Consolidated Uranium Announces Record Date for the Spin-Out of Premier American Uranium

All of the conditions precedent to completion of the Spin-Out have been satisfied, including among others, receipt of the final order of the Ontario Superior Court of Justice (Commercial List) and receipt of conditional approval of the TSX Venture Exchange (the “TSXV”) for listing of the PUR Shares (the “Listing”).

Accordingly, the Company is pleased to announce the anticipated closing date for the Spin-Out is November 27, 2023 (the “Record Date”). CUR shareholders as of 12:01 a.m. on the Record Date will receive their pro rata portion of the 3,876,786 PUR Shares that are being distributed by CUR pursuant to the Arrangement. The precise number of PUR Shares to be distributed to each CUR shareholder will be determined on the Record Date, but is currently anticipated to be approximately 0.0374 of a PUR Share for each CUR share held by such holder as at the Record Date. In accordance with the procedures of CDS Clearing and Depository Services Inc., the payment date is November 29, 2023, and CUR Shareholders can expect to receive their PUR Shares on or about such date.  The Listing is subject to the final approval of the TSXV in accordance with its original listing requirements and is expected to be completed shortly after the payment date.

Update on Private Placement by Premier American Uranium

Further to the Company’s press release dated August 24, 2023, the Company is also pleased to announce that PUR completed a second tranche (the “Second Tranche”) of its previously announced fully marketed private placement (the “PUR Offering”), representing a partial exercise of the over-allotment option granted to the Agents (as defined below), for gross proceeds of C$207,049.50 from the sale of 138,033 additional subscription receipts of PUR (each, a “Subscription Receipt”) at a price of C$1.50 per Subscription Receipt (the “Offering Price”). Red Cloud Securities Inc. acted as lead agent and sole bookrunner on behalf of a syndicate of agents including PI Financial Corp. (together, the “Agents”).

The terms of the Subscription Receipts sold pursuant to the Second Tranche are identical to the Subscription Receipts sold previously pursuant to the PUR Offering. In addition, PUR issued 9,335 broker warrants (the “Broker Warrants”) to the Agents pursuant to the closing of the Second Tranche. Each Broker Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one PUR Share at the Offering Price until August 24, 2026.

The proceeds of the Second Tranche, net of the reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of the Agents, will be held in escrow and not released to PUR unless the escrow release conditions (the “Escrow Release Conditions”) are satisfied on or before December 22, 2023 (the date of satisfaction or waiver, as applicable, of such escrow release conditions being, the “Escrow Release Date”).

This news release does not constitute an offer of securities for sale in the United States. The securities offered have not been, nor will they be, registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and such securities may not be offered or sold within the United States absent U.S. registration or an applicable exemption from U.S. registration requirements.

Merger with IsoEnergy

Completion of the Spin-Out Transaction will not impact the previously announced merger (the “Merger” or the “Arrangement”) involving CUR and IsoEnergy Ltd. (“IsoEnergy”). Completion of the Spin-Out is a condition precedent to completion of the Merger and, accordingly, the Spin-Out will be completed in advance of closing of the Merger. In addition to the right to receive PUR Shares under the Spin-Out, Shareholders are entitled to receive the consideration under the Merger comprised of 0.500 of a common share of IsoEnergy for each CUR share held.

The special meeting of Shareholders (the “Meeting”) to approve the Merger will be held at the offices of Cassels Brock & Blackwell LLP, Suite 3200, Bay Adelaide Centre – North Tower, 40 Temperance St., Toronto, Ontario and online at http://meetnow.global/MJFSQPW on November 28, 2023 at 10:00 a.m. (Toronto time). Shareholders of record as of October 16, 2023, are eligible to vote at the Meeting.
