U 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 the Phase 2 period of performance that was extended beyond November 30, 2024 was not definitized and is subject to negotiation.

On June 17, 2025, the DOE issued an amendment to the HALEU Operation Contract that split the first three-year option period into a first option period of one year (“Option 1a”) and a second option period of two years (“Option 1b”). The amendment established a target cost and fee for Option 1a of approximately $99.3 million and $8.7 million, respectively, and a target cost and fee for Option 1b of $163.5 million and $15.2 million, respectively. Additionally, the Amendment acknowledges
