SECTION 1 - REGISTRANT'S BUSINESS AND OPERATIONS
Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On July 7, 2011, the Board of Directors of Uranium Energy Corp. (the "Company" or "UEC") ratified the entry into amendments to (i) the Company's definitive Merger Agreement & Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement") with Concentric Energy Corp. ("Concentric") and (ii) the Company's Acquisition Agreement (the "Acquisition Agreement") with Global Uranium Corp. ("Global"), which agreements were previously disclosed by the Company in its Current Report on Form 8-K as filed with the SEC on May 11, 2011.
As previously disclosed, the Merger Agreement contemplates a stock-for-stock merger (the "Merger") to be effected under the laws of Nevada. Upon completion of the Merger, it is anticipated that approximately 1,253,440 shares of UEC common stock will be issued to the former Concentric stockholders to acquire Concentric and its undivided 100% interest in the Anderson Property, located in Yavapai County, Arizona. On July 7, 2011, the Company's Board of Directors ratified and approved an amendment to the Merger Agreement to extend the closing date of the Merger from no later than August 31, 2011 to no later than October 31, 2011 (unless otherwise agreed to by the parties), and to clarify that Concentric's interest in the Anderson Property consists of a 7,581-acre mineral claim block.
As previously disclosed, it is a condition precedent to the completion of the Merger that the Company is able to achieve a contemporaneous closing of the full assignment to UEC of Global's rights (the "Rights") under the terms and conditions of an underlying Option and Joint Venture Agreement dated April 13, 2010 between Global and Concentric, with respect to the Anderson Property. As a consequence, the Company had previously entered into the Acquisition Agreement to acquire such Rights in consideration of UEC's delivery to Global of (i) an initial payment of $150,000, (ii) a further $200,000 payment, thereby releasing and assigning to the Company any security previously granted by Concentric to Global, and (iii) 350,000 restricted shares of the Company's common stock and a final payment of $150,000 at the closing of the Merger. On July 7, 2011, the Company's Board of Directors ratified and approved an amendment to the Acquisition Agreement to extend the latest closing date thereunder from July 31, 2011 to October 31, 2011.
