SECTION 1 - REGISTRANT'S BUSINESS AND OPERATIONS
Item 1.01 - Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On October 13, 2009, Uranium Energy Corp. (the "Company") entered into an agreement with URN Resources Inc. ("URN"), a subsidiary of Uranium One Inc., and an agreement in principle with Everest Exploration Inc. ("Everest"), to collectively acquire a 100% ownership interest in the South Texas Mining Venture, L.L.P. ("STMV"), a Texas limited liability partnership.
The Company has entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the "Agreement") with URN to acquire all of its 99% interest in STMV (the "Acquisition"). Under the terms of the Agreement the Company agreed to issue 2,500,000 shares of common stock of the Company to make the Acquisition. The closing of the Acquisition is subject to a number of conditions including, among other things, the receipt by both parties of certain consents and releases at closing.
The Company has also entered into an agreement in principle (the "Agreement in Principle") with Everest to purchase substantially all of the assets of Everest, including its 1% interest in STMV. To make the acquisition, the Company will pay 200,000 shares of common stock of the Company and a cash payment of $1,000,000 to be used, in part, for reclamation work to be performed by Everest and, subsequent to final closing, the Company, for final reclamation on two properties previously mined and restored by Everest. Among other things, the Agreement in Principle is subject to the Company's due diligence and the execution of a definitive asset purchase agreement.
The assets of STMV include the fully licensed and permitted Hobson ISR Processing Plant ("Hobson"), the La Palangana Uranium Project ("Palangana"), which is at an advanced stage of permitting, and a portfolio of exploration-stage properties located in South Texas. The Hobson facility is expected to form the basis of a new regional operating strategy for the Company's projects in South Texas. The Company anticipates that its Goliad and Nichols, and, after final closing, Palangana projects will now become satellite ISR operations, with loaded resins being transported to Hobson for further processing into dried U3O8 (commonly known as yellowcake).
As a result of the acquisition of STMV, the Company's Texas land position will now include five additional properties, all with recognized uranium mineralization, and which lie within approximately 100 miles of the licensed Hobson facility. The STMV acquisition will also include significant data files that document decades of South Texas-focused uranium exploration and mining.

(b) On the date that is sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, Buyer will provide to Seller (i) a list of persons who (x) were employed by STMV immediately prior to the Closing and (y) were subsequently terminated by STMV (each such person, an "Eligible Terminated Person"); (ii) reasonable evidence that STMV has delivered a severance payment in accordance with the Severance Policy (as defined in Schedule 3.15(a)) to each such Eligible Terminated Person (each such payment with respect to which reasonable evidence is so provided, a "Severance Payment"); and (iii) reasonable evidence that such Eligible Terminated Person has executed a waiver and release of claims in a form satisfactory to Seller, acting reasonably. Within five Business Days after Seller's receipt of such documentation from Buyer, Seller shall reimburse Buyer for each Severance Payment delivered by Buyer to each Eligible Terminated Person.
. Seller will use its reasonable commercial efforts to secure and obtain, on or prior to the Closing Date, either (i) the written consent of Bank of America, N.A. or its successor under the Office Lease (as defined in Schedule 3.5(a)) with respect to the indirect change of control of STMV, or (ii) written confirmation satisfactory to Buyer, acting reasonably, that such consent is not required.
. Buyer and Seller will cooperate and will use their reasonable commercial efforts to secure and obtain, on or prior to the Closing Date, the consents attached as Exhibit D hereto.
. If each of the Everest Conditions (defined below) has been satisfied on or prior to the Closing Date, Seller and Buyer will cause URN Ltd. and STMV, as applicable, to release Everest Exploration Inc., effective on the Closing Date, from any obligation to make any additional capital contributions with respect to periods prior to the Closing Date or to repay to URN Ltd.
32
any capital contributions that URN Ltd. funded to STMV on Everest Exploration Inc.'s behalf with respect to periods prior to the Closing Date. The term "Everest Conditions" means: (a) Buyer has completed (i) its purchase of all of the assets of Everest Exploration Inc., including, without limitation, its 1% interest in STMV, and (ii) its assumption of certain liabilities of Everest Exploration Inc., including, without limitation, Everest Exploration Inc.'s obligations and liabilities as a partner in STMV and the obligation of Everest Exploration Inc. to make additional capital contributions to STMV, (b) evidence acceptable to Seller in its sole discretion that Uranium One Inc. and its Affiliates have been released or will be released on the Closing Date from any and all potential obligations to, or claims by, Everest Exploration Inc. of any nature whatsoever and (c) Tom Clark and Jim Crain have executed and delivered to Seller the Consulting Agreement Releases.

34
VII. TERMINATION
. This Agreement may be terminated prior to the Closing:
35
The right of termination under Section 0 is in addition to any other rights Buyer or Seller may have under this Agreement or otherwise, and the exercise of a right of termination will not be an election of remedies and will not preclude an action for breach of this Agreement. If this Agreement is terminated, all continuing obligations of the parties under this Agreement will terminate except that Article 0 will survive indefinitely unless sooner terminated or modified by the parties in writing.
VIII. INDEMNIFICATION
36
37
specified in Buyer's notice will be admitted by Seller, and Seller will pay the amount of such Buyer Losses to Buyer. If Seller has timely disputed the liability of Seller with respect to a Buyer Claim (or an amended Buyer Claim) stating the amount of Buyer Losses claimed, Seller and Buyer will proceed in good faith to negotiate a resolution of such dispute. If a claim for indemnification has not been resolved within thirty (30) calendar days after delivery of the Seller's notice, Buyer may seek judicial recourse. If a Buyer Claim does not state the amount of Buyer Losses claimed, such omission will not preclude Buyer from recovering from Seller the amount of Buyer Losses described in such Buyer Claim if any such amount is subsequently provided in an amended Buyer Claim (although in that event, Seller will have the right to dispute the claim in accordance with the provisions of this Section 1.1(c)). In order to assert its right to indemnification under this Article 0, Buyer will not be required to provide any notice except as provided in this Section 1.1(c).
38
or greater than the Sub-Basket Amount, unless the total of all Seller Losses exceeds the Basket Amount, in which event the Seller will be entitled to indemnification only for such Seller Losses in excess of the Basket Amount. Buyer's liability for Seller Losses arising pursuant to Section 1.1(a)(i) or 1.1(a)(ii) or any Loss arising pursuant to Section 1.1(a) will not exceed the Cap. For clarity, none of the Indemnity Limitations shall apply to Buyer's liability under Section 1.1(a)(iii).
8.3 Third Party Actions Against Buyer
39
40
Neither a Buyer Indemnified Party nor Seller may concede, settle or compromise any Buyer Third Party Action without the consent of the other parties, which consents will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) if a Buyer Third Party Action seeks the issuance of an injunction, the specific election of an obligation or similar remedy or (ii) if the subject matter of a Buyer Third Party Action relates to the ongoing business of any Buyer Indemnified Party, which Buyer Third Party Action, if decided against any Buyer Indemnified Party, would materially adversely affect the ongoing business or reputation of any Buyer Indemnified Party, the Buyer Indemnified Party alone will be entitled to settle such Buyer Third Party Action in the first instance and, if the Buyer Indemnified Party does not settle such Buyer Third Party Action, Seller will then have the right to contest and defend (but not settle) such Buyer Third Party Action.
8.4 Third Party Actions Against Seller
41
Indemnified Party or cause the Seller Indemnified Party to waive any statutory or common law privileges, breach any confidentiality obligations owed to third parties or otherwise cause any confidential information of such Seller Indemnified Party to become public.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement:
42
defense, Seller will cooperate with Buyer to the extent reasonably requested by Buyer in the contest, defense and settlement of the Pending Barton Action, including providing reasonable access (upon reasonable notice) to the books, records and employees of Seller if relevant to the defense thereof, provided, that such cooperation will not unduly disrupt the operations of the business of Seller or cause Seller to waive any statutory or common law privileges, breach any confidentiality obligations owed to third parties or otherwise cause any confidential information of Seller to become public.
. Prior to or in connection with the Closing, the parties will have available to them all remedies available at law or in equity, including specific performance or other equitable remedies except as expressly limited elsewhere in this Agreement. After the Closing, the rights set forth in Sections 0 and 0, Article 0 and, to the extent applicable, Sections 0 and 0 will be the exclusive remedy for breach or inaccuracy of any of the representations and warranties contained in Article 0 through 0 of this Agreement and for breach of the pre-Closing covenants contained in this Agreement and will be in lieu of contract remedies. In the event such action is brought, the prevailing party's attorneys' fees and costs will be paid by the nonprevailing party.
. Any payment under this Article 0, Section 0 or Section 0 will be, for Tax purposes, to the extent permitted by Law, an adjustment to the Purchase Value. Each such payment shall be calculated on a net after tax basis, taking into account (i) any Tax savings actually realized by the recipient in the year of receipt of the payment resulting from the payment and (ii) any Tax liability actually imposed on the recipient in the year of receipt of the payment resulting from receipt of the payment.
. Buyer agrees that the amount of any Seller Losses will be grossed up to the extent necessary and appropriate such that the damages and costs that Seller actually recovers with respect to a Seller Claim fully reflect the fact that the payment by Buyer of those damages and costs will further impact the value of Seller's shareholding in Buyer.
IX. ALLOCATION OF TAXES; TAX RETURN
9.1 Allocation of Tax Liabilities
43
9.3 Income and Loss Allocation
. For purposes of this Article 0, in the case of any Taxes that are imposed on a periodic basis and are payable for a Tax period that includes (but does not end on) the Closing Date, the
44
portion of such Tax related to the Tax period ending on the Closing Date will (i) in the case of Taxes other than Taxes based upon or related to income, sales, gross receipts, wages, capital expenditures, expenses or any similar Tax base, be deemed to be the amount of such Tax for the entire period multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in the Tax period ending on the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of days in the entire Tax period and (ii) in the case of any Tax based upon or related to income, sales, gross receipts, wages, capital expenditures, expenses or any similar Tax base, be deemed equal to the amount that would be payable if the relevant Tax period had ended on the Closing Date. All determinations necessary to give effect to the foregoing allocations will be made in a manner consistent with prior practice of the Companies.
. After the Closing Date, Buyer and Seller will make available to the other, as reasonably requested, all information, records or documents (including state apportionment information) relating to Tax liabilities or potential Tax liabilities of the Companies with respect to (i) Tax periods ending on or prior to the Closing Date and (ii) Tax periods beginning before the Closing Date and ending after the Closing Date, but only with respect to the portion of such period up to and including the Closing Date. Buyer and Seller will preserve all such information, records and documents until the expiration of any applicable statute of limitations thereof. Buyer will prepare and provide to Seller any information or documents reasonably requested by Seller for Seller's use in preparing or reviewing the Returns referred to in Section 0.
. Each party will promptly notify the other in writing upon receipt by such party (or any of its Tax Affiliates) of notice of any pending or threatened Tax liabilities of the Companies for any (i) Tax period ending on or before the Closing Date or (ii) Tax period ending after the Closing Date but which includes the Closing Date. Seller will have the sole right to represent the interests of the Companies in any Tax audit or administrative or court proceeding for Tax periods ending on or prior to the Closing Date and to employ counsel of its choice at its expense, and Buyer and Seller agree to cooperate in the defense of any claim in such proceeding; provided, however, Seller shall not settle any such audit or administrative or court proceeding in a manner that would materially and adversely affect the Companies after the Closing Date without Buyer's prior written consent which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Seller will have the right to participate at its expense in representing the interests of the Companies in any Tax audit or administrative or court proceeding for any Tax period ending after the Closing Date, if and to the extent that such period includes any Tax period before the Closing Date, and to employ counsel of its choice at its expense. Seller and Buyer agree to cooperate in the defense of any claim in such proceeding. Buyer shall not settle any audit or administrative or court proceeding in a manner that would materially and adversely affect the Seller without the Seller's prior written consent, which consent may not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
45
. All tax sharing agreements between Seller, on the one hand, and the Companies, on the other hand, will be terminated as of the Closing Date after normal operations.
9.8 Tax Indemnification of Seller
. From and after the Closing Date, Seller shall protect, defend, indemnify and hold harmless Buyer and the Companies from any and all Taxes which are imposed on the Companies in respect of their income, business, property or operations or for which the Companies may otherwise be liable (A) for the Tax liabilities the Seller is responsible for under Section 0, (B) resulting by reason of the several liability of the Companies pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.1502 6 or any analogous state, local or foreign law or regulation or by reason of the Companies having been a member of any consolidated, combined or unitary group on or prior to the Closing Date, (C) attributable to any deferred income triggered into income by Treasury Regulation Section 1.1502 13, any excess loss accounts taken into income under Treasury Regulation Section 1.1502 19 and other similar items resulting from the Companies ceasing to be a member of any affiliated group (within the mean ing of Code Section 1504(a)), (D) except as otherwise provided in Section 9.1(b), in respect of any period ending after the Closing Date, attributable to events, transactions, sales, deposits, services or rentals occurring, received or performed in a period ending on or prior to the Closing Date, (E) in respect of any period ending after the Closing Date attributable to any change in accounting method employed by the Companies during any of its previous taxable years, (F) attributable to any discharge of indebtedness that may result from any capital contributions by the Seller (or an affiliate of the Seller) to the Companies, or cancellation, of any intercompany indebtedness owed by the Companies to Seller (or an Affiliate of Seller), and (G) resulting from the breach of the Seller's covenants regarding Tax matters, including, without limitation those set forth in this Article 0.
9.9 Tax Indemnification of Buyer
. From and after the Closing Date, Buyer shall protect, defend, indemnify and hold harmless the Seller from any and all Taxes which are imposed on the Companies in respect of its income, business, property or operations or for which the Companies may otherwise be liable: (A) for any period or partial period beginning after the Closing Date, (B) for the Taxes Buyer is
46
responsible for under Section 9.1(b) and (C) resulting from the breach of Buyer's covenants regarding Tax matters, including, without limitation those set forth in this Article 0; provided, however, Buyer shall not indemnify Seller with respect to any Taxes for which Seller is otherwise responsible under this Agreement.

Schedule 3.16
Seller -- Exceptions Environmental Permits
The Hobson Project uranium processing facility, the Tex-1 Project mining site and the Mt. Lucas Project mining site are licensed together as one project under Texas Radioactive Materials License No. L03626. This combined project has been subject to a Texas Commission on Environmental Quality ("TCEQ") enforcement action and Agreed Order #A9826-876-2007 relating to Radioactive Materials License L03626 ("Agreed Order") since June 2002. Pursuant to the Mining and Operating Agreement dated January 6, 2006, STMV assumes restoration obligations for the Hobson Project, and Everest Exploration, Inc. ("EEI") covenants to perform restoration and reclamation obligations with respect to the Tex-1 Project and the Mt. Lucas Project. EEI has postponed performance of its restoration and reclamation obligations by obtaining extensions to the Agreed Order from TCEQ.
EEI received correspondence dated December 19, 2008 from TCEQ in connection with the Acknowledgment of Receipt and Agreement of the Extension of Agreed Order #A9826-876-2007 setting forth a specific decommissioning timeline with respect to the Hobson Project, Tex-1 Project and Mt. Lucas Project. This correspondence and extension from TCEQ indicated that TCEQ will not allow further extensions of the decommissioning timeline. Subsequent to the December 19, 2008 correspondence, EEI informed STMV that EEI will not be able to meet one or more of the deadlines in the decommissioning timeline with respect to the Mt. Lucas Project. The Hobson Project and the Mt. Lucas Project are licensed as a single project and the financial surety for restoration of both projects is one trust account for the benefit of TCEQ. If EEI does not fulfill its reclamation and restoration obligations as to the Mt. Lucas Project, TCEQ could revoke Radioactive Materials License No. L03626, which is necessary for ST MV to operate its Hobson Project, and/or could exercise its rights to the trust account financial surety capturing funds allocated to restoration of the Hobson Project for restoration of the Mt. Lucas Project.
Seller understands that EEI has been given notice by TCEQ of a proposed fine in excess of $15,000, which is due and payable on October 14, 2009. On September 29, 2009, in a meeting with the TCEQ Executive Director, it was agreed that EEI and TCEQ would negotiate the amount of this proposed fine.

Re:
Proposed Purchase of Texas Assets of Everest Exploration Inc. by Uranium Energy Corp.
This letter agreement (the "Agreement") is intended to set out the basis upon which Uranium Energy Corp. (the "Purchaser") is prepared to negotiate for the purchase from Everest Exploration Inc. (the "Vendor") of substantially all of the assets of the Vendor (collectively, the "Purchased Assets", as set forth herein).
Specifically, we wish to set out the basic terms in this Agreement, if accepted by the Vendor, upon which the Purchaser is prepared to enter into a formal purchase agreement (the "Purchase Agreement", as set forth herein) between the Vendor and the Purchaser with respect to the purchase by the Purchaser of the Purchased Assets.
1. Description of Purchased Assets. The Purchaser will purchase substantially all of the assets (the "Purchased Assets") of the Vendor as at the Closing Date (as herein defined) which are described as listed in Appendix "A", which is attached hereto, and which is considered an integral part of this Agreement.
For the avoidance of doubt, the parties hereto understand and agree that the Purchased Assets shall include, but are not limited to, the following:
(a) all the real property owned or leased by the Vendor which shall include, without limitation, all uranium mining leases for the Tex-1 Uranium Project (the "TUP") and the Mt. Lucas Uranium Project (the "MLUP");
(b)
(i) the purchase of all of the furniture, fixtures, equipment and fixed assets owned by the Vendor (collectively, the "Owned Assets") as described as listed in Appendix "A-6", which is attached hereto, and which is considered an integral part of this Agreement; and
(ii) the right of the Purchaser to use, during the period of Mt. Lucas Reclamation (as herein defined), provided Purchaser shall maintain the lease and rental payments during the period of such use, the leased and
rent-to-own equipment controlled by the Vendor (collectively, the "Leased and Rented Assets") as also described as listed in Appendix "A-6";
(c) all rights of the Vendor under all contracts, agreements and leases of whatever nature in respect of the South Texas Mining Venture, LLP (the "STMV"), the TUP and the MLUP, and all equipment leases as listed in Appendix "A"; and
(d) all licenses, permits, approvals, consents, registrations and other authorizations issued to or held by the Vendor in respect of the STMV, the TUP and the MLUP.
Any and all assets of the Vendor which are excluded from the Purchased Assets are described as listed in Appendix "A-1", which is attached hereto, and which is considered an integral part of this Agreement.
2. Liabilities. At and subject to closing, the Purchaser shall assume, and indemnify and hold Vendor harmless from and against, all of the liabilities of the Vendor which are described as listed in Appendix "B", which is attached hereto, and which is considered an integral part of this Agreement.
3. Purchase Price Consideration. Subject to section 4 below, in consideration for purchasing the Purchased Assets the Purchaser shall provide the following purchase price consideration (collectively, the "Purchase Price Consideration") to and for the benefit of the Vendor in the following manner and at the following times:
(a) arrange to provide the Vendor with an aggregate of U.S.$300,000 in secured funds prior to the Closing Date (as herein defined; and each being an "Initial Cash Payment" herein) in the following manner: (i) U.S.$150,000 on the acceptance date of this Agreement; and (ii) an additional U.S.$150,000 within 30 calendar days of the acceptance of this Agreement; representing the parties' mutually agreed upon and documented direct and indirect expenditures on reclamation work currently being conducted and to be conducted by the Vendor on the TUP and the MLUP (collectively, the "Mt. Lucas Reclamation") since the acceptance date of this Agreement and up to including the Closing Date;
(b) pay and issue to the Vendor the following amounts on the Closing Date (as herein defined):
(i) pay to the Vendor a cash payment equal to U.S.$1,000,000 less the final and cumulative Initial Cash Payments made under subsection 3(a) above prior to the Closing Date (the "Further Cash Payment"); and which Further Cash Payment shall be used by the Vendor to ensure that all current, secured indebtedness of the Vendor has been satisfied and
2
released, to the sole and absolute discretion of the Purchaser, as at the Closing Date; and
(ii) issue to the Vendor 200,000 fully paid and restricted common shares from the treasury of the Purchaser (each a "Share"). The restrictions applicable to the Shares are disclosed by Purchaser in Appendix "D", which is attached hereto, and which is considered an integral part of this Agreement. In this respect the parties hereto understand, acknowledge and agree that the issuance of any said Shares is subject to the prior approval of NYSE Amex Equities stock exchange (the "NYSE Amex"); and
(c) if, as and when the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (the "TCEQ") provides either the Vendor, the Purchaser, and/or their respective successors or assigns as the case may be, with clearance certificates in respect of the Mt. Lucas Reclamation (each a "Clearance Certificate"), and there is then a positive balance between: (i) U.S.$2,200,000.00; and (ii) less the sum of the aggregate direct expenditures then made or incurred by Purchaser from and after the Closing Date for Mt. Lucas Reclamation (collectively, the "Direct Reclamation Expenditures") in order to obtain the Clearance Certificates, issue and pay to the Vendor, within 30 calendar days after the date of the last issued Clearance Certificate, an amount in cash equal to such positive balance. During the Mt. Lucas Reclamation after the Closing Date the Purchaser will provide the Vendor, within 30 calendar days after the first day of each calendar month, statements as to the amount of Direct Reclam ation Expenditures expended for the prior month. The Vendor shall have reasonable access, during normal business hours, to the Purchaser's books and records to audit any and all of the Purchaser's Direct Reclamation Expenditures from the Closing Date until the last issued Clearance Certificate is received.
4. Administration of the Purchased Assets. For greater certainty in connection with the Vendor's delivery of the Purchased Assets, the parties hereto further understand, acknowledge and agree as follows:
(a) all Purchased Assets will be immediately transferrable to the sole and absolute discretion, and to the order and direction, of the Purchaser as at the Closing Date (as herein defined) upon the delivery of the Cash Payment and the Shares in accordance with subsection 3(a) above; and
(b) if for any reason the transactions contemplated by this Agreement do not complete, any Initial Cash Payments paid by the Purchaser to the Vendor prior to the Closing Date (as herein defined) will be repaid in full by the Vendor, and until such Initial Cash Payment advances are repaid in full by the Vendor, the
3
Purchaser will hold a first charge security interest over the assets of the Vendor set forth in Appendix "E", which is attached hereto, and which is considered an integral part of this Agreement.
5. Purchaser Due Diligence Investigations. The Purchaser and its duly authorized representatives will be entitled to make such investigations of the Purchased Assets and such other matters relating to the transaction contemplated herein as the Purchaser deems advisable. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Vendor will make available or cause to be made available to the Purchaser and its duly authorized representatives all documentation in any way relating to the Purchased Assets. In particular, the Purchaser will engage in its independent assessment of the condition of, and any liabilities relating to, the STMV, the TUP, the MLUP and any equipment, licenses, permits and contracts included in the Purchased Assets, and the Vendor's representations and warranties relating to such assets and obligations, licenses and permits will be restricted in the Purchase Agreement (as herein defined) to matters relating to title only. Any obligation of the Purchaser herein or in the Purchase Agreement will be subject to the aforesaid investigation being to the satisfaction of the Purchaser, in its sole discretion.
6. Negotiation and Execution of the Purchase Agreement. While the Purchaser is conducting the due diligence investigations described in section 5 above, the Purchaser and the Vendor intend to negotiate in good faith to agree upon a form of purchase agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") setting out in detail the terms and conditions of the sale and purchase of the Purchased Assets. The Purchase Agreement will incorporate the terms and conditions set out in this Agreement together with such other terms and conditions as the parties consider necessary or desirable, including representations, warranties and covenants, indemnities from the parties relating to such representations, warrants and covenants, and conditions to closing. Unless the Purchaser is dissatisfied with the results of its due diligence investigations and notifies the Vendor accordingly, the Purchaser and Vendor intend to complete negotiations of the terms of the Purchase Agreement and to execute the Purcha se Agreement within 30 calendar days of the acceptance date of this Agreement. As set forth in section 3 above, the parties hereto understand, acknowledge and agree that the issuance of any Purchase Price Consideration Shares is subject to the prior approval of NYSE Amex. As such, the Purchaser agrees to use its reasonable commercial efforts to obtain such approval within 60 calendar days of the acceptance date of this Agreement. The closing of the purchase and sale of the Purchased Assets shall take place on a date agreed to by the parties in the Purchase Agreement (the "Closing Date"), which the parties hereto agree shall be a date that is the earlier of:
(a) 60 calendar days of the acceptance date hereof; and
4
(b) the date on which the Purchaser closes on its contemporaneous acquisition, among other assets, of all remaining interests in STMV;
unless otherwise extended by mutual agreement of the parties hereto.
7. Employees. The Purchaser shall have the right, but no obligation, to offer employment to employees of the Vendor. In the event the Purchaser determines to offer employment to any of the Vendor's employees, the Purchaser shall determine the terms of any such offer(s) in its sole discretion.
8. Representations, Warranties and Covenants. In the Purchase Agreement each party will:
(a) subject to the provisions of Section 5 above, make such representations and warranties as are standard in an asset purchase transaction having regard to the Purchased Assets; and
(b) provide normal covenants for an asset purchase transaction and including, without limitation:
(i)
(A) deliver favorable legal opinions as to all relevant matters;
(B) deliver all required consents to the transfer of the Purchased Assets and the Purchase Price Consideration;
(C) deliver all documentation necessary to transfer title to the Purchased Assets to the Purchaser and the Shares to Vendor; and
(D) take all steps to satisfy all pre-conditions, whether statutory, contractual or otherwise, to permit the sale of the Purchased Assets contemplated herein free and clear of all liens, mortgages, charges, security interests, pledges, encumbrances, restrictions, claims and demands whatsoever and including, without limitation, taking the steps outlined in Appendix "C", which is attached hereto, and which is considered an integral part of this Agreement; and
(ii) covenants by the Purchaser to deliver the Purchase Price Consideration as set forth in sections 3 and 4 above.
In respect of the foregoing, the Vendor shall have no responsibility (other than to use its reasonable best efforts) regarding the securing of any third party consents to the transfer of its 1% interest in the STMV, the related Radioactive Mining License or any other permit, license or asset that is part of the Purchased Assets.
5
9. Indemnities. While the Purchase Agreement will contain usual indemnities applicable to asset purchase transactions, and except as contemplated in section 2, the Purchase Agreement will also contain further indemnities in favour of the Purchaser indemnifying it from any and all liabilities which the Vendor becomes obligated to pay arising in respect of time periods prior to or events occurring prior to the time of closing. Any pending litigation or claims, except as contemplated by section 2, against the Vendor as of the Closing Date will be, and remain, the responsibility of the Vendor.
10. Conditions of Closing. The purchase and sale of the Purchased Assets is subject to the usual conditions of closing in an asset purchase transaction, all of which will be included in the Purchase Agreement and including, without limitation, the following:
(a) all of the covenants of the parties will have been performed;
(b) all of the representations and warranties of the parties will be true and correct at the time they were given and as at the Closing Date;
(c) the Purchaser will be satisfied in its sole discretion as to the results of its due diligence investigation with respect to the Purchased Assets;

(e) all consents and approvals to the sale and purchase of the Purchased Assets, as reasonably determined by the parties, will have been obtained;
(f) except as disclosed by either party, no action or proceeding will be pending or threatened to enjoin, restrict or affect the purchase of the Purchased Assets;

(h) the Vendor will have complied with any applicable bulk legislation in respect of the sale of the Purchased Assets to the Purchaser;

(j) the transaction shall have been approved by the vote of two-thirds of the Vendor's shareholders;
6
(k) the Purchaser shall simultaneously close its acquisition of the remaining 99% interest in the STMV; and
(l) James T. Clark and Tom M. Crain, Jr. shall have executed consulting agreements or amended consulting agreements with the Purchaser and/or the STMV at closing.
11. Confidentiality. All matters pertaining to this Agreement, the Purchase Agreement and the transactions contemplated herein will be held in the strictest confidence and no public announcement with respect to this Agreement, the Purchase Agreement or the transactions contemplated herein will be made by any party hereto without consent of the other parties, except where required by law.
12. Non-Disclosure of this Agreement; Non-Solicitation of Other Proposals.

13. Expenses of the Vendor. All legal, tax and accounting expenses incurred in connection with the transaction of purchase and sale herein provided for or related thereto by or on behalf of the Vendor are not for the account of the Purchaser and will not constitute any assumed liabilities hereunder, and the Purchase Agreement will provide an indemnity from the Vendor from and against any claims whatsoever for such legal, tax and accounting expenses.
14. Disclosure of Information. From and after the date hereof the Vendor will disclose, and will cause the Vendor's management to disclose, to the Purchaser on a timely basis during the due diligence investigation and thereafter any and all information known to them or which hereafter becomes known to them prior to the Closing Date which might reasonably be expected to affect materially the decision of a prospective purchaser to complete the transaction herein contemplated or the value of the Purchased Assets.
15. No Brokers or Agents. Each of the Vendor, on the one hand, and the Purchaser, on the other hand, represent and warrant to the other that it has not retained any broker, agent or other intermediary in connection with the transaction herein contemplated.

Save and except as otherwise provided for herein, no party may sell, assign, pledge, mortgage or otherwise encumber all or any part of its interests herein or under any formal Purchase Agreement without the prior written consent of the other party hereto; provided, however, that the Purchaser may at anytime, and at its sole and absolute
7
discretion and without the prior approval of the Vendor, assign and transfer its interests herein and under any formal Purchase Agreement to any wholly-owned subsidiary of the Purchaser subject, at all times, to the requirement that any such subsidiary remain wholly-owned by the Purchaser failing which any such interests must be immediately transferred back to Purchaser; and, provided further, that any transfer of all or any part of the Purchaser's interests herein or under any Purchase Agreement to its wholly-owned subsidiary shall be accompanied by the written agreement of any such subsidiary to assume the obligations of the Purchaser and to be bound by the terms and conditions hereof and thereof.
