Red Cloud Securities Inc. to act as lead agent and sole bookrunner
on behalf of a syndicate of investment dealers (collectively, the

PUR
Offering”) of a minimum of 5,750,000 subscription
receipts of PUR (each, a “
Subscription Receipt”)
at a price of C$1.80 per Subscription Receipt (the
“
Offering Price”) for minimum gross proceeds of
C$10,350,000. The Agents will have an option, exercisable in full
or in part up to 48 hours prior to the closing of the PUR Offering,
to sell up to an additional 833,334 Subscription Receipts at the

The PUR Offering is expected to include lead orders of at least
C$2.0 million from each of Mega Uranium Ltd. and funds for
which Sachem Cove Partners is the general partner.
Philip Williams, Chairman and CEO of
Consolidated Uranium commented, “We are thrilled to announce this
financing for PUR corner stoned by Sachem Cove and Mega Uranium,
two of the most knowledgeable and credible investors in the uranium
space today. They clearly see the potential in PUR that we see; an
exciting portfolio of exploration and development projects in two
key U.S. uranium mining jurisdictions, being the Great Divide Basin
of Wyoming and the Uravan Mineral Belt of Colorado and a well-timed
opportunity to participate in the resurgence of the U.S. nuclear
fuel cycle. The funds raised are expected to be used to advance the
current portfolio including plans for a drill program at the
Cyclone Project and potential project acquisitions as PUR looks to
expands its existing footprint and leverage its experienced
technical team.”
Each Subscription Receipt will entitle the
holder thereof to automatically receive, upon satisfaction or
waiver, as applicable, of certain escrow release conditions (the
“Escrow Release Conditions”), one unit of PUR.
Each Unit shall be comprised of one common share of PUR (each, a
“Unit Share”) and one-half of one common share
purchase warrant of PUR (each whole warrant, a
“Warrant”). Each whole Warrant will entitle the
holder to purchase one common share of PUR (each, a
“Warrant Share”) at a price of C$2.50 for a period
of 36 months following the date of issuance of the Warrants. The
Escrow Release Conditions includes the satisfaction of all
conditions precedent to the completion of the Spin-Out as well as
receipt of conditional approval for the listing of PUR’s common
shares (the “Listing”) on the TSX Venture Exchange
(the “TSXV”).
The proceeds of the PUR Offering, net of the
reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of the Agents, will be held in
escrow and not released to PUR unless the Escrow Release Conditions
are satisfied by the deadline provided in the terms of the
subscription receipt agreement that will govern the Subscription
Receipts (the “Escrow Release Deadline”). If the
Escrow Release Conditions have not been satisfied on or prior to
the Escrow Release Deadline, the aggregate issue price of the
Subscription Receipts (plus any interest earned thereon) will be
returned to the holders (net of any applicable withholding taxes),
and such Subscription Receipts will be automatically cancelled and
be of no further force and effect.
Following the satisfaction or waiver, as
applicable, of the Escrow Release Conditions, the net proceeds of
the PUR Offering are expected to be used to fund the proposed
exploration programs for PUR’s projects located in the Great Divide
Basin of Wyoming and the Uravan Mineral Belt of Colorado as well as
for working capital and general corporate purposes.
