Section 1 – Registrant’s Business and Operations

Item 1.01 Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On March 6, 2016, Uranium Energy Corp., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”) with institutional investors, pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell an aggregate of 12,364,704 shares of its common stock (the “Shares”) and warrants to purchase a total of 6,182,351 shares of its common stock (the “Warrants”) to such investors for gross proceeds of approximately $10.51 million. The Shares and Warrants are being sold in units (the “Units”), with each Unit consisting of one Share and 0.50 of one Warrant. Each whole Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of common stock (each, a “Warrant Share”) at an exercise price of $1.20 per Warrant Share, and is exercisable at any time within three years from the date of issuance (collectively, the “Offering”). The purchase price per Unit is $0.85.

The Company entered into an agency agreement dated March 9, 2016, (the “Agency Agreement”) with Dundee Securities Ltd., Dundee Securities Inc. and Rodman & Renshaw, a unit of H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC (collectively, the “Placement Agents”). Pursuant to the Agency Agreement, the Placement Agents agreed to use their reasonable best efforts to arrange for the sale of the Units in a registered direct public offering. As consideration, the Company agreed to pay aggregate placement agent fees of 6% of the gross proceeds of the Offering to the Placement Agents and to Cantor Fitzgerald Canada Corporation and Haywood Securities Inc., the Company’s financial advisors, in connection with the Offering, with reduced placement agent fees of 2% payable on gross proceeds sold to purchasers included on a president’s list. The Company also agreed to issue to the Placement Agents and the financial advisors the same percentages of common stock purchase warrants to purchase shares of common stock (each, an “Agent Warrant”), which each such Agent Warrant having the same terms as the Warrants.

The net proceeds to the Company from the registered direct public Offering, after deducting the placement agent fees and expenses, the Company’s estimated offering expenses, and excluding the proceeds, if any, from the exercise of the Warrants issued in the offering or the Agent Warrants, are expected to be approximately $10.08 million.

The Shares, Warrants, Warrant Shares, Agent Warrants and Agent Warrant Shares will be issued pursuant to a prospectus supplement dated as of March 9, 2016, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) in connection with a takedown from the Company’s shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-193104), which became effective on January 10, 2014, and the base prospectus dated as of January 10, 2014 contained in such registration statement.

The legal opinion of McMillan LLP relating to the legality of the issuance and sale of the Shares, Warrants, Warrant Shares, Agent Warrants and Agent Warrant Shares is attached as Exhibit 5.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
