IsoEnergy to Acquire Toro Energy,

Strengthening a Top-Tier Uranium Portfolio in a Rising Market

 

Toronto, ON – October 12, 2025 | Perth, Western Australia – October 13, 2025 – IsoEnergy Ltd. (“IsoEnergy”) (NYSE American: ISOU; TSX: ISO) and Toro Energy Ltd. (“Toro”) (ASX: TOE) are pleased to announce that they have entered into a scheme implementation deed (the “SID”) pursuant to which, among other things, IsoEnergy has agreed to acquire all of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares of Toro (the “Toro Shares”)1 by way of a scheme of arrangement under Australia’s Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) (the “Transaction” or the “Scheme”), subject to the satisfaction of various conditions. Toro owns 100% of the Wiluna Uranium Project, located 30km south of the town of Wiluna in the northern goldfields of Western Australia (“Wiluna Uranium Project”).

 

On implementation of the Transaction, the two companies will combine to strengthen IsoEnergy’s development pipeline by adding Toro’s high-quality, scoping-stage Wiluna Uranium Project in Western Australia to IsoEnergy’s existing portfolio, which includes past-producing U.S. mines, the ultra-high-grade Hurricane deposit in Canada’s Athabasca Basin and a diversified suite of development and exploration assets across Canada, the U.S. and Australia. Toro shareholders will gain exposure to a larger, more diversified portfolio of high-quality uranium exploration, development and near-term production assets in tier-one jurisdictions in an enlarged, liquid vehicle while retaining direct exposure to the Wiluna Uranium Project and all other Toro assets.

 

Under the terms of the Transaction, Toro shareholders will receive 0.036 of a common share of IsoEnergy (each whole share, an “ISO Share”) for each Toro Share held on the Scheme record date (the “Exchange Ratio”). Existing shareholders of IsoEnergy and Toro will own approximately 92.9% and 7.1% on a fully-diluted in-the-money basis, respectively, of the outstanding ISO Shares upon implementation of the Transaction.2

 

The Exchange Ratio implies consideration of A$0.584 per Toro Share, representing:3

 

·a 79.7% premium to the last traded price on the ASX of A$0.325 per Toro Share, on October 10, 2025; and

 

·a 92.2% premium to Toro’s 20-day volume weighted average price (“VWAP”) on the ASX as at October 10, 2025.

 

The implied fully-diluted in-the-money equity value of the Transaction is equal to approximately A$75.0million (C$68.1million).4

 

Strategic Rationale

 

·Tier One Uranium Portfolio – The combination of IsoEnergy’s past-producing U.S. mines, the ultra-high-grade Hurricane deposit in Canada’s Athabasca Basin, and multiple development/exploration assets across Canada, the U.S. and Australia with Toro’s flagship Wiluna Uranium Project in Western Australia, creates a development-ready platform with significant near-term production potential in stable, mining-friendly jurisdictions. The Wiluna Uranium Project—comprising the Centipede-Millipede, Lake Way and Lake Maitland deposits—is a scoping-level project with mineral resources that complement IsoEnergy’s development pipeline.

 

 

1 Other than those held by or on behalf of members of the IsoEnergy Group.

2 Based on a pro-forma fully diluted in-the-money shares outstanding of 62,423,144 of the combined entity.

3 Based on the closing price of the ISO Shares over all Canadian exchanges on October 10, 2025 of C$14.73 and an AUD:CAD exchange rate of 0.9078.

4 Based on a Toro’s fully diluted in-the-money shares outstanding of 128,406,848. The implied value is not fixed and depends on the price at which ISO Shares trade.

·Significantly Expands and Diversifies Uranium Resource Base – The pro forma company (“Merged Group”) will hold current NI 43-101 compliant resources of 55.2 Mlbs U3O8 M&I and 4.9 Mlbs U3O8 Inferred5, and JORC 2012 and 2004 compliant resources of 78.1 Mlbs U3O8 M&I and 34.6 U3O8 Mlbs Inferred6 (please see the table on page 26 of this announcement for the breakdown of the JORC 2012 and 2004 compliant resources). The Merged Group will also hold historical resources of 154.3 Mlbs U3O8 M&I and 88.2 Mlbs U3O8 Inferred, establishing a robust and geographically diversified resource base7.8

 

Cautionary statement: The pro forma Merged Group resources include foreign and historical estimates reported by IsoEnergy. These estimates are not reported in accordance with the JORC Code. A competent person has not done sufficient work to classify the historical estimates or foreign estimates as Mineral Resources or Ore Reserves in accordance with the JORC Code. It is uncertain that following evaluation and/or further exploration work that the historical estimates or foreign estimates will be able to be reported as Mineral Resources or Ore Reserves in accordance with the JORC Code.

 

·Strengthens Merged Group’s Exposure to Top Uranium Jurisdictions – Wiluna will become IsoEnergy’s flagship Australian project. Australia ranks #1 globally for uranium resources and was a Top-5 producer in 2024, supported by strong infrastructure and mining institutions9. Western Australia hosts significant undeveloped uranium projects, including Kintyre and Yeelirrie (Cameco) and Mulga Rock (Deep Yellow). Toro shareholders will have exposure to IsoEnergy’s significant near-term production potential in stable, mining friendly jurisdictions in Canada and parts of the U.S.

6 Based on updated mineral resource estimates for the Wiluna Uranium Project Deposits of Lake Maitland announced by Toro on September 24, 2024 and Centipede-Millipede and Lake Way announced by Toro on March 7, 2024, the Dawson Hinkler Satellite Deposit announced by Toro on May 2, 2024, the Nowthanna Deposit announced by Toro on February 1, 2016 and the Theseus Project, announced by Toro on December 5, 2012, prepared in accordance with JORC Code 2012, except Theseus which is in accordance with JORC Code 2004. Information contained in this announcement in connection with the Theseus Project was prepared and first disclosed under the JORC Code 2004. It has not been updated since to comply with the JORC Code 2012 on the basis that the information has not materially changed since it was last reported. The JORC Table 1 relevant to all of the Toro resource estimates can be found in Toro’s ASX announcement of September 24, 2024 (titled “Significant Expansion Stated Lake Maitland Uranium Resource”, except for Theseus, which is found in Toro’s ASX announcement of December 5, 2012 (titled “Maiden Inferred Uranium Resource for Toro’s Theseus Deposit”). For the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 5.23, Toro confirms that it is not aware of any new information or data that materially affects the information included in those original announcements, and that all material assumptions and technical parameters underpinning the estimates in the original announcements continue to apply and have not materially changed.

7 These mineral resources are considered to be “historical estimates” as defined under National Instrument 43-101 - Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects (“NI 43-101”). A Qualified Person has not done sufficient work to classify the historical estimates as current mineral resources or mineral reserves and IsoEnergy is not treating the historical estimates as current mineral resources. See Disclaimer on Mineral Resource Estimates below for additional details.

·Well-Timed to Capitalize on Strong Nuclear Market Momentum – The World Nuclear Association’s 2025 Fuel Report projects uranium demand to rise ~30% by 2030 and to more than double by 2040. A strengthened resource base and diversified jurisdictional exposure is expected to position IsoEnergy to benefit from rapidly tightening supply/demand outlook.

 

·Well Placed to Pursue Value Accretive Growth Opportunities – The Merged Group will have significant balance sheet strength and access to capital markets to fund the Merged Group’s portfolio including Toro’s existing projects.

 

Philip Williams, CEO and Director of IsoEnergy, commented, “The acquisition of Toro Energy marks another important step in advancing IsoEnergy’s strategy to build a globally diversified, development-ready uranium platform. The Wiluna Uranium Project strengthens our portfolio with a large, previously permitted asset in a top-tier jurisdiction at a time when global nuclear demand is accelerating. This transaction positions IsoEnergy to deliver meaningful scale, optionality, and sustained value creation for shareholders. We look forward to welcoming the Toro team, who have done an admirable job stewarding the company and its projects through often challenging markets, to IsoEnergy and advancing the project together.”

 

Richard Homsany, Executive Chairman of Toro, commented, “This Transaction creates significant value for our shareholders, representing a material premium for Toro shareholders of 79.7% to Toro’s last traded price and 92.2% to Toro’s 20 day VWAP. It also provides Toro shareholders the opportunity to be part of a larger, leading uranium company listed on the TSX and NYSE. Toro shareholders will have exposure to a diverse uranium portfolio that has strong growth potential and is located in favourable regulatory jurisdictions, and the ability to attract enhanced access to funding including for the Wiluna Uranium Project.

 

The Toro team will benefit from the significant financial strength of ISO and looks forward to working together on the successful development of the Wiluna Uranium Project for all stakeholders.”

Toro IBC Recommendations and Major Shareholders Intentions

 

Following receipt of an initial, confidential non-binding indicative offer from IsoEnergy, the Toro Board of Directors (the “Toro Board”) established an independent board committee (“Toro IBC”), comprising Richard Homsany and Michel Marier, to consider the proposal. The Toro Board formed the Toro IBC since Richard Patricio (a Toro non-executive director) is also the Chair of the Board of Directors of IsoEnergy.

 

The Toro IBC, and the Board of Directors of IsoEnergy (with Mr. Patricio abstaining from voting) have each unanimously approved the SID. A copy of the SID is included at Annexure A of this announcement.

 

The Toro IBC unanimously recommends that Toro shareholders vote in favour of the Scheme in the absence of a superior proposal and subject to the independent expert's report concluding that the Scheme is in the best interests of Toro shareholders (other than IsoEnergy). Subject to the same qualifications, each member of the Toro IBC intends to vote, or procure the voting of, all Toro Shares held or controlled by them in favour of the Scheme. As at the date of this announcement, the Toro IBC collectively has a relevant interest in 1.8% of the Toro Shares on issue.

 

Substantial shareholder Mega Uranium Ltd. (together with its associate Mega Redport Pty Ltd) (representing 15,226,256 Toro Shares, being 12.7% of all Toro Shares) have provided Toro with a voting intention statement that they each intend to vote in favour of the Scheme, subject to no superior proposal emerging and the independent expert concluding (and continuing to conclude) that the Scheme is in the best interests of Toro shareholders (other than IsoEnergy).12

 

 

10 Based on the closing price of the ISO Shares on the TSX of $14.73, a closing price of A$0.325 of Toro Shares on the ASX and an AUD:CAD exchange rate of 0.9078 on October 10, 2025 and a 20-day VWAP for the period ending October 10, 2025 of Toro Shares on the ASX of A$0.304

11 Based on a pro-forma fully diluted in-the-money shares outstanding of 62,423,144 of the combined entity

12 Mega Uranium Ltd and Mega Redport Pty Ltd have each consented to the inclusion of this voting intention statement in this document.

As at the date of this announcement IsoEnergy holds 6,000,000 Toro Shares (approximately 4.99% of Toro shares on issue at the date of this announcement).

 

Conditions to completion of the Scheme

 

Implementation of the Scheme is subject to various conditions, including (among others):

 

·Approval of Toro shareholders in relation to the Scheme (including approval of more than 50% of the number of Toro shareholders voting and at least 75% of the total votes cast);

 

·Court approval in relation to the Scheme;

 

·No formal changes in Western Australian uranium policy to permit uranium mining and/or mining or development of all or any part of the Wiluna Uranium Project;

 

·All Toro unquoted options having lapsed, been exercised, or cancelled;

 

·Certain regulatory approvals, including Foreign Investment Review Board of Australia, the Australian Securities Exchange (“ASX”), the Toronto Stock Exchange (the “TSX”) and the NYSE American LLC (“NYSE”);

 

·An independent expert concluding (and continuing to conclude) that the Scheme is in the best interests of Toro shareholders (other than IsoEnergy); and

 

·No material adverse change or prescribed occurrences (each as defined in the SID) occurring in relation to either IsoEnergy or Toro and no regulatory restraints.

 

The SID provides for customary deal protection provisions with respect to Toro, including “no shop” as well as “no talk” and “no due diligence” restrictions (subject to customary exceptions to enable the Toro IBC to comply with its fiduciary and statutory duties), notification obligations and a matching right regime in the event any superior proposal is received by Toro. In addition, the SID provides that, under certain circumstances, IsoEnergy or Toro would be entitled to a break fee which, should either become payable, is approximately A$700,000.13

 


Following implementation of the Transaction, the ISO Shares will continue trading on the TSX and NYSE and Toro will be removed from the official list of ASX. If determined appropriate in the future, IsoEnergy may apply for admission to the official list of ASX, and quotation of the ISO Shares on ASX. Any such listing, if pursued, will be subject to IsoEnergy complying with the rules and policies of the ASX in force at such time. IsoEnergy cautions that no decision has been made to apply for an ASX listing, and that it is not a condition of the Transaction that such a listing be pursued. Approximately 54.7 million ISO Shares are currently outstanding on a non-diluted basis and approximately 58.0 million ISO Shares are currently outstanding on a fully-diluted basis. Upon implementation of the Transaction (assuming no additional issuances of ISO Shares or Toro Shares), there will be approximately 59.2 million ISO Shares outstanding on a non-diluted basis and approximately 62.4 million ISO Shares outstanding on a fully-diluted basis.

 

Toro option holders who validly exercise their Toro options and are issued Toro Shares prior to the Scheme record date will be entitled to participate in the Scheme. Toro and IsoEnergy propose to enter into option cancellation deeds with holders of unquoted Toro options (all of which are “out-of-the-money” as at the date of this announcement) pursuant to which the options will, subject to (among other things) the Scheme being approved and becoming effective, be cancelled for a cash payment and/or ISO share issuance14 based on a form of Black-Scholes valuation methodology.

Furthermore, Toro must ensure that all unvested Toro performance rights automatically vest in accordance with their terms upon the Scheme becoming effective and must procure that prior to the Scheme record date, each Toro performance right is converted, such that the relevant Toro performance rights holders are entitled to participate in the Scheme.

  

Timetable

 

Shareholders of Toro will be asked to approve the Scheme at a shareholder meeting which is expected to be held in early 2026.

 

Full particulars of the Scheme will be provided to Toro shareholders in the Scheme Booklet which will include the Independent Expert Report, the reasons for the Independent Toro Directors' recommendation and an explanatory statement in respect of the Scheme.

 

It is expected that the Scheme Booklet will be dispatched to Toro shareholders in early 2026. Toro shareholders are not required to take any action at this stage in relation to the Scheme. It is expected that the Transaction will close in first half of 2026, subject to satisfaction of all conditions, including receipt of all necessary approvals.

For the Daneros Mine, as disclosed in the above noted technical report, the historical estimate was prepared by Energy Fuels using a wireframe model of the mineralized zone based on an outside bound of a 0.05% eu3o8 grade cutoff at a minimum thickness of 1 foot. Surface drilling would need to be conducted to confirm resources and connectivity of resources in order to verify the Daneros historical estimate as a current mineral resource.

 

For the Sage Plain Project, as disclosed in the above noted technical report, the historical estimate was prepared by Peters Geosciences using a modified polygonal method. An exploration program would need to be conducted, including twinning of historical drill holes, in order to verify the Sage Plain historical estimate as a current mineral resource.

 

For the Coles Hill Project, as disclosed in the above noted revised preliminary economic assessment, the historical estimated was prepared by John I Kyle of Lyntek Incorporated. Twinning of a selection of certain holes would need to be completed along with updating of mining, processing and certain cost estimates in order to verify the Coles Hill Project historical resource estimate as a current mineral resource estimate.

 

For Dieter Lake, as disclosed in the above noted technical report, the historical estimate was prepared by Davis & Guo using the Thiessen (Voronoi) polygon method. Data constraints used were 200 ppm, 500 ppm, and 1000ppm u3o8 over a minimum of 1 metre thickness. Polygons created had radii of 200 metres. A rock density of 2.67g/cm3 was used. An exploration program would need to be completed, including twinning of historical drill holes, in order to verify the Dieter Lake historical estimate as a current mineral resource.

 

For Matoush, as disclosed in the above noted press release, the historical estimate was prepared by RPA using block U3O8 grades within a wireframe model that were estimated by ordinary kriging. The historical estimate was estimated at a cut-off grade of 0.1% U3O8 and using an average long-term uranium price of us$75 per pound. Six zones make up the historical estimate at Matoush: am-15, mt-34, mt-22, mt-02, mt-06, and mt-36. Each zone is made up of one or more lenses, most of which strike north (009°) and dip steeply (87°) to the east. Outlines of the mineralized lenses were interpreted on ten-metre spaced vertical sections. Minimum criteria of 0.10% U3O8 over 1.5 m true thickness was used as a guide. An exploration program would need to be conducted, including twinning of historical drill holes, in order to verify the Matoush historical estimate as a current mineral resource.

 

For Ben Lomond, as disclosed in the above noted technical report, the historical estimate was prepared by the Australian Atomic Energy Commission (AAEC) using a sectional method. The parameters used in the selection of the ore intervals were a minimum true thickness of 0.5 metres and maximum included waste (true thickness) of 5 metres. Resource zones were outlined on 25 metre sections using groups of intersections, isolated intersections were not included. The grades from the composites were area weighted to give the average grade above a threshold of 500 ppm uranium. The area was measured on each 25 metres section to give the tonnage at a bulk density of 2.603. An exploration program would need to be conducted, including twinning of historical drill holes, in order to verify the Ben Lomond historical estimate as a current mineral resource.

 

For the Milo Project, as disclosed in the above noted scoping study, the historical estimate was prepared by Peter Owens and Basile Dean of Mining One Consultants. An exploration program would need to be conducted, including twinning of a selection of certain holes, along with updating of mining processing and certain cost estimates in order to verify the Milo Project historical resource estimate as a current mineral resource estimate.

 

In each instance, the historical estimate is reported using the categories of mineral resources and mineral reserves as defined by the Canadian Institute CIM Definition Standards for Mineral Reserves, and mineral reserves at that time, and these “historical estimates” are not considered by IsoEnergy to be current. In each instance, the reliability of the historical estimate is considered reasonable, but a Qualified Person has not done sufficient work to classify the historical estimate as a current mineral resource, and neither IsoEnergy nor Toro is treating the historical estimate as a current mineral resource. The historical information provides an indication of the exploration potential of the properties but may not be representative of expected results.

Listing Rule Explanation Commentary
5.12.1 The source and date of the historical estimates or foreign estimates. Milo: Milo Mineral Resource Statement: 22 November 2012 contained in an ASX Announcement by GBM Resources Ltd (ASX:GBZ).

Ben Lomond: McKay, A. D., 1982, Ben Lomond Deposit: In Situ Uranium Resource Estimate. Confidential Report of the Australian Atomic Energy Commission Uranium Resource Evaluation Unit.

 

Vigar, A & Jones, D. 2005 Technical Report on the Mining Leases Covering the Ben Lomond Uranium – Molybdenum Deposit Queensland, Australia. Prepared for Maple Minerals Corporation as a NI-43-101 Report. Available at https://ww.sedarplus.ca.

Coles Hill: The Coles Hill Mineral Resources are considered to be historic in nature. The most recent Mineral Resource estimate was prepared by Lyntek, Inc. and BRS Engineering in 2013 (Kyle, John I., P. E. and Douglas Beahm, P.E., P.G., 2013; NI 43-101 Preliminary Economic Assessment Update (REVISED), Coles Hill Uranium Property, Pittsylvania County, Virginia, United States of America, and is based upon assay and geologic data collected by the former owner, Marline Oil Co, who drilled out the project between 1979 and 1981. All assays and geotechnical data used to develop the Mineral Resource estimate for the Coles Hill project was generated from that exploration program.
Tony M: IsoEnergy's Tony M mine project has a Mineral Resource estimate that is current within the context of the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (CIM) Code for Mineral Reserves and Mineral Resources (CIM Code). While the CIM Code is a foreign estimate, its classification of Mineral Resources is similar in most respects to those of the JORC Code.
Daneros: The Mineral Resource estimate for the Daneros mine project of IsoEnergy is considered to be historic in nature. Historical exploration data used in IsoEnergy's project evaluation was derived from surface rotary and core holes drilled by Utah Power & Light and White Canyon Uranium (collectively 603 drill holes), and underground long holes (583 holes) drilled by Deneson Mines and Energy Fuels. Various Mineral Resource estimates, all of which are historical in nature and not in compliance with the JORC Code in 2009 for White Canyon Uranium and Energy Fuels, Inc. in 2012 and 2018. The data used to prepare those reports was historical exploration drilling data and geologic information from prior mining operations.

Dieter Lake: The most recent historical, foreign Mineral Resource estimate done for the Dieter Lake project in Northern Quebec is documented in two reports. The first is “2005 Exploration at the Dieter Lake Property, Quebec dated November 3, 2006” by Dahrouge Geological Consulting Ltd. for Strathmore Minerals Corporation which for the first time describes the new resource estimate. This estimate, along with an update on exploration activity from 2007 to 2011, was repeated in "Technical Report on the Dieter Lake Property, Quebec, Canada" dated October 7, 2011”, prepared GeoVector Management Inc. for Fission Energy Corp (www.sedarplus.ca). Clinton Davis was an author on both reports. Michael Guo did the 2005 modelling and was a co-author on the 2006 report. Prior to the 2005 estimate, historical resource estimates had been completed in 1981, 1989, and 2004.

Sage Plain: Mineral resources for IsoEnergy’s Sage Plain project were estimated by an independent contractor to the project's then current owner, Energy Fuels, Inc. and reported in the "Updated Technical Report on Sage Plain Project (including the Calliham Mine)" dated March 18, 2015 and authored by Douglas C. Peters, CPG of Peters Geosciences. The Technical Report follows the format of NI 43-101, but the author did not identify any Mineral Reserve and Mineral Resource code used to classify the mineralization. Resources were estimated by employing a polygonal method. IsoEnergy considers the Sage Plain resources to be historic in nature.

    Matoush: The most recent historical, foreign Mineral Resource estimate is documented in “Technical Report on the Mineral Resource Update for the Matoush Project, Central Québec, Canada, NI43-101 Report” dated February 15, 2012, prepared by David A. Ross, R. Barry Cook, Normand L. Lecuyer, and Bruce Fielder (Melis Engineering Ltd.) of Roscoe Postle Associates Inc. (“RPA”) for Strateco Resources Inc. This report is available on www.sedarplus.ca. The historical, foreign Mineral Resource estimate was further updated by RPA in December 2012, as disclosed in a press release of Strateco dated December 7, 2012, and in Strateco Resources' Annual Information For, dated March 21, 2013 (available on www.sedarplus.ca). RPA updated the Mineral Resource estimate for the Matoush project based on drill results available as at November 22, 2012.
Hurricane: The most recent foreign Mineral Resource estimate is documented in "Technical Report on the Larocque East Project, Northern Saskatchewan, Canada" for IsoEnergy Ltd. This report was prepared by Mark B. Mathisen of SLR Consulting (Canada) Ltd. ("SLR"). Two versions, both with an effective date of July 8, 2022, are available at www.sedarplus.ca - one with a signature date of July 12, 2022, and an amended version with a signature date of August 4, 2022. It is explained in the amended report that this Technical Report conforms to NI 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects and replaces the technical report filed on SEDAR on July 19, 2022, which has been revised to correct the typographical error related to the Indicated U3O8 grades in Table 14-11, which summarizes the block model sensitivity to cut-off grade. Additional typographical errors have been corrected to align the descriptions of historical drilling in Section 6 with Table 10-1. The recommended work plan has been revised.
5.12.2 Whether the historical estimates or foreign estimates use categories of mineralisation other than those defined in Appendix 5A (JORC Code) and if so, an explanation of the differences. Milo: The Inferred resource was calculated in accordance with JORC 2004.
Ben Lomond: The Inferred resource used JORC terminology of the time (1982).
Coles Hill: Estimates of Mineral Resources for the Coles Hill project were prepared in accordance with Canadian National Instrument 43-101 and CIM standards that were in effect at the time that the resource estimate was prepared (2013). The estimate predates the current CIM Standards and CIM Estimation of Mineral Resources & Mineral Reserves Best Practices Guidelines, which became effective in November, 2019. IsoEnergy considers the Coles Hill resources to be historical in nature. The use of "Inferred Mineral Resources" and "Indicated Mineral Resources" follow the requirements of the CIM Code. The definitions of such classifications ("Inferred Mineral Resources" and "Indicated Mineral Resources") are similar to those classifications under the JORC Code, and there are no differences in the definitions of "Inferred Mineral Resources" and "Indicated Mineral Resources" between the two Codes.
Tony M: The "current" Mineral Resource estimate for the Tony M project was prepared in compliance with the CIM Definition Standards for Mineral Resources & Mineral Reserves (2014), CIM Uranium Leading Practice Guidelines (2024) and Canadian National Instrument 43-101. The definitions of Mineral Resource classifications for "Indicated Mineral Resources" and "Inferred Mineral Resources" under the CIM Code are similar to the JORC Code definitions of "Inferred Mineral Resources" and "Indicated Mineral Resources".
Daneros: Mineral resources for the Daneros Mine project were estimated for former project owner Energy Fuels, Inc. by Douglas C. Peters, CPG and this estimate is contained within the "Updated Report On The Daneros Mine Project, San Juan County, Utah, U. S. A." dated March 2, 2018. Although the resource is considered to be historic, the estimate uses resource classifications that are the same as those of the JORC Code.
Dieter Lake: The Davis and Guo (2006) report and contained Mineral Resource estimate predate the current CIM Standards (May 2014) and CIM Estimation of Mineral Resources & Mineral Reserves Best Practices Guidelines (November 2019), and for IsoEnergy the Mineral Resources are a historical estimate under National Instrument 43-101 – Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects ("NI 43-101") and a qualified person has not done sufficient work to classify the historical estimate as current Mineral Resources. It is uncertain whether the Inferred resources in the 2006 report would qualify as Inferred resources under JORC standards.

 

13

 

 

    Sage Plain: Resources estimated and reported in the 2015 Technical Report on the Sage Plain Project" are historical in nature do not appear to be consistent with Mineral Resource codes in effect at the time of the report.
Matoush: The Ross et al (2012) report and contained Mineral Resource estimate, and the historical, foreign Mineral Resource update in the March 21, 2013 Strateco Resources Annual Information Form predate the current CIM Standards (May 2014) and CIM Estimation of Mineral Resources & Mineral Reserves Best Practices Guidelines (November 2019), and for IsoEnergy the Mineral Resources are a historical estimate under National Instrument 43-101 – Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects ("NI 43-101") and a Competent Person has not done sufficient work to classify the historical estimate as current Mineral Resources. It is uncertain whether the Inferred and Indicated resources in the 2012 report would qualify as Inferred resources under JORC (2012) standards.
Hurricane: The Mathison (2022) report conforms to NI 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for mineral projects. Foreign mineral resources were classified in accordance with definitions for mineral resources in the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (CIM) Definition Standards for Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves dated May 10, 2014. The definitions of Mineral Resource classifications for "Indicated Mineral Resources" and "Inferred Mineral Resources" under the CIM Code are similar to the JORC Code definitions of "Indicated Mineral Resources" and "Inferred Mineral Resources".
5.12.3 The relevance and materiality of the historical estimates or foreign estimates to the entity. Milo, Ben Lomond, Daneros, Dieter Lake, Sage Plain, Matoush, Coles Hill: The estimate is considered relevant however not material in the context of global uranium resources held.
Tony M: The Tony M project Mineral Resources are "current" under the CIM Code and are not "historic" in nature. As such they are relevant and are material to IsoEnergy.
Hurricane: The Mathisen (2022) foreign Mineral Resource estimate, is considered to be both relevant and material to IsoEnergy.
5.12.4 The reliability of historical estimates or foreign estimates, including by reference to any of the criteria in Table 1 of Appendix 5A (JORC Code) which are relevant to understanding the reliability of the historical estimates or foreign estimates. Milo: The estimates would require some additional work to conform to JORC 2012 however the methodologies for preparing the resource estimates have not changed significantly in comparison to previous reporting.
Ben Lomond: The estimate is indicative of the mineralisation present however substantial re-drilling and assaying, down hole surveys and radiometric logging etc would be required to provide a JORC 2012 resource estimate.
Coles Hill: Although the Coles Hill resource estimate is considered to be an accurate and relevant representation of the nature of the uranium mineralization at the project, additional work, as per the recommendations in the technical report, will be required for the resources to be reclassified as "current" under the CIM Code and the CIM Uranium Leading Practice Guidelines (2024). The existing resource estimate was prepared in accordance with the then-prevailing NI 43-101 and CIM standards, although the drill hole data that forms the basis of the resource estimate had not been confirmed at the time the estimate was prepared. While this estimate predates the current CIM Standards (2014) and CIM Estimation of Mineral Resources & Mineral Reserves Best Practices Guidelines (November, 2019), the methodologies for preparing and evaluating the resource estimates have not changed significantly in comparison to those in effect at the time of the most recent estimate (2013). The historical Mineral Resources are considered to be reliable.

    Tony M: The Tony M resources are relevant and reliable in the context of evaluating the project. The resources are "current" and are not historical in nature.
Daneros: Resources at the Daneros mine are not "current" and are historic in nature. However, they may be relevant to the evaluation of the project and its exploration potential in the future.
Dieter Lake: The historical, foreign, Inferred resources presented in both the Davis and Guo (2006) and Davis (2011) reports predate the current CIM Standards (May 2014) and CIM Estimation of Mineral Resources & Mineral Reserves Best Practices Guidelines (November 2019), and for IsoEnergy the Inferred resources are a historical estimate under National Instrument 43-101 – Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects ("NI 43-101") and a Competent Person has not done sufficient work to classify the historical estimate as current Mineral Resources. Until this work is done, the reliability of the historical Dieter Lake resource estimate is uncertain.
Sage Plain: The methodology for resource estimation used for the Sage Plain project is consistent with historical work throughout the central Colorado Plateau uranium region. Polygonal estimation methodology, and the classification of resources and/or reserves derived from such studies have served small underground uranium mining adequately for decades. While local miners are familiar with the classifications and methodologies, they are not appropriate or reliable for IsoEnergy.
Matoush: The Ross et al (2012) report and contained Mineral Resource estimate, and the historical, foreign Mineral Resource update in the March 21, 2013 Strateco Resources Annual Information Form predate the current CIM Standards (May 2014) and CIM Estimation of Mineral Resources & Mineral Reserves Best Practices Guidelines (November 2019), and for IsoEnergy the Mineral Resources are a historical estimate under National Instrument 43-101 – Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects ("NI 43-101") and a Competent Person has not done sufficient work to classify the historical, foreign estimate as current Mineral Resources. Until this work is done, the reliability of the historical, foreign Mineral Resource estimate is uncertain, and it is uncertain whether the Inferred and Indicated resources in the 2012 report would qualify as Inferred and Indicated resources under JORC (2012) standards.
Hurricane: The Mathison (2022) report conforms to NI 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for mineral projects. Foreign Mineral Resources were classified in accordance with definitions for Mineral Resources in the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (CIM) Definition Standards for Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves dated May 10, 2014 current CIM Standards (May 2014), and IsoEnergy reports the Mineral Resources as a compliant estimate under National Instrument 43-101 – Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects ("NI 43-101").
5.12.5 To the extent known, a summary of work programs on which the historical estimates or foreign estimates are based and a summary of the key assumptions, mining and processing parameters and methods used to prepare the historical or foreign estimates.

Milo: The most recent JORC 2004 Mineral Resource estimate was completed for the Milo Project by Kerrin Allwood F.AusIMM and published as a JORC 2004 Resource in 2012 (Allwood.K , Nov, 2012). The Nov, 2012 historical JORC 2004 Resource estimate was calculated for co-incident TREEYO & P2O5 and a copper equivalent resource comprising Au, Ag, Cu, Mo, Co & U. The Milo JORC 2004 estimate block model was generated from 34 drillholes and 9878 samples with a total core length of 11572m, all of which were competed by GBM Resources Ltd (ASX:GBZ) from 2009 to 2012.

 

Detailed summaries of the GBM Resources Ltd drill programs completed from 2009 to 2012 are covered in Allwood & Norris (Feb, 2012), Allwood & Norris . (August, 2012), and Allwood & Norris (Nov, 2012). The objective of diamond drill programs from 2009 to 2012 was to verify and test the Milo deposit ( 22 drillholes, 3696 samples ) (, Allwood & Norris Feb, 2012), identify anomalous intersections in the Milo deposit for follow up drilling Allwood & Norris . (August, 2012), 31 drillholes for 11464m of drilling and complete a further 3 drillholes to complete the Inferred resource for an initial Scoping Study Allwood & Norris ( Nov, 2012), 34 drillholes, 11572m, 3503 RC, 8069 DD. 9878m sampled at largely 1m intervals.

Ben Lomond: In total 73,151 m of drilling was completed with 63,292 available for the quatoed estimate. ( detailed below ). All holes were radiometrically logged. The data was digitised so that computer analysis including the restitution of logs and the estimation of resources, could be carried out at various cut-off grades.


Chemical analyses of the core gave the required control for the radiometric equivalent-grade calculations, by defining the equilibrium ratio between radiometric grade and the actual grade as determined by analysis. Extensive documentation exists on the calibration of the various spectrometers used during the drilling campaigns and a different calibration factor is used for each. The actual uranium values used are therefore a combination of actual assays and down-hole spectrometer probe readings. Correlation overall is good and discrepancies minor (McKay 1982).


The parameters used in the selection of the ore intervals were a minimum true thickness of 0.5 metres and maximum included waste (true thickness) of 5 metres. Resource zones were outlined on 25m sections using groups of intersections, isolated intersections were not included. The grades from the composites were area weighted to give the average grade above a threshold of 500 ppm uranium. The area was measured on each 25m section to give the tonnage at a bulk density of 2.603

 

The resource categories were chosen based on the Australian JORC code guidelines of the time. The categories were:

 

· Indicated -- extend up to 5 metres from a drill-hole up or down dip, or half the distance to the next drill-hole if less than 5 metres.

 

· Inferred - extend 5 to 15 metres from a drill-hole up or down dip, or half the distance to the next drill-hole if between 5 and 15 metres.

Coles Hill: The Coles Hill uranium deposits were discovered by Marline Oil in 1979 and 1980. Marline conducted a large-scale core drilling program to test their previously identified geophysical, radiometric, and geochemical anomalies at the project site, and this work resulted in the initial definition of the Coles Hill North and South uranium deposits. The Marline core drilling program extended into 1981, and the data generated from that drilling program has served as the basis for all subsequent resource estimations. In 1982 Union Carbide Corporation (later known as Umetco) entered into a joint venture with Marline with the objective of preparing a feasibility study that would lead to the development of the Coles Hill uranium deposits and advance the project to a production status. Mineral resource estimates for the project that are considered to be relevant to the project were prepared utilizing the radiometric and chemical assays derived from the 1979-1981 drilling program of 263 core holes, as well as 3 core holes drilled at the property in 2008. The fundamental assay and geological data for the project was preserved, and a significant portion of the core was stored in covered facilities. Comparison of historical assay data with "check" assays from sampling programs in 2008 and 2013 generally confirmed the validity of the historical data. The Mineral Resource estimate for the project were estimated by BRS Engineering, a Wyoming-based independent minerals exploration and engineering company that has extensive experience in the evaluation of uranium projects. BRS employed radiometric assay data from 264 drill holes to develop the estimate of Mineral Resources at Coles Hill. Drill hole assay data was compiled in Datamine software at an interval of 0.50 feet within a “mineralized envelope” of 0.02% eU3O8 to constrain grade interpolation. A sample composite of 1.0 feet was selected.

 

The kriging methodology employed optimum block sizes and the optimum number of samples to access in the estimate were determined by a number of test runs on strategically placed blocks in high density and low-density areas in each area. The optimum parameters were determined by observing what produced the best regression slope (R) and kriging efficiency, and the lowest spread in 90% confidence limits, but still retaining the smallest block size relating to the probable future smallest mining unit (“SMU”). These three parameters produced good correlations amongst themselves. Three separate searches were affected, namely 1 times the range of the variogram, 1.5 times the range of the variogram and 2 times the range of the variogram. For the North Coles a minimum of 17 samples and a maximum of 25 samples were deemed to be geostatistically appropriate for the first two searches. The 3rd search was set at a minimum of 8 samples and a maximum of 25 samples. For the South Coles a minimum of 10 samples and a maximum of 20 samples for the first two searches and for the 3rd a minimum of 8 samples and a maximum of 20 samples were deemed to be appropriate (Figures 19 and 21). The search was confined to a specific layer due to the vertical variability of the mineralization and therefore the octant search method was deemed unnecessary. A draft NI 43-101 Preliminary Economic Assessment date (Revised) on the Coles Hill project was prepared for former owner Virginia Energy in 2013 by John Kyle of Lyntek, Inc. and Douglas Beahm, principal Engineer of BRS Engineering, Inc. This study, which is not publicly available, includes data verification information for all of the drill hole information, including assays, as well as summaries of metallurgical testing undertaken by Umetco Minerals, proposed mining methods, metallurgical recovery methods, and proposed project infrastructure. Copies of this report are in IsoEnergy's files. This study of the Coles Hill project included data on mining and mineral processing methodologies in sufficient detail to identify cut-off grade criteria for estimation of Mineral Resources.

Tony M: The Tony M uranium deposit and several other similar and nearby deposits were discovered in a remote part of southeast Utah in the mid 1970s by Plateau Resources, a subsidiary of a midwestern US electrical utility company. Plateau's discovery was made through wide-spaced exploration drilling in an area of several very small-scale underground mines. The newly discovered deposits were outlined by conventional "open hole" rotary drilling and "spot "coring of potentially economic mineralization within favorable flat lying sandstones. Plateau commenced with the development of a large-scale room and pillar underground mine in 1978. There was limited uranium production from Tony M prior to its shut-down in 1984, but production was restarted for a short period of time in 2007-2008, before being shut down again due to low commodity prices. From the time of discovery to shut-down of mining operations at Tony M a considerable amount of drill data from surface drilling and underground long-hole drilling was collected, and that data, as well as mine operational data and metallurgical recovery information provided a substantial foundation for a new Mineral Resource estimate that was prepared in 2022 by SLR International Corporation. and these data conform to Canadian National Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects. The report, entitled “Technical Report on the Tony M Mine, Utah, USA Report for NI 43-101” is dated September 9, 2022, and can be viewed via IsoEnergy’s profile on the SEDAR Plus web site (accessed 8/11/2025). The resource estimate was based upon the results of 1,678 vertical conventional (“open hole”) rotary drill holes, totalling 947,610 feet. One thousand six hundred seventy of the drill holes were completed by former owner of the Tony M mine Plateau Resources and the remainder (eight) were completed by IsoEnergy. The eight IsoEnergy holes were drilled as offsets to holes previously drilled by Plateau in order to confirm the results of the historical drill holes. The holes drilled by IsoEnergy included 2,555 feet of “conventional” open hole rotary drilling and 439 feet of core. All holes were vertical in orientation. Mineral resources at the Tony M project were classified in accordance with the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (CIM) Definition Standards for Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves, dated May 10, 2014, definitions which are incorporated by reference in NI 43-101.

 

SLR estimated the resources using a conventional block modelling approach utilizing the inverse squared (ID2) methodology and length-weighted 1.0- foot uncapped composites to estimate the uranium grades (% eU3O8) in a three-pass approach. The resource estimate was based upon a US$65 per pound uranium price, and a cut-off grade oof 0.14% eU3O8. IsoEnergy is in possession of all of the technical data used to prepare the current Mineral Resource estimate.

Daneros: The Daneros mine project has been the site for numerous exploration and development activities since the early 1950s. Much of the data from those efforts has been lost or is not accessible to IsoEnergy. Recent mine production and exploration undertaken by IsoEnergy has provided data for evaluation of the project and exploration planning but is not complete enough for a new resource estimate or for updated mine planning.
Dieter Lake: Based on the Davis and Guo (2006) and Davis (2011) reports, the 2006 historical, foreign Mineral Resource estimate, which is repeated in the 2011 report, used both 2005 drill core resampling data and historic data from 96 drill holes. Resource modelling was also updated in 2005 as part of the evaluation of the data collected during the 2005 exploration program and compared to the existing historical resource model. This estimate used 200 m radius polygons, a minimum cutoff of 200 ppm over 1 metre, and a density of 2.67g/cm3.
Sage Plain: Records of exploration results and uranium production from the Sage Plain project area are generally limited to borehole gamma-ray logs, and drill hole maps of programs carried out periodically, and they have served as the basis for the historical estimates. The historic resource estimates for the Sage Plain project were generally calculated using either a polygonal or circle-tangent modelling method, both of which have been superseded by more applicable geostatistical resource estimation methods. Summaries of historical exploration and mining activities at the Sage Plain project are not available to IsoEnergy. The historical resource estimates do not conform to either the current JORC Code or the CIM Code.

Matoush: The Ross et al (2012) historical, foreign Mineral Resource estimate in the NI43-101 report dated February 15, 2012 for Strateco Resources utilized drill hole data available as of December 31, 2011 when the Matoush Gemcom database included 515 diamond core holes up to and including hole MT-11-039. Of these, 392 holes representing 175,190 m of drilling are located within the area of resources. The wireframe models representing the mineralized zones are intersected by 150 drill holes. As of December 31, 2011, chemical analyses for all holes had been received. Equivalent U3O8 (eU3O8) values were not used for this resource estimate, as was done in previous resource estimates. A set of cross-sections and plan views were used to construct three-dimensional wireframe models at a cut-off grade of 0.1% U3O8. High-grade values were cut to 9% U3O8 prior to compositing. Outlines of the mineralized lenses were interpreted on ten-metre spaced vertical sections. Minimum criteria of 0.1% U3O8 over 1.5 m true thickness was used as a guide. Narrow intercepts grading 0.05% to 0.1% U3O8 located adjacent to the main mineralized intercept were included. Where necessary, the wireframe intercept was “bulked out” to a minimum of 1.5 m true thickness. Low-grade intercepts were included in the initial wireframe models for zones MT-34 and MT-22. Many of these intercepts were removed by clipping the resource wireframe if below 0.1% U3O8. Some intersections grading 0.05% to 0.1% U3O8 were included in the grade interpolation to preserve continuity and/or maintain a soft boundary. Variogram parameters were interpreted from two-metre composited values. Sample intervals within the wireframe models range from ten centimetres to five metres, and average 70 cm. Assays within the wireframe models were composited to two-metre lengths starting at the first mineralized wireframe boundary from the collar and resetting at each new lens wireframe boundary. Several shorter composites occur at the bottom of the mineralized zone, immediately above where the drill hole exits the wireframe. Partial composites less than 60 cm long were removed from the dataset. Non-assayed intervals were treated as zero grade. Block U3O8 grades within the wireframe models were estimated by ordinary kriging. For density, RPA reviewed results of 945 bulk density measurements made by Strateco technicians using the water immersion method. RPA concluded that smaller samples may have poor accuracy and precision, and therefore elected to use only samples weighing greater than 450 g to calculate the average density of mineralization at 2.6 t/m3. This factor was then used to convert resource volumes to a tonnage. RPA manually classified the Mineral Resources based on drill hole spacing, geology, lens thickness, continuity, and variogram ranges. Most areas of Indicated are supported by 30 m to 40 m drill hole spacing, with some exceptions in areas of thicker and more continuous mineralization where drill hole spacing up to 50 m was included. The drill hole spacing in the AM-15 zone is generally less than 20 m. The MT-34 (Main lens), South lens, and most of the North Lens were classified as Indicated. Although there are some areas of closely spaced drilling in the upper MT-34 (part of AM-15 zone) and South lenses, no blocks were classified as measured because grade and geometrical continuity has not been established to the confidence level required for the measured category.

    In 2012, Strateco Resources carried out an additional 15,000-metres drilling, including some 11,000 metres of definition drilling aimed at outlining the Indicated resource within the boundaries of the new Inferred resource zones. On December 7, 2012, the Strateco Resources announced the results of the latest Matoush project historical, foreign Mineral Resource update by RPA, which showed that the Indicated Mineral Resource had increased since the previous resource estimate, dated February 15, 2012. The update was based on drill results available as of November 22, 2012 and was also published in their March 21, 2013 Annual Information Form which is available on www.sedarplus.ca
   

Hurricane: The cut-off date of the Mineral Resource database is March 22, 2022, which represents the date in which all assays were received from IsoEnergy’s Winter 2022 drill program. The Hurricane resource database, dated March 22, 2022, includes drill hole collar locations (including dip and azimuth), assay, alteration, geochemical, and lithology data from 106 drill holes totalling 37,875.3 m of drilling completed from 1983 through spring of 2022. A total of 785 samples of the 1,504 in the database were contained within the mineralized uranium wireframes. The wireframe models representing the Hurricane low-grade (LG), medium-grade (MG) and high-Grade (HG) mineralized zones are intersected by 48 of 106 drill holes. Geological interpretations supporting the estimate were generated by SLR and reviewed by IsoEnergy personnel. Wireframe models of mineralized zones were used to constrain the block model grade interpolation process. The models represent grade envelopes using the geological interpretation described above as guidance.

 

The wireframes consisted of a LG domain using a nominal COG of 0.05% U3O8 and a minimum core length of one metre. SLR considers the selection of 0.05% U3O8 to be appropriate for construction of mineralized wireframe outlines, as this value reflects the lowest COG that is expected to be applied for reporting of the Mineral Resources in an underground operating scenario and is consistent with other known deposits in the Athabasca Basin. Sample intervals with assay results less than the nominated COG were included within the mineralized wireframes if the core length was less than two metres or allowed for modelling of grade continuity. Wireframes of the MG and HG domains were created using a grade intercept limit equal to or greater than one metre with a minimum grade of 5% U3O8 and 25% U3O8, respectively, although lower grades were incorporated in places to maintain continuity and to meet a minimum thickness of one metre.

 

20

 

 

   

Uranium outliers were capped at 5% U3O8 and 20% U3O8 within the LG and MG domains, resulting in a total of 10 capped assay values. No capping was applied to the HG domain. SLR’s QP chose to limit the influence of the higher grade composites by employing spatial restriction in the High Grade domain. SLR used the Leapfrog restrictive search tool “clamp” that reduces the high value to a threshold value once the maximum distance is reached rather than discarding the high grade composite completely. The maximum distance of influence was set to 15 m x 15 m x 1.5 m with a grade x density threshold value of 250 (approximately equivalent to 55% U3O8) in both estimation passes. Composites were created from the capped, raw assay values using the downhole compositing function of Seequent Leapfrog Geo modelling software package. The composite lengths used during interpolation were chosen considering the predominant sampling length, the minimum mining width, style of mineralization, and continuity of grade, and ranged from 0.5 m to 3.0 m within the wireframe models, with 97.2% of the samples taken at 0.5 m intervals. Given this distribution, and considering the width of the mineralization, the SLR QP chose to composite to one metre lengths. Assays within the wireframe domains were composited starting at the first mineralized wireframe boundary from the collar and resetting at each new wireframe boundary. Assays were capped prior to compositing. A small number of unsampled and missing sample intervals were ignored. Residual composites were maintained in the dataset.

 

SLR generated downhole, omni-directional, and directional variograms using the one metre U3O8 composite values located within the LG and MG mineralized domains. The MG domain variogram was calculated using composites located within MG and HG wireframes to allow for more pairs in the analysis. The variograms were used to support search ellipsoid anisotropy, linear trends observed in the data, and Mineral Resource classification decisions. The downhole variograms suggests a relative nugget effect of approximately 10%. Long range directional variograms were focused in the primary plane of mineralization, which commonly strikes northeast and horizontally across the strike direction. Most ranges were interpreted to be 27 m to 35 m. The uranium grade was used to estimate the density of each sample with the polynomial formula. Densities were then interpolated into the block model to convert mineralized volumes to tonnage and were also used to weight the uranium grades interpolated into each block. All modelling work was carried out using Leapfrog Edge version 2021.2.4 software. The Hurricane block model has 5 m x 2 m x 1 m whole blocks. A regularized whole block approach was used whereby the block was assigned to the domain where its centroid was located. The variables Grade, Density, and Grade x Density were interpolated for U3O8 using the inverse distance cubed (ID3) methodology. Estimation of grades was controlled by mineralized wireframe zones. In order to reproduce the direction of the thin, folded, and faulted domains, SLR employed a variable orientation tool in Leapfrog Edge. The tool allows the search to be locally adjusted to the orientation of the mineralization, which results in improved local grade estimates. SLR used the hanging wall and footwall of each domain to guide the variable direction search.

 

Hard boundaries were used to limit the use of composites between different mineralization domains for U3O8 interpolation. SLR validated the block model using the following methods:

 

·      Swath plots of composite grades versus ID3, ordinary kriging (OK), and nearest neighbour (NN) grades in the X, Y, and Z

 

·      Volumetric comparison of blocks versus wireframes

 

·      Visual Inspection of block versus composite grades on plan, vertical, and long section

 

·      Statistical comparison of block grades with assay and composite grades

 

21

 

 

   

SLR found grade continuity to be reasonable and confirmed that the block grades were reasonably consistent with local drill hole composite grades.

 

A review of other uranium development projects and operating mines in the Athabasca Basin was undertaken to ascertain certain operating parameters as they relate to the estimate of a cut-off grade (COG).

 

The following assumptions were used in the development of the COG for Hurricane:

 

·      Hurricane would be developed using remote mining extraction methods similar to other development projects or operating mines in the Athabasca Basin.

 

·      Metallurgical recovery is assumed to be similar to other past and present uranium mines in the Athabasca Basin.

 

·      The long-term U3O8 price is assumed to be US$65/lb U3O8, and the exchange rate is assumed to be C$/US$ = 0.75.

 

·      Provincial revenue royalties are based on guidelines published by the Saskatchewan government.

 

·      Operating costs would be representative of a remote mining extraction method.

 

Applying these factors resulted in a COG of 1.00% U3O8.

 

Classification of Mineral Resources as defined in Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum definition Standards for Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves (CIM 2014) were followed for classification of Mineral Resources.

 

The SLR QP has considered the following factors that can affect the uncertainty associated with each classification of Mineral Resources: reliability of sampling data, confidence in interpretation and modelling of geological and estimation domains, and confidence in block grade estimates. The SLR QP offers the following conclusions related to each of these factors:

 

·      Reliability of sampling data:

 

o      Drilling, sampling, sample preparation, and assay procedures follow industry standards.

 

o      Data verification and validation work confirm drill hole sample databases are reliable.

 

o      No significant biases were observed in the QA/QC analysis results.

 

·      Confidence in interpretation and modelling of geological and estimation domains:

 

o      Mineralization domains are interpreted manually in cross-sections and refined in longitudinal sections by an experienced resource geologist.

 

o      There is good agreement between the drill holes and mineralization wireframe shapes

 

o      The mineralization wireframe shapes are well defined by sample data in areas classified as Indicated.

 

·      Confidence in block grade estimates:

 

o      Indicated block grades correlate well, spatially and statistically, with composite data, both locally and globally.

 

22

 

 

    Blocks were classified as Indicated or Inferred based on drill hole spacing, confidence in the geological interpretation, and apparent continuity of mineralization. All the blocks within the HG domains and blocks within the MG domain with apparent grade continuity from two or more holes were classified as Indicated. For the LG grade domain, blocks that did not meet the criteria of grade x thickness (GT) greater than or equal to 1.0%*m were removed from the Mineral Resource reporting. All remaining blocks within the MG and LG domains were assigned an Inferred category.
5.12.6 Any more recent estimates or data relevant to the reported mineralisation available to the entity.

Milo, Ben Lomond, Coles Hill, Tony M, Daneros, Dieter Lake, Sage Plain, Matoush, Hurricane: No more recent estimates have been completed or data relevant to the reported mineralisation is available.

 

Additional technical information, derived primarily from exploration drilling, is limited in scope and has no impact upon the Mineral Resource estimates.

5.12.7 The evaluation and/or exploration work that needs to be completed to verify the historical estimates or foreign estimates as Mineral Resources or Ore Reserves in accordance with Listing Rules Appendix 5A (JORC Code). For all projects, it is noted that IsoEnergy is not required to disclose its Mineral Resources or Ore Reserve estimates in accordance with the JORC Code, as it is a Canadian entity and is not admitted to the official list of ASX. Accordingly, there is no present intention to undertake work for the purposes of reporting IsoEnergy’s Mineral Resource estimates in accordance with the JORC Code.
Milo: The data would require review and preparation of a Table 1. The copper equivalent would require updating in line with JORC 2012.      
Ben Lomond: A substantial re-drilling / drilling campaign would be required with the associated work necessary to report the resource in accordance with JORC (2012).

Coles Hill, Tony M: It is expected that all future Mineral Reserve and Mineral Resource estimates of IsoEnergy will be prepared in accordance with the then-prevailing Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum Code and Canadian National Instrument NI 43- 101. Planning and scheduling of future work that may be required to advance the Mineral Resources from an historical classification to a current Mineral Resource, as defined by the CIM Code, will be done as technical evaluation of the project is progressed.

"Offset drilling" of key drill holes in the Coles Hill North and Coles Hill South uranium deposits will be required to confirm the validity of the historical drill results from the Marline Oil drilling program.

 

Only a limited drilling program would be required to verify the Tony M resources under the JORC Code.

Daneros: Additional work required to evaluate, confirm, and upgrade the historical Mineral Resources at Daneros would by rotary and core drilling to validate historical drilling information, and infill rotary and core drilling to test potential extensions to known mineralized zones, and underground long hole drilling.
Dieter Lake: The competent person of the independent geological consulting firm that IsoEnergy engaged in 2025 to update the Dieter Lake historical foreign resource estimate to current NI43-101 and CIM standards recommended that historic drill hole data verification will be required - including a visit to the property to verify drill hole locations and carry out verification sampling. The property visit was done in July 2025. Verification samples were collected but helicopter issues prevented conformation of drill hole collar locations from being completed. The consultant's report is pending. There is no present intention to report the estimate in accordance with the JORC Code (2012) edition, as IsoEnergy is not presently required to comply with this reporting code.
Sage Plain: Historic resources at the Sage Plain project could be advanced to "current" status under the CIM Code through additional rotary and core drilling programs. Any future Mineral Reserve and Mineral Resource estimates of IsoEnergy Limited will be prepared in accordance with the then-prevailing Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum Code and the context of Canadian National Instrument NI 43- 101.

    Matoush: An evaluation of the work required to verify the historical, foreign mineral resource estimates as Mineral Resources or Ore Reserves in accordance with JORC 92012) code has not been done.
Hurricane: An evaluation of the work required to verify the foreign mineral resource estimates as Mineral Resources or Ore Reserves in accordance with JORC (2012) code has not been done.
5.12.8 The proposed timing of any evaluation and/or exploration work that the entity intends to undertake and a comment on how the entity intends to fund that work. Milo: Further drilling is planned to extend the resource. The entity can fund that work from existing capital. Initial Reverse Circulation drill program of 1,000m being contemplated for Q2 2026.
Ben Lomond: Not presently planned.
Coles Hill: Drilling to confirm the historical drill results is yet to be planned but will be funded from existing sources.
Tony M: Current work at the Tony M project relates to assessment of technical topics that may have a bearing on future development and operation of the Tony M mine. Such a work program has not been scheduled. This work is being funded through IsoEnergy’s current budget.
Daneros: A confirmation drilling program at the Daneros project has not yet been scheduled. Future work at the Daneros project would be funded by IsoEnergy’s existing resources.
Deiter Lake: IsoEnergy has engaged an independent geological consulting firm to update the historical Mineral Resource estimate to current NI43-101 and CIM standards. It is anticipated their report will be received by December 31, 2025 but until their evaluation of historical drill hole data is complete it is uncertain whether the Mineral Resource estimate will be received in 2025.
Sage Plain: Exploration and confirmation drilling for the Sage Plain project has not yet been scheduled. Future activities at the Sage Plain project will be funded through IsoEnergy’s existing resources.
Matoush:  There is no present intention to report the estimate in accordance with the JORC Code (2012) edition, as IsoEnergy is not presently required to comply with this reporting code.
Hurricane:  There is no present intention to report the estimate in accordance with the JORC Code (2012) edition, as IsoEnergy is not presently required to comply with this reporting code.

Scheme

(a)all Scheme Shares being transferred to IsoEnergy; and

 

(b)in exchange, each Scheme Participant receiving the Scheme Consideration for each Scheme Share held by that Scheme Participant at the Record Date.

 

26

 

 

Provision of Scheme Consideration

(b)provide to the Scheme Participant the Scheme Consideration for each Scheme Share held by the Scheme Participant at the Record Date,

 

subject to and in accordance with the terms of the Scheme and this deed.

Ineligible Foreign Securityholders and Non-Electing Small Securityholders

 

4.4IsoEnergy will allow Small Securityholders to elect, by providing an Opt-in Notice to the Toro Registry on or before the Record Date, to receive New IsoEnergy Shares as Scheme Consideration.

(ii)allot and issue to the Scheme Participants the New IsoEnergy Shares in accordance with the Scheme and Deed Poll on terms such that, upon their issue, each New IsoEnergy Share will be validly issued, fully paid, free from any Encumbrance (except for any lien arising under IsoEnergy's constitution or equivalent constating document) and rank equally in all respects with existing IsoEnergy Shares on issue at the Implementation Date; and

 

(b)the New IsoEnergy Shares issued as Scheme Consideration will be entitled to participate in and receive any dividends or distribution of capital paid and any other entitlements accruing in respect of IsoEnergy Shares on and after the Implementation Date.

 

27

(b)prior to the Second Court Date, the Court will be advised that IsoEnergy intends to rely on the exemption provided by Section 3(a)(10) of the U.S. Securities Act with respect to the issuance and exchange of all Scheme Consideration pursuant to the Scheme based on the Court’s approval of the Scheme;

 

(c)the Court will be required to satisfy itself as to the substantive and procedural fairness of the terms and conditions of the Scheme to the Scheme Participants entitled to receive Scheme Consideration pursuant to the Scheme, and the orders approving the Scheme, or the reasons for judgement in respect of the same, shall expressly state that the terms and conditions of the Scheme are approved by the Court as being fair, substantively and procedurally, to such Scheme Participants;

 

(d)Toro will ensure that Scheme Participants entitled to receive Scheme Consideration pursuant to the Scheme will, in a manner consistent with orders of the Court, be given notice advising them of their right to attend the hearing of the Court to give approval of the Scheme and providing them with information necessary for them to exercise that right;

 

(e)each Scheme Participant will have the right to appear before the Court at the hearing of the Court to give approval of the Scheme under section 411(4) of the Corporations Act so long as they enter an appearance within a reasonable time; and

 

(f)Toro shall request that the Court orders approving the Scheme, or the reasons for judgment in respect of the same, under section 411(4) of the Corporations Act shall include a statement substantially to the following effect:

 

“This Order or reasons will serve as the basis of a claim to an exemption, pursuant to Section 3(a)(10) of the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), from the registration requirements of the Act in connection with the issuance and exchange of Scheme Consideration pursuant to the Scheme”.

(b)IsoEnergy has provided, and is responsible for, the IsoEnergy Information, and that none of Toro and its officers and employees assumes any responsibility for the accuracy or completeness of the IsoEnergy Information,

 

except that in relation to the pro forma financial information relating to the Merged Group contained in the Scheme Booklet:

 

(c)Toro has provided, and is responsible for, the financial information relating to the Toro Group included in the Merged Group Information, or upon which such information is based; and

5.7Toro must allow, and not oppose, any application by IsoEnergy for leave of the Court to be represented, or separate representation of IsoEnergy by counsel, at any Court hearings in relation to the Scheme.

Scheme Voted Down Because of Headcount Test

 

5.12If the Scheme Resolution is not passed by reason only of the non-satisfaction of the Headcount Test, and either party, acting reasonably and in good faith, considers that there are grounds on which an application could be made to the Court under section 411(4)(a)(ii)(A) of the Corporations Act for an order to disregard the Headcount Test, that party may give notice to the other within three Business Days after the Scheme Meeting setting out those grounds and if such notice is given:

36

 

 

(b)the cost of the application for the order is to be borne equally between the parties.

 

5.13If the Court makes the orders, the Condition in 3.1 is deemed to be satisfied for all purposes.

5.14Between the date of this deed and the earlier of the Implementation Date and the date this deed is terminated, Toro must, and must cause each member of the Toro Group, to promptly provide to IsoEnergy and its Representatives with reasonable access to Toro’s Representatives and documents, records, and other information reasonably requested by IsoEnergy or its Representatives, which IsoEnergy reasonably requires for the purposes of:

(b)result in any member of the Toro breaching any applicable law or requirement of any Government Agency, Authorisation, Regulatory Approval, contract, deed or confidentiality obligation; or

 

(c)result in a waiver or loss of legal professional privilege,

 

provided that, for avoidance of any doubt, nothing in this clause 5.15 shall in any way limit or override Toro’s obligations under clause 10.

Change to recommendation or voting intentions

 

6.2Toro must use its best endeavours to ensure that no Independent Toro Director adversely changes, qualifies or withdraws the recommendation referred to in clause 6.1(a) or the intention statement referred to in clause 6.1(b) unless:

(a)(no shop)

 

(i)solicit, initiate or invite any inquiry, expression of interest, offer, proposal, negotiation or discussion by any Third Party in relation to, or which would reasonably be expected to encourage or lead to the making of, or with a view to obtaining, an actual, proposed or potential Competing Proposal, or encourage, induce, assist, announce an intention or procure a person to do any of those things on its behalf; or

Exception

 

10.4The restrictions in clause 10.3(b) do not apply to the extent that they restrict Toro or the Toro IBC, from taking or refusing to take any action with respect to a bona fide Competing Proposal if the Toro IBC has determined in good faith:

 

(a)after consultation with its independent external legal and financial advisors that that the Competing Proposal is, or could reasonably be expected to lead to, a Superior Proposal; and

 

(b)after consultation with its independent external legal and financial advisers, that failing to respond to such Competing Proposal would be likely to constitute a breach of the fiduciary duties or statutory obligations of any member of the Toro Board.

 

Notice of approach

 

10.5During the Exclusivity Period, Toro must promptly (and in any event within 24 hours) notify IsoEnergy if it, any other member of the Toro Group or any of their Representatives, has received or becomes aware of:

 

(a)any approach, inquiry or proposal made to, and any attempt or any intention on the part of any person to initiate or continue any negotiations or discussions with respect to, or that could reasonably be expected to lead to, an actual, proposed or potential Competing Proposal, whether unsolicited or otherwise; or

47

 

 

whether direct or indirect, solicited or unsolicited, and in writing or otherwise.

 

10.6A notice given under clause 10.5 must, to the extent known by Toro, disclose:

 

(a)the identity of the person who made the relevant approach or request; and

 

(b)details of all the material terms and conditions of the Competing Proposal including, the amount and form of consideration to be offered, the source of any cash component of the consideration, the conditions to which it is subject, the proposed timetable, and any break fee arrangements.

 

10.7During the Exclusivity Period, Toro must as soon as reasonably practicable (but in any event within 24 hours) notify IsoEnergy in writing if Toro or any of its Representatives receives or becomes aware of any material development in relation to:

 

(a)any actual, proposed or potential Competing Proposal; and/or

 

(b)any information which was previously notified to IsoEnergy under clause 10.6.

 

Matching rights

 

10.8Without limiting clause 10.3, during the Exclusivity Period:

 

(a)Toro must not, and must ensure its Representatives do not, indirectly or directly, enter into any agreement, arrangement or understanding (whether or not in writing) under which Toro or any member of the Toro Group agrees to implement or otherwise give effect to any actual, proposed or potential Competing Proposal (provided that this does not prevent Toro or any member of the Toro Group from entering into a confidentiality agreement for the purpose of protecting the confidentiality of Toro non-public information provided or proposed to be to a Third Party in relation to a Competing Proposal in relation to Toro); and

 

(b)Toro must use best endeavours to ensure that no Independent Toro Director in response to a Competing Proposal:

 

(i)withdraws, adversely qualifies or changes his or her recommendation set out in clause 6.1;

 

(ii)publicly recommends, or otherwise publicly supports, any actual, proposed or potential Competing Proposal; or

 

(iii)makes a public statement indicating that they no longer support the Transaction,

 

unless:

 

(c)Toro has notified IsoEnergy of the material terms of the Competing Proposal (including, the identity of the person or persons who made such approach, enquiry, expression of interest, offer or proposal, the amount and form of consideration to be offered, the source of any cash component of the consideration, the conditions to which it is subject, the proposed timetable and any break fee arrangements);

 

(d)the Toro IBC has made the determinations under clauses 10.4(a) and 10.4(b) and notified IsoEnergy in writing that the determinations have been made in relation to the Competing Proposal and of the reasons for the Toro IBC’s determination that such Competing Proposal is, or could reasonably be expected to become or lead to, a Superior Proposal (including the specific terms of such Competing Proposal that the Toro IBC consider would, if completed substantially in accordance with its terms, be reasonably likely to be more favourable to Toro Shareholders (as a whole) than the Scheme). To avoid doubt, nothing under this clause 10.8(d) obliges Toro to provide IsoEnergy with the gist, substance or otherwise of legal advice provided to Toro by its external independent legal advisers in connection with the Toro IBC’s determination;

 

48

 

 

(e)Toro has given IsoEnergy at least until 11:59pm on the fifth Business Day after the information referred to in clauses 10.8(c) to 10.8(d) (inclusive) was provided to IsoEnergy (the Matching Rights Period) to announce or formally provide to Toro a matching, equivalent or superior proposal or other counter-proposal to the terms of such Competing Proposal (Counter Proposal); and

 

(f)the Matching Rights Period has expired and either:

 

(i)IsoEnergy has not provided a Counter Proposal to Toro; or

 

(ii)IsoEnergy has provided a Counter Proposal to Toro and the Toro IBC, acting in good faith, has determined that the Counter Proposal would not produce an equivalent or superior outcome for Toro Shareholders (other than Excluded Shareholders) (as a whole) as compared to the outcome that would be provided by such Competing Proposal, taking into account all respective terms and conditions and other aspects of such Counter Proposal (including the price, value and form of consideration, funding, proposed timing, any condition precedent and other matters affecting the probability of the Counter Proposal being completed compared to the Competing Proposal) and such Competing Proposal.

 

10.9If during the Matching Rights Period IsoEnergy makes a Counter Proposal:

 

(a)Toro must procure that the Toro IBC promptly considers and determines as soon as reasonably practical (and in any event, within two (2) Business Days of receiving the Counter Proposal), in good faith, after consultation with its financial advisers and after receiving legal advice from its independent external legal advisers, whether such Counter Proposal would (or would reasonably be expected to) provide an equivalent or superior outcome for Toro Shareholders (other than Excluded Shareholders) (as a whole) as compared to the outcome that would be provided by such Competing Proposal, taking into account all respective terms and conditions and other aspects of such Counter Proposal (including the price, value and form of consideration, funding, proposed timing, any condition precedent and other matters affecting the probability of the Counter Proposal being completed compared to the Competing Proposal) and such Competing Proposal; and

 

(b)promptly, and in any event within 24 hours after making the determination in clause 10.9(a), delivers to IsoEnergy a notice in writing setting out such determination and the reasons for such determination.

 

10.10In the event that Toro has made a determination in accordance with clause 10.9(a) that such Counter Proposal would provide an equivalent or superior outcome for Toro Shareholders (other than Excluded Shareholders) (as a whole) as compared to the outcome that would be provided by such Competing Proposal:

 

(a)Toro and IsoEnergy must use their best endeavours to agree all amendments to this deed (and, if applicable, the Scheme and the Deed Poll) which are necessary to implement such Counter Proposal, in each case as soon as reasonably practicable and for a period of not more than five (5) Business Days after Toro delivers the notice under clause 10.9(b) to IsoEnergy; and

 

(b)Toro must use best endeavours to procure each Independent Toro Director recommends (unanimously with all the other Independent Toro Directors) such Counter Proposal to Toro Shareholders (other than Excluded Shareholders) and does not recommend such Competing Proposal to Toro Shareholders.

 

49

 

 

10.11Toro acknowledges and agrees that:

 

(a)each new Competing Proposal or successive material variation or modification of a Competing Proposal will constitute a new Competing Proposal for the purposes of clauses 10.8 to 10.11 (inclusive); and

 

(b)the process set out in clauses 10.8 to 10.11 (inclusive) must again be followed in respect of each new Competing Proposal or successive material variation or modification of a Competing Proposal prior to:

 

(i)any Independent Toro Director taking any of the actions referred to in clauses 10.8(b)(i), 10.8(b)(ii) or 10.8(b)(iii); or

 

(ii)Toro or any of its Representatives entering into any agreement, arrangement or understanding or otherwise becoming obliged referred to in clause 10.8(a).

 

10.12A public statement by Toro, the Toro IBC or any Toro Director to the effect that:

 

(a)the Toro IBC is considering whether a Competing Proposal is a Superior Proposal; or

 

(b)the Toro IBC has determined that at Competing Proposal is a Superior Proposal and has commenced the matching rights process in clause 10.8; or

 

(c)that Shareholders should take no action pending completion of the Toro IBC’s consideration of whether a Competing Proposal is a Superior Proposal, or pending completion of the matching rights process in clause 10.8,

 

does not of itself:

 

(d)constitute any change, withdrawal, modification or qualification of the recommendation by the Toro IBC or any endorsement or recommendation of the Competing Proposal;

 

(e)contravene this deed;

 

(f)give rise to an obligation to pay the Break Fee; or

 

(g)give rise to a termination right.

 

Ordinary course actions

 

10.13Nothing in this clause 10 prevents a party from:

 

(a)providing information required to be provided by law, any Government Agency, any court of competent jurisdiction, or the ASX Listing Rules or TSX Listing Rules; or

 

(b)making presentations to, and responding to bona fide enquiries from, stockbrokers, portfolio investors and equity market analysts in the ordinary course in relation to the Scheme or business generally,

 

provided that any such activity performed under this clause 10.13 is not undertaken with any objective (directly or indirectly) of soliciting, inviting, initiating or encouraging a Competing Proposal or a potential Competing Proposal.

 

50

 

 

Compliance with law

 

10.14If it is finally determined by a court or the Takeovers Panel that the agreement by the parties under this clause 10 or any part of it:

 

(a)constituted, or constitutes, or would constitute, a breach of the fiduciary or statutory duties of the members of the Toro Board;

 

(b)constituted, or constitutes, or would constitute, ‘unacceptable circumstances’ within the meaning of the Corporations Act, in the absence of a written undertaking pursuant to section 201A of the Australian Securities and Investments Commission Act 2001 (Cth) to modify this clause 10; or

 

(c)was, or is, or would be unlawful for any other reason,

 

then, to that extent (and only to that extent) Toro will not be obliged to comply with that provision of this clause 10. The parties must amend this clause 10 to the extent required to give effect to the requirements of ASIC, the Court or the Takeovers Panel, as the case may be, and in the circumstances referred to in clause 10.14(b) must give the required undertakings.

 

10.15The parties must not make or cause or permit to be made on their behalf, any application to a court or the Takeovers Panel for or in relation to a determination referred to in clause 10.14.

11.3The Toro IBC confirms that it has received external legal advice in relation to this clause 11.

 

Circumstances where Break Fee payable

 

11.4Subject to clauses 11.5 to 11.12 Toro must pay the Break Fee to IsoEnergy if:

unless:

 

(iii)the Independent Expert concludes in the Independent Expert’s Report, that the Scheme is not in the best interests of Shareholders (other than Excluded Shareholders) (other than where the conclusion is contributed to by the existence of a Competing Proposal in relation to Toro);

 

(iv)the Independent Toro Director is permitted to do so under clause 6.2(f); or

 

(v)Toro is entitled to terminate this deed pursuant to clause 13.2(a) or 13.2(c) and has given the appropriate termination notice to IsoEnergy.

Break fee not payable

 

11.5Notwithstanding anything else in this deed, the Break Fee is not payable by Toro to IsoEnergy if the Scheme becomes Effective or IsoEnergy (either alone or in aggregate with its Associates) otherwise acquires control of more than 50% Toro Shares. In such circumstances, if the Break Fee has been paid in whole or part by Toro to IsoEnergy, it must be refunded by IsoEnergy to Toro within ten Business Days.

 

Payment of Break Fee

 

11.6If the Break Fee becomes payable under this deed, Toro must pay it without withholding or set-off within ten Business Days after receipt of a written demand from IsoEnergy.

 

11.7The Break Fee is payable by Toro to IsoEnergy only once and, if actually paid to IsoEnergy, IsoEnergy cannot make any Claim against Toro for any further payment of the Break Fee.

 

11.8Notwithstanding any other provision of this deed, but subject to clause 11.9:

 

(a)the maximum aggregate liability of Toro to IsoEnergy under or in connection with this deed, the Transaction or the Scheme, including in respect of any breach of this deed will be the amount of the Break Fee;

 

52

 

 

(b)a payment by Toro of the Break Fee in accordance with this clause 11 represents the sole and absolute liability of Toro to IsoEnergy under or in connection with this deed, the Transaction or the Scheme and no further damages, fees, expenses or reimbursements of any kind will be payable by Toro to IsoEnergy in connection with this deed, the Transaction or the Scheme; and

 

(c)the amount of the Break Fee payable to IsoEnergy under this clause 11 shall be reduced by the amount of any loss or damage recovered by IsoEnergy in relation to a breach of any other clause of this deed (Recovered Amount) and to the extent the Break Fee has been paid by Toro to IsoEnergy without being reduced by the Recovered Amount, IsoEnergy must promptly refund to Toro the Recovered Amount.

 

11.9Clause 11.8 does not limit the liability of Toro under or in connection with this deed in respect of any fraud or intentional or wilful breach of this deed by Toro, or any right which IsoEnergy may have to specific performance, or declaratory or injunctive relief as a remedy for a breach or threatened breach of this deed or the Scheme by Toro.

 

Amendments to Break Fee

 

11.10This clause 11 does not impose an obligation on Toro to pay the Break Fee to the extent that the obligation:

 

(a)is declared by the Takeovers Panel to constitute ‘unacceptable circumstances’, in the absence of a written undertaking pursuant to section 201A of the Australian Securities and Investments Commission Act 2001 (Cth); or

 

(b)is determined to be unenforceable or unlawful by a court of competent jurisdiction,

(e)IsoEnergy and Toro agree in writing not to appeal or seek review of the decision to impose that requirement.

12.6The Reverse Break Fee is payable by IsoEnergy to Toro only once and, if actually paid to Toro, Toro cannot make any Claim against IsoEnergy for any further payment of the Reverse Break Fee.

 

12.7Notwithstanding any other provision of this deed, but subject to clauses 12.8 and 12.11:

 

(a)the maximum aggregate liability of IsoEnergy to Toro under or in connection with this deed, the Transaction or the Scheme including in respect of any breach of this deed will be the amount of the Reverse Break Fee;

 

(b)a payment by IsoEnergy of the Reverse Break Fee in accordance with this clause 12 represents the sole and absolute liability of IsoEnergy to Toro under or in connection with this deed, the Transaction or the Scheme and no further damages, fees, expenses or reimbursements of any kind will be payable by IsoEnergy to Toro in connection with this deed; and

 

54

 

 

(c)the amount of the Reverse Break Fee payable to Toro under this clause 12 shall be reduced by the amount of any Loss or damage recovered by Toro in relation to a breach of any other clause of this deed (Recovered Amount) and to the extent the Reverse Break Fee has been paid by IsoEnergy to Toro without being reduced by the Recovered Amount, Toro must promptly refund to IsoEnergy the Recovered Amount.

 

12.8Clause 12.7 does not limit the liability of IsoEnergy under or in connection with this deed in respect of any fraud by IsoEnergy or intentional or wilful breach of this deed by IsoEnergy or any right which Toro may have to specific performance, or declaratory or injunctive relief as a remedy for a breach or threatened breach of this deed, the Deed Poll or the Scheme by IsoEnergy.

 

Amendments to Reverse Break Fee

 

12.9This clause 12 does not impose an obligation on IsoEnergy to pay the Reverse Break Fee to the extent that the obligation:

 

(a)is declared by the Takeovers Panel to constitute ‘unacceptable circumstances’, in the absence of a written undertaking pursuant to section 201A of the Australian Securities and Investments Commission Act 2001 (Cth); or

 

(b)is determined to be unenforceable or unlawful by a court of competent jurisdiction,

 

and Toro must refund to IsoEnergy within 5 Business Days any amount in excess of its obligation under this clause 12 that IsoEnergy has already paid if such a declaration or determination is made (unless otherwise required by the Takeovers Panel or the court). The parties must amend this clause 12 to the extent required to give effect to the requirements of ASIC, the Court or the Takeovers Panel, as the case may be, and in the circumstances referred to in clause 12.9(a) must give the required undertakings. For the avoidance of doubt, any part of the Reverse Break Fee that would not constitute unacceptable circumstances or that is not unenforceable or unlawful (as applicable) must be paid by IsoEnergy.

 

12.10The parties must not make or cause to be made, any application to the Takeovers Panel or a court for or in relation to a declaration or determination referred to in clause 12.9.

 

Claims under Deed Poll

 

12.11Nothing in this clause 12 or otherwise in this deed will limit IsoEnergy’s liability under or in connection with a breach of clauses 4.2 or 4.6 or the Deed Poll.

15Confidentiality

 

15.1The parties acknowledge and agree that the obligations in the confidentiality deed between IsoEnergy and Toro dated 22 April 2024 remain in full force and effect, provided that this deed prevails to the extent of any inconsistency.

 

16Goods and Services Tax

 

16.1Except as otherwise expressly provided, any consideration or amount payable under this deed, including any non-monetary consideration (as reduced in accordance with clause 16.4 if required) (Consideration) is exclusive of GST.

 

16.2If GST is or becomes payable on a Supply made under or in connection with this deed, an additional amount (Additional Amount) is payable by the party providing consideration for the Supply (Recipient) equal to the amount of GST payable on that Supply. Subject to prior receipt of a Tax Invoice, the Additional Amount is payable at the same time that the other consideration for the Supply is provided. If a valid Tax Invoice is not received before the consideration for the Supply is provided, the Additional Amount is payable upon receipt of a valid Tax Invoice. This clause does not apply to the extent that the consideration for the Supply is expressly stated to be GST inclusive.

 

16.3If for any (including the occurrence of an Adjustment Event) the amount of GST payable on a Supply (taking into account any Decreasing or Increasing Adjustments in relation to the Supply) varies from the Additional Amount payable by the Recipient under clause 16.2:

(b)The refund, credit or further amount (as the case may be) will be calculated by the Supplier in accordance with the GST Law; and

 

(c)The Supplier must notify the Recipient of the refund, credit or further amount within 14 days after becoming aware of the variation to the amount of GST payable. Any refund or credit must accompany such notification or the Recipient must pay any further amount within 7 days after receiving such notification, as appropriate. If there is an Adjustment Event in relation to the Supply, the requirement for the Supplier to notify the Recipient will be satisfied by the Supplier issuing to the Recipient an Adjustment Note within 14 days after becoming aware of the Adjustment Event.

 

16.4Despite any other provision of this deed, if any amount payable under or in connection with this deed (whether by way or reimbursement or otherwise) is calculated by reference to an amount incurred by a party, whether by way of cost, expense, outlay, disbursement or otherwise (Amount Incurred), the amount payable must be reduced by the amount of any Input Tax Credit to which that party is entitled in respect of that Amount Incurred.

 

16.5Any reference in this clause to an Input Tax Credit to which a party is entitled include an Input Tax Credit arising from a Creditable Acquisition by that party but to which the Representative Member of a GST Group of which the party is a member is entitled.

18Withholding Tax

 

18.1In respect of the application of the foreign resident capital gains withholding tax provisions in Subdivision 14-D of the TAA, if IsoEnergy determines (acting reasonably) that it is required to by law or it is required to pay an amount to the Commissioner (a CGT Withholding Amount) with respect to the acquisition of the Scheme Share from a Scheme Participant, IsoEnergy will:

 

(a)determine the amount of the CGT Withholding Amount;

 

(b)remit the CGT Withholding Amount to the Commissioner within the time required under Subdivision 14-D of Schedule 1 to the TAA; and

 

(c)have satisfied its obligation to pay the CGT Withholding Amount to the Scheme Participant for the purposes of the Scheme.

 

18.2IsoEnergy agrees that it shall not withhold and remit 15% of the Scheme Consideration to the ATO to the extent that the Scheme Participant provides a declaration (Entity Declaration) to IsoEnergy (and IsoEnergy does not know that any such declaration is false) prior to the Record Date that:

 

(a)their ownership interest in Toro is not an “indirect Australian real property interest” (as defined in the Tax Act); or

 

(b)they are an Australian tax resident.

 

18.3In determining the CGT Withholding Amount to be paid by IsoEnergy to the Commissioner in accordance with clause 18.1, IsoEnergy agrees to calculate the CGT Withholding Amount using the reduced rate specified in a variation notice issued by the Commissioner under section 14-235 of Subdivision 14-D (Variation Notice) to the extent that IsoEnergy is provided a Variation Notice by such Scheme Participant prior to the Record Date.

 

18.4IsoEnergy agrees that it shall not withhold and remit 15% of the Scheme Consideration to the ATO to the extent that the Scheme Participant provides a nil Variation Notice to IsoEnergy prior to the Record Date.

(a)to provide Toro a reasonable opportunity to review the form and content of all materials to be provided to the ATO, and must incorporate Toro’s reasonable comments on those materials, and more generally to take into account Toro’s comments in relation to IsoEnergy’s engagement with the ATO, and provide Toro a reasonable opportunity to participate in any discussions and correspondence between IsoEnergy and the ATO in connection with the application of Subdivision 14-D or other withholding obligation to the Scheme;

 

60

 

 

(b)to take all actions as Toro considers necessary (acting reasonably) or desirable to ensure that, where possible, Variation Notices or Entity Declarations are obtained from relevant Toro Shareholders; and

  

(c)not to contact any Toro Shareholders in connection with the application of Subdivision 14-D or other withholding obligation to the Scheme without Toro’s prior written consent.

4Scheme Consideration

 

Entitlement to Scheme Consideration

 

4.1Subject to the terms of this Scheme, on the Implementation Date, in consideration for the transfer to IsoEnergy/BidCo of the Scheme Shares, each Scheme Participant will be entitled to receive the Scheme Consideration in exchange for each of the Scheme Shares held by the Scheme Participant at the Record Date, in accordance with the terms of this Scheme.

 

Provision of New IsoEnergy Shares as Scheme Consideration

 

4.2Subject to the terms of this Scheme, IsoEnergy must:

 

(a)on or before the Implementation Date, issue to each Scheme Participant who is not an Ineligible Foreign Shareholder or Non-electing Small Shareholder such number of New IsoEnergy Shares as that Scheme Participant is entitled to receive under this Scheme and procure that the name and address of each Scheme Participant is entered in the IsoEnergy Register in respect of those New IsoEnergy Shares (using the same holding name, address and other details as are set out in the Register as at the Record Date for the Scheme Participant); and

 

(b)on or before the date that is 10 Business Days after the Implementation Date, procure that a share certificate or holding statement (or equivalent document) is sent to the Registered Address of each Scheme Participant representing the number of New IsoEnergy Shares issued to the Scheme Participant pursuant to this Scheme,

 

and BidCo must procure that IsoEnergy does so.

 

Ineligible Foreign Shareholders and Non-electing Small Shareholders

 

4.3IsoEnergy will allow Small Shareholders to elect, by providing an Opt-in Notice to the Toro Registry on or before the Record Date, to be treated as a Scheme Participant under the Scheme. A Small Shareholder who does not provide an Opt-in Notice to the Toro Registry on or before the Record Date will be treated as a Non-electing Small Shareholder.

 

 7

 

 

4.4IsoEnergy will be under no obligation to issue, and will not issue, any New IsoEnergy Shares to any Ineligible Foreign Shareholder or Non-electing Small Shareholder, and instead, unless IsoEnergy and Toro otherwise agree, IsoEnergy and BidCo must procure that the New IsoEnergy Shares that each Ineligible Foreign Shareholder and Non-electing Small Shareholder would otherwise be entitled to receive as Scheme Consideration are dealt with in accordance with clauses 4.5 to 4.11.

 

Sale Facility

 

4.5IsoEnergy must appoint a Nominee acceptable to Toro (acting reasonably) (and if required by ASIC, such Nominee is to be approved by ASIC), and on the Implementation Date issue to that Nominee, the New IsoEnergy Shares to which an Ineligible Foreign Shareholder or Non-electing Small Shareholder would otherwise be entitled under the Scheme and Deed Poll.

 

4.6Following the issue of the New IsoEnergy Shares to the Nominee pursuant to clause 4.5, IsoEnergy and BidCo will procure that, as soon as reasonably practicable and in any event not more than 20 Business Days after the Implementation Date, the Nominee:

 

(a)sells all of the New IsoEnergy Shares issued to the Nominee in accordance with clause 4.5 outside the United States of America in such manner, at such price and on such other terms as the Nominee determines in good faith on-market on the TSX (or any other prescribed financial market); and

 

(b)as soon as reasonably practicable and in any event no more than 10 Business Days after settlement of all the sales of New IsoEnergy Shares by the Nominee under clause 4.6(a), remits the proceeds of sale to Toro (after deducting any applicable brokerage, Tax, Duty, currency conversion costs and other selling costs and charges) (Proceeds).

 

4.7Promptly after the last remittance in accordance with clause 4.6(b), Toro will pay or procure the payment to each Ineligible Foreign Shareholder and Non-electing Small Shareholder the proportion of the Proceeds received to which that Ineligible Foreign Shareholder or Non-electing Small Shareholder is entitled, being an amount calculated as follows:

 

A = (B/C) x D

 

Where:

 

A =the portion of the Proceeds to which the Ineligible Foreign Shareholder or Non-electing Small Shareholder is entitled;

 

B =the number of New IsoEnergy Shares issued to the Nominee pursuant to clause 4.5 in respect of that Ineligible Foreign Shareholder or Non-electing Small Shareholder;

 

C =the total number of New IsoEnergy Shares issued to the Nominee pursuant to clause 4.5; and

 

D =the Proceeds.

 

4.8Toro must make, or procure the making of, payment of the amount calculated in accordance with clause 4.7 to an Ineligible Foreign Shareholder or Non-electing Small Shareholder by either (in the absolute discretion of Toro):

 

(a)where the Ineligible Foreign Shareholder or Non-electing Small Shareholder has made a valid election in accordance with the requirements of the Toro Registry to receive payments via electronic funds transfer, paying or procuring the payment of the relevant amount in Australian currency by electronic means to the bank account nominated by the Ineligible Foreign Shareholder or Non-electing Small Shareholder in accordance with the election; or

 

 8

 

 

(b)otherwise (whether or not the Ineligible Foreign Shareholder or Non-electing Small Shareholder, has made an election referred to in clause 4.8(a)) by dispatching, or procuring the dispatch of a cheque for the relevant amount in Australian currency to the Ineligible Foreign Shareholder or Non-electing Small Shareholder by prepaid post to their Registered Address.

 

4.9Payment to an Ineligible Foreign Shareholder or Non-electing Small Shareholder in accordance with clause 4.8 satisfies in full the Ineligible Foreign Shareholder’s or Non-electing Small Shareholder’s right to the Scheme Consideration.

 

4.10None of IsoEnergy, BidCo or Toro or the Nominee gives any assurance as to the price that will be achieved for the sale of New IsoEnergy Shares described in clause 4.6.

 

4.11Each Ineligible Foreign Shareholder and Non-electing Small Shareholder appoints Toro as its agent to receive on its behalf any financial services guide or other notices (including any updates to those documents) that the Nominee is required to provide to each Ineligible Foreign Shareholder and Non-electing Small Shareholder under the Corporations Act or any other applicable law.

 

4.12If there are any surplus Proceeds following satisfaction by Toro of its obligations under clause 4.7 that surplus may be paid by Toro to IsoEnergy. Any interest on the Proceeds (less bank fees and other charges) will be to IsoEnergy’s account.

 

Fractional entitlements

 

4.13Where the calculation of the aggregate number of New IsoEnergy Shares to be issued to a Scheme Participant as Scheme Consideration would result in the Scheme Participant becoming entitled to a fraction of a New IsoEnergy Share the entitlement will be rounded down to the nearest whole number of New IsoEnergy Shares.

 

Share splitting

 

4.14If IsoEnergy is of the opinion (acting reasonably) that two or more Scheme Participants (each of which holds a number of Scheme Shares that results in a fractional entitlement to New IsoEnergy Shares) have, before the Record Date, been party to a shareholding splitting or division in an attempt to obtain an advantage by reference to the rounding, IsoEnergy may give notice to those Scheme Participants:

 

(a)setting out the names and Registered Addresses of all of them;

 

(b)stating that opinion; and

 

(c)attributing to one of them specifically identified in the notice the Scheme Shares held by all of them,

 

and, after such notice has been given, the Scheme Participant specifically identified in the notice as the deemed holder of all the specified Scheme Shares will, for the purposes of this Scheme and Deed Poll, be taken to hold all of those Scheme Shares and each of the other Scheme Participants whose names and Registered Addresses are set out in the notice will, for the purposes of this Scheme and Deed Poll, be taken to hold no Scheme Shares. IsoEnergy, in complying with the other provisions of this Scheme and the Deed Poll relating to it in respect of the Scheme Participant specifically identified in the notice as the deemed holder of all the specified Scheme Shares, will be taken to have satisfied and discharged its obligations to the other Scheme Participants named in the notice under the terms of this Scheme and the Deed Poll.

Unclaimed monies

 

4.15Toro may cancel a cheque issued under this clause 4 if the cheque:

 

(a)is returned to Toro; or

 

(b)has not been presented for payment within six months after the date on which the cheque was sent.

 

4.16During the period of 12 months commencing on the Implementation Date, on request in writing from a Scheme Participant to Toro or IsoEnergy (or the Toro Registry) (which request may not be made until the date which is 20 Business Days after the Implementation Date), Toro or IsoEnergy must reissue or procure the reissuance of a cheque that was previously cancelled under clause 4.15.

 

4.17The Unclaimed Money Act 1990 (WA) will apply in relation to any portion of the Proceeds which becomes 'unclaimed money' (as defined in section 3(1) of that Act).

 

Status of New IsoEnergy Shares

 

4.18Subject to this Scheme becoming Effective, IsoEnergy must:

 

(a)issue the New IsoEnergy Shares required to be issued by it under this Scheme on terms such that each such New IsoEnergy Share will rank equally in all respects with each existing IsoEnergy Share;

 

(b)ensure that each such New IsoEnergy Share is duly and validly issued in accordance with all applicable laws and IsoEnergy's constating documents, fully paid and non-assessable and free from any Encumbrance; and

 

(c)use all reasonable endeavours to ensure that such New IsoEnergy Shares are listed and posted for trading on the TSX and the NYSE American as promptly as possible following the Implementation Date (or such later date as the TSX and/or NYSE American may require).

 

Orders of a court or Government Agency or requirements of law

 

4.19If written notice is given to Toro (or the Toro Registry) of an order or direction made by a court of competent jurisdiction or by another Government Agency which requires, or Toro determines (acting in good faith after receiving external professional advice) that there is a legal requirement which requires, consideration or amounts to be provided to a third party (either through payment of a sum or the issuance of a security) in respect of Scheme Shares held by a particular Scheme Participant, which would otherwise be payable or required to be issued to that Scheme Participant (including any Ineligible Foreign Shareholder or Non-electing Small Shareholder) in accordance with this clause 4, then Toro shall be entitled to procure that provision of that consideration or amount is made in accordance with that order or direction or legal requirement, and such actions will constitute full discharge of each of Toro and IsoEnergy’s and BidCo’s obligations under this Scheme in respect of the relevant Scheme Consideration.

 

4.20If written notice is given to Toro (or the Toro Registry) of an order or direction made by a court of competent jurisdiction or by another Government Agency that:

 

(a)prevents Toro from providing consideration or an amount to any particular Scheme Participant (including any Ineligible Foreign Shareholder or Non-electing Small Shareholder) in accordance with this clause 4, or Toro determines in good faith, after receiving external professional advice, that the payment or issuance of such consideration or amount may otherwise be prohibited by applicable law, Toro shall be entitled to (as applicable):

 

(i)retain an amount, in Australian currency, equal to the portion of the Proceeds, which the Scheme Participant would otherwise be entitled to receive under this clause 4; and/or

 

 10

 

 

(ii)direct IsoEnergy not to issue, or to issue to a trustee or nominee, such number of New IsoEnergy Shares as that Scheme Participant would otherwise be entitled to under this clause 4,

 

until such time as provision of the consideration or amount in accordance with this clause 4 is permitted by that (or another) order or direction or otherwise by law and such obligations will constitute the full discharge of each of Toro and IsoEnergy’s and BidCo’s obligations under this Scheme in respect of the relevant Scheme Consideration or Proceeds.

 

Joint holders

 

4.21In the case of Scheme Shares held in joint names:

 

(a)the New IsoEnergy Shares to be issued under this Scheme must be issued to and registered in the names of the joint holders;

 

(b)any cheque required or authorised to be sent under this Scheme will be payable to the joint holders and sent to the holder whose name appears first in the Toro Registry; and

 

(c)any other document required to be sent under this Scheme, will be forwarded to either, at the sole discretion of Toro, the holder whose name appears first in the Register at the Record Date or to the joint holders.

 

5Dealings in Toro Shares

 

Recognition of dealings

 

5.1To establish the identity of the Scheme Participants, dealings in Toro Shares and other alterations to the Register will only be recognised if:

 

(a)in the case of dealings of the type to be effected using CHESS, the transferee is registered in the Register as the holder of the relevant Toro Shares on or before the Record Date; and

 

(b)in all other cases, registrable transmission applications or transfers in respect of those dealings, or valid requests in respect of other alterations, are received on or before the Record Date at the place where the Register is kept,

 

and Toro must not accept for registration, nor recognise for any purpose (except a transfer to IsoEnergy/BidCo pursuant to this Scheme and any subsequent transfer by IsoEnergy/BidCo or its successors in title), any transmission application or transfer or other request received after such times, or received prior to such times but not in registrable or actionable form, as appropriate.

 

5.2Toro must register registrable transmission applications or transfers of the Scheme Shares of the kind referred to in clause 5.1(b) before the Record Date provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this clause 5.2 requires Toro to register a transfer that would result in a Shareholder holding a parcel of Toro Shares that is less than a 'marketable parcel' (as that term is defined in the Operating Rules).

 

 11

 

 

Dealings after Record Date

 

5.3If this Scheme becomes Effective, a holder of Scheme Shares (and any person claiming through that holder) must not dispose of or agree to dispose of any Scheme Shares or any interest in them on or after the Record Date otherwise than pursuant to this Scheme, and any attempt to do so will have no effect and Toro shall be entitled to disregard any such disposal.

 

Maintenance of Register

 

5.4For the purpose of determining entitlements to the Scheme Consideration, Toro must maintain the Register in accordance with the provisions of this clause 5 until the Scheme Consideration has been paid to all Scheme Participants. The Register in this form will solely determine entitlements to the Scheme Consideration.

 

Holding statements and Register entries

 

5.5Following the Record Date all statements of holding for Toro Shares (other than statement of holding in favour of IsoEnergy) will cease to have effect as documents of title in respect of those shares and each entry on the Register current at that date (other than entries on the Register in respect of IsoEnergy) will cease to have effect except as evidence of entitlement to the Scheme Consideration in respect of the Toro Shares relating to that entry.

 

Availability of Register

 

5.6As soon as possible on or after the Record Date, and in any event by 5.00pm on the first Business Day after the Record Date, Toro will ensure that details of the names, Registered Addresses and holdings of Toro Shares for each Scheme Participant as shown in the Register are made available to IsoEnergy in the form IsoEnergy reasonably requires.

 

6Quotation of Toro Shares

 

6.1Toro will apply to ASX to suspend trading on the ASX in Toro Shares with effect from the close of trading on the Effective Date.

 

6.2On a date after the Implementation Date to be determined by IsoEnergy, Toro will apply:

7.3Each Scheme Participant is taken to have warranted to Toro, IsoEnergy and BidCo on the Implementation Date that:

 

(a)all of the Scheme Shares of the Scheme Participant (including all rights and entitlements attaching to them as at the Implementation Date) which are transferred under this Scheme will, at the date of transfer to IsoEnergy/BidCo, be fully paid and free from all Encumbrances; and

(b)appoints Toro and each of its directors, officers and secretaries (jointly and each of them severally) as its attorney and agent for the purpose of executing any document or doing or taking any other act necessary, desirable or expedient to give effect to this Scheme and the transactions contemplated by it, including (without limitation) executing the Scheme Transfer,

 

and Toro accepts each such appointment. Toro, as attorney and agent of each Scheme Participant, may sub-delegate its functions, authorities or powers under clause 7.5 to all or any of its directors, officers, secretaries or employees (jointly, severally or jointly and severally).

 

7.6On the Implementation Date, subject to the Scheme becoming Effective immediately upon the provision of the Scheme Consideration by IsoEnergy and BidCo in accordance with clauses 4.2 and 4.4, and until Toro registers IsoEnergy/BidCo as the holder of all Scheme Shares in the Register, each Scheme Participant:

 

(a)is deemed to have appointed IsoEnergy/BidCo as attorney and agent, and directs IsoEnergy/BidCo in each such capacity, to appoint any director, officer, secretary or agent of IsoEnergy/BidCo as sole proxy and, where applicable or appropriate, corporate representative of that Scheme Participant to attend shareholders' meetings, exercise the votes attaching to the Scheme Shares registered in the name of that Scheme Participant and sign any shareholders' resolution or other document;

(a)whether dividends are to be paid by cheque or into a specific account;

 

(b)payments of dividends on Toro Shares; and

 

(c)notices or other communications from Toro (including by email),

 

will be deemed from the Implementation Date (except to the extent determined otherwise by IsoEnergy in its sole discretion), by reason of this Scheme, to be made by the Scheme Participant to IsoEnergy and to be a binding instruction, notification or election to, and accepted by, IsoEnergy in respect of the New IsoEnergy Shares issued to the Scheme Participant until that instruction, notification or election is revoked or amended in writing addressed to IsoEnergy at its registry.

 

 14

 

 

Binding effect of this Scheme

 

7.9This Scheme binds Toro and all of the Scheme Participants (including those who did not attend the Scheme Meeting and those who did not vote, or voted against the Scheme at the Scheme Meeting) and to the extent of any inconsistency, overrides the constitution of Toro.

 

8General

 

Withholding

 

8.1IsoEnergy shall be entitled to deduct or withhold any amounts (including Taxes or Duties) required under applicable law that become due under the Scheme.

 

8.2Subject to clause 8.4, 8.6 and 8.7, if IsoEnergy determines (acting reasonably) that it is required to pay an amount to the Commissioner pursuant to Subdivision 14-D of Schedule 1 to the TAA (a CGT Withholding Amount) with respect to the acquisition of the Scheme Shares from a Scheme Participant:

 

(a)in respect of a Scheme Participant who is not an Ineligible Foreign Shareholder or Non-electing Small Shareholder, IsoEnergy will:

 

(i)determine the amount of the CGT Withholding Amount; and

 

(ii)determine the amount of the New IsoEnergy Shares as is necessary in the reasonable opinion of IsoEnergy to account for the CGT Withholding Amount (taking into account potential fluctuations in share price and an amount necessary to cover costs associated with the share sale facility described in clauses 4.5 to 4.12 (inclusive)) that would otherwise have been issued to a Scheme Participant to be sold via the share sale facility described in clauses 4.5 to 4.12 (inclusive));

 

(b)for all other Scheme Participants, IsoEnergy will determine the amount of the CGT Withholding Amount; and

 

(c)the Nominee will then pay to IsoEnergy the applicable CGT Withholding Amount in respect of each applicable Scheme Participant from the Proceeds, after deducting any applicable brokerage, Duty and other selling costs, currency conversion costs, taxes and charges (reasonably incurred by the Nominee) and IsoEnergy will then pay the CGT Withholding Amount to the Commissioner within the time required under Subdivision 14-D of Schedule 1 to the TAA. Alternatively, where IsoEnergy remits the CGT Withholding Amount to the Commissioner pursuant to Subdivision 14-D of Schedule 1 to the TAA, IsoEnergy will be entitled to retain as reimbursement an amount equal to the CGT Withholding Amount paid to the Commissioner from the Proceeds; and

 

(d)IsoEnergy will be deemed to have satisfied its obligations to pay the CGT Withholding Amount to the Scheme Participant for the purposes of the Scheme.

 

8.3The aggregate sum payable to the Scheme Participants shall not be increased to reflect the deduction and the net aggregate sum payable to those Scheme Participants shall be taken to be in full and final satisfaction of the amounts owing to the Scheme Participants.

 

 15

 

 

8.4IsoEnergy acknowledges and agrees that it shall not pay any amounts to the Commissioner under Subdivision 14-D with respect to a Scheme Participant where it receives an entity declaration from the Scheme Participant prior to the Record Date, where:

 

(a)the entity declaration is made in accordance with the requirements in section 14-225 of Subdivision 14-D for a period of no more than six months and covers the Implementation Date (Entity Declaration); and

 

(b)IsoEnergy does not know or reasonably suspect the Entity Declaration to be false.

 

8.5If IsoEnergy forms the view (acting reasonably) that it knows or suspects that an Entity Declaration it has received is false, and IsoEnergy received the Entity Declaration more than 30 days before the Record Date, IsoEnergy agrees that it shall not pay any amounts to the Commissioner in respect of that Scheme Participant until it has:

 

(a)provided information upon which it relied to form that view to the Scheme Participant who has provided that Entity Declaration no less than 20 days before the Record Date;

 

(b)provided the Scheme Participant by notice in writing the opportunity to review the information provided to it and respond with their views no less than ten (10) days before the Record Date; and

 

(c)reviewed any response from the Scheme Participant and, after having reconsidered its view, still be of the view that it has knowledge or suspicion that the Entity Declaration it has received is false.

 

8.6In determining the CGT Withholding Amount to be paid by IsoEnergy to the Commissioner in accordance with clause 8.2, IsoEnergy agrees to calculate the CGT Withholding Amount using the reduced rate specified in a variation notice issued by the Commissioner under section 14-235 of Subdivision 14-D (Variation Notice) to the extent that IsoEnergy is provided a Variation Notice by such Scheme Participant prior to the Record Date.

 

8.7IsoEnergy agrees that it shall not withhold and remit 15% of the Scheme Consideration to the Commissioner to the extent that the Scheme Participant provides a nil Variation Notice to IsoEnergy prior to the Record Date.

 

8.8Toro agrees that IsoEnergy may approach the Australian Taxation Office (ATO) to obtain clarification as to the application of Subdivision 14-D to the Scheme and will provide all information and assistance that IsoEnergy reasonably requires in making any such approach. IsoEnergy agrees:

 

(a)to provide Toro a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on the form and content of all materials to be provided to the ATO, and more generally to take into account Toro’s reasonable comments in relation to IsoEnergy’s engagement with the ATO, and provide Toro a reasonable opportunity to participate in any discussions and correspondence between IsoEnergy and the ATO in connection with the application of Subdivision 14-D to the Scheme; and

 

(b)subject to clause 8.5, not to contact any Shareholders in connection with the application of Subdivision 14-D or other withholding obligation to the Scheme without Toro’s prior written consent.

 

8.9The parties agree to take all actions that they agree (each acting reasonably) are necessary or desirable to ensure that, where possible, Entity Declarations are obtained from relevant Scheme Participants.

 

 16

 

 

8.10IsoEnergy will use its best endeavours to engage with the ATO and agree a pragmatic approach in order to minimise the number of Scheme Participants required to provide an Entity Declaration to IsoEnergy under Subdivision 14-D of Schedule 1 to the TAA.

 

Duty

 

8.11IsoEnergy must pay any Duty and similar charges and any related interest, fees, fines or penalties payable under Australian law in connection with this Scheme and the Deed Poll, the performance of the Scheme and the Deed Poll and each transaction effected by or made under the Scheme and the Deed Poll, and must indemnify each Scheme Participant against any liability arising out of or in connection with any failure by IsoEnergy to make such payment.

 

Further action

 

8.12Toro must, do all things and execute all documents necessary to give full effect to the Scheme and the transactions contemplated by it and the Scheme Participants consent to Toro doing all such things and executing all such documents and doing all other things necessary or incidental to the implementation of the Scheme.

 

Notices and other documents sent by post

 

8.13If a notice, transfer, transmission, application, direction or other communication referred to in this Scheme is sent by post to Toro, it will not be taken to be received in the ordinary course of post or on a date and time other than the date and time at which it is actually received at Toro's registered office or at the office of the Toro Registry.

 

8.14The accidental omission to give notice of the Scheme Meeting or the non-receipt of such notice by a Shareholder or its auditor will not, unless so ordered by the Court, invalidate the Scheme Meeting or the proceedings of the Scheme Meeting.

 

No liability when acting in good faith

 

8.15Each Scheme Participant agrees that neither Toro nor IsoEnergy nor BidCo nor any director, officer or secretary or employee of any of those companies shall be liable for anything done or omitted to be done in the performance of this Scheme or the Deed Poll in good faith.

 

9Governing Law and Jurisdiction

 

9.1This Scheme is governed by the law applying in Western Australia.

 

9.2The courts having jurisdiction in Western Australia have non-exclusive jurisdiction to settle any dispute arising out of or in connection with this Scheme and each of Toro and each Scheme Participant irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts having jurisdiction in Western Australia.
