**About This Prospectus Supplement**

On June 13, 2024, we filed with the SEC a registration statement on Form S-3. The registration statement was declared effective on June 27, 2024.

This prospectus supplement describes the specific terms of the securities we are offering and adds to, and updates, information in the accompanying prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference herein and therein. If there is a conflict between the information contained in this prospectus supplement and the information contained in the accompanying prospectus or any document incorporated by reference into it or into this prospectus supplement that was filed with the SEC before the date of this prospectus supplement, you should rely on the information in this prospectus supplement. If any statement in one of these documents is inconsistent with a statement in another document having a later date—for example, a document incorporated by reference into this prospectus supplement—the statement in the document having the later date modifies or supersedes the earlier statement.

Documents incorporated by reference herein include industry and market data and other information that we have obtained from, or which is based upon, market research, independent industry publications or other publicly available information. Any such data and other information is subject to change based on various factors, including those described in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus under the heading "*Risk Factors*" and under Item 1A. "Risk Factors" in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC, which is incorporated herein by reference.

We have not authorized anyone to provide you with different information from the information contained or incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus or in any free writing prospectus that we may provide you. You should not assume that the information contained in this prospectus supplement, the accompanying prospectus, any document incorporated by reference, or any free writing prospectus is accurate as of any date, other than the date mentioned on the cover page of these documents. We are not making offers to sell the securities in any jurisdiction in which an offer or solicitation is not authorized or in which the person making such offer or solicitation is not qualified to do so or to anyone to whom it is unlawful to make an offer or solicitation.

*Unless we state otherwise or the context otherwise requires, the terms "we," "us," "our," "our business," "NioCorp," "the Company" and similar references refer to NioCorp Developments Ltd. and its consolidated subsidiaries.*

This prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus contain our registered and unregistered trademarks and service marks, as well as trademarks and service marks of third parties. Solely for convenience, these trademarks and service marks are referenced without the®,™ or similar symbols, but such references are not intended to indicate, in anyway, that we will not assert, to the fullest extent under applicable law, our rights to these trademarks and service marks. All brand names, trademarks and service marks appearing in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus are the property of their respective holders.

**About the Company**

**NioCorp Developments Ltd.**

NioCorp is developing the Elk Creek Project (as defined below) located in southeast Nebraska. The "Elk Creek Project" is a development-stage property that has disclosed niobium, scandium, and titanium reserves and resources and disclosed rare earth mineral resources. The Company is continuing technical and economic studies around the rare earths contained in the Elk Creek Project's mineral resource in order to determine whether extraction of rare earth elements can be reasonably justified and economically viable after taking into account all relevant factors. Niobium has developing applications in the formulation of solid-state lithium-ion batteries, which may reduce charging times and increase battery safety. Niobium is used to produce various superalloys that are extensively used in high performance aircraft and jet turbines. It also is used in high-strength, low-alloy steel, a stronger steel used in automobiles, bridges, structural systems, buildings, pipelines, and other applications that generally increases strength and/or reduces weight, which can result in environmental benefits, including reduced fuel consumption and material usage and fewer air emissions. Scandium can be combined with aluminum to make high-performance alloys with increased strength and improved corrosion resistance. Scandium also is a critical component of advanced solid oxide fuel cells, an environmentally preferred technology for high-reliability, distributed electricity generation. Titanium is a component of various superalloys and other applications that are used for aerospace applications, weapons systems, protective armor, medical implants, and many others. It also is used in pigments for paper, paint, and plastics. Rare earths are critical to electrification and decarbonization initiatives and can be used to manufacture the strongest permanent magnets commercially available.

Our primary business strategy is to advance our Elk Creek Project to commercial production. We are focused on obtaining additional funds to carry out our near-term planned work programs associated with securing the project financing necessary to complete mine development and construction of the Elk Creek Project.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

(1) Does not include:

● Common Shares issuable upon exercise of outstanding stock options under the NioCorp Developments Ltd. Long-Term Incentive Plan, as amended (the "LTIP");

● Common Shares reserved for future issuance under the LTIP;

● Common Shares issuable in respect of the commitment amount under the Standby Equity Purchase Agreement, dated January 26, 2023 (the "Yorkville Equity Facility Financing Agreement"), between the Company and YA II PN, Ltd. ("Yorkville"), a fund managed by Yorkville Advisors Global, LP;

● an aggregate of 7,325,627 Common Shares issuable under certain conditions upon exchange of shares of Class B common stock of the Company's subsidiary, Elk Creek Resources Corp. ("ECRC");

**Risk Factors**

*Investing in our Common Shares involves a high degree of risk. Before making a decision to invest in our Common Shares, you should carefully consider the risks described below and under the heading "Risk Factors" in the accompanying prospectus, and discussed under Part I, Item 1A. "Risk Factors" contained in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, which is incorporated by reference into this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus in their entirety, together with other information in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference herein and therein. See the sections of this prospectus supplement entitled "Where You Can Find More Information" and "Incorporation of Documents by Reference." Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also affect our business, financial condition or results of operations. The occurrence of any of these known or unknown risks might cause you to lose all or part of your investment in our Common Shares.*

**Risks Related to this Offering**

**Our Common Share price may be volatile and as a result you could lose all or part of your investment.**

In addition to volatility associated with equity securities in general, the value of your investment could decline due to the impact of any of the following factors upon the market price of the Common Shares:

● disappointing results from our exploration and/or, if warranted, project development efforts;

● decline in demand for Common Shares;

● downward revisions in securities analysts' estimates or changes in general market conditions;

● technological innovations by competitors or in competing technologies;

● investor perception of our industry or our prospects; and

● general economic trends.

In the last twelve months, the trading price of our stock on the Nasdaq Global Market has ranged from a low of $1.27 to a high of $4.33.

In addition, stock markets in general have experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations, and the market prices of securities have been highly volatile. These fluctuations are often unrelated to operating performance and may adversely affect the market price of the Common Shares. As a result, you may be unable to sell any Common Shares you acquire at a desired price.

**Sales of Common Shares in this offering could adversely affect prevailing market prices for the Common Shares, and you may experience immediate and substantial dilution.**

If all of the Common Shares offered by this prospectus supplement were issued and outstanding, they would represent a substantial percentage of our public float and of our outstanding Common Shares. As of July 15, 2025, and after giving effect to this offering, the Common Shares offered by this prospectus supplement would represent approximately 19.1% of the total number of outstanding Common Shares (not including: Common Shares issuable upon exercise of outstanding stock options, or reserved for future issuance, under the LTIP; Common Shares issuable in respect of the commitment amount pursuant to the Yorkville Equity Facility Financing Agreement; and Common Shares issuable upon conversion, exercise or exchange of other outstanding securities, as described herein). Accordingly, the sale of the Common Shares offered by this prospectus supplement, or the perception that such sales may occur, could result in a significant decline in the public trading price of our Common Shares.

In addition, because the price per share of our Common Shares being offered by this prospectus supplement may be higher than the book value per share of our Common Shares, investors in this offering may suffer immediate and substantial dilution in the net tangible book value of the Common Shares purchased in this offering.

See the section entitled "*Dilution*" below for a more detailed discussion of the dilution investors may incur in this offering.

**Future sales, or the perception of future sales, of Common Shares by existing shareholders or by us, or future dilutive issuances of Common Shares by us, or future exercises or exchanges of outstanding warrants to purchase Common Shares or securities exchangeable for Common Shares, could adversely affect prevailing market prices for the Common Shares and cause investors to suffer dilution in their net book value per Common Share.**

Sales of a substantial number of Common Shares in the public market could occur at any time, including issuances and sales of additional Common Shares by us and sales by other security holders. These sales, or the market perception that the holders of a large number of Common Shares or securities convertible, exercisable, or exchangeable into Common Shares intend to sell Common Shares, could reduce the prevailing market price of the Common Shares. The effect, if any, that future public sales of these securities or the availability of these securities for sale will have on the market price of the Common Shares is uncertain. If the market price of the Common Shares were to drop as a result, this might impede our ability to raise additional capital and might cause remaining shareholders to lose all or part of their investment.

The Articles of NioCorp, as amended in connection with the 2023 Transactions (as defined below), permit us to issue an unlimited number of Common Shares. Subject to the requirements of the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) and The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC ("Nasdaq"), we will not be required to obtain the approval of the NioCorp shareholders for the issuance of additional Common Shares. We have issued Common Shares in the past and will continue to issue Common Shares to finance our activities in the future. In addition, outstanding warrants to purchase Common Shares or securities exchangeable for Common Shares may be exercised or exchanged, resulting in the issuance of additional Common Shares, including, without limitation, an aggregate of 17,519,864 Common Shares issuable upon exercise of NioCorp Assumed Warrants, an aggregate of 1,063,462 Common Shares issuable upon exercise of the April Pre-Funded Warrants, an aggregate of 12,947,757 Common Shares issuable upon exercise of other outstanding warrants and an aggregate of 7,325,627 Common Shares issuable under certain conditions upon exchange of shares of Class B common stock of ECRC. If the prevailing price of our Common Shares exceeds the exercise prices of our outstanding warrants to purchase Common Shares, holders of such warrants may exercise those warrants for Common Shares, which could cause investors to suffer dilution in their net book value per Common Share.

If we issue additional Common Shares or decide to enter into joint ventures with other parties in order to raise financing through the sale of equity securities, investors' interests in the Company will be diluted and investors may suffer dilution in their net book value per Common Share depending on the price at which such securities are sold.

Additionally, pursuant to the Yorkville Equity Facility Financing Agreement, Yorkville has committed to purchase up to an additional $46.9 million of our Common Shares, at our direction from time to time during the remainder of the commitment period, subject to certain limitations and the satisfaction of the conditions in the Yorkville Equity Facility Financing Agreement. We have filed a registration statement under the Securities Act covering resales by Yorkville of the Common Shares issuable pursuant to the Yorkville Equity Facility Financing Agreement. Accordingly, any Common Shares that we issue pursuant to the Yorkville Equity Facility Financing Agreement will be available for sale into the public market, subject to applicable securities laws, which could reduce the prevailing market price for the Common Shares.

**Our management will have broad discretion over the use of the proceeds we receive in this offering and might not apply the proceeds in ways that increase the value of your investment.**

Our management will have broad discretion to use the net proceeds from this offering, and we may not apply the net proceeds of this offering in ways that increase the value of your investment. Pending their use, we intend to invest the net proceeds from this offering in marketable securities that may include investment-grade interest-bearing securities, money market accounts, certificates of deposit, commercial paper and guaranteed obligations of the U.S. government. These investments may not yield a favorable return to our shareholders. If we do not invest or apply the net proceeds from this offering in ways that enhance shareholder value, we may fail to achieve expected financial results, which could cause our share price to decline.

**We are subject to the continued listing criteria of the Nasdaq and our failure to satisfy these criteria may result in delisting of the Common Shares.**

Our Common Shares are currently listed on the Nasdaq Global Market under the symbol "NB". The public NioCorp Assumed Warrants are currently listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol "NIOBW." Nasdaq has rules for continued listing. In

order to maintain the listings, we must maintain certain financial and share distribution targets, including maintaining a minimum number of public shareholders.

If Nasdaq delists the Common Shares, investors may face material adverse consequences, including, but not limited to, a lack of a trading market for the Common Shares, reduced liquidity, a determination that our Common Shares are a "penny stock," decreased analyst coverage of the Company, and an inability for us to obtain additional financing to fund our operations.

**NioCorp may be a "passive foreign investment company" for the current taxable year and for one or more future taxable years, which may result in materially adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences for U.S. investors.**

If NioCorp is a passive foreign investment company ("PFIC") for any taxable year, or portion thereof, that is included in the holding period of a U.S. Holder (as defined in "*Certain United States Federal Income Tax Considerations*," below) of Common Shares, such U.S. Holder may be subject to certain adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences and additional reporting requirements. NioCorp believes that it was classified as a PFIC for its taxable years ended June 30, 2025 and June 30, 2024 and, based on the current composition of its income and assets, as well as current business plans and financial expectations, may be classified as a PFIC for its current and future taxable years. Any conclusion regarding PFIC status is a factual determination that must be made annually at the close of each taxable year and, thus, is subject to change. In addition, even if NioCorp concluded it did not qualify as a PFIC, it is possible that the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (the "IRS") could assert, and that a court could sustain, a determination that NioCorp is a PFIC. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that NioCorp will not be treated as a PFIC for any taxable year. Each holder of Common Shares should consult its own tax advisors regarding the PFIC rules and the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the acquisition, ownership, and disposition of such securities. See "*Certain United States Federal Income Tax Considerations*" below, for further details regarding this issue.

**The 2023 Transactions could result in NioCorp becoming subject to materially adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences.**

Section 7874 and related sections of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), provide for certain adverse tax consequences when the stock of a U.S. corporation is acquired by a non-U.S. corporation in certain transactions in which former shareholders of the U.S. corporation come to own 60% or more of the stock of the non-U.S. corporation (by vote or value, and applying certain specific counting and ownership rules). These adverse tax consequences include (i) potential additional required gain recognition by the U.S. corporation, (ii) treatment of certain payments to the non-U.S. corporation that reduce gross income as "base erosion payments," (iii) an excise tax on certain options and stock-based compensation of the U.S. corporation, (iv) disallowance of "qualified dividend" treatment for distributions by the non-U.S. corporation, and (v) if former shareholders of the U.S. corporation come to own 80% or more of the stock of the non-U.S. corporation, treatment of the non-U.S. corporation as a U.S. corporation subject to U.S. federal income tax on its worldwide income (in addition to any tax imposed by non-U.S. jurisdictions). If the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement (as defined herein) that closed in March 2023, including, among others, the GXII Transaction (as defined herein) and the Yorkville Equity Facility Financing Agreement (the "2023 Transactions") result in the application of any of these, or any other, adverse tax consequences, NioCorp could incur significant additional tax costs. While NioCorp currently does not believe the 2023 Transactions will cause such adverse tax consequences as a result of Section 7874 and related sections of the Code, this determination is subject to significant legal and factual uncertainty. NioCorp has not sought and will not seek any rulings from the IRS as to the tax treatment of any of the 2023 Transactions. Further, there can be no assurance that your tax advisor, the IRS, or a court, will agree with the position that NioCorp is not subject to these adverse tax consequences.

**If our Common Shares are considered a penny stock and are subject to the penny stock rules, broker-dealers may be discouraged from effecting transactions in Common Shares.**

Our Common Shares have in the past, and may in the future, be considered a "penny stock." The SEC has adopted Rule 15g-9 which generally defines "penny stock" to be any equity security that has a market price (as defined) less than $5.00 per share or an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. Applicable penny stock rules impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell to persons other than established customers and "accredited investors." The term "accredited investor" refers generally to institutions with assets in excess of $5.0 million or individuals with a net worth in excess of $1.0 million or annual income exceeding $200,000 or $300,000, jointly with their spouse. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document in a form prepared by the SEC, which provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the

broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction, and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account. The bid and offer quotations, and the broker-dealer and salesperson compensation information, must be given to the customer orally or in writing prior to effecting the transaction and must be given to the customer in writing before or with the customer's confirmation. In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from these rules, the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written agreement to the transaction. If and when applicable, these disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market for the Common Shares. Consequently, these penny stock rules may affect the ability of broker-dealers to trade in the Common Shares.

**We have never paid dividends on the Common Shares.**

We have not paid dividends on the Common Shares to date, and we may not be in a position to pay dividends for the foreseeable future. Our ability to pay dividends with respect to the Common Shares will depend on our ability to successfully develop one or more properties and generate earnings from operations. Further, our initial earnings, if any, will likely be retained to finance our operations. Any future dividends on Common Shares will depend upon our earnings, our then-existing financial requirements, and other factors, and will be at the discretion of our Board.

**This offering is being conducted on a "reasonable best efforts" basis.**

The Placement Agent is offering the Common Shares on a "reasonable best efforts" basis, and the Placement Agent is under no obligation to purchase any securities for its own account. The Placement Agent is not required to sell any specific number or dollar amount of Common Shares in this offering but will use its best efforts to sell the securities offered in this prospectus supplement. As a "reasonable best efforts" offering, there can be no assurance that the offering contemplated hereby will ultimately be consummated. In addition, because purchasers in this offering may not enter into a securities purchase agreement, purchasers will have no contractual obligation to us to consummate their purchase at closing. Accordingly, your decision to invest in our securities in this offering should not be based on an expectation that we will ultimately consummate sales in any specified amount. We are not requiring any minimum purchase or sale of any specific number of securities in the offering for us to consummate sales with each purchaser.

Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those described herein. This list is not exhaustive of the factors that may affect any of the Company's forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are statements about the future and are inherently uncertain, and actual achievements of the Company or other future events or conditions may differ materially from those reflected in the forward-looking statements due to a variety of risks, uncertainties, and other factors, including without limitation those discussed in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus under the heading "*Risk Factors*" and under Part I, Item 1A. "Risk Factors" contained in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, and Part II, Item 1A. "Risk Factors" contained in our subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, as well as any amendments thereto, which are incorporated by reference into this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus in their entirety, together with other information in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference herein and therein. See the sections of this prospectus supplement entitled "*Where You Can Find More Information*" and "*Incorporation of Documents by Reference*."

The Company's forward-looking statements contained in this prospectus supplement are based on the beliefs, expectations, and opinions of management as of the date of this prospectus supplement.

For the reasons set forth above, investors should not attribute undue certainty to, or place undue reliance on, forward-looking statements.

**Use of Proceeds**

We estimate that the net proceeds from the sale of the Common Shares offered hereby, after deducting the Placement Agent commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us, will be approximately $41.2 million.

We expect to use the net proceeds from this offering for working capital and general corporate purposes, including to advance our efforts to launch construction of the Elk Creek Project and move it to commercial operation.

**Dilution**

If you invest in our Common Shares in this offering, your interest will be diluted immediately to the extent of the difference between the offering price per Common Share and the adjusted net tangible book value per Common Share after this offering.

Our net tangible book value as of March 31, 2025, was approximately $8.8 million, or $0.19 per Common Share, based upon the number of Common Shares outstanding as of that date. Net tangible book value per share is determined by dividing our total tangible assets, less total liabilities, by the number of Common Shares outstanding. Dilution in net tangible book value per share represents the difference between the amount per share paid by purchasers of Common Shares in this offering and the net tangible book value per Common Share immediately after this offering.

After giving effect to the sale by us of 13,850,000 Common Shares at the offering price of $3.25 per Common Share and after deducting the Placement Agent commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us, our as-adjusted net tangible book value as of March 31, 2025 would have been approximately 50.0 million, or $0.82 per Common Share. This represents an immediate increase in the net tangible book value of $0.63 per Common Share to our existing shareholders and an immediate and substantial dilution in net tangible book value of $2.43 per Common Share to new investors purchasing our Common Shares in this offering.

The following table illustrates this per Common Share dilution:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| Offering price per Common Share |  | $3.25 |
| Net tangible book value per Common Share as of March 31, 2025 | $0.19 |  |
| Increase in net tangible book value per Common Share attributable to this offering | $0.63 |  |
| As adjusted net tangible book value per Common Share as of March 31, 2025, after giving effect to this offering |  | $0.82 |
| Dilution per Common Share to new investors purchasing Common Shares in this offering |  | $2.43 |

---

The above discussion and table are based on 47,188,119 Common Shares outstanding as of March 31, 2025 and excludes the following securities:

● Common Shares issuable upon exercise of outstanding stock options under the LTIP;

● Common Shares reserved for future issuance under the LTIP;

● Common Shares issuable in respect of the commitment amount under the Yorkville Equity Facility Financing Agreement;

● an aggregate of 7,325,627 Common Shares issuable under certain conditions upon exchange of shares of Class B common stock of ECRC;

● an aggregate of 17,519,864 Common Shares issuable upon exercise of NioCorp Assumed Warrants;

● an aggregate of 11,918,231 Common Shares issuable upon exercise of other outstanding Common Share purchase warrants with a weighted-average exercise price of approximately $2.18;

● an aggregate of 1,063,462 Common Shares issuable upon exercise of the April Pre-Funded Warrants;

● Common Shares issued since March 31, 2025, including 6,952,350 Common Shares issued in connection with the Company's underwritten registered direct offering that closed on April 21, 2025; and

● 3,752,492 Common Shares issued under the Yorkville Equity Facility Financing Agreement.

**Description of Securities**

**Common Shares**

The authorized capital of the Company consists of an unlimited number of Common Shares, without par value. The holders of Common Shares are entitled to receive notice of and attend all meetings of shareholders, with each Common Share held entitling the holder to one (1) vote on any resolution to be passed at such shareholder meetings. The holders of Common Shares are entitled to dividends if, as and when declared by the Company's Board of Directors. The Common Shares are entitled, upon liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the Company, to receive the remaining assets of the Company available for distribution to shareholders. There are no pre-emptive, conversion, or redemption rights attached to the Common Shares.

**Exchange Controls**

There are no governmental laws, decrees, or regulations in Canada that restrict the export or import of capital, including foreign exchange controls, or that affect the remittance of dividends, interest or other payments to non-resident holders of the securities of the Company, other than as discussed below and Canadian withholding tax. See "*Certain Canadian Federal Income Tax Considerations for U.S. Residents*" below.

**Competition Act**

Limitations on the ability to acquire and hold Common Shares may be imposed by the Competition Act (Canada). This legislation permits the Commissioner of Competition of Canada (the "Commissioner") to review any acquisition of a significant interest in the Company. This legislation grants the Commissioner jurisdiction to challenge such an acquisition before the Canadian Competition Tribunal if the Commissioner believes that it would, or would be likely to, result in a substantial lessening or prevention of competition in any market in Canada.

**Investment Canada Act**

The Investment Canada Act subjects an acquisition of control of a Canadian business by a non-Canadian to government notification or review depending on whether the relevant financial threshold (based on enterprise value or asset value of the company), as calculated pursuant to the legislation, exceeds a threshold amount. A reviewable acquisition may not proceed unless the relevant minister is satisfied that the investment is likely to result in a net benefit to Canada. Under the national-security-review regime in the Investment Canada Act, review on a discretionary basis may also be undertaken by the federal government in respect of a broad range of investments by a non-Canadian. No financial threshold applies to a national security review. The relevant test is whether such investment by a non-Canadian could be "injurious to national security."

**Warrants**

From time to time, the Company has outstanding Common Share purchase warrants, with each Common Share purchase warrant exercisable for one Common Share. The exercise price per Common Share and the number of Common Shares issuable upon exercise of Common Share purchase warrants is subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain events, including, but not limited to, the following:

● the subdivision or re-division of the outstanding Common Shares into a greater number of Common Shares;

● the reduction, combination or consolidation of the outstanding Common Shares into a lesser number of Common Shares;

● the issuance of Common Shares or securities exchangeable for, or convertible into, Common Shares to all or substantially all of the holders of Common Shares by way of stock dividend or other distribution (other than a distribution of Common Shares upon the exercise of Common Share purchase warrants or any outstanding options);

● the reorganization of the Company or the consolidation or merger or amalgamation of the Company with or into another corporate body; and

● a reclassification or other similar change to the outstanding Common Shares.

The Company will issue the Common Shares issuable upon exercise of Common Share purchase warrants within five business days following its receipt of notice of exercise and payment of the exercise price, subject to surrender of the Common Share purchase warrants. Prior to the exercise of any Common Share purchase warrants, holders of the Common Share purchase warrants will not have any of the rights of holders of the Common Shares issuable upon exercise, including the right to vote or to receive any payments of dividends on the Common Shares issuable upon exercise.

**NioCorp Assumed Warrants**

On March 17, 2023 (the "Closing Date"), the Company closed a series of transactions (the "GXII Transaction") pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, dated as of September 25, 2022 (the "Business Combination Agreement"), by and among the Company, GX Acquisition Corp. II, a Delaware corporation ("GXII"), and Big Red Merger Sub Ltd., a Delaware corporation and a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. In connection with the closing of the GXII Transaction (the "Closing"), pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, the Company assumed GXII's obligations under the Warrant Agreement, dated as of March 17, 2021 (the "GXII Warrant Agreement"), by and between GXII and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company ("CST"), as warrant agent, and each share purchase warrant of GXII thereunder (the "GXII Warrants") that was issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Closing Date was converted into one Common Share purchase warrant (the "NioCorp Assumed Warrants") pursuant to the GXII Warrant Agreement, as amended by an Assignment, Assumption and Amendment Agreement, dated the Closing Date (the GXII Warrant Agreement, as so amended, the "NioCorp Assumed Warrant Agreement"), among the Company, GXII, CST, as existing warrant agent, and Computershare Inc. and its affiliate Computershare Trust Company, N.A, together as successor warrant agent (the "NioCorp Assumed Warrant Agent"). In connection with the Closing, NioCorp issued (a) 9,999,959 public NioCorp Assumed Warrants in respect of the GXII Warrants that were publicly traded prior to the Closing and (b) 5,666,667 NioCorp Assumed Warrants to GX Sponsor II LLC (the "Sponsor") in respect of the GXII Warrants that it held prior to the Closing, which NioCorp Assumed Warrants were subsequently distributed by the Sponsor to its members in connection with the Closing.

Both the public NioCorp Assumed Warrants and the NioCorp Assumed Warrants issued to the Sponsor are subject to the terms of the NioCorp Assumed Warrant Agreement and are identical, with certain exceptions applicable to the NioCorp Assumed Warrants issued to the Sponsor for so long as such NioCorp Assumed Warrants are held by the Sponsor, its members, or their respective affiliates and other permitted transferees. In accordance with the NioCorp Assumed Warrant Agreement, any NioCorp Assumed Warrants issued to the Sponsor that are held by someone other than the Sponsor, its members, or their respective affiliates and other permitted transferees, are treated as public NioCorp Assumed Warrants.

Each NioCorp Assumed Warrant is exercisable on and after April 16, 2023 until its expiration for 1.11829212 Common Shares at a price of $11.50 per 1.11829212 Common Shares (subject to adjustments for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like). Under the terms of NioCorp Assumed Warrant Agreement, for so long as the NioCorp Assumed Warrants issued to the Sponsor are held by the Sponsor, its members, or their respective affiliates and other permitted transferees, such holders have the right to elect to exercise those NioCorp Assumed Warrants on a cashless basis. For such NioCorp Assumed Warrants exercised on a cashless basis after the Closing, the holder will be entitled to pay the exercise price for those NioCorp Assumed Warrants by surrendering all or portion of the cash and/or Common Shares (valued at their fair market value) into which those NioCorp Assumed Warrants are exercisable as shall be elected by the holder. For this purpose, Common Shares so surrendered will be deemed to have a "fair market value" equal to the average reported last sale price of the Common Shares for the 10 trading days ending on the third trading day prior to the date of exercise of the applicable NioCorp Assumed Warrants.

The NioCorp Assumed Warrants will expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on March 17, 2028 or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.

The Company will not be obligated to deliver any Common Shares pursuant to the exercise of a NioCorp Assumed Warrant and will have no obligation to settle such exercise unless a registration statement under the Securities Act with respect to the Common Shares underlying the NioCorp Assumed Warrants is then effective and a prospectus relating thereto is current, subject to the Company satisfying its obligations described below with respect to registration. No NioCorp Assumed Warrant will be exercisable and the Company will not be obligated to issue Common Shares upon exercise of a NioCorp Assumed Warrant unless Common Shares issuable upon such exercise have been registered, qualified or deemed to be exempt under the securities laws of the state of residence of the registered holder of the NioCorp Assumed Warrants. In the event that the conditions in the two immediately preceding sentences are not satisfied with respect to a NioCorp Assumed Warrant, the holder of such NioCorp Assumed Warrant will not be entitled to exercise such NioCorp Assumed Warrant and such NioCorp Assumed Warrant may have no value and expire worthless. In no event will the Company be required to net cash settle any NioCorp Assumed Warrant.

The NioCorp Assumed Warrants, and the underlying Common Shares issuable upon the exercise thereof, were registered under the Securities Act pursuant to the Company's registration statement on Form S-4, originally filed on November 7, 2022, as subsequently amended, which was declared effective by the SEC on February 8, 2023. The ongoing registered offering of the Common Shares underlying the NioCorp Assumed Warrants is being conducted pursuant to the Company's registration statement on Form S-3, originally filed on April 14, 2023, as subsequently post-effectively amended to convert such registration statement to Form S-1, which was declared effective on October 30, 2023.

The Company will have the right to call the public NioCorp Assumed Warrants for redemption at any time following the Closing Date:

● in whole and not in part;

● at a price of $0.01 per NioCorp Assumed Warrant;

● upon not less than 30 days' prior written notice of redemption (the "30-day redemption period") to each public NioCorp Assumed Warrant holder;

● if, and only if, the reported last sale price of the Common Shares equals or exceeds approximately $16.10 per share (subject to certain adjustments) for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period commencing once the NioCorp Assumed Warrants become exercisable and ending three business days before the Company sends the notice of redemption to the public NioCorp Assumed Warrant holders; and

● if there is an effective registration statement covering the Common Shares issuable upon exercise of the NioCorp Assumed Warrants, and a current prospectus relating thereto, available throughout the 30-day redemption period.

The NioCorp Assumed Warrants issued to the Sponsor are not redeemable by the Company for so long as such NioCorp Assumed Warrants are held by the Sponsor, its members, or their respective affiliates or other permitted transferees. In addition, the Company may not exercise its redemption right if the issuance of Common Shares upon exercise of the NioCorp Assumed Warrants is not exempt from registration or qualification under applicable state blue sky laws or the Company is unable to effect such registration or qualification.

If the Company calls the public NioCorp Assumed Warrants for redemption as described above, the Company will have the option to require any holder that wishes to exercise its public NioCorp Assumed Warrant to do so on a "cashless basis." In determining whether to require all holders to exercise their public NioCorp Assumed Warrants on a "cashless basis," the Company will consider, among other factors, its cash position, the number of NioCorp Assumed Warrants that are outstanding and the dilutive effect on the Company's shareholders of issuing the maximum number of Common Shares issuable upon the exercise of the NioCorp Assumed Warrants. If the Company takes advantage of this option, all holders of public NioCorp Assumed Warrants would pay the exercise price by surrendering their NioCorp Assumed Warrants for that number of Common Shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the product of the number of Common Shares underlying the public NioCorp Assumed Warrants, multiplied by the difference between the exercise price of the NioCorp Assumed Warrants and the "fair market value" (defined below) by (y) the fair market value. The "fair market value" shall mean the average reported last sale price of the Common Shares for the 10 trading days ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which the notice of redemption is sent to the holders of public NioCorp Assumed Warrants. If the Company takes advantage of this option, the notice of redemption will contain the information necessary to calculate the number of Common Shares to be received upon exercise of the NioCorp Assumed Warrants, including the "fair market value" in such case. Requiring a cashless exercise in this manner will reduce the number of Common Shares to be issued and thereby lessen the dilutive effect of a redemption of the public NioCorp Assumed Warrants. If the Company calls the public NioCorp Assumed Warrants for redemption and does not take advantage of this option, the Sponsor, its members, and their respective affiliates and other permitted transferees would still be entitled to exercise their NioCorp Assumed Warrants for cash or on a cashless basis using the same formula described above that other NioCorp Assumed Warrant holders would have been required to use had all NioCorp Assumed Warrant holders been required to exercise their NioCorp Assumed Warrants on a cashless basis, as described in more detail below.

A holder of a NioCorp Assumed Warrant may notify the Company in writing in the event it elects to be subject to a requirement that such holder will not have the right to exercise such NioCorp Assumed Warrant, to the extent that after giving effect to such exercise, such holder (together with such holder's affiliates), to the NioCorp Assumed Warrant Agent's actual knowledge, would beneficially own in excess of 4.9% or 9.8% (or such other amount as a holder may specify) of the Common Shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to such exercise.

The NioCorp Assumed Warrants have certain anti-dilution and adjustments rights upon certain events.

The NioCorp Assumed Warrants may be exercised upon surrender of the certificate representing such NioCorp Assumed Warrants on or prior to the expiration date at the offices of the NioCorp Assumed Warrant Agent, with the exercise form on the reverse side of such certificate completed and executed as indicated, accompanied by full payment of the exercise price (or on a cashless basis, if applicable), by certified or official bank check payable to the order of the NioCorp Assumed Warrant Agent or by wire transfer, for the number of NioCorp Assumed Warrants being exercised. The NioCorp Assumed Warrant holders will not have the rights or privileges of holders of Common Shares or any attendant voting rights until they exercise their NioCorp Assumed Warrants and receive Common Shares. After the issuance of Common Shares upon exercise of the NioCorp Assumed Warrants, each holder will be entitled to one (1) vote for each Common Share held of record on all matters to be voted on by NioCorp shareholders.

If, upon exercise of the NioCorp Assumed Warrants, a holder would be entitled to receive a fractional interest in a share, the Company will, upon exercise, round down to the nearest whole number of Common Shares to be issued to the NioCorp Assumed Warrant holder.

The NioCorp Assumed Warrants were issued in registered form under the NioCorp Assumed Warrant Agreement. The NioCorp Assumed Warrant Agreement may be amended by the parties thereto without the consent of any registered holder (i) for the purpose of curing any ambiguity, or curing, correcting or supplementing any mistake, or adding or changing any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under NioCorp Assumed Warrant Agreement as the parties may deem necessary or desirable and that the parties deem shall not adversely affect the interest of the registered holders of the NioCorp Assumed Warrants, and (ii) to provide for the delivery of such kind and amount of Common Shares or other securities or property (including cash) receivable upon a reclassification, reorganization, merger or consolidation, or upon a dissolution following any such sale or transfer, that the holder of NioCorp Assumed Warrants would have received if such holder had exercised his, her or its NioCorp Assumed Warrants immediately prior to such event. All other modifications or amendments, including any amendment to increase the warrant price or shorten the exercise period, shall require the vote or written consent of the registered holders of a majority of the then outstanding public NioCorp Assumed Warrants. Any amendment solely to the NioCorp Assumed Warrants issued to the Sponsor and that are held by the Sponsor, its members, or their respective affiliates or other permitted transferees, shall require the vote or written consent of a majority of the holders of the then outstanding NioCorp Assumed Warrants issued to the Sponsor.

**Certain United States Federal Income Tax Considerations**

The following is a general summary of certain U.S. federal income tax considerations applicable to a U.S. Holder (as defined below) arising from and relating to the acquisition, ownership, and disposition of Common Shares issued pursuant to this offering (the "Shares"). This summary is for general information purposes only and does not purport to be a complete analysis or listing of all potential U.S. federal income tax considerations that may apply to a U.S. Holder of Shares. In addition, this summary does not take into account the individual facts and circumstances of any particular U.S. Holder that may affect the U.S. federal income tax consequences to such U.S. Holder, including, without limitation, specific tax consequences to a U.S. Holder under an applicable income tax treaty. Accordingly, this summary is not intended to be, and should not be construed as, legal or U.S. federal income tax advice with respect to any U.S. Holder. This summary does not address any tax consequences to U.S. Holders arising from the U.S. federal alternative minimum tax or the Medicare tax on investment income, U.S. federal estate, gift and other non-income taxes, U.S. state and local taxes, or any non-U.S. tax. In addition, except as specifically set forth below, this summary does not discuss applicable tax reporting requirements. Each prospective U.S. Holder should consult its own tax advisors regarding the U.S. federal, U.S. federal alternative minimum, U.S. federal net investment income, U.S. federal estate and gift, U.S. state and local, and non-U.S. tax considerations relevant to the Shares.

No legal opinion from legal counsel or ruling from the IRS has been requested, or will be obtained, regarding the U.S. federal income tax considerations relevant to the Shares. This summary is not binding on the IRS, and the IRS is not precluded from taking a position that is different from, and contrary to, the positions taken in this summary. In addition, because the authorities on which this summary is based are subject to various interpretations, the IRS and the U.S. courts could disagree with one or more of the conclusions described in this summary.

**Scope of this Summary**

**Authorities**

This summary is based on the Code, Treasury Regulations (whether final, temporary, or proposed), published rulings and administrative positions of the IRS, the Convention Between Canada and the United States of America with Respect to Taxes on Income and on Capital, signed September 26, 1980, as amended (the "Canada-U.S. Tax Convention"), and U.S. court decisions that are applicable, and, in each case, as in effect and available, as of the date of this document. Any of the authorities on which this summary is based could be changed in a material and adverse manner at any time, and any such change could be applied retroactively. This summary does not discuss the potential effects, whether adverse or beneficial, of any proposed legislation.

**U.S. Holders**

For purposes of this summary, the term "U.S. Holder" means a beneficial owner of Shares that is for U.S. federal income tax purposes:

● an individual who is a citizen or resident of the United States;

● a corporation (or other entity treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes) organized under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia;

● an estate whose income is subject to U.S. federal income taxation regardless of its source; or

● a trust that (1) is subject to the primary supervision of a court within the U.S. and the control of one or more U.S. persons for all substantial decisions or (2) has a valid election in effect under applicable Treasury Regulations to be treated as a U.S. person.

**U.S. Holders Subject to Special U.S. Federal Income Tax Rules Not Addressed**

This summary does not address the U.S. federal income tax considerations applicable to U.S. Holders that are subject to special provisions under the Code, including, but not limited to, U.S. Holders that: (a) are tax-exempt organizations, qualified retirement plans, individual retirement accounts, or other tax-deferred accounts; (b) are financial institutions, underwriters, insurance companies, real estate investment trusts, regulated investment companies, or S corporations (or S corporation shareholders); (c) are broker-dealers, dealers, or traders in securities or currencies that elect to apply a mark-to-market accounting method; (d) have a "functional currency" other than the U.S. dollar; (e) own Shares as part of a straddle, hedging transaction, conversion transaction, constructive sale, or other arrangement involving more than one position; (f) acquire Shares in connection with the exercise of employee stock options or otherwise as compensation for services; (g) hold Shares other than as a capital asset within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Code (generally, property held for investment purposes); (h) hold Shares in connection with a trade or business, permanent establishment, or fixed base outside the United States; or (i) own, have owned or will own (directly, indirectly, or by attribution) 10% or more of the total combined voting power or value of the outstanding equity of the Company. This summary also does not address any tax considerations applicable to U.S. Holders who are: (a) U.S. expatriates or former long-term residents of the U.S.; (b) persons that have been, are, or will be a resident or deemed to be a resident in Canada for purposes of the Income Tax Act (Canada) and the regulations enacted thereunder (the "Canadian Tax Act"); (c) persons that use or hold, will use or hold, or that are or will be deemed to use or hold Shares in connection with carrying on a business in Canada; (d) persons whose Shares constitute "taxable Canadian property" under the Canadian Tax Act; or (e) persons that have a permanent establishment in Canada for the purposes of the Canada-U.S. Tax Convention. U.S. Holders that are subject to special provisions under the Code, including, but not limited to, U.S. Holders described immediately above, should consult their own tax advisors regarding the tax considerations relevant to the Shares.

If an entity or arrangement that is classified as a partnership (or other "pass-through" entity) for U.S. federal income tax purposes holds Shares, the U.S. federal income tax consequences to such entity or arrangement and the partners (or other owners or participants) of such entity or arrangement generally will depend on the activities of the entity or arrangement and the status of such partners (or owners or participants). This summary does not address the tax consequences to any such partner (or owner or participant). Partners (or other owners or participants) of entities or arrangements that are classified as partnerships or as "pass-through" entities for U.S. federal income tax purposes should consult their own tax advisors regarding the U.S. federal income tax considerations relevant to the Shares.

**General Rules Applicable to the Ownership and Disposition of Shares**

***Distributions on Shares***

A U.S. Holder that receives a distribution, including a constructive distribution, with respect to a Share will be required to include the amount of such distribution in gross income as a dividend (without reduction for any Canadian income tax withheld from such distribution) to the extent of the current and accumulated "earnings and profits" of the Company, as computed for U.S. federal income tax purposes. To the extent that a distribution exceeds the current and accumulated "earnings and profits" of the Company, such distribution will be treated, first, as a tax-free return of capital to the extent of a U.S. Holder's tax basis in the Shares and thereafter as gain from the sale or exchange of such Shares. However, the Company may not maintain the calculations of its earnings and profits in accordance with U.S. federal income tax principles, and U.S. Holders may have to assume that any distribution by the Company with respect to the Shares will constitute ordinary dividend income in its entirety. Dividends received on Shares by a corporate U.S. Holder (other than certain 10% corporate shareholders) generally will not be eligible for a "dividends received deduction." Provided that (1) the Company is eligible for the benefits of the Canada-U.S. Tax Convention or (2) the Shares are readily tradable on a United States securities market (and certain holding period and other conditions are satisfied), dividends paid by the Company to non-corporate U.S. Holders, including individuals, will be eligible for the preferential tax rates applicable to long-term capital gains for dividends unless the Company is classified as a PFIC in the taxable year of distribution or in the preceding taxable year. See "—*Passive Foreign Investment Company Rules*—*Risk of PFIC Status for the Company*" below. The dividend rules are complex, and each U.S. Holder should consult its own tax advisors regarding the application of such rules.

***Sales or Other Taxable Dispositions of Shares***

Upon the sale or other taxable disposition of Shares, subject to the potential application of the PFIC rules as described below, a U.S. Holder generally will recognize capital gain or loss in an amount equal to the difference between (i) the U.S. dollar value of cash received plus the fair market value of any property received and (ii) such U.S. Holder's adjusted tax basis in such Shares sold or otherwise disposed of. A U.S. Holder's tax basis in Shares generally will be determined initially by the holder's U.S. dollar cost for such securities (subject to any adjustments provided under the PFIC rules, described below). Subject again to the PFIC rules, gain or loss recognized on such sale or other disposition generally will be long-term capital gain or loss if, at the time of the sale or other disposition, the Shares have been held for more than one year. Any gain or loss will generally be U.S. source for U.S. foreign tax credit purposes.

Preferential tax rates currently apply to long-term capital gain of a U.S. Holder that is an individual, estate, or trust. There are currently no preferential tax rates for long-term capital gain of a U.S. Holder that is a corporation. Deductions for capital losses are subject to significant limitations under the Code. If the Company is determined to be a PFIC, any gain realized on the Shares could be ordinary income under the rules discussed below.

**Passive Foreign Investment Company Rules**

***Risk of PFIC Status for the Company***

If the Company were to constitute a PFIC under the meaning of Section 1297 of the Code for any taxable year during the holding period of a U.S. Holder of Shares, then certain potentially adverse U.S. federal income tax rules may apply to the U.S. Holder. While this summary cannot describe all of the potentially adverse consequences that would result if the Company were treated as a PFIC for a relevant taxable year, certain material consequences and related considerations are described below.

The Company believes that it was classified as a PFIC during the taxable years ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, and, based on the current composition of its income and assets, as well as current business plans and financial expectations, may meet the PFIC qualification tests for its current taxable year or in future taxable years. No opinion of legal counsel or ruling from the IRS concerning the PFIC status of the Company or any subsidiary has been obtained or is currently planned to be requested. The determination of whether any corporation was, or will be, a PFIC for a taxable year depends, in part, on the application of complex U.S. federal income tax rules, which are subject to differing interpretations. In addition, whether any corporation will be a PFIC for any taxable year depends on the assets and income of such corporation over the course of each such taxable year and, as a result, cannot be predicted with certainty as of the date of this document. In addition, even if the Company concluded that it or any subsidiary did not qualify as a PFIC, the IRS could challenge any determination made by the Company (or any subsidiary of the Company) concerning its PFIC status in any taxable year, and a court could sustain such challenge. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the Company or any subsidiary will not be treated as a PFIC for any taxable year. Each U.S. Holder should consult its own tax advisors regarding the PFIC status of the Company and each subsidiary of the Company.

In any taxable year in which the Company is classified as a PFIC, a U.S. Holder will be required to file an annual report with the IRS containing such information as Treasury Regulations and/or other IRS guidance may require. IRS Form 8621 is currently used for such filings. In addition to penalties, a failure to satisfy such reporting requirements may result in an extension of the time period during which the IRS can assess a tax. U.S. Holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding the requirements of filing such information returns under these rules, including the requirement to file an IRS Form 8621 annually.

The Company generally would be a PFIC for a particular taxable year if, for such year, (a) 75% or more of the gross income of the Company is passive income (the "PFIC income test") or (b) 50% or more of the value of the Company's assets either produce passive income or are held for the production of passive income, based on the quarterly average of the fair market value of such assets (the "PFIC asset test"). "Gross income" generally includes all sales revenues less the cost of goods sold, plus income from investments and from incidental or outside operations or sources, and "passive income" generally includes, for example, dividends, interest, certain rents and royalties, certain gains from the sale of stock and securities, and certain gains from commodities transactions. Active business gains arising from the sale of commodities generally are excluded from passive income if substantially all of a foreign corporation's business is as an active producer, processor, merchant or handler of commodities, and certain other requirements are satisfied.

For purposes of the PFIC income test and PFIC asset test described above, if the Company owns, directly or indirectly, 25% or more of the total value of the outstanding shares of another corporation, the Company will be treated as if it (a) held a proportionate share of the assets of such other corporation and (b) received directly a proportionate share of the income of such other corporation. In addition, for purposes of the PFIC income test and PFIC asset test described above, and assuming certain other requirements are met, "passive income" does not include certain interest, dividends, rents, or royalties that are received or accrued by the Company from certain "related persons" (as defined in Section 954(d)(3) of the Code) also organized in Canada, to the extent such items are properly allocable to the income of such related person that is neither passive income nor income connected with a U.S. trade or business.

Under certain attribution rules, if the Company is a PFIC, U.S. Holders will generally be deemed to own their proportionate share of the Company's direct or indirect equity interest in any company that is also a PFIC (a "Subsidiary PFIC"), and will generally be subject to U.S. federal income tax on their proportionate share of (a) any "excess distributions," as described below, on the stock of a Subsidiary PFIC and (b) a disposition or deemed disposition of the stock of a Subsidiary PFIC by the Company or another Subsidiary PFIC, both as if such U.S. Holders directly held the shares of such Subsidiary PFIC. In addition, U.S. Holders may be subject to U.S. federal income tax on any indirect gain realized on the stock of a Subsidiary PFIC on the indirect sale or disposition thereof. Accordingly, U.S. Holders should be aware that they could be subject to tax under the PFIC rules even if no distributions are received from the Company and no redemptions or other dispositions are made.

***Default PFIC Rules***

If the Company is a PFIC for any taxable year during which a U.S. Holder owns Shares, the U.S. federal income tax consequences to such U.S. Holder will depend on whether and when such U.S. Holder makes an election to treat the Company and each Subsidiary PFIC, if any, as a "qualified electing fund" ("QEF") under Section 1295 of the Code (a "QEF Election") or makes a mark-to-market election under Section 1296 of the Code (a "Mark-to-Market Election"). A U.S. Holder that does not make either a QEF Election or a Mark-to-Market Election will be referred to in this summary as a "Non-Electing U.S. Holder."

A Non-Electing U.S. Holder will be subject to the rules of Section 1291 of the Code (described below) with respect to (a) any gain recognized on the sale or other taxable disposition of Shares and (b) any "excess distribution" received on the Shares. A distribution generally will be an "excess distribution" to the extent that such distribution (together with all other distributions received in the current taxable year) exceeds 125% of the average distributions received during the three preceding taxable years (or during a U.S. Holder's holding period for the relevant Shares, if shorter).

If the Company is a PFIC, under Section 1291 of the Code, any gain recognized on the sale or other taxable disposition of Shares (including an indirect disposition of the stock of any Subsidiary PFIC), and any "excess distribution" received on Shares or deemed received with respect to the stock of a Subsidiary PFIC, must be ratably allocated to each day in a Non-Electing U.S. Holder's holding period for the respective Shares, as applicable. The amount of any such gain or excess distribution allocated to the taxable year of disposition or distribution of the excess distribution, or allocated to years before the entity became a PFIC, if any, would be taxed as ordinary income at the rates applicable for such year (and not eligible for certain preferential rates, as discussed below). The amounts allocated to any other taxable year would be subject to U.S. federal income tax at the highest tax rate applicable to ordinary income in each such year. In addition, an interest charge would be imposed on the tax liability for each such year, calculated as if such tax liability had been due in each such year. A Non-Electing U.S. Holder that is not a corporation must treat any such interest paid as "personal interest," which is not deductible.

If the Company is a PFIC for any taxable year during which a Non-Electing U.S. Holder holds Shares, the Company will continue to be treated as a PFIC with respect to such Non-Electing U.S. Holder, regardless of whether the Company ceases to be a PFIC in one or more subsequent taxable years. A Non-Electing U.S. Holder may terminate this deemed PFIC status by making a "purging" election to recognize gain (which will be taxed under the rules of Section 1291 of the Code discussed above), but not loss, as if such Shares were sold on the last day of the last taxable year for which the Company was a PFIC.

In addition to the rules described above applying to "excess distributions" and certain other dispositions of Shares, certain other adverse U.S. federal income tax rules may apply with respect to a U.S. Holder if the Company is a PFIC, including in some cases even if the U.S. Holder makes a QEF Election (as described below). All of the non-PFIC rules described herein are subject to the potentially adverse consequences of PFIC status for the Company and each subsidiary of the Company. Each U.S. Holder should consult its own tax advisors regarding the full tax consequences of potential PFIC status for the Company and each subsidiary of the Company.

***QEF Election***

If the Company is a PFIC, a U.S. Holder of Shares that makes a timely and effective QEF Election for the taxable year in which the holding period of its Shares begins generally will not be subject to the rules of Section 1291 of the Code discussed above with respect to such Shares. A U.S. Holder that makes such a QEF Election will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on such U.S. Holder's pro rata share (based on its ownership of Shares) of (a) the net capital gain of the Company, which will be taxed as long-term capital gain to such U.S. Holder, and (b) the ordinary earnings of the Company, which will be taxed as ordinary income to such U.S. Holder. Generally, "net capital gain" is the excess of (a) net long-term capital gain over (b) net short-term capital loss, and "ordinary earnings" are the excess of (a) "earnings and profits" over (b) net capital gain. A U.S. Holder that makes a QEF Election will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on such amounts for each taxable year in which the Company is a PFIC, regardless of whether such amounts are actually distributed to such U.S. Holder by the Company. However, for any taxable year in which the Company is a PFIC and has no net income or gain, U.S. Holders that have made a QEF Election would not have any income inclusions as a result of the QEF Election. If a U.S. Holder that made a QEF Election has an income inclusion, such a U.S. Holder may, subject to certain limitations, elect to defer payment of current U.S. federal income tax on such amounts, subject to an interest charge. If such U.S. Holder is not a corporation, any such interest paid will be treated as "personal interest," which is not deductible.

A U.S. Holder that makes a timely and effective QEF Election with respect to the Company generally (a) may receive a tax-free distribution from the Company to the extent that such distribution represents "earnings and profits" of the Company that were previously included in income by the U.S. Holder because of such QEF Election and (b) will adjust such U.S. Holder's tax basis in the Shares to reflect the amount included in income or allowed as a tax-free distribution because of such QEF Election. A U.S. Holder that makes a QEF Election generally will recognize capital gain or loss on the sale or other taxable disposition of Shares.

A U.S. Holder may make a timely QEF Election by filing the appropriate QEF Election documents (currently IRS Form 8621) at the time such U.S. Holder files a U.S. federal income tax return for such year. If a U.S. Holder does not make a timely QEF Election for the first year in the U.S. Holder's holding period in which the Company is a PFIC, the U.S. Holder may still be able to make an effective QEF Election in a subsequent year if such U.S. Holder meets certain requirements and makes a "purging" election to recognize gain (which will be taxed under the rules of Section 1291 of the Code discussed above) as if its Shares were sold for their fair market value on the day the QEF Election is effective. If a U.S. Holder makes a QEF Election but does not make a "purging" election to recognize gain as discussed in the preceding sentence, then such U.S. Holder shall be subject to the QEF Election rules and shall continue to be subject to tax under the rules of Section 1291 of the Code discussed above with respect to its Shares. If a U.S. Holder owns PFIC stock indirectly through another PFIC, separate QEF Elections must be made for the PFIC in which the U.S. Holder is a direct shareholder and the Subsidiary PFIC for the QEF rules to apply to both PFICs.

A QEF Election will apply to the taxable year for which such QEF Election is timely made and to all subsequent taxable years, unless such QEF Election is invalidated or terminated or the IRS consents to revocation of such QEF Election. If a U.S. Holder makes a QEF Election and, in a subsequent taxable year, the Company ceases to be a PFIC, the QEF Election will remain in effect (although it will not be applicable) during those taxable years in which the Company is not a PFIC. Accordingly, if the Company becomes a PFIC in another subsequent taxable year, the QEF Election will be effective, and the U.S. Holder will be subject to the QEF rules described above during any subsequent taxable year in which the Company qualifies as a PFIC.

The Company will endeavor to provide U.S. Holders with the required information to allow U.S. Holders to make a QEF Election with respect to the Shares in the event that the Company determines it is treated as a PFIC for any taxable year. There can be no assurance, however, that the Company will timely provide such information for any particular year, or that the Company's determination regarding its PFIC status will be upheld. U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors to determine whether any of these QEF Elections will be available and if so, what the consequences of these elections would be in their particular circumstances.

A U.S. Holder makes a QEF Election by attaching a completed IRS Form 8621, including a PFIC Annual Information Statement, to a timely filed United States federal income tax return. However, if the Company does not timely provide the required information with regard to the Company or any of its Subsidiary PFICs, U.S. Holders may not be able to make a QEF Election for such entity and, unless they make the Mark-to- Market Election discussed in the next section, will continue to be subject to the rules of Section 1291 of the Code discussed above that apply to Non-Electing U.S. Holders with respect to the taxation of gains and excess distributions.

**Mark-to-Market Election**

A U.S. Holder may make a Mark-to-Market Election only with respect to Shares that are marketable stock. The Shares generally will be "marketable stock" if they are regularly traded on (a) a national securities exchange that is registered with the SEC, (b) the national market system established pursuant to Section 11A of the Exchange Act, or (c) a foreign securities exchange that is regulated or supervised by a governmental authority of the country in which the market is located, provided that the foreign exchange meets certain trading volume and other requirements. If such stock is traded on such a qualified exchange or other market, such stock generally will be "regularly traded" for any calendar year during which such stock is traded, other than in de minimis quantities, on at least 15 days during each calendar quarter. The Company expects that the Shares will meet the definition of "marketable stock," although there can be no assurance of this, especially as regards the required trading frequency.

If a U.S. Holder makes a Mark-to-Market Election for any taxable year with respect to its Shares, it generally will not be subject to the rules of Section 1291 of the Code discussed above with respect to such Shares for such taxable year. However, if a U.S. Holder does not make a Mark-to-Market Election beginning in the first taxable year of such U.S. Holder's holding period for which the Company is a PFIC and such U.S. Holder has not made a timely QEF Election, the rules of Section 1291 of the Code discussed above will apply to certain dispositions of, and certain distributions on, the Shares.

A U.S. Holder of Shares that makes a Mark-to-Market Election will include in ordinary income, for each taxable year in which the Company is a PFIC, an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (a) the fair market value of the Shares, as of the close of such taxable year over (b) such U.S. Holder's adjusted tax basis in such Shares. A U.S. Holder of Shares that makes a Mark-to-Market Election will be allowed a deduction in an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (a) such U.S. Holder's adjusted tax basis in the Shares, over (b) the fair market value of such Shares (but only to the extent of the net amount of previously included income as a result of the Mark-to-Market Election for prior taxable years).

A U.S. Holder of Shares that makes a Mark-to-Market Election will also generally adjust its tax basis in the Shares to reflect the amount included in gross income or allowed as a deduction because of such Mark-to-Market Election. Upon a sale or other taxable disposition of Shares, a U.S. Holder that makes a Mark-to-Market Election will recognize ordinary income or ordinary loss (and such ordinary loss may be treated as capital or subject to limitations in certain cases).

A U.S. Holder of Shares makes a Mark-to-Market Election by attaching a completed IRS Form 8621 to a timely filed United States federal income tax return. A Mark-to-Market Election applies to the taxable year in which such Mark-to-Market Election is made and to each subsequent taxable year, unless the Shares cease to be "marketable stock" or the IRS consents to revocation of such election. Each U.S. Holder should consult its own tax advisors regarding the requirements for, and procedure for making, a Mark-to-Market Election.

Although a U.S. Holder may be eligible to make a Mark-to-Market Election with respect to the Shares, no such election may be made with respect to the stock of any Subsidiary PFIC that a U.S. Holder is treated as owning, because such stock is not marketable. Hence, the Mark-to-Market Election will not be effective to avoid the application of the default rules of Section 1291 of the Code described above with respect to deemed dispositions of Subsidiary PFIC stock or excess distributions from a Subsidiary PFIC to its shareholder.

**AS THE PFIC RULES ARE COMPLEX AND UNCERTAIN, U.S. HOLDERS SHOULD CONSULT WITH THEIR TAX ADVISORS TO DETERMINE THE POTENTIAL APPLICATION OF THE PFIC RULES TO THEM AND THEIR SHARES AND ANY RESULTANT TAX CONSEQUENCES, INCLUDING THE AVAILABILITY OR LACK THEREOF OF A QEF ELECTION OR MARK-TO-MARKET ELECTION.**

**Additional Considerations**

**Receipt of Foreign Currency**

The amount of any distribution paid to a U.S. Holder in foreign currency, or on the sale, exchange or other taxable disposition of Shares, generally will be equal to the U.S. dollar value of such foreign currency based on the exchange rate applicable on the date of receipt (regardless of whether such foreign currency is converted into U.S. dollars at that time). A U.S. Holder will have a basis in the foreign currency equal to its U.S. dollar value on the date of receipt. Any U.S. Holder who converts or otherwise disposes of the foreign currency after the date of receipt may have a foreign currency exchange gain or loss that would be treated as ordinary income or loss, and generally will be U.S. source income or loss for foreign tax credit purposes. Different rules apply to U.S. Holders who use the accrual method of tax accounting. Each U.S. Holder should consult its own U.S. tax advisors regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of receiving, owning, and disposing of foreign currency.

**Foreign Tax Credit**

Subject to the potential application of the PFIC rules discussed above, a U.S. Holder that pays (whether directly or through withholding) Canadian income tax with respect to dividends paid on the Shares generally will be entitled, at the election of such U.S. Holder, to receive either a deduction or a credit for such Canadian income tax. Generally, a credit will reduce a U.S. Holder's U.S. federal income tax liability on a dollar-for-dollar basis, whereas a deduction will reduce a U.S. Holder's income that is subject to U.S. federal income tax. This election is made on a year-by-year basis and applies to all foreign taxes paid (whether directly or through withholding) by a U.S. Holder during a year.

Complex limitations apply to the foreign tax credit, including the general limitation that the credit cannot exceed the proportionate share of a U.S. Holder's U.S. federal income tax liability that such U.S. Holder's "foreign source" taxable income bears to such U.S. Holder's worldwide taxable income. In applying this limitation, a U.S. Holder's various items of income and deduction must be classified, under complex rules, as either "foreign source" or "U.S. source." Generally, dividends paid on the Shares should be treated as foreign source for this purpose, and gains recognized on the sale of Shares by a U.S. Holder should be treated as U.S. source for this purpose, except as otherwise provided in an applicable income tax treaty, and if an election is properly made under the Code. However, the amount of a distribution with respect to the Shares that is treated as a "dividend" may be lower for U.S. federal income tax purposes than it is for Canadian federal income tax purposes, resulting in a reduced foreign tax credit allowance to a U.S. Holder. In addition, this limitation is calculated separately with respect to specific categories of income. The foreign tax credit rules are complex, and each U.S. Holder should consult its own U.S. tax advisors regarding their application and calculation.

**Information Reporting and Backup Withholding**

Certain U.S. Holders may be subject to certain reporting obligations with respect to Shares if the aggregate value of these and certain other "specified foreign financial assets" exceeds an applicable dollar threshold. If required, this disclosure is made by filing Form 8938 with the IRS. Significant penalties can apply if a U.S. Holder is required to make this disclosure and fails to do so. In addition, a U.S. Holder should consider the possible obligation to file online a FinCEN Form 114—Foreign Bank and Financial Accounts Report, as a result of holding Shares in certain accounts. Holders are urged to consult their U.S. tax advisors with respect to these and other reporting requirements that may apply to their acquisition of Shares.

Dividend payments (including constructive dividends) with respect to Shares and proceeds from the sale, exchange or redemption of Shares may be subject to information reporting to the IRS and possible United States backup withholding. Backup withholding (currently at a rate of 24%) will not apply, however, to a U.S. Holder who furnishes a correct taxpayer identification number (generally on an IRS Form W-9 provided to the paying agent of the U.S. Holder's broker) and makes other required certifications, or who is otherwise exempt from backup withholding and establishes such exempt status. Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Any amounts withheld under the U.S. backup withholding tax rules may be allowed as a credit against a U.S. Holder's U.S. federal income tax liability, if any, provided the required information is timely furnished to the IRS.

**THE ABOVE SUMMARY IS NOT INTENDED TO CONSTITUTE A COMPLETE ANALYSIS OF ALL TAX CONSIDERATIONS RELEVANT OR APPLICABLE TO U.S. HOLDERS. U.S. HOLDERS SHOULD CONSULT THEIR OWN TAX ADVISORS AS TO THE TAX CONSIDERATIONS APPLICABLE TO THEM IN THEIR OWN PARTICULAR CIRCUMSTANCES.**

**Certain Canadian Federal Income Tax Considerations For U.S. Residents**

The following generally summarizes certain Canadian federal income tax consequences generally applicable under the *Income Tax Act* (Canada) and the regulations enacted thereunder (collectively, the "Canadian Tax Act") and the Canada-United States Tax Convention (1980) (the "Convention") to the holding and disposition of Common Shares.

Comment is restricted to holders of Common Shares each of whom, at all material times for the purposes of the Canadian Tax Act and the Convention, (i) is resident solely in the United States for tax purposes, (ii) acquires, as beneficial owner, pursuant to this prospectus supplement, the Common Shares, (iii) is a "qualifying person" under and entitled to the benefits of the Convention, (iv) holds all Common Shares as capital property, (v) deals at arm's length with and is not affiliated with NioCorp or the Placement Agent, (vi) does not and is not deemed to use or hold any Common Shares in a business carried on in Canada, (vii) is not an insurer that carries on business in Canada and elsewhere, (viii) is not an "authorized foreign bank" (as defined in the Canadian Tax Act), and (ix) has not entered into a "derivative forward agreement" (as defined in the Canadian Tax Act) with respect to the Common Shares (each such holder, a "U.S. Resident Holder").

Certain U.S.-resident entities that are fiscally transparent for United States federal income tax purposes (including limited liability companies) may not in all circumstances be entitled to the benefits of the Convention. Members of or holders of an interest in such an entity that holds Common Shares should consult their own tax advisers regarding the extent, if any, to which the benefits of the Convention will apply to the entity in respect of its Common Shares.

Generally, a U.S. Resident Holder's Common Shares will be considered to be capital property of such holder provided that the U.S. Resident Holder is not a trader or dealer in securities, did not acquire, hold, or dispose of the Common Shares in one or more transactions considered to be an adventure or concern in the nature of trade (i.e., speculation) and does not hold the Common Shares in the course of carrying on a business.

This summary is based on the facts set out in this prospectus supplement, the current provisions of the Canadian Tax Act and the Convention in effect as of the date prior to the date hereof, all specific proposals to amend the Canadian Tax Act and the Convention publicly announced by or on behalf of the Minister of Finance (Canada) prior to the date hereof, and the current published administrative policies and assessing practices of the Canada Revenue Agency (the "CRA"). It is assumed that all such amendments will be enacted as currently proposed, and that there will be no other material change to any applicable law or administrative policy or assessing practice, whether by way of judicial, legislative or governmental decision or action, although no assurance can be given in these respects. This summary is not exhaustive of all possible Canadian federal income tax considerations. Except as otherwise expressly provided, this summary does not take into account any provincial, territorial, or foreign tax considerations, which may differ materially from those set out herein.

***This summary is of a general nature only, is not exhaustive of all possible Canadian federal income tax considerations, and is not intended to be and should not be construed as legal or tax advice to any particular U.S. Resident Holder. The tax consequences of acquiring, holding and disposing of Common Shares will vary according to the U.S. Resident Holder's particular circumstances. U.S. Resident Holders are urged to consult their own tax advisers for advice with respect to their particular circumstances. The discussion below is qualified accordingly.***

**Currency Conversion**

In general, for purposes of the Canadian Tax Act, all amounts relating to the acquisition, holding or disposition of Common Shares must be converted into Canadian dollars based on the relevant exchange rate as determined in accordance with the Canadian Tax Act.

**Disposition of Common Shares**

A U.S. Resident Holder will not be subject to tax under the Canadian Tax Act in respect of any capital gain realized on a disposition or deemed disposition of a Common Share unless the Common Share is "taxable Canadian property" of the U.S. Resident Holder for the purposes of the Canadian Tax Act at the time of disposition and the U.S. Resident Holder is not entitled to an exemption under the Convention. In addition, capital losses arising on a disposition or deemed disposition of a Common Share will not be recognized under the Canadian Tax Act, unless the Common Share constitutes "taxable Canadian property" (as defined in the Canadian Tax Act) at the time of disposition and the U.S. Resident Holder is not entitled to relief under the Convention.

Generally, a U.S. Resident Holder's Common Shares will not constitute "taxable Canadian property" of such holder at a particular time at which the Common Shares are listed on a "designated stock exchange" (which currently includes the Nasdaq) unless, at any time during the 60-month period that ends at the particular time both of the following conditions are concurrently met:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) 25% or more of the issued shares of any class of the capital stock of NioCorp were owned by or belonged to one or any combination
of

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) the U.S. Resident Holder,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) persons with whom the U.S. Resident Holder did not deal at arm's length, and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(C) partnerships in which the U.S. Resident Holder or a person referred to in clause (B) holds a membership interest directly or indirectly
through one or more partnerships, and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) more than 50% of the fair market value of the Common Shares was derived directly or indirectly from, one or any combination of, real
or immovable property situated in Canada, "Canadian resource properties" (as defined in the Canadian Tax Act), "timber
resource properties" (as defined in the Canadian Tax Act), or options in respect of, or interests in any of the foregoing, whether
or not the property exists.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Common Shares may also be deemed to be "taxable Canadian property" in certain circumstances set out in the Canadian Tax Act.

**Dividends on Common Shares**

A U.S. Resident Holder to whom NioCorp pays or credits or is deemed to pay or credit a dividend on such holder's Common Shares will be subject to Canadian withholding tax, and NioCorp will be required to withhold the tax from the dividend and remit it to the CRA for the holder's account. The rate of withholding tax under the Canadian Tax Act is 25% of the gross amount of the dividend, but should generally be reduced under the Convention to 15% (or, if the U.S. Resident Holder is a company which is the beneficial owner of at least 10% of the voting stock of NioCorp, 5%) of the gross amount of the dividend. For this purpose, a company that is a resident of the United States for purposes of the Canadian Tax Act and the Convention and is entitled to the benefits of the Convention shall be considered to own the voting stock of NioCorp owned by an entity that is considered fiscally transparent under the laws of the United States and that is not a resident of Canada, in proportion to such company's ownership interest in that entity.

**Plan of Distribution**

We are offering up to 13,850,000 Common Shares for gross proceeds of up to $45,012,500 before deduction of placement agent fees and offering expenses, in a best-efforts offering.

Pursuant to a placement agency agreement, dated as of July 17, 2025, we have engaged Maxim Group LLC to act as our exclusive placement agent ("Maxim" or the "placement agent") to solicit offers to purchase the securities offered by this prospectus supplement. The placement agent is not purchasing or selling any securities, nor is it required to arrange for the purchase and sale of any specific number or dollar amount of securities, other than to use its "reasonable best efforts" to arrange for the sale of the securities by us. There is no minimum amount of proceeds that is a condition to closing of this offering. Investors shall rely solely on this prospectus supplement in connection with the purchase of our securities in this offering. The placement agent may engage one or more subagents or selected dealers in connection with this offering.

The placement agency agreement provides that the placement agent's obligations are subject to conditions contained in the placement agency agreement.

We will deliver the securities being issued to the investors upon receipt of investor funds for the purchase of the securities offered pursuant to this prospectus supplement. We expect to deliver the securities being offered pursuant to this prospectus on or about July 18, 2025.

**Placement Agent Fees, Commissions and Expenses**

Upon the closing of this offering, we will pay the placement agent a cash transaction fee equal to 7.00% of the aggregate gross cash proceeds to us from the sale of the securities in the offering. Pursuant to the placement agency agreement, we will agree to reimburse the placement agent for certain accountable expenses of the placement agent payable by us, in an aggregate amount not to exceed $100,000. The placement agency agreement, however, will provide that in the event this offering is terminated, the placement agent will only be entitled to the reimbursement of accountable expenses actually incurred in accordance with Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. ("FINRA") Rule 5110(g)(5)(A).

The following table shows the public offering price, placement agent fees, before expenses, to us.

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
|  | &nbsp;&nbsp;**Per Com** **mon Share** | &nbsp;&nbsp;**Tota** **l** |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Public offering price | $&nbsp;&nbsp;3.25 | $&nbsp;&nbsp;45012500.00 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Placement agent fees (7.0%) | $&nbsp;&nbsp;0.2275 | $&nbsp;&nbsp;3150875.00 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Proceeds, before expenses, to us | $&nbsp;&nbsp;3.0225 | $&nbsp;&nbsp;41861625.00 |

---

We estimate that the total expenses of the offering, including registration, filing and listing fees, printing fees and legal and accounting expenses, but excluding the placement agent fees and expenses, will be approximately $576,000, all of which are payable by us. This figure does not include, among other things, the placement agent's fees and expenses (including the legal fees, costs and expenses for the placement agent's legal counsel) up to $100,000.

**Lock-Up Agreements**

Our executive officers and directors, have agreed to a 30-day "lock-up" with respect to the Common Shares and other of our securities such parties beneficially own, including securities that are convertible into Common Shares and securities that are exchangeable or exercisable for Common Shares, subject to certain exceptions. This means that, subject to certain exceptions, for a period of 30 days following the date of the placement agency agreement, such persons may not offer, sell, contract to sell, hypothecate, pledge or otherwise dispose of (or enter into any transaction which is designed to, or might reasonably be expected to, result in the disposition (whether by actual disposition or effective economic disposition due to cash settlement or otherwise) by such persons or any of their affiliates), directly or indirectly, or establish or increase a put equivalent position or liquidate or decrease a call equivalent position within the meaning of Section 16 of the Exchange Act, with respect to, any such securities without the prior written consent of Maxim.

In addition, subject to certain exceptions, we have agreed, (i) for a period of 60 days following the date of the closing of the offering, not to, and to cause our subsidiaries not to, issue, enter into any agreement to issue or announce the issuance or proposed issuance of any Common Shares or any securities that are convertible into, or exchangeable or exercisable for, Common Shares and (ii) for a period of 60 days following the date of the closing of the offering, issue any securities that are subject to a price reset based on the trading prices of our Common Shares or upon a specified or contingent event in the future, or enter into any agreement to issue securities at a future determined price. The foregoing restrictions may be waived by Maxim at its discretion, although Maxim has no present intention to waive or shorten any of such restrictive periods.

**Other Compensation**

We have agreed that, until November 14, 2025, we will grant Maxim a right of first refusal to act as sole managing underwriter and sole book runner, sole placement agent or sole sales agent for any and all future public or private equity, equity-linked, convertible or debt offerings of ours or any successor to or any subsidiary of ours during such period, subject to certain exceptions.

In the event that any investor whom Maxim had contacted or introduced to us during the term of its engagement provides any capital to us, in a public or private offering or other financing or capital-raising transaction of any kind, before December 31, 2025, subject to certain conditions and exceptions, we will pay Maxim the cash compensation provided above, calculated in the same manner.

**Indemnification**

We have agreed to indemnify the placement agent against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, and to contribute to payments that the placement agent may be required to make for these liabilities.

**Regulation M**

The placement agent may be deemed to be an underwriter within the meaning of Section 2(a)(11) of the Securities Act, and any commissions received by it and any profit realized on the resale of the securities sold by it while acting as principal might be deemed to be underwriting discounts or commissions under the Securities Act. As an underwriter, the placement agent would be required to comply with the requirements of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, including, without limitation, Rule 10b-5 and Regulation M under the Exchange Act. These rules and regulations may limit the timing of purchases and sales of our securities by the placement agent acting as principal. Under these rules and regulations, the placement agent (i) may not engage in any stabilization activity in connection with our securities and (ii) may not bid for or purchase any of our securities or attempt to induce any person to purchase any of our securities, other than as permitted under the Exchange Act, until it has completed its participation in the distribution.

**Determination of Offering Price**

The actual offering price of the securities we are offering was negotiated between us, the placement agent and the investors in the offering based on the trading of our Common Shares prior to the offering, among other things. Other factors considered in determining the public offering price of the securities we are offering include our history and prospects, the stage of development of our business, our business plans for the future and the extent to which they have been implemented, an assessment of our management, the general conditions of the securities markets at the time of the offering and such other factors as were deemed relevant.

**Electronic Distribution**

In connection with the offering, the placement agent or selected dealers may distribute prospectuses electronically.

**Summary**

*This summary highlights selected information appearing in this prospectus. Because it is a summary, it may not contain all of the information that may be important to you. To understand this offering fully, you should read this entire prospectus carefully, including the information set forth in the section entitled "Risk Factors" contained in this prospectus and under similar headings in the other documents that are incorporated by reference into this prospectus. You should also carefully read the information incorporated by reference into this prospectus, including our consolidated financial statements and related notes and the exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part, before making an investment decision. This prospectus includes forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. See "Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements."*

**NioCorp Developments Ltd.**

NioCorp is developing the Elk Creek Project (as defined below) located in southeast Nebraska. The "Elk Creek Project" is a development-stage property that has disclosed niobium, scandium, and titanium reserves and resources and disclosed rare earth mineral resources. The Company is continuing technical and economic studies around the rare earths contained in the Elk Creek Project's mineral resource in order to determine whether extraction of rare earth elements can be reasonably justified and economically viable after taking into account all relevant factors. Niobium is used to produce various superalloys that are extensively used in high performance aircraft and jet turbines. It also is used in high-strength, low-alloy steel, a stronger steel used in automobiles, bridges, structural systems, buildings, pipelines, and other applications that generally increases strength and/or reduces weight, which can result in environmental benefits, including reduced fuel consumption and material usage and fewer air emissions. Scandium can be combined with aluminum to make high-performance alloys with increased strength and improved corrosion resistance. Scandium also is a critical component of advanced solid oxide fuel cells, an environmentally preferred technology for high-reliability, distributed electricity generation. Titanium is a component of various superalloys and other applications that are used for aerospace applications, weapons systems, protective armor, medical implants, and many others. It also is used in pigments for paper, paint, and plastics. Rare earths are critical to electrification and decarbonization initiatives and can be used to manufacture the strongest permanent magnets commercially available.

Our primary business strategy is to advance our Elk Creek Project to commercial production. We are focused on obtaining additional funds to carry out our near-term planned work programs associated with securing the project financing necessary to complete mine development and construction of the Elk Creek Project.

**Corporate Information**

Our Common Shares trade on The Nasdaq Global Market under the symbol "NB." Our principal executive office is located at 7000 South Yosemite Street, Suite 115, Centennial, CO 80112, and our telephone number is (720) 334-7066. Our website address is *www.niocorp.com*. This website address is not intended to be an active link, and information on, or accessible through, our website is not incorporated by reference into this prospectus and you should not consider any information on, or that can be accessed from, our website as part of this prospectus or any accompanying prospectus supplement.

 **Risk Factors**

Investing in our securities involves a high degree of risk. Prior to making a decision about investing in our securities, you should carefully consider the specific risk factors discussed under the heading "Risk Factors" in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and in our most recent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, which are or will be incorporated herein by reference and may be amended, supplemented or superseded from time to time by other reports we file with the SEC in the future. You should also refer to the other information in this prospectus and the applicable prospectus supplement, including our financial statements and the related notes incorporated by reference in this prospectus. The risks and uncertainties we have described are not the only risks we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also affect our operations. If any of these risks actually occurs, our business, results of operations and financial condition could suffer and could result in a complete loss of your investment.

**Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements**

This prospectus and the other documents incorporated by reference into this prospectus contain or may contain "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act, and "forward-looking information" within the meaning of applicable Canadian securities legislation (collectively, "forward-looking statements"). Such forward-looking statements concern our anticipated results and developments in the operations of the Company in future periods, planned exploration activities, the adequacy of the Company's financial resources, and other events or conditions that may occur in the future.

Forward-looking statements have been based upon our current business and operating plans, as approved by the Company's Board of Directors, and may include statements regarding the anticipated benefits of the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement (the "Business Combination Agreement"), dated September 25, 2022, between NioCorp, GXII, Big Red Merger Sub Ltd, a Delaware corporation and a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (the "Transactions"), including NioCorp's ability to access the full amount of the expected net proceeds of the Standby Equity Purchase Agreement, dated January 26, 2023 (as amended, the "Yorkville Equity Facility Financing Agreement"), between NioCorp and YA II PN, Ltd. ("YA"), a fund managed by Yorkville Advisors Global, LP, through April 1, 2026; NioCorp's ability to receive a final commitment of financing from the Export-Import Bank of the United States ("EXIM"); anticipated benefits of the listing of the Common Shares on Nasdaq; the financial and business performance of NioCorp; NioCorp's anticipated results and developments in the operations of NioCorp in future periods; NioCorp's planned exploration and development activities; the adequacy of NioCorp's financial resources; NioCorp's ability to secure sufficient project financing to complete construction and commence operation of the Elk Creek Project; NioCorp's expectation and ability to produce niobium, scandium, and titanium at the Elk Creek Project; NioCorp's plans to produce and supply specific products and market demand for those products; the Elk Creek Project's ability to produce multiple critical metals; NioCorp's expectation that the process improvements resulting from previously completed recovery process improvement testing could lead to greater efficiencies and cost savings in the Elk Creek Project; the Elk Creek Project's projected ore production and mining operations over its expected mine life; the completion and content of an updated technical report for the Elk Creek Project; the completion of technical and economic analyses on the potential addition of magnetic rare earth oxides to NioCorp's planned product suite; anticipated benefits of the electrification of access to the Elk Creek Project mine site; the exercise of options to purchase additional land parcels; the execution of contracts with engineering, procurement and construction companies; the advancement of offtake discussions with potential customers; NioCorp's ongoing evaluation of the impact of inflation, supply chain issues and geopolitical unrest on the Elk Creek Project's economic model; and the creation of full time and contract construction jobs over the construction period of the Elk Creek Project.

Forward-looking statements are frequently, but not always, identified by words such as "expects," "anticipates," "believes," "intends," "estimates," "potential," "possible," and similar expressions, or statements that events, conditions, or results "will," "may," "could," or "should" (or the negative and grammatical variations of any of these terms) occur or be achieved. Any statements that express or involve discussions with respect to predictions, expectations, beliefs, plans, projections, objectives, assumptions, or future events or performance (often, but not always, using words or phrases such as "expects" or "does not expect," "is expected," "anticipates" or "does not anticipate," "plans," "estimates," or "intends," or stating that certain actions, events, or results "may," "could," "would," "might," or "will" be taken, occur or be achieved) are not statements of historical fact and may be forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements reflect the Company's current views with respect to future events and are subject to certain known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and assumptions. Many factors could cause actual results, performance, or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance, or achievements that may be expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements, including, among others, risks related to the following: NioCorp's ability to recognize the anticipated benefits of the Transactions, including NioCorp's ability to access the full amount of the expected net proceeds under the Yorkville Equity Facility Financing Agreement through April 1, 2026; unexpected costs related to the Transactions; the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against NioCorp following closing of the Transactions; NioCorp's ability to receive a final commitment of financing from EXIM on the anticipated timeline, on acceptable terms, or at all; NioCorp's ability to continue to meet Nasdaq listing standards; NioCorp's ability to operate as a going concern; risks relating to the Common Shares, including price volatility, lack of dividend payments and dilution or the perception of the likelihood any of the foregoing; NioCorp's requirement of significant additional capital; the extent to which NioCorp's level of indebtedness and/or the terms contained in agreements governing NioCorp's indebtedness or the Yorkville Equity Facility Financing Agreement may impair NioCorp's ability to obtain additional financing, on acceptable terms, or at all; covenants contained in agreements with NioCorp's secured creditors that may affect its assets; NioCorp's limited operating history; NioCorp's history of losses; the material weaknesses in NioCorp's internal control over financial reporting, NioCorp's efforts to remediate such material weaknesses and the timing of remediation; the possibility that NioCorp may qualify as a passive foreign investment company ("PFIC") under the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"); the potential that the Transactions could result in NioCorp becoming subject to materially adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences as a result of the application of Section 7874 and related sections of the Code; cost increases for NioCorp's exploration and, if warranted, development projects; a disruption in, or failure of, NioCorp's information technology systems, including those related to cybersecurity; equipment and supply shortages; variations in the market demand for, and prices of, niobium, scandium, titanium and rare earth products; current and future offtake agreements, joint ventures, and partnerships; NioCorp's ability to attract qualified management; the effects of global health crises on NioCorp's business plans, financial condition and liquidity; estimates of mineral resources and reserves; mineral exploration and production activities; feasibility study results; the results of metallurgical testing; the results of technological research; changes in demand for and price of commodities (such as fuel and electricity) and currencies; competition in the mining industry; changes or disruptions in the securities markets; legislative, political or economic developments, including changes in federal and/or state laws that may significantly affect the mining industry; the impacts of climate change, as well as actions taken or required by governments related to strengthening resilience in the face of potential impacts from climate change; the need to obtain permits and comply with laws and regulations and other regulatory requirements; the timing and reliability of sampling and assay data; the possibility that actual results of work may differ from projections/expectations or may not realize the perceived potential of NioCorp's projects; risks of accidents, equipment breakdowns, and labor disputes or other unanticipated difficulties or interruptions; the possibility of cost overruns or unanticipated expenses in development programs; operating or technical difficulties in connection with exploration, mining, or development activities; the management of the water balance at the Elk Creek Project site; land reclamation requirements related to the Elk Creek Project; the speculative nature of mineral exploration and development, including the risks of diminishing quantities of grades of reserves and resources; claims on the title to NioCorp's properties; potential future litigation; and NioCorp's lack of insurance covering all of NioCorp's operations.

Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those described herein. This list is not exhaustive of the factors that may affect any of the Company's forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are statements about the future and are inherently uncertain, and actual achievements of the Company or other future events or conditions may differ materially from those reflected in the forward-looking statements due to a variety of risks, uncertainties, and other factors, including without limitation those discussed under Part I, Item 1A. "Risk Factors" contained in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, and Part II, Item 1A. "Risk Factors" contained in our subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, as well as any amendments thereto, which are incorporated by reference into this prospectus and the applicable prospectus supplement in their entirety, together with other information in this prospectus and the applicable prospectus supplement and the documents incorporated by reference herein and therein. See the sections of this prospectus entitled "Where You Can Find More Information" and "Information Incorporated by Reference."

The Company's forward-looking statements contained in this prospectus are based on the beliefs, expectations, and opinions of management as of the date of this prospectus. The Company does not assume any obligation to update forward-looking statements if circumstances or management's beliefs, expectations, or opinions should change, except as required by law. For the reasons set forth above, investors should not attribute undue certainty to, or place undue reliance on, forward-looking statements.

 **Use of Proceeds**

Unless the applicable prospectus supplement states otherwise, we expect to use the net proceeds of the sale of the securities offered by this prospectus for working capital and general corporate purposes, including to advance our efforts to launch construction of the Elk Creek Project and move it to commercial operation.

As of the date of this prospectus, we have not identified as probable any specific material proposed uses of these proceeds. If, as of the date of any prospectus supplement, we have identified any such uses, we will describe them in the prospectus supplement. Pending any such uses, we may temporarily invest the net proceeds.

***Certain Canadian Federal Income Tax Considerations for U.S. Residents***

The following generally summarizes certain Canadian federal income tax consequences generally applicable under the *Income Tax Act* (Canada) and the regulations enacted thereunder (collectively, the "Canadian Tax Act") and the *Canada-United States Tax Convention (1980)* (the "Convention") to the holding and disposition of Common Shares.

Comment is restricted to holders of Common Shares each of whom, at all material times for the purposes of the Canadian Tax Act and the Convention, (i) is resident solely in the United States for tax purposes, (ii) is a "qualifying person" under and entitled to the benefits of the Convention, (iii) holds all Common Shares as capital property, (iv) holds no Common Shares that are "taxable Canadian property" (as defined in the Canadian Tax Act) of the holder, (v) deals at arm's length with and is not affiliated with the Company, (vi) does not and is not deemed to use or hold any Common Shares in a business carried on in Canada, (vii) is not an insurer that carries on business in Canada and elsewhere, (viii) is not an "authorized foreign bank" (as defined in the Canadian Tax Act), and (ix) has not entered into a "derivative forward agreement" (as defined in the Canadian Tax Act) with respect to the Common Shares (each such holder, a "U.S. Resident Holder").

Certain U.S.-resident entities that are fiscally transparent for United States federal income tax purposes (including limited liability companies) may not in all circumstances be entitled to the benefits of the Convention. Members of or holders of an interest in such an entity that holds Common Shares should consult their own tax advisers regarding the extent, if any, to which the benefits of the Convention will apply to the entity in respect of its Common Shares.

Generally, a U.S. Resident Holder's Common Shares will be considered to be capital property of such holder provided that the U.S. Resident Holder is not a trader or dealer in securities, did not acquire, hold, or dispose of the Common Shares in one or more transactions considered to be an adventure or concern in the nature of trade (*i.e.*, speculation), and does not hold the Common Shares in the course of carrying on a business.

This summary is based on the current provisions of the Canadian Tax Act and the Convention in effect as of the date prior to the date hereof, all specific proposals to amend the Canadian Tax Act and Convention publicly announced by or on behalf of the Minister of Finance (Canada) prior to the date hereof, and the current published administrative policies and assessing practices of the Canada Revenue Agency (the "CRA"). It is assumed that all such amendments will be enacted as currently proposed, and that there will be no other material change to any applicable law or administrative policy or assessing practice, whether by way of judicial, legislative or governmental decision or action, although no assurance can be given in these respects. This summary is not exhaustive of all possible Canadian federal income tax considerations. Except as otherwise expressly provided, this summary does not take into account any provincial, territorial, or foreign tax considerations, which may differ materially from those set out herein.

***This summary is of a general nature only, is not exhaustive of all possible Canadian federal income tax considerations, and is not intended to be and should not be construed as legal or tax advice to any particular U.S. Resident Holder. U.S. Resident Holders are urged to consult their own tax advisers for advice with respect to their particular circumstances. The discussion below is qualified accordingly.***

Generally, a U.S. Resident Holder's Common Shares will not constitute "taxable Canadian property" of such holder at a particular time at which the Common Shares are listed on a "designated stock exchange" (which currently includes Nasdaq) unless both of the following conditions are concurrently met:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) at any time during the 60-month period that ends at the particular time, 25% or more of the issued shares of any class of the capital
stock of the Company were owned by or belonged to one or any combination of

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) the U.S. Resident Holder,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) persons with whom the U.S. Resident Holder did not deal at arm's length, and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(C) partnerships in which the U.S. Resident Holder or a person referred to in clause (B) holds a membership interest directly or indirectly
through one or more partnerships, and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) at any time during the 60-month period that ends at the particular time, more than 50% of the fair market value of the Common Shares
was derived directly or indirectly from, one or any combination of, real or immovable property situated in Canada, "Canadian resource
properties" (as defined in the Canadian Tax Act), "timber resource properties" (as defined in the Canadian Tax Act),
or options in respect of, or interests in any of the foregoing, whether or not the property exists.

Common Shares may also be deemed to be "taxable Canadian property" in certain circumstances set out in the Canadian Tax Act.

**A U.S. Resident Holder who disposes or is deemed to dispose of one or more Common Shares generally should not thereby incur any liability for Canadian federal income tax in respect of any capital gain arising as a consequence of the disposition.**

**A U.S. Resident Holder to whom the Company pays or credits or is deemed to pay or credit a dividend on such holder's Common Shares will be subject to Canadian withholding tax, and the Company will be required to withhold the tax from the dividend and remit it to the CRA for the holder's account. The rate of withholding tax under the Canadian Tax Act is 25% of the gross amount of the dividend, but should generally be reduced under the Convention to 15% (or, if the U.S. Resident Holder is a company which is the beneficial owner of at least 10% of the voting stock of the Company, 5%) of the gross amount of the dividend. For this purpose, a company that is a resident of the United States for purposes of the Canadian Tax Act and the Convention and is entitled to the benefits of the Convention shall be considered to own the voting stock of the Company owned by an entity that is considered fiscally transparent under the laws of the United States and that is not a resident of Canada, in proportion to such company's ownership interest in that entity.**

**Competition Act**

Limitations on the ability to acquire and hold Common Shares may be imposed by the Competition Act (Canada). This legislation permits the Commissioner of Competition of Canada (the "Commissioner") to review any acquisition of a significant interest in the Company. This legislation grants the Commissioner jurisdiction to challenge such an acquisition before the Canadian Competition Tribunal if the Commissioner believes that it would, or would be likely to, result in a substantial lessening or prevention of competition in any market in Canada.

**Investment Canada Act**

The Investment Canada Act subjects an acquisition of control of a company by a non-Canadian to government review if the enterprise value of such company, as calculated pursuant to the legislation, exceeds a threshold amount. A reviewable acquisition may not proceed unless the relevant minister is satisfied that the investment is likely to result in a net benefit to Canada. Under the national-security-review regime in the Investment Canada Act, review on a discretionary basis may also be undertaken by the federal government in respect of a broad range of investments by a non-Canadian. No financial threshold applies to a national security review. The relevant test is whether such investment by a non-Canadian could be "injurious to national security."

**NioCorp Assumed Warrants**

In connection with the closing of the Transactions (the "Closing"), pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, the Company assumed the Warrant Agreement, dated as of March 17, 2021 (the "GXII Warrant Agreement"), by and between GXII and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company ("CST"), as warrant agent, and each share purchase warrant of GXII thereunder (the "GXII Warrants") that was issued and outstanding immediately prior to March 17, 2023 was converted into one Warrant (the "NioCorp Assumed Warrants") pursuant to the assignment, assumption and amendment agreement to the GXII Warrant Agreement, dated March 17, 2023 (the GXII Warrant Agreement, as so amended, the "NioCorp Assumed Warrant Agreement"), among NioCorp, GXII, CST, as existing warrant agent, and Computershare Inc. and its affiliate Computershare Trust Company, N.A., together as successor warrant agent (the "NioCorp Assumed Warrant Agent"). In connection with the Closing, NioCorp issued (a) 9,999,959 public NioCorp Assumed Warrants in respect of the GXII Warrants that were publicly traded prior to the Closing and (b) 5,666,667 NioCorp Assumed Warrants to GX Sponsor II LLC (the "Sponsor") in respect of the GXII Warrants that it held prior to the Closing, which NioCorp Assumed Warrants were subsequently distributed by the Sponsor to its members in connection with the Closing.

Both the public NioCorp Assumed Warrants and the NioCorp Assumed Warrants issued to the Sponsor are subject to the terms of the NioCorp Assumed Warrant Agreement and are identical, with certain exceptions applicable to the NioCorp Assumed Warrants issued to the Sponsor for so long as such NioCorp Assumed Warrants are held by the Sponsor, its members, or their respective affiliates and other permitted transferees. In accordance with the NioCorp Assumed Warrant Agreement, any NioCorp Assumed Warrants issued to the Sponsor that are held by someone other than the Sponsor, its members, or their respective affiliates and other permitted transferees, are treated as public NioCorp Assumed Warrants.

Each NioCorp Assumed Warrant is exercisable on and after April 16, 2023 until its expiration for 1.11829212 Common Shares at a price of $11.50 per 1.11829212 Common Shares (subject to adjustments for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like). Under the terms of NioCorp Assumed Warrant Agreement, for so long as the NioCorp Assumed Warrants issued to the Sponsor are held by the Sponsor, its members, or their respective affiliates and other permitted transferees, such holders have the right to elect to exercise those NioCorp Assumed Warrants on a cashless basis. For such NioCorp Assumed Warrants exercised on a cashless basis after the Closing, the holder will be entitled to pay the exercise price for those NioCorp Assumed Warrants by surrendering all or portion of the cash and/or Common Shares (valued at their fair market value) into which those NioCorp Assumed Warrants are exercisable as shall be elected by the holder. For this purpose, Common Shares so surrendered will be deemed to have a "fair market value" equal to the average reported last sale price of the Common Shares for the 10 trading days ending on the third trading day prior to the date of exercise of the applicable NioCorp Assumed Warrants.

The NioCorp Assumed Warrants will expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on March 17, 2028 or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.

The Company will not be obligated to deliver any Common Shares pursuant to the exercise of a NioCorp Assumed Warrant and will have no obligation to settle such exercise unless a registration statement under the Securities Act with respect to the Common Shares underlying the NioCorp Assumed Warrants is then effective and a prospectus relating thereto is current, subject to the Company satisfying its obligations described below with respect to registration. No NioCorp Assumed Warrant will be exercisable and the Company will not be obligated to issue Common Shares upon exercise of a NioCorp Assumed Warrant unless Common Shares issuable upon such exercise have been registered, qualified or deemed to be exempt under the securities laws of the state of residence of the registered holder of the NioCorp Assumed Warrants. In the event that the conditions in the two immediately preceding sentences are not satisfied with respect to a NioCorp Assumed Warrant, the holder of such NioCorp Assumed Warrant will not be entitled to exercise such NioCorp Assumed Warrant and such NioCorp Assumed Warrant may have no value and expire worthless. In no event will the Company be required to net cash settle any NioCorp Assumed Warrant.

The NioCorp Assumed Warrants, and the underlying Common Shares issuable upon the exercise thereof, were registered under the Securities Act pursuant to the Company's registration statement on Form S-4, originally filed on November 7, 2022, as subsequently amended, which was declared effective by the SEC on February 8, 2023. The ongoing registered offering of the Common Shares underlying the NioCorp Assumed Warrants is being conducted pursuant to the Company's registration statement on Form S-3, originally filed on April 14, 2023, as subsequently post-effectively amended to convert such registration statement to Form S-1, which was declared effective on October 30, 2023.

The Company will have the right to call the public NioCorp Assumed Warrants for redemption at any time following the Closing Date:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· in whole and not in part;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· at a price of $0.01 per NioCorp Assumed Warrant;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· upon not less than 30 days' prior written notice of redemption (the "30-day redemption period")
to each public NioCorp Assumed Warrant holder;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· if, and only if, the reported last sale price of the Common Shares equals or exceeds approximately $16.10
per share (subject to certain adjustments) for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period commencing once the NioCorp Assumed
Warrants become exercisable and ending three business days before the Company sends the notice of redemption to the public NioCorp Assumed
Warrant holders; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· if there is an effective registration statement covering the Common Shares issuable upon exercise of
the NioCorp Assumed Warrants, and a current prospectus relating thereto, available throughout the 30-day redemption period.

The NioCorp Assumed Warrants issued to the Sponsor are not redeemable by the Company for so long as such NioCorp Assumed Warrants are held by the Sponsor, its members, or their respective affiliates or other permitted transferees. In addition, the Company may not exercise its redemption right if the issuance of Common Shares upon exercise of the NioCorp Assumed Warrants is not exempt from registration or qualification under applicable state blue sky laws or the Company is unable to effect such registration or qualification.

If the Company calls the public NioCorp Assumed Warrants for redemption as described above, the Company will have the option to require any holder that wishes to exercise its public NioCorp Assumed Warrant to do so on a "cashless basis." In determining whether to require all holders to exercise their public NioCorp Assumed Warrants on a "cashless basis," the Company will consider, among other factors, its cash position, the number of NioCorp Assumed Warrants that are outstanding and the dilutive effect on the Company's shareholders of issuing the maximum number of Common Shares issuable upon the exercise of the NioCorp Assumed Warrants. If the Company takes advantage of this option, all holders of public NioCorp Assumed Warrants would pay the exercise price by surrendering their NioCorp Assumed Warrants for that number of Common Shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the product of the number of Common Shares underlying the public NioCorp Assumed Warrants, multiplied by the difference between the exercise price of the NioCorp Assumed Warrants and the "fair market value" (defined below) by (y) the fair market value. The "fair market value" shall mean the average reported last sale price of the Common Shares for the 10 trading days ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which the notice of redemption is sent to the holders of public NioCorp Assumed Warrants. If the Company takes advantage of this option, the notice of redemption will contain the information necessary to calculate the number of Common Shares to be received upon exercise of the NioCorp Assumed Warrants, including the "fair market value" in such case. Requiring a cashless exercise in this manner will reduce the number of Common Shares to be issued and thereby lessen the dilutive effect of a redemption of the public NioCorp Assumed Warrants. If the Company calls the public NioCorp Assumed Warrants for redemption and does not take advantage of this option, the Sponsor, its members, and their respective affiliates and other permitted transferees would still be entitled to exercise their NioCorp Assumed Warrants for cash or on a cashless basis using the same formula described above that other NioCorp Assumed Warrant holders would have been required to use had all NioCorp Assumed Warrant holders been required to exercise their NioCorp Assumed Warrants on a cashless basis, as described in more detail below.

A holder of a NioCorp Assumed Warrant may notify the Company in writing in the event it elects to be subject to a requirement that such holder will not have the right to exercise such NioCorp Assumed Warrant, to the extent that after giving effect to such exercise, such holder (together with such holder's affiliates), to the NioCorp Assumed Warrant Agent's actual knowledge, would beneficially own in excess of 4.9% or 9.8% (or such other amount as a holder may specify) of the Common Shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to such exercise.

The NioCorp Assumed Warrants have certain anti-dilution and adjustments rights upon certain events.

The NioCorp Assumed Warrants may be exercised upon surrender of the certificate representing such NioCorp Assumed Warrants on or prior to the expiration date at the offices of the NioCorp Assumed Warrant Agent, with the exercise form on the reverse side of such certificate completed and executed as indicated, accompanied by full payment of the exercise price (or on a cashless basis, if applicable), by certified or official bank check payable to the order of the NioCorp Assumed Warrant Agent or by wire transfer, for the number of NioCorp Assumed Warrants being exercised. The NioCorp Assumed Warrant holders will not have the rights or privileges of holders of Common Shares or any attendant voting rights until they exercise their NioCorp Assumed Warrants and receive Common Shares. After the issuance of Common Shares upon exercise of the NioCorp Assumed Warrants, each holder will be entitled to one (1) vote for each Common Share held of record on all matters to be voted on by NioCorp shareholders.

If, upon exercise of the NioCorp Assumed Warrants, a holder would be entitled to receive a fractional interest in a share, the Company will, upon exercise, round down to the nearest whole number of Common Shares to be issued to the NioCorp Assumed Warrant holder.

The NioCorp Assumed Warrants were issued in registered form under the NioCorp Assumed Warrant Agreement. The NioCorp Assumed Warrant Agreement may be amended by the parties thereto without the consent of any registered holder (i) for the purpose of curing any ambiguity, or curing, correcting or supplementing any mistake, or adding or changing any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under NioCorp Assumed Warrant Agreement as the parties may deem necessary or desirable and that the parties deem shall not adversely affect the interest of the registered holders of the NioCorp Assumed Warrants, and (ii) to provide for the delivery of such kind and amount of Common Shares or other securities or property (including cash) receivable upon a reclassification, reorganization, merger or consolidation, or upon a dissolution following any such sale or transfer, that the holder of NioCorp Assumed Warrants would have received if such holder had exercised his, her or its NioCorp Assumed Warrants immediately prior to such event. All other modifications or amendments, including any amendment to increase the warrant price or shorten the exercise period, shall require the vote or written consent of the registered holders of a majority of the then outstanding public NioCorp Assumed Warrants. Any amendment solely to the NioCorp Assumed Warrants issued to the Sponsor and that are held by the Sponsor, its members, or their respective affiliates or other permitted transferees, shall require the vote or written consent of a majority of the holders of the then outstanding NioCorp Assumed Warrants issued to the Sponsor.

**Convertible Debentures**

On January 26, 2023, NioCorp entered into the Securities Purchase Agreement (the "Yorkville Convertible Debt Financing Agreement") with YA. Pursuant to the Yorkville Convertible Debt Financing Agreement, YA advanced a total amount of $15,360,000 to NioCorp in consideration of the issuance by NioCorp to YA of $16,000,000 aggregate principal amount of convertible debentures (the "Convertible Debentures") at the time of Closing (the "Debenture Closing"). As of June 12, 2024, there was $550,000 aggregate principal amount of the Convertible Debentures outstanding.

Each Convertible Debenture issued under the Yorkville Convertible Debt Financing Agreement is an unsecured obligation of NioCorp, matures on September 17, 2024, which maturity may be extended for one six-month period in certain circumstances at the option of NioCorp, and incurs a simple interest rate obligation of 5.0% per annum (which will increase to 15.0% per annum upon the occurrence of an event of default). The outstanding principal amount of, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on, and premium, if any, on the Convertible Debentures must be paid by NioCorp in cash when the same becomes due and payable under the terms of the Convertible Debentures at their stated maturity, upon their redemption or otherwise.

Subject to certain limitations contained within the Yorkville Convertible Debt Financing Agreement and the Convertible Debentures, including those as described below, holders of the Convertible Debentures will be entitled to convert the principal amount of, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on each Convertible Debenture, in whole or in part, from time to time over their term, into a number of Common Shares equal to the quotient of the principal amount and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, being converted divided by the Conversion Price. The "Conversion Price" means, as of any Conversion Date (as defined below) or other date of determination, the greater of (i) 90% of the average of the daily U.S. dollar volume-weighted average price of the Common Shares on the principal U.S. market for the Common Shares as reported by Bloomberg Financial Markets during the five consecutive trading days immediately preceding the date on which the holder exercises its conversion right in accordance with the requirements of the Yorkville Convertible Debt Financing Agreement (the "Conversion Date") or other date of determination, but not lower than the Floor Price (as defined below), and (ii) the five-day volume-weighted average price of the Common Shares on the TSX (or on the principal U.S. market if the majority of the trading volume and value of the Common Shares occurred on Nasdaq during the relevant period) for the five consecutive trading days immediately prior to the Conversion Date or other date of determination less the maximum applicable discount allowed by the TSX. The "Floor Price" means a price of $2.1435 per share, which is equal to the lesser of (a) 30% of the average of the daily volume-weighted average price of the Common Shares on the principal U.S. market for the Common Shares as reported by Bloomberg Financial Markets during the five consecutive trading days immediately preceding the Debenture Closing and (b) 30% of the average of the volume-weighted average price of the Common Shares on the principal U.S. market for the Common Shares as reported by Bloomberg Financial Markets during the five consecutive trading days immediately following the Debenture Closing, subject to certain adjustments to give effect to any stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, recapitalization or similar event.

The terms of the Convertible Debentures restrict the number of Convertible Debentures that may be converted during each calendar month by YA at a Conversion Price below a fixed price equal to approximately $8.9422 (i.e., the quotient of $10.00 divided by 1.11829212 (being the number of Common Shares that were exchanged for each share of GXII at the Closing, after giving effect to the reverse stock split at a ratio of 10-for-1 effectuated by each of NioCorp and ECRC on the date of Closing (the "Reverse Stock Split"))), subject to adjustment to give effect to any stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, recapitalization or similar event. The Convertible Debentures are subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments.

The terms of the Convertible Debentures restrict the conversion of Convertible Debentures by YA if such a conversion would cause YA to exceed certain beneficial ownership thresholds in NioCorp or such a conversion would cause the aggregate number of Common Shares issued pursuant to the Yorkville Convertible Debt Financing Agreement to exceed the thresholds for issuance of Common Shares under the rules of Nasdaq, unless prior shareholder approval is obtained.

**Financing Warrants**

In conjunction with the Debenture Closing, NioCorp issued to YA pursuant to the Yorkville Convertible Debt Financing Agreement financing warrants (the "Financing Warrants") to purchase 1,789,267 Common Shares, which is equal to the quotient of the principal amount of Convertible Debentures issued in such Debenture Closing divided by the "Exercise Price," which is equal to approximately $8.9422 (i.e., the quotient of $10.00 divided by 1.11829212 (being the number of Common Shares that were exchanged for each share of GXII at the Closing, after giving effect to the reverse stock split at a ratio of 10-for-1 effectuated by each of NioCorp and ECRC on the Closing Date)), in each case, subject to adjustment to give effect to any stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, recapitalization or similar event.

The Financing Warrants are exercisable, in whole or in part, but not in increments of less than $50,000 aggregate Exercise Price (unless the remaining aggregate Exercise Price is less than $50,000), beginning on May 4, 2023 and may be exercised at any time prior to their expiration. Holders of the Financing Warrants may exercise their Financing Warrants, at their election, by paying the Exercise Price in cash or, if at any time there is no effective registration statement registering, or no current prospectus available for, the resale of the underlying Common Shares, on a cashless exercise basis. On each of the first 12 monthly anniversaries of September 17, 2023, 1/12th of the Financing Warrants will expire.

The Financing Warrants have customary anti-dilution adjustments to be determined in accordance with the requirements of the applicable stock exchanges.

The terms of the Financing Warrants restrict the exercise of Financing Warrants by YA if such an exercise would cause YA to exceed certain beneficial ownership thresholds in NioCorp or such an exercise would cause the aggregate number of Common Shares issued pursuant to the Yorkville Convertible Debt Financing Agreement to exceed the thresholds for issuance of Common Shares under the rules of Nasdaq, unless prior shareholder approval is obtained.

**Notes**

On April 12, 2024, the Company issued and sold to the YA and Lind Global Fund II LP ("Lind"), in a private placement (the "April 2024 Private Placement"), $8.0 million aggregate principal amount of unsecured notes (the "Notes"), pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement, dated April 11, 2024 (the "Purchase Agreement"), between the Company and each of YA and Lind, as purchasers (in such capacity, the "Purchasers"). Pursuant to the terms of the Notes, subject to certain exceptions as described below, on the first day of each calendar month, beginning on June 1, 2024 (excluding August 2024) (a "Payment Date"), the Company will be required to repay a portion of the outstanding balance of all of the Notes, on a pro-rata basis, in an amount equal to the sum of (i) $1.4 million of principal (or the outstanding principal if less than such amount) in the aggregate among all of the outstanding Notes, plus (ii) 8.0% of the principal amount being paid (the "Payment Premium"), and (iii) accrued and unpaid interest, if any, as of the Payment Date. The Company is required to make payments on each Payment Date until the entire outstanding principal is repaid, but will not have an obligation to make a payment on a Payment Date if the Equity Conditions (as defined below) are satisfied.

Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Purchasers advanced an aggregate of $6.96 million to NioCorp in consideration of the issuance by NioCorp to the Purchasers of $8.0 million aggregate principal amount of Notes and Warrants (the "April 2024 Warrants") to purchase up to 615,385 Common Shares (the "April 2024 Warrant Shares"). Each April 2024 Warrant is exercisable for one Common Share for cash or, if at any time there is no effective registration statement registering, or no current prospectus available for, the resale of the underlying Common Shares, on a cashless basis at the option of the holder, at a price per Common Share of $3.25 (the "April 2024 Exercise Price"), subject to adjustment for recapitalizations, stock splits, reverse stock splits or similar events, and expires April 12, 2027.

Subject to certain limitations, including those as described below, contained within the Notes, holders of the Notes will be entitled to convert the principal amount of, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, and any Payment Premium that has become due and payable on each Note, from time to time over their term, into a number of Common Shares equal to the quotient of the amount being converted divided by the fixed conversion price of $2.75 per Common Share (the "Fixed Conversion Price") up to a maximum of 3,141,817 Common Shares (together with the April 2024 Warrant Shares, the "Underlying Shares"). The terms of the Notes restrict the conversion of the Notes by a holder if such a conversion or exercise would cause such holder to exceed certain beneficial ownership thresholds in NioCorp.

The Notes are the unsecured obligations of NioCorp and will mature on December 31, 2024. The Notes will incur a simple interest rate obligation of 0.0% per annum (which will increase to 18.0% per annum upon the occurrence of an event of default). The outstanding principal amount of, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on, and the Payment Premium, if any, on the Notes must be paid by NioCorp in cash when the same becomes due and payable under the terms of the Notes at their stated maturity, upon their redemption or otherwise.

As mentioned above, NioCorp is required to make payments on each Payment Date until the entire outstanding principal is repaid, but will not have an obligation to make a payment on a Payment Date if the Equity Conditions are satisfied. The "Equity Conditions" means (i) on each of the five consecutive trading days prior a Payment Date (the "Measuring Period") a registration statement registering the resale by the Purchasers of the Underlying Shares under the Securities Act (the "Underlying Shares Registration Statement") is effective and available for the resale by the Purchasers of all Underlying Shares, (ii) NioCorp has no knowledge of any fact that would cause the Underlying Shares Registration Statement not to be effective and available for the resale of the Underlying Shares, (iii) on each day during the Measuring Period, the Common Shares are designated for quotation on Nasdaq, or on such other market or exchange on which the Common Shares are then listed or traded to the extent such other market or exchange is the principal U.S. trading market for the Common Shares (the "Principal U.S. Market"), and have not been suspended from trading nor have delisting or suspension of trading been threatened or pending, (iv) during the Measuring Period, an event of default has not occurred, (v) on each trading day during the Measuring Period, the daily U.S. dollar volume-weighted average price for a Common Share on the Principal U.S. Market as reported by Bloomberg Financial Markets is greater than 120% of the Fixed Conversion Price, (vi) on each trading day during the Measuring Period the average daily volume traded exceeded $500,000, and (vii) there is no limitation on conversion under the terms of Notes. In addition, any Payment Date and the amount payable to the holder of a Note on any such Payment Date may be modified from time to time upon mutual written consent of NioCorp and such holder.

Pursuant to the terms of the Notes, to the extent a holder is a party to Yorkville Equity Facility Financing Agreement, for so long as any amount remains outstanding under such holder's Note, the amount of cash received by the Company as payment from such holder in respect of an Advance (as defined in the Yorkville Equity Facility Financing Agreement) is subject to a right of offset, exercisable in such holder's sole discretion, against an equal amount of principal, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, and other amounts that have become due and payable under the Note, not to exceed $1.512 million in any calendar month.

The Notes may also be redeemed at NioCorp's option at any time and from time to time over their term at a redemption price equal to the principal amount being redeemed, plus the Payment Premium, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, as of the redemption date.

The Notes contain events of default customary for instruments of their type (with customary grace periods, as applicable) and provide that, upon the occurrence of an event of default arising from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency with respect to NioCorp, all outstanding Notes will become due and payable immediately without further action or notice. If any other type of event of default occurs and is continuing, then any holder may declare all of its Notes to be due and payable immediately.

Pursuant to a global guaranty agreement, dated as of April 11, 2024, among ECRC and 0896800 B.C. Ltd. (together with ECRC, the "Guarantors"), the Guarantors guaranteed the full, prompt and unconditional payment when due (whether at maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), and the performance of all liabilities, agreements and other obligations of NioCorp to the Purchasers contained in the Notes and the Purchase Agreement, to the extent such liabilities, agreements and obligations are payable in cash.

**April 2024 Warrants**

On April 12, 2024, in connection with the closing of the April 2024 Private Placement, the Company issued to the Purchasers, in proportion to the aggregate principal amount of Notes issued to each Purchaser, April 2024 Warrants to purchase the April 2024 Warrant Shares, which is equal to 25% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes issued to the Purchasers divided by the April 2024 Exercise Price, subject to any adjustment to give effect to any stock dividend, stock split or recapitalization.

The terms of the April 2024 Warrants restrict the exercise of the April 2024 Warrants by a holder if such an exercise would cause such holder to exceed certain beneficial ownership thresholds in NioCorp.

The April 2024 Warrants will be exercisable, in whole or in part, but not in increments of less than $50,000 aggregate April 2024 Exercise Price (unless the remaining aggregate April 2024 Exercise Price is less than $50,000), at any time on or before April 12, 2027. Holders of the April 2024 Warrants may exercise their April 2024 Warrants, at their election, by paying the April 2024 Exercise Price in cash or on a cashless exercise basis, if at any time there is no effective registration statement or prospectus available for the resale of the underlying Common Shares or an event of default under the Notes has occurred and is continuing.

The April 2024 Warrants are subject to adjustment for any stock dividend or other distribution, stock split, reverse stock split or recapitalization

 **Description of Warrants**

**General**

The following description, together with the additional information we may include in any applicable prospectus supplement, summarizes the material terms and provisions of the Warrants that we may offer under this prospectus. While the terms we have summarized below will apply generally to any Warrants that we may offer under this prospectus, we will describe the particular terms of any series of Warrants in more detail in the applicable prospectus supplement. The terms of any Warrants offered under a prospectus supplement may differ from the terms described below.

We will file as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part, or will incorporate by reference from another report that we file with the SEC, the form of Warrant agreement or Warrant indenture, which may include a form of Warrant certificate, that describes the terms of the particular series of Warrants we are offering before the issuance of the related series of Warrants. The following summary of material provisions of the Warrants and the Warrant agreements and the Warrant indentures are subject to, and qualified in their entirety by reference to, all the provisions of the Warrant agreement or Warrant indenture, and Warrant certificate, applicable to a particular series of Warrants. We urge you to read the applicable prospectus supplement related to the particular series of Warrants that we sell under this prospectus, as well as the complete Warrant agreements, Warrant indentures and Warrant certificates that contain the terms of the Warrants.

We will describe in the applicable prospectus supplement the terms relating to Warrants being offered including:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· the offering price and aggregate number of Warrants offered;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· if applicable, the number of Warrants issued with each Common Share being
issued;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· if applicable, the date on and after which the Warrants and the related
Common Shares will be separately transferable;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· the number of Common Shares purchasable upon exercise of one Warrant and
the price at which these Common Shares may be purchased upon such exercise;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· the terms of any rights to redeem or call the Warrants;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· any provisions for changes to or adjustments in the exercise price or number
of Common Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· the dates on which the right to exercise the Warrants will commence and
expire;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· the manner in which the Warrant agreements, Warrant indentures and Warrants
may be modified;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· federal income tax consequences of holding or exercising the Warrants, if
material; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· any other specific terms, preferences, rights or limitations of or restrictions
on the Warrants.

Before exercising their Warrants, holders of Warrants will not have any of the rights of holders of the Common Shares purchasable upon such exercise, including the right to receive dividends, if any, or payments upon our liquidation, dissolution or winding up of our affairs or to exercise voting rights, if any.

**Exercise of Warrants**

Unless we otherwise specify in the applicable prospectus supplement, each Warrant will entitle the holder to purchase one Common Share at the exercise price that we describe in the applicable prospectus supplement. Unless we otherwise specify in the applicable prospectus supplement, holders of the Warrants may exercise the Warrants at any time up to the specified time on the expiration date that we set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement, and after the close of business on the expiration date, unexercised Warrants will become void.

Holders of the Warrants may exercise the Warrants by delivering the Warrant certificate representing the Warrants to be exercised together with specified information, and paying the required amount to the Warrant agent in immediately available funds, as provided in the applicable prospectus supplement. We intend to set forth in any Warrant agreement or Warrant indenture and in the applicable prospectus supplement the information that the holder of the Warrant will be required to deliver to the Warrant agent.

Upon receipt of the required payment and any Warrant certificate or other form required for exercise properly completed and duly executed at the corporate trust office of the Warrant agent or any other office indicated in the applicable prospectus supplement, we will issue and deliver the Common Shares purchasable upon such exercise. If fewer than all of the Warrants represented by the Warrant or Warrant certificate are exercised, then we will issue a new Warrant or Warrant certificate for the remaining amount of Warrants. If we so indicate in the applicable prospectus supplement, holders of the Warrants may surrender securities as all or part of the exercise price for Warrants.

 **Description of Units**

As specified in the applicable prospectus supplement, we may issue units consisting of one or more of the following: Common Shares, Warrants or any combination of such securities. The applicable prospectus supplement will describe:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· the terms of the units and of any of our Common Shares or Warrants comprising
the units, including whether and under what circumstances the securities comprising the units may be traded separately;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· a description of the terms of any unit agreement governing the units;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· a description of the provisions for the payment, settlement, transfer or
exchange of the units; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· if applicable, a discussion of any material federal income tax considerations.

 **Plan of Distribution**

We may sell the securities from time to time in one or more transactions:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· through one or more underwriters or dealers;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· directly to purchasers, including our existing shareholders in a rights
offering;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· through agents; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· through a combination of any of these methods of sale.

We may distribute the securities from time to time in one or more transactions at:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· a fixed price or prices, which may be changed from time to time;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· market prices prevailing at the time of sale;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· prices related to prevailing market prices; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· negotiated prices.

We will describe the method of distribution of each series of securities in the applicable prospectus supplement.

We may determine the price or other terms of the securities offered under this prospectus by use of an electronic auction. We will describe how any auction will determine the price or any other terms, how potential investors may participate in the auction and the nature of the underwriters' obligations in the related supplement to this prospectus.

Underwriters, dealers or agents may receive compensation in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions from us or our purchasers as their agents in connection with the sale of the securities. These underwriters, dealers or agents may be considered to be underwriters under the Securities Act. As a result, discounts, commissions or profits on resale received by underwriters, dealers or agents may be treated as underwriting discounts and commissions. Each prospectus supplement will identify any underwriter, dealer or agent, and describe any compensation received by them from us. We may grant underwriters who participate in the distribution of securities an option to purchase additional securities to cover over-allotments, if any, in connection with the distribution.

We may have agreements with the underwriters, dealers and agents to indemnify them against specified civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act. Underwriters, dealers and agents may engage in transactions with or perform services for us in the ordinary course of their businesses.

To the extent required, this prospectus may be amended and supplemented from time to time to describe a specific plan of distribution.

**Agents**

We may designate agents who agree to use their reasonable efforts to solicit purchases of our securities for the period of their appointment or to sell our securities on a continuing basis.

**Underwriters**

If we use underwriters for a sale of securities, the underwriters will acquire the securities for their own account. The underwriters may resell the securities in one or more transactions, including negotiated transactions, at a fixed public offering price or at varying prices determined at the time of sale. The obligations of the underwriters to purchase the securities will be subject to the conditions set forth in the applicable underwriting agreement. The underwriters will be obligated to purchase all the securities of the series offered if they purchase any of the securities of that series. We may change from time to time any initial public offering price and any discounts or concessions the underwriters allow or reallow or pay to dealers. We may use underwriters with whom we have a material relationship. We will describe the nature of any such relationship in any prospectus supplement naming any such underwriter.

**Direct Sales**

We may also sell securities directly to one or more purchasers without using underwriters or agents. Underwriters, dealers and agents that participate in the distribution of the securities may be underwriters as defined in the Securities Act, and any discounts or commissions they receive from us and any profit on their resale of the securities may be treated as underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act. We will identify in the applicable prospectus supplement any underwriters, dealers or agents and will describe their compensation.

**Trading Markets and Listing of Securities**

Unless otherwise specified in the applicable prospectus supplement, each class or series of securities will be a new issue with no established trading market, other than our Common Shares, which are listed on The Nasdaq Global Market. We may elect to list any other class or series of securities on any exchange or market, but we are not obligated to do so. It is possible that one or more underwriters may make a market in a class or series of securities, but the underwriters will not be obligated to do so and may discontinue any market making at any time without notice. We cannot give any assurance as to the liquidity of the trading market for any of the securities.

**Stabilization Activities**

Any underwriter may engage in over-allotment, stabilizing transactions, short covering transactions and penalty bids in accordance with Regulation M under the Exchange Act. Over-allotment involves sales in excess of the offering size, which create a short position. Stabilizing transactions permit bids to purchase the underlying security so long as the stabilizing bids do not exceed a specified maximum. Short covering transactions involve purchases of the securities in the open market after the distribution is completed to cover short positions. Penalty bids permit the underwriters to reclaim a selling concession from a dealer when the securities originally sold by the dealer are purchased in a covering transaction to cover short positions. Those activities may cause the price of the securities to be higher than it would otherwise be. If commenced, the underwriters may discontinue any of these activities at any time.

**Delayed Delivery Contracts**

If we so indicate in the prospectus supplement, we may authorize agents, underwriters or dealers to solicit offers from certain types of institutions to purchase securities from us at the public offering price under delayed delivery contracts. These contracts would provide for payment and delivery on a specified date in the future. The contracts would be subject only to those conditions described in the prospectus supplement. The prospectus supplement will describe the commission payable for solicitation of those contracts.

 **Legal Matters**

The validity of the securities in respect of which this prospectus is being delivered will be passed upon for us by Blake, Cassels & Graydon LLP, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, relating to matters of British Columbia or Canadian law, and Jones Day, relating to matters of New York or U.S. federal law. Additional legal matters may be passed upon for us or any underwriters, dealers or agents by counsel that we will name in the applicable prospectus supplement.
