June 25, 2007
Dear Securityholder:

     You are invited to attend a special meeting (the "Meeting") of the shareholders and optionholders of Energy Metals Corporation ("EMC" or the "Company") to be held in the Ocean View Suite 1 at the Pan Pacific Vancouver Hotel, 999 Canada Place, Vancouver, British Columbia on Tuesday, July 31, 2007 commencing at 2:00 p.m. (Vancouver time).

     At the Meeting, you will be asked to consider and vote upon a proposed arrangement (the "Arrangement") under which Uranium One Inc., formerly sxr Uranium One Inc. ("Uranium One"), will acquire all of the issued and outstanding common shares of EMC (the "EMC Shares") in consideration for the issuance of 1.15 common shares of Uranium One (the "Uranium One Shares") for each EMC Share and will issue Uranium One options ("Uranium One Options") in exchange for all outstanding EMC options ("EMC Options") with the number of Uranium One Shares issuable upon exercise of the Uranium One Options being equal to 1.15 times the number of EMC Shares issuable upon exercise of the EMC Options. Upon completion of the Arrangement, EMC will be a wholly-owned subsidiary of Uranium One.

     In order to become effective, the Arrangement must be approved by a resolution passed by at least a two-thirds majority of the votes cast by EMC Shareholders and EMC Optionholders (together, the "EMC Securityholders"), voting together as a single class at the Meeting. In addition to EMC Securityholder approval, completion of the Arrangement is also subject to receipt of required regulatory approvals and the approval of the Supreme Court of British Columbia, all of which are described in more detail in the attached Management Information Circular.

     The directors and senior officers of EMC, who as of June 21, 2007 held, in the aggregate, approximately 4.9 percent of the outstanding EMC Shares and 66.8 percent of outstanding EMC Options, have entered into agreements with Uranium One under which they have, in their capacities as shareholders of EMC, agreed to support the Arrangement by, among other things, voting their EMC Shares and EMC Options in favour of the Arrangement.

     After taking into consideration, among other things, the recommendation of a special committee of EMC directors established to review the Arrangement and the fairness opinion of GMP Securities L.P., the EMC board of directors (the "EMC Board") has unanimously concluded that the Arrangement is fair to, and in the best interests of, EMC and the EMC Securityholders and has approved the Arrangement and authorized its submission to the EMC Securityholders and to the Supreme Court of British Columbia for approval. Accordingly, the EMC Board unanimously recommends that the EMC Securityholders vote in favour of the Arrangement.

     The directors of EMC believe that following the Arrangement, Uranium One will be a significant uranium producer and will be well positioned for future growth, with a strong balance sheet and good prospects for the development and expansion of its assets.

     The attached Notice of Meeting and Management Information Circular contain a detailed description of the Arrangement and include certain other information to assist you in considering the matters to be voted upon. You are urged to read this material carefully and, if you require assistance, to consult your financial or professional advisor. As explained more fully in the attached Management Information Circular, in addition to approval by the EMC Securityholders, completion of the Arrangement is subject to certain conditions and receipt of all applicable regulatory approvals, including the approval of the Supreme Court of British Columbia.

     If you are unable to be present in person at the Meeting we encourage you to vote by completing the enclosed form of proxy. Your vote is important regardless of the number of EMC Shares or EMC Options you own. You should specify your choice by marking the box on the enclosed form of proxy and by dating, signing and returning your proxy in the enclosed return envelope addressed to Computershare Investor Services Inc., at its offices at 9th Floor, 100 University Avenue, Toronto, Ontario, M5J 2V1, or by fax to 1-866-249-7775, before 4:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on July 30, 2007. Please do this as soon as possible. Voting by proxy will not prevent you from voting in person if you attend the Meeting and revoke your proxy, but will ensure that your vote will be counted if you are unable to attend. If you are not registered as the holder of your EMC Shares but hold your shares through a broker or other intermediary, you should follow the instructions provided


by your broker or other intermediary to vote your EMC Shares. See the section in the accompanying Management Information Circular entitled "General Proxy Information — Non-Registered Holders" for further information on how to vote your EMC Shares.

     EMC has retained Kingsdale Shareholder Services Inc. ("Kingsdale") to encourage the return of completed proxies and to solicit proxies in favour of the resolution approving the Arrangement. If you have any questions please contact Kingsdale at The Exchange Tower, 130 King Street West, Suite 2950, P.O.

Further contact information with respect to Kingsdale is set forth on the back cover of the Management Information Circular.

     We encourage you to complete and return the enclosed Letter of Transmittal (printed on green paper) together with the certificate(s) representing your EMC Shares to the Depository in the enclosed return envelope.

SUMMARY

     This summary is qualified in its entirety by the more detailed information appearing elsewhere in this Circular, including the Appendices which are incorporated into and form part of this Circular. Terms with initial capital letters in this Summary are defined in the Glossary of Terms immediately following this Summary.

Information Concerning the Meeting

     The Meeting will be held in the Ocean View Suite 1, Pan Pacific Vancouver Hotel, 999 Canada Place, Vancouver, British Columbia at 2:00 p.m. (Vancouver time) on July 31, 2007. The purpose of the Meeting is to consider and vote on the Arrangement Resolution and such other business as may properly come before the Meeting.

     In order to implement the Arrangement, the Arrangement Resolution must be approved, with or without amendment, by at least two-thirds of the votes cast by EMC Shareholders and EMC Optionholders voting together as a class, present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote at the Meeting, including a majority of the votes cast by EMC Shareholders. See "The Arrangement — Required Securityholder Approvals".

The Arrangement

     EMC and Uranium One have agreed, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, to a combination of their businesses to create a senior uranium company with an internationally diversified production base and the potential to become the leading U.S. uranium producer.

     The business combination will be effected by way of a court approved plan of arrangement under the Act. Holders of EMC Shares and EMC Options are being asked to approve the Arrangement by approving the Arrangement Resolution. Under the terms of the Arrangement all holders of EMC Shares will receive 1.15 Uranium One Shares for each EMC Share held, and all holders of EMC Options will receive Uranium One Options in exchange for their EMC Options, with the aggregate number of Uranium One Shares issuable upon exercise of those Uranium One Options being equal to 1.15 times the aggregate number of EMC Shares issuable upon exercise of the EMC Options. It is anticipated that the Effective Date of the Arrangement will be as soon as possible after receipt of all regulatory and court approvals and is expected to be on or about August 10, 2007.

     A copy of the Combination Agreement is incorporated by reference into and forms an integral part of this Circular. EMC Securityholders are encouraged to read the Combination Agreement in its entirety as it is the principal agreement that governs the Arrangement. The Combination Agreement may be found at www.sedar.com. For a summary of the principal provisions of the Combination Agreement, see "The Combination Agreement and Related Agreements".

Recommendation of the EMC Board

     After considering the recommendation of the Special Committee and the fairness opinion of GMP Securities L.P. ("GMP"), the EMC Board has unanimously concluded that the Arrangement is fair to, and in the best interests of, EMC and EMC Securityholders, and unanimously recommends that the EMC Securityholders vote in favour of the Arrangement. See "The Arrangement — Approval and Recommendation of the EMC Board".


Benefits of the Arrangement

     In the course of their evaluation of the Arrangement, the Special Committee and the EMC Board consulted with EMC's senior management, legal counsel and financial advisors, reviewed a significant amount of information in respect of Uranium One, and considered a number of factors including, among others, the following:

 
  • Significant Premium to EMC Securityholders. Uranium One has offered EMC Securityholders a significant premium to the trading price of the EMC Shares. The consideration to be received by EMC Shareholders under the Arrangement represents a premium of approximately 28 percent based on the volume-weighted average price of EMC Shares and the Uranium One Shares on the TSX, in each case for the 20 trading days ended May 17, 2007 (being the day prior to EMC's announcement that it had entered into exclusive negotiations with respect to a potential sale of the Company).

           
     
  • Anticipated Benefits from Owning Shares in the Combined Company.Holding shares in the Combined Company resulting from the Arrangement is expected by the EMC Board to result in a number of benefits to EMC Securityholders. The Combined Company is expected to have the following attributes:

           
     
  • Uranium One becoming a significant uranium company in terms of mineral reserves and resources, geographic diversification of assets, uranium mining technical capabilities, market capitalization, trading liquidity, international shareholder base and financial strength.

           
     
  • A presence in the five largest uranium resource jurisdictions in the world, being Australia, Kazakhstan, Canada, the United States, and South Africa.

           
     
  • Approximately one-third of total resources, including historical resources and Russian P1 resources, in each of the United States, Kazakhstan and South Africa, is expected to provide the foundation for potential production which will be diversified by geography and mining method.

           
     
  • Industry leading capabilities in ISR and conventional mining technologies.

           
     
  • A strong balance sheet to finance development of the asset portfolio, having approximately US$469 million in cash.

           
     
  • Continued Participation by EMC Shareholders in the assets of EMC and participation in the assets of Uranium One.EMC Shareholders, through their ownership of shares of the Combined Company, will continue to participate in any increase in the value of EMC's uranium projects and will also benefit from the assets of Uranium One and the Combined Company. EMC Shareholders will hold approximately 21 percent of the issued Uranium One Shares after completion of the Arrangement.

           
     
  • Continuity at the Board and Management Levels of the Combined Company.The board of directors of the Combined Company will, at the Effective Time, consist of eleven persons, two of whom will be nominees of EMC and nine of whom will be existing directors of Uranium One. All the current officers of Uranium One are expected to remain with the Combined Company following the Arrangement. Subject to final negotiation, Paul Matysek, the current President and CEO of EMC, is expected to be Executive Vice-President, Americas of the Combined Company, and Dennis Stover, the current Chief Operating Officer of Energy Metals Corporation (US), is expected to be Senior Vice-President, Americas of the Combined Company. William Sheriff, the current Vice-President of Corporate Development and Chairman of the EMC Board, will be one of two EMC appointees to the Uranium One Board, and William Lupien will be appointed as a director of Aflease Gold Limited, a JSE listed company of which Uranium One owns approximately 68% of the outstanding shares. See "The Combined Company After The Arrangement — Directors and Officers of the Combined Company".

           
     
  • The EMC Board believes that Uranium One represents a complementary strategic fit for EMC.Combining the assets of EMC with those of Uranium One results in the creation of a uranium company with a globally diversified resource footprint and expertise in conventional mining and ISR operations.

    See "Forward-Looking Statements" and "The Arrangement — Benefits of the Arrangement."


    Fairness Opinion

         In connection with the Arrangement, the Special Committee received a written opinion dated June 3, 2007 from GMP, financial advisor to EMC, which states that, based upon and subject to the various matters described or referred to in the Fairness Opinion and such other factors as GMP considered relevant, the Arrangement is fair, from a financial point of view, to the EMC Shareholders as at June 3, 2007. EMC Securityholders are urged to, and should, read the full text of the Fairness Opinion, which is attached as Appendix "D"to this Circular, for a complete description of the factors considered, the assumptions made and the limitations on the review undertaken by GMP in rendering the Fairness Opinion.

         GMP has consented to the inclusion in this Circular of the Fairness Opinion and the information included herein related to GMP and the Fairness Opinion. The Fairness Opinion addresses only the fairness of the consideration offered to the EMC Shareholders under the Arrangement from a financial point of view and does not constitute a recommendation to any EMC Securityholder as to how to vote at the Meeting.

    Risk Factors

         EMC and Uranium One are publicly-listed companies involved in the mining and mineral exploration industry. There are a number of risks relating to the mining and mineral exploration industry generally and to EMC and Uranium One specifically as well as risks relating to the Arrangement. EMC Securityholders should carefully consider such risk factors.

         See "Risk Factors".

    Non-Solicitation/Superior Proposals

         In the Combination Agreement, EMC has agreed not to, directly or indirectly, participate in any substantive discussions or negotiations with any person regarding an Acquisition Proposal. Nonetheless, the EMC Board is permitted to consider and accept a Superior Proposal under certain conditions. Uranium One is entitled to a five Business Day period within which to exercise a right to match any Superior Proposal. If the Board accepts a Superior Proposal, EMC may be required to pay a Break Fee to Uranium One. See "The Combination Agreement and Related Agreements — Non-Solicitation Covenants of EMC".

    Conditions to the Arrangement Becoming Effective

         Completion of the Arrangement is subject to a number of conditions being fulfilled on or before the Effective Date, including the principal conditions described below.

    Securityholder Approval

         In order to become effective, the Arrangement Resolution must be approved by at least two-thirds of the votes cast by EMC Securityholders voting together as a class, present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote at the Meeting. In addition, the TSX requires that a majority of the votes cast by EMC Shareholders at the Meeting approve the Arrangement Resolution.

         On June 21, 2007, the directors and senior officers of EMC, as a group, beneficially owned, or had voting control or direction over, 4,208,459 EMC Shares and 5,050,500 EMC Options, resulting in their holding an aggregate of approximately 9.9 percent of the number of votes to be cast at the Meeting. Such directors and officers hold in the aggregate approximately 4.9 percent of the outstanding EMC Shares and 66.8 percent of outstanding EMC Options, and have entered into agreements with Uranium One under which they have, in their capacities as shareholders of EMC, agreed to support the Arrangement by, among other things, voting their EMC Shares and EMC Options in favour of the Arrangement at the Meeting.


    Court Approval

         The Arrangement requires Court approval under the Act. In addition to this approval, the Court will be asked for a declaration following a court hearing that the Arrangement is fair to the EMC Securityholders. Prior to the mailing of this Circular, EMC obtained the Interim Order providing for the calling and holding of the Meeting and certain other procedural matters related to the Meeting. Following approval of the Arrangement Resolution by EMC Securityholders at the Meeting, EMC will make application to the Court for the Final Order at 9:45 a.m. (Vancouver time) on August 3, 2007 at the Courthouse, 850 Smithe Street, Vancouver, British Columbia. Stikeman Elliott LLP, counsel to EMC, has advised that, in deciding whether to grant the Final Order, the Court will consider, among other things, the fairness of the Arrangement to EMC Securityholders.

    Regulatory Approval

         The Arrangement is subject to the approval of certain regulatory authorities, including the Commissioner of Competition under the Competition Act and the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States under the 1988 Exon-Florio Amendment to the U.S. Defense Production Act of 1950. The Arrangement is also subject to stock exchange approval of the issuance of the Uranium One Shares to be issued and made issuable pursuant to the Arrangement, and the TSX has given its conditional approval of the listing of such Uranium One Shares.

         See "Regulatory Matters".

    Other Conditions to Closing

         The Combination Agreement provides that the obligations of the parties to complete the Arrangement are subject to the satisfaction, on or before the Effective Date, of certain conditions precedent, each of which may only be waived by the mutual consent of EMC and Uranium One. These conditions include:

      (a)

    holders of no more than 10 percent of the EMC Shares having exercised their Dissent Rights;

         
      (b)

    there cannot be any order made by a court or Government Entity preventing the completion of the Arrangement;

         
      (c)

    the representations and warranties of EMC and Uranium One shall be true and correct in all material respects as of the Effective Date;

         
      (d)

    the Effective Date having occurred on or before November 30, 2007; and

         
      (e)

    all Appropriate Regulatory Approvals having been obtained.

         The Combination Agreement also provides that the respective obligations of EMC and Uranium One to complete the Arrangement are subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain additional conditions precedent, including, during the Pre-Effective Date Period, there having been no change, condition, effect, event or occurrence which, in the reasonable judgment of a party, has or is reasonably likely or expected to have, a Material Adverse Effect on the other party, the Arrangement or the Combined Company which will result from the completion of the Arrangement.

         See "The Combination Agreement and Related Agreements — Conditions to Closing".

    Termination of the Combination Agreement

         EMC and Uranium One may agree in writing to terminate the Combination Agreement and abandon the Arrangement at any time prior to the Effective Time. In addition, either party may terminate the Combination Agreement and abandon the Arrangement at any time prior to the Effective Time if certain specified events occur. See "The Combination Agreement and Related Agreements — Termination".


    Break Fee

         The Combination Agreement provides that EMC will pay to Uranium One a termination fee of $55,000,000 in certain circumstances, including if the Combination Agreement is terminated by EMC in connection with its acceptance of a Superior Proposal. The amount of this termination fee was determined with reference to the market capitalization of EMC on the date of the announcement of the Arrangement and the amount of the termination fee as a percentage of transaction value in similar transactions. See "The Combination Agreement and Related Agreements — Break Fee and Reimbursement of Expenses".

    Certain Canadian Federal Income Tax Considerations

         Shareholders in jurisdictions other than Canada should be aware that the disposition of the EMC Shares and the acquisition of the Uranium One Shares by them as described herein may have tax consequences both in their home jurisdictions and in Canada. Except for the information contained in this Circular under the heading "Certain U.S. Tax Considerations for U.S. EMC Securityholders", the non-Canadian tax consequences for EMC Shareholders who are resident in, or citizens of, jurisdictions other than Canada are not described herein. Accordingly, such EMC Shareholders are urged to consult their own tax advisors.

         EMC Optionholders should be aware that the disposition of EMC Options may have tax consequences both in Canada and elsewhere. EMC Optionholders are referred to the information in the Circular under the heading "Certain Canadian Federal Income Tax Considerations", which contains a general summary of certain Canadian federal income tax considerations in respect of the Arrangement which EMC Optionholders described therein should consider in light of their own particular circumstances. EMC Optionholders who did not receive their EMC Options in respect of their employment with EMC or a Subsidiary of EMC are strongly cautioned that the tax consequences to them of the Arrangement may be materially and adversely different than those described in this Circular. All EMC Optionholders are urged to consult their own tax advisors with respect to the tax consequences to them of the Arrangement.

    EMC Shareholders Resident in Canada

         Generally, an EMC Shareholder who is resident in Canada for the purposes of the Tax Act, who deals at arm's length with Uranium One, who holds EMC Shares as capital property and who exchanges EMC Shares for Uranium One Shares under the Arrangement will, unless the EMC Shareholder chooses to recognize any capital gain or capital loss otherwise arising from such exchange, be deemed to have disposed of the EMC Shares for proceeds of disposition equal to the EMC Shareholder's adjusted cost base in respect of such EMC Shares immediately before the exchange and to have acquired the Uranium One Shares received in exchange therefor at a cost equal to such proceeds of disposition.

    EMC Shareholders Not Resident in Canada

         Generally, an EMC Shareholder who is not resident in Canada for the purposes of the Tax Act will not be subject to tax under the Tax Act in respect of the exchange of their EMC Shares for Uranium One Shares under the Arrangement.

    Certain U.S. Income Tax Considerations

    Residents of the United States

         Generally, the Arrangement should qualify as a tax-free reorganization under U.S. federal income tax rules, with the result that an EMC Shareholder who is a U.S. citizen or resident, or otherwise subject to U.S. federal income taxation, who holds the EMC Shares as capital assets and who exchanges EMC Shares for Uranium One Shares under the Arrangement should not be subject to U.S. federal income taxation as a result of the Arrangement. Notwithstanding this general rule of nontaxability, U.S. EMC Shareholders may be subject to U.S. federal income tax as a result of the Arrangement under the rules of Section 367 or the passive foreign investment company ("PFIC") provisions of the Internal Revenue Code


    (the "Code"). In addition, U.S. EMC Optionholders may be subject to U.S. federal income tax as a result of the Arrangement under the PFIC rules. EMC Securityholders are urged to consult their own tax advisors.

         The foregoing is a brief summary of Canadian and United States federal income tax consequences only. EMC Securityholders should read carefully the information in the Circular under "Certain Canadian Federal Income Tax Considerations" and "Certain U.S. Tax Considerations for U.S. EMC Securityholders" which together qualify the summary set forth above.

All EMC Optionholders are urged to consult their own tax advisors with respect to the tax consequences to them of the Arrangement.

    CAUTIONARY NOTE TO EMC SECURITYHOLDERS IN THE UNITED STATES

         EMC is a company existing under the laws of the Province of British Columbia. Uranium One is a company existing under the federal laws of Canada. The Uranium One Shares to be issued to the EMC Shareholders under the Arrangement will be registered under the U.S. Securities Act pursuant to the Registration Statement. The Uranium One Shares issued to EMC Shareholders who are not affiliates of either company prior to the Effective Time will be freely tradeable in the United States. Under the U.S. Securities Act, an "affiliate" of an issuer is a person that directly, or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, controls, or is controlled by, or is under common control with, such issuer. Usually this includes the directors, executive officers and major shareholders of the issuer. Uranium One Shares issued to affiliates will be subject to certain restrictions on trading under Rule 145(c) and Rule 144 of the U.S. Securities Act. See "Securities Laws Considerations — U.S. Securities Laws". Investors should also note that unlike EMC Shares, Uranium One Shares are not listed for trading on any U.S. exchange or trading market. Accordingly, while Uranium One Shares held by non-affiliates may be freely tradeable and Uranium One Shares held by affiliates may be traded subject to certain restrictions, there is no trading market in the United States for Uranium One Shares at the present time and none is expected to develop in the future. Thus, holders of Uranium One Shares likely will have to trade such shares on the TSX or the JSE. The Uranium One Shares to be issued to holders of EMC Options assumed by Uranium One in the Arrangement will not be included in the Registration Statement. Provided that Uranium One remains a "foreign private issuer" as such term is defined in Regulation S under the U.S. Securities Act, such Uranium One Shares will, if issued outside the United States under Regulation S, be issued free of U.S. Securities Act restrictions except for customary restrictions on affiliates. Otherwise, such Uranium One Shares will be "restricted securities" as defined in Rule 144 under the U.S. Securities Act, and, accordingly, may only be resold in the United States pursuant to registration or an exemption or exclusion from registration under the U.S. Securities Act and certain state securities laws or outside the United States pursuant to an exemption or exclusion from registration, such as that provided by Regulation S under the U.S. Securities Act.

         The solicitation of proxies and the transaction contemplated in this Circular involve securities of a Canadian issuer and are being effected in accordance with Canadian corporate and securities laws. EMC is a "foreign private issuer" as such term is defined under Rule 3b-4 of the U.S. Exchange Act. As a result, despite the fact that EMC has U.S.-based shareholders and EMC files reports under the U.S. Exchange Act, the solicitation of proxies is not subject to the requirements of Section 14(a) of the U.S. Exchange Act, by virtue of Rule 3a12-3 of the U.S. Exchange Act applicable to proxy solicitations by foreign private issuers. Shareholders should be aware that disclosure requirements under Canadian laws may be different from such requirements under the U.S. Exchange Act and U.S. Securities Act. For example, the financial statements included or incorporated by reference herein have been prepared in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles and are subject to auditing and auditor independence standards in Canada, and thus may not be comparable to financial statements of United States companies.

         The enforcement by investors of civil liabilities under U.S. securities laws may be affected adversely by the fact that EMC exists under the laws of the Province of British Columbia and Uranium One exists under the federal laws of Canada, their respective corporate headquarters are located outside the United States, a majority of their respective officers and directors are not citizens or residents of the United States, and, in the case of Uranium One, all or a substantial portion of its assets may be located outside the United States. United States investors may face substantive and procedural barriers to obtaining a judgment against EMC or Uranium One or their respective officers or directors in a Canadian or South African court for violations of U.S. securities laws. Even if such a judgment is obtained, it may be difficult to enforce such judgment against EMC, Uranium One or their respective officers, directors or properties. Finally, liability standards under applicable Canadian and South African laws may differ in material respects from comparable U.S. laws.


         The exchange under the Arrangement of EMC Shares for Uranium One Shares and EMC Options for Uranium One Options may have tax consequences under the laws of the United States. Not all of such consequences for EMC Securityholders that are residents of, or citizens of, or otherwise subject to taxation in the United States are described in this Circular. U.S. EMC Securityholders should be aware that EMC may be and may have been in prior taxable years a "passive foreign investment company" (as defined in U.S. Internal Revenue Code Section 1297) (a "PFIC"), and special U.S. tax rules would apply to U.S. EMC Securityholders who held their EMC Shares during a period when EMC was a PFIC. If U.S. EMC Shareholders or EMC Optionholders fail to provide the Depositary with the information solicited on a Substitute IRS FormW-9, or fail to certify that they are not subject to U.S. backup withholding, the Depositary may be required to withhold U.S. income tax from the payments of Uranium One Shares or Uranium One Options made to U.S. EMC Securityholders (and may be required to sell a portion of such shares or options to fulfill the tax withholding obligation). U.S. EMC Securityholders are solely responsible for determining the tax consequences applicable to their particular circumstances and are urged to consult their tax advisors concerning the Arrangement. No determination has been made as to whether Uranium One or the Combined Company is, or will be, a PFIC.

         THE TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED IN THIS CIRCULAR AND THE SECURITIES ISSUABLE THEREUNDER HAVE NOT BEEN APPROVED OR DISAPPROVED BY ANY SECURITIES REGULATORY AUTHORITY NOR HAS ANY SECURITIES REGULATORY AUTHORITY PASSED UPON THE FAIRNESS OR MERITS OF THIS TRANSACTION OR UPON THE ACCURACY OR ADEQUACY OF THE INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS CIRCULAR. ANY REPRESENTATION TO THE CONTRARY IS A CRIMINAL OFFENCE.

    CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING USE OF MINING TERMS

         This solicitation is being made by a Canadian issuer pursuant to Canadian disclosure requirements, which differ from the requirements applicable to U.S. companies under the U.S. Securities Act and the U.S. Exchange Act. Without limiting the foregoing, this Circular and the documents incorporated by reference herein use the terms "mineral resource," "measured mineral resource", "indicated mineral resource" and "inferred mineral resource", "mineral reserve", "proven mineral reserve" and "probable mineral reserve" as defined in accordance with NI 43-101 under guidelines set out in the CIM Standards on Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves adopted by the CIM Council on December 11, 2005 as amended from time to time. United States readers are cautioned that while the terms "mineral resource," "measured mineral resource", "indicated mineral resource" and "inferred mineral resource" are recognized and required by Canadian regulations, the SEC does not recognize them. Further, "inferred resources" have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence and economic and legal feasibility and it cannot be assumed that all or any part of an inferred mineral resource will ever be upgraded to a higher category. Readers are cautioned not to assume that all or any part of an inferred resource exists or is economically or legally mineable. Mineral resources are not mineral reserves and do not have demonstrated economic viability. Readers should also understand that CIM and SEC standards for mineral "reserves" are substantially different. It is the SEC staff's position that (i) a "final" or "bankable" feasibility study is required to meet the requirements to designate "reserves" under SEC Guide 7, (ii) a historic three-year average price is to be used in any reserve or cash flow analysis to designate reserves, and (iii) to meet the "legal" part of the reserve definition, the primary environmental analysis or document should have been submitted to governmental authorities. The disclosure provided in this Circular and the documents incorporated by reference herein may therefore differ substantially from the disclosures made by U.S. companies subject to SEC disclosure standards.

         Certain of the documents incorporated by reference in this Circular use the term "historical resources". Historical resource estimates do not comply with CIM standards under NI 43-101. Historical resource estimates are based on prior data and reports obtained and prepared by previous operators and certain other information, and should not be relied upon. No qualified person (as defined by NI 43-101) has done sufficient work to classify the historical estimate as current mineral resources or mineral reserves. Neither EMC nor Uranium One has completed the work necessary to verify the classification of the mineral resource estimates. Neither EMC nor Uranium One is treating the historical estimates as current mineral resources or mineral reserves as defined in sections 1.2 and 1.3 of NI 43-101. Properties containing historical resource estimates will require further evaluation. Historical estimated resources referred to herein as Russian P1 resources are derived from third party documents. Although Russian P1 resources do not meet CIM standards for mineral resource and reserve definitions, they are considered relevant because Uranium One's experience with similar types of deposits in Kazakhstan has demonstrated that the P1 resources can be reclassified as inferred resources through additional drilling. However, there is less confidence attributed to a P1 resource since a P1 resource is estimated on the basis of a lower drill density than an inferred resource.


    CURRENCY

         Unless otherwise indicated herein, all references to currency in this Circular are to Canadian dollars. US$ means United States dollars, "R" or "ZAR" means South African rand and "£" means British pounds.

    GENERAL PROXY INFORMATION

    Solicitation of Proxies

         This Circular is furnished in connection with the solicitation of proxies by the management of EMC for use at the Meeting and any adjournments thereof, to be held on July 31, 2007, at the time and place and for the purposes set forth in the accompanying Notice of Meeting. EMC Shareholders are being sent blue proxies and EMC Optionholders are being sent yellow proxies. While it is expected that the solicitation will be primarily by mail, proxies may be solicited personally or by telephone by the directors and regular employees of the Company at nominal cost. The Company has retained Kingsdale Shareholder Services Inc. to assist in the solicitation of proxies and expects to pay Kingsdale approximately $80,000 for its services, plus disbursements. All costs of solicitation by management will be borne by the Company.

    Appointment and Revocation of Proxies

         The individuals named in the accompanying form of proxy (blue for EMC Shareholders and yellow for EMC Optionholders) are the Chairman and the President, respectively, of the Company. AN EMC SECURITYHOLDER WISHING TO APPOINT SOME OTHER PERSON (WHO NEED NOT BE A SHAREHOLDER) TO REPRESENT HIM AT THE MEETING HAS THE RIGHT TO DO SO, EITHER BY STRIKING OUT THE NAMES OF THOSE PERSONS NAMED IN THE ACCOMPANYING FORM OF PROXY AND INSERTING THE DESIRED PERSON'S NAME IN THE BLANK SPACE PROVIDED IN THE FORM OF PROXY OR BY COMPLETING ANOTHER FORM OF PROXY. A proxy will not be valid unless the completed form of proxy is received by Computershare Investor Services Inc. at 9th Floor, 100 University Avenue, Toronto, Ontario, M5J 2Y1, or by fax to 1-866-249-7775, by 4:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on July 30, 2007, or, if the Meeting is adjourned or postponed, by 4:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on the Business Day prior to the date to which the Meeting has been adjourned or postponed.

         A Registered Shareholder or EMC Optionholder who has given a proxy may revoke it by an instrument in writing executed by the securityholder or by his attorney authorized in writing or, where the securityholder is a corporation, by a duly authorized officer or attorney of the corporation, and delivered to the registered office of the Company, 1200 - 750 West Pender Street, Vancouver, BC V6C 2T8, at any time up to and including the last business day preceding the day of the Meeting, or if adjourned, any reconvening thereof, or to the Chairman of the Meeting on the day of the Meeting or, if adjourned, any reconvening thereof or in any other manner provided by law. A revocation of a proxy does not affect any matter on which a vote has been taken prior to the revocation.

    Non-Registered Holders

         Only Registered Shareholders and EMC Optionholders, or duly appointed proxyholders of such persons, are permitted to vote at the Meeting. Most shareholders of the Company are "non-registered" shareholders because the shares they own are not registered in their names but are instead registered in the name of the brokerage firm, bank or trust company through which they purchased the shares. A person is not a registered shareholder (a "Non-Registered Holder") in respect of shares which are held either: (a) in the name of an intermediary (an "Intermediary") that the Non-Registered Holder deals with in respect of the shares (Intermediaries include, among others, banks, trust companies, securities dealers or brokers and trustees or administrators of self-administered RRSP's, RRIF's, RESPs and similar plans); or (b) in the name of a clearing agency (such as The Canadian Depository for Securities Limited ("CDS"), of which the Intermediary is a participant. In accordance with the requirements of National Instrument 54-101 of the Canadian Securities Administrators, the Company has distributed copies of the notice of meeting, this Circular and the proxy (collectively, the "Meeting Materials") to the clearing agencies and Intermediaries for onward distribution to Non-Registered Holders.


         Intermediaries are required to forward the Meeting Materials to Non-Registered Holders unless a Non-Registered Holder has waived the right to receive them.

         Intermediaries will frequently use service companies to forward the Meeting Materials to Non-Registered Holders. Generally, Non-Registered Holders who have not waived the right to receive Meeting Materials will either:

      (a)

    be given a form of proxy which has already been signed by the Intermediary (typically by a facsimile, stamped signature), which is restricted as to the number of shares beneficially owned by the Non-Registered Holder and is to be completed, but not signed, by the Non-Registered Holder and deposited with Computershare Investor Services; or

         
      (b)

    more typically, be given a voting instruction form which is not signed by the Intermediary, and which, when properly completed and signed by the Non-Registered Holder and returned to the Intermediary or its service company, will constitute voting instructions which the Intermediary must follow.

         In either case, the purpose of this procedure is to permit Non-Registered Holders to direct the voting of the shares which they beneficially own. Should a Non-Registered Holder who receives one of the above forms wish to vote at the Meeting in person, the Non-Registered Holder should strike out the names of the management proxyholders named in the form and insert the Non-Registered Holder's name in the blank space provided. Non-Registered Holders should carefully follow the instructions of their Intermediary, including those regarding when and where the proxy or proxy authorization form is to be delivered.

    Voting of Proxies

         EMC SHARES AND EMC OPTIONS REPRESENTED BY PROPERLY EXECUTED PROXIES IN FAVOUR OF PERSONS DESIGNATED IN THE ENCLOSED FORM OF PROXY WILL, WHERE A CHOICE WITH RESPECT TO ANY MATTER TO BE ACTED UPON HAS BEEN SPECIFIED IN THE FORM OF PROXY, BE VOTED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE SPECIFICATION MADE. SUCH SECURITIES WILL BE VOTED IN FAVOUR OF EACH MATTER FOR WHICH NO CHOICE HAS BEEN SPECIFIED BY THE EMC SECURITYHOLDER.

         The enclosed form of proxy (blue for EMC Shareholders and yellow for EMC Optionholders) when properly completed and delivered and not revoked confers discretionary authority upon the person appointed proxy thereunder to vote with respect to amendments or variations of matters identified in the Notice of Meeting, and with respect to other matters which may properly come before the Meeting. In the event that amendments or variations to matters identified in the Notice of Meeting are properly brought before the Meeting or any further or other business is properly brought before the Meeting, it is the intention of the persons designated in the enclosed form of proxy to vote in accordance with their best judgment on such matters or business. At the time of the printing of this Circular, the management of the Company knows of no such amendment, variation or other matter which may be presented to the Meeting.

    Voting Shares and Principal Holders Thereof

         The authorized capital of the Company consists of an unlimited number of common shares without par value. Registered holders of EMC Shares are entitled to receive notice of or to attend and vote at any meetings of the shareholders of the Company. As at the Record Date, there were 85,535,367 EMC Shares issued and outstanding.

         For the purposes of the Meeting, each EMC Shareholder of record at the close of business on the Record Date will be entitled to attend the Meeting in person or appoint a proxy nominee to attend the Meeting and such person will be entitled to vote on a show of hands and, on a poll, will be entitled to one vote for each EMC Share registered in his/her/its name on the list of shareholders, which is available for inspection during the normal business hours at Computershare Investor Services Inc. and at the Meeting.

         As at the Record Date, there were 7,561,817 EMC Options outstanding. For the purposes of the Meeting, each EMC Optionholder whose name is entered on the register of optionholders of EMC at the close of business on the Record Date will be entitled to attend the Meeting in person or appoint a proxy nominee to attend the Meeting and such person will be entitled


    to vote on a show of hands and, on a poll, will be entitled to one vote for each EMC Share such EMC Optionholder would receive upon a valid exercise of EMC Options held by that EMC Optionholder.

         To the knowledge of the directors and senior officers of the Company, there are no persons or companies who beneficially own, directly or indirectly, or exercise control or direction over shares carrying more than 10% of the voting rights attached to all EMC Shares except as follows:

    Name and Address   Number of Shares     Approximate Percentage of Total  
              Issued Shares  
                 
                 
    CDS & Co.(1)   46,284,992     54%  
    Box 1038, Station A, 25 The Esplanade            
    Toronto, Ontario M5W 1G5            
    Cede & Co.(1)   11,716,329     13.7%  
    P.O. Box 222, Bowling Green Station            
    New York, NY 10274            
    Resolute Funds Limited   9,900,000     11.6%  
    3080 Yonge Street, Suite 5000            
    Toronto, ON M4N 3N1            

    (1)

    CDS & Co. and Cede & Co. hold EMC Shares as depositories and therefore, although they are Registered Shareholders, do not have voting authority over the EMC Shares that they hold.

    Information Contained in this Circular Regarding Uranium One

         The information concerning Uranium One contained in this Circular and any documents filed by Uranium One with a Canadian Securities Administrator that are incorporated by reference herein has been taken from or based upon publicly available documents and records on file with Canadian Securities Administrators and other public sources. See the section of this Circular entitled "Information Relating to Uranium One — Incorporation by Reference". Although EMC has no knowledge that would indicate any statements contained therein relating to Uranium One taken from or based upon such documents and records are untrue or incomplete, neither EMC nor any of its officers or directors assumes any responsibility for the accuracy or completeness of the information relating to Uranium One taken from or based upon such documents or records, or for any failure by Uranium One to disclose events that may have occurred or may affect the significance or accuracy of any such information but which are unknown to EMC.

    THE ARRANGEMENT

    Background to the Arrangement

         The provisions of the Combination Agreement are the result of arm's length negotiations among representatives of EMC and Uranium One and their respective legal and financial advisors. The following is a summary of the background to the execution of the Combination Agreement.

    • In March of 2006, during the Prospectors and Developers Association meeting, directors and management from EMC (including William Sheriff, Chairman, Paul Matysek, President and CEO, William Lupien, Director and Dennis Stover, Chief Operating Officer of EMC US), met in person in Toronto with management of Uranium One (including Neal Froneman, President and CEO of Uranium One). These initial discussions centered on the objectives of each company to build a uranium production company, where EMC was focused in the United States and Uranium One had an international strategy. The participants did not discuss any intention to combine businesses.

    • Subsequent to further meetings with Uranium One, the Company had introductory discussions with a number of uranium companies with respect to potential joint ventures and business combination opportunities.

    • In December 2006, a representative of the National Bank of Canada contacted the President of EMC to ascertain EMC's interest in meeting with a number of senior uranium companies that had expressed interest in potential business opportunities with EMC. On December 15, 2006, William Lupien met with Neal Froneman and Chris Sattler in San Francisco to review EMC's and Uranium One's respective progress. Mr. Froneman extended an invitation to EMC management to review Uranium One's operations.

    • In early January 2007, William Lupien and Paul Matysek travelled to Africa to review a number of business opportunities. This trip included a three-day visit to Uranium One's facilities. On January 11, 2007, EMC and Uranium One signed the Confidentiality Agreement to permit the exchange of non-public information respecting each of them. Following the execution of the Confidentiality Agreement, information facilitating the progression of technical, legal and financial due diligence was exchanged.

    • In early February 2007, William Lupien, William Harris, James Watt and William Sheriff attended the Indaba Minerals Conference in Cape Town, South Africa to develop, assess and review business opportunities in Africa. William Sheriff, William Harris and William Lupien took the opportunity to visit Uranium One's operations between February 4 and 6.

    • In March of 2007, a Uranium One technical team that was in the U.S. primarily to review the Shootaring Mill and associated mining properties which it had recently agreed to acquire also took the opportunity to visit several properties of EMC as well as assets and properties of other companies.

    • While EMC had not yet had any serious discussions with Uranium One with respect to a potential business combination, in late April 2007 representatives of Uranium One contacted EMC to invite appropriate representatives to meet to determine if EMC was interested in having serious discussions regarding a potential business combination of the two companies. Based on EMC's desire for growth, and its knowledge of the potential counterparties to such a transaction, management of EMC decided to pursue this opportunity.

    • On May 2 and 3, 2007, directors and management from EMC (consisting of William Sheriff, William Lupien and Paul Matysek) met in person in South Africa with management of Uranium One (including Neal Froneman and Jean Nortier, Executive Vice-President Corporate Affairs of Uranium One) and representatives of BMO Capital Markets. The parties discussed the potential merits of a combination, considered the form and amount of consideration to be paid in a potential business combination, and agreed to further discussions. Mr. Froneman requested that EMC provide Uranium One with exclusivity in negotiations regarding any merger or similar discussions, to which EMC agreed pursuant to an exclusivity agreement.

    • At an EMC Board meeting on May 10, 2007, the EMC Board authorized EMC to engage accounting, financial and legal firms to assist EMC in conducting due diligence in respect of Uranium One and the potential business combination, and discussed potential strategic alternatives and exchange ratios. Also on May 10, 2007, the EMC Board appointed a Special Committee of independent directors, consisting of Messrs. William Lupien (Chair), William Harris and Grayson Hand. The Special Committee was charged with, among other things, the appointment of a financial advisor to provide a fairness opinion. Following consideration of the advice of GMP and information obtained during due diligence, the President and the Special Committee were authorized to continue discussions with Mr. Froneman.

    • On May 10, 2007, the Special Committee engaged GMP as financial advisor.

    • Between May 10, 2007 and June 3, 2007, the parties engaged in negotiations to finalize the commercial terms of the Arrangement and the definitive Combination Agreement.

    • Between May 10, 2007 and June 3, 2007, the Special Committee met by telephone 10 times to receive updates and to direct the negotiation of the terms of the Arrangement.


    • On May 18, 2007, in response to a request from Market Regulation Services Inc., EMC issued a press release in which it indicated that it was in exclusive negotiations with a party regarding the potential acquisition of EMC.

    • On Sunday, June 3, 2007 a final version of the Combination Agreement was agreed upon by EMC and Uranium One, subject to approval of their respective boards.

    • On Sunday, June 3, 2007, the Special Committee met to review the terms of the final Combination Agreement and received financial and legal advice. The Special Committee recommended to the EMC Board that it approve the Combination Agreement.

    • On Sunday, June 3, 2007, the EMC Board met and had the benefit of all material documents relating to the Combination Agreement, as well as the advice of its legal and financial advisors. The Special Committee confirmed its recommendation that the Uranium One offer be approved by the EMC Board. The Chairman then invited GMP to present its fairness opinion, and representatives of GMP did so. The Chairman also asked for and received reports from senior management and outside legal advisors. At the conclusion of this meeting, the EMC Board approved the entering into of the proposed Combination Agreement.

    • The Combination Agreement was then executed by the parties on Sunday, June 3, 2007 and the terms of the transaction were announced in a joint press release issued by EMC and Uranium One prior to the commencement of trading on the TSX on June 4, 2007.

    Fairness Opinion

         The Special Committee retained GMP to deliver an opinion as to the fairness, from a financial point of view, of the Arrangement to the EMC Shareholders. GMP will receive a fee for providing financial advisory services to EMC in connection with the Arrangement. In addition, EMC has agreed to reimburse GMP for its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses and to indemnify GMP against certain potential liabilities and expenses arising from its engagement.

         GMP is a wholly-owned subsidiary of GMP Capital Corp., a publicly listed company on the Toronto Stock Exchange. GMP has offices in Toronto, Calgary, Montreal and Geneva, Switzerland, which provide research, corporate finance advice and services, and engage in trading and investment banking. GMP regularly engages in the valuation of securities in connection with mergers and acquisitions, public offerings and private placements of listed and unlisted securities and regularly engages in market making, underwriting and secondary trading of securities in connection with a variety of transactions. GMP is not in the business of providing auditing services and is not controlled by a financial institution.

         GMP has delivered the Fairness Opinion to the Special Committee, which states that, based upon and subject to the various matters described or referred to in the Fairness Opinion and such other factors as GMP considered relevant, GMP is of the opinion that as at June 3, 2007, the Arrangement is fair, from a financial point of view, to the EMC Shareholders.

         EMC Securityholders are urged to, and should, read the full text of the Fairness Opinion, which is attached as Appendix "D" to this Circular, for a complete description of the factors considered, the assumptions made and the limitations on the review undertaken by GMP in rendering the Fairness Opinion. GMP has consented to the inclusion in this Circular of the Fairness Opinion and the information included herein related to GMP and the Fairness Opinion. The Fairness Opinion addresses only the fairness of the Arrangement from a financial point of view and does not constitute a recommendation to any EMC Securityholder as to how to vote at the Meeting.

    Benefits of the Arrangement

         In the course of their evaluation of the Arrangement, the Special Committee and the EMC Board consulted with EMC's senior management, legal counsel, financial advisors and Uranium One's senior management, reviewed a significant amount of information in respect of Uranium One, and considered a number of factors including, among others, the following:



  • Significant Premium to EMC Securityholders. Uranium One has offered EMC Securityholders a significant premium to the trading price of the EMC Shares. The consideration to be received by EMC Shareholders under the Arrangement represents a premium of approximately 28 percent based on the volume-weighted average price of EMC Shares and Uranium One Shares on the TSX, in each case for the 20 trading days ended May 17, 2007 (being the day prior to the EMC announcement that it had entered into exclusive negotiations with respect to a potential sale of EMC).

         
  • Anticipated Benefits from Owning Shares in the Combined Company.Holding shares in the Combined Company resulting from the Arrangement is expected by the EMC Board to result in a number of benefits to EMC Securityholders. The Combined Company is expected to have the following attributes:

         
  • Uranium One becoming a significant uranium company in terms of mineral reserves and resources, geographic diversification of assets, uranium mining technical capabilities, market capitalization, trading liquidity, international shareholder base and financial strength.

         
  • A presence in the five largest uranium resource jurisdictions in the world, being Australia, Kazakhstan, Canada, the United States and South Africa.

         
  • Approximately one-third of total resources, including historical resources and Russian P1 resources, in each of the United States, Kazakhstan and South Africa, is expected to provide the foundation for potential production which will be diversified by geography and mining method.

         
  • Industry leading capabilities in ISR and conventional mining technologies.

         
  • A strong balance sheet to finance development of the asset portfolio, having approximately US$469 million in cash.

         
  • Continued Participation by EMC Shareholders in the assets of EMC and participation in the assets of Uranium One.EMC Shareholders, through their ownership of shares of the Combined Company, will continue to participate in any increase in the value of EMC's uranium projects and will also benefit from the assets of Uranium One and the Combined Company. EMC Shareholders will hold approximately 21 percent of the issued Uranium One Shares after completion of the Arrangement.

         
  • Continuity at the Board and Management Levels of the Combined Company.The board of directors of the Combined Company will, at the Effective Time, consist of eleven persons, two of whom will be nominees of EMC and nine of whom will be existing directors of Uranium One. All the current officers of Uranium One are expected to remain in place following the Arrangement. Subject to final negotiation, Paul Matysek, the current President and CEO of EMC, is expected to be Executive Vice-President, Americas of the Combined Company, and Dennis Stover, the current Chief Operating Officer of Energy Metals Corporation (US), is expected to be Senior Vice-President, Americas of the Combined Company. William Sheriff, the current Vice-President of Corporate Development and Chairman of the EMC Board, will be one of two EMC appointees to the Uranium One Board, and William Lupien will be appointed as a director of Aflease Gold. See "The Combined Company After The Arrangement — Directors and Officers of the Combined Company".

         
  • Uranium One represents a complementary strategic fit for EMC.Combining the assets of EMC with those of Uranium One results in the creation of a uranium company with a globally diversified resource footprint and expertise in conventional mining and ISR operations.

    Approval and Recommendation of the EMC Board

         The EMC Board, after taking into consideration, among other things, the recommendation of the Special Committee and the Fairness Opinion, has unanimously concluded that the Arrangement is fair to, and in the best interests of, EMC and the EMC Securityholders and has approved the Arrangement and authorized its submission to the EMC Securityholders and to the Court for approval. The EMC Board unanimously recommends that the EMC Securityholders vote in favour of the Arrangement.


    Interest of Directors and Executive Officers

         EMC Securityholders should be aware that certain Directors and Executive Officers of EMC may have interests in the Arrangement different from, or in addition to, the interests of EMC Securityholders.

    Directors

         The Directors of EMC hold, in the aggregate, 4,136,959 EMC Shares, representing approximately 4.8% of the EMC Shares outstanding on the Record Date. All of the EMC Shares held by the Directors will be treated in the same fashion under the Arrangement as EMC Shares held by any other EMC Shareholder.

         The Directors of EMC hold, in the aggregate, 3,618,000 EMC Options, representing approximately 47.8% of the EMC Options outstanding on the Record Date. All of the EMC Options held by the Directors will be treated in the same fashion under the Arrangement as EMC Options held by every other EMC Optionholder except that the vesting of unvested options will not be accelerated under the Arrangement for Paul Matysek, William Sheriff and William Lupien.

         Consistent with standard practice in similar transactions, in order to ensure that the Directors do not lose or forfeit their protection under liability insurance policies maintained by EMC, the Combination Agreement provides for the maintenance of such protection for six years. See "— Indemnification" below.

    Executive Officers

         The current responsibility for the general management of EMC is held and discharged by a group of six Executive Officers, led by Paul Matysek, the President and Chief Executive Officer of EMC. The Executive Officers of EMC are as follows:

    Executive Officer Position
       
    Paul Matysek President and Chief Executive Officer
    William Sheriff Chairman and Vice-President Corporate Development
    Dennis Stover Chief Operating Officer
    George Lim Chief Financial Officer
    Donna Wichers Senior Vice-President
    Christine Thomson Corporate Secretary

         The Executive Officers of EMC, in the aggregate, hold 3,395,309 EMC Shares representing approximately 3.9% of the EMC Shares outstanding on the Record Date. All of the EMC Shares held by the Executive Officers will be treated in the same fashion under the Arrangement as EMC Shares held by any other EMC Shareholder.

         The Executive Officers of EMC, in the aggregate, hold 3,862,500 EMC Options, representing approximately 51.1% of the EMC Options outstanding on the Record Date. All of the EMC Options held by the Executive Officers will be treated in the same fashion under the Arrangement as EMC Options held by every other EMC Optionholder except that the vesting of unvested options will not be accelerated under the Arrangement for Paul Matysek and William Sheriff.

         Paul Matysek, Dennis Stover and George Lim provide services to EMC through companies that they control. The Management Services Agreements between EMC and such companies, among other things, provide that (a) management fees will continue to be paid for a period varying from 12 months to 30 months, and (b) any EMC Options will immediately vest and be exerciseable for periods varying from 90 days to one year, if the Management Services Agreements are terminated without just cause following a change of control.

         William Sheriff is engaged to provide management services under an agreement that, among other things, provides that (a) management fees will continue to be paid for a period of 24 months and (b) any EMC Options will immediately vest and be exercisable for a period of 6 months, if the agreement is terminated without just cause following a change of control.


         Christine Thomson is employed under an agreement that provides that she may terminate the agreement within 30 days of a change of control and be entitled to six months compensation as well as the vesting of all EMC Options which may be exercised for a period of 90 days thereafter.

         Completion of the Arrangement will constitute a change of control under the agreements described above.

         Further information with respect to the compensation and the financial holdings and interests of the Chief Executive Officer, the Chief Financial Officer and the three other most highly compensated Executive Officers is contained in EMC's information circular dated October 27, 2006 with respect to the annual meeting of shareholders held on December 1, 2006, which is incorporated by reference into this Circular.


    Special Committee

         EMC's directors appointed the Special Committee consisting of William Lupien, Grayson Hand and William Harris to supervise the negotiation of the Combination Agreement and to make a recommendation to the EMC Board.

    Indemnification

         The Combination Agreement requires Uranium One to use commercially reasonable efforts to (a) procure prepaid non-cancellable run-off directors' and officers' liability insurance providing coverage (on terms comparable to those contained in EMC's current insurance policies) for six years from the Effective Time with respect to claims arising from or related to facts or events that occurred at or prior to the Effective Time in the same manner as such claims would have been covered if they arose prior to the Effective Time, or (b) cause to be maintained in effect, for not less than six years following the Effective Time, policies of directors' and officers' liability insurance containing substantially the same coverage and containing substantially similar terms and conditions for acts and omissions prior to the Effective Time as is provided under or contained in the policies of the directors' and officers' liability insurance maintained by EMC as of June 3, 2007 provided that in the case of (a), the cost shall be no more than 300% of the last annual premium paid prior to June 3, 2007 and, in the case of (b), so long as the annual premium is not in excess of 200% of the last annual premium paid prior to June 3, 2007.

    Arrangement Mechanics

         The following description of the Arrangement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Plan of Arrangement which is attached as Appendix "B" to this Circular. Subject to receipt of all required regulatory approvals and approval of the Court, the Arrangement will become effective on the Effective Date, which is anticipated to be on or about August 10, 2007.

    Treatment of EMC Shares

         Upon the Arrangement becoming effective, each Purchased EMC Share shall be and shall be deemed to be exchanged for 1.15 Uranium One Shares, as follows:

      (a)

    Uranium One shall acquire each of the Purchased EMC Shares and shall in exchange therefor issue the appropriate number of Uranium One Shares; and

         
      (b)

    at the Effective Time, without any further act or formality: (i) the holder of EMC Shares shall cease to be the holder of such EMC Shares and the name of the holder thereof shall be deemed to be removed from the central securities register of EMC; (ii) Uranium One shall be deemed to be the transferee of such EMC Shares, free of any claims or encumbrances, and shall be deemed to be entered in the central securities register of EMC as the holder of each such EMC Share; and (iii) certificates formerly representing Purchased EMC Shares prior to the Effective Time (other than EMC Shares beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, by Uranium One) shall cease to represent such EMC Shares and shall represent only the right to receive the consideration for such EMC Shares in accordance with the terms of the Arrangement.

    Fractional Shares

         No fractional shares will be issued by Uranium One to holders of EMC Shares. All fractional shares will be rounded down to the nearest whole number and no cash or other payment in lieu of fractional shares will be paid to any such EMC Shareholder.


    Treatment of EMC Options

         On June 21, 2007 there were EMC Options outstanding which, if fully vested, would entitle their holders to acquire a total of 7,561,817 EMC Shares at prices between $1.27 and $18.29 with various expiry dates until June 1, 2012.

    Prior to the Effective Time, EMC will:

      (a)

    accelerate the vesting of all EMC Options except for (i) those granted after March 1, 2007, and (ii) those held by Paul Matysek, William Sheriff and William Lupien;

         
      (b)

    amend the EMC Options so that the vesting of any EMC Options held by any director or officer of EMC who is required to resign upon completion of the Arrangement will be accelerated upon such completion, and will be exercisable until the first to occur of: (i) the original expiry date of the EMC Options; (ii) the first anniversary of such elimination or termination of employment; or (iii) as to any particular grant of EMC Options, the tenth anniversary of such grant of the EMC Options; and

         
      (c)

    amend the EMC Options so that the vesting of any EMC Options held by EMC officers who will remain with Uranium One following the Effective Date will be accelerated if, within six months after the Effective Date, their employment is terminated without just cause, and will be exercisable until the first to occur of: (i) the original expiry date of the EMC Options; (ii) the first anniversary of such elimination or termination of employment; or (iii) as to any particular grant of EMC Options, the tenth anniversary of such grant of the EMC Options.

         At the Effective Time, each EMC Option outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will be exchanged for a Uranium One Option to purchase the number of Uranium One Shares equal to the number of EMC Shares that would have been issuable immediately before the Effecive Time on the exercise of such EMC Option, multiplied by 1.15. The exercise price of the Uranium One Options will be the exercise price of the original EMC Option immediately before the Effecive Time, divided by 1.15. However, to the extent that the replacement of EMC Options with Uranium One Options would result in the issuance of a fraction of a Uranium One Share, then the number of Uranium One Shares subject to such Uranium One Options will be rounded down to the nearest whole number. If the aggregate exercise price payable to acquire the Uranium One Shares under the Uranium One Options includes a fraction of a cent, then such aggregate exercise price will be rounded up to the next whole cent. Otherwise, all terms and conditions of each Uranium One Option issued in exchange for an EMC Option, including as to vesting and expiry, will be the same as the terms of the EMC Option exchanged therefor.

         At the Effective Time each certificate formerly representing an EMC Option will, without any further act or formality, be deemed to be cancelled, and each EMC Optionholder will be entitled to receive a replacement certificate or other instrument representing the Uranium One Options for which the EMC Option was exchanged. Uranium One will register and make available, or send by first class mail, instruments representing the issued Uranium One Options to the last address of each former holder of an EMC Option as shown on the books and records of EMC.

    Shareholders of Uranium One following the Arrangement

         On June 21, 2007, there were 85,535,367 EMC Shares issued and outstanding and 365,186,102 Uranium One Shares issued and outstanding. Assuming that (a) all EMC Warrants are exercised prior to the Effective Time, (b) no Dissent Rights are exercised, and (c) no additional EMC Shares or Uranium One Shares are issued prior to the Effective Time, Uranium One will be issuing a total of 99,791,751 Uranium One Shares and 8,696,089 Uranium One Options under the Arrangement. Assuming that Uranium One issues no additional Uranium One Shares until the Effective Date, upon completion of the Arrangement there will be a total of 464,977,853 Uranium One Shares outstanding, approximately 21 percent of which will be owned by the former EMC Shareholders and approximately 79 percent of which will be owned by Uranium One Shareholders. Based on insider reports in respect of EMC and Uranium One filed to date, no person will have control or direction over more than 10 percent of the outstanding Uranium One Shares upon completion of the Arrangement.


    Court Approval

         The Arrangement requires Court approval under the Act. In addition to this approval, at the hearing the Court will be asked for a declaration that the Arrangement is fair to the EMC Securityholders. Prior to the mailing of this Circular, EMC obtained the Interim Order providing for the calling and holding of the Meeting and certain other procedural matters related to the Meeting. Following approval of the Arrangement Resolution by EMC Securityholders at the Meeting, EMC will make application to the Court for the Final Order. The Court hearing for the Final Order is currently scheduled for 9:45 a.m. (Vancouver time) on August 3, 2007 at the Courthouse, 850 Smithe Street, Vancouver, British Columbia. Any EMC Securityholder who wishes to appear or be represented and to present evidence or arguments at that hearing may do so. Such persons should consult with their legal advisors as to the necessary requirements.

         For further information regarding the court hearing and your rights in connection with the court hearing, see the form of Notice of Petition attached as Appendix "C" to this Circular. The Notice of Petition will be filed with the Court following the Meeting and will not be served upon anyone. This is your only notice of the Court hearing.

    Required Securityholder Approvals

         In order to implement the Arrangement, the Arrangement Resolution (a copy of which is attached to this Circular as Appendix "A") must be approved by at least two-thirds of the votes cast by EMC Securityholders voting together as a class, present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote at the Meeting. In addition, the TSX requires that a majority of the votes cast by EMC Shareholders at the Meeting approve the Arrangement Resolution. The resolution must be passed by the requisite majority in order for EMC to seek the Final Order and implement the Plan of Arrangement on the Effective Date in accordance with the Final Order.

         Each of the directors and senior officers of EMC who beneficially owns EMC Shares or EMC Options intends to vote such shares or options in favour of the Arrangement.

    TREATMENT OF EMC WARRANTS AND EMC CONTINGENT SHARE RIGHTS

         On June 21, 2007 there were 1,240,069 EMC Warrants outstanding which entitled their holders to acquire a total of 1,240,069 EMC Shares at prices between $5.50 and $6.50 with various expiry dates until April 13, 2008. Under the certificates governing such EMC Warrants, if the closing price of EMC Shares exceeds $7.50 for twenty consecutive trading days, EMC may deliver a written notice to the holders of EMC Warrants requiring such EMC Warrants to be exercised within 30 calendar days of delivery of such notice, failing which any unexercised EMC Warrants will be deemed expired. On June 7, 2007, EMC sent a notice to EMC Warrantholders giving them notice that EMC was exercising its right to require exercise of the EMC Warrants, and that if the EMC Warrants were not exercised on or before July 6, 2007, any outstanding EMC Warrants at that date would be deemed expired and no longer valid. Any EMC Warrants still outstanding on July 7, 2007 will be deemed expired on that date, such that on the Effective Date, no EMC Warrants will be outstanding.

         GMP, which held 110,000 EMC Warrants with respect to which EMC did not have the right to require exercise, has exercised all its EMC Warrants.

         As of June 21, 2007, the EMC Contingent Share Right Holders collectively held contractual rights to acquire up to an aggregate of 1,834,000 EMC Shares. As of the date of this Circular, all of these EMC Contingent Share Right Holders have either signed agreements amending their arrangements such that, or the parties are otherwise satisfied that, after the Effective Date they will no longer receive EMC Shares but will instead receive 1.15 Uranium One Shares for each EMC Share that they would otherwise have been entitled to receive. As a result, following the Effective Date Uranium One will be obligated to issue up to 2,109,100 Uranium One Shares to EMC Contingent Share Right Holders.

    THE COMBINATION AGREEMENT AND RELATED AGREEMENTS

         The following paragraphs summarize, among other things, the material terms of the Combination Agreement. EMC filed a copy of the Combination Agreement on SEDAR on June 8, 2007 and on the SEC's EDGAR system on June 11, 2007.

    Additional EMC Business Covenants

         In the Combination Agreement, EMC agreed, among other things, that, except as waived by Uranium One or as contemplated in the Combination Agreement, until the earlier of the Effective Date or the termination of the Combination Agreement, it will:

      (a)

    not, nor will it allow any Subsidiary to:

           
      (i)

    make any commitments in excess of, or enter into any contracts or group of related contracts with a value or aggregate value (as the case may be) in excess of US$25,000,000 without Uranium One's consent, except that (i) EMC may continue to negotiate contracts for the sale by it of product in the normal course of business without consultation with Uranium One and (ii) EMC may, subject to certain restrictions, negotiate the terms of and enter into binding agreements in respect of a potential acquisition in the United States without Uranium One's prior consent; or

           
      (ii)

      (d)

    not (i) incur, assume or prepay, or allow any of its Subsidiaries to incur, assume or prepay, any long-term or short-term debt or issue any debt securities, except for borrowings by EMC or its Subsidiaries under the credit facilities existing on June 3, 2007 in the usual, ordinary and regular course of business and consistent with past practice, and except for the incurrence or increase in obligations solely among EMC and its Subsidiaries; (ii) assume, guarantee, endorse or otherwise become liable or responsible (whether directly, contingently or otherwise) for the obligations of any other Person, except for the incurrence or increase in

      (g)

    not make or agree to make, or permit any of its Subsidiaries to make or agree to make, any capital expenditure, other than capital expenditures that are made in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice or which are in accordance with EMC's existing budgets provided to Uranium One prior to June 3, 2007;

    to the extent it has knowledge thereof, it will, in all material respects, conduct itself so as to keep Uranium One fully informed as to the material decisions or actions made or required to be made with respect to the operation of its business and that of its Subsidiaries except for competitively sensitive information concerning the terms of contracts for product sold by EMC or current contract negotiations for future product sales by EMC that may be furnished to the outside advisors of Uranium One who agree to keep such information confidential and not disclose it to their client;

         
      (l)

    subject only to Section 18 of the Combination Agreement and the fiduciary duties of the EMC Board, make the Recommendation, not take any steps to change or withdraw the Recommendation in a manner adverse to Uranium One or which would impede the completion of the Arrangement, and not make a recommendation to EMC Securityholders not to vote in favour of the Arrangement Resolution and will publicly reaffirm the Recommendation within five Business Days of a request to do so made by Uranium One in the event an actual or proposed Acquisition Proposal in respect of EMC is publicly announced or made aware to EMC Shareholders or EMC Optionholders;




      (m)

    use commercially reasonable efforts to cause all directors, officers and senior management of EMC with whom EMC has employment or management consulting agreements to execute a waiver, in form and substance satisfactory to Uranium One and its counsel acting reasonably, of:

           
      (i)

    all provisions of such employment or management consulting agreements that would alter the respective rights and obligations of EMC and such directors, officers and senior management in the event of a change of control of EMC pursuant to the Arrangement; and

           
      (ii)

    all provisions of such employment or management consulting agreements and all provisions of any stock options granted to such directors, officers and senior management that would accelerate the vesting of any stock options granted by EMC to such directors, officers and senior management in connection with the Arrangement;

           
     

    except insofar as such agreements relate to the vesting of EMC Options;

           
      (n)

    use commercially reasonable efforts to cause EMC Contingent Share Right Holders to enter into an amendment to the EMC Contingent Share Agreements in form and substance acceptable to Uranium One, acting reasonably, to the effect that if the Arrangement is completed, such Person shall be entitled to receive, in lieu of such securities, that number of Uranium One Shares that is equal to the number of EMC Shares or common shares of Energy Metals Corporation (US), as applicable, to which such person would have been entitled immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by 1.15, including customary securities law representations and covenants;

      (t)

    effect such reorganization of its wholly-owned subsidiaries, business, operations and assets or such other transactions as Uranium One may reasonably request prior to the Effective Date, and the Plan of Arrangement, if required, will be modified accordingly; provided, however, that EMC need not effect a Pre- acquisition Reorganization which in the opinion of EMC, acting reasonably, (A) would require EMC to obtain the approval of any EMC Securityholders in respect of such Pre-acquisition Reorganization other than at the Meeting, (B) would prejudice any EMC Securityholders, (C) would impede or materially delay the consummation of the transactions contemplated in the Combination Agreement, (D) cannot either be (I) completed immediately prior to or contemporaneously with the Effective Time, or (II) reversed or unwound without adversely affecting EMC and it Subsidiaries; or (E) would require a filing with or approval, exemption or other action of any Governmental Entity;

           
      (u)

    use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the directors of EMC required to resign on the Effective Date to resign as directors of EMC at the Effective Time and to provide a release of all claims by such persons as directors of EMC in form and substance acceptable to Uranium One, acting reasonably; and

      (b)

    to the extent such decisions or actions are within the control of Uranium One or its Subsidiaries, as applicable, not, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries not to, make any material decisions or take any material actions with respect to the development of, or commitments to develop, any mining and mineral project without keeping EMC fully informed thereof on a timely basis, it being recognized and understood that Uranium One has mining projects under development, no action consistent with current development plans in respect of a mining project, as disclosed in Uranium One's Public Disclosure Documents or as otherwise disclosed to EMC, will be subject to this restriction;

         
      (c)

    Covenants in Respect of the Arrangement

         In the Combination Agreement, each of EMC and Uranium One agreed, among other things, that until the earlier of the termination of the Combination Agreement or the Effective Date (except as contemplated in the Combination Agreement), it will, in a timely and expeditious manner, take all necessary actions in order to enable it to participate in and effect the Arrangement and use commercially reasonable efforts to satisfy (or cause the satisfaction of) the conditions


    precedent to the obligations of the other party under the Combination Agreement to the extent the same are within its control and will take, do or cause to be taken or done, all other actions and all other things necessary, proper or advisable under all Applicable Laws to complete the Arrangement, including to:

      (a)

      (c)

    effect all necessary registrations, filings and applications to, and submissions of information requested by, Governmental Entities required to be effected by it or its Subsidiaries in connection with the Arrangement and, if necessary, participate and appear in any proceedings of any party before or by any Governmental Entity, provided, however, that Uranium One shall not be required to file any registration statement under the U.S. Securities Act except the Registration Statement, and shall not be required to register or qualify as a foreign corporation or take any action that would subject it to securities-related reporting obligations in any jurisdiction where Uranium One is not so subject prior to the Effective Date;

         
      (d)

    use commercially reasonable efforts to have lifted or rescinded any injunction or restraining order or other order or action seeking to stop, or otherwise adversely affecting the ability of the parties to consummate, the Arrangement or the transactions contemplated under the Combination Agreement;

      (g)

    proceeding diligently in a coordinated manner using commercially reasonable efforts to jointly prepare as quickly as possible the Circular and the Registration Statement together with any other documents required by Applicable Laws in connection with the Meeting. EMC agreed to provide to Uranium One a reasonable opportunity to review and to comment on the Circular and to take into consideration and make such changes thereto as are reasonably requested by Uranium One. Uranium One agreed to provide to EMC a reasonable opportunity to review and to comment on the Registration Statement and that Uranium One would take into consideration and make such changes thereto as were reasonably requested by EMC. Each of the parties agreed to ensure that the information relating to it which is provided in the Circular and the Registration Statement does not contain any misrepresentation or untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein in order to make the statements contained therein not misleading in light of the circumstances in which they are made. EMC agreed to ensure that the Circular complies with all Applicable Laws and provides the EMC Securityholders with information in sufficient detail to permit them to form a reasoned judgment concerning the matters to be placed before them at the Meeting. Each of the parties agreed to promptly notify the other party if it became aware that the Circular or the Registration Statement contained a misrepresentation or untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein in order to make the statements contained therein not misleading in light of the circumstances in which they were made. In any event, the parties agreed to cooperate in the preparation of a supplement or amendment to the Circular and the Registration Statement, as the case may be, to correct any misrepresentation or untrue statement of a material fact or omission to state a material fact required to be




     

    stated therein in order to make the statements contained therein not misleading in light of the circumstances in which they were made;

         
      (h)

      (j)

    the taking of all such action as may be required under Applicable Laws in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Combination Agreement or the Plan of Arrangement.

    Specific Covenants of EMC in Respect of the Arrangement

         In the Combination Agreement, EMC agreed, among other things, that until the earlier of the termination of the Combination Agreement and the Effective Date (except as contemplated in the Combination Agreement) it will:

      (a)

    subject to receipt of the Interim Order and the filing and effectiveness of the Registration Statement, cause this Circular and any other documentation required in connection with the Meeting (i) to be sent to each EMC Securityholder as soon as reasonably practicable, using commercially reasonable efforts to cause such mailing to occur by June 29, 2007; and (ii) to be filed as required by the Interim Order and Applicable Laws;

         
      (b)

    subject to the mailing of this Circular, convene and hold the Meeting as soon as reasonably practicable, using commercially reasonable efforts to convene and hold the Meeting by July 31, 2007, for the purpose of considering and, if deemed advisable, approving the Arrangement Resolution (and for any other proper purpose relating to the Arrangement as may be set out in the notice for the Meeting);

         
      (c)

    not adjourn or postpone (or propose for adjournment or postponement) the Meeting without Uranium One's prior written consent, except as required by Applicable Laws or except, if a Superior Proposal is received less than ten Business Days before the date scheduled for the Meeting, for an adjournment of the Meeting for a period of time sufficient to communicate to the EMC Securityholders prior to the date to which the Meeting has been adjourned any amendment to the Arrangement proposed by Uranium One under subsection 18(a)(ii) of the Combination Agreement, such period not to exceed ten Business Days;

         
      (d)

    if (i) the approval of the Arrangement Resolution in accordance with the Interim Order (including any variation thereof approved by the parties) is obtained; (ii) any other approvals required by the Interim Order (including any variation thereof approved by the parties) are obtained, and (iii) all Appropriate Regulatory Approvals are obtained, as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter, together with Uranium One, apply for the Final Order on such terms as the Court may direct and the parties may agree; and

         
      (e)

    if the Final Order is obtained, on a date and time agreed with Uranium One, and in any event prior to November 30, 2007, subject to the fulfillment or waiver of each of the conditions set forth herein, give effect to the Plan of Arrangement as soon as reasonably practicable following satisfaction or waiver of each of such conditions and completion of all steps required by the Plan of Arrangement to be completed prior to the Effective Date, including, if required, filing of any documents, required to be filed with the Registrar to effect the Arrangement.



    Specific Covenants of Uranium One in Respect of the Arrangement

         In the Combination Agreement, Uranium One agreed, among other things, that until the earlier of the termination of the Combination Agreement and the Effective Date (except as contemplated in the Combination Agreement) it will:

      (a)

    co-operate with, assist and consent to EMC seeking the Interim Order and the Final Order;

         
      (b)

    as soon as reasonably practicable, apply for and use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the listing of the Uranium One Shares to be issued to the EMC Securityholders pursuant to the Arrangement on the TSX and the JSE; and

         
      (c)

    as soon as reasonably practicable, apply for and use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all approvals and orders required from all applicable regulatory authorities to ensure that the Uranium One Shares to be issued to the EMC Securityholders pursuant to the Arrangement, will not be subject to any statutory hold period under applicable securities laws in Canada (subject only to restrictions on control block distributions) or under applicable U.S. securities laws (except as provided under the U.S. Securities Act including Rule 145 thereunder and, for the Uranium One Shares to be issued on the exercise of Uranium One Options that replace EMC Options, under applicable U.S. state securities laws).

         Uranium One also agreed that, from and after the Effective Time, it will:

      (d)

    cause EMC to honour all severance obligations to EMC employees; and

         
      (e)

    take all such steps as may be necessary to terminate, as soon as reasonably practicable, EMC's public disclosure and reporting obligations in Canada and the United States.

    Non-Solicitation Covenants of EMC

         EMC has ceased all discussions and negotiations with all parties (other than Uranium One) with respect to any Acquisition Proposal involving EMC. EMC has agreed that it will not, directly or indirectly, through any officer, director, employee, advisor, representative or agent of EMC or any of its Subsidiaries: (i) solicit, initiate, facilitate, engage in or respond to or encourage (including by way of furnishing information or entering into any form of agreement, arrangement or understanding) any inquiries, proposals or transactions involving EMC and/or its Subsidiaries in respect of an Acquisition Proposal; (ii) encourage or participate in any discussions or negotiations regarding any Acquisition Proposal; (iii) accept or approve or recommend, or agree to accept, approve or recommend, any Acquisition Proposal; or (iv) enter into any agreement, arrangement or understanding related to any Acquisition Proposal. The foregoing does not prevent the EMC Board from responding to a Superior Proposal in the manner set out in the Combination Agreement.

         Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of the Combination Agreement, prior to the date on which the Arrangement Resolution is approved, the EMC Board may consider, negotiate, approve or recommend to the EMC Shareholders, or enter into a confidentiality agreement and provide information pursuant thereto, in respect of an unsolicited bona fide written Acquisition Proposal that the EMC Board determines, in good faith, is reasonably likely to result in a Superior Proposal.

         EMC is required promptly to notify Uranium One orally and in writing within 24 hours of any Acquisition Proposal or any amendment to an Acquisition Proposal being received directly or indirectly by EMC, or any request for non-public information relating to EMC or any of its Subsidiaries, in connection with an Acquisition Proposal or for access to the properties, books, and/or records of EMC or any Subsidiary, by any person that informs EMC or a Subsidiary of EMC that it is considering making, or has made, an Acquisition Proposal regarding EMC. Such written notice must include a copy of the written Acquisition Proposal and all amendments thereto, or in the absence of a written Acquisition Proposal, a description of the material terms and conditions thereof, in either case including the identity of the person making the Acquisition Proposal, enquiry or contact. If EMC receives a request for non-public information from a person proposing an unsolicited bona fide Acquisition Proposal and EMC is permitted, as set out above, to negotiate the terms of such Acquisition Proposal, then and only in such case the EMC Board may, subject to the execution by such person of a confidentiality agreement containing a standstill and other provisions substantially similar to those contained in the Confidentiality Agreement (see "The


    Combination Agreement and Related Agreements — Confidentiality Agreement"), provide such person with access to information regarding EMC. EMC is required to provide a copy of any such confidentiality agreement (including the identity of the person who has entered into such agreement if not contained therein) to Uranium One as soon as practicable and in any event within 24 hours of its execution and will as soon as practicable, and in any event within 24 hours, provide Uranium One with a list of, and copies of, all information provided to that person that was not previously provided to Uranium One and immediately provide Uranium One with all other information that was provided to that person.

         Notwithstanding the foregoing, EMC may accept, approve, recommend or enter into any agreement, understanding or arrangement in respect of a Superior Proposal if, and only if, it has complied with the non-solicitation covenants in the Combination Agreement and, (i) it has provided Uranium One with a copy of the Superior Proposal document, (ii) five Business Days have elapsed from the date Uranium One received notice advising it that the EMC Board has resolved, subject only to compliance with these provisions and termination of the Combination Agreement, to accept, approve, recommend or enter into an agreement in respect of such Superior Proposal, (iii) EMC has previously or concurrently will have (A) paid to Uranium One the Break Fee, if any, and (B) terminated the Combination Agreement, and (iv) in the case of an Acquisition Proposal that includes non-cash consideration, it has provided to Uranium One the value or range of values attributed by the EMC Board, in good faith, for such non-cash consideration after consultation with its financial advisors. During such five Business Day period, Uranium One may, but is not obligated to, offer to amend the terms of the Combination Agreement to provide for consideration to EMC Shareholders equivalent to that of the Superior Proposal. The EMC Board must review any offer by Uranium One to amend the terms of the Combination Agreement in good faith in order to determine, in its discretion in the exercise of its fiduciary duties, whether Uranium One's offer (upon acceptance by EMC) would result in such Superior Proposal ceasing to be a Superior Proposal. If the EMC Board so determines, it will enter into an amended agreement with Uranium One reflecting Uranium One's amended proposal. If the EMC Board continues to believe, in good faith and after consultation with its legal, financial and other advisors, that such Superior Proposal remains a Superior Proposal and therefore rejects Uranium One's amended proposal, EMC may terminate the Combination Agreement provided that, concurrently with such termination, EMC pays to Uranium One the Break Fee. Thereafter EMC may enter into a definitive agreement with respect to such Superior Proposal.

      (i)

    the Effective Date shall have occurred on or before November 30, 2007;

      (e)

    the party shall not have become aware of any misrepresentation, untrue statement of a material fact, or an omission to state a material fact that is required to be stated or that is necessary to make a statement not misleading in light of the circumstances in which it was made and at the date it was made (after giving effect to all subsequent filings in relation to all matters covered in earlier filings), in any document (including the

    Satisfaction of Conditions

         The conditions precedent set out in the Combination Agreement will be conclusively deemed to have been satisfied, waived or released at the Effective Time.

    Amendment and Waiver

    by mutual written consent of Uranium One and EMC;

           
      (b)

    by either EMC or Uranium One if the other party is in breach of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or other agreements contained in the Combination Agreement in any material respect and such breach is not capable of being cured or is not cured by the breaching party within seven Business Days of the receipt of notice of such breach by the breaching party;

           
      (c)

    by either EMC or Uranium One if any of the following have occurred:

           
      (i)

    if the approval of the EMC Securityholders for the Arrangement has not been obtained by August 30, 2007, or such later date as may be permitted under the Combination Agreement, or as the parties may agree in writing, provided that Uranium One has provided to EMC in a timely manner all information reasonably required by EMC for the preparation of the Circular; or

           
      (ii)

    if the EMC Securityholders do not approve the Arrangement Resolution at the Meeting;

           
      (d)

    by Uranium One, if the EMC Board (i) withdraws or changes its recommendation to the EMC Securityholders to vote in favour of the Arrangement or has made a recommendation to the EMC Securityholders not to accept or approve the Arrangement; (ii) has not submitted the Arrangement for approval to EMC Securityholders on or prior to August 30, 2007 or such later date as may be permitted under the Combination Agreement, or as the parties may agree in writing, provided that Uranium One has provided to EMC in a timely manner all information reasonably required by EMC for the preparation of the Circular; (iii) has failed to solicit proxies in favour of approving the Arrangement; or (iv) has resolved to do any of the foregoing;

           
      (e)

    by Uranium One, if an Acquisition Proposal in respect of EMC has been made or proposed and the EMC Board shall have failed, after being requested by Uranium One in writing, to reaffirm its recommendation to the EMC Securityholders to approve the Arrangement as promptly as possible but in any event, within five Business Days after receipt of such written request from Uranium One;

           
      (f)

    by either party upon the determination by EMC, after conclusion of the process set out in Section 17 of the Combination Agreement, that an Acquisition Proposal constitutes a Superior Proposal, the provision of notice to Uranium One of a Superior Proposal as required by Section 18 and the time period for Uranium One to propose an amendment to the Agreement as contemplated by Section 18 has elapsed, and Uranium One has failed to propose an amendment to the Combination Agreement which satisfies the criteria set out in subsection 18(b); or

           
      (g)

    by either party by written notice to the other, if the Effective Time does not occur by 5:00 p.m. (Vancouver time) on November 30, 2007.

         If the Combination Agreement is terminated in accordance with the foregoing, no party will have any further liability to perform its obligations under the Combination Agreement except as otherwise contemplated by the Combination Agreement. However, the termination of the Combination Agreement will not relieve any party from any liability for any breach by it of the Combination Agreement or preclude either party from seeking injunctive relief in respect of a breach of the Combination Agreement by the other party.


    Break Fee and Reimbursement of Expenses

         Uranium One is entitled to be paid the Break Fee of $55,000,000 upon the occurrence of any of the following Break Fee Events:

      (a)

    if Uranium One terminates the Combination Agreement as a result of EMC not complying with its covenants in respect of (i) issuing or encumbering any EMC securities or any of its assets or properties, (ii) amending its constating documents, (iii) amending the terms of the EMC Shares or paying dividends on such shares, (iv) splitting, combining or reclassifying any of the outstanding EMC Shares; (v) terminating or materially amending any material contracts to which it is a party, (vi) non-solicitation (but excluding any immaterial breach of a non-solicitation provision that could not reasonably be expected to have a material impact on the timing or likelihood of completing the Arrangement, or (vii) Superior Proposals;

         
      (b)

    if Uranium One terminates the Combination Agreement as a result of EMC taking action (i) that interferes with EMC's obligations under the Combination Agreement, (ii) that could reasonably be expected to significantly impede the completion of the Arrangement, or (iii) that would render any representation or warranty made by it in the Combination Agreement that is qualified as to materiality untrue or any of such representations and warranties that are not so qualified untrue in any material respect;

         
      (c)

    if Uranium One terminates the Combination Agreement as a result of (i) the EMC Board having withdrawn or changed its approval or Recommendation of the Arrangement or has made a recommendation to the EMC Shareholders not to accept or approve the Arrangement; (ii) the EMC Board has not submitted the Arrangement for approval to the EMC Securityholders on or before August 30, 2007 or such later date as may be permitted by the Combination Agreement; (iii) the EMC Board has failed to solicit proxies in favour of approving the Arrangement; or (iv) the EMC Board has resolved to do any of the foregoing;

         
      (d)

    if Uranium One terminates the Combination Agreement as a result of an Acquisition Proposal in respect of EMC having been made or proposed and the EMC Board fails, after being requested by Uranium One in writing, to reaffirm its Recommendation to the EMC Shareholders to approve the Arrangement;

         
      (e)

    if Uranium One terminates the Combination Agreement as a result of EMC breaching its covenant not to solicit an Acquisition Proposal, EMC failing to notify Uranium One of an Acquisition Proposal having been made or EMC failing to provide Uranium One with a copy of any Acquisition Proposal;

         
      (f)

    if EMC terminates the Combination Agreement in order to enter into a Superior Proposal pursuant to the Combination Agreement;

         
      (g)

    if all of the following occur: (i) prior to termination of the Combination Agreement, an Acquisition Proposal is made to EMC or made known to the EMC Shareholders or EMC Optionholders generally or made directly to EMC Shareholders or EMC Optionholders or any person publicly announces an intention to make an Acquisition Proposal in respect of EMC; (ii) the Combination Agreement is terminated; and (iii) EMC completes an Acquisition Proposal within nine months following termination of the Combination Agreement;

         
      (h)

    if either EMC or Uranium One terminates the Combination Agreement after the EMC Board determines that an Acquisition Proposal constitutes a Superior Proposal and Uranium One fails to propose an amendment to the Combination Agreement within the time period provided for in the Combination Agreement; or

         
      (i)

    if the Meeting is not held on or prior to August 30, 2007 or such later date as may be permitted under the Combination Agreement, or as the parties may agree in writing, provided that Uranium One has provided to EMC in a timely manner all information reasonably required by EMC for preparation of the Circular.

         If EMC pays the Break Fee as a result of the occurrence of a Break Fee Event, Uranium One has no other remedy for breach of the Combination Agreement by EMC.


         If the Combination Agreement is terminated by Uranium One because the approval of the EMC Shareholders for the Arrangement has not been obtained by August 30, 2007 or such later date as may be permitted under the Combination Agreement, or the EMC Shareholders fail to approve the Arrangement Resolution, EMC is required to pay Uranium One $7,500,000 within one Business Day of such termination.

         If the Combination Agreement is terminated by EMC due to a breach by Uranium One of any of its representations, warranties or covenants contained in the Combination Agreement in any material respect, and the breach is not capable of being cured or is not cured within the time frame provided in the Combination Agreement, Uranium One is required to pay EMC $5,000,000 within one Business Day of such termination.

    Liquidated Damages

         Pursuant to the Combination Agreement, each party acknowledged that the payment amounts related to the Break Fee Events and reimbursement of expenses are payments of liquidated damages, which reflect genuine pre-estimates of the damages that the parties would incur as a result of the event giving rise to such damages. The parties irrevocably and unconditionally waived any right to raise as a defence the argument that any such liquidated damages are excessive or punitive.

    Confidentiality Agreement

         Pursuant to the Confidentiality Agreement, each of EMC and Uranium One agreed to keep confidential all non-public information provided to it or its representatives, or to which it or its representatives are given access, by the other party. The Confidentiality Agreement contains terms restricting the use of such information and permits disclosure of such information in certain circumstances if required by applicable law or regulation or by legal process.

    The Support and Lock-Up Agreements

         The directors and officers of EMC who together own approximately 4.9 percent of the EMC Shares, have each entered into a Management Support Agreement with Uranium One under which each of them has agreed, subject to certain terms and conditions, to support the Arrangement by, amongst other things, voting in favour of the Arrangement at the Meeting. Pursuant to the Management Support Agreements, each of the directors and officers has agreed, among other things:

      (a)

    subject to certain exceptions, not to transfer any EMC Shares without Uranium One's consent;

         
      (b)

    not to: (i) take any action, directly or indirectly, to solicit, initiate, facilitate, engage in, or respond to or encourage any Acquisition Proposal; (ii) encourage or participate in any discussions or negotiations regarding any Acquisition Proposal; (iii) accept or approve or recommend, or agree to accept or approve or recommend, any Acquisition Proposal; or (iv) cause EMC to enter into any agreement, arrangement or understanding related to any Acquisition Proposal;

         
      (c)

    to vote their respective EMC Shares at the Meeting in favour of the Arrangement Resolution, and against any Acquisition Proposal that would be inconsistent with EMC's obligations under the Combination Agreement;

         
      (d)

    not to take any steps, directly or indirectly, which may in any way materially and adversely affect the Arrangement or take action of any kind which may reduce the likelihood of success or completion of the Arrangement;

         
      (e)

    promptly notify Uranium One upon receipt of any expression of interest, inquiry, proposal or offer relating to an Acquisition Proposal and disclose to Uranium One the relevant details thereof;

         
      (f)

    not exercise any Dissent Rights; and




      (g)

    take all action necessary to permit the voting of his or her EMC Shares in accordance with the terms of the Management Support Agreement.

         The foregoing will not prevent any director or officer of EMC, solely in his or her capacity as a director or officer of EMC, from acting in accordance with the exercise of his or her fiduciary duties or other legal obligation to act in the best interests of EMC, if such action is required in order for the director or officer to fulfill his or her fiduciary duty as a director or officer, and provided that the EMC Board has first obtained the written advice of legal counsel that such action is required by applicable law.

         In addition to the foregoing, the Management Support Agreements executed by Messrs. Matysek, Sheriff and Lupien contain lock-up provisions which prevent them from selling, transferring or encumbering, without the prior written consent of Uranium One, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, for a period of six months following the mailing of this Circular, more than 10 percent of their Uranium One common shares (or other shares or securities or instruments directly or indirectly convertible into or exchangeable for Uranium One Shares) which are held or beneficially owned by them or their associates or affiliates, including any such securities acquired subsequent to the date of the Management Support Agreements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each of Messrs. Matysek, Sheriff and Lupien may transfer more than 10 percent of their securities to (i) a spouse, parent, child or grandchild of the shareholder, or if the shareholder is a corporation, any director or officer or shareholder of such corporation (a "Relation"), (ii) a trust, the only beneficiaries of which are any of the shareholder, any of the directors, officers or shareholders of the shareholder and/or one or more of their Relations, or (iii) a corporation or other entity of the shareholder, of which the shareholder, any of the directors, officers or shareholders of the shareholder, and/or their Relations are at all times the direct legal and beneficial owners of all of the outstanding shares, provided that in each case the transferee agrees in writing to be bound by the same restrictions in respect of future transfers.

    Expenses of the Arrangement

         The estimated fees, costs and expenses of EMC in connection with the Arrangement including, without limitation, financial advisory fees, filing fees and legal and accounting fees, are estimated to be $7 million.

    SECURITIES LAW CONSIDERATIONS

    Canadian Securities Laws

         EMC is a reporting issuer in BC, Alberta, Ontario and Quebec, and Uranium One is a reporting issuer in each province of Canada. The issuance of Uranium One Shares in connection with the Arrangement will be exempt from the prospectus and registration requirements of applicable Canadian securities legislation. The Uranium One Shares received pursuant to the Arrangement will not be legended and will be free from first trade restrictions provided that (i) such sale is not a control distribution, (ii) no unusual effort is made to prepare the market or to create a demand for the Uranium One Shares, (iii) no extraordinary commission or consideration is paid to a person or company in respect of such sale and (iv) if the selling security holder is an insider or officer of Uranium One, the selling security holder has no reasonable grounds to believe that Uranium One is in default of applicable Canadian securities laws. Each EMC Securityholder is urged to consult his or her professional advisors to determine the Canadian conditions and restrictions applicable to trades in Uranium One Shares.

    U.S. Securities Laws

         The EMC Shares are registered under Section 12 of the U.S. Exchange Act and listed on the NYSE Arca. EMC files reports with the SEC pursuant to Section 13(a) of the U.S. Exchange Act. EMC anticipates that upon completion of the Arrangement, Uranium One will terminate the registration of the EMC Shares under the U.S. Exchange Act and the listing of the EMC Shares on the NYSE Arca.

         Uranium One currently relies on an exemption from the registration and reporting requirements under the U.S. Exchange Act provided by Rule 12g3-2(b). Uranium One does not currently intend to cause the Uranium One Shares to be listed or quoted on any United States stock exchange and Uranium One will continue to be exempt from the registration


    and reporting requirements under the U.S. Exchange Act by virtue of Rules 12g3-2 and 12h-4 thereunder. Rules 12g3-2 and 12h-4 provide that a Canadian foreign private issuer exempt from registration pursuant to Rule 12g3-2(b) will continue to be exempt from registration thereunder, and will be exempt from the duty under Section 15(d) to file reports with the SEC, with respect to securities registered under the U.S. Securities Act on Form F-80.

         Uranium One will file the Registration Statement with the SEC in order to register the issuance pursuant to the Arrangement of the Uranium One Shares to the EMC Shareholders in exchange for their EMC Shares. This Circular will form a part of the Registration Statement. The following documents will be filed with the SEC as a part of the Registration Statement: (i) the Combination Agreement and related instruments; (ii) the documents listed in this Circular as incorporated by reference herein; (iii) powers of attorney pursuant to which amendments to the Registration Statement may be signed; and (iv) consents of auditors, counsel and engineers.

         The Uranium One Shares issued to the EMC Shareholders will be freely tradable by persons deemed not to be affiliates of EMC or Uranium One prior to the Effective Time or of Uranium One after the Effective Time. Resales of such Uranium One Shares by persons that were affiliates of EMC or Uranium One prior to the Effective Time or affiliates of Uranium One after the Effective Time will be subject to resale restrictions under Rule 145(c). Uranium One has no present plans to register such Uranium One Shares for resale under the U.S. Securities Act. Accordingly, affiliates must rely on an exemption or exclusion from registration in order to resell their Uranium One Shares.

         Affiliates wishing to resell Uranium One Shares received in the Arrangement may seek to rely on the exemption from registration provided by Rule 145(d) under the U.S. Securities Act. As explained more fully below, the availability of the exemption from registration found in Rule 145(d) cannot be assured. Affiliates may, alternatively, rely on Regulation S for resales outside the United States and trade their Uranium One Shares on the TSX or the JSE.

         Persons who are affiliates of Uranium One or EMC prior to the Arrangement or who will be an affiliate of Uranium One after the Arrangement will be entitled to resell the Uranium One Shares in the United States under Rule 145(d) if the following conditions are satisfied:

    • during any three month period, the number of Uranium One Shares sold does not exceed one percent of the then outstanding class of securities;

    • Uranium One shall have been subject to the reporting requirements under the U.S. Exchange Act for 90 days prior to the date of the resale and shall have filed all reports required under the U.S. Exchange Act for the preceding 12 months, or information regarding Uranium One meeting the requirements of Rule 144(c) shall otherwise be publicly available. Such information must include, among other things, Uranium One's financial statements and a description of Uranium One's business, products and facilities; and

    • The resale shall have occurred in a "brokers' transaction", which essentially means that the resale must occur through a broker in an unsolicited transaction in which the broker does no more than execute the transaction as the seller's agent and receives no more than a customary broker's commission.

         Affiliates of Uranium One or EMC who are not affiliates of Uranium One following the Arrangement, and who hold their Uranium One Shares for a period of one year after the Arrangement, may resell such securities without regard to the volume and manner of sale limitations described above, subject to the availability of certain public information about Uranium One. Holders of Uranium One Shares who have not been an affiliate of Uranium One for the three-month period preceding the date of sale and who have held their Uranium One Shares for a period of two years may resell such securities without restrictions under the U.S. Securities Act.

         As noted above, however, no assurance can be provided that Rule 145(d) will be available to affiliates for resales of their Uranium One Shares. Uranium One is not required to and is not currently filing periodic reports with the SEC pursuant to Sections 13 or 15(d) of the U.S. Exchange Act. Pursuant to an exemption under the U.S. Exchange Act and the rules of the SEC, the filing of the Registration Statement in connection with the Arrangement will not result in Uranium One becoming a reporting company in the United States. Uranium One has no present intention of registering as a reporting company in the United States under the U.S. Exchange Act and, as a result, Uranium One will only satisfy the information requirements necessary to permit resale of the Uranium One Shares under Rule 144 if the other information publicly available regarding Uranium One on the date of resale satisfies the information requirements of Rule 144(c).


         Moreover, unlike EMC Shares which, prior to the effective date of the Arrangement, are traded on NYSE Arca, the Uranium One Shares are not listed for trading on any U.S. exchange or trading market. Accordingly, while Uranium One Shares held by non-affiliates may be freely tradable and those held by affiliates may be traded subject to certain restrictions, there currently is no active trading market in the United States for Uranium One Shares and none is expected to develop in the future. Thus, holders of Uranium One Shares likely will have to rely on Regulation S to trade such shares outside the United States, with the TSX and JSE being the most likely exchanges where such trades will occur. Generally, subject to certain limitations, such trades may be effected through Regulation S under the U.S. Securities Act under the following conditions:

    • the offer or sale is made in an offshore transaction, which, for purposes of this Circular, means the offer is not made to a person in the United States; and either (a) at the time the buy order is originated, the buyer is outside the United States, or the seller and any person acting on its behalf reasonably believe that the buyer is outside the United States; or (b) the transaction is executed in, on or through the facilities of a designated offshore securities market and neither the seller nor any person acting on its behalf knows that the transaction has been pre-arranged with a buyer in the United States. The TSX and JSE are both designated offshore securities markets;

    • no directed selling efforts are made in the United States by the seller, an affiliate, or any person acting on their behalf. "Directed selling efforts" means "any activity undertaken for the purpose of, or that could reasonably be expected to have the effect of, conditioning the market in the United States for any of the securities being offered" in the resale transaction; and

    • in the case of an offer or sale of securities by a person who is an affiliate by virtue of their position as officer or director of Uranium One, no selling concession, fee or other remuneration is paid in connection with such offer or sale, other than the usual and customary broker's commission that would be received by a person executing such transaction as agent. Certain additional restrictions are applicable to persons who are affiliates not solely by virtue of their position as an officer or director of Uranium One.

         Uranium One's assumption of the EMC Options and the Uranium One Shares to be issued thereunder from time to time will not be included in the Registration Statement. Such Uranium One Shares will be issued in reliance upon Rule 903 of Regulation S under the U.S. Securities Act or other available exemptions from registration under the U.S. Securities Act. Uranium One Shares issued to holders outside the United States at a time when Uranium One is a foreign private issuer as defined in Regulation S will be issued free of U.S. Securities Act transfer restrictions, except for customary restrictions on affiliates. Uranium One Shares issued to holders inside the United States will bear a restrictive legend under the U.S. Securities Act and cannot be offered or sold except pursuant to registration under the U.S. Securities Act or an available exemption or exclusion therefrom, which may include Regulation S in the case of sales outside the United States.

         The foregoing discussion is only a general overview of certain requirements of United States securities laws applicable to the Uranium One securities to be received by the EMC Securityholders upon completion of the Arrangement. All holders are urged to consult with counsel to ensure that exercises and resales of their Uranium One securities comply with applicable securities legislation.

         THE URANIUM ONE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN APPROVED OR DISAPPROVED BY THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION, OR THE SECURITIES REGULATORY AUTHORITY OF ANY STATE OR PROVINCE, NOR HAS ANY OF THEM PASSED UPON THE ACCURACY OR ADEQUACY OF THIS CIRCULAR. ANY REPRESENTATION TO THE CONTRARY IS A CRIMINAL OFFENCE.

    CERTAIN CANADIAN FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS

         In the opinion of Stikeman Elliott LLP, counsel to EMC, the following summary describes the principal Canadian federal income tax considerations generally applicable to an EMC Shareholder who, for the purposes of the Tax Act and at all relevant times, (i) holds their EMC Shares, and will hold any Uranium One Shares acquired under the Arrangement, as capital property, (ii) deals at arm's length with both Uranium One and EMC, (iii) is not affiliated with Uranium One or EMC and is not a foreign affiliate of a taxpayer resident in Canada, and (iv) will not, either alone or together with other persons with whom they do not deal at arm's length, either control Uranium One immediately following the Effective Time or beneficially own shares of Uranium One which have a fair market value in excess of 50% of the fair market value of all


    outstanding shares of the capital stock of Uranium One immediately following the Effective Time. EMC Shares and Uranium One Shares will generally be considered to be capital property of an EMC Shareholder unless the EMC Shareholder either holds such shares in the course of carrying on a business or has acquired such shares in a transaction or transactions considered to be an adventure in the nature of trade. Certain EMC Shareholders who are residents of Canada for purposes of the Tax Act and whose EMC Shares or Uranium One Shares might not otherwise qualify as capital property may, in some circumstances, be entitled to make an irrevocable election in accordance with subsection 39(4) of the Tax Act to have such shares and every other "Canadian security" (as defined in the Tax Act) owned by such EMC Shareholder deemed to be capital property in the taxation year of the election and in all subsequent taxation years. EMC Shareholders should consult their own tax advisors for advice with respect to whether an election under subsection 39(4) of the Tax Act is available and advisable in their particular circumstances.


         The following summary also describes the principal Canadian federal income tax considerations generally applicable to certain EMC Optionholders, as described herein, of exchanging their EMC Options for Uranium One Options under the Arrangement. This summary does not address the tax consequences of the Arrangement to any EMC Optionholder other than those described herein and any such EMC Optionholders are strongly cautioned that the Canadian federal income tax consequences to them of the Arrangement may be materially and adversely different than those described in this summary. EMC Optionholders are urged to consult their own tax advisors with respect to the tax consequences to them of the Arrangement in their particular circumstances.

         This summary is based upon the current provisions of the Tax Act, the regulations thereunder (the "Tax Regulations"), and counsel's understanding of the current published administrative and assessing practices of the Canada Revenue Agency (the "CRA"). This summary also takes into account all specific proposals to amend the Tax Act and Tax Regulations publicly announced by or on behalf of the Minister of Finance (Canada) prior to the date hereof (the "Proposed Amendments") and assumes that all Proposed Amendments will be enacted in the form proposed. However, no assurances can be given that the Proposed Amendments will be enacted as proposed, or at all. This summary does not otherwise take into account or anticipate any changes in the law, whether by way of legislative, judicial or governmental action or decision, or changes in the administrative or assessing practices of the CRA. This summary also does not take into account provincial, territorial or foreign tax legislation or considerations, which may be different from those described in this summary.

         This summary is not applicable to an EMC Shareholder (i) that is a "financial institution" for the purposes of the mark-to-market rules contained in the Tax Act, (ii) that is a "specified financial institution" as defined in the Tax Act, (iii) an interest in which is a "tax shelter investment" for the purposes of the Tax Act, or (iv) who acquired his or her EMC Shares upon the exercise of an employee stock option. Any such EMC Shareholder should consult their own tax advisors.

         This summary is of a general nature only and is not exhaustive of all possible Canadian federal income tax considerations and is not intended to be, nor should it be construed to be, legal, business or tax advice or representations to any particular EMC Shareholder. Accordingly, EMC Shareholders are advised and expected to consult with their own tax advisors for advice regarding the income tax consequences to them of exchanging their EMC Shares for Uranium One Shares under the Arrangement, having regard to their own particular circumstances, and any other consequences to them of such transactions under Canadian federal, provincial, local and foreign tax laws.

    EMC Shareholders Resident in Canada

         The following portion of the summary is generally applicable to an EMC Shareholder who, for the purposes of the Tax Act and at all relevant times, is, or is deemed to be, resident in Canada (a "Holder").

    Exchange of EMC Shares for Uranium One Shares

         A Holder who exchanges EMC Shares for Uranium One Shares under the Arrangement will (unless the Holder chooses otherwise, as discussed in the paragraph immediately below) recognize neither a capital gain nor a capital loss as a result of the exchange. Such a Holder will be deemed to have disposed of the Holder's EMC Shares for proceeds of disposition equal to the Holder's adjusted cost base in respect of such EMC Shares immediately before the exchange and to have acquired the Uranium One Shares received on the exchange at a cost equal to such proceeds of disposition (the "Rollover"). The adjusted cost base of Uranium One Shares acquired on the exchange will be determined at any time by averaging the cost of such Uranium One Shares with the adjusted cost base of any other Uranium One Shares owned by the Holder as capital property at that time.

         The Rollover will not apply to any Holder who has, in the Holder's income tax return for the taxation year of the Holder in which the exchange of EMC Shares for Uranium One Shares occurs, chosen to include in computing the Holder's income any portion of the capital gain or capital loss that would otherwise have been realized upon such exchange. In these circumstances, the Holder will realize a capital gain (or capital loss) to the extent that the fair market value of the Uranium One Shares received in exchange for such EMC Shares, net of any reasonable costs of disposition in respect of the exchange,


    exceeds (or is less than) the adjusted cost base to the Holder of such EMC Shares immediately before the exchange. See "Taxation of Capital Gains and Capital Losses" below for a general discussion of the treatment of capital gains and capital losses under the Tax Act. The cost of Uranium One Shares acquired by a Holder in these circumstances will be the fair market value of the Uranium One Shares at the time of their acquisition. The adjusted cost base of such Uranium One Shares will be determined at any time by averaging the cost of such shares with the adjusted cost base of all other Uranium One Shares owned by the Holder as capital property at that time.

    Dividends on Uranium One Shares

         In the case of a Holder who is an individual, dividends received or deemed to be received on a Uranium One Share acquired by the Holder under the Arrangement will be included in the Holder's income and will be subject to the gross-up and dividend tax credit rules normally applicable to taxable dividends received from taxable Canadian corporations. A Holder that is a corporation will include such dividends in computing its income and generally will be entitled to deduct the amount of such dividends in computing its taxable income. Recent changes to the Tax Act enhance the gross-up and dividend tax credit for "eligible dividends". A dividend is eligible for the enhanced gross-up and dividend tax credit if the paying corporation designates the dividend as an eligible dividend. There may be limitations on the ability of a corporation to designate dividends as eligible dividends. Taxable dividends received by an individual may give rise to alternative minimum tax under the Tax Act, depending on the individual's circumstances.

         A Holder that is a "private corporation" (as defined in the Tax Act) or any other corporation resident in Canada and controlled or deemed to be controlled by or for the benefit of an individual (other than a trust) or a related group of individuals (other than trusts) may be liable under Part IV of the Tax Act to pay a refundable tax of 33 1 / 3 % on dividends received or deemed to be received on a Uranium One Share to the extent such dividends are deductible in computing the Holder's taxable income. A Holder that is, throughout the relevant taxation year, a "Canadian-controlled private corporation" (as defined in the Tax Act) may be liable to pay an additional refundable tax of 6 2 / 3 % on dividends or deemed dividends that are not deductible in computing taxable income.

    Disposition of Uranium One Shares

         A Holder who disposes or is deemed to dispose of Uranium One Shares will realize a capital gain (or capital loss) equal to the amount by which the actual or deemed proceeds of disposition, net of any reasonable costs of disposition, exceed (or are less than) the adjusted cost base of the Uranium One Shares at such time. See "Taxation of Capital Gains and Capital Losses" below for a general discussion of the treatment of capital gains and capital losses under the Tax Act.

    Dissenting EMC Shareholders

         A Holder that is a Dissenting EMC Shareholder (a "Resident Dissenter") and is ultimately entitled to receive a cash payment from EMC equal to the fair value of the EMC Shares in respect of which they dissent will be deemed under the Arrangement to have transferred such EMC Shares to EMC for cancellation on the Effective Date. Under such circumstances, the Resident Dissenter will be deemed, under the Tax Act, to have received a dividend on such EMC Shares (subject to the potential application of subsection 55(2) of the Tax Act to Resident Dissenters that are corporations, as discussed below) equal to the amount by which the cash payment (excluding any interest awarded by a court) exceeds the paid-up capital of the EMC Shares for the purposes of the Tax Act. The consequences to a Resident Dissenter of being deemed to have received a dividend on a EMC Share will generally be similar to those described above under the heading "Dividends on Uranium One Shares". The difference between the cash payment and the amount of the deemed dividend would be treated as proceeds of disposition of the EMC Shares for the purposes of computing any capital gain or capital loss arising on the disposition thereof. See "Taxation of Capital Gains and Capital Losses" below for a general discussion of the treatment of capital gains and losses under the Tax Act.

         Subsection 55(2) of the Tax Act provides that where a Resident Dissenter that is a corporation is deemed to receive a dividend under the circumstances described above, all or part of the deemed dividend may be deemed not to be a dividend and may be treated instead as proceeds of disposition of the EMC Shares for the purposes of computing the Resident


    Dissenter's capital gain on the disposition of such shares. Accordingly, Resident Dissenters that are corporations should consult their own tax advisors for specific advice with respect to the potential application of this provision to them.

         Any interest awarded to a Resident Dissenter consequent on the exercise of Dissent Rights under the Arrangement will be included in computing the Resident Dissenter's income for purposes of the Tax Act.

         Holders who are considering exercising Dissent Rights in connection with the Arrangement are urged to consult with their tax advisors with respect to the tax consequences of such action.

    Taxation of Capital Gains and Capital Losses

         One-half of any capital gain (a "taxable capital gain") realized by a Holder in a taxation year will be included in the Holder's income in the year of disposition and one-half of the amount of any capital loss (an "allowable capital loss") realized by a Holder in a taxation year will be required to be deducted from taxable capital gains realized by the Holder in such year. Allowable capital losses not deducted in the taxation year in which they are realized may ordinarily be carried back and deducted in any of the three preceding taxation years or carried forward and deducted in any subsequent year against net taxable capital gains realized in such years, to the extent and under the circumstances specified in the Tax Act.

         Capital gains realized by an individual or trust, other than certain specified trusts, may give rise to "alternative minimum tax" under the Tax Act. A Holder that is, throughout the relevant taxation year, a "Canadian-controlled private corporation" (as defined in the Tax Act) may be liable to pay an additional refundable tax of 6 2 / 3 % on certain investment income, which includes taxable capital gains.

         The amount of any capital loss otherwise realized on a disposition of EMC Shares or Uranium One Shares by a Holder that is a corporation or certain partnerships or trusts may be reduced in certain circumstances in respect of dividends previously received or deemed to have been received on such shares to the extent and under the circumstances prescribed in the Tax Act. Holders to whom these rules may be relevant should consult their own tax advisors.

    Eligibility for Investment

         Provided the Uranium One Shares are listed on a prescribed stock exchange (which currently includes the TSX and the JSE), the Uranium One Shares will be qualified investments under the Tax Act and the regulations thereunder for trusts governed by registered retirement savings plans ("RRSPs"), registered retirement income funds ("RRIFs"), deferred profit sharing plans ("DPSPs") and registered education savings plans ("RESPs").

    EMC Optionholders Resident in Canada

         The following portion of this summary is applicable to an EMC Optionholder who (i) for the purposes of the Tax Act and at all relevant times, is, or is deemed to be, resident in Canada, (ii) is a current or former employee of EMC or a Subsidiary of EMC, (iii) deals, and at all relevant times has dealt, at arm's length with EMC and any such Subsidiary for the purposes of the Tax Act, and (iv) received their EMC Options in respect of, in the course of, or by virtue of, such employment and at a time when EMC was not a "Canadian-controlled private corporation" within the meaning of the Tax Act (a "Resident Optionholder").

         The terms of the Arrangement provide that EMC Options that are not exercised prior to the Effective Time will be exchanged for Uranium One Options at the Effective Time. A Resident Optionholder whose EMC Options are exchanged solely for Uranium One Options under the Arrangement will not be considered to have disposed of the EMC Options and therefore will not realize income on the exchange, provided that (a) the total value immediately after the exchange of the Uranium One Shares that the Resident Optionholder is entitled to acquire under the Uranium One Options received by the Resident Optionholder under the Arrangement less the total amount payable, if any, by the Resident Optionholder to acquire such Uranium One Shares, does not exceed (b) the total value immediately before the exchange of the EMC Shares that the Resident Optionholder was entitled to acquire under the EMC Options exchanged by the Resident Optionholder under the Arrangement less the amount payable, if any, by the Resident Optionholder to acquire such EMC Shares.


    EMC Shareholders Not Resident in Canada

         The following portion of the summary is generally applicable to an EMC Shareholder who, for the purposes of the Tax Act and at all relevant times, (i) has not been, is not and will not be resident or deemed to be resident in Canada, and (ii) does not and will not use or hold, and is not and will not be deemed to use or hold, EMC Shares or Uranium One Shares in connection with carrying on a business in Canada (a "Non-Resident Holder"). Special rules which are not discussed in this summary may apply to a non-resident that is an insurer carrying on business in Canada and elsewhere.

    Exchange of EMC Shares and Subsequent Disposition of Uranium One Shares

         A Non-Resident Holder will not be subject to tax under the Tax Act on any capital gain realized on the disposition of EMC Shares under the Arrangement unless such EMC Shares constitute "taxable Canadian property" (as defined in the Tax Act) to the Non-Resident Holder at the Effective Time and any such gain is not otherwise exempt from tax under the Tax Act pursuant to the provisions of an applicable income tax treaty or convention.

         Similarly, any capital gain realized by a Non-Resident Holder on a disposition or deemed disposition of Uranium One Shares acquired by the Non-Resident Holder under the Arrangement will not be subject to tax under the Tax Act unless such Uranium One Shares constitute taxable Canadian property to the Non-Resident Holder at the time of disposition and any such gain is not otherwise exempt from tax under the Tax Act pursuant to the provisions of an applicable income tax treaty or convention.

         Generally, an EMC Share or Uranium One Share, as the case may be, will not constitute taxable Canadian property to a Non-Resident Holder at a particular time provided that (i) such EMC Share or Uranium One Share, as the case may be, is listed on a prescribed stock exchange (which currently includes the TSX, the NYSE and the JSE) at that time, and (ii) the Non-Resident Holder, persons with whom the Non-Resident Holder does not deal at arm's length, or the Non-Resident Holder together with all such persons, has not or have not owned 25% or more of the shares of any class or series of the capital stock of EMC or Uranium One, as the case may be, at any time during the 60-month period that ends at that time. Notwithstanding the foregoing, an EMC Share or Uranium One Share, as the case may be, may also be deemed to be taxable Canadian property to a Non-Resident Holder in certain circumstances specified in the Tax Act.

         If an EMC Share constitutes taxable Canadian property to a Non-Resident Holder and any capital gain that would be realized by the Non-Resident Holder upon a disposition of such EMC Share under the Arrangement is not exempt from tax under the Tax Act by virtue of an applicable income tax treaty or convention, then the tax consequences described above under "— EMC Shareholders Resident in Canada — Exchange of EMC Shares for Uranium One Shares", and "— EMC Shareholders Resident in Canada — Taxation of Capital Gains and Capital Losses" will generally apply. If an EMC Share constitutes taxable Canadian property to a Non-Resident Holder, then the Uranium One Shares received by the Non-Resident Holder in exchange for such EMC Share under the Arrangement will be deemed to be taxable Canadian property to the NonResident Holder.

         If a Uranium One Share received by a Non-Resident Holder under the Arrangement constitutes taxable Canadian property to the Non-Resident Holder and any capital gain that would be realized by the Non-Resident Holder upon a disposition or deemed disposition of such Uranium One Share is not exempt from tax under the Tax Act by virtue of an applicable income tax treaty or convention, then the tax consequences described above under "— EMC Shareholders Resident in Canada — Disposition of Uranium One Shares" and "— EMC Shareholders Resident in Canada — Taxation of Capital Gains and Capital Losses" will generally apply.

    Dividends on Uranium One Shares

         Dividends on Uranium One Shares paid or credited or deemed to be paid or credited to a Non-Resident Holder will be subject to Canadian withholding tax under the Tax Act at the rate of 25% unless the rate is reduced under the provisions of an applicable income tax treaty or convention.


    Dissenting Non-Resident Holders

         A Non-Resident Holder that is a Dissenting EMC Shareholder (a "Non-Resident Dissenter") and is ultimately entitled to receive a cash payment from EMC equal to the fair value of the EMC Shares in respect of which they dissent will be deemed under the Arrangement to have transferred such EMC Shares to EMC for cancellation on the Effective Date. Under such circumstances, the Non-Resident Dissenter will be deemed to have received a dividend on such EMC Shares equal to the amount by which the cash payment (excluding any interest awarded by a court) exceeds the paid-up capital of the shares for the purposes of the Tax Act. Dividends deemed to have been received by a Non-Resident Dissenter in these circumstances will be subject to Canadian withholding tax under the Tax Act at the rate of 25% unless the rate is reduced under the provisions of an applicable income tax treaty or convention. The difference between the cash payment and the amount of the deemed dividend would be treated as proceeds of disposition of the EMC Shares for the purposes of computing any capital gain or capital loss arising on the disposition thereof. A Non-Resident Dissenter will not be subject to tax under the Tax Act in respect of any resulting capital gain unless the EMC Shares constitute taxable Canadian property to the NonResident Dissenter and any such capital gain is not otherwise exempt from tax under the Tax Act pursuant to the provisions of an applicable income tax treaty or convention.

         Where a Non-Resident Dissenter receives interest consequent upon the exercise of Dissent Rights under the Arrangement, such interest will be subject to Canadian withholding tax at a rate of 25% unless the rate is reduced under the provisions of an applicable income tax treaty or convention.

         Non-Resident Holders who are considering exercising Dissent Rights are urged to consult with their tax advisors regarding the tax consequences to them of such action.

    EMC Optionholders Not Resident in Canada

         The following portion of this summary is applicable to an EMC Optionholder who, for the purposes of the Tax Act and at all relevant times, (i) has not been, is not and will not be resident or deemed to be resident in Canada and (ii) does not, will not and will not be deemed to use or hold EMC Options or Uranium One Options in carrying on a business in Canada (a "Non-Resident Optionholder").

         A Non-Resident Optionholder who is generally subject to Canadian income tax with respect to employment benefits relating to EMC Options will not be required to report any income for Canadian federal income tax purposes as a result of the exchange of EMC Options solely for Uranium One Options under the Arrangement provided that (a) the total value immediately after the exchange of the Uranium One Shares that the Non-Resident Optionholder is entitled to acquire under the Uranium One Options received by the Non-Resident Optionholder under the Arrangement less the total amount payable, if any, by the Non-Resident Optionholder to acquire such Uranium One Shares, does not exceed (b) the total value immediately before the exchange of the EMC Shares that the Non-Resident Optionholder was entitled to acquire under the EMC Options exchanged by the Non-Resident Optionholder under the Arrangement less the amount payable, if any, by the Non-Resident Optionholder to acquire such EMC Shares.

         A Non-Resident Optionholder not described in the immediately preceding paragraph will generally not be subject to tax under the Tax Act on any gain realized on the exchange of EMC Options for Uranium One Options under the Arrangement unless such EMC Options constitute "taxable Canadian property" (as defined in the Tax Act) to the NonResident Optionholder at the Effective Time and any such gain is not otherwise exempt from tax under the Tax Act pursuant to the provisions of an applicable income tax treaty or convention. Generally, an EMC Option will not be taxable Canadian property to a Non-Resident Optionholder at the Effective Time provided that (i) the EMC Shares are listed on a prescribed stock exchange (which includes the TSX and NYSE) at that time and (ii) the Non-Resident Optionholder, persons with whom the Non-Resident Optionholder does not deal at arm's length, or the Non-Resident Optionholder together with all such persons, has not or have not owned 25% or more of the issued shares of any class or series of the capital stock of EMC at any time during the 60-month period that ends at that time.

    CERTAIN U.S. TAX CONSIDERATIONS FOR U.S. EMC SECURITYHOLDERS

    Circular 230 Disclosure


         Any tax statement made herein regarding any U.S. federal tax is not intended or written to be used, and cannot be used, by any taxpayer for purposes of avoiding any tax penalties. Any such statement herein is written in connection with the marketing or promotion of the transaction to which the statement relates. Each taxpayer should seek advice based on the taxpayer's particular circumstances from an independent tax advisor.

    Introduction

         In the opinion of Davis Wright Tremaine LLP, U.S. counsel to EMC, the following summary describes the principal U.S. federal income tax considerations with respect to the Arrangement applicable to "U.S. Holders" (as defined below). This summary is based upon the Code, the regulations promulgated under the Code (the "Regulations"), proposed or temporary regulations promulgated under the Code (the "Proposed Regulations"), the legislative history of the Code, the United States-Canada Tax Convention of 1980, as amended by various Protocols (the "Treaty"), judicial decisions, and administrative rulings and pronouncements of the Internal Revenue Service (the "IRS"), all as they are now in effect. This summary does not take into account potential changes in the Code, Regulations, Proposed Regulations, Treaty, future judicial decisions or future administrative pronouncements, any of which may have retroactive effect and may significantly affect the U.S. tax consequences to U.S. Holders.

         This summary does not address all potentially relevant federal income tax matters to a U.S. Holder. This summary does not address the U.S. tax consequences to, and the term "U.S. Holder" does not include, persons subject to specific provisions of U.S. federal income tax law, including but not limited to tax-exempt organizations, qualified retirement plans, individual retirement accounts and other tax-deferred accounts, financial institutions, insurance companies, real estate investment trusts, regulated investment companies, broker-dealers, non-resident alien individuals, persons or entities that have a "functional currency" other than the U.S. dollar, persons who hold EMC Securities as part of a straddle, hedging or a conversion transaction, and persons who acquired their EMC Securities as compensation for services. This summary is limited to U.S. Holders who own EMC Securities as capital assets and who hold the EMC Securities directly (e.g., not through an intermediary entity such as a corporation, partnership, limited liability company, or trust).

         This summary does not address U.S. alternative minimum tax considerations that may be applicable to a U.S. holder. In addition, this summary does not cover any state, local or foreign tax consequences of the Arrangement to a U.S. Holder.

         The opinion of Davis Wright Tremaine LLP relies on certain representations made by Uranium One and EMC, is based on certain assumptions and is subject to the limitations and qualifications set forth in this summary. These representations are made as of the date of this Circular, the Effective Time, and after the Effective Time, where relevant. The assumptions on which the opinion is based include that there are no changes in existing facts and law, that the Arrangement is completed in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Combination Agreement and the Plan of Arrangement and in the manner described in this Circular, and that any representation made "to the knowledge of" the officers of Uranium One and EMC, or with similar qualification, is true and correct without regard to such qualification. If any of these representations or assumptions is not correct, the opinion cannot be relied upon and the U.S. federal income tax consequences to U.S. Holders of the Arrangement and of the ownership and disposition of Uranium One Shares received pursuant to the Arrangement could differ significantly and adversely from those described in this summary. Moreover, the opinion of U.S. tax counsel is not binding on the IRS or the U.S. courts, and no assurance can be provided that the conclusions reached in this legal opinion will not be challenged by the IRS or will be sustained by a U.S. court if so challenged. EMC has not requested, and does not intend to request, a ruling from the IRS regarding any of the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Arrangement or the ownership and disposition of Uranium One Shares received pursuant to the Arrangement.

         The discussion contained herein is of a general nature only and is not intended to constitute a complete analysis of the U.S. tax consequences of the Arrangement and should not be interpreted as legal or tax advice to any U.S. Holder, as U.S. tax consequences may vary depending upon the U.S. Holder's particular circumstances. Each U.S. Holder should obtain advice from his, her or its own tax advisor as to the U.S. federal, state, local, and non-U.S. tax consequences and tax reporting requirements resulting from the Arrangement.


    U.S. Holders

         As used herein, a "U.S. Holder" means an EMC Securityholder or a Uranium One Shareholder who is (i) a citizen or individual resident (as defined under U.S. tax laws) of the United States; (ii) a corporation created or organized in or under the laws of the United States or of any political subdivision thereof; (iii) an estate, the income of which is taxable in the United States irrespective of source; or (iv) a trust if (a) a court within the United States is able to exercise primary supervision over the trust's administration and one or more U.S. persons have the authority to control all of its substantial decisions or (b) the trust was in existence on August 20, 1996, and has properly elected to continue to be treated as a U.S. person.

    Taxation of the Exchange to U.S. Holders

    EMC Shareholders

      (a) Qualification as a Reorganization under Section 368 of the Code

         Section 368 of the Code describes certain corporate transactions that qualify as a "reorganization" under the U.S. federal income tax laws. Qualification as a reorganization normally results in nonrecognition treatment for shareholders that exchange their shares for shares of another corporation that is a party to the reorganization. Section 368(a)(1)(B) of the Code provides that the acquisition of the shares of one corporation (the "acquiring corporation"), in exchange solely for all or a part of the voting stock of another corporation (the "target corporation"), qualifies as a reorganization under Section 368 of the Code, if immediately after the exchange the acquiring corporation has control of the target corporation.

         The exchange of EMC Shares for Uranium One Shares should qualify as a reorganization under Section 368(a)(1)(B) of the Code, because the EMC Shareholders will receive solely voting stock of Uranium One and Uranium One will be in control of EMC immediately after the exchange. Subject to the application of Code Section 367 and the PFIC rules, both discussed below, assuming the exchange of EMC Shares for Uranium One Shares pursuant to the Arrangement qualifies as a tax deferred reorganization, and subject to the discussion contained below, U.S. EMC Shareholders will not recognize gain or loss as a result of the Arrangement, EMC Shareholders will hold their Uranium One Shares with an adjusted basis equal to their adjusted basis in their EMC Shares and their holding period for their Uranium One Shares will include their holding period for their EMC Shares.

      (b) Section 367 of the Code

         Section 367 of the Code imposes certain conditions for U.S. persons to obtain the tax-free treatment under a Section 368(a)(1)(B) share exchange, where stock of a foreign corporation is exchanged for stock of another foreign corporation. Section 367 of the Code requires that any U.S. Holder who owns, directly or indirectly, 5% or more of the stock (by vote or value) of Uranium One (a "5% shareholder") immediately after the Arrangement must enter into a "gain recognition agreement" with the IRS in order to defer recognizing gain on the Arrangement. If the 5% shareholder does not enter into such an agreement, gain is required to be recognized by a U.S. Holder even if the Arrangement qualifies as a reorganization and gain is not otherwise required to be recognized. U.S. Holders who are not 5% shareholders may be required to satisfy certain reporting requirements imposed by the Regulations promulgated under Section 367 of the Code.

      (c) PFIC Rules
         
      (i) In General

         U.S. tax law contains rules that classify certain foreign corporations as "passive foreign investment companies" ("PFICs"). If 75% or more of a foreign corporation's gross income consists of certain types of passive income (as defined for U.S. federal income tax purposes), or if 50% or more of the average value of all assets held by the corporation during the


    taxable year consists of passive assets (generally, assets that generate passive income), the PFIC rules apply to the corporation's U.S. shareholders.

         Based on current financial and business projections, EMC believes that it may be a PFIC for the current tax year and that it may have been a PFIC in prior tax years. No determination has been made as to whether Uranium One or the Combined Company is, or will be, a PFIC for the current taxable year. The determination of whether a corporation is a PFIC for a taxable year depends, in part, on the application of complex U.S. federal income tax rules, which are subject to differing interpretations. In addition, whether a corporation is a PFIC for this current taxable year depends on the assets and income of the corporation over the course of such taxable year and, as a result, cannot be predicted with certainty for taxable years that have not ended as of the date of this Circular. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the IRS will not challenge any determination concerning a corporation's status as a PFIC during any taxable year.

      (ii) Impact of PFIC Rules

         The U.S. federal income tax consequences to a U.S. Holder of a PFIC depend on whether a "qualified electing fund" ("QEF") election or a mark-to-market election has been made. A U.S. Holder who has made a timely QEF election is referred to in this summary as an "Electing Shareholder," and a U.S. Holder who has not made a timely QEF election is referred to as a "Non-Electing Shareholder."

         Under Section 1291 of the Code, PFIC treatment without a QEF election generally results in a loss of preferential capital gain treatment on disposition of shares in the PFIC and an increased liability on such gain and on certain distributions due to an interest charge on the tax (to reflect the deferral of U.S. tax as earnings or appreciation arose with respect to the stock). A QEF election results in current U.S. taxation of a shareholder's pro rata portion of the corporation's income and gain, whether or not the corporation makes distributions. In order for a U.S. Holder to make a QEF election, the corporation must provide certain annual statements to the U.S. Holder that either (a) states the U.S. Holder's pro rata shares of the ordinary earnings and net capital gain of the corporation, (b) provides sufficient information to enable the U.S. Holder to calculate its pro rata shares of the corporation's ordinary earnings and net capital gain, or (c) states that the corporation has permitted the U.S. Holder to examine the books of account, records, and other documents of the corporation for the U.S. Holder to calculate the amounts of the corporation's ordinary earnings and the net capital gain, and to calculate the U.S. Holder's pro rata shares of the corporation's ordinary earnings and net capital gain. EMC will provide such annual statements for the tax year ended December 31, 2006 to U.S. Holders that so request. Uranium One has advised EMC that if the Arrangement is consummated, Uranium One shall cause EMC to provide such annual statement for the tax year ended December 31, 2006, to U.S. Holders that so request.

      (iii) Electing Shareholders

         The Proposed Regulations provide that an Electing Shareholder does not recognize gain in a transaction that otherwise qualifies as a reorganization. Thus, assuming the Arrangement qualifies as a reorganization, a U.S. Holder who is an Electing Shareholder should not recognize gain under the PFIC rules as a result of the Arrangement.

      (iv) Non-Electing Shareholders

         The Proposed Regulations provide that a Non-Electing Shareholder is required to recognize gain on disposition of PFIC stock in a transaction that otherwise qualifies as a reorganization unless the Non-Electing Shareholder receives in the exchange stock of another corporation that is classified as a PFIC for the taxable year that includes the day after the Arrangement is effective. This nonrecognition treatment is subject to the Non-Electing Shareholder satisfying certain requirements described in the Proposed Regulations.

         As noted above, EMC believes it may be a PFIC for the current tax year and may have been a PFIC in prior years. No determination has been made as to whether Uranium One or the Combined Company is, or will be, a PFIC for the current tax year. If EMC is or has been a PFIC and Uranium One is not classified as a PFIC for its taxable year that includes the day after the Arrangement, a Non-Electing Shareholder of EMC will be required to recognize gain (but not loss) as a result of the Arrangement, (regardless of whether the Arrangement qualifies as a reorganization) in an amount equal to the difference


    between (i) the fair market value of the Uranium One Shares received by the U.S. Holder pursuant to the Arrangement and (ii) the adjusted tax basis of such U.S. Holder in his, her or its EMC Securities exchanged therefor. Under the PFIC rules, the gain is (i) allocated pro rata over a Non-Electing Shareholder's holding period, (ii) subject to tax at the highest rate applicable to ordinary income in the year to which it is allocated if during that year EMC was a PFIC; and (iii) the tax due will be increased by a deemed interest charge on the tax applicable to that income.

      (v) Mark-to-Market Election

         U.S. Holders who own marketable stock of a PFIC annually may elect to mark such stock to the market (a "mark-to-market election"). This requires the U.S. person to include in income each year as ordinary income an amount equal to the increase in value of his, her or its shares for that year or to claim a deduction for any decrease in value (but only to the extent of previous mark-to-market gains). If such an election is timely made, such U.S. Holder will generally be treated as an Electing Shareholder and will not be subject to the taxation rules of Section 1291 discussed above for Non-Electing Shareholders. To the extent the mark-to-market election is made by a Non-Electing Shareholder after the beginning of the holding period for the PFIC stock, the Section 1291 rules apply to certain dispositions of, distributions on, and other amounts taxable with respect to, the PFIC stock.

      (vi) Deemed Sale Election

         A U.S. Holder who did not originally make a QEF election may qualify as an Electing Shareholder by filing, on a timely filed U.S. income tax return (including extensions), a deemed sale election under which the shareholder recognizes any gain that he, she or it would otherwise recognize under the rules of Section 1291 of the Code if the U.S. Holder had sold his stock on the qualification date. The qualification date is the first day that the corporation qualified as a QEF with respect to such U.S. Holder.

         The PFIC rules are complex and subject to interpretation. Due to the complexity of the PFIC rules, U.S. Holders are strongly urged to consult their own tax advisors concerning the impact of these rules on their investments and the consequences and reporting requirements resulting from the Arrangement. In addition, U.S. Holders should consult with their tax advisors regarding the elections that are available to them, including, without limitation, a QEF election, a deemed sale election, and a mark-to-market election, and whether such elections are advantageous.

    EMC Optionholders

         As part of the Arrangement, the unexercised EMC Options will be exchanged solely for Uranium One Options. Although the exchange of EMC Options occurs as part of the Arrangement, these exchanges should not be considered to be part of the stock-for-stock exchange that qualifies as a reorganization. Therefore, the exchange of EMC Options for Uranium One Options should not jeopardize the Arrangement from qualifying as a reorganization under Section 368(a)(1)(B) of the Code.

         The rules governing PFICs described above can have significant adverse tax effects on U.S. EMC Optionholders that are treated as owning EMC Shares under U.S. tax law. Under Proposed Regulations, if a U.S. person has any equity interest in a PFIC, including an option or right to acquire shares of a PFIC, such U.S. person is treated for certain purposes as owning shares of the PFIC ("PFIC equity interests"). PFIC equity interests held by a U.S. person will be treated as stock in a PFIC if, at any time during the holding period of such U.S. person, the company was a PFIC. The application of the PFIC rules to options and rights to acquire stock is unclear, and the IRS has not provided specific guidance on this matter. IT IS POSSIBLE THEREFORE THAT U.S. EMC OPTIONHOLDERS, AS WELL AS U.S. EMC SHAREHOLDERS, MAY SUFFER CERTAIN ADVERSE U.S. TAX CONSEQUENCES AS A RESULT OF THE ARRANGEMENT IF EMC WAS A PFIC FOR ANY TAXABLE YEAR DURING ANY PART OF WHICH SUCH PERSONS HELD THEIR INVESTMENTS IN EMC. ACCORDINGLY, U.S. EMC OPTIONHOLDERS SHOULD CONSIDER SUCH POTENTIAL ADVERSE CONSEQUENCES AS DESCRIBED ABOVE FOR NON-ELECTING SHAREHOLDERS.


    Status of Proposed Regulations

         The Proposed Regulations state that they are to be effective for transactions occurring on or after April 1, 1992. The discussion set forth above is based on the Proposed Regulations in their current form. The Proposed Regulations, however, have not yet been adopted in final form and may never adopted, or may be substantially changed prior to their adoption.

    U.S. Tax Considerations of Owning Uranium One Shares

         The U.S. federal income tax considerations of owning Uranium One Shares are generally described below. The discussion is not comprehensive and covers only some of the tax considerations. The tax consequences may differ depending on the particular circumstances of each Uranium One Shareholder. U.S. Holders are strongly advised to consult their own tax and legal advisors with respect to the U.S. federal tax consequences of owning Uranium One Shares.

    Distributions on Uranium One Shares

      (a) General Taxation of Distributions

         A U.S. Holder that receives a distribution, including a constructive distribution, with respect to Uranium One Shares will be required to include the amount of such distribution in gross income as ordinary income (without reduction for any Canadian income tax withheld from such distribution) to the extent, if any, of the current or accumulated "earnings and profits" of Uranium One. To the extent that a distribution exceeds the current and accumulated "earnings and profits" of Uranium One, such distribution will be treated (1) first, as a tax-free return of capital to the extent of the U.S. Holder's adjusted basis in the Uranium One Shares and, (2) thereafter, as gain from the sale or exchange of such shares. (See more detailed discussion at "Disposition of Uranium One Shares" below).

      (b) Reduced Tax Rates for Certain Dividends

         For taxable years beginning before January 1, 2011, a dividend paid by a non-U.S. corporation generally will be taxed at the preferential tax rates applicable to long-term capital gains if (a) the corporation is a "qualified foreign corporation" ("QFC") (as defined below), (b) the U.S. Holder receiving such dividend is an individual, estate, or trust, and (c) such dividend is paid on shares that have been held by such U.S. Holder for at least 61 days during the 121-day period beginning 60 days before the "ex-dividend date" (i.e., the first date that a purchaser of such shares will not be entitled to receive such dividend).

         Uranium One generally will be a QFC if it is eligible for the benefits of the Treaty and is not a PFIC (as defined above) for the taxable year during which Uranium One pays a dividend or for the preceding taxable year. As discussed above, it is uncertain whether Uranium One is or will in the future be a PFIC. Accordingly, it is uncertain whether Uranium One is a QFC and there can be no assurance that Uranium One will be a QFC in any future taxable years.

         Subject to application of the PFIC rules (discussed above), if Uranium One is not a QFC, a dividend paid by Uranium One to a U.S. Holder, including a U.S. Holder that is an individual, estate, or trust, generally will be taxed at ordinary income tax rates (and not at the preferential tax rates applicable to long-term capital gains).

      (c) Distributions Paid in Non-U.S. Currency

         The amount of a distribution paid in currency other than U.S. dollars generally will be equal to the U.S. dollar value of such distribution based on the exchange rate applicable on the date of receipt. A U.S. Holder that does not convert foreign currency received as a distribution into U.S. dollars on the date of receipt generally will have a tax basis in such non-U.S. currency equal to the U.S. dollar value of such non-U.S. currency on the date of receipt. Such a U.S. Holder generally will recognize ordinary income or loss on the subsequent sale or other taxable disposition of such non-U.S. currency (including an exchange for U.S. dollars).



      (d) Dividends-Received Deduction

         Dividends paid on Uranium One Shares generally will not be eligible for the "dividends-received deduction." The availability of the dividends-received deduction is subject to complex limitations that are beyond the scope of this discussion, and a U.S. Holder that is a corporation should consult its own financial advisor, legal counsel, or accountant regarding the dividends received deduction.

    Disposition of Uranium One Shares

         Subject to application of the PFIC rules (discussed above), a U.S. Holder will recognize gain or loss on the sale or other taxable disposition of Uranium One Shares in an amount equal to the difference, if any, between (a) the amount of cash plus the fair market value of any property received and (b) such U.S. Holder's adjusted basis in the Uranium One Shares sold or otherwise disposed of. If the PFIC rules do not apply, any such gain or loss generally will be capital gain or loss, which will be long-term capital gain or loss if the Uranium One Shares were held for more than one year at the time of the sale or other disposition.

         Preferential tax rates apply to long-term capital gains of a U.S. Holder that is an individual, estate, or trust. There are currently no preferential tax rates for long-term capital gains of a U.S. Holder that is a corporation. Deductions for capital losses are subject to significant limitations. For a U.S. Holder that is an individual, estate, or trust, capital losses may be used to offset capital gains and up to $3,000 of ordinary income in a taxable year. An unused capital loss of a U.S. Holder that is an individual, estate, or trust generally may be carried forward to subsequent taxable years, until such net capital loss is exhausted. For a U.S. Holder that is a corporation, capital losses may be used to offset only capital gains, and an unused capital loss generally may be carried back three years and carried forward five years from the year in which the capital loss is recognized.

    Foreign Tax Credit

         A U.S. Holder who pays (whether directly or through withholding) Canadian or other foreign income tax with respect to Uranium One Shares generally will be entitled, at the election of such U.S. Holder, to receive either a deduction or a credit for the Canadian or other foreign income tax paid. Subject to the limitations described below, a credit generally will reduce a U.S. Holder's U.S. federal income tax liability on a dollar-for-dollar basis, whereas a deduction will reduce a U.S. Holder's income subject to U.S. federal income tax. This election is made on a year-by-year basis and applies to all foreign taxes paid (whether directly or through withholding) by a U.S. Holder during a year.

         Complex limitations apply to the foreign tax credit, including the general limitation that the credit cannot exceed that portion of a U.S. Holder's U.S. federal income tax liability that such U.S. Holder's "foreign source" taxable income bears to such U.S. Holder's worldwide taxable income. In applying this limitation, a U.S. Holder's various items of income and deduction must be classified, as either "foreign source" or "U.S. source." In addition, this limitation is calculated separately with respect to "passive income" and "general category income" — that is, income other than "passive income." Dividends paid by Uranium One generally will constitute "foreign-source" income and be classified as "passive income." Distributions with respect to Uranium One Shares in excess of Uranium One's current and accumulated earnings and profits, as well as any gain recognized on disposition of Uranium One Shares, would not constitute foreign-source income (subject to application of the Treaty), and a U.S. Holder would not be able to use the foreign tax credit arising from any Canadian withholding tax imposed on such distribution unless the credit could be applied (subject to applicable limitations) against U.S. tax due on other foreign-source income in the appropriate category. In addition, a U.S. Holder that is a "C" corporation and that owns 10% or more of the voting stock of Uranium One may, subject to a number of limitations, be entitled to an "indirect" foreign tax credit under Section 902 of the Code with respect to dividends paid by Uranium One. The foreign tax credit rules are complex, and each U.S. Holder should consult its own financial advisor, legal counsel, or accountant regarding their application to the U.S. Holder's particular circumstances.


    Information Reporting; Backup Withholding

         Payments of dividends on, and proceeds arising from certain sales or other taxable dispositions of, Uranium One Shares generally will be subject to information reporting and backup withholding tax rules discussed below.

    Passive Foreign Investment Company

         EMC does not know whether or not Uranium One is (or may become in a future year) a PFIC. If Uranium One were a PFIC, U.S. Holders may be subject to the PFIC rules discussed above.

    Withholding

         Backup withholding (currently at the rate of 28%) may be imposed on an EMC Shareholder under the Arrangement and on payments of dividends made as a result of certain sales or other taxable dispositions of Uranium One Shares, unless the holder is eligible for an exception or provides the exchange agent an IRS Form W-9. Any amounts withheld under these rules will be allowed as a refund or credit against the U.S. Holder's U.S. federal income tax liability provided required information is furnished to the IRS. Each U.S. Holder should consult its own financial advisor, legal counsel, or accountant regarding the information reporting and backup withholding tax rules.

    Uncertainty Regarding U.S. Tax Consequences

         U.S. tax consequences of the Arrangement to U.S. Holders are dependent upon a number of provisions of the Code, the application and interpretation of which are subject to considerable uncertainty. With respect to a number of these provisions there is either no guidance or the guidance that is available is either incomplete or contradictory. Accordingly, notwithstanding the efforts of EMC and Uranium One and their U.S. Holders to comply with applicable U.S. tax law, the federal income tax return of U.S. Holders may be audited and such U.S. Holders may be required to file amended returns and may be subject to assessments by the IRS for additional taxes, interest and penalties.

         THE FOREGOING SUMMARY OF CERTAIN U.S. INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES IS INCLUDED FOR GENERAL INFORMATION ONLY AND DOES NOT CONSTITUTE LEGAL ADVICE TO ANY EMC SECURITYHOLDER. BECAUSE INDIVIDUAL CIRCUMSTANCES MAY DIFFER, EACH BENEFICIAL U.S. HOLDER IS URGED TO CONSULT HIS, HER, OR ITS OWN TAX ADVISOR AS TO THE PARTICULAR TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE ARRANGEMENT, INCLUDING THE APPLICATION AND EFFECT OF U.S. FEDERAL, STATE, LOCAL, FOREIGN AND OTHER TAX LAWS.

    REGULATORY MATTERS

         The following sets out the current status of material approvals or other actions by federal, provincial and foreign governments and administrative and regulatory agencies which are required to be obtained or taken in respect of the Arrangement prior to the Effective Time. To the extent that there are any material developments with respect to such governmental, administrative or regulatory approvals or actions subsequent to the date of this Circular, EMC will issue one or more press releases with respect to any such material developments, which press releases shall be deemed to be incorporated into this Circular for the purposes of the Meeting.

         In the event that, subsequent to the date of this Circular and prior to the date of the Meeting, EMC is advised that the terms of any approval or action by any such government or administrative or regulatory agency may be made subject to terms and conditions which are materially different than those anticipated by EMC at the date of this Circular, EMC may elect to adjourn the meeting to a later date in order that EMC may present more current information to the EMC Securityholders at the Meeting respecting such governmental, administrative or regulatory approval or action.


    Canadian Regulatory Approvals

    Canadian Competition Act

         The Competition Act requires each party to certain prescribed transactions that exceed certain prescribed thresholds to file a pre-merger notification with the Commissioner of Competition. In the case of an acquisition of more than 20 percent of the voting shares of a public corporation (or more than 50 percent if the 20 percent threshold has been previously exceeded), pre-merger notification is required where, as determined pursuant to the Competition Act and the regulations thereunder: (a) the parties and their affiliates, in the aggregate, have assets in Canada, or annual gross revenues from sales in, from or into Canada, in excess of $400 million; and (b) the aggregate value of the assets in Canada, or the annual gross revenues from sales in or from Canada from such assets, owned by the corporation the shares of which are being acquired, and by corporations controlled by that corporation the shares of which are being acquired, exceeds $50 million.

         If a transaction is subject to the pre-merger notification requirement, a notification must be submitted to the Commissioner of Competition and a statutory waiting period must expire before the proposed transaction may be completed, unless the statutory waiting period has been terminated pursuant to the Competition Act or requirement to notify is waived pursuant to the Competition Act. The parties may choose to file either short form notifications (with a 14-day waiting period) or long form notifications (with a 42-day waiting period), but, if they file short form notifications, the Commissioner of Competition may, within 14 days, require that long form notifications be filed, in which case the proposed transaction may not be completed until the expiry of 42 days after the parties have filed their respective long form notifications. The Commissioner of Competition's review of a transaction, and communication of her intention as to whether to oppose a transaction, may take longer than the applicable statutory waiting periods.

         Upon request from the acquiring party or the parties, the Commissioner of Competition may issue an advance ruling certificate ("ARC") which confirms that she does not have sufficient grounds upon which to apply to the Competition Tribunal under the merger provisions of the Competition Act to oppose the transaction. Where the Commissioner of Competition issues an ARC in respect of a proposed transaction, that transaction is exempt from the pre-merger notification provisions. If a notification has already been filed and the statutory waiting period has not expired, the issuance of an ARC has the effect of terminating the statutory waiting period. In addition, if the transaction to which the ARC relates is substantially completed within one year after the ARC is issued, the Commissioner of Competition is thereafter precluded from seeking an order of the Competition Tribunal under the merger provisions of the Competition Act in respect of the transaction solely on the basis of information that is the same or substantially the same as the information on the basis of which the ARC was issued. Where the Commissioner of Competition does not issue an ARC, she can nevertheless waive the obligations of the parties to file a pre-merger notification.

         Alternatively, in lieu of an ARC, the Commissioner of Competition may issue a "no-action" letter following a notification or an application for an ARC, indicating that she is of the view that grounds do not exist at that time to initiate proceedings before the Competition Tribunal under the merger provisions of the Competition Act with respect to the proposed transaction, but that the Commissioner of Competition retains the authority to initiate such proceedings for a three-year period following substantial completion of the transaction.

         Except where an ARC has been issued, and regardless of whether a pre-merger notification is required and/or filed, the Commissioner of Competition retains the right to challenge a "merger" (as defined in the Competition Act) under the merger provisions of the Competition Act (or other provisions of the Competition Act) before the Competition Tribunal within three years from the transaction having been substantially completed. If the Competition Tribunal finds that the merger is likely to prevent or lessen competition substantially, it may make a variety of orders including an order that the merger not proceed in whole or in part or, in the event that the merger has been completed, order its dissolution or the disposition of the assets or shares. The Competition Tribunal may also issue an interim order under the Competition Act prohibiting the completion of a merger for up to 30 days where: (a) the Commissioner of Competition has certified that an inquiry is being made under Paragraph 10(1)(b) of the Competition Act in connection with the merger and that in her opinion more time is required to complete the inquiry; and (b) the Competition Tribunal finds that, in the absence of an interim order, a party to the merger or any other person is likely to take an action that would substantially impair the ability of the Competition Tribunal to remedy the effect of the merger on completion. The duration of such interim orders may be extended for an additional period of up to 30 days where the Competition Tribunal finds that the Commissioner of Competition is unable to complete her inquiry because of circumstances beyond her control.


         The obligations of EMC and Uranium One to complete the Arrangement are subject to, among other things, the conditions that, on or before the Effective Time: (a) any approvals (including the expiry of a prescribed time under a statute or regulation) under competition laws of jurisdictions that are determined to be required following due and prompt inquiry shall have been obtained in respect of the Arrangement on terms that will not cause a Material Adverse Effect to EMC or Uranium One; and (b) there shall not be in force any final injunction, order or decree, and there shall not be any proceeding brought by or before any Governmental Entity, which precludes or seeks to preclude Uranium One from acquiring the EMC Shares or which could impede or interfere with completion of the Arrangement. See "The Combination Agreement and Related Agreements — Conditions to Closing". The acquisition of EMC Shares pursuant to the Arrangement has been determined to be subject to the pre-merger notification requirements of the Competition Act and would constitute a "merger" for purposes of the merger provisions of the Competition Act.

         Uranium One filed a submission with the Commissioner of Competition on June 22, 2007 in respect of the Arrangement requesting issuance of an ARC under the Competition Act and, in the alternative, issuance of a no-action letter along with a waiver of the requirement under the Competition Act that Uranium One and EMC file pre-merger notifications. While EMC currently has no information to suggest that an ARC or no-action letter will not be issued, were the Commissioner of Competition not to issue an ARC or no-action letter with a waiver of the filing requirement, the parties would be prohibited under the Competition Act from implementing the Arrangement until the requisite notifications are made and the applicable statutory waiting period expires.

    U.S. Regulatory Approvals

    U.S. Registration Statement

         Uranium One will file a Registration Statement on Form F-80 under the U.S. Securities Act with the SEC in order to register the issuance pursuant to the Arrangement of the Uranium One Shares to the EMC Shareholders in exchange for their EMC Shares. This Circular will form a part of the Registration Statement. It is a condition to the obligations of EMC and Uranium One to complete the Arrangement that the Registration Statement has been filed with the SEC and is effective under the U.S. Securities Act, no stop orders suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement have been issued and no proceedings for that purpose have been initiated or be pending or contemplated by the SEC.

    Exon-Florio Approval

         Under the 1988 Exon-Florio Amendment to the U.S. Defense Production Act of 1950, as amended ("Exon-Florio"), the President of the United States has the authority to investigate and to prohibit or unwind any transaction in which a foreign person will acquire control of a "U.S. person," if the President believes in his sole discretion that the takeover would threaten or impair U.S. national security. Under the Exon-Florio regulations, EMC would be considered such a "U.S. person" because the majority of its assets are located within the territory of the United States.

         The President has delegated certain authority under Exon-Florio to the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States ("CFIUS"), a group of Cabinet-level officials. The President does not have the authority under Exon-Florio to prohibit or unwind a transaction if the parties submit a voluntary notification of a proposed transaction to CFIUS and obtain a clearance from CFIUS for the transaction.

         The customary procedure under Exon-Florio is for the parties to make a voluntary notification filing, which starts a 30-day review period within CFIUS. CFIUS must then either clear the transaction within the 30-day period, or initiate a formal investigation that would impose an automatic 45-60 day freeze on the transaction. EMC and Uranium One have agreed in the Combination Agreement to submit such a joint voluntary notification of the Arrangement and to obtain such a clearance from CFIUS as a condition to the Arrangement.

    Stock Exchange Approvals

         Uranium One has sought stock exchange approval of the issuance of the Uranium One Shares to be issued pursuant to the Arrangement. The TSX has granted conditional approval of the issuance, subject to the Arrangement Resolution being


    approved by a majority of the votes cast by EMC Shareholders at the Meeting as well as Uranium One fulfilling certain standard conditions imposed by the TSX in transactions of the nature of the Arrangement.

    INTERESTS OF INFORMED PERSONS IN MATERIAL TRANSACTIONS

         EMC's subsidiary, Golden Predator Mines Inc. ("Golden Predator") is currently in the process of completing a private placement of units, each unit consisting of one share of Golden Predator and one warrant to purchase one share of Golden Predator. William Sheriff is the "promoter" of Golden Predator under applicable Canadian securities laws and William Sherriff, James Watt, George Lim, Christine Thompson and Art Ettlinger are directors and officers of Golden Predator and directors, officers or contractors of EMC. Current directors and officers of EMC will be purchasing units of Golden Predator. If the private placement is completed on its terms, EMC will own approximately 24% of the outstanding shares of Golden Predator and Golden Predator will no longer be a subsidiary of EMC.

    Business

    Introduction

         EMC is engaged in the business of acquiring, exploring and developing uranium mineral properties, and is currently focussed on advancing its industry leading uranium property portfolio towards production in the United States, which is the world's largest uranium consumer market. EMC has extensive advanced property holdings in Wyoming, Texas and New Mexico that are amenable to ISR. This form of uranium mining was pioneered in Texas and Wyoming and utilizes oxygenated groundwater to dissolve the uranium in place and pump it to the surface through water wells. ISR is considered in the uranium mining industry to be very cost-effective and one of the safest and most environmentally friendly uranium mining methods. EMC also has uranium properties in Colorado, Utah, Nevada, Oregon and Arizona.

    All of EMC's mineral properties are currently at the exploration stage.

    Principal Projects

         For further descriptions of EMC's principal projects, see "General Development of the Business" and "Description of Business" in the EMC AIF and the other documents incorporated herein by reference.


    Recent Developments

      (a) High Plains Uranium, Inc.

         Effective January 19, 2007, EMC acquired all the issued and outstanding shares of High Plains Uranium, Inc. pursuant to an arrangement under the laws of British Columbia and New Brunswick. Under the arrangement, shareholders of High Plains received one EMC Share for each 6.2 common shares of High Plains.

         As a result of the business combination with High Plains, EMC increased its substantial Wyoming property position from over 105,000 acres to over 165,000 acres. EMC's Texas acreage more than doubled from just under 10,000 acres to approximately 20,000 acres. EMC's project portfolio now includes property positions covering known areas of uranium in all four of the principal uranium basins in Wyoming, including two properties in Gas Hill, five properties in the Great Divide basin and one property in the Shirley Basin as well as six properties in the only currently producing basin in the state, the Powder River basin. EMC's South Powder River basin land position was consolidated with the addition of High Plains' land position in the basin and EMC's land position within the northern Powder River basin was significantly increased.

      (b) Uranium Sales Agreement

         On May 1, 2007, EMC announced that it had entered into its first definitive agreement for the supply of uranium concentrate, with a leading US nuclear utility. The contract covers the sale of a minimum of 1,400,000 pounds and a maximum of 1,800,000 pounds of U3O8for delivery over a five-year period beginning in 2010. The terms include market related pricing along with floor price protection.

      (c) Golden Predator Mines Inc.

         On November 21, 2006, EMC's wholly owned subsidiary, Golden Predator Mines Inc., completed the acquisition of Springer Mining Company from General Electric Company. Total consideration consisted of US$4.5 million as well as the assumption of certain reclamation obligations in the amount of US$981,411. The reclamation obligations are secured by way of escrowed funds which will be released periodically upon completion of various stages of reclamation work. Springer Mining owns approximately 2,900 acres of fee simple land including the Springer tungsten mine and mill complex located in Pershing County, Nevada.

         Golden Predator is currently in the process of completing a private placement of units, each unit consisting of one share of Golden Predator and one warrant to purchase one share of Golden Predator. The private placement will consist of 11 million units at a price of $1.00 per unit. The warrants will have a term of not more than two years and have an exercise price of $1.50 per share. A portion of the private placement will occur on a brokered basis. If the private placement is completed on these terms, EMC will own approximtely 24% of the outstanding shares of Golden Predator and Golden Predator will no longer be a subsidiary of EMC.

      (d) Sheriff Data Agreements

         On June 1, 2005, EMC and Energy Metals Corporation (US) entered into a license and sublicense agreement with William Sheriff, of Wylie, Texas, pursuant to which EMC and Energy Metals Corporation (US) acquired an exclusive right to use certain uranium data archives owned by Mr. Sheriff, consisting of the uranium portion of uranium exploration databases from UV Industries and worldwide exploration, metallurgy and property files for the Union Carbide Corporation and certain of its subsidiaries. An amendment to this agreement was executed effective January 1, 2007 pursuant to which EMC acquired rights to use the portions of the data archives that were not included in the original agreement. If EMC sublicenses the use of the databases to any third party, EMC must pay to Mr. Sheriff a certain percentage of the consideration received by EMC in connection with the sublicense, ranging from 20% to 50% of the consideration received.



      (e) Hobson Lease

         EMC's subsidiary, South Texas Mining Venture L.L.P. ("STMV"), is the lessee of a 7.286 acre tract of land constituting the Hobson Plant site under a Plant Site Surface Lease dated May 30, 2007. The lease was secured through a combined transaction whereby STMV deeded all of its undivided co-ownership interest in the Hobson Plant site to the lessor and leased back the site under the Plant Site Surface Lease. The lease carries an initial term of five years, and may be extended if STMV makes scheduled payments and maintains its processing activities. The lease grants to STMV the exclusive right to construct and operate a processing facility, and/or to expand the existing facility, for uranium and other fissionable substances. The lease must be maintained through the payment of annual rentals and periodic extension payments.

      (f) Greencastle Resources Ltd.

         EMC and Greencastle Resources Ltd. have signed an agreement whereby Greencastle will option and earn up to a 75% interest in EMC's Beaver Claims in Fremont County, Wyoming. A press release announcing the agreement was issued by Greencastle on May 29, 2007. Initially, Greencastle will issue 500,000 shares to EMC as consideration for the option, and EMC will purchase 1,000,000 Greencastle units at $0.30 per unit, each unit consisting of one common share and one half of a common share purchase warrant, each whole warrant entitling EMC to acquire one additional common share of Greencastle at $0.40. The warrants will be valid for 18 months. To maintain the option to acquire a 60% interest in the Beaver Claims, Greencastle must carry out a total of $2 million in exploration expenditures over 5 years and pay an additional 1.5 million Greencastle shares over 4 years. Greencastle may earn an additional 15% interest if it completes a bankable feasibility study.

      (g) VMX Resources Inc.

         On April 16, 2007, EMC executed an agreement with VMX Resources Inc. granting VMX Resources the right to acquire interests in EMC's Rose Pipe Property in Arizona. VMX Resources may acquire up to a 70% interest in the Rose Pipe Property upon payment of certain development costs and the issuance of up to 3,000,000 shares of VMX Resources to EMC over a three-year period. If the property commences production, EMC will have the first right of refusal on processing and marketing any uranium ore produced from the Rose Pipe Property.

         Subject to regulatory approval, upon payment of certain cash by VMX Resources, EMC will also grant VMX Resources an exclusive 60-day period in which to negotiate an option to acquire a minimum 51% interest in an advanced uranium exploration property owned by EMC. In addition, subject to regulatory approval, VMX Resources has the right to acquire a 100% interest in an additional uranium pipe property upon the issuance to EMC of an additional 500,000 shares of VMX Resources.

         VMX Resources has granted EMC the right to participate in future equity financings to the extent of 9.9 percent of such equity issuances for a period of 12 months and, for the term of the agreement, EMC will be entitled to appoint one member to the board of directors of VMX Resources.

    Description of Uranium One Shares

         Uranium One's authorized capital consists of one class of Uranium One Shares. Uranium One is authorized to issue an unlimited number of Uranium One Shares. As at June 21, 2007, 365,186,102 Uranium One Shares were issued and outstanding.

         All Uranium One Shares rank equally as to voting rights, participation in a distribution of Uranium One's assets on a liquidation, dissolution or winding-up and the entitlement to dividends. The holders of Uranium One Shares are entitled to receive notice of all meetings of shareholders and to attend and vote the shares at such meetings. Each Uranium One Share carries with it the right to one vote.

         In the event of the liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of Uranium One or other distribution of Uranium One's assets, Uranium One Shareholders will be entitled to receive, on a pro rata basis, all of the assets remaining after Uranium One has paid out its liabilities.

    Dividends, if any, will be determined by the Uranium One Board.

    Description of Uranium One Debentures

         The following description of the Uranium One Debentures is a brief summary of their material attributes and characteristics, which does not purport to be complete, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the provisions of the December 20, 2007 trust indenture (the "Indenture") entered into between Uranium One and Computershare Trust Company of Canada (the "Indenture Trustee") and which is available for review under Uranium One's profile on SEDAR. All capitalized terms are as defined in the Indenture unless otherwise defined herein.

         On December 20, 2006, Uranium One issued $155,250,000 aggregate principal amount of Uranium One Debentures. The Debentures become due on December 31, 2011 and bear interest at a rate of 4.25 percent per annum on the principal amount, payable semi-annually in arrears on June 30 and December 31 of each year. The Uranium One Debentures are listed for trading on the TSX under the symbol "SXR.DB".

         The Uranium One Debentures are general unsecured obligations of Uranium One and are subordinated in right of payment of the principal portion of all present and future senior indebtedness (being secured debt, unsecured bank or other institutional debt, and project debt, or renewals, extensions and refunding of such indebtedness) of Uranium One. The Uranium One Debentures are direct senior unsecured indebtedness of Uranium One, ranking equally and rateably with all other senior unsecured indebtedness and senior to all subordinated indebtedness of Uranium One.

         Each Uranium One Debenture is convertible into Uranium One Common Shares at the option of the holder at any time prior to the close of business on the earlier of the business day immediately preceding the Maturity Date or, if called for redemption, on the business day immediately preceding the date fixed for redemption, into 50 Uranium One Common Shares for each $1,000 principal amount of Uranium One Debentures, representing a conversion price of Cdn$20.00 per share (the "Conversion Price"), subject to adjustment in certain circumstances.

         The Uranium One Debentures may not be redeemed by Uranium One prior to January 1, 2010. On and after January 1, 2010 and prior to the Maturity Date, the Uranium One Debentures may be redeemed by Uranium One, in whole or in part from time to time, on not more than 60 days and not less than 30 days prior notice at a redemption price equal to their principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, up to but excluding the date set for redemption, provided that the weighted average trading price of the Uranium One Common Shares on the TSX for the 20 consecutive trading days ending five trading days prior to the date on which notice of redemption is at least 130 percent of the Conversion Price.

         Uranium One has the option, subject to regulatory approval, to satisfy its obligations to repay the principal amount of the Uranium One Debentures upon redemption or at maturity, provided no event of default under the Indenture has occurred and is continuing at such time, upon not less than 40 days and not more than 60 days prior notice, by issuing and delivering that number of freely tradable Uranium One Common Shares obtained by dividing the principal amount of the Uranium One Debentures by 95 percent of the weighted average trading price of the Uranium One Common Shares on the TSX for the 20 consecutive trading days ending five trading days before the date fixed for redemption or maturity, as the case may be.


         Within 30 days of the occurrence of a "Change of Control", defined as the acquisition of voting control or direction over at least 66 2 / 3 percent of the aggregate voting rights attached to the Uranium One Common Shares then outstanding, Uranium One must commence an offer to purchase all Uranium One Debentures then outstanding, in whole or in part, at a price equal to 101 percent of the principal amount of the Uranium One Debentures plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon. In the event of a Change of Control that is a transaction in respect of which 10 percent or more of the aggregate fair market value of the consideration for the transaction consists of the fair market value of (i) cash, (ii) other property or (iii) equity securities that are not traded or scheduled to be traded immediately following such transaction on a recognized stock exchange (a "Cash Transaction"), holders of the Uranium One Debentures may elect to convert their Uranium One Debentures and receive, in addition to the number of Uranium One Common Shares they otherwise would have been entitled to under "Conversion" (referred to above), an additional number of Uranium One Common Shares not exceeding the specified amount of Common Shares per $1,000 principal amount of Uranium One Debentures, as further described in the Indenture, and provided that the conversion price is not less than permitted discounts to the market price. The Arrangement is not a Change of Control because EMC Shareholders will be issued Uranium One Common Shares holding fewer than 66 2 / 3 percent of the aggregate voting rights attached to the Uranium One Common Shares after giving effect to the Arrangement.

    THE COMBINED COMPANY AFTER THE ARRANGEMENT

    General

         On completion of the Arrangement, Uranium One, as the Combined Company, will continue to be a corporation incorporated under and governed by the CBCA. After the Effective Date, Uranium One will own all of the EMC Shares.

         The business and operations of EMC will be managed and operated as a subsidiary of Uranium One.

EMC will also be entitled to nominate one other additional director to the Uranium One Board. William Lupien will be appointed to serve as a director of Aflease Gold. Subject to final negotiation, Paul Matysek is expected to be Executive Vice President, Americas of Uranium One, and Dennis Stover is expected to be Senior Vice President, Americas, ISR Operations of Uranium One.

    Share Capital of the Combined Company

         In connection with the Arrangement, EMC Shareholders will receive Uranium One Shares which have the terms and conditions described under "Information Relating to Uranium One — Description of Uranium One Shares".


         The share capital of Uranium One will remain unchanged as a result of the completion of the Arrangement, other than for the issuance of Uranium One Shares contemplated in the Arrangement (including Uranium One Shares issuable upon the exercise of the Uranium One Options issuable in exchange for EMC Options).

    Stock Exchange Listings and Reporting Issuer Status

         Uranium One Shares will remain listed on the TSX and JSE following the Effective Date. Uranium One will remain a reporting issuer, or the equivalent thereof, in those jurisdictions in Canada where it currently has reporting issuer or equivalent status.

         EMC will be delisted from both the TSX and NYSE Arca following the Effective Date. EMC will also seek to be deemed not to be a reporting issuer in those jurisdictions in Canada and the United States where it currently has reporting issuer or equivalent status.

    Shareholders of the Combined Company

         On June 21, 2007, there were 85,535,367 EMC Shares issued and outstanding and 365,186,102 Uranium One Shares issued and outstanding. Assuming that all 1,240,069 EMC Warrants outstanding as of June 21, 2007 are exercised prior to the Effective Time, that no Dissent Rights are exercised, and that no additional EMC Shares or Uranium One Shares are issued prior to the Effective Time, Uranium One will be issuing a total of 99,791,751 Uranium One Shares under the Arrangement. Upon completion of the Arrangement there will be a total of 464,977,853 Uranium One Shares outstanding, approximately 21 percent of which will be owned by EMC Shareholders and approximately 79 percent of which will be owned by Uranium One Shareholders. Based on insider reports in respect of EMC and Uranium One filed to date, no person will have control or direction over more than 10 percent of the Uranium One Shares.

    Selected Pro Forma Financial Information

         The Uranium One unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements as at March 31, 2007, and for the three-month period ended March 31, 2007 and the year ended December 31, 2006 is attached as Appendix "E" to this Circular.

         These material contracts are available for review on SEDAR located at the following website: www.sedar.com. Alternatively, they may be inspected during normal business hours at Uranium One's offices in Toronto, prior to the Meeting date.

    DISSENT RIGHTS

         There is no mandatory statutory right of dissent and appraisal in respect of plans of arrangement under the Act. However, as contemplated in the Plan of Arrangement, EMC has granted to Registered Shareholders who object to the Arrangement Resolution the Dissent Rights which are set out in their entirety in the Interim Order, a copy of which is in Appendix "C" to this Circular. The following summary of the Dissent Rights is qualified in its entirety by the Interim Order.

         A Registered Shareholder who intends to exercise the Dissent Rights must deliver a Dissent Notice to EMC at Suite 1238 – 200 Granville Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, V6C 1S4, Attention: Corporate Secretary, to be received not later than 4:00 p.m. (Vancouver time) on July 27, 2007 and must not vote any Dissent Shares it holds in favour of the Arrangement. A Beneficial EMC Shareholder who wishes to exercise the Dissent Rights must arrange for the Registered Shareholder(s) holding its EMC Shares to deliver the Dissent Notice. The Dissent Notice must contain all of the information specified in the Interim Order.

         If the Arrangement Resolution is passed at the Meeting, EMC must send by registered mail to every Dissenting Shareholder, prior to the date set for the hearing of the Final Order, a Notice of Intention stating that, subject to receipt of the Final Order and satisfaction of the other conditions set out in the Combination Agreement, EMC intends to complete the Arrangement, and advising the Dissenting Shareholder that if the Dissenting Shareholder intends to proceed with its exercise of its Dissent Rights, it must deliver to EMC, within 14 days after the mailing of the Notice of Intention, a written statement containing the information specified by the Interim Order, together with the certificate(s) representing the Dissent Shares.

         A Dissenting Shareholder delivering such a written statement may not withdraw from its dissent and, at the Effective Time, will be deemed to have transferred to EMC all of its Dissent Shares. EMC will pay to each Dissenting Shareholder for the Dissent Shares the amount agreed on by EMC and the Dissenting Shareholder. Either EMC or a Dissenting Shareholder may apply to Court if no agreement on the amount to be paid for the Dissent Shares has been reached, and the Court may:

      (a)

    determine the fair value that the Dissent Shares had immediately before the passing of the Arrangement Resolution, excluding any appreciation or depreciation in anticipation of the Arrangement unless such




     

    exclusion would be inequitable, or order that such fair value be established by arbitration or by reference to the Registrar or a referee of the Court;

         
      (b)

    join in the application each other Dissenting Shareholder who has not reached an agreement with EMC as to the amount to be paid for the Dissent Shares; or

         
      (c)

    make consequential orders and give directions it considers appropriate.

         If a Dissenting Shareholder fails to strictly comply with the requirements of the Dissent Rights set out in the Interim Order, it will lose its Dissent Rights, EMC will return to the Dissenting Shareholder the certificate(s) representing the Dissent Shares that were delivered to EMC, if any, and, if the Arrangement is completed, that Dissenting Shareholder shall be deemed to have participated in the Arrangement on the same terms as all other EMC Shareholders who are not Dissenting Shareholders.

         Registered Shareholders wishing to exercise the Dissent Rights should consult their legal advisors with respect to the legal rights available to them in relation to the Arrangement and the Dissent Rights. Registered Shareholders should note that the exercise of Dissent Rights can be a complex, time-consuming and expensive procedure.

    DEPOSIT AND TRANSMITTAL

    Deposit

         The details of the procedures for the deposit of certificates representing EMC Shares and the delivery by the Depositary of the consideration to be paid for the EMC Shares are set out in the Letter of Transmittal (printed on green paper) provided to holders of EMC Shares herewith. Registered Shareholders who do not receive a Letter of Transmittal, or require an additional Letter of Transmittal, should contact the Depositary. EMC Optionholders need not take any action with respect to the exchange of their EMC Options under the Arrangement, and accordingly the instructions in this section apply only to EMC Shareholders.

         The Depositary will forward to all Registered Shareholders who, prior to the Effective Date, have deposited their properly completed and executed Letters of Transmittal, together with their EMC Share certificates, the certificates for the Uranium One Shares to which they are entitled under the Arrangement as soon as reasonably practicable on or after the Effective Date. The Depositary will forward to Registered Shareholders who, after the Effective Date, have deposited their properly completed and executed Letters of Transmittal together with their EMC Share certificates and all other documents contemplated by the Letter of Transmittal, the certificates for the Uranium One Shares within three Business Days following the receipt by the Depositary of such Letters of Transmittal and EMC Share certificates.

         Registered Shareholders who do not forward to the Depositary properly completed and executed Letters of Transmittal, together with their EMC Share certificates and all other documents contemplated by the Letter of Transmittal, will not receive the Uranium One Shares to which they are otherwise entitled under the Arrangement until proper tender is made. At and after 2:00 p.m. (Vancouver time) on the Effective Date, certificates formerly representing EMC Shares shall represent only the right to receive Uranium One Shares in accordance with the Plan of Arrangement.

         If the Combination Agreement is terminated and the Arrangement is not completed, all certificates representing EMC Shares delivered to the Depositary will be returned, at EMC's expense, to the holders of such shares following such termination, along with any other relevant documents.

    Letter of Transmittal

         EMC Shareholders wishing to deliver their certificates representing EMC Shares must deliver to the Depositary, at any of the offices specified in the Letter of Transmittal, the following documents:

      (a) the certificate or certificates representing the EMC Shares held by the EMC Shareholder;



      (b)

    the Letter of Transmittal (printed on green paper) or a manually signed facsimile thereof, properly completed and duly executed as required by the instructions set out in the Letter of Transmittal; and

         
      (c)

    all other documents required by the instructions set out in the Letter of Transmittal in accordance with the specific circumstances of each EMC Shareholder.

    Guarantee of Signatures

         If (a) the Letter of Transmittal is signed by a person other than the Registered Shareholder(s), or (b) the Uranium One Shares to be issued pursuant to the Arrangement or, if the Arrangement is not effective, the EMC Shares to be returned are to be sent to a person other than such Registered Shareholder(s) or sent to an address other than the address of the Registered Shareholder(s) as shown on the register of members of EMC, the signature on the Letter of Transmittal must be guaranteed by a Canadian Schedule 1 chartered bank, a member of the Securities Transfer Agent Medallion Program (STAMP), a member of the Stock Exchanges Medallion Program (SEMP) or a member of the New York Stock Exchange Inc. Medallion Signature Program (MSP) (an "Eligible Institution") or in some other manner satisfactory to the Depositary (except that no guarantee is required if the signature is that of an Eligible Institution).

    Fiduciaries, Representatives and Authorizations

         Where the Letter of Transmittal or any certificate, share transfer or power of attorney is executed on behalf of a corporation, partnership or association or by an agent, executor, administrator, trustee, guardian, attorney-in-fact or by any other person acting in a fiduciary or representative capacity, the Letter of Transmittal must be accompanied by satisfactory evidence of the authority to act. Uranium One or the Depositary may require additional evidence of authority or additional documentation.

    Lost EMC Share Certificates

         EMC Shareholders who are required to surrender certificates in order to receive certificates for the appropriate number of Uranium One Shares pursuant to the Arrangement and who have lost or misplaced the certificates representing their EMC Shares should execute and return to the Depositary a Lost Certificate Notice which can be obtained from the Depositary. Once the Depositary establishes the EMC Shareholder's proper entitlement and such EMC Shareholder satisfies such requirements as may be imposed by Computershare Investor Services in connection with the issuance of replacement certificates, the EMC Shareholder will receive the Uranium One Shares to which such EMC Shareholder is entitled.

    Mail Service Interruption

         Notwithstanding the provisions of this Circular or the Letter of Transmittal, certificates representing Uranium One Shares to be returned to EMC Shareholders will not be mailed if the Depositary determines that delivery thereof by mail may be delayed. Persons entitled to certificates for Uranium One Shares which are not mailed for the foregoing reason may take delivery thereof at the office of the Depositary at which the deposited certificate(s) representing EMC Shares in respect of which the certificates for Uranium One Shares are being issued were deposited, upon application to the Depositary, until such time as the Depositary has determined that delivery by mail will no longer be delayed. The Depositary shall provide notice of any such determination not to mail as soon as reasonably practicable after the making of such determination. Certificates for Uranium One Shares not mailed for the foregoing reason will be conclusively deemed to have been delivered on the first day upon which they are available for delivery to the depositing EMC Shareholder at the office of the Depositary.

         EMC Shareholders who hold EMC Shares as of the Effective Date have a period of six years from the Effective Date during which they may surrender the share certificate(s) representing the EMC Shares held by them as of the Effective Date, following which time they lose all rights to receive any consideration under the Arrangement; provided, however, that the rights of Dissenting EMC Shareholders will be governed by Article 3 of the Plan of Arrangement.

    RISK FACTORS

         You should carefully consider the following risk factors, as well as the other information contained in this Circular, in evaluating whether to approve the Arrangement. In particular, we direct your attention to the risk factors and cautionary statements incorporated by reference into this Circular from public filings made by EMC, UrAsia Energy Ltd. and Uranium One.

    The Exchange and Treatment of EMC Shares and EMC Options pursuant to the Arrangement may be taxable for U.S. Holders.

    U.S. Holders of EMC Shares and EMC Options should be aware that even if the Arrangement otherwise qualifies as a tax-deferred reorganization for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the exchange of EMC Shares for Uranium One Shares and the exchange of EMC Options for Uranium One Options pursuant to the Arrangement may be a fully taxable disposition pursuant to the PFIC rules (See "Certain U.S. Tax Considerations for U.S. Securityholders — Taxation of Exchange to U.S. Holders — PFIC Rules").

    The Arrangement may not be completed. Failure to complete the Arrangement could negatively affect EMC's share price, future business and operations.

    The completion of the Arrangement is subject to the requirement to obtain certain securityholder, regulatory and other approvals, limits on the number of dissenting EMC Shares and other customary closing conditions. If the Arrangement is not completed: (a) the price of the EMC Shares may decline to the extent that the relevant current market price reflects a market assumption that the Arrangement will be completed; (b) certain costs related to the Arrangement, such as legal, accounting and certain financial advisor fees incurred by EMC, must be paid by EMC even if the Arrangement is not completed; (c) EMC may be required to pay Uranium One the Break Fee, which could adversely affect EMC's financial condition; and (d) if the Arrangement is terminated and the EMC Board decides to seek another merger or business combination, there can be no assurance that it will be able to find a party willing to pay an equivalent or more attractive price than the price to be paid by Uranium One pursuant to the Arrangement.

    Risks associated with the exchange ratio.

    Pursuant to the provisions of the Plan of Arrangement, each EMC Share will be exchanged for 1.15 Uranium One Shares. This exchange ratio is fixed and it will not increase or decrease due to fluctuations in the market price of either the Uranium One Shares or the EMC Shares. The market value of the consideration that EMC Shareholders will receive in the Arrangement will depend on the market price of the Uranium One Shares on the Effective Date. If the market price of the Uranium One Shares increases or decreases, the market value of the Uranium One Shares that EMC

    Shareholders will receive will correspondingly increase or decrease. Because the Effective Date will be later than the Meeting Date, the price of the Uranium One Shares on the Effective Date may be higher or lower than the price on the Meeting Date. In addition, the number of Uranium One Shares being issued in connection with the Arrangement will not change despite decreases or increases in the market price of EMC Shares. Thus, the value of a Uranium One


    Share relative to an EMC Share may decrease if the market price of an EMC Share increases, or the market price of a Uranium One Share decreases, prior to the Effective Time. Many of the factors that affect the market price of the Uranium One Shares and the EMC Shares are beyond the control of Uranium One and EMC, respectively.

         These factors include fluctuations in commodity prices, most importantly uranium and gold, fluctuations in currency exchange rates, changes in the regulatory environment, adverse political developments, prevailing conditions in the capital markets and interest rate fluctuations.

    Uncertainties associated with the Arrangement.

    The Arrangement will involve the integration of companies that previously operated independently. An important factor in the success of the Arrangement will be the ability of the management of the combined entity in managing EMC and, if appropriate, integrating all or part of the operations, systems, technologies and personnel of the two companies following the completion of the Arrangement. The Arrangement and/or the integration of the two businesses can result in unanticipated operational problems and interruptions, expenses and liabilities, the diversion of management attention and the loss of key employees, customers or suppliers. There can be no assurance that the Arrangement and business integration will be successful or that the combination will not adversely affect the business, financial condition or operating results of the Combined Company. In addition, the Combined Company may incur charges related to the Arrangement and related to integrating the two companies. There can be no assurance that the Combined Company will not incur additional material charges in subsequent quarters to reflect additional costs associated with the Arrangement or that the benefits expected from the Arrangement will be realized.

    Increased Number of Uranium One Shares may increase the volatility of Uranium One's share price.

    Although the issuance of Uranium One Shares under the Arrangement should increase liquidity in the market for such Uranium One Shares, there may be greater volatility of market prices in the near term pending the creation of a stable shareholder base. Any such volatility could result in a decline in the market price of Uranium One Shares.

    The value of Uranium One Shares may be adversely affected by any inability of the Combined Company to achieve the benefits expected to result from the completion of the Arrangement.

    Achieving the benefits of the Arrangement will depend in part upon meeting the challenges inherent in the successful combination of business enterprises of the size and scope of Uranium One and EMC and the possible resulting diversion of management attention for an extended period of time. There can be no assurance that the Combined Company will meet these challenges and that such diversion will not negatively impact the operations of the Combined Company following the closing of the Arrangement.

    The Combined Company may not realize the benefits of its growth projects.

    As part of its strategy, the Combined Company will continue existing efforts and initiate new efforts to develop uranium and other mineral projects and will have a larger number of such projects as a result of the Arrangement. A number of risks and uncertainties are associated with the development of these types of projects, including political, regulatory, design, construction, labour, operating, technical and technological risks and uncertainties relating to capital and other costs and financing risks. The failure to successfully develop any of these initiatives could have a Material Adverse Effect on the Combined Company's financial position and results of operations.

    The Combined Company may not meet key production and other cost estimates.

    A decrease in the amount and a change in the timing of the production outlook for the Combined Company will directly impact the amount and timing of the Combined Company's cash flow from operations. The actual impact of such a decrease on the Combined Company's cash flow from operations would depend on the timing of any changes in


    production and on actual prices and costs. Any change in the timing of these projected cash flows that would occur due to production shortfalls or labour disruptions would, in turn, result in delays in receipt of such cash flows and in using such cash to reduce debt levels and may require additional borrowings to fund capital expenditures, including capital for the Combined Company's development projects, in the future. Any such financing requirements could adversely affect the Combined Company's credit ratings and its ability to access the capital markets in the future to meet any external financing requirements or increase its debt financing costs. In addition, a number of these and other developments or events, including changes in credit terms, demand for the Combined Company's products and production disruptions, could make historical trends in Uranium One's and EMC's cash flows less meaningful for future cash flow predictions. The level of production and capital and operating cost estimates relating to growth projects which are used in establishing estimates of uranium and gold reserves or for determining and obtaining financing and other purposes, are based on certain assumptions and are inherently subject to significant uncertainties. It is very likely that actual results for the Combined Company's projects will differ from current estimates and assumptions, and these differences may be material. In addition, experience from actual mining or processing operations may identify new or unexpected conditions that could reduce production below, and/or increase capital and/or operating costs above, current estimates. If actual results are less favourable than currently estimated, the Combined Company's business, results of operations, financial condition and liquidity could be materially adversely affected.

    The Combined Company may face increased risk associated with labour relations.

    Strikes and other labour disruptions at any of the Combined Company's operations or lengthy work interruptions at the Combined Company's existing and future development projects could materially adversely affect the timing and completion and the cost of any such project, as well as the Combined Company's business, results of operations, financial condition and liquidity.

    The Combined Company will not be subject to SEC reporting and other requirements after the Arrangement, which may cause certain information and rights currently available to EMC Shareholders to be unavailable after the Arrangement.

    The EMC Shares are currently registered under Section 12 of the U.S. Exchange Act, and EMC is subject to the periodic reporting requirements and certain other requirements of the U.S. federal securities laws that are applicable to foreign private issuers, including the requirement to file an annual report with the SEC including a reconciliation of EMC's financial statements to U.S. GAAP, requirements relating to the reporting of beneficial ownership of EMC Shares, tender offer regulations and certain provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. The Uranium One Shares are not subject to the registration or reporting requirements under the U.S. Exchange Act or the other requirements described above.

    Accordingly, if the Arrangement is completed, holders of Combined Company securities may not have access to all of the information regarding, and rights with respect to, the Combined Company that the holders of EMC securities currently enjoy.

    The $55 million break-up fee payable by EMC under specified circumstances and certain restrictions contained in the Combination Agreement may discourage third party proposals to acquire EMC that EMC Securityholders may otherwise find desirable.

    Pursuant to the terms of the Combination Agreement, EMC may incur a termination fee of up to $55,000,000 if the Arrangement is terminated under specified circumstances. See "The Combination Agreement and Related Agreements — Break Fee and Reimbursement of Expenses". This termination fee may discourage third party proposals to acquire EMC that EMC Securityholders might otherwise find desirable, to the extent that a potential acquiror would not be willing to assume the termination fee. The Combination Agreement also prohibits EMC from soliciting, initiating, facilitating, engaging in, or responding to or encouraging any inquiries, proposals or alternative transactions with any third party, subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Combination Agreement. See "The Combination Agreement and Related Agreements — Non-Solicitation Covenants of EMC".


    The Fairness Opinion will not reflect changes in circumstances between the signing of the Combination Agreement and the closing of the Arrangement.

    The Combination Agreement does not require that GMP's Fairness Opinion be updated as a condition to consummating the Arrangement, and neither EMC nor Uranium One currently intends to request that the Fairness Opinion be updated.

    As such, the Fairness Opinion does not reflect any changes with respect to either EMC or Uranium One since June 3, 2007, including any change in the relative values of EMC Shares or Uranium One Shares subsequent to June 3, 2007, the date of the Fairness Opinion. The market price of the EMC Shares and the Uranium One Shares may vary significantly between the date hereof and the date of the consummation of the Arrangement.

    The directors and senior officers of EMC have interests in the completion of the Arrangement that may differ from or conflict with the interests of the EMC Securityholders.

    In considering the recommendation of the EMC Board and its special committee with respect to the Arrangement, EMC Securityholders should be aware that senior officers of EMC and members of the EMC Board may have interests in the transactions contemplated by the Combination Agreement that are different than, or in addition to, the interests of the EMC Securityholders generally. Certain senior officers and members of the EMC Board own equity interests in EMC or Uranium One, are a party to employment and indemnification arrangements, have potential rights to certain other benefits on a change in control, including potential acceleration of vesting of outstanding equity awards, and have rights to ongoing indemnification that provide them with interests in the Arrangement that may differ from the interests of EMC's Securityholders generally. The EMC Board and its special committee were aware of these interests and considered them, among other matters, in approving the Combination Agreement and making its recommendation.

    Most or all of the Uranium One Shares issued in the Arrangement will be eligible for sale immediately after the Arrangement is completed, which could result in a decline in the market price of Uranium One Shares.

    Holders of EMC Shares will receive a substantial number of Uranium One Shares as a result of the Arrangement. Except for persons or entities that are affiliates of EMC prior to the Effective Time, or who are affiliates of Uranium One prior to or following the Effective Time, holders of Uranium One Shares will be entitled to immediately sell their Uranium One Shares inside or outside the United States. In addition, EMC anticipates that affiliates will be eligible to immediately sell their Uranium One Shares outside the United States through trades effected on the TSX or JSE. If one or more holders of Uranium One Shares sell substantial amounts of the Uranium One Shares into the public market following the closing of the Arrangement, the market price of the Uranium One Shares could decline significantly.

    Uranium One Shares received in the Arrangement will not be traded on a recognized U.S. securities exchange or trading market, which could affect the ability of U.S. shareholders to resell their Uranium One Shares or potentially affect liquidity or price.

    The Uranium One Shares will not be listed for trading on any U.S. exchange or trading market. Thus, U.S. holders of Uranium One Shares may be required to trade such shares outside the United States, with the TSX and JSE being the most likely exchanges where such trades may occur. The absence of an active U.S. trading market could decrease the liquidity of the Uranium Shares held by U.S. holders. See "Securities Law Concerns — U.S. Securities Laws".

    ARTICLE 2

    ARRANGEMENT

    2.1 Binding Effect. This Plan of Arrangement will become effective on, and be binding on and after, the Effective Time on EMC, Uranium One and on all of the EMC Securityholders.

    2.2 Events Sequential. At the Effective Time, the following shall occur and be deemed to occur in the following order without any further act or formality:

      (a)

    all issued and outstanding EMC Common Shares (other than EMC Common Shares in respect of which the Holder has duly and validly exercised his Dissent Rights and in respect of which the Holder is ultimately entitled to be paid the fair value thereof, and other than EMC Common Shares beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, by Uranium One) shall be and be deemed to be transferred to Uranium One (free of any claims or encumbrances) and the Holders thereof shall be entitled to receive from Uranium One in exchange for each such EMC Common Share, subject to Section 3.3, 1.15 of a Uranium One Common Share;

           
      (b)

    with respect to each EMC Common Share to which paragraph 2.2(a)applies:

           
      (i)

    the Holder thereof shall cease to be a Holder of such share and such Holder's name shall be deemed to be removed from the central securities register of EMC as of the Effective Time; and

           
      (ii)

    Uranium One shall be and be deemed to be the transferee of such EMC Common Share (free of any claims or encumbrances) and shall be deemed to be entered in the central securities register of EMC as the Holder thereof; and




      (c)

    each EMC Option outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will be exchanged for an option granted by Uranium One (a "Replacement Option") to purchase that number of Uranium One Common Shares that is equal to the number of EMC Common Shares that would otherwise have been issuable upon the exercise of such EMC Option immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by 1.15 at an exercise price per Uranium One Common Share equal to the exercise price per EMC Common Share of such EMC Option immediately prior to the Effective Time divided by 1.15, provided that (A) if the foregoing calculation results in a Replacement Option being exercisable for a number of Uranium One Common Shares that includes a fraction of a Uranium One Common Share, then the number of Uranium One Common Shares subject to such Replacement Option shall be rounded down to the next whole number of Uranium One Common Shares, (B) if the aggregate exercise price payable to acquire the Uranium One Common Shares under the Replacement Option includes a fraction of a cent, then such aggregate exercise price under such Replacement Option shall be rounded up to the next whole cent, and (C) all other terms and conditions of such Replacement Option, including as to vesting and expiry, will be the same as the terms of the EMC Option exchanged therefor.

    ARTICLE 3

    CERTIFICATES, PAYMENTS AND FRACTIONS

    3.1 Delivery of Consideration.

      (a)

    At or promptly after the Effective Date, Uranium One will deposit with the Depositary a certificate representing the Uranium One Common Shares payable and issuable in accordance with the provisions of Article 2 hereof. Subject to Section 3.5, on and after the Effective Time, certificates formerly representing EMC Common Shares prior to the Effective Time (other than EMC Common Shares beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, by Uranium One) shall cease to represent such shares and shall represent only the right to receive the consideration therefor specified in Section 2.2 in accordance with the terms of the Arrangement, subject to compliance with the requirements set forth in this Article 3.

         
      (b)

    As soon as practicable after the Effective Date, upon the Holder depositing with the Depositary certificates representing EMC Common Shares accompanied by a duly completed Letter of Transmittal and such other documents and instruments as the Depositary may reasonably require, Uranium One shall cause the Depositary to deliver, to the Holder or otherwise in accordance with the Letter of Transmittal, the share certificates evidencing the Uranium One Common Shares to which such Holder is entitled in accordance with the terms of the Arrangement.

         
      (c)

    At the Effective Time, each and every certificate, document, agreement or other instrument, if any, formerly representing the EMC Options shall be and shall be deemed to be cancelled, void and of no further force and effect without any further authorization, act or formality. Each EMC Optionholder shall be entitled to receive instruments representing the Replacement Options to which each such EMC Optionholder is entitled pursuant to the provisions hereof as soon as practical after the Effective Date and Uranium One shall register and make available, or send by first class mail, instruments representing the Replacement Options to the last address of each former holder of EMC Options as shown on the books and records of EMC.

    3.2 Distributions with Respect to Unsurrendered Certificates. No dividends or other distributions declared or made effective after the Effective Time with respect to Uranium One Common Shares with a record date after the Effective Time shall be paid to the Holder of any unsurrendered certificate unless or until the Holder surrenders such certificate in accordance with Section 3.1. Subject to Applicable Laws, at the time of such surrender of any such certificate (or, in the case of clause (b) below, at an appropriate payment date), there shall be paid to the Holder, without interest:

      (a)

    the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time previously paid with respect to the Uranium One Common Shares to which such Holder is entitled;




      (b)

    on the appropriate payment date, the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time but prior to surrender and a payment date subsequent to surrender payable with respect to the Uranium One Common Shares.

    3.3 No Fractional Shares. No fractional Uranium One Common Shares will be issued to Holders of EMC Common Shares in connection with the Arrangement. If a Holder of EMC Common Shares is entitled to receive a fractional Uranium One Common Share, the number of Uranium One Common Shares issuable to such Holder under the Arrangement will be rounded down to the nearest whole number of Uranium One Common Shares such Holder is entitled to receive under the Arrangement.

    3.4 Lost Certificates. If any certificate which immediately prior to the Effective Time represented outstanding EMC Common Shares that were exchanged pursuant to Article 2 hereof, has been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the person claiming such certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed, the Depositary will, subject to the terms hereof, issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed certificate, a certificate representing Uranium One Common Shares payable in respect thereof. When authorizing such issuance in exchange for any lost, stolen or destroyed certificate, the person to whom a certificate representing Uranium One Common Shares to be issued shall, as a condition precedent to the issuance thereof, give a bond satisfactory to the Depositary and Uranium One in such sum as Uranium One may reasonably direct or otherwise indemnify Uranium One, EMC and the Depositary in a manner satisfactory to them against any claim that may be made against EMC, Uranium One or the Depositary with respect to the certificate alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed.

    3.5 Unclaimed Certificates. Notwithstanding any of the other provisions hereof, any certificate which immediately prior to the Effective Time represented outstanding EMC Common Shares (other than EMC Common Shares beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, by Uranium One) that has not been surrendered with all other documents and instruments required by Article 3 on or prior to the sixth anniversary of the Effective Date, shall cease to represent a claim or interest of any kind or nature against EMC or Uranium One and the right of such Holder to receive Uranium One Common Shares, shall, on the sixth anniversary of the Effective Date, be deemed to have been surrendered and forfeited to Uranium One, together with all entitlements to dividends, distributions and any interest thereon held for such former Holder, for no consideration.

    3.6 Withholding Rights. Uranium One and the Depositary shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any consideration payable to any Holder of EMC Common Shares or any holder of the EMC Options pursuant to Section 2.2 hereof, such amounts as Uranium One or the Depositary is required or permitted to deduct and withhold with respect to such payment under the ITA or any provision of any other applicable federal, provincial, territorial, state, local or foreign tax laws, in each case, as amended. To the extent that amounts are so withheld, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes hereof as having been paid to the Holder of the securities in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made, provided that such withheld amounts are actually remitted to the appropriate taxing authority.

    ARTICLE 4

    RIGHTS OF DISSENT

    4.1 Dissenting EMC Shareholders. EMC Shareholders may exercise rights of dissent with respect to EMC Common Shares held by them pursuant to and in the manner set forth in the Interim Order or the Final Order ("Dissent Rights"). EMC Shareholders who exercise such rights to dissent ("Dissenting Shareholders") and who:

      (a)

    are ultimately entitled to be paid fair value for their EMC Common Shares in respect of which they dissent shall be deemed to have transferred such shares (free of any claims or encumbrances) to EMC for cancellation contemporaneously with the completion of the step described in Section 2.2(a); or

         
      (b)

    are ultimately not entitled, for any reason, to be paid fair value for their EMC Common Shares in respect of which they dissent, shall be deemed to have participated in the Arrangement on the same basis as a non- dissenting EMC Shareholder and shall be entitled to receive only the Uranium One Common Shares that such non-dissenting EMC Shareholders are entitled to receive, on the basis set forth in Section 2.2.



    4.2 Recognition of Dissenting Shareholders. Neither EMC, Uranium One nor any other person shall be required to recognize a Dissenting Shareholder as a registered or beneficial owner of EMC Common Shares at or after the Effective Time, and at the Effective Time the names of such Dissenting Shareholders shall be deleted from the central securities register of EMC.

    ARTICLE 5

    GENERAL

    5.1 Plan of Arrangement Amendment. EMC and Uranium One reserve the right to amend, modify and/or supplement this Plan of Arrangement at any time and from time to time prior to the Effective Time, provided that any such amendment, modification or supplement must be contained in a written document which is: (i) agreed to by Uranium One and EMC pursuant to the Combination Agreement, (ii) filed with the Court and, if made following the EMC Meeting, approved by the Court, and (iii) communicated to the EMC Securityholders if and as required by the Court. Any amendment, modification or supplement to this Plan of Arrangement may be proposed by EMC or Uranium One at any time prior to or at the EMC Meeting with or without any other prior notice or communication and, if so proposed and accepted by a two-thirds majority of the votes cast at the EMC Meeting (other than as may be required under the Interim Order), shall become part of this Plan of Arrangement for all purposes.

         Any amendment, modification or supplement to this Plan of Arrangement which is approved or directed by the Court following the EMC Meeting shall be effective only if it is consented to by EMC and Uranium One and if required by the Court, consented to by EMC Securityholders voting in the manner directed by the Court.

         Any amendment, modification or supplement to this Plan of Arrangement may be made unilaterally by Uranium One and EMC following the Effective Date without the approval of the EMC Securityholders, provided that it concerns a matter which, in the reasonable opinion of Uranium One and EMC, is of an administrative nature required to better give effect to the implementation of this Plan of Arrangement and is not adverse to the financial or economic interests of any EMC Securityholder.

    5.2 Paramountcy. From and after the Effective Time (i) this Plan of Arrangement shall take precedence and priority over any and all securities issued by EMC prior to the Effective Time, (ii) the rights and obligations of the EMC Securityholders in respect of their former EMC security holdings shall be solely as provided for in this Plan of Arrangement, and (iii) all actions, causes of actions, claims or proceedings (actual or contingent, and whether or not previously asserted) based on or in any way relating to securities of EMC shall be deemed to have been settled, compromised, released and determined without liability except as set forth herein.

    5.3 Termination. At any time up until the time the Final Order is made, Uranium One and EMC may mutually determine not to proceed with this Plan of Arrangement, or to terminate this Plan of Arrangement, notwithstanding any prior approvals given at the EMC Meeting. In addition to the foregoing, this Plan of Arrangement shall automatically and without notice, terminate immediately and be of no further force or effect, upon the termination of the Combination Agreement in accordance with its terms.

      Toronto, Ontario M5H 1J8
      Tel: (416) 367-8600 Fax: (416) 943-6160

    June 3, 2007

    To the Special Committee of the Board of Directors of
    Energy Metals Corporation
    Suite 1238 – 200 Granville Street
    Vancouver, B.C., V6C 1S4

    To the Special Committee of the Board of Directors:

    GMP Securities L.P. ("GMP") understands that Energy Metals Corporation ("Energy Metals" or the "Corporation") intends to enter into an agreement with sxr Uranium One Inc. ("SXR") by which SXR would acquire, through a court approved plan of arrangement, all of the outstanding common shares of Energy Metals (the "Transaction").

    As consideration for the Transaction, SXR will issue 1.15 shares of SXR for each share of Energy Metals. The terms of the Transaction will be more fully described in the definitive agreement to be entered into between Energy Metals and SXR.

    The Corporation requested GMP's opinion (the "Opinion") with respect to the fairness of the Transaction, from a financial point of view, to the shareholders of Energy Metals (the "Energy Metals Shareholders"). GMP has not been asked to prepare, and has not prepared, a formal valuation of Energy Metals, SXR or any of their respective securities or assets and the Opinion should not be construed as such.

    GMP ENGAGEMENT AND BACKGROUND

    GMP was formally engaged by the Special Committee of Energy Metals pursuant to a letter agreement dated May 15, 2007 (the "Engagement Agreement").

    Under the terms of the Engagement Agreement, GMP agreed to provide the Corporation with various advisory services in connection with the Transaction including, among other things, the provision of the Opinion.

    GMP is acting as financial advisor to the Corporation and will receive a fee from the Corporation for its services, including the delivery of the Opinion. In addition, GMP is to be reimbursed for its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses and is to be indemnified by the Corporation as described in the indemnity that forms part of the Engagement Agreement. The fees payable to GMP by Energy Metals arising from the Engagement Agreement are not contingent upon the conclusions reached by GMP herein.

    [GRAPHIC]

    INDEPENDENCE OF GMP

    GMP is not an insider, associate, or affiliate (as such terms are defined in the Securities Act (Ontario)) (the "Act") of Energy Metals or SXR or any of their respective subsidiaries, associates or affiliates and is not an advisor to any person or company other than to Energy Metals with respect to the Transaction.

    GMP has acted as an underwriter for Energy Metals in the past 24 months. The most recent transaction for which GMP acted for Energy Metals was in April 2006, in respect of which GMP acted as a co-lead underwriter to Energy Metals in connection with a private placement of $30,250,000 of common shares.

    GMP has also acted as an underwriter for SXR in the past 24 months. The most recent transaction for which GMP acted for SXR was in December 2006, in respect of which GMP acted as a co-managing underwriter to SXR in connection with a bought deal financing of $155,250,000 of convertible debentures.

    GMP has not entered into any other agreements or arrangements with Energy Metals or SXR or any of their affiliates with respect to any future dealings. GMP may however, in the ordinary course of its business, provide financial advisory or investment banking services to Energy Metals, SXR or any of their respective affiliates from time to time. In addition, in the ordinary course of its business, GMP may actively trade common shares and other securities of the Corporation, as well as securities of SXR for its own account and for the accounts of GMP clients and, accordingly, may at any time hold a long or short position in such securities. As an investment dealer, GMP conducts research on securities and may, in the ordinary course of its business, provide research reports and investment advice to its clients on investment matters, including with respect to the Corporation or SXR or their respective associates or affiliates, or with respect to the Transaction.

    The fees payable to GMP upon delivery of the Opinion are not contingent upon the conclusions reached by GMP in the Opinion.

    SCOPE OF REVIEW

    In connection with the Opinion, GMP has reviewed and relied upon, among other things, the following:

    1.

    the most recent draft of the combination agreement between the Corporation and SXR as it relates to financial matters, as of June 2, 2007;

       
    2.

    audited consolidated financial statements of the Corporation as at, and for the years ended, June 30, 2005 and June 30, 2006;

    4.

    unaudited consolidated interim financial statements of the Corporation and SXR for the periods up to and including March 31, 2007;

       
    5.

    management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations of the Corporation for the financial year ended June 30, 2006;

       
    6.

    various published research and industry reports for the Corporation and SXR and for the uranium mining industry;

       
    7.

    public information relating to the business, operations, financial performance and stock trading history of the Corporation and SXR and other selected public companies considered by GMP to be relevant;




    8.

    press releases issued by the Corporation and SXR for the last three years that have been filed with the System for Electronic Document Analysis and Retrieval ("SEDAR") of the Canadian Securities Administrators;

      
    9.

    filings for the last three years submitted by the Corporation and SXR that are publicly available on SEDAR;

      
    10.

    publicly available information with respect to other transactions comparable to the Transaction considered by GMP to be relevant;

      
    11.

    discussions in respect of the business, financial condition and prospects of Energy Metals with certain senior officers, management and directors of Energy Metals;

      
    12.

    a certificate of the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer of the Corporation dated June 3, 2007 (the "Certificate");

      
    13.

    such other corporate, industry and financial market information, investigations and analyses as GMP considered necessary or appropriate in the circumstances.

    GMP has not, to the best of its knowledge, been denied access by the Corporation or SXR to any information requested. GMP did not meet with the auditors of the Corporation or SXR and has assumed the accuracy and fair presentation of the audited and unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Corporation and, as applicable, the reports of the auditors thereon.

    ASSUMPTIONS AND LIMITATIONS

    With the Special Committee's approval, GMP has relied upon the completeness, accuracy and fair presentation of all of the financial and other information, data, advice, opinions and representations obtained by it from public sources or provided by the Corporation, its subsidiaries and the respective directors, officers, associates, affiliates, consultants, advisors and representatives thereof (collectively, the "Information"). The Opinion is conditional upon the completeness, accuracy and fair presentation of such Information. Subject to the exercise of professional judgement and except as expressly described herein, GMP has not attempted to verify independently the completeness, accuracy or fair presentation of any of the Information.

    The Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer of the Corporation have represented to GMP in the Certificate, among other things, that (i) the Information provided orally by or in the presence of an officer or director of Energy Metals or in writing by Energy Metals or orally or in writing by agents of Energy Metals to GMP relating to the Corporation or the Transaction for the purpose of preparing this Opinion was, at the date the Information was provided to GMP, and is, except as has been disclosed in writing to GMP, complete, true and correct in all material respects, and did not and does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact (as such term is defined in the Act) in respect of the Corporation or the Transaction or omit to state a material fact, necessary to make the Information not misleading in light of the circumstances under which the Information was made or provided; and (ii) since the dates on which the Information was disclosed or provided to GMP, there has been no material change (as such term is defined in the Act), financial or otherwise, in the financial condition, assets, liabilities (contingent or otherwise), business, operations or prospects of Energy Metals and there is no new material fact which is of a nature as to render any portion of the Information or any part thereof untrue or misleading in any materially adverse respect or which would reasonably be expected to have a material affect on the Opinion.

    GMP has assumed that all conditions precedent to the completion of the Transaction can be satisfied in the time required and that all consents, exemptions or orders of third parties and relevant authorities will be obtained, without adverse condition or qualification, and that the Transaction can proceed as scheduled and without material additional cost to the Corporation or liability of the Corporation to third parties, that the procedures being followed to implement the Transaction are valid and effective, that all required documents will be distributed to the shareholders of the Corporation in accordance with applicable laws and that the disclosure in such documents will be accurate and will comply with the requirements of applicable laws.

    The Opinion is rendered on the basis of securities markets, economic, financial and general business conditions prevailing as at the date hereof and the condition and prospects, financial and otherwise, of the Corporation and its subsidiaries and affiliates, as they were reflected in the Information and as they have been represented to GMP in discussions with management, officers and directors of the Corporation. In its analyses and in preparing the Opinion, GMP made numerous


    assumptions with respect to industry performance, general business and economic conditions and other matters, many of which are beyond the control of GMP or any party involved in the Transaction and, while reasonable under current circumstances, may prove to be incorrect.

    The Opinion is not, and should not be construed as, a valuation of Energy Metals or SXR, or any of the assets or securities thereof. Furthermore, the Opinion is not, and should not be construed as, advice as to the price at which shares of the Corporation (before or after completion of the Transaction) may trade at any future date.

    The Opinion has been provided solely for the use of the Special Committee of the Board of Directors of the Corporation for the purposes of considering the Transaction and may not be used by any other person or relied upon by any other person or for any other purpose without the express prior written consent of GMP. The Opinion is given as of the date hereof and GMP disclaims any undertaking or obligation to advise any person of any change in any fact or matter affecting the Opinion that may come or be brought to GMP's attention after the date hereof. Without limiting the foregoing, in the event that there is any material change in any fact or matter affecting the Opinion after the date hereof, GMP reserves the right to change, modify or withdraw the Opinion. Any reference to the Opinion or the engagement of GMP by the Special Committee of Energy Metals is expressly prohibited without the express written consent of GMP.

    GMP believes that its analyses must be considered as a whole and that selecting portions of the analyses or the factors considered by GMP, without considering all factors and analyses together, could create a misleading view of the process underlying the Opinion. The preparation of an opinion is a complex process and is not necessarily susceptible to partial analysis or summary description. Any attempt to do so could lead to undue emphasis on any particular factor or analysis. This Opinion is not to be construed as a recommendation to any holder of common shares of Energy Metals as to whether to vote in favour of the Transaction.

    APPROACH TO FAIRNESS

    In connection with the Opinion, GMP has performed a variety of financial and comparative analyses. In arriving at the Opinion, GMP has not attributed any particular weight to any specific analysis or factor, but rather has made qualitative judgements based on our experience in rendering such opinions and on the circumstances and information as a whole.

    In coming to its determination of fairness, GMP applied a variety of financial metrics and performed a number of financial analyses to the assets of the Corporation and SXR, including, but not limited to historical trading, market comparables as well as precedent transaction analysis.

    CONCLUSION

    Based on and subject to the foregoing and such other factors as GMP considered relevant, GMP is of the opinion that, as of the date hereof, the Transaction is fair, from a financial point of view, to the Energy Metals Shareholders.

    Yours very truly,

    GMP SECURITIES L.P.

    NOTES TO THE PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
     
    Three months ended March 31, 2007 and year ended December 31, 2006
    (Unaudited)
    (expressed in United States dollars)

    1.

    BASIS OF PRESENTATION

           

    The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in connection with the proposed business combination whereby Uranium One Inc. and Energy Metals Corporation ("EMC") have agreed, subject to shareholder approval, to combine the business and assets of the two companies under a court approved plan of arrangement under the British Columbia Corporations Act and to continue operations under the name "Uranium One Inc."

           

    The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet of Uranium One Inc. (the "Company" or "Uranium One") as at March 31, 2007 and unaudited pro forma consolidated statements of operations for the three month period ended March 31, 2007 and for the year ended December 31, 2006 have been prepared by management, in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles ("Canadian GAAP"), for illustrative purposes only, to give effect to the business combination between Uranium One and EMC. These pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements include and have been compiled from:

           
    (a)

    A pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet combining the unaudited interim consolidated balance sheet of Uranium One as at March 31, 2007, the unaudited interim consolidated balance sheet of UrAsia as at March 31, 2007 and the unaudited interim consolidated balance sheet of EMC as at March 31, 2007.

           
    (b)

    A pro forma condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2007 combining:

           
    (i)

    the unaudited interim consolidated statement of operations of Uranium One for the three months ended March 31, 2007;

           
    (ii)

    the unaudited interim consolidated statement of operations of UrAsia for the three months ended March 31, 2007; and

           
    (iii)

    the unaudited interim consolidated statement of operations of EMC for the three months ended March 31, 2007.

           
    (c)

    A pro forma consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2006 combining:

           
    (i)

    the audited consolidated statement of operations of Uranium One for the year ended December 31, 2006;

           
    (ii)

    the audited consolidated statement of operations of UrAsia for the year ended July 31, 2006, the audited consolidated statement of operations of UrAsia for the five month period ended December 31, 2006 and less the unaudited consolidated statement of operations of UrAsia for the three months ended October 31, 2005 (see Schedule 3); and

           
    (iii)

    the unaudited consolidated statement of operations of EMC for the six month period ended December 31, 2006, the audited consolidated statement of operations of EMC for the year ended June 30, 2006 and less the unaudited consolidated statement of operations of EMC for the six month period ended December 31, 2005 (see Schedule 4).



    The pro forma consolidated balance sheet as at March 31, 2007 has been prepared as if the transactions described in Notes 3 and 4 had occurred on March 31, 2007. The pro forma consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and for the year ended December 31, 2006 have been prepared as if the transactions described in Notes 3 and 4 had occurred on January 1, 2006.

    It is management's opinion that these pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements present in all material respects, the transactions described in Notes 3 and 4, in accordance with Canadian GAAP. The accounting policies used in the preparation of these statements are consistent with Uranium One's accounting policies for the year ended December 31, 2006, with the exception of the adoption of CICA Section 1530, Comprehensive Income, CICA Section 3855, Financial Instruments — Recognition and Measurement, and CICA Section 3865, Hedges, which were adopted by Uranium One and UrAsia retroactively without restatement effective January 1, 2007 as described in Note 2 and Note 3, respectively, to each of the companies' unaudited interim consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2007. EMC has not adopted those standards as its year end is before October 31, 2006 as prescribed in the transitional provision of CICA 1530.10; thus the adoption is not required until June 30, 2007.

    The pro forma consolidated financial statements are not intended to reflect the results of operations or the financial position of Uranium One which would have actually resulted had the transactions been effected on the dates indicated. Actual amounts recorded upon consummation of the agreements will likely differ from those recorded in the unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statement information. Any potential synergies that may be realized and integration costs that may be incurred upon consummation of the transactions have been excluded from the unaudited pro forma financial statement information. Further, the pro forma financial information is not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that may be obtained in the future.

    The pro forma consolidated balance sheet has been prepared using the current rate method by converting the EMC balance sheet into U.S. dollars using the March 31, 2007 exchange rate of 1.1529 Canadian dollar to one U.S. dollar. The pro forma consolidated statements of operations have been prepared by converting the operations of EMC for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and the year ended December 31, 2006 into U.S. dollars using the average exchange rates for the periods of 1.1716 and 1.1343 Canadian dollars to one U.S. dollar, respectively. The purchase price has been prepared by converting the value of the Uranium One's shares to be exchanged for EMC's shares as of the date of the definitive agreement signing on June 3, 2007 at the closing exchange rate of 1.0580.

    Certain elements of the Uranium One, UrAsia and EMC consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to provide a consistent format. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the respective historical financial statements, and notes thereto, of Uranium One, UrAsia and EMC.

    2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

    The accounting policies used in the preparation of these unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements are those set out in UrAsia's audited consolidated financial statements for the period ended December 31, 2006, with the exception of the adoption of CICA Section 1530, Comprehensive Income, CICA Section 3855, Financial Instruments — Recognition and Measurement, and CICA Section 3865, Hedges, which were adopted by Uranium One and UrAsia retroactively without restatement effective January 1, 2007 as described in Note 2 and Note 3, respectively, to each of the companies' unaudited interim consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2007. EMC has not currently adopted those standards as its most recent financial year end is before October 31, 2006 as prescribed in the transitional provisions of the standards. Pro forma adjustment (c) as described in Note 5 to the pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements reflects the effect of EMC retroactively adopting the applicable CICA sections without restatement effective January 1, 2007. In preparing the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements a review was undertaken to identify accounting policy differences where the impact was potentially material and could be reasonably estimated. The significant accounting policies of EMC conform in all material respects to those of UrAsia.



    3. ACQUISITION OF ENERGY METALS CORPORATION

    On June 3, 2007, Uranium One and EMC entered into a definitive agreement whereby Uranium One agreed to acquire all of the outstanding common shares and options to purchase common shares of EMC. Under the agreement, Uranium One will exchange 1.15 common shares of Uranium One for one common share of EMC. A total of approximately 99.3 million Uranium One common shares is assumed to be issued in exchange for 86.3 million EMC common shares.

    Immediately following the exchange, assuming that all EMC options are exchanged and exercised, approximately 78% of Uranium One's outstanding common shares would be held by Uranium One shareholders and approximately 22% would be held by former EMC shareholders. Accordingly, Uranium One is the acquirer for accounting purposes.

    The cost of acquisition includes the fair value of the deemed issuance of 99.3 million Uranium One common shares at $15.06 per share, plus 7.8 million stock options of Uranium One, of which 5.6 million are exercisable at the date of acquisition, exchanged for those of Uranium One with an average exercise price of $5.47 per share and a fair value of $72.5 million, plus Uranium One's estimated transaction costs of $8.0 million, providing a total preliminary purchase price of $1,575.2 million.

    As defined by the agreement, all outstanding EMC warrants are to be exercised for EMC common shares prior to the effective date of the transaction. As a result, the outstanding EMC warrants have been converted into the equivalent number of EMC common shares and included in the deemed issuance of the Uranium One common shares for the purposes of determining the purchase price consideration.

    The value of the Uranium One common shares issued was calculated using the weighted average share price of Uranium One's shares two days before, the day of, and two days after the date of the announcement of the agreement. The following assumptions were used for the Black-Scholes option pricing model for fair valuation of the stock options:

      Risk-free interest rate 4.70%
      Expected volatility 55%
      Expected life 0.8 - 5 years
      Dividend rate Nil

    The excess of the purchase consideration over the adjusted book values of EMC's assets and liabilities has been presented as unallocated purchase price. The fair value of all identifiable assets and liabilities acquired as well as any goodwill arising upon the acquisition will be determined by management in conjunction with an independent valuation. Therefore, it is likely that the fair values of assets and liabilities acquired will vary from the book values shown and the differences may be material.

    On completion of valuation, with corresponding adjustments to the carrying amounts of mining interests, or on recording of any finite life intangible assets on acquisition, these adjustments will impact the measurement of amortization recorded in the consolidated statements of operations of the combined company for periods after the date of acquisition. No adjustments have been reflected for any changes in future tax assets or liabilities that would result from recording EMC's identifiable assets and liabilities at fair value as the process of estimating the fair value of identifiable assets and liabilities is not complete.

    Based on the March 31, 2007 balance sheet of EMC, the preliminary allocation of purchase price, summarized in the table below in millions of dollars, is subject to change:


        $   
      Purchase price      
         99.3 million shares of Uranium One   1,494.7  
         Options of Uranium One   72.5  
         Acquisition costs   8.0  
          1,575.2  
             
      Net assets acquired      
         Cash and cash equivalents   76.5  
         Marketable securities   31.8  
         Accounts receivable   1.1  
         Other current assets   1.0  
         Mineral properties, plant and equipment   128.3  
         Other non-current assets   5.9  
         Accounts payable and accrued liabilities   (1.4 )
         Asset retirement obligations   (2.3 )
         Future income taxes   (28.5 )
         Unallocated purchase price   1,362.8  
             
          1,575.2  

    4. ACQUISITION OF URASIA ENERGY

    On February 11, 2007, Uranium One and UrAsia entered into a definitive arrangement agreement whereby Uranium One agreed to acquire all of the outstanding common shares of UrAsia. The UrAsia shareholders received 0.45 sxr common shares for each UrAsia common share. Each UrAsia warrant and stock option, which previously gave the holder the right to acquire common shares of UrAsia was exchanged for a warrant or stock option which gives the holder the right to acquire common shares of Uranium One on the same basis as the shareholders of UrAsia, with all other terms of such warrants and options (such as term and expiry) remaining unchanged.

    The shareholders of UrAsia approved the arrangement at a Special General Meeting and the transaction closed on April 20, 2007. As a result of the transaction, the combined company is held approximately 60% by UrAsia shareholders and approximately 40% by Uranium One shareholders. Accordingly, this business combination was accounted for as a reverse takeover under Canadian generally accepted accounting principles with UrAsia being identified as the acquirer and Uranium One as the acquiree.

    The cost of acquisition includes the fair value of the deemed issuance of 303.7 million UrAsia common shares at $5.57 per share, plus 9.3 million share purchase warrants of UrAsia exchanged for those of Uranium One with an average exercise price of $1.45 per share and a fair value of $39.2 million, plus 12.1 million stock options of UrAsia, of which 6.9 million are exercisable at the date of acquisition, exchanged for those of Uranium One with an average exercise price of $2.66 per share and a fair value of $26.3 million, plus 0.9 million restricted shares of UrAsia exchanged for those of Uranium One with a fair value of $5.0 million, plus the fair value of the equity component of the UrAsia convertible debenture exchanged for the sxr convertible debenture of $45.2 million, plus UrAsia's estimated transaction costs of $18.0 million, providing a total preliminary purchase price of $1,825.0 million.

    The value of the deemed issuance of UrAsia common shares was calculated using the weighted average share price of UrAsia shares two days before, the day of, and two days after the date of the announcement of the arrangement. The following assumptions were used for the Black-Scholes option pricing model for fair valuation of the stock options, warrants and restricted shares and equity component of the convertible debenture:

      Risk-free interest rate 3.94%
      Expected volatility 61%
      Expected life 0.6 - 4 years
      Dividend rate Nil


    The excess of the purchase consideration over the adjusted book values of Uranium One's assets and liabilities has been presented as "unallocated purchase price." The fair value of all identifiable assets and liabilities acquired as well as any goodwill arising upon the acquisition will be determined by management in conjunction with an independent valuation at the date of closing of the transaction. Therefore, it is likely that the fair values of assets and liabilities acquired will vary from the book values shown and the differences may be material.

    On completion of valuation, with corresponding adjustments to the carrying amounts of mining interests, or on recording of any finite life intangible assets on acquisition, these adjustments will impact the measurement of amortization recorded in the consolidated statements of operations of the combined company for periods after the date of acquisition. No adjustments have been reflected for any changes in future tax assets or liabilities that would result from recording Uranium One's identifiable assets and liabilities at fair value as the process of estimating the fair value of identifiable assets and liabilities is not complete.

    Based on the March 31, 2007 balance sheet of Uranium One, the preliminary allocation of purchase price, summarized in the table below in millions of dollars, is subject to change:

        $   
             
      Purchase price      
         303.7 million shares of UrAsia   1,691.3  
         Options, warrants and restricted shares of UrAsia   70.5  
         Equity component of convertible debenture   45.2  
         Acquisition costs   18.0  
             
          1,825.0  
             
      Net assets acquired      
         Current assets   320.5  
         Mineral properties, plant and equipment   326.0  
         Other non-current assets   4.1  
         Current liabilities   (79.7 )
         Convertible debentures   (113.0 )
         Other non-current liabilities   (4.7 )
         Future income taxes   (30.5 )
         Non-controlling interests   (11.4 )
         Unallocated purchase price   1,413.7  
             
          1,825.0  

    5. PRO FORMA ASSUMPTIONS AND ADJUSTMENTS

    Pro forma adjustments to consolidated balance sheet

    The unaudited pro forma consolidated balance sheet reflects the following adjustments as if the business combination between Uranium One, EMC and UrAsia had occurred on March 31, 2007:

      (a)

    To record 100% exercise of EMC's share warrants prior to the effective date of the EMC transaction as defined by the agreement.

         
      (b)

    To record the acquisition of EMC at a purchase price of $1,575,200 and the elimination of the shareholders' equity of EMC and Uranium One's transaction cost of this acquisition. The unallocated purchase price of EMC's net assets is recorded as a long-term asset on the pro forma balance sheet in the amount of $1,352.8 million; the amount will be allocated to mineral properties, plant and equipment and/or goodwill after an independent valuation of the acquired properties has been completed.




      (c)

    To record the pro forma effect to EMC's financial statements of retroactively adopting the applicable CICA sections 1530, 3855 and 3865 without restatement effective January 1, 2007.

         
      (d)

    To record the acquisition of Uranium One at a purchase price of $1,825,000 and the elimination of the shareholders' equity of Uranium One. The unallocated purchase price of Uranium One's net assets is recorded as a long-term asset on the pro forma balance sheet in the amount of $1,413,700; the amount will be allocated to mineral properties, plant and equipment and/or goodwill after an independent valuation of the acquired properties has been completed.

    Pro forma adjustments to consolidated statements of operations

    The unaudited pro forma consolidated statements of operations reflect the following adjustments as if the business combination between Uranium One, EMC and UrAsia had occurred on January 1, 2006:

      (e)

    An increase to interest and accretion expenses arising from the issuance of Uranium One convertible debentures as if the debentures had been issued on January 1, 2006.

         
      (f)

    No future income tax credit has been recorded on the pro forma interest adjustment in (e). The Company's management believes that its net future income tax assets are not more likely than not to be realized.
