It is hereby acknowledged that the initial Option granted to the Executive prior the Effective Date of this Agreement was negotiated as between the Parties in the context of the stage of development of the Company existing prior to the Effective Date of this Agreement. Correspondingly, it is hereby acknowledged and agreed that any Options granted by the Company to the Executive shall be reviewed and renegotiated at the request of either Party on a reasonably consistent basis during the Initial Term and any Renewal Period and, in the event that the Parties cannot agree, then the number of Options shall be increased on an annual basis by the percentage which is the average percentage of all increases to management stock options within the Company during the previous 12-month period; and in each case on similar and reasonable exercise terms and conditions. Any dispute respecting either the effectiveness or magnitude of the final number and terms hereunder shall be determined by arbitration in accordance with Article “9” hereinbelow.

4.7 Options subject to the following provisions. In this regard, and subject also to the following, it is hereby acknowledged and agreed that the exercise of any such Options shall be subject, at all times, to such vesting and resale provisions as may then be contained in the Company’s Option Plan and as may be finally determined by the Board of Directors, acting reasonably. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, it is hereby also acknowledged and agreed that, in the event that this Agreement is terminated in accordance with either of sections “3.6” or “5.3” herein; such that no Options Extension or any portion thereof is then available to the Executive; such portion of the within and remaining Options which shall have then not been exercised on the determined Effective Termination Date shall, notwithstanding the remaining exercise period of the Option(s), then be immediately terminated with no right of exercise by the Executive following such Effective Termination Date. In this regard, and in accordance with the terms and conditions of each final form of Option agreement, the Parties hereby also acknowledge and agree that:

- 11 -

	(a)	Registration of Option Shares under the Options: the Company will use reasonable commercial efforts to file with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) a registration statement on Form S-8 (the “Form S-8 Registration Statement”) within 90 calendar days after the Effective Date hereof covering the issuance of all Option Shares of the Company underlying the then issued Options, and such Form S-8 Registration Statement shall comply with all requirements of the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). In this regard the Company shall use its best efforts to ensure that the Form S-8 Registration Statement remains effective as long as such Options are outstanding, and the Executive fully understands and acknowledges that these Option Shares will be issued in reliance upon the exemption afforded under the Form S-8 Registration Statement which is available only if the Executive acquires such Option Shares for investment and not with a view to distribution. The Executive is familiar with the phrase “acquired for investment and not with a view to distribution” as it relates to the Securities Act and the special meaning given to such term in various releases of the SEC;

	(b)	Section 16 compliance: the Company shall ensure that all grants of Options are made to ensure compliance with all applicable provisions of the exemption afforded under Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Without limiting the foregoing, the Company shall have an independent committee of the Board of Directors approve each grant of Options to the Executive and, if required, by the applicable Regulatory Authorities and the shareholders of the Company. The Company shall file, on behalf of the Executive, all reports required to filed with the SEC pursuant to the requirements of Section 16(a) under the Exchange Act and applicable rules and regulations;

	(c)	Disposition of any Option Shares: the Executive further acknowledges and understands that, without in anyway limiting the acknowledgements and understandings as set forth hereinabove, the Executive agrees that the Executive shall in no event make any disposition of all or any portion of the Option Shares which the Executive may acquire hereunder unless and until:

	(i)	there is then in effect a “Registration Statement” under the Securities Act covering such proposed disposition and such disposition is made in accordance with said Registration Statement; or

	(ii)	(A) the Executive shall have notified the Company of the proposed disposition and shall have furnished the Company with a detailed statement of the circumstances surrounding the proposed disposition, (B) the Executive shall have furnished the Company with an opinion of the Executive’s own counsel to the effect that such disposition will not require registration of any such Option Shares under the Securities Act and (C) such opinion of the Executive’s counsel shall have been concurred in by counsel for the Company and the Company shall have advised the Executive of such concurrence; and

- 12 -

(d)

Payment for any Option Shares: it is hereby further acknowledged and agreed that, during the Initial Term and any Renewal Period, the Executive shall be entitled to exercise any Option granted hereunder and pay for the same by way of the prior agreement of the Executive, in the Executive’s sole and absolute discretion, and with the prior knowledge of the Company, to settle any indebtedness which may be due and owing by the Company under this Agreement in payment for the exercise price of any Option Shares acquired thereunder. In this regard, and subject to further discussion as between the Company and the Executive, together with the prior approval of the Board of Directors and the establishment by the Company of a new Option Plan predicated upon the same, it is envisioned that, when the Company is in a position to afford the same, the Company may adopt certain additional “cashless exercise” provisions respecting the granting and exercise of incentive stock options during the continuance of this Agreement.

4.8 Benefits. It is hereby acknowledged and agreed that, during the continuance of this Agreement, the Executive shall be entitled to participate fully in the Company’s current extended health plan (the “Benefits”) at the Company’s expense for any and all such Benefits from time to time.

5.1 Reporting. At such time or times as may be required by the Board of Directors, acting reasonably, the Executive will provide the Board of Directors with such information concerning the results of the Executive’s General Services and activities hereunder for the previous month as the Board of Directors may reasonably require.

5.2 Opinions, reports and advice of the Executive. The Executive acknowledges and agrees that all written and oral opinions, reports, advice and materials provided by the Executive to the Company in connection with the Executive’s engagement hereunder are intended solely for the Company’s benefit and for the Company’s uses only, and that any such written and oral opinions, reports, advice and information are the exclusive property of the Company. In this regard the Executive covenants and agrees that the Company may utilize any such opinion, report, advice and materials for any other purpose whatsoever and, furthermore, may reproduce, disseminate, quote from and refer to, in whole or in part, at any time and in any manner, any such opinion, report, advice and materials in the Company’s sole and absolute discretion.

In particular, and in this regard, the Executive specifically warrants to provide the General Services in a sound and professional manner as set by the specifications of the Company. In the event that the Board of Directors has a reasonable concern that the business as conducted by the Executive is being conducted in a way contrary to law or is reasonably likely to bring disrepute to the business interests or to the Company’s or the Executive’s reputation, the Company may require in writing to the Executive that the Executive make such alterations in the Executive’s business conduct as the Board of Directors may reasonably require, in its sole and absolute discretion.

In the event of any debate or dispute as to the reasonableness of the Board of Directors’ request or requirements, the judgment of the Board of Directors shall be deemed correct until such time as the matter has been determined by arbitration in accordance with Article “9” hereinbelow.

5.4 Right of ownership to the business and related Property. The Executive hereby acknowledges and agrees that any and all Company Business interests, together with any products or improvements derived therefrom and any trademarks or trade names used in connection with the same (collectively, the “Property”), are wholly owned and controlled by the Company. Correspondingly, neither this Agreement, nor the operation of the business contemplated by this Agreement, confers or shall be deemed to confer upon the Executive any interest whatsoever in and to any of the Property. In this regard the Executive hereby further covenants and agrees not to, during or after the Initial Term and the continuance of this Agreement, contest the title to any of the Property interests, in any way dispute or impugn the validity of the Property interests or take any action to the detriment of the Company’s interests therein. The Executive acknowledges that, by reason of the unique nature of the Property interests, and by reason of the Executive’s knowledge of and association with the Property interests during the Initial Term and any Renewal Period, the aforesaid covenant, both during the Initial Term of this Agreement and thereafter, is reasonable and commensurate for the protection of the legitimate business interests of the Company. As a final note, the Executive hereby further covenants and agrees to immediately notify the Company of any infringement of or challenge to any of the Property interests as soon as the Executive becomes aware of the infringement or challenge.

In addition, and for even greater certainty, the Executive hereby assigns to the Company the entire right, title and interest throughout the world in and to all work performed, writings, formulas, designs, models, drawings, photographs, design inventions, and other inventions, made, conceived, or reduced to practice or authored by the Executive or the Executive’s employees, either solely or jointly with others, during the performance of this Agreement, or which are made, conceived, or reduced to practice, or authored with the use of information or materials of the Company either received or used by the Executive during the performance of this Agreement or any extension or renewal thereof. The Executive shall promptly disclose to the Company all works, writings, formulas, designs, models, photographs, drawings, design inventions and other inventions made, conceived or reduced to practice, or authored by the Executive or the Executive’s employees as set forth above. The Executive shall sign, execute and acknowledge, or cause to be signed, executed and acknowledged without cost to Company or its nominees, patent, trademark or copyright protection throughout the world upon all such works, writings, formulas, designs, models, drawings, photographs, design inventions and other inventions; title to which the Company acquires in accordance with the provisions of this section. The Executive has acquired or shall acquire from each of the Executive’s employees, if any, the necessary rights to all such works, writings, formulas, designs, models, drawings, photographs, design inventions and other inventions made by such employees within the scope of their employment by the Executive in performing the General Services under this Agreement. The Executive shall obtain the cooperation of each such employee to secure to the Company or its nominees the rights to such works, writings, formulas, designs, models, drawings, photographs, design inventions and other inventions as the Company may acquire in accordance with the provisions of this section.

6.3 Breach by the Parties. For the purposes of sections “6.1” and “6.2” herein, the Parties hereby recognize and agree that a breach a Party of any of the covenants therein contained would result in irreparable harm and significant damage to the other Party that would not be adequately compensated for by monetary award. Accordingly, each of the Parties agrees that, in the event of any such breach, in addition to being entitled as a matter of right to apply to a Court of competent equitable jurisdiction for relief by way of restraining order, injunction, decree or otherwise as may be appropriate to ensure compliance with the provisions hereof, a Party will also be liable to the other Party, as liquidated damages, for an amount equal to the amount received and earned by that Party as a result of and with respect to any such breach. The Parties hereby acknowledge and agree that if any of the aforesaid restrictions, activities, obligations or periods are considered by a Court of competent jurisdiction as being unreasonable, the Parties agree that said Court shall have authority to limit such restrictions, activities or periods as the Court deems proper in the circumstances.

The Parties hereby each agree to indemnify and save harmless the other Party and including, where applicable, their respective subsidiaries and affiliates and each of their respective directors, officers, employees, consultants and agents (each such party being an “Indemnified Party”) harmless from and against any and all losses, claims, actions, suits, proceedings, damages, liabilities or expenses of whatever nature or kind and including, without limitation, any investigation expenses incurred by any Indemnified Party, to which an Indemnified Party may become subject by reason of the terms and conditions of this Agreement. 7.2 No indemnification. This indemnity will not apply in respect of an Indemnified Party in the event and to the extent that a Court of competent jurisdiction in a final judgment shall determine that the Indemnified Party was grossly negligent or guilty of willful misconduct. 7.3 Claim of indemnification. The Parties agree to waive any right they might have of first requiring the Indemnified Party to proceed against or enforce any other right, power, remedy, security or claim payment from any other person before claiming this indemnity.

7.4 Notice of claim. In case any action is brought against an Indemnified Party in respect of which indemnity may be sought against either of the Parties, the Indemnified Party will give both Parties prompt written notice of any such action of which the Indemnified Party has knowledge and the relevant Party will undertake the investigation and defense thereof on behalf of the Indemnified Party, including the prompt employment of counsel acceptable to the Indemnified Party affected and the relevant Party and the payment of all expenses. Failure by the Indemnified Party to so notify shall not relieve the relevant Party of such relevant Party’s obligation of indemnification hereunder unless (and only to the extent that) such failure results in a forfeiture by the relevant Party of substantive rights or defenses.

- 16 -

7.5 Settlement. No admission of liability and no settlement of any action shall be made without the consent of each of the Parties and the consent of the Indemnified Party affected, such consent not to be unreasonable withheld.

7.6 Legal proceedings. Notwithstanding that the relevant Party will undertake the investigation and defense of any action, an Indemnified Party will have the right to employ separate counsel in any such action and participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel will be at the expense of the Indemnified Party unless:

	(a)	such counsel has been authorized by the relevant Party;

	(b)	the relevant Party has not assumed the defense of the action within a reasonable period of time after receiving notice of the action;

	(c)	the named parties to any such action include that any Party hereto and the Indemnified Party shall have been advised by counsel that there may be a conflict of interest between any Party and the Indemnified Party; or

	(d)	there are one or more legal defenses available to the Indemnified Party which are different from or in addition to those available to any Party.

7.7 Contribution. If for any reason other than the gross negligence or bad faith of the Indemnified Party being the primary cause of the loss claim, damage, liability, cost or expense, the foregoing indemnification is unavailable to the Indemnified Party or insufficient to hold them harmless, the relevant Party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the Indemnified Party as a result of any and all such losses, claim, damages or liabilities in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits received by the relevant Party on the one hand and the Indemnified Party on the other, but also the relative fault of relevant Party and the Indemnified Party and other equitable considerations which may be relevant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the relevant Party shall in any event contribute to the amount paid or payable by the Indemnified Party, as a result of the loss, claim, damage, liability, cost or expense (other than a loss, claim, damage, liability, cost or expenses, the primary cause of which is the gross negligence or bad faith of the Indemnified Party), any excess of such amount over the amount of the fees actually received by the Indemnified Party hereunder.

Dear Xx. Xxxxxx:

Re:

Uranium Energy Corp. (the “Company”)
Letter of Intent Regarding Proposed Employment

This letter (the “Letter of Intent”) is intended to set out the basis upon which the Company is prepared to engage you (the “Employee”) as an employee. Specifically, the Company wishes to set out in this Letter of Intent the basic terms, if accepted by the Employee, upon which the Company is prepared to enter into a formal agreement (the “Formal Agreement”) between the Company and the Employee with respect to the terms of employment of the Employee by the Company.

The Formal Agreement shall have, among other terms to be agreed to by and between the Company and the Employee, the following terms:

The initial term (the “Initial Term”) of the Formal Agreement shall be 18 months.
The Company shall compensate the Employee as follows: (i) the Company shall pay the Employee an annual cash fee of US$250,000 (that is, US$375,000 over the 18-month Initial Term), to be paid in equal monthly installments (US$20,833.33 to be paid upon the effective date of the Formal Agreement (the “Effective Date”) and US$20,833.33 to be paid each month in advance thereafter on the monthly anniversary of the Effective Date until the expiration of the Initial Term); and (ii) on the Effective Date, the Company shall grant to the Employee options (the “Options”) to purchase 300,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, exercisable at the closing market price of the Company’s common shares on the business day immediately preceding the Effective Date, and vesting over an 18 month period (1/4 vesting upon the Effective Date, a further 1/4 vesting six months after the Effective Date, a further 1/4 vesting twelve months after the Effective Date, and the final 1/4 vesting eighteen months after the Effective Date).
The Company will, in good faith, consider the payment of a discretionary bonus to the Employee based on performance.
The Employee shall be entitled to the compensation set forth above, even if the Formal Agreement is terminated by the Company prior to the end of the Initial Term (unless the Company terminates the Formal Agreement for cause, in which case the Employee shall only be entitled to such cash compensation paid to or owing to the Employee as of the termination date and such Options that have vested as of the termination date). If the Employee is terminated by the Company without cause prior to the end of the Initial Term, all unvested Options shall immediately vest, and the Employee shall have the right to exercise any or all of the Options within 90 days after the termination date.

Suite 000 - 0000 X. Xxxxxxxx Xx. Xxxxxxxxx XX X0X 0X0 | t (000) 000 0000 f (000) 000 0000 xxx.xxxxxxxxxxxxx.xxx NYSE MKT: UEC

The Company shall reimburse the Employee for all pre-approved direct and reasonable expenses actually and properly incurred by the Employee for the benefit of the Company.
The Employee shall be eligible to participate in the Company’s health insurance benefits plan to participate in the Company’s 401(k) plan.

This Letter of Intent is not intended to be a binding offer or to be a complete statement of the terms and conditions of the Formal Agreement referred to above, or to create any legally enforceable obligations of the parties.

If the foregoing is acceptable to you, please so indicate by executing this Letter of Intent, faxing or emailing a copy and returning the original signed to the undersigned. Upon receipt of your acceptance and agreement, the Company will prepare the Formal Agreement referenced above.

Yours very truly,

Uranium Energy Corp.
