 complete construction of the cascade, begin operations and produce the initial 20 kilograms of HALEU UF6. On November 7, 2023, the Company announced that it made its first contractual delivery of HALEU to the DOE, completing Phase 1. During November 2023, the Company transitioned to Phase 2 of the HALEU Operation Contract, which included production of 900 kilograms of HALEU UF6 for one production year, as well as continued operations and maintenance of the cascade. Phase 2 included an initial contract value of approximately $90.0 million and compensation on a cost-plus-incentive-fee-basis. The DOE owns any HALEU produced from the demonstration cascade. The HALEU Operation Contract also gives DOE the ability to exercise three optional periods to contract for up to nine additional years of production from the cascade beyond the base contract; those options are at the DOE’s sole discretion and subject to the availability of Congressional appropriations. Pursuant to an amendment to the Company’s lease for the Piketon facility, the DOE assumed all D&D liabilities arising out of the HALEU Operation Contract.Under the HALEU Operation Contract, DOE is contractually obligated to provide the 5B Cylinders necessary to collect the output of the cascade, but supply chain challenges created difficulties for DOE in securing enough 5B Cylinders for the entire Phase 2 production year. During time periods when 5B Cylinders were insufficient, the Company was not able to produce HALEU as it did not have 5B Cylinders to store the enriched uranium. Due to these delays, Centrus was unable to achieve contractual delivery of the 900 kilograms of HALEU UF6 by November 2024, which was the date set for the end of Phase 2 performance. On November 5, 2024, the HALEU Operation Contract was modified to extend the Phase 2 period of performance to June 30, 2025, which allowed the Company to produce and contractually deliver the Phase 2 production target of 900 kilograms of HALEU to DOE. On August 20, 2025, the DOE modified the HALEU Operation contract to further extend the Phase 2 period of performance through October 31, 2025 to allow the Company to complete outstanding change orders. As of September 30, 2025, the total Phase 2 contract value and funded value is $170.1 million. The fee for
