Consolidated Uranium Inc. (“CUR” or “Consolidated Uranium”) (TSXV: CUR) (OTCQB: CURUF) and Labrador Uranium Inc. (“LUR” or “Labrador Uranium”) are pleased to announce that the previously announced spin-out of Labrador Uranium through a plan of arrangement under the Business Corporations Act (Ontario) (the “Arrangement”) has been completed. The Arrangement was effective at 12:01 a.m. (Toronto time) on February 22, 2022 (the “Record Date”).

Pursuant to the Arrangement, CUR transferred ownership of the Moran Lake Project in Labrador (the “Moran Lake Project”) to LUR in exchange for 16,000,000 common shares of LUR (the “LUR Shares”) and LUR has assumed the obligations of CUR pursuant to: (i) the original option agreement for the Moran Lake Project, to make certain future payments to the vendor (the “Vendor”) contingent upon the attainment of certain milestones tied to the spot price of uranium and (ii) the royalty agreement between CUR and the Vendor, which provides the Vendor with a 1.5% net smelter returns royalty on the sale of the mineral products extracted or derived from the Moran Lake Project (the “Moran Lake Royalty”). CUR retained the right to purchase 0.5% of the Moran Lake Royalty for $500,000.

CUR will distribute 16,000,000 LUR Shares it received under the Arrangement to holders (the “CUR Shareholders”) of common shares of CUR (the “CUR Shares”) on a pro rata basis, such that CUR Shareholders as of 12:01 a.m. on the Record Date will receive 0.214778 of a LUR Share for each CUR Share held by such holder as at the Record Date. CUR Shareholders of record as of the Record Date are entitled to receive LUR Shares in respect of the CUR Shares they hold. No additional action is required by registered CUR Shareholders in order to receive LUR Shares, and they will retain any certificates or direct registration statements representing their CUR Shares. It is expected that DRS statements representing the LUR Shares to which the registered CUR Shareholders are entitled to under the Arrangement will be mailed out on February 25, 2022.

In addition, Labrador Uranium has completed the previously announced acquisition (the “Altius Transaction”) of a 100% interest in the Central Mineral Belt Uranium-Copper Project (the “CMB Project”) and the Notakwanon Project (the “Notakwanon Project” together, the “Altius Projects”) in Labrador, from Altius Resources Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Altius Minerals Corporation (TSX: ALS) (“Altius”). As consideration for the Altius Projects, Labrador Uranium has issued 8,000,000 LUR Shares to Altius and granted Altius a 2% gross overriding royalty on the Altius Projects.

In connection with the Arrangement, the previously announced subscription receipt financing (the “Offering”) conducted by Labrador Uranium has been completed. Accordingly, 11,428,571 subscription receipts of LUR (each, a “Subscription Receipt”) were converted into 11,428,571 LUR Shares and 5,714,285 common share purchase warrants of LUR (each, a “Warrant”). Each Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one LUR Share at a price of $1.05 until February 22, 2024. As a result of the conversion of the Subscription Receipts, $7,365,745.64 that was previously held in escrow has been released to Labrador Uranium. Red Cloud Securities Inc. acted as lead agent and sole bookrunner on behalf of a syndicate of agents including Haywood Securities Inc. and PI Financial Corp. in connection with the Offering.

LUR has received the conditional approval of the Canadian Securities Exchange (the “CSE”) for listing of the LUR Shares (the “Listing”). Listing is subject to the final approval of the CSE in accordance with its original listing requirements. Listing is expected to be completed the week of February 28, 2022.

About Labrador Uranium Inc.
