Uranium Resources, Inc.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

June 30, 2005 (Unaudited)

 

1.                                      BASIS OF PRESENTATION

 

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-QSB and Item 310(b) of Regulation S-B.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by United States generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.  The accompanying statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements included in the Company’s 2004 Annual Report on Form 10-KSB/A.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.  Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full calendar year ending December 31, 2005.

 

2.                                      DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

 

The financial statements of the Company have been prepared assuming that the Company is a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.

 

Since 1988, the company has produced about 6.1 million pounds of uranium from two South Texas properties, 3.5 million pounds from Kingsville Dome and 2.6 million pounds from Rosita.  Additional mineralized uranium materials exist at Kingsville Dome.  The Rosita property is essentially at the end of its productive capacity, although some minor mineralized uranium materials remain that may be produced.  In 1999 the Company shut-in our production because of depressed uranium prices, and from the first quarter of 2000 until December 2004 it had no source of revenue and had to rely on equity infusions to remain in business.  During that period the Company raised a total of approximately $6.5 million allowing it to maintain the critical employees and assets of the Company until such time that uranium prices reached a level where it was prudent to commence operations.  Across this period, the Company performed ongoing restoration and reclamation at certain of our wellfields at Rosita and Kingsville Dome via an agreement with the State of Texas and our bonding company that allowed access to approximately $3.2 million that had been pledged to secure restoration bonds (the “Restoration Agreement”).

 

Since 2000, the spot price for uranium has increased from $7.10 to $29.50 at August 1, 2005.  In May 2004, the Company raised approximately $5.9 million by the sale of about 39.3 million shares of Common Stock at $0.15 per share and commenced the development and mining of our Vasquez property in South Texas.  Wellfield injection commenced in October 2004, and we produced approximately 76,200 pounds of uranium in the fourth quarter of 2004 and sold 72,350 pounds in December 2004.

 

Production from Vasquez in the first six months of 2005 was less than projected and totaled approximately 174,000 pounds, less than half of that needed to satisfy the 2005 delivery requirements under our long-term uranium sales contracts.  We experienced chemical and permeability obstacles in the Vasquez formation that were not experienced at our Kingsville Dome and Rosita properties.  Beginning in November 2004, we developed a plan to address the problems and increase the production rate.  We began constructing a third remote ion exchange plant (satellite plant) and the drilling of additional production wells to reduce the distance between our injection and production wells.  The reduction in spacing of wells on a portion of the wellfield resulted in an increase in grades.  We then implemented the program in the two existing wellfields and designed new wellfields to reflect the closer well spacing.  We expect Wellfield 3 and the third satellite plant to come on line in September 2005 with full benefits realized by October 2005.  We also plan to bring on additional wellfields to supply feed to a fourth satellite plant in November 2005, in order to increase the flow of wellfield solutions.  These actions are expected to provide an increased circulation of wellfield solution and achieve production rates that meet the annual scheduled deliveries under our delivery contracts.  Under our delivery contracts a shortfall in 2005 deliveries (if any) will be made up in 2006, and one-half of 2005 actual production will go to each of the purchasers.

3.                                      RESTATEMENT OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

Restatement of Financial Statements

 

The financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2004 and 2003 have been restated to give effect for fair value accounting of certain uranium sales contracts under FAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. The Company determined that at December 31, 2003, its long-term uranium sales contracts met the definition of derivative financial instruments for financial statement reporting purposes, and the financial statements have been restated as of such date, to record these contracts at fair value.

4.                                      CONTRACT COMMITMENTS

 

Sales Contracts

 

The Company currently has two long-term contracts, each of which calls for deliveries of one half of our 2005 production up to an aggregate of 617,650 pounds of uranium in 2005 and 600,000 pounds of uranium in each of the years 2006 through 2008.  In 2005, the Company renegotiated the pricing on both of the contracts.  The Company expects to realize under these two contracts an average base price of $17.90 per pound for its 2005 deliveries and $13.13 per pound for its 2006 through 2008 deliveries.  In both contracts the purchase price is escalated based upon the increase from the fourth quarter of 2003 in the Gross Domestic Product Implicit Price Deflator Index published by the US Department of Commerce.  The Index has increased 3.14% since the fourth quarter of 2003 through the first quarter of 2005.  In addition, the Company has entered into two contracts that call for an aggregate of 645,000 pounds of deliveries in 2007 at the then current spot price on the date of delivery less an average discount of $3.80 per pound.

 

Derivative Financial Instruments

 

The Company has determined that at December 31, 2003, its long-term uranium sales contracts met the definition of derivative financial instruments for financial statement and reporting purposes, and the financial statements have been restated as of such date, to record these contracts at fair value.  The Company does not enter into hedge transactions with respect to its uranium sales contracts and the fair value loss represents the present value of the loss the Company would incur in the event it would be required to purchase uranium in the spot market to satisfy the deliveries under both of its long-term uranium sales contracts.

 

5.                                      NOTES PAYABLE

 

Note Purchase Agreement

 

On March 28, 2005 the Company borrowed $600,000 pursuant to a Note Purchase Agreement dated March 24, 2005. The lenders are five (5) stockholders of the Company, each of whom may be considered an affiliate.  The Notes are unsecured, mature on March 24, 2006, bear interest at the rate of 10% per annum and interest is due at maturity.  The proceeds were used to commence the new development plan for Vasquez and for general and administrative expenses.

 

6.                                      STOCK BASED COMPENSATION

 

The Company has five stock option plans, the Employees’ Stock Option Plan, the 1995 Stock Incentive Plan,  the 2004 Stock Incentive Plan, the Directors’ Stock Option Plan and the 2004 Directors’ Stock Option Plan. The Company accounts for these plans under APB Opinion No. 25, under which no compensation cost has been recognized. Had compensation cost for these plans been determined consistent with FAS 148, the Company’s net loss and loss per share (“EPS”) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004 would have been adjusted to the following pro forma amounts:

The fair value of each option is estimated on the date of grant or the date approved by the shareholders, if later, using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions used for grants in 2005 and options approved in 2005: expected volatility of  150%, 150% and 149% and risk-free interest rates of  3.93%, $4.02% and $4.03%. Expected lives of  9.1 years, 9.1 and 9.3 years was used for options granted to employees and directors, respectively.

 

On June 2, 2004, 6,750,000 options were granted to officers at a price of $0.29 per option. These options were approved by the stockholders on June 30, 2005 when the market price was $0.46 per share. Accordingly, stock compensation expense of  $444,000 has been recorded in June 2005 and is reflected in general and administrative (“G&A”) expenses. The weighted average fair value of options granted and approved in 2005 was $0.79. For grants in 2004 the following weighted average assumptions were used: expected volatility of 179% and risk-free interest rates of 4.24%. An expected life of 5.7 years was used for options granted to directors. The weighted average fair value of options granted in 2004 was $0.29.

 

The fair value method of accounting as proscribed by FAS 143 has not been applied to options granted prior to January 1, 1995, and accordingly the resulting pro forma compensation cost may not be representative of that to be expected in future years.

 

7.                                      ASSET RETIREMENT OBLIGATIONS

 

As a result of adoption of FAS 143, the Company recorded a net reduction in its restoration liability of approximately $1.4 million at January 1, 2003. The Company had previously recorded the undiscounted future estimated restoration costs into expense. Under FAS 143, future restoration liabilities are usually added to the carrying value of the related asset but the Company has recorded them to expense because the associated properties had been fully impaired.  Under FAS 143 the present value of the restoration costs are recorded instead of the undiscounted amount.

 

The following table shows the change in the balance of the restoration and reclamation liability during the three months and six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively:

Equity Infusion

 

On August 12, 2005 the Company issued 24,000,000 shares of common stock at $0.50 per share to selected accredited investors, raising a total of $12 million.  The Company paid a fee of $336,000 in cash and 448,000 shares of Common Stock to a placement agent in connection with the offering.

 

The Company plans to use the proceeds of the offering for its South Texas mining operations.  The Company will file a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, to register the resale of the shares.  Two private investment partnerships managed by George R. Ireland, a director of the Company, purchased 1,600,000 shares in the offering.

ITEM 2.     MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION

 

Forward Looking Statements

 

This Item 2 contains “forward-looking statements”.  These statements include, without limitation, statements relating to liquidity, financing of operations, continued volatility of uranium prices, estimates of future capital expenditures, and other such matters.  The words “believes,” “expects,” “projects,” “targets,” or “estimates” and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements.  The Company does not undertake to update, revise or correct any of the forward-looking information.  Readers are cautioned that such forward-looking statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s disclosures under the heading: “Cautionary Statements” in the Company’s 2004 Annual Report on Form 10-KSB/A.

 

The financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2004 and the six months and three months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, have been restated to give effect for fair value accounting of certain uranium sales under FAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities.  The Company determined that at December 31, 2003, its long-term uranium sales contracts met the definition of derivative financial instruments for financial statement reporting purposes, and the financial statements have been restated as of such date, to record these contracts at fair value.

 

Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

Six Months and Three Months Ended June 30, 2005 and 2004 Consolidated Results of Operations

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, our results of operations were a net loss of ($12,440,000) and a net loss of ($9,665,000) and included non-cash unrealized losses on derivatives of ($11.4) million and ($8.6) million respectively.  For the three months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, our results of operations were a net loss of ($10,082,000) and a net loss of ($2,431,000) and included non-cash unrealized losses on derivatives of ($9.0) million and ($2.0) million respectively.

 

In the first six months of 2005, we sold 144,660 pounds of Vasquez production resulting in revenues of $2.8 million (including $253,000 from the renegotiation of the contract price of our 2004 sales).  There was no uranium sold or revenues generated in the first six months of 2004.  In the second quarter of 2005, we sold 61,380 pounds of Vasquez production resulting in revenues of $1.1 million.  There was no uranium sold or revenues generated in the second quarter of 2004.

 

Our operating expenses and related royalties and commissions for Vasquez production sold in the six months and three months ended June 30, 2005 totaled $1,375,000 and $632,000, respectively; and we incurred $36,000 and $14,000 of stand-by costs at the Rosita project that was charged to operations.  In the six months and three months ended June 30, 2004, there were no cost of sales related to production sold during the year, but we did incur $330,000 and $140,000, respectively of stand-by costs that were charged to operations.  In the six months and three months ended June 30, 2005 we incurred depreciation and depletion cost of sales from our Vasquez production of $553,000 and $268,000, respectively and $11,000 and $5,000, respectively of stand-by depreciation cost from the Rosita project.  In the six and three months ended June 30, 2004, we incurred depreciation related to stand-by activities of $13,000 and $7,000, respectively.  Accretion and amortization of future restoration costs in six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004 totaled $171,000 and $131,000, respectively and $96,000 and $8,000, respectively.

 

We incurred general and administrative charges and corporate depreciation of $1,618,000 in the first six months of 2005 and $717,000 for the same period in 2004.  The increase in these charges in 2005 resulted primarily from stock compensation expense of $444,000 incurred in the second quarter of 2005 (see Note 6. “Stock Based Compensation”) and increased personnel costs related to Vasquez project activities, increases in insurance premiums and legal fees.

(2) The cost per pound for the three and six months in 2005 excludes standby costs incurred of $19,000 and $47,000, respectively.  Such standby costs of $147,000 and $343,000 were charged to operating expense in the three months and six months ended June 30, 2004, respectively.  It also excludes any amortization of $2.7 million of Vasquez costs capitalized in prior periods and written off prior to 2004.

(3) Cost of produced pounds sold for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005 includes plant and wellfield operations costs ($9.19 and $8.24, respectively) and depreciation and depletion of capital costs ($4.37 and $3.82, respectively).  The estimated future costs of restoring the groundwater and the reclamation and decommissioning of surface and facilities ($1.20/lb.) are treated as a period cost and are not included herein as a cost of production.

 

Cash Sources and Uses

 

As of June 30, 2005 we had a cash balance of approximately $479,000 compared to $269,000 at December 31, 2004.

 

In the first six months of 2005, we generated net cash flow from operations of $79,000, primarily from sales of 144,660 pounds of uranium from our Vasquez project.  We also raised $600,000 in financing activities from the issuance of one year notes and $1,500,000 from a private placement closed in May 2005, which resulted in the issuance of 3,333,333 shares of our Common Stock.

 

In the first six months of 2004 we raised $6,546,000 from three private placements closed in January, February and May 2004, which resulted in the issuance of 46,067,000 shares of our Common Stock.

 

Our uses of cash in the first six months of 2005 were made primarily on expenditures for property, plant and equipment at Vasquez of $1,459,000, additions to Kingsville Dome of $207,000 and other property additions in Texas and New Mexico of $267,000.  Uses of cash in the first six months of 2004 were on expenditures for property, plant and equipment at Vasquez of $975,000, additions to Kingsville Dome of $358,000, other property additions in Texas and New Mexico of $135,000 and working capital needs of approximately $607,000.

 

Liquidity

 

Severely depressed uranium prices, in mid-1999 caused us to reduce our payroll and shut in our producing properties.  From that time until 2004, the Company had relied on equity infusions to remain in business.  From August 2000 to February 2004, we raised a total of approximately $6.5 million by issuing shares of our Common Stock allowing us to maintain the critical employees and assets of the Company until such time that uranium prices reached a level where it was prudent to commence operations.  During this period, we performed ongoing restoration and reclamation at certain of our wellfields at Rosita and Kingsville Dome via an agreement with the State of Texas and our bonding company that allowed us access to approximately $3.2 million that had been pledged to secure restoration bonds (the “Restoration Agreement”).

 

Since 2000, uranium prices have increased from a low of $7.10 per pound to $29.50 as of August 1, 2005.  In August 2003, we signed a sales contract to deliver approximately 300,000 pounds of uranium annually for the years 2005-2008.  In January 2004, we signed a second uranium supply contract to deliver approximately 300,000 pounds

annually for the years 2005-2008.  Each of these contacts contains quantity flexibilities whereby the purchaser may elect to increase or decrease the amount of the uranium delivered each year by 15%.  Both customers exercised the option in 2005 to increase their deliveries bringing the total to be sold to each customer in 2005 to 345,000 pounds of which 72,350 was delivered in 2004.

 

In May 2004, we raised equity of approximately $5.9 million by the sale of about 39.3 million shares of Common Stock at $0.15 per share and commenced the development and mining of our Vasquez property in South Texas.  Wellfield injection commenced in October 2004, and we produced approximately 76,200 pounds of uranium in the fourth quarter of 2004.  In 2004, we accelerated certain of the 2005 scheduled deliveries under one of our long-term contracts and sold 72,350 pounds in December 2004, which resulted in approximately $1.0 million in revenue in the fourth quarter of 2004.

 

Our projected cash requirements for 2005 are expected to be approximately $12.5 million and these expenditures are expected to be utilized for ongoing Vasquez production, development and related activities of $8.7 million (which includes ongoing financial surety requirements of $1.2 million required in the third quarter of the year), ongoing groundwater restoration activities at our Kingsville Dome and Rosita projects of approximately $700,000, permitting, licensing and land holding costs for our Texas and New Mexico properties of approximately $800,000 and general and administrative and other costs of approximately $2.3 million.

 

In 2005, we expect production from the Vasquez project to be sufficient to meet our contracted deliveries of approximately 617,000 pounds.  Such deliveries are expected to generate approximately $10.4 million in revenue during the year.  We have raised the funds for and implemented a revised production plan to increase the production rates at Vasquez.

 

On August 12, 2005 the Company issued 24,000,000 shares of common stock at $0.50 per share to selected accredited investors, raising a total of $12 million.  The Company paid a fee of $336,000 in cash and 448,000 shares of Common Stock to a placement agent in connection with the offering.

 

The Company plans to use the proceeds of the offering for its South Texas mining operations.  The Company will file a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, to register the resale of the shares.  Two private investment partnerships managed by George R. Ireland, a director of the Company, purchased 1,600,000 shares in the offering.

 

Derivative Financial Instruments

 

We have determined that at December 31, 2003, our long-term uranium sales contracts met the definition of derivative financial instruments for financial statement and reporting purposes, and as of such date, are recorded on the balance sheet at fair value.  Changes in the fair value of such derivatives recorded on the balance sheet are recorded in the consolidated statements of operation.  Such changes in the Company’s derivatives represent non-cash charges to earnings for the present value of the loss the Company would incur in the event it would be required to purchase uranium in the spot market to satisfy the deliveries under both of its long-term uranium sales contracts.

 

The initial liability recorded on the balance sheet at December 31, 2003 represents the estimated cost difference between the contracted sales price and the price to purchase the quantities the Company is obligated to deliver under each of its uranium sales contracts, present valued to the balance sheet date.  The current portion of the unrealized loss on derivatives represents such price difference for those deliveries scheduled within the next year.  Future factors such as changes in uranium market prices, amendments to the delivery terms or prices in the sales contracts, the physical delivery of produced uranium to the contracts and others will impact the amount of the liability.  As deliveries arc made from the Company’s mine production, the amount of the liability will be reduced and a corresponding increase to earnings would result.  Changes in uranium prices may have a significant impact on the calculation of the liability in future periods.  An increase in uranium market prices will increase the liability related to the estimated cost of purchasing sufficient material to deliver under these contracts in the future and would result in a charge to earnings in the period of such rising prices.  A decrease in future uranium market prices would reduce the liability and result in a positive earnings impact in the period of falling prices.

 

Management applies significant judgment in estimating the fair value of instruments that are highly sensitive to assumptions regarding uranium prices and market volatilities.  Variations in these factors could materially affect amounts credited or charged to operations to reflect the changes in fair market value of derivatives.

 

14



 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We have secured financial surety relating to certain of our future restoration and reclamation obligations as required by the State of Texas regulatory agencies.  The Company has had a combination of bank Letters of Credit (the “L/C’s) and performance bonds issued for the benefit of the Company to satisfy such regulatory requirements.  The L/C’s were issued by Bank of America and the performance bonds have been issued by United States Fidelity and Guaranty Company (“USF&G”).  The amount of L/C’s issued was $897,000 and $0, at December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively and the L/C’s are collateralized in their entirety by certificates of deposit.  The amount of performance bonds issued was $2,835,000 on December 31, 2004 and 2003 and USF&G has required that the Company deposit funds collateralizing a portion of the bonds.  The amount of bonding issued by USF&G exceeded the amount of collateral by $2,500,000 and $2,434,000 at December 31, 2004 and 2003.  In the event that either provider is required to perform under its financial surety or the financial surety is called by the state agencies, the Company would be obligated to pay any expenditures in excess of the collateral.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s 2004 Annual Report on Form 10-KSB/A.  We believe our most critical accounting policies involve those requiring the use of significant estimates and assumptions in determining values or projecting future costs.

 

Specifically regarding our uranium properties, significant estimates were utilized in determining the carrying value of these assets. These assets have been recorded at their estimated net realizable value for impairment purposes on a liquidation basis, which is less than our cost. The actual value realized from these assets may vary significantly from these estimates based upon market conditions, financing availability and other factors.

 

Regarding our reserve for future restoration and reclamation costs, significant estimates were utilized in determining the future costs to complete the groundwater restoration and surface reclamation at our mine sites.  The actual cost to conduct these activities may vary significantly from these estimates.

 

Such estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period.

 

ITEM 3.     CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

The management of the company has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report (“Evaluation date”) and has concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures are adequate and effective based upon their evaluation as of the Evaluation date with the exception of a weakness in awareness of proper reporting for FAS No. 133 Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities which resulted in restatement of the Company’s financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003.  The Company intends to work more diligently to assure that errors of this type do not recur in the future.

 

There were no significant changes in our internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect internal controls during our most recent quarter, including any corrective actions with regard to significant deficiencies and material weaknesses.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

 

ITEM 1.     LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

 

New Mexico Radioactive Material License

 

In the State of New Mexico, uranium recovery by in situ leach (“ISL”) technology requires a radioactive material license issued by the United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission (the “NRC” or the “Commission”).  We applied for one license covering almost all properties located in both the Churchrock and Crownpoint districts collectively known as the Crownpoint Uranium Project.  The Commission issued an operating license for the Crownpoint Uranium Project in January 1998 that allowed ISL uranium recovery operations to begin in the Churchrock district.  In mid-1998, the Commission determined that certain Churchrock and Crownpoint residents who requested a hearing had standing to raise certain objections to the license.  An Administrative Law Judge conducted a hearing during 1999.  The Administrative Law Judge upheld the Churchrock Section 8 license and granted our request to defer any dispute on all but the Churchrock Section 8 property, until we make a decision whether to mine these other properties.

 

The ruling was appealed to the Commission.  On January 31, 2000, the Commission issued an order concurring with the technical, substantive and legal findings of the Administrative Law Judge, but the Commission also determined that we must proceed with the hearing process for the other New Mexico properties beyond Churchrock Section 8.  Subsequently, the hearing process was held in abeyance until 2004 pursuant to NRC supervised settlement negotiations between the parties

 

In February 2004, the Administrative Law Judge issued an order, which concluded that we must make three specific changes to our submitted restoration action plan for Churchrock Section 8 in order to commence mining operations at Churchrock.  The Commission accepted our petition for review on two of three issues and subsequently overruled the Administrative Law Judge on these issues.  The Administrative Law Judge is proceeding with the hearing on the relevant issues at the remaining three mine sites.  The parties agreed to truncate the number and scope of the issues remaining for consideration at the three sites, and the Administrative Law Judge is proceeding with the hearing on four remaining issues at the remaining three sites.

 

With respect to the four remaining issues for litigation, all briefs have been filed by all parties with the exception of NRC’s briefs regarding two issues.  On July 20, 2005, the Administrative Law Judge issued a decision in which he determined that groundwater, groundwater restoration and financial assurance issues for the remaining sites did not pose significant, potential impacts to public health and safety or the environment.  The Administrative Law Judge’s decision requires one minor amendment to the restoration action plans (the “RAP’s”) for the remaining sites that will be addressed this year.  Baring appeals, we anticipate final decisions on the remaining three issues by the end of this year.

 

New Mexico UIC Permit

 

The State of New Mexico, the USEPA and the Navajo Nation are engaged in a jurisdictional dispute as to which entity has the authority to issue Underground Injection Control (“UIC”) program permits and, in the case of some of the Churchrock and Crownpoint properties, aquifer exemptions required to mine a portion of our Churchrock and Crownpoint properties.  The dispute was taken to the Tenth Circuit Court of Appeals, which in January 2000 decided in favor of USEPA jurisdiction and remanded the issue of whether the Section 8 Churchrock property was a dependent Indian community, as that is a crucial factor in determining whether a Federal UIC permit should be issued.  To date, no decision has been issued by USEPA Region 9 regarding this issue.

 

On March 3, 2005, the New Mexico Environment Department (“NMED”) sent a letter to USEPA Region 9 requesting that USEPA determine whether the Section 8 Churchrock property is a dependent Indian community.  In this letter, NMED stated that such determination was necessary due to our inquiry into the possibility of requiring a Federal UIC permit for that property and argued that such property was not a dependent Indian community under relevant legal precedent.  We are awaiting further action by USEPA on this issue.

Kingsville Dome Production Area 3

 

We are involved in a dispute with certain intervenors over whether a hearing is required for a new production area within the boundary of our approved permit area at Kingsville Dome.  In the first quarter of 2000, the District Court of Travis County, Texas ruled that the Texas Natural Resource Conservation Commission’s (now renamed the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality or TCEQ) decision to approve our third production area without granting a hearing to certain intervenors would require further review by that regulatory agency.  In order to expedite the process, we have requested a public hearing to avoid further litigation on the point.  We have also requested a public hearing regarding renewal of our waste disposal well permits at the Kingsville Dome Property.  The public hearing ended on August 5, 2005 and we expect a determination to be made in the fourth quarter of 2005.

 

Texas Department of Health Bonding Issues

 

On January 16, 2003, the Texas Department of Health (“TDH”) requested that we post additional financial security for $3.5 million and threatened enforcement action if we failed to do so.  We objected to the request.  After consultation with the Department and several interim extensions, on March 1, 2004 we entered into a Restoration Performance Agreement with the TDH, the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality and United States Fidelity and Guaranty Insurance Company that resolves the bonding issues.  Through the Restoration Performance Agreement, we agreed to fund ongoing groundwater restoration at the Kingsville Dome and Rosita mine sites at specified treatment rates, utilizing a portion of our cash flow from sales of uranium from the Vasquez site as a substitute for additional bonding.

 

Certain parties, including the county commissioners of Kleberg County, have challenged the Restoration Agreement.  One of the challengers, Kleberg County, has withdrawn its challenge and has agreed to accept the Company’s groundwater restoration plan under the Restoration Performance Agreement.  Under the agreement, Kleberg County has also agreed to withdraw its request for a public hearing regarding authorization of an additional production area at the Company’s Kingsville Dome property (discussed in the preceding paragraph) and the renewal of waste disposal wells permits at Kingsville Dome.  Other parties continue that challenge, and on June 30, 2005, one family commenced an action against the Company entitled Bustamente et al v. Uranium Resources, Inc. and URI, Inc., in the 105th District Court in Kleberg County, Texas, alleging that materials had been discharged causing damage to Plaintiffs’ real property and person.  Plaintiffs seek unspecified damages.  We have answered the complaint denying all claims.  We believe the claims are without merit and will vigorously defend the action.
