ENERGY FUELS INC.

Preferred Shares
Units
Debt Securities
US$100,000,000

Energy Fuels Inc. (the “Company” or “Energy Fuels”) may from time to time offer and issue common shares, warrants to purchase common shares or debt securities, subscription receipts, preferred shares, units and debt securities (collectively, the “Securities”), up to a total price of US$100,000,000 during the 25-month period that this short form base shelf prospectus (the “Prospectus”), including any amendments hereto, remains effective. Securities may be offered separately or together, in amounts, at prices and on terms to be determined based on market conditions at the time of sale and set forth in one or more accompanying shelf prospectus supplements (each, a “Prospectus Supplement”).

An investment in the Securities involves a high degree of risk and must be considered speculative due to the nature of the Company’s business and the present stage of exploration and development of certain of its properties. Prospective investors should carefully consider the risk factors described in this Prospectus under “Risk Factors” and “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements”.

This offering is made by a Canadian issuer that is permitted under a multi-jurisdictional disclosure system adopted by the United States and Canada to prepare this Prospectus in accordance with Canadian disclosure requirements. Prospective investors should be aware that such requirements are different from those applicable to issuers in the United States. Financial statements incorporated herein by reference have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”), and may not be comparable to financial statements of United States companies.


Prospective investors should be aware that the acquisition of the Securities described herein may have tax consequences both in the United States and in Canada. Such consequences for investors who are resident in, or citizens of, the United States may not be described fully herein or in any applicable Prospectus Supplement. Prospective investors should read the tax discussion contained in this Prospectus under the heading “Certain Income Tax Considerations” as well as the tax discussion contained in the applicable Prospectus Supplement with respect to a particular offering of Securities.

The enforcement by investors of civil liabilities under United States federal securities laws may be affected adversely by the fact that the Company is governed by the laws of Canada, that some of its officers and directors are residents of Canada, that some or all of the underwriters or experts named in the registration statement are residents of a foreign country, and that a portion of the assets of the Company and said persons are located outside the United States.

Neither the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, nor any state securities regulator, has approved or disapproved the Securities offered hereby or passed upon the accuracy or adequacy of this Prospectus. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offence.

The specific terms of any offering of Securities will be set out in the applicable Prospectus Supplement including, where applicable: (i) in the case of common shares, the number of shares offered, the offering price and any other specific terms; (ii) in the case of warrants, the designation, number and terms of common shares or debt securities purchasable on the exercise of the warrants, any procedures that will result in adjustment of these numbers, the exercise price, dates and periods of exercise and any other specific terms; (iii) in the case of subscription receipts, the designation, number and terms of the subscription receipts and the securities to be acquired upon conversion of subscription receipts; (iv) in the case of preferred shares, the class, series, description, number and terms, whether any conversion or exchange rights will be attached to the preferred shares, and whether the Company or holder may redeem its preferred shares at its option; (v) in the case of units, the class of Securities forming part of the units, and the description, number and terms thereof; and (vi) in the case of debt securities, the designation of the debt securities, any limit on the aggregate principal amount of the debt securities, whether payment on the debt securities will be senior or subordinated to the Company’s other liabilities and obligations, whether the debt securities will be secured by any of the Company’s assets or guaranteed by any other person, whether the debt securities will bear interest, the interest rate or method of determining the interest rate, whether any conversion or exchange rights will be attached to the debt securities, whether the Company may redeem the debt securities at its option and any other specific terms. A Prospectus Supplement may include specific variable terms pertaining to the Securities that are not within the alternatives and parameters described in this Prospectus.

All shelf information permitted under applicable laws to be omitted from this Prospectus will be contained in one or more Prospectus Supplements that will be delivered to purchasers together with this Prospectus. Each Prospectus Supplement will be incorporated by reference into this Prospectus for the purposes of securities legislation as of the date of the Prospectus Supplement and only for the purposes of the distribution of the Securities to which the Prospectus Supplement pertains.

The Company may offer and sell the Securities, separately or together, to or through one or more underwriters or dealers, purchasing as principals for public offering and sale by them, and also may sell Securities to one or more other purchasers directly or through agents. The Prospectus Supplement relating to a particular offering of Securities will identify each underwriter, dealer or agent, if any, engaged by the Company in connection with the offering and sale of the Securities, and will set forth the terms of the offering of such Securities, the method of distribution of such Securities including, to the extent applicable, the proceeds to the Company and any discounts, commissions or any other compensation payable to underwriters, dealers or agents, and any other material terms of the plan of distribution. See “Plan of Distribution”.

The outstanding common shares of the Company are listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange (the “TSX”) under the symbol “EFR” and on the NYSE MKT (“NYSE MKT”) under the symbol “UUUU”. The outstanding convertible debentures of the Company are listed on the TSX under the symbol “EFR.DB”. The Company’s head office and registered office is located at 2 Toronto Street, Suite 500, Toronto, Ontario, Canada, M5C 2B6, telephone (416) 241-2810.

The earnings coverage ratio in respect of the Company’s indebtedness for the 12 months ended December 31, 2013 is less than one-to-one. See “Earnings Coverage”.

Stephen P. Antony, David C. Frydenlund, Bruce D. Hansen, Tae Hwan Kim, Harold R. Roberts, Gary R. Steele, and Daniel G. Zang, being directors and/or executive officers of the Company, reside outside of Canada. Each of Messrs. Antony, Frydenlund, Hansen, Kim, Roberts, Steele and Zang has appointed Borden Ladner Gervais LLP, 40 King Street West, Toronto, Ontario M5H 3Y4 as their agent for service of process. Purchasers are advised that it may not be possible for investors to enforce judgements obtained in Canada against any person or company that resides outside of Canada, even if the party has appointed an agent for service.

     Only the information contained or incorporated by reference in this Prospectus should be relied upon. The Company has not authorized any other person to provide different information. If anyone provides different or inconsistent information, it should not be relied upon. The Securities offered hereunder may not be offered or sold in any jurisdiction where the offer or sale is not permitted. Unless otherwise indicated, the statistical, operating and financial information contained in this Prospectus is presented as at March 28, 2014. It should be assumed that the information appearing in this Prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference herein are accurate only as of their respective dates. The Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects may have changed since those dates.

In this Prospectus, unless stated otherwise, the “Company”, “Energy Fuels”, “we”, “us” and “our” refer to Energy Fuels Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries.

CAUTIONARY NOTE TO U.S. INVESTORS CONCERNING ESTIMATES
OF MINERAL RESERVES AND MINERAL RESOURCES

     This Prospectus has been, and any Prospectus Supplement will be, prepared in accordance with the requirements of Canadian securities laws, which differ from the requirements of United States securities laws. Unless otherwise indicated, all reserve and resource estimates included in this Prospectus and any Prospectus Supplement, and in the documents incorporated by reference herein and therein, have been, and will be, prepared in accordance with Canadian National Instrument 43-101 - Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects (“NI 43-101”) and the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum classification system. NI 43-101 is a rule developed by the Canadian Securities Administrators (the “CSA”) which establishes standards for all public disclosure an issuer makes of scientific and technical information concerning mineral projects.

     Canadian standards, including NI 43-101, differ significantly from the requirements of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), and reserve and resource information contained or incorporated by reference in this Prospectus and any Prospectus Supplement, and in the documents incorporated by reference herein and therein, may not be comparable to similar information disclosed by companies reporting under United States standards. In particular, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the term “resource” does not equate to the term “reserve”. Under United States standards, mineralization may not be classified as a “reserve” unless the determination has been made that the mineralization could be economically and legally produced or extracted at the time the reserve determination is made. The SEC’s disclosure standards normally do not permit the inclusion of information concerning “measured mineral resources”, “indicated mineral resources” or “inferred mineral resources” or other descriptions of the amount of mineralization in mineral deposits that do not constitute “reserves” by United States standards in documents filed with the SEC. United States investors should also understand that “inferred mineral resources” have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence and as to their economic and legal feasibility. It cannot be assumed that all or any part of an “inferred mineral resource” will ever be upgraded to a higher category. Under Canadian rules, estimated “inferred mineral resources” may not form the basis of feasibility or prefeasibility studies. Investors are cautioned not to assume that all or any part of an “inferred mineral resource” exists or is economically or legally mineable. Disclosure of “contained ounces” in a resource estimate is permitted disclosure under Canadian regulations; however, the SEC normally only permits issuers to report mineralization that does not constitute “reserves” by SEC standards as in place tonnage and grade without reference to unit measures. The requirements of NI 43-101 for identification of “reserves” are also not the same as those of the SEC, and reserves reported by the Company in compliance with NI 43-101 may not qualify as “reserves” under SEC standards. Accordingly, information concerning mineral deposits set forth herein may not be comparable with information made public by companies that report in accordance with United States standards.

CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

     This Prospectus, including the documents incorporated herein by reference, contains forward looking information and forward looking statements within the meaning of applicable Canadian securities laws. Those statements appear in a number of places in this Prospectus and in the documents incorporated herein by reference and include, but are not limited to, statements and information regarding the Company’s current intent, belief or expectations primarily with respect to: the Company’s business objectives and plans; exploration and development plans and expenditures; estimation of mineral resources and reserves; mineral grades; Energy Fuels’ expectations regarding additions to its mineral reserves and resources through acquisitions and development; success of the Company's permitting efforts, including receipt of regulatory approvals, permits and licenses and treatment under governmental regulatory regimes and the expected timeframes for receipt of such approvals, permits, licenses and treatments; possible impacts of regulatory actions; capital expenditures; expansion plans; success of the Company's mining and/or milling operations; availability of equipment and supplies; availability of alternate feed materials for processing; the Company’s processing technologies; future production costs, including costs of labor, energy, materials and supplies; future effective tax rates; future benefits costs; future royalties payable; the outcome and possible impacts of disputes and legal proceedings in which the Company is involved; the timing and amount of estimated future production, including Energy Fuels’ expectations regarding expected price levels required to support production and the Company’s ability to increase production as market conditions warrant; sales volumes and future uranium and vanadium prices and treatment charges; future trends in the Company’s industry; global economic growth and industrial demand; global growth in and/or attitudes towards nuclear energy; changes in global uranium and vanadium and concentrate inventories; expected market fundamentals, including the supply and demand for uranium and vanadium; the Company’s and the industry’s expectations relating to future prices of uranium and vanadium; currency exchange rates; environmental risks; reclamation costs, including unanticipated reclamation expenses; collateral requirements for surety bonds; title disputes or claims; the adequacy of insurance coverage; and legal proceedings and the potential outcomes therefrom. In certain cases, forward looking statements can be identified by the use of words such as “plans”, “expects” or “does not expect”, “is expected”, “is likely”, “budget”, “scheduled”, “estimates”, “forecasts”, “intends”, “anticipates” or “does not anticipate”, “continue”, or “believes”, and similar expressions or variations of such words and phrases or statements that certain actions, events or results “may”, “could”, “would”, “might” or “will be taken”, “occur” or “be achieved”.

5


    Forward-looking statements are based on the opinions and estimates of management as of the date such statements are made. Energy Fuels believes that the expectations reflected in this forward-looking information are reasonable but no assurance can be given that these expectations will prove to be correct, and such forward-looking information included in this Prospectus should not be unduly relied upon.

     Readers are cautioned that it would be unreasonable to rely on any such forward looking statements and information as creating any legal rights, and that the statements and information are not guarantees and may involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties, and that actual results are likely to differ (and may differ materially) and objectives and strategies may differ or change from those expressed or implied in the forward looking statements or information as a result of various factors. Such risks and uncertainties include risks generally encountered in the development and operation of mineral properties and processing facilities such as: risks associated with mineral and resource estimates, including the risk of errors in assumptions or methodologies; risks associated with estimating production, forecasting future price levels necessary to support production, and the Company’s ability to increase production in response to any increases in commodity prices; uncertainties and liabilities inherent in mining operations; geological, technical and processing problems, including unanticipated metallurgical difficulties, ground control problems, process upsets and equipment malfunctions; risks associated with labour disturbances and unavailability of skilled labour; risks associated with the availability and/or fluctuations in the costs of raw materials and consumables used in the Company's production processes; risks associated with environmental compliance and permitting, including those created by changes in environmental legislation and regulation and delays in obtaining permits and licenses that could impact expected production levels or increases in expected production levels; actions taken by regulatory authorities with respect to mining and processing activities; risks associated with the Company’s dependence on third parties in the provision of transportation and other critical services; title risks; the adequacy of insurance coverage; uncertainty as to reclamation and decommissioning liabilities; the ability of the Company’s bonding companies to require increases in the collateral required to secure reclamation obligations; the potential for, and outcome of, litigation and other legal proceedings, including potential injunctions pending the outcome of such litigation and proceedings; the ability of Energy Fuels to meet its obligations to its creditors; risks associated with the Company’s relationships with its business and joint venture partners; failure to obtain industry partner, government and other third party consents and approvals, when required; competition for, among other things, capital, acquisitions of mineral reserves, undeveloped lands and skilled personnel; incorrect assessments of the value of acquisitions; risks posed by fluctuations in exchange rates and interest rates, as well as general economic conditions; risks inherent in the Company’s and industry’s forecasts or predictions of future uranium and vanadium price levels; fluctuations in the market prices of uranium and vanadium, which are cyclical and subject to substantial price fluctuations; the risks associated with asset impairment as a result of decreases in uranium prices; risks associated with lack of access to markets and the ability to access capital; the market price of Energy Fuels’ securities; public resistance to nuclear energy or uranium mining; uranium industry competition and international trade restrictions; and the other factors discussed under the “Risk Factors” section in this Prospectus and in the Annual Information Form (as defined below). Actual results and developments are likely to differ, and may differ materially, from those expressed or implied by the forward looking statements contained in this Prospectus.

    Such statements are based on a number of assumptions which may prove to be incorrect, including, but not limited to, the following assumptions: that there is no material deterioration in general business and economic conditions; that there is no unanticipated fluctuation of interest rates and foreign exchange rates; that the supply and demand for, deliveries of, and the level and volatility of prices of uranium, vanadium and the Company’s other primary metals and minerals develop as expected; that uranium and vanadium prices required to reach, sustain or increase expected or forcasted production levels are realized as expected; that the Company receives regulatory and governmental approvals for the Company’s development projects and other operations on a timely basis; that the Company is able to operate its mineral properties and processing facilities as expected; that existing licenses and permits are renewed as required; that the Company is able to obtain financing for the Company’s development projects on reasonable terms; that the Company is able to procure mining equipment and operating supplies in sufficient quantities and on a timely basis; that engineering and construction timetables and capital costs for the Company’s development and expansion projects and restarting projects on standby, are not incorrectly estimated or affected by unforeseen circumstances; that costs of closure of various operations are accurately estimated; that there are no unanticipated changes in collateral requirements for surety bonds; that there are no unanticipated changes to market competition; that the Company’s reserve and resource estimates are within reasonable bounds of accuracy (including with respect to size, grade and recoverability) and that the geological, operational and price assumptions on which these are based are reasonable; that environmental and other administrative and legal proceedings or disputes are satisfactorily resolved; and that the Company maintains ongoing relations with its employees and with its business and joint venture partners

6


     All written and oral forward looking statements or information attributable to the Company or persons acting on the Company’s behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the foregoing cautionary statements.

     Forward looking statements speak only as of the date the statements are made. You should not put undue reliance on any forward looking statements.

     The Company cautions that the foregoing list of assumptions, risks and uncertainties is not exhaustive. Additional information on these and other factors which could affect operations or financial results are included under the heading “Risk Factors”. Additional information may also be found in the Company’s other reports on file with the Canadian securities regulatory authorities, including the Annual Information Form (as defined below). The forward-looking statements and forward-looking information contained in this Prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference herein are expressly qualified by this cautionary statement. The Company does not undertake any obligation to publicly update or revise any forward looking statements to reflect actual results, changes in assumptions or changes in other factors affecting any forward looking statements or information except as expressly required by applicable securities laws. If the Company does update one or more forward looking statements, no inference should be drawn that the Company will make additional updates with respect to those or other forward looking statements.

     Statements relating to "mineral reserves" or "mineral resources" are deemed to be forward-looking information, as they involve the implied assessment, based on certain estimates and assumptions, that the mineral reserves and mineral resources described can be profitably produced in the future.

     To the extent that any document or information incorporated by reference into this Prospectus is included in a report that is filed with or furnished to the SEC on Form 40-F or 6-K (or any respective successor form), such document or information shall also be deemed to be incorporated by reference as an exhibit to the registration statement on Form F-10 of which this Prospectus forms a part.

Any statement so modified or superseded shall not be deemed, except as so modified or superseded, to constitute a part of this Prospectus.

     A Prospectus Supplement containing the specific terms of an offering of Securities will be delivered to purchasers of such Securities together with this Prospectus and shall be deemed to be incorporated by reference into this Prospectus as of the date of such Prospectus Supplement solely for the purposes of the offering of the Securities covered by that Prospectus Supplement.

RISK FACTORS

     An investment in the Securities is subject to a number of risks. A prospective purchaser of the Securities should carefully consider the information and risks faced by the Company described in this Prospectus and the documents incorporated herein by reference, including without limitation the risk factors set out under the heading “Risk Factors” in the Annual Information Form.

     The operations of the Company are highly speculative due to the high-risk nature of its business, which includes the acquisition, financing, exploration, permitting, development and mining of mineral properties, the milling and processing of ore and other feed materials and the marketing of the resulting products. The risks and uncertainties incorporated by reference herein are not the only ones facing the Company. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to the Company, or that the Company currently deems immaterial, may also impair the Company’s operations. If any of the risks actually occur, the Company’s business, financial condition and operating results could be adversely affected. As a result, the trading price of the Securities could decline and investors could lose part or all of their investment.

     Since December 31, 2013, the date of the Company’s most recently filed financial statements, the only material changes to the Company’s share and loan capital, on a consolidated basis, were: (i) the granting of stock options to acquire 307,250 Common Shares on January 23, 2014; and (ii) the issuance of a total of 61,301 Common Shares on the exercise of warrants, See “Prior Sales”.

USE OF PROCEEDS

     Unless otherwise specified in a Prospectus Supplement, the net proceeds from the sale of the Securities will be used for general corporate purposes, including to fund potential future acquisitions and capital expenditures. Each Prospectus Supplement will contain specific information concerning the use of proceeds from that sale of Securities.

     All expenses relating to an offering of Securities and any compensation paid to underwriters, dealers or agents, as the case may be, will be paid out of the Company’s general funds, unless otherwise stated in the applicable Prospectus Supplement.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

     The Company may offer and sell the Securities, separately or together, to or through one or more underwriters or dealers, purchasing as principals for public offering and sale by them, and also may sell Securities to one or more other purchasers directly or through agents. Each Prospectus Supplement will set out the terms of the offering, including:

  • the name or names of any underwriters or agents;
  • the purchase price or prices, and form of consideration, for the Securities;
  • the proceeds to the Company from the sale of the Securities;
  • any underwriting discounts or commissions and other items constituting underwriters’ compensation;

11


  • any delayed delivery arrangements; and
  • any securities exchanges on which the Securities may be listed.

     A Prospectus Supplement may also provide that the Securities sold thereunder will be “flow-through” securities.

     The Securities may be sold, from time to time in one or more transactions at a fixed price or prices which may be changed or at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to such prevailing market prices or at negotiated prices, including sales in transactions that are deemed to be “at the market distributions” as defined in Canadian National Instrument 44-102 – Shelf Distributions, including sales made directly on a national securities exchange in the United States, as applicable. Additionally, this Prospectus and any Prospectus Supplement may also cover the initial resale of the Securities purchased thereto. The price at which the Securities may be offered may vary as between purchasers and during the distribution period. If, in connection with the offering of Securities at a fixed price or prices, the underwriters have made a bona fide effort to sell all of the Securities at the initial offering price fixed in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, the public offering price may be decreased and thereafter further changed, from time to time, to an amount not greater than the initial public offering price fixed in such Prospectus Supplement, in which case the compensation realized by the underwriters will be decreased by the amount that the aggregate price paid by purchasers for the Securities is less than the gross proceeds paid by the underwriters to the Company.

     Underwriters, dealers and agents that participate in the distribution of the Securities may be entitled under one or more agreements to be entered into with the Company to indemnification by the Company against certain liabilities, including liabilities under Canadian and U.S. securities legislation, or to contribution with respect to payments which such underwriters, dealers or agents may be required to make in respect thereof. Such underwriters, dealers and agents may engage in transactions with, or perform services for, the Company in the ordinary course of business.

     Except as set out in a Prospectus Supplement relating to a particular offering of Securities in connection with any offering of Securities, the underwriters or dealers, as the case may be, may over-allot or effect transactions intended to fix or stabilize the market price of the Securities at a level above that which might otherwise prevail in the open market. Such transactions, if commenced, may be discontinued at any time.

DESCRIPTION OF UNITS

     The Company may issue units comprising one or more of the other securities described in this Prospectus in any combination.

This Prospectus, which forms a part of the registration statement, does not contain all of the information set forth in the registration statement, certain parts of which have been omitted in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC. For further information with respect to the Company and the securities offered in this Prospectus, reference is made to the registration statement and to the schedules and exhibits filed therewith. Statements contained in this Prospectus as to the contents of certain documents are not necessarily complete and, in each instance, reference is made to the copy of the document filed and exhibits to the registration statement. Each such statement is qualified in its entirety by such reference.

     The Company is subject to the informational requirements of the Exchange Act and in accordance therewith files reports and other information with the SEC. Under a multijurisdictional disclosure system adopted by the United States, such reports and other information may be prepared in accordance with the disclosure requirements of Canada, which requirements are different from those of the United States. The Company is exempt from the rules under Section 14 of the Exchange Act prescribing the furnishing and content of proxy statements, and the Company’s officers, directors and principal shareholders are exempt from the reporting and short-swing profit recovery provisions contained in Section 16 of the Exchange Act. Under the Exchange Act, the Company is not required to publish financial statements as frequently or as promptly as U.S. companies. Any information filed with the SEC can be read and copied at prescribed rates at the SEC’s Public Reference Room at 100 F Street, N.E., Washington, D.C. 20549. Information on the operation of the Public Reference Room may be obtained by calling the SEC at 1-800-SEC-0330 or by accessing its website at www.sec.gov. Some of the documents the Company files with or furnishes to the SEC are electronically available from the SEC’s Electronic Document Gathering and Retrieval System, which is commonly known by the acronym “EDGAR”, and may be accessed at www.sec.gov.

ENFORCEABILITY OF CERTAIN CIVIL LIABILITIES

     The Company is incorporated under the laws of the Province of Ontario, Canada. Some of the Company’s directors and officers and the experts named in this Prospectus are residents of Canada. Some of the Company’s assets and the assets of these persons are located outside of the United States. As a result, it may be difficult for shareholders to initiate a lawsuit within the United States against these non-U.S. residents, or to enforce U.S. judgments against the Company or these persons. The Company’s Canadian counsel has advised the Company that a monetary judgment of a U.S. court predicated solely upon the civil liability provisions of U.S. federal securities laws would likely be enforceable in Canada if the U.S. court in which the judgment was obtained had a basis for jurisdiction in the matter that was recognized by a Canadian court for such purposes. The Company cannot provide assurance that this will be the case. It is less certain that an action could be brought in Canada in the first instance on the basis of liability predicated solely upon the civil liability provisions of U.S. federal securities laws.

DOCUMENTS FILED AS PART OF THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT

     The following documents have been filed with the SEC as part of the registration statement of which this Prospectus forms a part: the documents referred to under “Documents Incorporated by Reference”; the consents of KPMG LLP and Ernst & Young LLP; the consents of the Technical Experts and the powers of attorney from the Company’s directors and officers. The form of indentures relating to the warrants and the debt securities that may be issued under this Prospectus will be filed by post-effective amendment or by incorporation by reference to documents filed or furnished with the SEC under the U.S. Exchange Act.

PART II

INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED TO BE DELIVERED TO
OFFEREES OR PURCHASERS

Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

Under the Business Corporations Act (Ontario), the Registrant may indemnify a director or officer, a former director or officer or another individual who acts or acted at the Registrant’s request as a director or officer, or an individual acting in a similar capacity, of another entity, against all costs, charges and expenses, including an amount paid to settle an action or satisfy a judgment, reasonably incurred by the individual in respect of any civil, criminal, administrative, investigative or other proceeding in which the individual is involved because of that association with the Registrant or other entity on condition that (i) the individual acted honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of the Registrant or, as the case may be, to the best interests of the other entity for which the individual acted as a director or officer or in a similar capacity at the Registrant’s request and (ii) in the case of a criminal or administrative action or proceeding that is enforced by a monetary penalty, had reasonable grounds for believing that his conduct was lawful. Further, the Registrant may, with court approval, indemnify a person described above in respect of an action by or on behalf of the Registrant or other entity to obtain a judgment in its favor, to which the individual is made a party because of the individual’s association with the Registrant or other entity, against all costs, charges and expenses reasonably incurred by the individual in connection with such action if the individual fulfills conditions (i) and (ii) above. An individual as described above is entitled to indemnification from the Registrant as a matter of right if he was substantially successful on the merits in his defense and fulfilled conditions (i) and (ii) above.

In accordance with the Business Corporations Act (Ontario), the by-laws of the Registrant indemnify a director or officer, a former director or officer, or a person who acts or acted at a Registrant's request as a director or officer of a corporation in which the Registrant is or was a shareholder or creditor and his 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 in respect of any civil, criminal, administrative action or proceeding to which he is made a party by reason of being or having been a director or officer of the Registrant or other corporation if he acted honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of the Registrant, and, in the case of a criminal or administrative action or proceeding that is enforced by monetary penalty, he had reasonable grounds for believing that his conduct was lawful.

A policy of directors' and officers' liability insurance is maintained by the Registrant which insures directors and officers for losses as a result of claims against the directors and officers of the Registrant in their capacity as directors and officers and also reimburses the Registrant for payments made pursuant to the indemnity provisions under the by-laws of the Registrant and the Business Corporations Act (Ontario).

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the U.S. Securities Act, may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, the Registrant has been informed that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the U.S. Securities Act, and is therefore unenforceable.
