Canafax as Chief Legal Officer and Corporate Secretary, effective October 20, 2025. Canafax brings to NuScale decades of legal experience, including within the nuclear industry as well as the broader energy and manufacturing sectors. He most recently served as General Counsel and Chief Compliance Officer at Maritime Partners, LLC, where he established the company's legal department and supported strategic growth, regulatory compliance, and financing initiatives. Before joining Maritime Partners, Canafax served as Senior Vice President, General Counsel, Chief Compliance Officer, and Corporate Secretary at BWX Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: BWXT), a leading supplier of nuclear components and services to the U.S. government and the commercial nuclear industry. In that role, he oversaw critical legal, compliance and corporate governance matters, managed complex mergers and acquisitions, high-profile litigation and regulatory interactions, and advised the Board and senior executives on corporate strategy. His tenure included extensive engagement with the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC), U.S. Department of Energy, and U.S. Department of Defense, among other routine interactions with key regulatory bodies. "James is an outstanding addition to the NuScale leadership team," said John Hopkins, NuScale President and Chief Executive Officer. "His extensive experience in the nuclear industry, deep familiarity with the regulatory environment and track record of guiding organizations through key growth periods make him uniquely suited to support NuScale at this important moment for our company. We look forward to his counsel as we continue leading our industry and driving toward the commercialization of our SMR technology." Canafax said: "NuScale Power has established itself as a global leader in advancing safe, clean and reliable small modular reactor technology. It is the clear frontrunner in the SMR space as the only technology with design approval from the NRC, an important and impressive distinction. I am looking forward to assisting NuScale in its legal, compliance, governance, and business development efforts as it leads the way in deploying its SMR technology. It is a privilege to join the team, support its important mission and help power the future." Canafax holds a Juris Doctor from Harvard Law School and a Bachelor of Science in International Trade and Finance from Louisiana State University. He has also completed the Massachusetts Institute of Technology's Nuclear Reactor Technology Course for Executives.
