Borrower, and have served as a portion of the basis of evaluating the mineral potential of the properties.

Figure 12. Deep Rock Target (April 2012)

Deep Rock Target (Figure 12). The Deep Rock exploration target is situated on leased unpatented lode mining claims. The target area is located immediately west-northwest of the Mount Xxxxxx mine (developed by Gulf Mineral Resources, and now owned by Rio Grande Resources) and adjoins the eastern edge of the Roca Honda project of Strathmore Minerals Corp. While some initial exploration drilling was carried out on the target by the Anaconda Company (who drilled three holes), the target area was first explored in a comprehensive way by the minerals division of Continental Oil Company (Conoco) in the late 1970’s. Conoco drilled 14 holes (one hole was terminated prior to reaching the target horizon), and encountered uranium mineralization in Westwater Canyon sandstones, although Conoco did not follow-up on this work due to a precipitous drop in the uranium price. During the 1980’s, Homestake Mining Company drilled one additional hole in the mineralized zone, and encountered similar mineralization to what had been intersected by Conoco in the same area. There has been no physical work on the Deep Rock target since the completion of the Homestake drilling program.

Xxxxxxxxx Target (Figure 13). Considerable exploration drilling was carried out by several companies on the Xxxxxxxxx claims between the mid-1950’s and the early 1980’s. The adjoining Section 35 mineralized area was formerly operated by Xxxx XxXxx, the major historical operator in the Ambrosia Lake district, and the Xxx Xxx/Section 27 underground mines were formerly operated by Xxxxxxxx Petroleum and United Nuclear/UNC Resources. A portion of the Xxxxxxxxx southwest uranium mineralized area was mined by Xxxx XxXxx and United Nuclear. Various ‘historical’ operators of the Xxxxxxxxx claims have prepared mineral resource estimates for the two uranium mineralized areas situated on Neutron’s claims at the Xxxxxxxxx target.

Figure 13. Xxxxxxxxx Target

West Endy Target (Figure 14). The West Endy target is comprised of two contiguous blocks of unpatented lode mining claims and one State of New Mexico general mining lease (site of the inactive Cliffside mine). At least 97 exploration holes have been drilled on the West Endy target by various companies, in particular Enerdyne Corporation, Homestake Mining Company and United Nuclear. Zones of uranium mineralization have been outlined by drilling on the target. The New Mexico general mining lease is the site of the inactive Cliffside underground mine that was discovered in 1956, and brought into production in 1960. The Cliffside mine was one of the last underground mines to operate in the district and was closed in 1985. According to XxXxxxxx and Xxxxxxxxx, 1991, in the New Mexico Bureau of Mines and Mineral Resources Open-File Report 353, total production from the mine has been reported to be over 6 million pounds of U₃O₈ at an average grade of 0.41% U₃O₈. Data in the Borrower’s possession, as well as the results from Neutron’s confirmation drilling program, demonstrate that the West Endy uranium mineralized area extends onto the northeast portion of the New Mexico general mining lease.

Figure 14. West Endy Target

Mesa Redonda Target. The Mesa Redonda target is on the western edge of the Ambrosia Lake mining district. Detailed exploration drilling was carried out in the Mesa Redonda area by Pathfinder Mines, Xxxxxxxxxx Nuclear, Homestake Mining/UNC Resources and private interests in the 1970’s and early 1980’s. This work resulted in the discovery of uranium mineralization on the properties held by Neutron.

West Ranch Target. The West Ranch target, which is on the western part of the Ambrosia Lake mining district, is comprised of 223 lode mining claims. In the vicinity of these claims are several small-scale uranium mines that are reported to have operated in the 1950’s and 1960’s. Additionally there is considerable evidence of exploration conducted by Energy Fuels Nuclear, Xxxxxxxx Petroleum and United Nuclear during the 1970’s.

Environmental and Permits. Exploration and mining activities conducted on lands managed by the USFS and BLM are governed by agency rules and regulations. Additional permits are required from the MMD. The BLM, USFS and MMD entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU), effective January 20, 2004, to provide for cooperation between the agencies and elimination of duplication of efforts between the agencies in the assessment and processing of exploration and mining permit applications. In addition to the requirements for permits to conduct exploration and mining activities, the State requires that all drill holes be “plugged” to prevent contamination of ground water aquifers or communication between aquifers.

Neutron formerly held a “minimal impact” exploration permit (MK013EM), issued by the MMD on February 21, 2007 for drilling on Xxxxxxx 00, Xxxxxxxx 00 Xxxxx, Xxxxx 0 Xxxx, XxXxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxx Xxxxxx, the location of the inactive Cliffside mine. Neutron carried out a drilling program at this area (which covers a portion of the West Endy uranium mineralized area), as outlined in this permit. All of the drill holes in Neutron’s drilling program were completed, “plugged” and abandoned in compliance with applicable State regulations, and under supervision of the New Mexico regulatory authorities. All surface disturbances related to this work program

were reclaimed in compliance with applicable State rules and regulations, and this work has been inspected and found to be in full compliance with the applicable regulations.

Churchrock/Mancos (Figure 15)

The Property. The Churchrock project encompasses about 3,458 gross and net acres. The properties are located in XxXxxxxx County, New Mexico and consist of three parcels, known as Section 8, Section 17 and Mancos. None of these parcels lies within the area generally recognized as constituting the Navajo Reservation.

The Churchrock Section 8 Uranium deposit is about 10 miles northeast of Gallup, NM. It is north of Xxxxxxx 00 xx XX Xxxxxxx 000. The land is best described as an open, slightly sloping canyon surrounded to the north, east, and west by talus slopes grading to table land or mesa.

Figure 15. Churchrock / Mancos Property Mineral Ownership

The Borrower holds an NRC license for and owns the mineral estate in fee for the 200 acres located in NE 1/4 and the SW 1/4 of the NW 1/4 of Section 17, T16N, R16W. The balance of the 440 acres of mineral Section 17, T16N, R16W is also held in fee by the Borrower. In Section 8, T16N, R16W, the Borrower owns the SE 1/4 in fee and holds the minerals in the rest of the section with 26 unpatented federal mining claims (UNC1A thru UNC 26). For the Mancos Property, the Borrower owns the minerals in Section 13, T16N, R17W, in fee, the minerals in the NW 1/4 of Section 7, T16N, R16W, in fee and holds the minerals in the E 1/2 of Section 12, T16N, R17W, with 20 unpatented federal mining claims (KP1A thru XX0X, XX00, XX00, 121617-14A thru 121617-18A, 121617-20A thru 121617-23A and 121617-32A thru 121617-

35A). The federal unpatented mining claims are all held through the payment of a $140.00 assessment fee each year on each claim.

Mineralization occurs in the Westwater Canyon Member of the Xxxxxxxx Formation at depths of 800 to 1,700 feet.

The surface estate on Section 17, Mancos Section 13 and Mancos Section 7 is owned by the United States Government and held in trust for the Navajo Nation. On those sections the Borrower has royalty obligations ranging from 5% to 61/4% and a 2% overriding royalty obligation to the Navajo Nation for various historical surface use agreements (although Borrower is re-evaluating whether all such historical surface use agreements are still in effect). The total royalties on Section 8 depend on the sales price of uranium. Aggregate royalties are potentially as much as 39.25% at a uranium price of approximately $84.00 per pound.

Development Plan. The Borrower anticipates that Churchrock may well be the first of the Borrower’s New Mexico properties the Borrower will develop. The Borrower has spent about $2,771,000, $59,000 and $139,000 in 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively, for permitting activities and land holding costs. In December 2006, the Borrower entered into a joint venture with Itochu to jointly develop this property and in March 2009 the joint venture was terminated.

Water Rights. The State Engineer approved the Borrower’s water rights application in October 1999 and granted the Borrower sufficient water rights for the life of Churchrock.

Permitting Status. The Borrower has the radioactive material license for Section 8. This license is subject to continuing proceedings. The Borrower does not plan to pursue permits for Mancos at this time.

Figure 16. Crownpoint Property Mineral Ownership

Crownpoint (Figure 16)

The Property. The Crownpoint properties are located in the San Xxxx Basin, 22 miles northeast of the Borrower’s Churchrock deposits and 35 miles northeast of Gallup, New Mexico, adjacent to the town of Crownpoint, New Mexico. The properties consist of 640 gross and 556 net acres. The Borrower holds the minerals in the NW 1/4 of Section 9, T17N, R13W with 9 unpatented federal mining claims (CP-1 thru CP9) and the minerals in the SW 1/4 of Section 24, T17N, R13W with 10 unpatented federal mining claims (CP-10 thru CP-19). In the SE 1/4 of Section 24, T17N, R13W the Borrower owns in fee a 40% interest in the minerals on approximately 140 acres and holds 100% of the minerals on 20 additional acres with two unpatented federal mining claims (Consol I and Consol II). In the NE 1/4 of Section 25, T17N, R13W the Borrower holds the minerals with eight unpatented federal mining claims (Hydro-1 thru Hydro-8). The federal unpatented mining claims are held through the payment of a $140.00 assessment fee each year on each claim. Access is via paved road from State Highway 371, through the town of Crownpoint to Church Road to the main gate of the property.

Mineralization is found in the Westwater Canyon Member of the Xxxxxxxx Formation at a depth of from 2,100 to 2,300 feet. Three pilot shafts were commenced on the property in the early 1980’s but were never completed. Surface facilities dating from those activities including buildings and their associated electrical/water infrastructure are still in-place and are currently used as offices and storage facilities.

Development Plan. Capital expenditures for the Crownpoint properties during the first nine months of 2013 totaled $141,000 and were for permitting activities. The Borrower spent about $284,000, $35,000 and $120,000 in 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively, for permitting activities.

Water Rights. The State Engineer approved the Borrower’s water rights application in 2004 and granted the Borrower sufficient water rights for ISR operations for the life of Crownpoint Section 24 mining. The Borrower has two additional pending applications for appropriations of water, which give the Borrower the first two “positions in line” on the hearings list for the San Xxxx Basin. These additional pending water rights applications may involve a claim of jurisdiction by the Navajo Nation.

Permitting Status. The surface estate on Section 19 and 29 is owned by the United States Government and held in trust for the Navajo Nation and may be subject to the same jurisdictional dispute with respect to the UIC permit as for Section 8 and 17 in Churchrock.

Figure 17. Nose Rock Property Mineral Ownership

Nose Rock (Figure 17)

The Nose Rock property consists of approximately 6,400 acres and is located about 12 miles northeast of Crownpoint, New Mexico. The minerals are held in fee on Sections 10, 11, 15, 17, 18, 19, 20, 29, 30 and 31 all in T19N, R11W. Access to the property is via a 41/2 mile private paved road north of Tribal Road 9. The property was developed by Philips Uranium Corporation in the early 1980’s and includes two circular concrete-lined shafts that have been completed to a depth of 3,300 feet. Both shafts have been plugged at surface and just above the mineralized zones. There is no usable surface infrastructure on site. Mineralization occurs in the Westwater Canyon Member of the Xxxxxxxx Formation.

West Largo (Figure 18)

The West Largo property is comprised of six contiguous sections of land located in XxXxxxxx County, New Mexico about 21 miles north of the town of Milan, New Mexico and about three miles xxxx xx Xxxxx Xxxxxxx 000. Access is via a nine-mile 4-wheel drive road from State Highway 509. The minerals on sections 17, 19, 21 and 29 T15N, R10W are held in fee and the minerals on sections 20 and 28 T15N, R10W are held by 75 unpatented federal mining claims (ID21 thru ID91 and ID95 thru ID98). The federal unpatented mining claims are held through the payment of a $140.00 assessment fee each year on each claim.

Mineralization occurs in the Westwater Canyon Member of the Xxxxxxxx Formation at depths ranging from 2,000 to 2,750 feet depending on surface topography. Over 1,000 drill holes were used to define the mineralization in the late 1970’s and early 1980’s. Other than this exploration drilling, there has been no development on this property.

Figure 19. Roca Honda Property Mineral Ownership

Roca Honda (Figure 19)

The Roca Honda property is comprised of four sections of land totaling approximately 2,560 acres located about 4 miles northwest of the village of San Mateo in XxXxxxxx County, New Mexico. Mineral rights for Sections 13, 15 and 17, T13N, R8W are held in fee and Xxxxxxx 0, X00X, X0X is held by 36 unpatented federal mining claims (Roca Honda 55 thru Roca Honda 63, Roca Honda 82 thru Roca Honda 90, Roca Honda 109 thru 117 and Roca Honda 136 thru Roca Honda 144). The federal unpatented mining claims are held through the payment of a $140.00 assessment for each year on each claim. The property is accessed over various 4-wheel drive xxxxx xxxxx xxxxx xx Xxxxx Xxxxxxx 000.

Effective as of the closing of that certain Asset Exchange Agreement, dated September 5, 2014, among the Borrower, URANCO, Inc. and Rio Grande Resources Corporation, URANCO Inc. will have transferred the mineral rights for Sections 13 and 15 to Rio Grande Resources Corporation. In addition, URANCO, Inc. will have transferred to Rio Grande Resources Corporation a royalty interest under that certain Royalty Deed from Santa Fe Pacific Gold Corporation, dated March 21, 1997, and recorded in Book 6, Page 3143 of the real property records of Cibola County, New Mexico in, relating to Xxx 0, Xxx 0, Xxx 0, Xxx 0, Xxx 10, E/2 and NE/4 of Section 25 of Township 13 North, Range 8 West, NMPM, Cibola County, New Mexico, all totaling approximately 234.52 acres.

Mineralization occurs in the Westwater Canyon Member of the Xxxxxxxx Formation at depths ranging from 1,700 on Section 17 to over 3,300 feet in Section 13. In the late 1970’s and early 1980’s, various operators drilled 620 exploration holes on the property. In the late 1980’s, Xxxx-XxXxx sank a shaft to a depth of 1,475 feet on Section 17 to develop the property, then known as the Xxx Mine. The shaft was stopped short of the ore zone and the mine closed down when uranium prices fell in 1983. There is no useable infrastructure on surface.

Potential ISR and OSL Areas (Figures 20 & 21)

Several areas in T13N R 9 W and T14 N R 10W have been considered for application of ISR methods (Sections 13 and 17 of T13N R9W and Sections 5 and 27 of T14 N R 10W). All land described is owned in fee.

In November 2008, the Borrower received an exploration permit from the New Mexico Mining and Minerals Division on Section 13. The permit allowed the Borrower to drill up to ten holes for the purpose of extracting core samples. The drilling was completed in September 2010, and the Borrower received preliminary results from a third-party laboratory analysis which demonstrated low organic carbons. This result indicates that some of the 860,000 pounds of in-place non-reserve mineralized material at this property may be amenable to ISR mining. This property is not yet licensed or permitted. Although further leaching studies will be required to establish recovery percentages in a full scale mining scenario, the Borrower does not currently plan such additional work until after the completion of the feasibility study currently underway on the Borrower’s Churchrock/Crownpoint ISR project.

Two other sections in T14N R10W (Sections 23 and 25) have been the site of extensive development and mining in the past and could provide targets for the application of Old Stope Leaching operations. The mineral estate on these two sections is owned in fee.

One claim parcel is located in Section 12, Township 13 North, Range 9 West NMPM, XxXxxxxx County, New Mexico and includes the ZAC claims no’s. 25 – 60. These claims cover the entire mineral estate for Section 12. The second package of unpatented lode mining claims are situated in the East ½, the East ½ of the East ½ of the Northwest Quarter, and the East ½ of the Southwest Quarter of Section 14, Township 13 North, Range 9 West, NMPM, XxXxxxxx County, New Mexico.

South Dakota

Figure 22. Edgemont Project Property Map

Edgemont Project (Figure 22)

Uranium and vanadium mineralization in the Edgemont Project area occurs as sandstone-hosted small, tabular mineralized “pods” and substantial and wide-spread roll-front systems in the Fall River and Lakota Formations. The Borrower controls a significant land position in the Edgemont mining district of southwestern South Dakota. The Borrower’s land holdings in the district, which include more than 19,062 acres (7,714 hectares) of mineral rights, cover several zones of historically-identified and undeveloped uranium mineralization. While there has been historic uranium mining from the project area, there are no facilities or equipment remaining on the property, including subsurface improvements and equipment.

Property. The Edgemont Project is located on the southwest flank of the Black Hills, about 55 miles (88.5 kilometers) southwest of Rapid City, South Dakota and 8 miles (12.9 kilometers) north-northwest of the city of Edgemont. The Borrower holds 11 State of South Dakota mineral leases, totaling 3,875 acres (1,568 hectares). These parcels were acquired through various competitive lease auctions in 2005, 2006, 2007, and 2008. The leases require annual rental payments to maintain the properties, and a 2% “gross returns” royalty (which has provisions for the deduction of mineral processing and transportation costs) on production from the property. The state leases provide for up to a 15 year term with escalating annual payments that range from the current $2.00 per acre to $50.00 per acre in year 15.

The Borrower also holds 416 unpatented lode mining claims, covering an area of approximately 7,087 acres (2,868 hectares) in the project area. Certain of the Borrower’s mining claims in the project area are situated on deeded (fee) surface over federal-managed minerals. Neutron has acquired access to these “split estate” lands for exploration and production purposes by

negotiating Surface Use and Disturbance Agreements (SUDA’s) with the surface owners of the properties. The SUDA agreements have provisions for the payment of a 2% net proceeds royalty to the surface owners for any production from the claims that underlie the private surface. Neutron holds 14 fee (deeded) mineral leases covering 8,100 net acres (3,278 hectares) within the project area. These leases have primary terms of ten years each and generally require $1.00 per acre annual rental payments. Production royalties on the private mineral parcels are set at the level of 5% of net proceeds for production from the leased lands.

Accessibility. The Edgemont Project is located in Fall River County on the southwestern flank of the Black Hills, a major physiographic feature in southwest South Dakota. Access to the project area is very good, with paved highways located several miles to the west and south, and by well-maintained gravel roads that traverse much of the area. Private agricultural access roads are also available for use. X.X. Xxxxxxx 00 runs east-west through Edgemont, and connects the area with Newcastle, Wyoming to the west and with Hot Springs, South Dakota to the east. The nearest major population center and airport is at Rapid City, located about 55 miles (88.5 kilometers) to the northeast of the project area. A main line of the Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railroad, connecting Alliance, Nebraska and Gillette, Wyoming is situated on the western side of the project area.

History. Uranium mineralization was first discovered at Xxxxxx Canyon, about eight miles (12.9 kilometers) north of the town of Edgemont, in 1951. During the 1950’s, 1960’s, and 1970’s numerous small to medium scale uranium mineralized areas were mined by open pit and underground methods near Edgemont, and farther northwest in the Xxxxx-Xxxxxxx area.

Ore from these modest mining operations in the Black Hills was initially shipped to the Union Carbide mill at Rifle, Colorado, and later to a U.S. Atomic Energy Commission ore-buying station located at Edgemont. Susquehanna-Western, Inc., constructed a mill to recover uranium and vanadium in 1956 and it operated through 1968. The mill has since been decommissioned and dismantled, and the mill site is managed by the Department of Energy. In the mid-to late-1970s and early 1980’s, the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) carried out a comprehensive exploration drilling program down-dip (west and southwest) from mines, prospects, and surface exposures of uranium. Prior companies working in the Edgemont District include: Federal Resources, Homestake Mining Company, Susquehanna-Western, Union Carbide, and Wyoming Minerals.

Powertech Uranium Corp Transaction

The Borrower holds a 30% net proceeds interest from future uranium production from certain unpatented lode mining claims, fee leases and State leases (all formerly held by Neutron) currently controlled by Powertech Uranium (USA) (“Powertech”) in the Xxxxx-Xxxxxxx area, which is located approximately six miles (9.7 kilometers) northwest of Neutron’s current Edgemont Project property holdings in South Dakota. Neutron transferred its property interests in the Dewy-Burdock area to Powertech for which Neutron received (i) a 30% net proceeds interest of future uranium production and sales from Neutron’s former lands, (ii) 327 acres (132 hectares) of mining claims and state leases along with associated historical drilling logs near the Borrower’s Edgemont Project, (iii) 4,117acres (1,666 hectares) of mining claims in the Ambrosia

Lake mining district in New Mexico, and (iv) 1,709 acres (692 hectares) of mining claims and leases in the Xxxxxxx Basin area of Wyoming. Powertech has filed permit applications with the NRC and USEPA and submitted a Plan of Operation to the BLM for its Dewy-Burdock uranium ISR project.

Neutron’s former acreage that is subject to the 30% net proceeds interest payable to the Borrower consists of approximately 1,620 acres (656 hectares) of claims and leases within the Powertech’s proposed Dewy-Burdock permit area and an additional 4,667 acres (1,888 hectares) of prospective claims and leases adjacent to their project permit area. This acreage had historical drilling and adds future development potential to the project.

Wyoming

Figure 23. Copper Mountain Project Map

Copper Mountain Project (Figure 23)

Property. The Borrower has approximately 3,599 net acres (145 hectares) of mineral rights, through three fee (deeded) mineral leases in the Copper Mountain area of central Wyoming. The leased fee (deeded) lands are subject to royalties ranging from 2.5 percent at a uranium selling price of up to $49.99 pound or less to 4.0 percent (gross) at sales price of $50.00 per pound or more.

There are no plant facilities or equipment located on the property, including subsurface improvements and equipment. There has been no physical exploration undertaken on the Copper Mountain project by the Borrower, and expenditures are limited to annual land maintenance costs.

Accessibility. The property is located approximately 35 miles (56.3 kilometers) east-northeast of the city of Riverton, which is the county seat of Fremont County, and about 70 miles (112.7 kilometers) west of the city of Casper. Access to the Copper Mountain Project is good. An east-

west paved highway (US 20-26) between Riverton and Casper is located 14 miles (22.5 kilometers) south of the project area, and a north-south paved highway (US 20), between the towns of Shoshoni and Thermopolis is located 11 miles (17.7 kilometers) west. The immediate project area is accessible from a network of graded county roads and unimproved ranch roads which traverse a broad valley along the south flank of the Owl Creek Mountains and enter the mineralized areas from the south.

History. The Copper Mountain district hosts five significant low-grade uranium mineralized areas. The Copper Mountain area has had a long history of exploration, prospecting, and minor mineral production, beginning in the late 1800’s. This initial phase of prospecting activity was focused upon copper, gold and silver prospects. Uranium mineralization was first discovered in the Copper Mountain area in 1953 by a local rancher-prospector, at a locality that was later to become the Arrowhead Mine.

Additional work was conducted in the area by Xxxx XxXxx, who discovered mineralization in the district in 1953 and in 1955 by the U. S. Atomic Energy Commission. Uranium mining commenced at the Arrowhead Mine of Susquehanna Western in March, 1955, and ore was shipped to Susquehanna’s mill near Riverton, Wyoming periodically until 1971, when the mine was closed. Utah Construction and Mining discovered the Xxxxxx mineralized area in the late 1950’s, and in 1965 Xxxx XxXxx discovered the Knob mineralized area. Other companies that carried out uranium exploration programs in the Copper Mountain area include the Anaconda Copper Company, Nuclear Dynamics, Teton Exploration, Urania Exploration, and Western Nuclear. The most comprehensive exploration program in the Copper Mountain Project area was undertaken by Rocky Mountain Energy Company, previously known as Union Pacific Mining

Geology and Mineralization. Uranium mineralization at the Copper Mountain Project occurs in two distinct geologic environments: fracture-controlled uranium mineralization and as disseminated mineralization.

Arizona

In 2006, Neutron undertook an exploration and acquisition program for breccia pipe hosted uranium mineralized areas in northern Arizona. Breccia pipe uranium mineralized areas represent some of the highest grade uranium mineralized areas in the United States. Several of the targets Neutron acquired had evidence of historical drilling by several companies that were primarily active in the late 1970’s and 1980’s, including Energy Fuels, Energy Reserves Group, Pathfinder Mines and Rocky Mountain Energy Company.

Breccia pipes in northern Arizona were formed as the result of the collapse of dissolution caverns in the Redwall Limestone. This collapse formed pipes containing broken sedimentary rock which in turn provided an excellent setting for uranium deposition.

In 2009, Neutron terminated its breccia pipe exploration activities and transferred certain properties, in two separate transactions, to VANE Minerals Company and Arizona Strip Partners LLC. Neutron transferred acreage to VANE Minerals (NEUTRON) LLC and reserved a 2% royalty, unless production is from a state lease with a base royalty greater than 5%, then the royalty is reduced to 1%. Neutron transferred acreage to Arizona Strip Partners LLC, a venture

between Energy Fuels and Royal Resources from Australia and reserved a 2% royalty. In both transactions the Borrower has the option to back-in for a 30% interest should a feasibility study be completed.

Joint venturers, partners or other Persons that own an interest in any Property:

In May 2011, the Borrower entered into an exploration agreement with Cameco Texas, Inc. (“CTI”), a subsidiary of Cameco (NYSE: CCJ) on the Los Finados Project. In December 2012, the Borrower and CTI amended their exploration agreement. The agreement with CTI (as amended) also includes a five-phase exploration program, the first two of which are complete and the third of which is underway. Under this amended agreement, CTI will fund the majority of the exploration costs and can earn up to a 70% interest in the project in consideration for its investment. On November 29, 2013, CTI notified the Borrower of CTI’s intent to terminate the exploration agreement. On February 27, 2014, after exploring its options with respect to the project, the Borrower provided notice terminating the lease option agreement with the Texas landowner.

Mineralization:

In accordance with the Commission’s Guideline on Non-Reserve Mineralized Material, and as shown in the following table, the Borrower estimates 136.2 million pounds of in-place mineralized uranium material on the Borrower’s New Mexico properties as of September 1, 2012. The estimate for each New Mexico property is based on studies and geologic reports prepared by prior owners, along with studies and reports prepared by geologists engaged by the Borrower. The estimates presented below for Mancos, Churchrock, Nose Rock, West Largo, Roca Honda, Crownpoint and Ambrosia Lake were reviewed and affirmed by Xxxxx Xxxxxxx & Company (USA), Inc., an independent private mining consulting firm in their report dated February 26, 2008. Since the date of the report, the Borrower has maintained its ownership position of these properties, the properties have not been subject to any production activities and the estimates remain unchanged. On August 31, 2012 the Borrower completed the acquisition of Neutron. The Xxxxxxx, Southeast, Area I, Area II, Area III and Area V were added to the Borrower’s New Mexico portfolio. These properties were not part of the Xxxxx Xxxxxx report.

Non-reserve mineral resource estimates attributed to the former Neutron properties now under the Borrower’s control were prepared by Neutron’s technical staff.
