(i)         no such assignment, sale, conveyance, transfer or disposal (other than an assignment, sale, conveyance, transfer or disposal pursuant to the provisions of Section 7.05 hereof) shall relieve the Borrower from primary liability for any of Borrower’s Obligations hereunder, and

(ii)        in the case of an assignment, the assignee shall assume the Borrower’s Obligations hereunder to the extent of the interest assigned by an instrument satisfactory in form and substance to the Purchaser.

ARTICLE 9
DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES

            Section 9.01.        Event of Default Defined. Any of t he fol l o wi ng event s i s hereby defined as and declared to be and to constitute an Event of Default (whatever the reason for such an Event of Default and whether it shall be voluntary or involuntary or be effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body):

            (1)        If default shall be made in the due and punctual payment of any installment of interest on the Note when it becomes due and payable; or

            (2)        If default shall be made in the due and punctual payment of any installment of principal on the Note when it becomes due and payable; or

            (3)        If default shall be made in the due and punctual payment of any other money required to be paid to the Issuer under the provisions hereof and such default shall have continued for a period of ten (10) days after written notice thereof, specifying such default, shall have been given by the Issuer or the Trustee to the Borrower; or

            (4)        If default shall be made in the performance or observance of any other of the covenants, agreements or conditions on the part of the Borrower contained in this Financing Agreement or the Note, and such default shall have continued for a period of thirty (30) days after written notice thereof given in the manner provided in clause (3) above, without Borrower’s commencing to cure the default where permitted; or

            (5)        If any representation or warranty by the Borrower is found, by the Issuer, the Trustee or the Purchaser, to be false or misleading; or

            (6)        If Borrower makes a contract or arrangement of any kind, the performance of which contract or arrangement by another party does or could give rise to a lien on the Project, without first obtaining the written authorization of the Purchaser; or

            (7)        If an Event of Default as defined in the Indenture, or any breach of any provision of the Mortgage has occurred and is continuing, taking into account any applicable cure or grace period as may be provided in the Indenture or the Mortgage; or

            (8)        If the Borrower shall file a petition in bankruptcy or is adjudicated as bankrupt or insolvent, or makes an assignment for the benefit of its creditors or consents to the appointment of a receiver of itself or of its property, or institutes proceedings for its reorganization, or proceedings instituted by others for its reorganization are not dismissed within thirty (30) days after the institution thereof, or a receiver or liquidator of the Borrower of any substantial portion of its property is appointed and the order appointing such receiver or liquidator shall not be vacated within thirty (30) days after the entry thereof.

            Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as an event of Force Majeure is occurring and the Borrower is unable to perform or observe any agreement, term or condition hereof which would give rise to an Event of Default under subsection (4) above, the Borrower shall not be deemed in default during the continuance of such inability. However, the Borrower shall immediately notify the Trustee and the Issuer of the extent and nature of any problem created by an event of Force Majeure and limit delays in performance to that required by the event and take all reasonable steps to minimize delays. This provision is not effective, however, unless the failure to perform is beyond the control and without the fault or negligence of the Borrower.

#2 - Financing Agreement - 27 -  


            Once the event of Force Majeure is over, the Borrower must make all reasonable efforts to become in compliance as soon as possible. If the Borrower does not proceed diligently and come into compliance within 30 days after the event is over, it is then in default.

            Section 9.02.        Remedies. Whenever an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Issuer, the Trustee, or the Purchaser as provided in Section 8.08 of the Indenture, may take one or any combination of the following remedial steps:

            (a)        if and only if the Trustee has declared the Principal Balance of the Bond immediately due and payable by written notice to the Borrower, declare an amount equal to all amounts then due and payable on the Note, whether by acceleration of maturity (as provided in the Security Documents) or otherwise, to be immediately due and payable under this Financing Agreement, whereupon the same shall become immediately due and payable; or

            (b)        take whatever action at law or in equity may appear necessary or desirable to collect the amounts then due and thereafter to become due, or to enforce performance and observance of any obligation, agreement or covenant of the Borrower under this Financing Agreement.

            Any amounts collected pursuant to action taken under this Section shall, subject to Sections 8.06 and 9.02 of the Indenture, first be applied, on a parity basis, to pay costs incurred by the Issuer, the Trustee and the Purchaser in connection therewith and the remainder shall be applied to the interest or the Principal Balance due and payable under the Bond, as determined by the Purchaser.

            The Borrower and the Issuer agree that monetary damages may not be an adequate remedy for default in compliance with non-monetary covenants in this Financing Agreement and, therefore, the Issuer or Trustee, with the written approval of the Purchaser, may seek the remedy of specific enforcement.

            Section 9.03.        No Remedy Exclusive. No remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Issuer, the Trustee or the Purchaser is intended to be exclusive of any other available remedy or remedies, but each and every such remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given under this Financing Agreement or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity. No delay or omission to exercise any right or power accruing upon an Event of Default shall impair any such right or power or shall be construed to be a waiver thereof, but any such right or power may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient. In order to entitle the Issuer, the Trustee or the Purchaser to exercise any remedy reserved to it in this ARTICLE, it shall not be necessary to give any notice, other than such notice as may be required in this ARTICLE; provided that the failure to provide any such notice shall not result in a waiver of any such Event of Default or a loss of any such remedy. Such rights and remedies as are given the Issuer hereunder shall also extend to the Trustee and the Purchaser, subject to the provisions of the Security Documents, who shall be entitled to the benefit of all covenants and agreements herein contained.

            Section 9.04.        Agreement to Pay Attorneys’ Fees and Expenses. In the event the Borrower should default under any of the provisions of this Financing Agreement and the Issuer, the Trustee or the Purchaser should employ attorneys or incur other expenses for the collection of payments required hereunder or the enforcement of performance or observance of any Borrower’s Obligation or agreement on the part of the Borrower herein contained, the Borrower agrees that it will on demand therefor pay to the Issuer, the Trustee or the Purchaser the reasonable fees and expenses of such attorneys and, such other reasonable out-of-pocket expenses so incurred by the Issuer, the Trustee or the Purchaser.

#2 - Financing Agreement - 28 -  


            Section 9.05.        No Additional Waiver Implied by One Waiver. In the event any agreement contained in this Financing Agreement should be breached by either party and thereafter waived by the other party, such waiver shall be limited to the particular breach so waived and shall not be deemed to waive any other breach hereunder.

            Section 9.06.        Trustee May File Proof of Claim. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing under Section 9.01(7) hereof, the Trustee and the Purchaser shall be entitled and empowered by intervention in such proceedings or otherwise, to file and prove a claim or claims for the whole amount owing and unpaid pursuant to this Financing Agreement, irrespective of whether the Principal Balance of the Note or any amount hereunder shall then be due and payable as therein or herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise, and irrespective of whether the Trustee shall have made any demand pursuant to the provisions of the Security Documents, and, in case of any judicial proceedings, to file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee and the Purchaser allowed in such judicial proceedings relative to the Borrower, its creditors, or its property, and to collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims, and to distribute the same after the deduction, on a parity, of the charges and expenses of the Trustee and the Purchaser, and any receiver, assignee or trustee in bankruptcy or reorganization is hereby authorized to make such payments to the Trustee and the Purchaser, and to pay to the Trustee and the Purchaser, any amount due for compensation and expenses, including reasonable counsel fees and expenses incurred by them up to the date of such distribution.

            Section 10.02.        Mandatory Prepayment of the Loan. Borrower shall prepay the Loan in full prior to the expiration of this Financing Agreement if (i) as a result of any changes in the constitution of the State of Wyoming or the Constitution of the United States of America or of legislative or administrative action (whether state or federal) or in the event of the repeal or material modification of the current General Mining Law of 1872 during the Term of the Financing Agreement or of final decree, judgment or order of any court or administrative body (whether state or federal), this Financing Agreement becomes void or unenforceable or impossible to perform in accordance with the intent and purpose of the parties as expressed in this Financing Agreement, or (ii) all or substantially all of the Collateral shall have been damaged or destroyed or there occurs condemnation of all or substantially all of the Mortgaged Property or the taking by eminent domain of such use or control of the Mortgaged Property as in each case renders the Collateral and the Mortgaged Property unsatisfactory to the Purchaser as security on the Bond and Borrower has not elected, as expressed in a certificate delivered to the Trustee within thirty (30) days after the occurrence of such event, to restore or replace the Collateral and the Mortgaged Property with other property of similar value that is acceptable to the Purchaser.

            Section 10.03.        Prepayment Price.

            (a)        In the case of a partial prepayment pursuant to Section 10.01 hereof, the prepayment price shall equal the principal amount so redeemed plus accrued interest thereon to the date of redemption, without penalty or premium. The principal so redeemed shall be applied so as to reduce the Principal Balance of the Note but there shall be no reduction in the quarterly payments of principal and interest that are due thereon.

            (b)        In the case of prepayment of the entire Loan pursuant to Sections 10.01 or 10.02 hereof, the prepayment price shall be a sum sufficient, together with any other funds available for that purpose, to pay, or redeem and pay the Principal Balance of the Bond then Outstanding at the applicable payment price, as to principal and interest to said payment date all as set forth in the Bond, and to pay all Additional Charges and Administration Expenses accrued and to accrue through final payment of the Bond and all other liabilities of Borrower accrued and to accrue hereunder through final payment of the Bond.

            Section. 10.04.        Notice of Prepayment. In order to exercise a prepayment option granted in, or to consummate a mandatory prepayment required by, this Article, Borrower shall give notice to the Trustee which shall specify therein the date of closing of the prepayment which date shall be not less than thirty (30) days nor more than sixty (60) days from the date the notice is mailed. The failure to give notice of a mandatory prepayment required by Section 10.02 hereof shall not relieve Borrower of its obligation to make such a prepayment and the date of closing of such prepayment shall be not less than ten (10) days nor more than thirty (30) days after the event giving rise to such prepayment, as determined by the Borrower or, if the Borrower shall fail or refuse to make such a determination, by the Trustee after consultation with the Purchaser.

#2 - Financing Agreement - 30 -  


            Section 10.05.        Effect of Events of Default on Optional Prepayment.

Further, any and all costs and expenses incurred by the Issuer, the Trustee or the Purchaser relating to or as a result of such default, including attorney fees, shall be reimbursed to the Issuer, the Trustee or the Purchaser by the Borrower on or before the date of closing of such prepayment.

DESCRIPTION OF THE NICHOLS RANCH PROJECT

            Uranerz Energy Corporation (“Uranerz” or the “Corporation”) is a corporation domiciled in the State of Nevada and registered to do business in the State of Wyoming. The Corporation is a publically traded enterprise with primary listing on the NYSE MKT stock exchange and is also listed on the Toronto stock exchange, both under the symbol “URZ.” The Corporation’s corporate and operational office is located in Casper, Wyoming.

            Uranerz is currently developing a uranium mine in the central Powder River Basin of Wyoming in what is sometimes referred to as the historic Pumpkin Buttes uranium mining district. Currently the Corporation is in the last stage of constructing its Nichols Ranch Project, which consists of a central processing facility at the Nichols Ranch property and a satellite facility at the Hank property. The central processing facility is being licensed for a capacity of 2 million pounds per year of uranium (as U3O8). It is planned that this facility will process uranium-bearing well field solutions from Nichols Ranch, as well as uranium-loaded resin transported from the Hank satellite facility, plus uranium-loaded resin from any additional satellite deposits that may be developed on the Corporation's other Powder River Basin properties. The earth work is complete, the buildings are up, the processing equipment has been installed inside the main building and the well field is nearly complete. The Corporation has all the state and federal permits needed to build and operate an ISR uranium mine in Wyoming. Construction is scheduled to be completed in 2013. The Corporation estimates the life of the mine to be between 10 and 20 years.

            Funding for all Corporation operations and mine construction from start-up in 2005 to May 2013 has been raised though equity financing. Proceeds of the $20 million Series 2013 Bond will be used to pay the Corporation’s outstanding construction loan and costs of completion of the construction.

            The Corporation has contracts in-place to sell about half of its planned production to two of the largest U.S. nuclear utilities and is focusing its sales efforts on getting more contracts with U.S. nuclear utilities as the U.S. has 104 nuclear reactors; the largest nuclear fleet in the world.

            Part of the Uranerz mission is to provide quality and rewarding employment in a workplace that is safe and healthy, and, through training and leadership, establish and maintain a highly productive, motivated and ethical workforce with worker and public safety, and protection of the environment paramount. Currently the Corporation has 38 Wyoming employees with 10 working in the Casper office and 28 working at the mine site. The Corporation also routinely has 15 to 25 contractors working at the mine on any given day. Once in production these numbers will in increase by about 50%. The Corporation’s management team has extensive experience in ISR uranium mining (125 man-years), mostly in Wyoming.
