Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
On December 22, 2015, Centrus Energy Corp. (the “Company”), through its subsidiary United States Enrichment Corporation (“Enrichment Corp.”), and Joint Stock Company “TENEX” (“TENEX”) entered into Amendment No. 8 (the “Amendment”) to the Enriched Product Transitional Supply Contract, dated March 23, 2011, as amended, between Enrichment Corp. and TENEX (the “Supply Contract”). The Amendment, which is subject to approval of the Russian State Atomic Energy Corporation “Rosatom”, extends the Supply Contract beyond 2022 and gives Enrichment Corp. the right to reschedule quantities of separative work units (“SWU”) into the period 2023-2026, in return for the purchase of additional SWU in those years.
Under the terms of the amended Supply Contract, Enrichment Corp. will now have the option to reschedule to 2023-26 up to approximately 7.7 million SWU of the approximately 16.6 million SWU remaining in its commitment under the Supply Contract, subject to an increase in Enrichment Corp.’s purchase obligation as compensation for Enrichment Corp.’s deferring the purchase to those years and a change in the terms for ordering enriched uranium included in the Amendment. These compensatory SWU, which could increase Enrichment Corp.’s purchase obligation after 2022, to approximately 10 million SWU, will be calculated on a yearly basis beginning at the end of 2022. Enrichment Corp. will take these SWU in 2023-26, but will have the right to move purchases in excess of 2.25 million SWU per year to the first year after 2026 in which such excess can be purchased without exceeding the 2.25 million limit.
The Amendment also provides that Enrichment Corp. must pay for all SWU in its minimum purchase obligation each year, even if it fails to submit orders for such SWU. Enrichment Corp. would then have the right to take the unordered SWU in the following year.
Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.
On December 22, 2015, Centrus Energy Corp. issued a press release announcing the Amendment described in Item 1.01 of this report. A copy of this press release is included as Exhibit 99.1 to this report.
