DENISON MINES CORP.

of its
OFFER TO PURCHASE
all of the outstanding common shares of
ROCKGATE CAPITAL CORP.
on the basis of 0.192 of a common share of Denison Mines Corp.
for each common share of Rockgate Capital Corp.
as set out in the Offer and Circular

Denison Mines Corp. ("Denison") hereby gives notice that it is extending its offer dated September 19, 2013, as extended (the "Offer"), upon and subject to the terms and conditions set out in the Offer, to purchase all of the issued and outstanding common shares ("Shares") of Rockgate Capital Corp. ("Rockgate") together with any associated rights issued under Rockgate's shareholder rights plan ("SRP Rights"), including all Shares that may become issued and outstanding after the date of the Offer but before the Expiry Time (as defined below) upon the exercise, exchange or conversion of the Options (as such terms are defined in the Offer and Circular (as defined below)) or any other outstanding rights, on the basis of, 0.192 of a common share of Denison (a "Denison Share"), for each Share as set out in the Offer and Circular. The expiry time of the Offer is being extended to 4:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on December 6, 2013 (the "Expiry Time").


The Offer has been extended and is now open for acceptance until 4:00 p.m. (Toronto time)
on December 6, 2013, unless the Offer is further extended by Denison.


This Notice of Extension should be read in conjunction with the Offer and the accompanying take-over bid circular dated September 19, 2013 (the "Offer and Circular") and the letter of transmittal and election form (the "Letter of Transmittal") and notice of guaranteed delivery (the "Notice of Guaranteed Delivery") that accompanied the Offer and Circular, all of the provisions of which are incorporated herein by reference (subject to the amendments thereto contained in this Notice of Extension). Unless the context requires otherwise, capitalized terms used in this Notice of Extension and not defined herein that are defined in the Offer and Circular have the respective meanings ascribed thereto in the Offer and Circular.


Shareholders who have validly deposited and not withdrawn their Shares need take no further action to accept the Offer. Shareholders who wish to accept the Offer must properly complete and duly execute the Letter of Transmittal (printed on YELLOW paper) that accompanied the Offer and Circular, or a manually executed facsimile thereof, and deposit it, at or prior to the Expiry Time, together with certificate(s) or DRS Advice(s) representing their Shares and all other required documents, with the Depositary at its office in Toronto, Ontario specified in the Letter of Transmittal, in accordance with the instructions in the Letter of Transmittal. Shareholders may also accept the Offer by following the procedure for guaranteed delivery set forth in Section 3 of the Offer, "Manner of Acceptance — Procedure for Guaranteed Delivery", using the Notice of Guaranteed Delivery (printed on PINK paper) that accompanied the Offer and Circular. Alternatively, Shareholders may accept the Offer by following the procedures for book-entry transfer of Shares set forth in Section 3 of the Offer, "Manner of Acceptance — Acceptance by Book-Entry Transfer". The Letter of Transmittal and the Notice of Guaranteed Delivery that accompanied the Offer and Circular are deemed to be amended to reflect the terms and conditions of this Notice of Extension.

Persons whose Shares are registered in the name of an investment advisor, stockbroker, bank, trust company or other nominee should contact such nominee for assistance if they wish to accept the Offer in order to take the necessary steps to be able to deposit such Shares under the Offer. Intermediaries likely have established tendering cut-off times that are up to 48 hours prior to the Expiry Time. Shareholders must instruct their brokers or other intermediaries promptly if they wish to tender.

Shareholders will not be required to pay any fee or commission if they accept the Offer by depositing their Shares directly with the Depositary.

Questions and requests for assistance may be directed to the Depositary or to the Information Agent for the Offer, Laurel Hill Advisory Group. The Information Agent can be contacted at 1-877-452-7184 toll free or 1-416-304-0211 outside of North America or by e-mail at assistance@laurelhill.com. Additional copies of this document, the Offer and Circular, the Letter of Transmittal and the Notice of Guaranteed Delivery may be obtained without charge on request from the Information Agent and are accessible on the Canadian Securities Administrators' website at www.sedar.com and the SEC's website at www.sec.gov. The foregoing website addresses are provided for informational purposes only and no information contained on, or accessible from, the foregoing websites is incorporated by reference herein, except where specifically stated.

No broker, dealer, salesperson or other person has been authorized to give any information or make any representation other than those contained in this document, and, if given or made, such information or representation must not be relied upon as having been authorized by Denison, the Depositary or the Information Agent.

The Offer and Circular does not generally address tax consequences of the Offer to Shareholders in any jurisdiction outside of Canada or the United States. Shareholders in a jurisdiction outside of Canada or the United States should be aware that the disposition of Shares may have tax consequences which may not be described in the Offer and Circular. Accordingly, Shareholders outside of Canada and the United States should consult their own tax advisors with respect to tax considerations applicable to them.

The Offer is made by a Canadian issuer that is permitted, under a multijurisdictional disclosure system adopted by the United States, to prepare the Offer and Circular in accordance with the disclosure requirements of Canada. Shareholders should be aware that such requirements are different from those of the United States. Financial statements incorporated by reference in the Offer and Circular have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board. They may not be comparable to financial statements of United States companies.

Shareholders should be aware that the disposition of Shares and the acquisition of Denison Shares by them as described in the Offer and Circular may have tax consequences in the United States, Canada and other jurisdictions. Such consequences may not be fully described in the Offer and Circular and such Shareholders are urged to consult their tax advisors. See Section 19 of the Circular, "Certain Canadian Federal Income Tax Considerations", and Section 20 of the Circular, "Certain United States Federal Income Tax Considerations".

The enforcement by Shareholders of civil liabilities under United States federal securities laws may be affected adversely by the fact that Denison exists under the laws of Ontario, that some or all of its officers and directors may reside outside the United States, that some or all of the experts named in the Offer and Circular may reside outside the United States and that a substantial portion of the assets of Denison and the above-mentioned persons are located outside the United States.

THE SECURITIES TO BE DELIVERED IN CONNECTION WITH THE OFFER HAVE NOT BEEN APPROVED OR DISAPPROVED BY THE SEC OR ANY STATE SECURITIES COMMISSION NOR HAS THE SEC OR ANY STATE SECURITIES COMMISSION PASSED UPON THE ACCURACY OR ADEQUACY OF THE OFFER AND CIRCULAR. ANY REPRESENTATION TO THE CONTRARY IS A CRIMINAL OFFENCE.

CURRENCY

        All dollar references herein and in the Offer and Circular are in Canadian dollars, except where otherwise indicated. Canadian dollars are referred to as "Canadian dollars", "C$" or "$" and United States dollars are referred to as "U.S. dollars" or "US$". On November 29, 2013, the Bank of Canada noon rate of exchange for U.S. dollars was C$1.00 = US$0.9435.


FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

        Certain statements contained in this Notice of Extension and the Offer and Circular, including the summary thereof, and in the documents incorporated by reference therein, that are referred to herein and therein as "forward looking statements", constitute "forward looking statements" within the meaning of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and the rules and releases made by the SEC, all as amended from time to time, and "forward looking information" under the provisions of Canadian provincial securities laws. When used in such documents, the words "anticipate", "believe", "could", "expect", "estimate", "forecast", "intend", "may", "outlook", "planned", "project", "should", "will", "would" and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward looking statements.

        Forward looking statements in this Notice of Extension and the Offer and Circular, including the summary thereof, and in the documents incorporated by reference therein, include, but are not limited to statements regarding: Denison's outlook for 2013 and future periods; expectations as to the anticipated timing, mechanics, completion and settlement of the Offer; the market for and listing of Shares and Rockgate's status as a reporting issuer after completion of the Offer; the value of the Denison Shares received as consideration under the Offer; the ability of Denison to complete the transactions contemplated by the Offer; future earnings, and the sensitivity of earnings to uranium and other metal prices; Denison's expectations regarding toll milling of Cigar Lake ores; future royalty and tax payments and rates; anticipated levels or trends for prices of uranium and byproduct metals mined by Denison or for exchange rates between currencies in which capital is raised, revenue is generated or expenses are incurred by Denison; estimates of future mineral production and sales; estimates of future costs, including mining costs and other expenses; estimates of future capital expenditures and exploration expenditure and development expenditures and other cash needs, and expectations as to the funding thereof; the projected exploration, development and exploitation of certain ore deposits, including estimates of exploration, development and production and other capital costs and estimates of the timing of such exploration, development and production or decisions with respect thereto; Denison's expectations regarding additions to its mineral reserves and resources through acquisitions; estimates of mineral reserves, mineral resources and ore grades and statements regarding anticipated future exploration results; estimates of cash flow; estimates of mine life; anticipated timing of events with respect to Denison's mine sites, mine construction projects and exploration projects; estimates of future costs and other liabilities for environmental remediation and reclamation obligations; anticipated legislation and regulation regarding climate change and estimates of the impact on Denison; and other anticipated trends with respect to Denison's capital resources and results of operations.

        Forward looking statements are necessarily based upon a number of factors and assumptions that, while considered reasonable by Denison as of the date of such statements, are inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies. The factors and assumptions of Denison upon which the forward looking statements in this Notice of Extension and the Offer and Circular, including the summary thereof, and in the documents incorporated by reference therein, are based and which may prove to be incorrect, include, but are not limited to, the factors and assumptions set out in the Notice of Extension and the Offer and Circular, including the summary thereof, as well as: global financial conditions; the ability of Denison to meet its obligations to its creditors and the uncertainty of funding; volatility in the market price of Denison's shares and the risk of dilution from future equity financings; the impact of volatility in uranium prices on the valuation of Denison's mineral reserves and resources and the market price of its shares; public acceptance of nuclear energy and competition from other energy sources; failure to realize benefits from transactions; competition for properties; the imprecision of mineral reserves and resources estimation; Denison's ability to expand and replace its mineral reserves and resources; uncertainty as to reclamation and decommissioning liabilities; reliance on other operators; technical innovation rendering Denison's products and services obsolete; property title risk; liabilities inherent in mining operations and the adequacy of insurance coverage; delays in obtaining permits and licences for development properties; the speculative nature of exploration and

4


development projects; difficulty complying with changing government regulations and policy, including without limitation, compliance with environment, health and safety regulations; uncertainty surrounding Denison's operations in foreign jurisdictions; potential claims of Canada's First Nations people; dependence on key personnel; the potential influence of Denison's largest Shareholder, Korea Electric Power Corporation; potential conflicts of interest for Denison's directors who are engaged in similar businesses; and limitations of disclosure and internal controls.

        The forward looking statements in this Notice of Extension and the Offer and Circular, including the summary thereof, reflect Denison's views as at the date of the Offer and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which could cause the actual results, performance or achievements of Denison or industry results to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward looking statements. These risks include risks relating to Offer, including, without limitation, that Denison may be unable to complete the Offer or the completion of the Offer may be more costly than expected because, among other reasons, conditions to the completion of the Offer may not be satisfied; problems may arise with the ability to successfully integrate the businesses of Denison and Rockgate; the parties may be unable to obtain regulatory approvals required for the Offer; Denison may not be able to achieve the benefits from the acquisition or it may take longer than expected to achieve those benefits; and the acquisition may involve unexpected costs or unexpected liabilities. For a further discussion of risks and material factors or assumptions underlying the forward looking statements in this Notice of Extension and the Offer and Circular, see Section 17 of the Circular, "Risk Factors", and Denison's Annual Information Form filed on SEDAR dated March 13, 2013 for the financial year ended December 31, 2012 and incorporated by reference in the Offer and Circular. Given these uncertainties, investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward looking statements, which speak only as of the date made. Except as otherwise required by law, Denison expressly disclaims any obligation or undertaking to release publicly any updates or revisions to any such statements to reflect any change in Denison's expectations or any change in events, conditions or circumstances on which any such statement is based. The Offer and Circular and documents incorporated by reference therein contain information regarding anticipated total cash costs per pound of uranium at certain of Denison's mines and mine development projects. Denison believes that this generally accepted industry measure is a realistic indicator of operating performance and is useful in allowing year over year comparisons. Investors are cautioned that this information may not be suitable for other purposes.

NOTICE OF EXTENSION

        This Notice of Extension supplements the Offer and Circular, the Letter of Transmittal and the Notice of Guaranteed Delivery pursuant to which Denison is offering to purchase all of the outstanding Shares upon and subject to the terms and conditions set out in the Offer and Circular, the Letter of Transmittal and the Notice of Guaranteed Delivery, each as may be amended, varied and supplemented from time to time.

        Except as otherwise set forth in this Notice of Extension, the information, terms and conditions previously set forth in the Offer and Circular, the Letter of Transmittal and the Notice of Guaranteed Delivery continue to be applicable in all respects and this Notice of Extension should be read in conjunction with the Offer and Circular, the Letter of Transmittal and the Notice of Guaranteed Delivery, all of the provisions of which are incorporated herein by reference, subject to the amendments thereto contained in this Notice of Extension.

December 2, 2013

TO: THE HOLDERS OF SHARES OF ROCKGATE

1.     Recent Developments

        On November 22, 2013, following the resignations of Doug Ford, Edward Ford, Allen Ambrose, Gordon Neal and Philip Williams from Rockgate's board of directors, Ron Hochstein, William Rand, Catherine Stefan and Robert Dengler of Denison Mines Corp. were appointed to fill the resulting vacancies. Rockgate also received resignations from Karl Kottmeier, Doug Ford and Kirk Gamely in their capacities as officers. Ron Hochstein (President and CEO), William Rand (Chairman), David Cates (Chief Financial Officer) and Sheila Colman (Corporate Secretary) were appointed as officers of Rockgate.

        On November 29, Denison announced that it had taken up approximately 2,750,531 Shares which had been deposited into the Offer since the first take-up of Shares on November 18, 2013 resulting in it owning approximately 88% of the issued and outstanding Shares. Denison has extended the expiry time of the Offer to provide further opportunity for the remaining shareholders of Rockgate to deposit their shares. Denison has determined that the Thanksgiving Day holiday in the United States prevented certain shareholders from depositing their shares in a timely manner.

        On November 29, 2013, the closing price of the Shares on the TSX was C$0.225 and the closing price of the Denison Shares on the TSX was C$1.19 and on the NYSE MKT was US$1.15.

2.     Extension of Offer

        By notice to the Depositary given on November 29, 2013, Denison has extended the time for acceptance of the Offer until 4:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on December 6, 2013, unless the Offer is further extended by Denison. Accordingly, the definition of "Expiry Time" in the Offer and Circular is deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following definition:

    "Expiry Time" means 4:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on December 6, 2013, or such later time or times and date or dates as may be fixed by Denison from time to time pursuant to Section 5 of the Offer, "Extension, Variation or Change in the Offer";

        In addition, all references to December 6, 2013 in the Offer and Circular, the Letter of Transmittal and the Notice of Guaranteed Delivery (to the extent that they relate to the Expiry Time) now refer to December 6, 2013.

3.     Time for Acceptance

        The Offer is now open for acceptance until 4:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on December 6, 2013, or such later time or times and date or dates as may be fixed by Denison from time to time pursuant to Section 5 of the Offer, "Extension, Variation or Change in the Offer". Denison's present intention is not to extend the Offer beyond the Expiry Date.

6


4.     Manner of Acceptance

        Shares may be deposited under the Offer in accordance with the provisions set forth in Section 3 of the Offer, "Manner of Acceptance".

5.     Take-Up of and Payment for Deposited Shares

        Denison will take-up and pay for Shares deposited under the Offer in the manner set forth in Section 6 of the Offer, "Take-Up and Payment for Deposited Shares".

6.     Withdrawal of Deposited Shares

        Shareholders have the right to withdraw Shares deposited under the Offer in the circumstances and in the manner set forth in Section 8 of the Offer, "Withdrawal of Deposited Shares".

7.     Amendments to Offer Documents

        The Offer and Circular, the Letter of Transmittal and the Notice of Guaranteed Delivery shall be read together with this Notice of Extension in order to give effect to the extension of the Expiry Time to 4:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on December 6, 2013, unless the Offer is further extended by Denison.

8.     Statutory Rights

        Securities legislation of the provinces and territories of Canada provides Shareholders with, in addition to any other rights they may have at law, one or more rights of rescission, price revision or to damages if there is a misrepresentation in a circular or notice that is required to be delivered to the Shareholders. However, such rights must be exercised within prescribed time limits. Shareholders should refer to the applicable provisions of the securities legislation of their province or territory for particulars of those rights or consult a lawyer.

9.     Directors' Approval

        The contents of this Notice of Extension have been approved, and the sending, communication or delivery thereof to the Shareholders has been authorized, by the board of directors of Denison.

PART II
INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED TO BE DELIVERED
TO OFFEREES OR PURCHASERS

Indemnification

        As permitted by the Ontario Business Corporations Act, the Registrant's Bylaws provide that the Registrant will indemnify its directors and officers and any former directors or officers of the Registrant or persons who act or acted at the Registrant's request as a director or officer of a body corporate of which the Registrant is or was a shareholder or creditor, and his or her heirs and legal representatives, against all costs, charges and expenses, including an amount paid to settle an action or satisfy a judgment, reasonably incurred by him or her in respect of any civil, criminal or administrative action or proceeding to which he or she is made a party by reason of being or having been a director or officer of the Registrant or such body corporate, if,

    (a)
    he or she acted honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of the Registrant; and

    (b)
    in the case of a criminal or administrative action or proceeding that is enforced by a monetary penalty, he or she had reasonable grounds for believing that his or her conduct was lawful.

        The Ontario Business Corporations Act also provides, and the Registrant's Bylaws permit, that, with the approval of the court, such persons may also be indemnified by the Registrant in respect of an action by or on behalf of the Registrant or any such body corporate to procure a judgment in its favor, to which the person is made a party by reason of being or having been a director or officer of the Registrant or such body corporate. Generally, any director or officer who is entitled to an indemnity may also be indemnified by the Registrant for all of his or her costs, charges and expenses reasonably incurred in defending his or her position, if he or she was substantially successful in his or her defense and fulfills the conditions in clauses (a) and (b) above.

        The Registrant maintains liability insurance for its directors and officers acting in their respective capacities in an aggregate amount of Cdn$20,000,000, subject to the following deductibles: (a) Cdn$250,000 per occurrence; (b) Cdn$250,000 for a loss due to a claim under applicable Canadian securities laws; and (c) $250,000 for a loss due to a claim under applicable U.S. securities laws. The premium paid by the Registrant in 2012 for this coverage was Cdn$155,530 for the period from November 1, 2012 to November 1, 2013. No amounts were paid by individual directors and officers for this coverage.

        In addition, the Registrant has entered into separate Indemnity Agreements with each of its officers and directors, which Agreements provide for indemnification of the director or officer against certain judgments, penalties, fines and expenses incurred by each such officer or director in connection with certain threatened, pending or completed investigations, inquiries, hearings, actions or proceedings.

        Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

        The above discussion of the Registrant's Bylaws and Ontario law is not intended to be exhaustive and is qualified in its entirety by such Bylaws, the Registrant's Certificate of Incorporation and Ontario Law.
