RECITALS

SUMITOMO and STRATHMORE wish to pursue a joint venture, the initial purpose of which will be the undertaking and completion of a Feasibility Study with respect to the Roca Honda Property and Mill Property and obtaining all Permits required for uranium mining operations of the Company at the Roca Honda Property.

In the event of a Positive Final Investment Decision by both SUMITOMO and STRATHMORE, SUMITOMO and STRATHMORE wish to pursue together through the joint venture the development and mining of uranium within and at the Roca Honda Property and the marketing and sale of processed uranium.

Following a Positive Final Investment Decision, the Members may mutually determine that STRATHMORE shall contribute the Mill Assets to the Company and that the Company shall construct and operate a uranium ore processing mill on the Mill Property.

STRATHMORE and SUMITOMO wish to form and operate a limited liability company under the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act, 6 Del. C. § 18-101 et seq.

ARTICLE III
CONTRIBUTIONS BY MEMBERS

3.1

Members’ Contributions.

(a)

Within 30 days of the Effective Date, STRATHMORE shall: (i) contribute to the capital of the Company the Assets described in Exhibit (other than the Permits described in Section 3.1(a)(ii) below), free and clear of all Liens and other Encumbrances other than Approved Title Exceptions; and (ii) contribute to the capital of the Company all Permits issued to any Person other than the Company to the extent applicable to the Properties and Operations thereon (including arranging for any required segregation and, to the extent applicable and allowed by Governmental Authorities, transfer or reissuance of Permits to the Company solely as to the Roca Honda Property), provided that in the case of the minimum disturbance drilling permit issued to STRATHMORE by the State of New Mexico with respect to Section 16 of the Roca Honda Property, STRATHMORE shall use its best efforts to contribute and transfer such permit to the Company as soon as possible following the Effective Date. In connection with such contribution by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall (1) execute, deliver and acknowledge deeds, assignments and other conveyance documents (each in the form and substance acceptable to SUMITOMO); (2) pay all applicable real property transfer, documentary stamp and similar taxes, any recording charges and fees, as well as any real property or other taxes, rents, utilities and assessments and other charges applicable to the Properties and Operations thereon for the period up to the date of contribution (and complete all forms and returns required in connection therewith); (3) deliver to the Company an estoppel certificate (dated not more than 10 days prior to the date of such contribution) from each lessor or counterparty under each lease, mining claim and appurtenant interest set forth in Exhibit A (which estoppel certificate shall be in form and substance acceptable to SUMITOMO); (4) deliver to the Company an affidavit pursuant to Section 1445 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”); (5) deliver to the Company such affidavits, indemnities and information as a title insurance company selected by SUMITOMO shall require in order to insure the Company’s title to the Roca Honda Property in accordance with this Agreement; (6) if applicable, deliver to the Company a non-disturbance and a recognition agreement from each holder of a superior estate in the Roca Honda Property (which agreement shall be in form and substance acceptable to SUMITOMO); and (7) deliver to the Company a consent (including, without limitation, the consents specified in Exhibit A-1) to such contribution from each party having a right to consent (or which failure to consent would constitute a default) under each lease, mining claim and appurtenant interest set forth in Exhibit A (which consent shall be in form and substance acceptable to SUMITOMO). Such documents required pursuant to clauses (1) through (7) above, as finalized and mutually agreed by the Members, are hereinafter referred to collectively as the “Roca Honda Property Conveyance Documents”. For clarity, SUMITOMO’s respective Ownership Interests shall not be diluted as a result of the capital contribution made by STRATHMORE pursuant to this Section 3.1(a).

If STRATHMORE shall fail to convey the Assets to the Company as and when required hereunder, in addition to any other remedy of the Company or SUMITOMO available hereunder, at Law or in equity, SUMITOMO shall have the right to equitable relief in the form of specific performance (or any similar equitable remedy) to require STRATHMORE to convey such Assets. STRATHMORE acknowledges that the Assets are unique and that monetary damages for the failure of STRATHMORE to convey such Assets shall not be an adequate remedy and STRATHMORE hereby waives, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law, and agrees not to assert as a defense in any such action seeking equitable relief that money damages are a sufficient remedy.

Upon STRATHMORE’s contribution to the Company of the Assets, 150% of the Lump-sum Contribution (and, if applicable, the Additional Lump-sum Contribution) (the “STRATHMORE Initial Contribution Amount”) shall be credited to STRATHMORE’s Capital Account with the Company as of the date on which the amount of the Lump-Sum Contribution (and, if applicable, the Additional Lump-sum Contribution) is determined.

(b)

Prior to the Final Investment Decision, STRATHMORE and SUMITOMO each shall be obligated to contribute funds to the Company in proportion to their respective Ownership Interests pursuant to capital calls by the Manager based on an adopted Program and Budget for the undertaking and completion of the Feasibility Study and obtaining of all Permits, provided that, subject to the terms of this Agreement, such funds shall not exceed in the aggregate $27,215,000 as reflected in Exhibit H.

(c)

Following a Positive Final Investment Decision by both SUMITOMO and STRATHMORE, only SCC and ▇▇▇▇ shall actually contribute funds to the Company in proportion to their respective Ownership Interests pursuant to capital calls by the Manager based on an adopted Program and Budget, until the aggregate capital contributions made by SUMITOMO collectively following such Positive Final Investment Decision shall amount to the Lump-sum Contribution, which shall be credited to the respective capital accounts of SCC and ▇▇▇▇ with the Company in proportion to their respective contributions as of each date so contributed. For clarity, STRATHMORE’s Ownership Interest shall not be diluted as a result of the Lump-sum Contribution paid by SUMITOMO.

(d)

Upon the construction and operation of the Regional Mill, at such time as the Company enters into a tolling agreement with the Regional Mill for the processing of the Company’s uranium ore, SCC and ▇▇▇▇ collectively shall contribute to the Company, in proportion to their respective Ownership Interests, an aggregate amount equal to the Additional Lump-sum Contribution, subject to the proviso and other terms in Section 3 of Exhibit G.

(e)

As soon as capital expenditures of the Company shall exceed the Lump-sum Contribution (and if applicable, the Additional Lump-sum Contribution) by SUMITOMO, each Member shall contribute funds to the Company based on adopted Programs and Budgets in proportion to their respective Ownership Interests.

3.2

Conditions to Final Investment Decision. Each Member shall make a decision in its sole and absolute discretion concerning whether the Company should pursue Development of the Roca Honda Property pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement (a “Final Investment Decision”) after the following conditions precedent (collectively, the “Conditions”) have been met through each Member’s receipt of: (i) a Feasibility Study with respect to the Project (including, without limitation, a life of mine plan (the “Life of Mine Plan”); (ii) sufficient evidence from the other Members that the other Members are capable of funding the Project as required by the terms of this Agreement; (iii) a Sales and Marketing Agreement; (iv) a finalized tolling agreement with an owner or operator of an uranium ore processing mill mutually agreed upon by the Members (the “Tolling Agreement”), pursuant to which Product resulting from the Company’s mining operations shall be processed; (v) such finalized Project Construction Contracts as reasonably could be expected to be entered into by the Company upon a Positive Final Investment Decision; (vi) all other finalized agreements (including a finalized management agreement to be entered into between the Manager and the Company) necessary for the Project; (vii) confirmation that STRATHMORE shall have complied with all covenants and agreements set forth in this Agreement; and (viii) sufficient evidence of receipt by the Company from the appropriate Governmental Authorities of all Permits required for all Company uranium mining operations, including all Permits required by the State of New Mexico. All such Permits shall be applied for and obtained in the name of the Company. The Members shall take, and cause their respective Affiliates to take, all such reasonable and lawful action as may be necessary or appropriate for the Conditions to be met.

3.3

Final Investment Decision.

(a)

If, within 45 days following satisfaction of all of the Conditions, each of SUMITOMO and STRATHMORE determines that the Company should pursue Development of the Roca Honda Property pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each Member shall be deemed to have made a “Positive Final Investment Decision,” subject to the satisfaction of the items set forth in subsection (b) below, it being understood that if any of the items set forth in subsection (b) cannot be satisfied, SUMITOMO shall have the right to revoke in writing their Positive Final Investment Decision, such right to be exercised within 30 days after STRATHMORE gives notice that one or more such Conditions cannot be satisfied.

(b)

If a Positive Final Investment Decision is made by each of SUMITOMO and STRATHMORE, subject to the approval of the board of directors of each Member, then, on a date to be agreed by the Members (or, if not agreed, a date which is 30 days following the date of the Positive Final Investment Decision), the following shall occur (the “Closing”): (i) the Company shall enter into a Sales and Marketing Agreement with SCC or SCC’s parent company, as determined by SCC; (ii) the Company shall enter into the Tolling Agreement with the owner or operator of the uranium ore processing mill mutually agreed upon by the Members; (iii) SUMITOMO shall agree in writing to make the Lump-sum Contribution pursuant to the terms of Section 3.1(c); and (iv) the Manager shall execute and deliver the Project Construction Contracts and authorize the contractors thereunder to commence work.

(c)

Prior to a Positive Final Investment Decision by SUMITOMO, (i) SUMITOMO shall have the unilateral right in their sole discretion to withdraw from the Company by Notice to STRATHMORE of the effective date of such withdrawal, or (ii) the Members may unanimously agree to no longer pursue Development of the Roca Honda Property. In either such event, SUMITOMO shall be deemed resigning Members and subject to Section 18.3(b).

3.4

Determination to Pursue Mill Construction. Following a Positive Final Investment Decision, the Members may mutually determine that STRATHMORE shall contribute the Assets described in Exhibit A-2 (the “Mill Assets”) to the Company and that the Company shall construct and operate a uranium ore processing mill on the Mill Property. STRATHMORE covenants that it shall maintain ownership of the Mill Property in fee simple and good and indefeasible title to the Mill Property free and clear of all Encumbrances except Approved Title Exceptions.

ARTICLE IV
CAPITAL ACCOUNTS AND ALLOCATIONS

4.1

Capital Accounts.

(a)

Establishment and Maintenance of Capital Accounts. A separate Capital Account shall be established for each Member on the books of the Company reflecting such Member’s capital contributions to the Company. Each Member’s Capital Account shall be: (i) increased by any additional capital contributions made by such Member to the Company pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and such Member’s share of Net Gain and other items of income and gain allocated to such Member pursuant to Section 4.2; (ii) decreased by such Member’s share of Net Loss and other items of loss, deduction and expense allocated to such Member pursuant to Section 4.2 and the aggregate amount of all Distributable Cash distributed to such Member; and (iii) maintained in all respects in accordance with section 704(b) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations issued thereunder. Any references in this Agreement to the Capital Account of a Member shall be deemed to refer to such Capital Account as the same may be increased or decreased from time to time as set forth above.

(b)

Negative Capital Accounts. Except as may be required by the Act or any other applicable Law, no Member shall be required to pay to the Company or the other Member any deficit or negative balance which may exist from time to time in such Member’s capital account.

(c)

Company Capital. No Member shall be paid interest on any capital contribution to the Company or on such Member’s Capital Account, and no Member shall have any right (i) to demand the return of such Member’s capital contribution or any other distribution from the Company (whether upon resignation, withdrawal or otherwise), except upon dissolution of the Company pursuant to Article XVIII hereof, or (ii) to cause a partition of the Company’s assets.

(d)

Capital Account Adjustment. If the Members so agree, upon the occurrence of an event described in Treas. Reg. § 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f)(5), the Capital Accounts shall be restated in accordance with Treas. Reg. § 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f) to reflect the manner in which unrealized income, gain, loss or deduction inherent in the assets of the Company (that has not been reflected in the Capital Accounts previously) would be allocated between the Members if there were a taxable disposition of such assets for their fair market values, as determined in accordance with Section 4.1(a). For purposes of Section 4.1(a), a Member shall be treated as contributing the portion of the book value of any property that is credited to the Member’s Capital Account pursuant to the preceding sentence.

(e)

Accounting for Distribution in Kind. For purposes of maintaining Capital Accounts when Company property is distributed in kind: (a) the Company shall treat such property as if it had been sold for its fair market value on the date of distribution; (b) any difference between such fair market value and the Company’s prior book value in such property for Capital Account purposes shall constitute Net Gain or Net Loss, as the case may be, for the Allocation Period ending on and including the date of such distribution and shall be allocated to the Capital Accounts of the Members pursuant to Section 4.2; and (c) each Member’s Capital Account shall be reduced by the fair market value of the property distributed to such Member (net of any liabilities secured by such distributed property that such Member is considered to assume or take subject to under Section 752 of the Code).

4.2

Allocations of Net Gains and Net Losses.

(a)

Except as otherwise provided in Section 4.2(b), Net Gains and Net Losses for each Fiscal Year (or other Allocation Period) shall be allocated in a manner such that the Capital Account of each Member, immediately after making such allocation, and after taking into account actual distributions made during, or with respect to, such Fiscal Year (or Allocation Period) is, as nearly as possible, equal (proportionately) to the distributions that would be made to such Member pursuant to Section 18.4(b) if the Company were dissolved, its affairs wound up and its assets sold for cash equal to their book value, all Company liabilities were satisfied (limited with respect to each nonrecourse liability to the book value of the assets securing such liability) and the net assets of the Company were distributed in accordance with Section 18.4(b) to the Members immediately after making such allocation. Subject to the other provisions of this Article IV, an allocation to a Member of a share of Net Gain or Net Loss shall be treated as an allocation of the same share of each item of income, gain, loss or deduction that is taken into account in computing Net Gain or Net Loss. As used herein, references to “book value” are references to, in the case of Book Property, the value of such Book Property as set forth in the books of the Company, in accordance with the principles of Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(g) and, in the case of property other than Book Property, the adjusted tax basis of such property.

(b)

Prior to the making of any allocation under Section 4.2(a), the following allocations shall be made in the following order:

(i)

Any non-recourse deduction (within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(b)(1)) for an Allocation Period of the Company shall be allocated to the Members in accordance with their respective Capital Accounts at the beginning of such period. If there is a net decrease in the Company’s minimum gain (as defined in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(d)) during a Fiscal Year of the Company, then items of income and gain for such Fiscal Year (and, if necessary, for subsequent periods) shall be allocated to the Members in the manner and to the extent required by Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(f). This clause is intended to constitute a “minimum gain chargeback” as provided by Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(f), and this clause shall be construed accordingly.

(ii)

Any partner nonrecourse deduction (within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(2)) shall be allocated in the manner specified in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(1), and, subject to the exceptions set forth in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(4), if there is a net decrease in partner nonrecourse debt minimum gain (within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Sections 1.704-2(i)(2) and 1.704-2(i)(3)) during a Fiscal Year attributable to a partner nonrecourse debt (within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(b)(4)), then each Member with a share of partner nonrecourse debt minimum gain attributable to such partner nonrecourse debt, determined in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(5), shall be specially allocated items of income and gain for such Fiscal Year (and, if necessary, for subsequent periods) in an amount equal to such Member’s share of the net decrease in partner nonrecourse debt minimum gain for such period attributable to such partner nonrecourse debt (which share of such net decrease shall be determined under Treasury Regulations Sections 1.704-2(i)(4) and 1.704-2(g)(2)). This clause is intended to constitute a “chargeback of partner nonrecourse debt minimum gain” as provided by Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(4), and this clause shall be construed accordingly.

(iii)

In the event that a Member unexpectedly receives any adjustment, allocation or distribution described in Treasury Regulations Sections 1.704-1 (b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5) or (6), items of Company income and gain (consisting of a pro rata portion of each item of Company income, including gross income, and gain) shall be specially allocated to such Member in the manner required by Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d) to eliminate, to the extent required by such regulation, the deficit in the Adjusted Capital Account of such Member as quickly as possible. This clause is intended to constitute a “qualified income offset” as provided by Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d), and this clause shall be construed accordingly.

(iv)

If the allocation of any item of income, gain, deduction or loss under this Agreement (A) does not have substantial economic effect under Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2) and (B) is not in accordance with the Members’ interests in the Company within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(3), then such item shall be reallocated in such manner as (1) either to have substantial economic effect or to be in accordance with the Members’ interests in the Company and (2) to result as nearly as possible in the respective balances of the Capital Accounts that would have been obtained if such item had instead been allocated under the provisions of this Agreement without giving effect to the provisions of this clause (iv).

(v)

If any amount is allocated pursuant to clause (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) of this Section 4.2(b), then, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement (but subject to the provisions of clauses (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) of this Section 4.2(b)), income, gain, deduction and loss, or items thereof, thereafter shall be allocated in such manner and to such extent as may be necessary so that, after such allocation, the respective balances of the Capital Accounts as nearly as possible shall equal the balances that would have been obtained if the amount allocated pursuant to such clause (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) and the amount allocated pursuant to this clause (v) instead had been allocated under the provisions of this Agreement without giving effect to the provisions of such clause (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) or this clause (v).

4.3

Allocation of Taxable Income and Loss.

(a)

Except as otherwise provided in this Section 4.3, the taxable income or loss of the Company (and items thereof) for any Allocation Period shall be allocated among the Members in proportion to and in the same manner as Net Gain, Net Loss and separate items of income, gain, loss and deduction are allocated among the Members for Capital Account purposes pursuant to the provisions of Section 4.2.

(f)

Vote Required. When a quorum is present, the affirmative vote of the Members holding a majority of the Ownership Interests present in person or represented by proxy at a duly called meeting and entitled to vote on the subject matter shall be the act of the Members unless the question is one upon which by the provisions of the Act or of this Agreement a different vote is required, in which case such provision shall govern and control the decision of such question. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no action for which a unanimous vote of the Management Committee is required by Section shall be effective as an action of the Members unless there is a unanimous vote for such matter at the Member meeting. In addition to the matters listed in Section , amendment of this Agreement shall require unanimous vote of the Members except as contemplated by the last sentence of Section 6.4.

(g)

If action is so taken without a meeting by less than unanimous written consent of the Members, a copy of such written consent shall be delivered promptly to all Members who have not consented in writing. Any action taken pursuant to such written consent or consents of the Members shall have the same force and effect as if taken by the Members at a meeting of the Members.

(i)

Audio/Video Conferences. In lieu of meetings in person, any meeting of the Members may be conducted by telephone or video conference in the manner described in Section . Any action taken in such a conference call shall be deemed action taken at a meeting of the Members.

(j)

For purposes of determining the Members entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of Members, the Manager may set a record date, which shall not be less than two nor more than 60 days before (a) the date of the meeting or (b) in the event that approvals are sought without a meeting, the date by which Members are requested in writing by the Manager on behalf of the Members to give such approvals.

(a)

No Member shall Transfer any beneficial interest in the Company except in conjunction with the Transfer of part or all of its Ownership Interest and in an amount or percentage equal to such transferred Ownership Interest.

(b)

No transferee of all or any part of a Member’s Ownership Interest shall have the rights of a Member unless and until the transferring Member has provided to the other Members notice of the Transfer, and, except as provided in Subsections and , the transferee, as of the effective date of the Transfer, has committed in writing to assume and be bound by this Agreement to the same extent as the transferring Member.

(c)

No Member shall make a Transfer that shall violate any Law, or result in the cancellation of any Permits, licenses or other similar authorization, unless the effect of such Transfer shall have been made known to the other Members and the other Members shall have consented thereto. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, no Member shall effect any Transfer that shall require approval by any Governmental Authority unless such approval shall have been obtained at such transferring Member’s sole cost and expense.

(d)

No Transfer permitted by this Article shall relieve the transferring Member of any liability of such transferring Member under this Agreement to the extent arising from and relating to periods before such Transfer.

(e)

Any Member that makes a Transfer that shall cause termination of the tax partnership established by Section shall indemnify the other Members for, from and against any and all loss, cost, expense, damage, liability or claim therefore arising from the Transfer, including without limitation any increase in taxes, interest and penalties or decrease in credits caused by such termination and any tax on indemnification proceeds received by the indemnified Members.

(f)

In the event of a Transfer of less than all of an Ownership Interest, the transferring Member and its transferee shall act and be treated as one Member under this Agreement; provided that in order for such Transfer to be effective, the transferring Member and its transferee must first: (i) agree, as between themselves, that one of them is authorized to act as the sole agent (“Agent”) on their behalf with respect to all matters pertaining to this Agreement and the Company; and (ii) notify the other Members of the designation of the Agent, and in such notice warrant and represent to the other Members that: (A) the Agent has the sole authority to act on behalf of, and to bind, the transferring Member and its transferee with respect to all matters pertaining to this Agreement and the Company; (B) the other Members may rely on all decisions of, notices and other communications from, and failures to respond by, the Agent, as if given (or not given) by the transferring Member and its transferee; and (C) all decisions of, notices and other communications from, and failures to respond by, the other Members to the Agent shall be deemed to have been given (or not given) to the transferring Member and its transferee. The transferring Member and its transferee may change the Agent (but such replacement must be one of them) by giving notice to the other Members, which notice must conform to Section 9.2(f)(ii).

(g)

Without the unanimous consent of the Members, no Transfer consisting of the direct or indirect grant of an Encumbrance on an Ownership Interest of a Member shall be effected except that any Transfer consisting of the grant of an Encumbrance on an Ownership Interest shall be permitted to secure a loan or other indebtedness of a Member in a bona fide transaction in connection with such Member’s financing of payment or performance of such Member’s obligations under this Agreement, provided that such Transfer shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement and the rights and interests of the other Members hereunder. Any such Encumbrance shall be further subject to the condition that the holder of such Encumbrance (“Chargee”) first enters into a written agreement with the other Members in form satisfactory to the other Members, acting reasonably, binding upon the Chargee, to the effect that:

(i)

The Chargee shall not enter into possession or institute any proceedings for foreclosure or partition of the encumbering Member’s Ownership Interest and that such Encumbrance shall be subject to the provisions of this Agreement;

(ii)

The Chargee’s remedies under the Encumbrance shall be limited to the sale of the whole (but only of the whole) of the encumbering Member’s Ownership Interest to the other Members, or, failing such a sale, at a public auction to be held at least 30 days after prior notice to the other Members, such sale to be subject to the purchaser entering into a written agreement with the other Members whereby such purchaser assumes all obligations of the encumbering Member under the terms of this Agreement. The price of any preemptive sale to the other Member shall be the fair market value (as determined below) of the Ownership Interest securing the Encumbrance, and such preemptive sale shall occur within 60 days of the Chargee’s notice to the other Members of its intent to sell the encumbering Member’s Ownership Interest. Failure of a sale to the other Members to close by the end of such period, unless failure is caused by the encumbering Member or by the Chargee, shall permit the Chargee to sell the encumbering Member’s Ownership Interest at a public sale. Fair market value shall be determined by a qualified independent appraiser appointed by the non-encumbering Members. If the encumbering Member conveys notice of objection to the person so appointed within 10 days after receiving notice thereof, then an independent and qualified appraiser shall be appointed by the joint action of the appraiser appointed by the non-encumbering Members and a qualified independent appraiser appointed by the encumbering Member; provided that if the encumbering Member fails to designate a qualified independent appraiser for such purpose within 10 days after giving notice of such objection, then the person originally designated by the non-encumbering Member shall serve as the appraiser; provided, further, that if the appraisers appointed by each of the Members fail to appoint a third qualified independent appraiser within 5 days after the appointment of the last of them, then an appraiser shall be appointed by a judge of a court of competent jurisdiction in the state in which the Assets are situated upon the application of any Member; and

(iii)

The charge shall be subordinate to any then-existing debt, including any Project Financing previously approved by the Management Committee, encumbering the transferring Member’s Ownership Interest.

(h)

Any Member may Transfer all of its Ownership Interest to an Affiliate, provided that any relevant Parent Guarantee remains in effect, the Affiliate assumes all of the transferor Member’s obligations hereunder and arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the non-transferring Members shall have been made to avoid any negative effect on any Permits. Any Member may Transfer a portion of its Ownership Interest to an Affiliate, provided that any relevant Parent Guaranty remains in effect, the transferring Member shall be the agent for the transferee and both the transferor and transferee shall act in common as if they were a single Member for all purposes hereunder and such partial Transfer shall have been conducted in a manner to avoid any negative effect on any Permits.

(i)

No Transfer of an Ownership Interest shall be permitted to be made over an established securities market or in other circumstances which would cause the Company to be treated as a "publicly traded partnership" for United States federal income tax purposes.

9.3

Preemptive and Co-Sale Rights. Any Transfer by any Member other than pursuant to Section 9.2(g) or Section 9.2(h) shall be subject to preemptive and co-sale rights of the other Members as provided in Exhibit .

If a Member defaults in making a contribution or capital call required by an adopted Program and Budget, the non-defaulting Members may, but shall not be obligated to, advance to the Company some portion or the entire amount in default on behalf of the defaulting Member (a “Cover Payment”). Each and every Cover Payment by a non-defaulting Member shall constitute a demand loan from such non-defaulting Member to the defaulting Member bearing interest from the date of the advance at the rate provided in Section . If more than one Cover Payment is made, the Cover Payments shall be aggregated and the rights and remedies described herein pertaining to an individual Cover Payment shall apply to the aggregated Cover Payments. The failure to repay such loan upon demand shall be a default. The defaulting Member shall remain liable to the Company as provided in Section 13.3 for any deficiency in a capital call that is not covered by a Cover Payment.

13.5

Remedies.

(a)

Upon a default in making a capital call, followed by a Cover Payment made by a non-defaulting Member, such non-defaulting Member shall be entitled to receive all distributions otherwise attributable to the Ownership Interest of the defaulting Member until such time as such non-defaulting Member has recovered 100% of the amount paid by the non-defaulting Member as a Cover Payment, plus interest accrued thereon as provided in Section 13.4. In order to secure the foregoing right, the defaulting Member grants to a non-defaulting Member making a Cover Payment a Lien upon its right to distributions. In order to pursue any remedy for a default, such non-defaulting Member must give the defaulting Member 30 days prior notice and opportunity to cure such default.

(b)

At any time following a Positive Final Investment Decision, the non-defaulting Members may elect to have the defaulting Member’s Ownership Interest diluted (or eliminated) by a percentage equal to the liability amount owed by the defaulting Member as a result of uncured default, divided by its then-current capital account balance. For purposes of this Section 13.5(b), the Ownership Interest of the non-defaulting Members shall be proportionately increased by the amount of the reduction in the Ownership Interest of the defaulting Member. Dilution under this Section 13.5(b) shall be effective as of the date of the original default. The amount of any Cover Payment under Section 13.4 and interest thereon, or any interest accrued in accordance with Section 13.3, shall be deemed to be amounts contributed by the non-defaulting Member making such Cover Payment, and not as amounts contributed by the defaulting Member. Whenever the Ownership Interests are recalculated pursuant to this Section 13.5(b), the capital accounts of all Members shall be adjusted to bear the same ratio to each other as their recalculated Ownership Interests, and the portion of capital account attributable to the reduced Ownership Interest of the defaulting Member shall be transferred proportionately to the other Members.

13.6

Audits.

(a)

Within 60 days after the end of each Fiscal Year, the Manager shall cause an audit to be completed by certified public accountants independent of the Manager. The audit shall be conducted in accordance with generally accepted accounting standards, consistently applied, as in effect in the United States from time to time and shall cover all books and records maintained by the Manager pursuant to this Agreement, all Assets and Encumbrances, and all transactions and Operations conducted during such Fiscal Year, including production and inventory records and all costs for which the Manager or its Affiliates sought reimbursement under this Agreement, together with all other matters customarily included in such audits. All written exceptions to and claims upon the Manager for discrepancies disclosed by such audit shall be made not more than 3 months after receipt of the audit report, unless any Member elects to conduct an independent audit pursuant to Subsection 13.6(b) which is ongoing at the end of such 3-month period, in which case such exceptions and claims may be made within the period provided in Subsection 13.6(b). Failure to make any such exception or claim within such period shall mean the audit is deemed to be correct and binding upon the Members. The cost of all audits under this Subsection shall be charged to the Business Account.

(b)

Notwithstanding the annual audit conducted by certified public accountants selected by the Manager, each Member shall have the right to have an independent audit of all Company books, records and accounts, including all charges to the Business Account. This audit shall review all issues raised by the requesting Member, with all costs borne by the requesting Member. The requesting Member shall give the other Members 30 days’ prior notice of such audit. Any audit conducted on behalf of any Member shall be made during the Manager’s normal business hours and shall not interfere with Operations. All written exceptions to and claims upon the Manager for discrepancies disclosed by such audit shall be made not more than 3 months after completion and delivery of such audit, or they shall be deemed waived.

ARTICLE XIV
OWNERSHIP INTEREST SALE

14.1

Ownership Interest Sale. The Members acknowledge that if any Member defaults pursuant to this Agreement (other than pursuant to Section 13.3), it will be difficult to measure the damages resulting from such default (it being hereby understood and agreed that the Members have attempted to determine such damages in advance and determined that the calculation of such damages cannot be ascertained with reasonable certainty). All Members acknowledge and recognize that the damage to the non-defaulting Members could be significant. In the event of such default, as reasonable liquidated damages, the non-defaulting Members may, with respect to any such default not cured within 30 days after notice to the defaulting Member of such default, elect to sell or cause the sale of all or any portion of the defaulting Member’s Ownership Interest. Such right shall be exercised in the manner provided by applicable Law or otherwise in a commercially reasonable manner and upon reasonable notice. If the non-defaulting Members elect to enforce their right pursuant to the terms of this subsection, the defaulting Member shall be deemed to have waived any available right of redemption, any required valuation or appraisal of the secured property prior to sale, any available right to stay execution or to require a marshaling of assets, and any required bond in the event a receiver is appointed, and the defaulting Member shall be liable for any deficiency.

ARTICLE XV
RIGHT OF FIRST OFFER

15.1

Right of First Offer. If STRATHMORE or any of its Affiliates intends to pursue any Contingent Project within the State of New Mexico (the “Offered Project Interest”) STRATHMORE shall promptly notify SUMITOMO of such intention (the “Project Offer Notice”). If SUMITOMO expresses an interest to participate in such Contingent Project by notice to STRATHMORE within 30 days after the receipt of the Project Offer Notice, STRATHMORE and SUMITOMO shall discuss such Contingent Project in good faith. If SUMITOMO elects not to participate in such Contingent Project, or is unable to consummate the agreement for such Contingent Project (the “Project Agreement”) within 90 days from the date the Project Offer Notice is delivered to SUMITOMO (the “Project Option Period”), STRATHMORE or its Affiliate may pursue such Contingent Project alone or in conjunction with others at a price and on terms no less favorable to STRATHMORE than those offered by SUMITOMO during the failed negotiation of the Project Agreement between STRATHMORE and SUMITOMO.

15.2

Recordable Memorandum. Within 30 days following the execution and delivery of this Agreement, STRATHMORE shall deliver to SUMITOMO a memorandum which evidences the rights held by SUMITOMO pursuant to Sections 15.1, in a form which is acceptable for recording in the land records of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ County, New Mexico.

15.3

Other New Mexico Projects.

(a)

If, at any time between the Effective Date and ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇, ▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ or any of its Affiliates initiates acquisition of any uranium mining site in New Mexico, SUMITOMO or its designated Affiliate shall be given the opportunity to participate in any project for the exploration and potential development and mining of uranium and/or other material within and at such site, at a price representing a pro rata portion of STRATHMORE’s costs for such project (and the same pro rata portion of STRATHMORE’s costs with respect to other projects in New Mexico since the Effective Date which STRATHMORE elected not to pursue) corresponding to SUMITOMO’s or its designated Affiliate’s participation interest.

(b)

Prior to ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇, ▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and SUMITOMO shall discuss whether SUMITOMO will include in their respective bi-annual budgets for the 2 year period beginning April 1, 2009 an expenditure to be paid to STRATHMORE representing SUMITOMO’s agreed pro rata portion of STRATHMORE’s anticipated acquisition, exploration and other related expenditures with respect to new uranium mining site projects in New Mexico during such 2 year period. If STRATHMORE and SUMITOMO are able to conclude such agreement, SUMITOMO shall be given the opportunity to participate in each such project at no additional cost to SUMITOMO (as they shall have already compensated STRATHMORE for the agreed pro rata portion of STRATHMORE’s costs for such project) and with SUMITOMO’s participation interest corresponding to their pro rata portion of such costs. The process described in this Section 15.3(b) shall be repeated for each SUMITOMO bi-annual budgetary period following March 31, 2011.

(c)

If STRATHMORE and SUMITOMO are unable to reach agreement regarding sharing of STRATHMORE’s anticipated acquisition, exploration and other related expenditures with respect to new uranium mining site projects in New Mexico during any SUMITOMO bi-annual budgetary period as provided in Section 15.3(b), such projects shall be deemed Contingent Projects within the State of New Mexico which shall become subject to Section 15.1.

15.4

Other Contingent Projects. If STRATHMORE or any of its Affiliates intends to pursue, alone or through a Business Combination, any Contingent Project anywhere in the world other than in the State of New Mexico, STRATHMORE shall promptly notify SUMITOMO of such intentions and STRATHMORE and SUMITOMO shall discuss a possible joint venture for such Contingent Project in good faith and if STRATHMORE and SUMITOMO fail to reach an agreement, STRATHMORE shall be permitted to pursue such Contingent Project alone or with others.

ARTICLE XVI

Royalties, Production Taxes and Other Payments Based on Production. All required payments of production royalties, taxes based on production of Products, and other payments out of production to private parties and governmental entities, shall be determined and made by the Company in a timely manner and otherwise in accordance with applicable Laws and agreements. The Manager shall furnish to the Members evidence of timely payment for all such required payments. In the event the Company fails to make any such required payment, any Member shall have the right to make such payment and shall thereby become subrogated to the rights of such third party; provided that the making of any such payment on behalf of the Company shall not constitute acceptance by the paying Member of any liability to such third party for the underlying obligation.

ARTICLE XVII
CONFIDENTIALITY, OWNERSHIP, USE AND DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION

17.1

Business Information. All Business Information shall be owned by the Company. Except as provided in Sections and , or with the prior written consent of the other Members, each Member shall keep confidential and not disclose to any third party or the public any portion of the Business Information that constitutes Confidential Information.

Permitted Disclosure of Confidential Business Information. A Member may disclose Business Information that is Confidential Information: (a) to such Member’s officers, directors, partners, members, employees, Affiliates, shareholders, agents, attorneys, accountants, consultants, contractors, subcontractors or advisors, for the sole purpose of such Member’s performance of its obligations under this Agreement; (b) to any party to whom the disclosing Member contemplates a Transfer of all or any part of its Ownership Interest in a manner and at a time permitted by this Agreement or to any party contemplating a transaction involving a change of control of Strathmore Minerals Corp., a Canadian public company, by way of a merger, acquisition, take-over, arrangement, amalgamation or other form of business combination, for the sole purpose of evaluating the proposed Transfer or change of control, provided that such proposed transferee has signed a confidentiality agreement for the benefit of the Company and the Members pursuant to which such proposed transferee agrees to be bound by the confidentiality provisions of this Agreement; and; (c) to any actual or potential lender, underwriter or investor for the sole purpose of evaluating whether to make a loan to or investment in the disclosing Member, provided that such party has signed a confidentiality agreement in customary form for the benefit of the Company and the other Member; provided further that no Confidential Information shall be provided by any Member to any Person if a Transfer to such Person requires the consent of the other Members pursuant to Article IX without first having obtained such consent pursuant to Article IX. The Member disclosing Confidential Information pursuant to this Section , shall disclose such Confidential Information to only those parties that have a bona fide need to have access to such Confidential Information for the purpose for which disclosure to such parties is permitted under this Section and that have agreed in writing supplied to, and enforceable by, the other Members to protect the Confidential Information from further disclosure, to use such Confidential Information solely for such purpose and to otherwise be bound by the provisions of this Article XVII. Such writing shall not preclude parties described in clause (b) of this Section from discussing and completing a Transfer with the other Member. The Member disclosing Confidential Information shall be responsible and liable for any use or disclosure of the Confidential Information by such parties in violation of this Agreement and such other writing.

17.3

Disclosure Required By Law.

(a)

Notwithstanding anything contained in this Article but subject to Section 17.3(b), a Member may disclose any Confidential Information if, in the reasonable opinion of the disclosing Member’s legal counsel: (a) such disclosure is legally required to be made in a judicial, administrative or governmental proceeding pursuant to a valid subpoena or other applicable order; or (b) such disclosure is legally required to be made pursuant to the rules or regulations of a stock exchange or similar trading market applicable to the disclosing Member. Prior to any disclosure of Confidential Information under this Section 17.3, the disclosing Member shall give the other Members at least 5 days’ prior written notice (unless less time is permitted by such rules, regulations or proceeding) and, in making such disclosure, the disclosing Member shall disclose only that portion of Confidential Information required to be disclosed and shall take all reasonable efforts to preserve the confidentiality thereof, including, without limitation, obtaining protective orders and supporting the other Members in intervention in any such proceeding. Any Member that files reports with any Governmental Authority shall request such confidential treatment or redactions of Confidential Information in its filings as may be available in accordance with such Governmental Authority procedures from time to time. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Article, a Member may disclose Confidential Information to a Governmental Authority in connection with tax matters to the extent that such information is required to be disclosed or reasonably relates to a determination of tax liability.(b)

(b)

STRATHMORE acknowledges and agrees that disclosure of any of the terms of Exhibit G and Exhibit H would seriously prejudice SUMITOMO’s interests, and that notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the contents of Exhibit G and Exhibit H are to be maintained as strictly confidential. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event STRATHMORE or its Affiliate reasonably determines, based upon the advice of counsel, that this agreement is a “material contract” as described in Section 12.2 of National Instrument 51-102 and is required to be filed on SEDAR, STRATHMORE shall omit, redact and delete Exhibit G and Exhibit H of this Agreement and all text contained therein from the copy of this Agreement filed on SEDAR.

ACCOUNTING GUIDELINES

Purpose.

These Accounting Guidelines set forth the agreed record keeping and accounting procedures relating to construction and commercial operation of the Project. Capitalized terms used herein and not defined herein shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Limited Liability Company Agreement to which this Exhibit is appended (the “LLC Agreement”).

Maintenance of Records.

The Manager shall develop, maintain and keep all necessary original or copies of accounting records, statistical information, and supporting documents in accordance with the longer of (a) the applicable record retention requirements of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (“NRC”) and (b) 6 years. Such records and supporting documents will be kept by the Manager at the principal office of the Manager wherever the same may be located from time to time. The Manager shall, during normal working hours and normally for a period of 3 consecutive years, make all such original or copies of records and supporting documents available at such principal office to appropriate personnel of the Company and the Members and, on written request by the Company or any Member, to its independent auditors and authorized representatives of any regulatory body or taxing authority having jurisdiction over the Company or such Member, for inspection, copying, audit and other proper business requirements.

GAAP. All accounts maintained by the Company shall be recorded in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and the requirements of the LLC Agreement and shall follow a format and report a level of detail consistent with the format of the applicable Budget.

Charge of Costs to the Company. All costs incurred by or for the benefit of the Company will be charged to the Company in accordance with an approved Budget. It is anticipated that the Company will have few employees and that employees of the Manager or its affiliates will be dedicated to the Company’s Operations and charged to the Company in accordance with approved Budgets. Legal fees for attorneys retained by the Manager for the Company will be billed to the Company or charged to the Company in accordance with an approved Budget. For personnel whose primary worksite is not the project location, office and general support costs will be proportionally allocated as set forth in an approved Budget. All costs will be at the Manager’s or its affiliate’s actual cost.

For employees of Strathmore Minerals Corp. (“SMC”), payroll (and related statutory withholds and benefits) and travel costs for SMC employees will be charged as set forth in an approved Budget. All such costs will be invoiced to the Company. There will be no reimbursement to SMC of office or general support costs. General management and non-specific oversight by SMC personnel will not be reimbursed.

Materials and supplies, purchased specifically for the Company by the Manager or SMC personnel whose primary worksite is not the project site, shall not be considered overhead but will be paid by the Company.

Changes in Accounting Procedures. In the event the Manager, in order to comply with any changes in GAAP, makes any change in its accounting procedures that would change the method of distribution or allocation of costs or expenses, the Manager shall notify the Members of the nature of the change and its estimated effect on costs or expenses related to the Project.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Guarantor hereby waives the right by statute or otherwise to require the Company or any Beneficiary to institute suit against Subsidiary Member or to exhaust any rights and remedies which the Company or any Beneficiary has or may have against Subsidiary Member. In this regard, Guarantor agrees that it is bound to the payment and performance of all Guaranteed Obligations, whether now existing or hereafter accruing, as fully as if such Guaranteed Obligations were directly owing to the Company by Guarantor. Guarantor further waives any defense arising by reason of any disability or other defense (other than the defense that the Guaranteed Obligations shall have been fully and finally performed and indefeasibly paid) of Subsidiary Member or by reason of the cessation from any cause whatsoever of the liability of Subsidiary Member in respect thereof.

(e)

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Guarantor hereby waives: (i) any rights to assert against the Company or any Beneficiary any defense (legal or equitable), set-off, counterclaim or claim which Guarantor may now or at any time hereafter have against Subsidiary Member or any other party liable to the Company or any Beneficiary; (ii) any defense, set-off, counterclaim or claim, of any kind or nature, arising directly or indirectly from the present or future lack of sufficiency, validity or enforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations or any security therefor; (iii) any defense based upon or arising out of an election of remedies by the Company or any Beneficiary; and (iv) the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting Guarantor’s liability hereunder or the enforcement thereof, and any act which shall defer or delay the operation of any statute of limitations applicable to the Guaranteed Obligations shall similarly operate to defer or delay the operation of such statute of limitations applicable to Guarantor’s liability hereunder.

(f)

All rights of Guarantor against Subsidiary Member arising as a result of any payment by Guarantor hereunder, whether by way of right of subrogation, contribution or otherwise, shall in all respects be subordinated and junior in right of payment to, and shall not be exercised by Guarantor unless and until, the prior final and indefeasible payment in full of all the Guaranteed Obligations.

(g)

This Agreement is a continuing guaranty and shall remain in effect until all of the obligations arising under this Agreement have been paid in full or otherwise satisfied or indefeasibly discharged. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Guarantor hereby waives any right to revoke this Agreement as to future obligations. If such a revocation is effective notwithstanding the foregoing waiver, Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that (i) no such revocation shall be effective until written notice thereof has been received by the Company and SUMITOMO, (ii) no such revocation shall apply to any Guaranteed Obligations in existence on such date (including, any subsequent continuation, extension or renewal thereof, or other change in the terms and conditions thereof), (iii) no such revocation shall apply to any Guaranteed Obligations made or created after such date to the extent made or created pursuant to a legally binding commitment of the Company in existence on the date of such revocation and (iv) such a revocation shall constitute an election by Subsidiary Member to forfeit its entire Ownership Interest under the LLC Agreement to SUMITOMO, as provided in the LLC Agreement.

(h)

Guarantor consents and agrees that, without notice to or by Guarantor and without affecting or impairing the obligations of Guarantor hereunder, the Company or SUMITOMO may, by action or inaction:

(i)

compromise, settle, extend the duration or the time for the payment of, or discharge the performance of, or may refuse to or otherwise not enforce any Guaranteed Obligations under the LLC Agreement;

(ii)

grant waivers and other indulgences to Subsidiary Member in respect of the LLC Agreement;

(iii)

amend or modify in any manner and at any time (or from time to time) the LLC Agreement pursuant to its terms;

(iv)

increase or decrease at any time (or from time to time) the amount of the Guaranteed Obligations and any amounts owing in connection therewith; or

(v)

release or substitute any other guarantor, if any, of the Guaranteed Obligations, or enforce, exchange, release or waive any security for the Guaranteed Obligations or any other guaranty of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any portion thereof.

(i)

Guarantor waives any defense to payment or performance hereunder based on the Company not being in privity with Subsidiary Member and waives any defense to payment or performance hereunder arising from the damages being suffered by the Company hereunder resulting from a breach of an obligation between the Company and Subsidiary Member.

Payments. All payments required to be made pursuant to this Agreement shall be made in full in United States Dollars and in immediately available funds, free and clear of any and all taxes, levies, imposts, assessments, deductions, withholdings or other similar charges imposed by any taxing authority in any jurisdiction.

EXHIBIT F

PREEMPTIVE AND CO-SALE RIGHTS

1.1

Preemptive Rights. If either SUMITOMO or STRATHMORE intends to Transfer all or any part of its Ownership Interest (the “Offered Interest”), such Member or Members (the “Transferring Member”) shall promptly notify the other (the “Non-Transferring Member”) of such intentions (the “Offer Notice”). The Offer Notice shall state the price and all other pertinent terms and conditions of the intended Transfer, and shall be accompanied by a copy of the contract for sale. If the consideration for the intended Transfer is, in whole or in part, other than monetary, the Offer Notice shall describe such consideration and its monetary equivalent (based upon the fair market value of the nonmonetary consideration and stated in terms of cash or currency). The Non-Transferring Member shall have 60 days (the “Option Period”) from the date the Offer Notice is delivered within which to notify the Transferring Member whether it elects to acquire (or have its designee acquire) the Offered Interest at the same price (or its monetary equivalent in cash or currency) and on the same terms and conditions as set forth in the Offer Notice. If the Non-Transferring Member does so elect, the acquisition by the Non-Transferring Member (or its designee) shall be consummated promptly after notice of such election is delivered.

(a)

If the Non-Transferring Member fails to so elect within the Option Period, subject to Paragraph 1.2, the Transferring Member shall have 90 days following the expiration of the Option Period within which to consummate the Transfer to a third party (the “Buyer”) at a price and on terms no less favorable to the Transferring Member than those offered by the Transferring Member to the Non-Transferring Member in the Offer Notice.

(b)

If the Transferring Member fails to consummate the Transfer to the Buyer within the period set forth above, the rights of the Non-Transferring Member under this Paragraph 1.1 in such Offered Interest shall be deemed to be revived. Any subsequent proposal to Transfer such Ownership Interest shall be conducted in accordance with all of the procedures set forth in this Paragraph 1.1 and Paragraph 1.2.

1.2

Co-Sale Option of Non-Transferring Member. If the Transferring Member provides an Offer Notice to sell the Offered Interest and the Non-Transferring Member does not elect to exercise the right to purchase the Offered Interest under Paragraph 1.1, the Transferring Member may Transfer the Offered Interest to the Buyer only pursuant to and in accordance with the following provisions of this Paragraph 1.2:

(a)

Co-Sale Notice. As soon as practicable following the expiration of the Option Period, and in no event later than five (5) days thereafter, the Transferring Member shall provide notice to the Non-Transferring Member (the “Co-Sale Notice”) of its right to participate (by selling its Ownership Interest to the Buyer) on a pro rata basis with the Transferring Member and on the same terms and conditions applicable to the Transferring Member as are set forth in the Offer Notice (the “Co-Sale Option”). Promptly after such transfer, the Transferring Member shall notify the Company and the Non-Transferring Member of the consummation thereof and shall furnish such evidence of the completion and date of completion of the transfer.

(b)

Non-Transferring Member Acceptance. The Non-Transferring Member shall have the right to exercise its Co-Sale Option by giving written notice of such intent to participate (the “Co-Sale Acceptance Notice”) to the Transferring Member within 15 days after receipt by such Non-Transferring Member of the Co-Sale Notice (the “Co-Sale Election Period”).

(c)

Co-Sale Closing. Within 10 calendar days after the end of the Co-Sale Election Period, the Transferring Member shall promptly notify the Non-Transferring Member of the date on which the transaction will be consummated, which shall be no later than the later of (i) 30 calendar days after the end of the Co-Sale Election Period and (ii) 5 days following the date on which all Governmental Approvals relating to the sale of any of the Ownership Interests are satisfied. The Non-Transferring Member may consummate the sale of is Ownership Interest by delivering to the Buyer, or to the Transferring Member for delivery to the Buyer, one or more instruments or certificates, properly endorsed for transfer, representing its Ownership Interest. At the time of consummation of the transaction offer, the Buyer shall remit directly to the Non-Transferring Member that portion of the sale proceeds to which the Non-Transferring Member is entitled by reason of its participation in the transaction offer. The Ownership Interest of the Transferring Member may not be purchased by the Buyer unless the Buyer simultaneously purchases the Ownership Interest of the Non-Transferring Member.

1.3

Exceptions to Preemptive and Co-Sale Rights. Paragraph 1.1 above shall not apply to the following:

(a)

transfer by any Member of all or any part of its Ownership Interest to an Affiliate; and

(b)

subject to Subsection 9.2(g) of the Agreement, the grant by any Member of a security interest in its Ownership Interest by Encumbrance.
