SECTION 1 – REGISTRANT’S BUSINESS AND OPERATIONS

Item 1.01         Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On November 7, 2011, Uranium Energy Corp. (the “Company”) and Cooper Minerals, Inc. (“Cooper”) entered into a Property Acquisition Agreement (the “Agreement”), dated effective as of November 7, 2011 and fully executed on the same date, pursuant to which the Company proposes to acquire a 100% legal and beneficial interest in and to a total of 176 unpatented lode mining claims covering 3,250 acres and constituting the Workman Creek uranium deposit located in Gila County, Arizona, subject to advance royalty payments, the reservation of a three percent (3.0%) net smelter revenue royalty and an option to acquire a one-half percent (0.5%) net smelter revenue royalty as more fully described below (collectively, the “Property”; and in the aggregate, the “Acquisition”). The Agreement provides that, unless otherwise agreed by the Company and Cooper, the Acquisition shall close on or before November 30, 2011 (the “Closing Date”).

Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, the consideration to be paid by the Company to Cooper for the Property shall consist of:

In addition to the consideration described above, the closing of the Acquisition is subject to standard conditions precedent, which include, without limitation, prior satisfactory due diligence and NYSE Amex approval of the issuance of the Acquisition Shares.

Pursuant to the terms and conditions of certain underlying property agreements previously entered into by Cooper, the Company has agreed to provide each of two individuals (collectively, the “Underlying Vendors”) with a royalty interest in the amount of three percent (3.0%) of the net smelter revenue received by the Company in connection with any uranium which is produced and sold from any of the mineral interests in the Property (the “Royalty”). The Royalty is subject to annual advance royalty payments of $100,000 (the “Advance Royalty Payments”), which Advance Royalty Payments are to be deducted from the payment of the Royalty. The Company has the right, exercisable at any time until January 21, 2024, to reduce the Royalty from three percent (3.0%) to one-and-a-half percent (1.5%) by paying the Underlying Vendors the aggregate sum of U.S. $1,000,000.00.
