At the Meeting, Shareholders will be asked to consider and, if thought fit, approve a special resolution relating to the Arrangement. Meeting materials, including a Notice of Special Meeting and Management Information Circular, are scheduled to be mailed to Shareholders of record at the close of business on July 17, 2013. Upon completion of the mailing to registered shareholders, the materials for the Meeting will be filed by the Company and will be available under the Company's profile on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.

If the special resolution relating to the Arrangement is approved by the requisite votes of Shareholders and all other conditions to the Arrangement are satisfied or waived, Energy Fuels will acquire all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Strathmore (the "Common Shares"). Shareholders will receive, in exchange for each Common Share held, 1.47 common shares of Energy Fuels.
