EXPLANATORY NOTE

 

This Registration Statement on Form S-8 (this “Registration Statement”) is being filed to register shares of common stock of Uranium Royalty Corp. (the “Company”) that may be issued to employees, consultants or outside directors of the Company or its subsidiaries pursuant to future grants of equity-based awards under the Uranium Royalty Corp. 2026 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “LTIP”). The maximum number of shares of the Company’s common stock that may be delivered pursuant to awards granted under the LTIP is 37,721,062. The LTIP also provides that, to the extent an award under the LTIP is forfeited, expires, is canceled or surrendered, or otherwise terminates without the issuance of the underlying shares, in whole or in part, the shares subject to such award may again be awarded under the LTIP; provided, however, that shares withheld or delivered to satisfy the exercise price of an option or applicable tax withholding obligations will not again become available for awards under the LTIP.

Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

 

Section 102(b)(7) of the Delaware General Corporation Law (as amended, the “DGCL”) authorizes corporations to limit or eliminate the personal liability of directors and officers to corporations and their stockholders for monetary damages for breaches of their fiduciary duties, subject to certain exceptions. The Company’s Certificate of Incorporation, as amended (the “Certificate of Incorporation”), provides that no director or officer shall be liable to the Company or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director or officer, except for liability (i) for any breach of the director or officer’s duty of loyalty to the Company or the Company’s stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions of a director or officer not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) of a director under Section 174 of the DGCL, (iv) for any transaction from which a director or officer derived an improper personal benefit or (v) of an officer in any action by or in the right of the Company. The Company’s Certificate of Incorporation also provides that if the DGCL is amended to authorize corporate action further eliminating or limiting the personal liability of directors or officers, then the liability of a director or officer shall be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL, as so amended.

 

Section 145 of the DGCL (“Section 145”) provides that a Delaware corporation may indemnify any person who was, is or is threatened to be made, party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of such corporation), by reason of the fact that such person is or was an officer, director, employee or agent of such corporation or is or was serving at the request of such corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation or enterprise. The indemnity may include expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding, provided that such person acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the corporation’s best interests and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe that such person’s conduct was illegal and that no indemnification is permitted without judicial approval if the officer, director, employee or agent is adjudged to be liable to the corporation.

 

Section 145 further authorizes a corporation to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation or enterprise, against any liability asserted against such person and incurred by such person in any such capacity, or arising out of such person’s status as such, whether or not the corporation would otherwise have the power to indemnify such person under Section 145.

 

The Company’s Certificate of Incorporation provides that the Company shall, to the fullest extent permitted by Section 145 of the DGCL, as the same may be amended and supplemented, indemnify and advance expenses to, any person who is a current or former director, officer, employee or agent of the Company from and against any and all of the expenses, liabilities or other matters referred to in or covered by such section.

 

The Company’s Amended and Restated Bylaws (the “Bylaws”) require the Company to indemnify and advance expenses to the Company’s current and former directors and officers, as well as certain persons serving, at the Company’s request, at another entity as a director, officer, employee, fiduciary or agent.

 

 

 

 

The indemnification rights set forth above shall not be exclusive of any other right which an indemnified person may have or hereafter acquire under any statute, provision of the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise.

 

The Company maintains a general liability insurance policy that covers certain liabilities of the Company’s directors and officers arising out of claims based on acts or omissions in the person’s capacity as a director or officer.

 

The Company has entered into indemnification agreements and employment agreements with its directors and its executive officers, respectively, pursuant to which it has agreed to indemnify such persons against any liability, damage, cost or expense incurred in connection with the defense of any action, suit or proceeding to which such persons are a party to the extent permitted by applicable law, subject to certain exceptions.

Item 9. Undertakings.

 

(a) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

 

(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

 

(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;

 

 

 

 

(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement;

 

(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;

 

provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement.

 

(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

 

(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

 

(b) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

 

(h) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
