**Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.**

On August 27, 2025 (August 28, 2025 - Perth, Australia), Energy Fuels Inc. ("**Energy Fuels**") and wholly owned Energy Fuels subsidiary Base Resources Limited ("**Base Resources**" and, with Energy Fuels, the "**Company**") entered into a Separation and Release Deed (the "**Separation Deed**") with Timothy J. Carstens, current Executive Vice President, Heavy Mineral Sands Operations of Energy Fuels and Managing Director of Base Resources, pursuant to which the parties agree that Mr. Carstens' employment with the Company will terminate on December 31, 2025 ("**Separation**").

Mr. Carstens made the decision to step down after determining, in consultation with the Company, that his role in its pre-acquisition form is no longer required for genuine operational reasons. Up to Separation, Mr. Carstens will continue to receive his ordinary salary and to accrue annual leave and long service leave and remains subject to a number of ongoing obligations owed to the Company, including supporting a smooth transition, consistent with his fiduciary duties. The Separation Deed permits the Company to limit Mr. Carstens' work and engagement on Company matters, as desired, and provides for earlier Separation in limited circumstances.

At Separation, Mr. Carstens is entitled to receive the following "**Termination Entitlements**," subject to tax withholding and superannuation fund obligations, including:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1. six months' salary in lieu of notice;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2. 12 weeks' salary as a redundancy payment;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3. any salary and superannuation contributions that are outstanding as at Separation;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4. an amount equal to the cash bonus that would have been received for performance in 2025 under Energy Fuels' Short-Term Incentive Plan, calculated as his "target" of base salary, being 50% of his annual base salary for a total of A$363,120.00; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5. a gross sum for any unused annual leave or long service leave accrued as at Separation.

Assuming a December 31, 2025 Separation, the estimated amount payable to Mr. Carstens is a cash payment in the amount of A$893,833.85, or US$583,047.82 calculated using an exchange rate of A$1.00 to US$0.6523 as of August 28, 2025. The dollar values of Termination Entitlements 3 and 5 are not yet known.

Also at Separation, and in accordance with Energy Fuels' Omnibus Equity Incentive Compensation Plan (the "**Omnibus Plan**"), all unvested Restricted Stock Units ("**RSUs**") and Performance-Based Non-Qualified Stock Options ("**Performance-Based Options**") then held by Mr. Carstens shall not terminate or expire on December 31, 2025, but shall instead have their termination or expiry dates waived and amended to January 31, 2026, allowing his existing RSU equity grants to vest as to 50% on January 27, 2026 and his existing Performance-Based Option grants to vest as to 50% on January 29, 2026 according to their original award agreement terms. On January 31, 2026, all remaining unvested RSUs and unvested Performance-Based Options held shall expire and be immediately forfeited to Energy Fuels. The post-Separation exercise period of three months applicable to Mr. Carstens' Performance-Based Options shall be amended to commence from January 29, 2026 (being the last applicable vesting date) and to expire on April 29, 2026 as of market close on the NYSE American.

Mr. Carstens will not be entitled to receive any new equity grants under the Company's Long-Term Incentive Plan in January 2026 or otherwise for performance in 2025.

Where an earlier Separation occurs, Mr. Carstens is entitled to receive Termination Entitlements 3 and 5, as set forth above, plus any previously vested rights under the Company's Omnibus Plan yet to be paid out.

The foregoing description of the Separation Deed between the Company and Mr. Carstens is qualified in its entirety by reference to the actual terms of the Separation Deed, which has been filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, and which is incorporated herein by reference.

**Between Tim Carstens** of __________________________________________

**And Base Resources Limited** (ABN 88 125 546 910) of Level 3, 46 Colin Street, West Perth, in the State of Western Australia (**Base Resources**)

**And Energy Fuels Inc.** of 225 Union Boulevard Suite 600 Lakewood, Colorado 80228 United States (**Energy Fuels**)

Background

A Mr Carstens has been employed by Base Resources in the position of Managing Director (**Employment**). Mr Carstens has also held the title of Executive Vice President, Heavy Mineral Sands Operations of Energy Fuels.

B Base Resources is an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Energy Fuels.

C Mr Carstens is employed under an employment agreement with Base Resources dated 6 May 2008 (**Contract**), which was varied by agreement on 26 June 2008 and 19 October 2009.

D During the Employment, Mr Carstens participated in the Energy Fuels Executive Short Term Incentive Plan (**STIP**) and Energy Fuels Executive Long-Term Incentive Plan (**LTIP**) (together, the **Energy Fuels Plans**).

E Following the acquisition of Base Resources by Energy Fuels in October 2024, Base Resources and its shareholders have undertaken a review of Base Resources' operations and have decided that, for genuine operational reasons, Base Resources no longer requires the role performed by Mr Carstens to be performed by anyone (**Redundancy**).

F By this deed, the parties agree that Mr Carstens' employment with Base Resources will terminate by reason of redundancy effective 5.00 pm on 31 December 2025 (**Termination Date**), unless terminated earlier under clause 1(d) (**Summary Dismissal Date**). Mr Carstens will remain employed until the Termination Date or the Summary Dismissal Date (whichever applies) (**Notice Period**).

G Mr Carstens and Base Resources and Energy Fuels have reached agreement on the terms set out in this deed.
