On November 20, 2024, we executed an agreement to borrow up to 250,000 pounds of U₃O₈ from a counterparty. The agreement is for one year and calls for interest payments of 5.25% per annum on the value of any uranium borrowed. In addition, there is a requirement to pay 1.5% per annum interest on any pounds not borrowed. The uranium loan value and interest expense calculations are based on the current average spot price. At the end of each month, the loan is subject to mark-to-market adjustments to reflect the current loan valuation. In addition, the Company is required to post a minimum deposit of $15 per pound on any pounds borrowed. If the average uranium price increases above certain thresholds, an additional $5 per pound will be deposited with the counterparty. Conversely, if the average uranium price declines below the thresholds, the Company can request a deposit refund of $5 per pound, subject to the minimum $15 per pound deposit. The uranium loan is due November 30, 2025.

On December 1, 2024, the Company exercised the option to borrow 250,000 pounds, which were subsequently sold into a uranium sales agreement, and posted the minimum $15 per pound deposit. The Company can return borrowed uranium at any time with 30 days notice without penalty and with the right to reborrow the uranium before the termination of the loan. Upon return of borrowed uranium, the counterparty will refund the respective posted deposit to the Company. The loan value was initially recorded at $77.13 per pound and was subsequently adjusted to $72.63 per pound on December 31, 2024. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, the loan value was adjusted to $64.23 resulting in a mark-to-market gain of $2.1 million.
