------

"**Prospectus**"), remains effective. The Securities may be offered separately or together, in separate series, in amounts, at prices and on terms to be determined at the time of sale and set forth in one or more prospectus supplements (each, a "**Prospectus Supplement**"). This Prospectus qualifies the distribution of Securities by the Company. In addition, Securities may be offered and issued in consideration for the acquisition of other businesses, assets or securities by the Company or a subsidiary of the Company. The consideration for any such acquisition may consist of any of the Securities separately, a combination of Securities or any combination of, among other things, Securities, cash and assumption of liabilities.

The specific terms of any offering of Securities will be set out in the applicable Prospectus Supplement and may include, without limitation, where applicable: (i) in the case of Common Shares, the number of Common Shares being offered, the offering price (or the manner of determination thereof if offered on a non-fixed price basis), whether the Common Shares are being offered for cash, and any other terms specific to the Common Shares being offered; (ii) in the case of Debt Securities, the specific designation of the Debt Securities, whether such Debt Securities are senior or subordinated, the aggregate principal amount of the Debt Securities being offered, the currency or currency unit in which the Debt Securities may be purchased, authorized denominations, any limit on the aggregate principal amount of the Debt Securities of the series being offered, the issue and delivery date, the maturity date, the offering price (at par, at a discount or at a premium), the interest rate or method of determining the interest rate, the interest payment date(s), any conversion or exchange rights that are attached to the Debt Securities, any redemption provisions, any repayment provisions, and any other terms specific to the Debt Securities being offered; (iii) in the case of Subscription Receipts, the number of Subscription Receipts being offered, the offering price (or the manner of determination thereof if offered on a non-fixed price basis), whether the Subscription Receipts are being offered for cash, the terms, conditions and procedures for the exchange of Subscription Receipts for Common Shares and/or other securities of the Company, as the case may be, the currency or currency unit in which the Subscription Receipts are issued, and any other terms specific to the Subscription Receipts being offered; (iv) in the case of Warrants, the number of Warrants being offered, the offering price (or the manner of determination thereof if offered on a non-fixed price basis), whether the Warrants are being offered for cash, the terms, conditions and procedures for the exercise of such Warrants into or for Common Shares and/or other securities of the Company, and any other terms specific to the Warrants being offered; and (v) in the case of Units, the designation and terms of the Units and of the Securities comprising the Units, the offering price (or the manner of determination thereof if offered on a non-fixed price basis), whether the Units are being offered for cash, the currency or currency unit in which the Units are issued, and any other terms specific to the Units being offered. A Prospectus Supplement may include other specific terms pertaining to the Securities that are not within the alternatives and parameters described in this Prospectus. You should read this Prospectus and any applicable Prospectus Supplement carefully before you invest in any Securities.

All shelf information permitted under applicable securities legislation to be omitted from this Prospectus will be contained in one or more Prospectus Supplements that will be delivered to purchasers together with this Prospectus, unless an exemption from the prospectus delivery requirements is available. Each Prospectus Supplement will be incorporated by reference into this Prospectus for the purposes of securities legislation as of the date of such Prospectus Supplement and only for the purposes of the distribution of the Securities to which such Prospectus Supplement pertains.

This Prospectus may qualify an "at-the-market distribution" as defined in NI 44-102. This Prospectus does not qualify for issuance Debt Securities, or Securities convertible into or exchangeable for Debt Securities, in respect of which the payment of principal and/or interest may be determined, in whole or in part, by reference to one or more underlying interests including, for example, an equity or debt security, a statistical measure of economic or financial performance including, but not limited to, any currency, consumer price or mortgage index, or the price or value of one or more commodities, indices or other items, or any other item or formula, or any combination or basket of the foregoing items. For greater certainty, this Prospectus may qualify for issuance Debt Securities, or Securities convertible into or exchangeable for Debt Securities, in respect of which the payment of principal and/or interest may be determined, in whole or in part, by reference to published rates of a central banking authority or one or more financial institutions, such as a prime rate or bankers' acceptance rate, or to recognized market benchmark interest rates such as the Canadian Overnight Repo Rate Average ("**CORRA**") or a United States federal funds rate.

We may offer and sell the Securities to or through underwriters or dealers purchasing as principals and may also sell the Securities to one or more purchasers directly or through agents designated by the Company from time to time. The Prospectus Supplement relating to a particular offering of Securities will identify each underwriter, dealer or agent, if

- ii -

any, engaged by the Company in connection with the offering and sale of the Securities and will set forth the terms of the offering of such Securities, the method of distribution of such Securities, including the proceeds to us, and, to the extent applicable, any fees, discounts or any other compensation payable to underwriters, dealers or agents and any other material terms of the plan of distribution. If offered on a non-fixed price basis, Securities may be offered at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to such prevailing market prices or at prices to be negotiated with purchasers at the time of sale, which prices may vary between purchasers and during the period of distribution. If Securities are offered on a non-fixed price basis, the underwriters', dealers' or agents' compensation will be increased or decreased by the amount by which the aggregate price paid for Securities by the purchasers exceeds or is less than the gross proceeds paid by the underwriters, dealers or agents to the Company. See "Plan of Distribution".

Unless otherwise specified in the relevant Prospectus Supplement, subject to applicable laws, in connection with any offering of Securities, other than an "at-the-market distribution", the underwriters, dealers or agents may over-allot or effect transactions that are intended to stabilize or maintain the market price of the offered Securities at levels other than those which otherwise might prevail on the open market. Such transactions, if commenced, may be discontinued at any time. No underwriter, dealer or agent involved in an "at-the-market distribution", no affiliate of such an underwriter, dealer or agent and no person or company acting jointly or in concert with such an underwriter, dealer or agent may, in connection with the distribution, enter into any transaction that is intended to stabilize or maintain the market price of the Securities distributed, including selling an aggregate number or principal amount of securities that would result in the underwriter, dealer or agent creating an over-allocation position in the Securities distributed. See "Plan of Distribution".

As at the date of this Prospectus, no underwriter, dealer or agent is in a contractual relationship with the Company requiring the underwriter, dealer or agent to distribute under this Prospectus. No underwriter, dealer or agent has been involved in the preparation of this Prospectus or performed any review of the contents of this Prospectus**.**

**Unless otherwise specified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, the Debt Securities, Subscription Receipts, Warrants and Units will not be listed on any securities exchange. There is no market through which the Securities, other than the Common Shares, may be sold and purchasers may not be able to resell such Securities purchased under this Prospectus and any applicable Prospectus Supplement. This may affect the pricing of such Securities in the secondary market, the transparency and availability of trading prices, the liquidity of such Securities, and the extent of issuer regulation. See "Risk Factors" below and the "Risk Factors" section of the applicable Prospectus Supplement.**

 **REGULATOR PASSED UPON THE ACCURACY OR ADEQUACY OF THIS PROSPECTUS. ANY REPRESENTATION TO THE CONTRARY IS A CRIMINAL OFFENSE.** 

**We are permitted, under a multi-jurisdictional disclosure system adopted by the securities regulatory authorities in the United States and Canada ("MJDS"), to prepare this Prospectus in accordance with Canadian disclosure requirements, which are different from United States disclosure requirements.**

You should read the tax discussion in any Prospectus Supplement with respect to a particular offering of Securities and consult your own tax advisor with respect to your own particular circumstances.**

**ABOUT THIS PROSPECTUS** 

This Prospectus provides a general description of the Securities that we may offer. Each time we sell Securities under this Prospectus, we will prepare a Prospectus Supplement that will contain specific information about the terms of that offering. The Prospectus Supplement may also add, update or change information contained in this Prospectus. Before investing in any Securities, you should read both this Prospectus and any applicable Prospectus Supplement, together with the additional information described below and in the applicable Prospectus Supplement under "Documents Incorporated by Reference".

Investors should rely only on the information contained in or incorporated by reference in this Prospectus and any applicable Prospectus Supplement and are not entitled to rely on certain parts of the information contained in or incorporated by reference in this Prospectus and any applicable Prospectus Supplement to the exclusion of the remainder. We have not authorized anyone to provide investors with different or additional information. If anyone provides you with different or additional information, you should not rely on it. We are not making an offer of Securities in any jurisdiction where the offer or sale of Securities is not permitted by law. Prospective investors should not assume that the information contained in or incorporated by reference in this Prospectus and any applicable Prospectus Supplement is accurate as of any date other than the date on the front of such documents (including the documents incorporated by reference herein and therein), regardless of the time of delivery of this Prospectus, any applicable Prospectus Supplement or any sale of Securities. Our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects may have changed since those dates. Information contained on the Company's website should not be deemed to be a part of this Prospectus, nor incorporated by reference herein.

Market data and certain industry forecasts used in the Prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference herein were obtained from market research, publicly available information and industry publications. We believe that these sources are generally reliable, but the accuracy and completeness of this information is not guaranteed. We have not independently verified such information, nor have we ascertained the validity or accuracy of the underlying economic assumptions relied upon therein, and we do not make any representation as to the accuracy of such information.

Unless we have indicated otherwise, or the context otherwise requires, references in this Prospectus and any Prospectus Supplement to "Anfield", the "Company", "we", "us" and "our" refer to Anfield Energy Inc. and/or, as applicable, one or more of its subsidiaries, its predecessors and/or its co-ownership arrangement.

Certain capitalized terms and other terms used in this Prospectus are defined in the "Glossary of Terms".

**FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION** 

This Prospectus, including the documents incorporated herein by reference, contains certain "forward-looking information" within the meaning of applicable Canadian securities legislation and "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (collectively referred to herein as "forward-looking information"). These statements relate to future events or the Company's future performance. All statements, other than statements of historical fact, may be forward-looking information. Information concerning mineral resource and mineral reserve estimates also may be deemed to be forward-looking information in that it reflects a prediction of mineralization that would be encountered if a mineral deposit were developed and mined. Forward-looking information generally can be identified by the use of words such as "seek", "anticipate", "plan", "continue", "estimate", "expect", "may", "will", "project", "predict", "propose", "potential", "target", "intend", "could", "might", "should", "believe", "scheduled", "implement" and similar words or expressions. These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results or events to differ materially from those anticipated in such forward-looking information. In particular, this Prospectus contains or incorporates by reference forward-looking information, including, without limitation, with respect to the following matters or the Company's expectations relating to such matters: capital expenditure programs; estimates of the quality and quantity of the mineral resources at our mineral properties; costs and timing of the development of new deposits; success of exploration activities, permitting time lines; title disputes or claims; development of mineral resources; treatment under governmental and taxation regimes; success of exploration programs; expectations regarding the Company's ability to raise capital; currency fluctuations; environmental risks; belief and expectations including the possible impact of any legal proceedings or regulatory actions against the Company; expenditures to be made by the

------

Company on its properties; the Company's expectations regarding the preparation of a feasibility study at the Velvet-Wood Project (as defined herein); the expectation for the development of the Velvet-Wood Project; the Company's overall strategy, objectives, plans and expectations for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 and beyond; plans and expectations including anticipated expenditures relating to exploration, pre-extraction, extraction and reclamation activities; work plans to be conducted by the Company; and other factors or information.

Forward-looking information does not take into account the effect of transactions or other items announced or occurring after the statements are made. Forward-looking information is based upon a number of expectations and assumptions and is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond the Company's control, which could cause actual results to differ materially from those that are disclosed in or implied by such forward-looking information. With respect to forward-looking information listed above and incorporated by reference herein, the Company has made assumptions regarding, among other things: uncertainties relating to receiving mining, exploration, environmental and other permits or approvals; unpredictable changes to the market prices for uranium; exploration and development costs for the Velvet-Wood Project, West Slope Project, Shootaring Canyon Mill and the Slick Rock Project; anticipated results of exploration and development activities; availability of additional financing; ability to remain in compliance with the terms of the Company's indebtedness; the Company's ability to obtain additional financing on satisfactory terms; the ability to achieve production at any of the Company's mineral exploration and development properties; preparation of a development plan at the Velvet-Wood Project, West Slope Project, Shootaring Canyon Mill and the Slick Rock Project; the ability to fund, advance and develop the Company's properties; the Company's ability to operate in a safe and effective manner; uncertainties with respect to receiving, and maintaining, mining, exploration, environmental and other permits; pricing and demand for uranium; impact of increasing competition; commodity prices, currency rates, interest rates and general economic conditions; the legislative, regulatory and community environments in the jurisdictions where the Company operates; impact of unknown financial contingencies; market prices for uranium; budgets and estimates of capital and operating costs; estimates of mineral resources and mineral reserves; reliability of technical data; the ability to negotiate access agreements on commercially reasonable terms and the anticipated timing and results of operation and development. Although the Company believes that the assumptions and expectations reflected in such forward-looking information are reasonable, the Company can give no assurance that these assumptions and expectations will prove to be correct.

**AVAILABLE INFORMATION** 

In addition to our continuous disclosure obligations under the securities laws of the provinces and territories of Canada, we are subject to the informational requirements of the Exchange Act and in accordance therewith file reports and other information with the SEC. Under the MJDS, such reports and other information may be prepared in accordance with the disclosure requirements of Canada, which requirements are different from those of the United States. As a foreign private issuer, the Company is exempt from the rules under the Exchange Act prescribing the furnishing and content of proxy statements, and the Company's officers and directors are exempt from the reporting and short swing profit recovery provisions contained in Section 16 of the Exchange Act. The Company's reports and other information filed or furnished with or to the SEC are electronically available from EDGAR at <u>http://www.sec.gov/edgar.</u>

The Company will file with the SEC a registration statement on Form F-10 under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended, with respect to the Securities. This Prospectus, which forms a part of the registration statement, does not contain all of the information set forth in the registration statement, certain items of which are contained in the exhibits to the registration statement as permitted or required by the rules and regulations of the SEC. Items of information omitted from this Prospectus but contained in the registration statement will be available on the SEC's website at .<u>http://www.sec.gov/edgar</u>.

**DOCUMENTS FILED AS PART OF THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT** 

The following documents have been or will be filed with the SEC as part of the registration statement of which this Prospectus forms a part: (i) the documents referred to in "Documents Incorporated by Reference"; (ii) the consents of auditors, counsel and any experts identified herein, if applicable; (iii) powers of attorney of the directors and officers of the Company; and (iv) a copy of the form of indenture for Debt Securities. A copy of any applicable form of warrant indenture, subscription receipt agreement or statement of eligibility of trustee on Form T-1, as applicable, will be filed by post-effective amendment or by incorporation by reference to documents filed or furnished with the SEC under the Exchange Act.

**ENFORCEABILITY OF CERTAIN CIVIL LIABILITIES AND AGENT FOR SERVICE OF PROCESS** 

**Purchasers are advised that it may not be possible for investors to enforce judgments obtained in Canada against any person that resides outside of Canada, even if the party has appointed an agent for service of process.**

Your ability to enforce civil liabilities under United States federal securities laws may be affected adversely because: (i) the Company is governed by the BCBCA; (ii) certain officers, four of the directors and some of the experts

------

named in this Prospectus are not residents of the United States; and (iii) certain of the Company's assets and all or a substantial portion of the assets of such persons are located outside of the United States. The Company has appointed an agent for service of process in the United States, but it may be difficult for investors who reside in the United States to effect service of process upon the Company or these persons in the United States, or to enforce a U.S. court judgment predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws against the Company or any of these persons. There is substantial doubt whether an action could be brought in Canada in the first instance predicated solely upon U.S. federal securities laws.

The Company will file with the SEC, concurrently with the registration statement on Form F-10 of which this Prospectus forms a part, an appointment of agent for service of process on Form F-X. Under the Form F-X, the Company will appoint Dorsey & Whitney LLP, with an address at 3400 - 66 Wellington Street W, Toronto, Ontario, M5K 1G8, as its agent for service of process in the United States in connection with any investigation or administrative proceeding conducted by the SEC, and any civil suit or action brought against or involving the Company in a United States court arising out of or related to or concerning the offering of Securities under the registration statement on Form F-10.

**Ken Mushinski, John Eckersley, Jeff Duncan, Joshua D. Bleak and Stephen S. Lunsford, each a director of the Company, and Douglas L. Beahm, the Chief Operating Officer of the Company, Carl D. Warren, Harold J. Hutson and Terrence (Terry) P. McNulty, each a "qualified person" under NI 43-101 who has prepared or supervised the preparation of certain scientific and technical information contained or incorporated by reference in this Prospectus, reside outside of Canada. Messrs. Ken Mushinski, John Eckersley, Joshua D. Bleak, Jeff Duncan and Stephen S. Lunsford have appointed Cassels Brock & Blackwell LLP, Suite 2200, 885 West Georgia Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, V6C 3E8 as agent for service of process in Canada.**

It changed its name several times: to Dencam Development Corporation on August 17, 1992; to Consolidated Dencam Development Corporation on January 19, 1994; to Equinox Exploration Corp. on March 13, 2009; to Equinox Copper Corp. on February 1, 2013; and to Anfield Resources Inc. on September 20, 2013. Finally, on December 27, 2017, the Company changed its name from Anfield Resources Inc. to Anfield Energy Inc.

The Company's head office and its registered and records offices are located at 2005-4390 Grange Street, Burnaby, British Columbia, Canada. The Company also has a project office in Apache Junction, Arizona, U.S.

**BUSINESS OF THE COMPANY** 

The Company is an energy metals exploration, development and near-term production company that is committed to becoming a top-tier energy-related fuels supplier by creating value through sustainable, efficient growth in its energy metals assets. The Company is engaged in the acquisition and development of uranium assets in the United States.

Anfield's assets include: (i) the West Slope project, located in Colorado (the "**West Slope Project**"); (ii) the Velvet-Wood uranium and vanadium project (the "**Velvet-Wood Project**"), including the Shootaring Canyon mill (the "**Shootaring Canyon Mill**"), both located in Utah; (iii) the Slick Rock conventional uranium and vanadium project, located in Colorado (the "**Slick Rock Project**"); and (iv) surface stockpiles containing approximately 370,000 pounds of uranium. The Company's assets have been chosen for their production potential and location in a safe and politically-stable jurisdiction.

------

Management of the Company considers the West Slope Project, Velvet-Wood Project, Slick Rock Project and the Shootaring Canyon Mill to be the material properties of the Company.

The Company intends to focus its business activity in the near term on advancing its conventional uranium and vanadium portfolio closer to production. This includes updating its radioactive materials license at the Shootaring Canyon Mill (the "**Radioactive Materials License**"), determining economics for its West Slope Project and, uranium price permitting, advancing both its Velvet-Wood Project and Slick Rock Project.

------

**Project Overview** 

*The West Slope Project* 

The West Slope Project is located within the Uravan Mineral District of southwestern Colorado, approximately 10 miles west of Naturita, Colorado, within Sections 16 to 22, 29, 30, T46N, R17W, 6<sup>th</sup> P.M., of Montrose County, Colorado. The West Slope Project consists of four adjacent U.S. Department of Energy ("**DOE**") mineral leases, JD-6, JD-7, JD-8, and JD-9, that were previously developed and mined by Cotter Corporation from the late 1970s to early 2000s. All the four leases experienced underground mining activity over the 30-year period. In addition, the JD-7 lease also had significant open pit stripping performed to within less than 100 feet of the top of mineralization. Mineral resource estimates for the four leases, JD-6, JD-7, JD-8, and JD-9, were completed for and are the subject of the West Slope Technical Report (as defined below).

The technical report entitled "US DOE Uranium/Vanadium Leases JD-6, JD-7, JD-8, and JD-9 Montrose County, Colorado, USA" and dated April 10, 2022 (the "**West Slope Technical Report**"), which refers to the four core DOE leases of the nine which make up the West Slope Project, was prepared by Douglas L. Beahm, P.E., P.G., Carl Warren, P.E., P.G. and Joshua Stewart, P.E., P.G. of BRS, Inc., all of whom were independent qualified persons for the purposes of NI 43-101 at the time the West Slope Technical Report was prepared. Joshua Stewart is no longer employed by BRS, Inc. Therefore, BRS, Inc. is now taking responsibility for all of the statements made by Joshua Stewart in respect of the West Slope Technical Report. A technical report for the remaining five DOE leases, which do not share common geography or development plans, have not been prepared. The West Slope Technical Report is available on the Company's SEDAR+ profile at www.sedarplus.ca.

At the West Slope Project, the Company is pursuing a preliminary economic assessment ("**PEA**") for four of the nine mineral leases held within the West Slope Project portfolio.

*The Shootaring Canyon Mill, Velvet-Wood Project and Slick Rock Project* 

The Shootaring Canyon Mill is one of only three licensed, permitted and constructed conventional uranium mills in existence in the United States, with the other two held by Rio Tinto Group and Uranium Energy Corp. (Sweetwater) and Energy Fuels (White Mesa). Located approximately 48 miles (77 kilometres) south of Hanksville, Utah, the Shootaring Canyon Mill is a conventional acid-leach facility that is permitted to process up to 750 tonnes of ore per day, with a capacity to process up to 1,000 tonnes per day. The Shootaring Canyon Mill was built in 1980 and during its period of operation it processed and sold 27,825 pounds of triuranium octoxide. It ceased operation with the collapse of the uranium price in the early 1980s.

The Velvet-Wood Project is located within the Lisbon Valley physiographic province in San Juan County, Utah. The Velvet mine produced a reported 400,000 tons of ore containing some 4.2 million pounds of uranium (U<sub>3</sub>O<sub>8</sub>) and 4.8 million pounds of vanadium (V<sub>2</sub>O<sub>5</sub>) (Chenoweth, 1990).

The Slick Rock Project is located in the southern end of the Uravan mineral belt of the Colorado Plateau physiographic province and at the southeastern edge of the Paradox fold and fault belt in the proximal Disappointment syncline. The Slick Rock District is also a past producer with reported production of 2,236,723 pounds of uranium (U<sub>3</sub>O<sub>8</sub>) and 13,941,457 pounds of vanadium (V<sub>2</sub>O<sub>5</sub>) (Chenoweth, 1990).

The combined Velvet-Wood Project and Slick Rock Project PEA entitled "*The Shootaring Canyon Mill and Velvet Wood and Slick Rock Uranium Projects, Preliminary Economic Assessment"* and dated May 6, 2023 (the "**2023 PEA**"), was authored by Douglas L. Beahm, P.E., P.G. Principal Engineer, Harold H. Hutson, P.E., P.G. and Carl D. Warren, P.E., P.G., of BRS, Inc., and Terrence P. (Terry) McNulty, P.E., D. Sc., of T.P. McNulty and Associates Inc., all of whom were independent qualified persons for the purposes of NI 43-101 at the time the 2023 PEA was prepared. The 2023 PEA is available on the Company's SEDAR+ profile at <u>www.sedarplus.ca</u>.

At the Velvet-Wood Project and Slick Rock Project, the Company engaged consultants to provide a combined PEA and to complete a mine plan as the current uranium price has reached a high-enough level to make such a pursuit economically viable.

At the Shootaring Canyon Mill, the Company is updating its Radioactive Materials License in order to update the license from its current "standby status" to "operational status".

The BCBCA and the Company's constating documents provide that the rights and restrictions attached to any class of shares may not be modified, amended or varied unless consented to by special resolution passed by not less than two-thirds of the votes cast in person or by proxy by holders of shares of that class.

The holders of the Common Shares are entitled to: (i) notice of and to attend any meetings of shareholders and shall have one vote per Common Share at any meeting of shareholders of the Company; (ii) dividends, if as and when declared by the Board of Directors; and (iii) upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, on a pro rata basis, the net assets of the Company after payment of debts and other liabilities, in each case subject to the rights, privileges, restrictions and conditions attaching to any other series or class of shares ranking senior in priority.

**Dividend Policy** 

The Company has no fixed dividend policy and the Company has not declared any dividends on its Common Shares since its incorporation. The Company anticipates that all available funds will be used to undertake exploration and development programs on its mineral properties as well as for the acquisition of additional mineral properties. The payment of dividends in the future will depend, among other things, upon the Company's earnings, capital requirements and operating and financial condition. Generally, dividends can only be paid if a corporation has retained earnings. There can be no assurance that the Company will generate sufficient earnings to allow it to pay dividends.

**DESCRIPTION OF DEBT SECURITIES** 

Debt Securities may be issued in one or more series under an indenture to be entered into between the Company and one or more trustees that will be named in a Prospectus Supplement for a series of Debt Securities. To the extent applicable, the indenture will be subject to and governed by the United States Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended. A copy of the form of the indenture to be entered into has been or will be filed with the SEC as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this Prospectus forms a part and will be filed with the securities commissions or similar authorities in Canada when it is entered into. The Company may issue Debt Securities, separately or together, with Common Shares, Subscription Receipts, Warrants or Units or any combination thereof, as the case may be.

**DESCRIPTION OF UNITS** 

The following sets forth certain general terms and provisions of the Units. The Company may issue Units comprising any combination of the other Securities described in this Prospectus. Each Unit will be issued so that the holder of the Unit is also the holder of each Security included in the Unit. Thus, the holder of a Unit will have the rights and obligations of a holder of each Security comprising the Unit. The agreement, if any, under which a Unit is issued may provide that the Securities comprising the Unit may not be held or transferred separately, at any time or at any time before a specified date.

------

The Prospectus Supplement relating to any Units being offered will include specific terms and provisions of the Units being offered thereby. These terms and provisions will include some or all of the following:

The preceding description and any description of Units in the applicable Prospectus Supplement does not purport to be complete and is subject to and is qualified in its entirety by reference to, if applicable, the unit agreement, collateral arrangements and depositary arrangements relating to such Units.

**PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION** 

The Company may, during the 25-month period that this Prospectus remains effective, offer for sale and issue, as applicable, the Securities, separately or together: (i) through underwriters, dealers or agents purchasing as principal or acting as agent; (ii) directly to one or more purchasers, including sales upon the exercise of conversion or exchange rights attaching to convertible or exchangeable securities held by the purchaser; or (iii) through a combination of any of these methods of sale. Securities sold to the public pursuant to this Prospectus may be offered and sold exclusively in Canada or the United States, or in both jurisdictions. The Prospectus Supplement relating to each offering of Securities will indicate the jurisdiction or jurisdictions in which such offering is being made to the public, identify each underwriter, dealer or agent, as the case may be, and will also set forth the terms of that offering, including the purchase price or prices of the Securities (or the manner of determination thereof if offered on a non- fixed price basis), the proceeds to the Company and any underwriters', dealers' or agents' fees, commissions or other items constituting underwriters' or agents' compensation. Only underwriters, dealers or agents so named in the applicable Prospectus Supplement are deemed to be underwriters, dealers or agents, as the case may be, in connection with the Securities offered thereby. A Prospectus Supplement may provide that the Securities sold thereunder will be "flow-through" securities.

The Securities may be sold, from time to time in one or more transactions at a fixed price or prices which may be changed or at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to such prevailing market prices or at negotiated prices, including sales in transactions that are deemed to be "at-the-market distributions" as defined in NI 44-102, including sales made directly on the TSXV, Nasdaq or other existing trading markets for the securities. The prices at which the Securities may be offered may vary between purchasers and during the period of distribution.

If, in connection with the offering of Securities at a fixed price or prices, the underwriters have made a bona fide effort to sell all of the Securities at the initial offering price fixed in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, the offering price may be decreased and thereafter further changed, from time to time, to an amount not greater than the initial offering price fixed in such Prospectus Supplement, in which case the compensation realized by the underwriters will be decreased by the amount that the aggregate price paid by purchasers for the Securities is less than the gross proceeds paid by the underwriters to the Company.

------

Any offering of Debt Securities, Subscription Receipts, Warrants or Units will be a new issue of Securities with no established trading market. Unless otherwise specified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, Debt Securities, Subscription Receipts, Warrants and Units will not be listed on any securities exchange. There is no market through which the Securities, other than the Common Shares, may be sold and purchasers may not be able to resell such Securities purchased under this Prospectus and any applicable Prospectus Supplement. This may affect the pricing of such Securities in the secondary market, the transparency and availability of trading prices, the liquidity of such Securities, and the extent of issuer regulation. See "Risk Factors".

Underwriters, dealers or agents may make sales of Securities in privately negotiated transactions and/or any other method permitted by law, including sales deemed to be an "at-the-market distribution" and subject to limitations imposed by and the terms of any regulatory approvals required and obtained under, applicable Canadian securities laws, which includes sales made directly on an existing trading market for the Common Shares, or sales made to or through a market maker other than on an exchange. In connection with any offering of Securities, except with respect to "at-the-market distributions" or as otherwise set out in a Prospectus Supplement relating to a particular offering of Securities, the underwriters, dealers or agents may over-allot or effect transactions which are intended to stabilize or maintain the market price of the offered Securities at a level other than that which might otherwise prevail in the open market. Such transactions may be commenced, interrupted or discontinued at any time. No underwriter, dealer or agent involved in an "at-the-market distribution", no affiliate of such an underwriter, dealer or agent and no person or company acting jointly or in concert with such an underwriter, dealer or agent may, in connection with the distribution, enter into any transaction that is intended to stabilize or maintain the market price of the Securities distributed, including selling an aggregate number or principal amount of Securities that would result in the underwriter, dealer or agent creating an over-allocation position in the Securities distributed.

If underwriters or dealers purchase Securities as principals, the Securities will be acquired by the underwriters or dealers for their own account and may be resold from time to time in one or more transactions, including negotiated transactions, at a fixed offering price or at varying prices determined at the time of sale. The obligations of the underwriters or dealers to purchase those Securities will be subject to certain conditions precedent, and the underwriters or dealers will be obligated to purchase all the Securities offered by the Prospectus Supplement if any of such Securities are purchased. If agents are used in an offering, unless otherwise indicated in the Prospectus Supplement, such agents will be acting on a "best efforts" basis for the period of their appointment. Any offering price and any discounts or concessions allowed or re-allowed or paid may be changed from time to time.

Under agreements which may be entered into by the Company, underwriters, dealers and agents who participate in the distribution of Securities may be entitled to indemnification by the Company against certain liabilities, including liabilities under securities legislation, or to contribution with respect to payments which such underwriters, dealers or agents may be required to make in respect thereof. Such underwriters, dealers and agents may be customers of, engage in transactions with, or perform services for, the Company in the ordinary course of business.

**USE OF PROCEEDS** 

Unless otherwise indicated in a Prospectus Supplement, we currently expect to use the net proceeds from the sale of Securities to fund our capital commitments to the West Slope Project, Velvet-Wood Project, the Slick Rock Project, and Shootaring Canyon Mill along with other potential capital projects, acquisitions, general corporate purposes, and for working capital – meaning current assets minus current liabilities. Specific information about the use of the net proceeds to the Company of any offering of Securities under this Prospectus and the specific business objectives which the Company expects to accomplish with such proceeds will be set forth in the applicable Prospectus Supplement relating to that offering of Securities.

There may be circumstances where, based on results obtained or for other sound business reasons, a reallocation of funds may be necessary or prudent. Accordingly, management of the Company will have broad discretion in the application of the net proceeds of an offering of Securities. The actual amount that the Company spends in connection with each intended use of proceeds may vary significantly from the amounts specified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement and will depend on a number of factors, including those referred to under "Risk Factors" in this Prospectus and in the documents incorporated by reference herein and any other factors set forth in the applicable Prospectus Supplement. The Company may invest funds which it does not immediately use. Such investments may include short-term marketable investment grade securities denominated in United States dollars,

------

Canadian dollars or other currencies. The Company may, from time to time, issue securities (including debt securities) other than pursuant to this Prospectus.

Any specific allocation of the net proceeds of an offering to a specific purpose will be determined at the time of the offering and will be described in the relevant Prospectus Supplement. To date, the Company has not generated revenues from operations. The Company had total comprehensive loss of $8,072,359 and accumulated a deficit of $84,544,667 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024. As a result, the Company may need to allocate a portion of its existing working capital or a portion of the proceeds of any offering of Securities to fund any such net loss in future periods. See "Risk Factors – Negative Operating Cash Flows".

**TRADING PRICE AND VOLUME** 

The outstanding Common Shares are listed and posted for trading in Canada on the TSXV under the symbol "AEC", in the United States on Nasdaq under the symbol "AEC" and in Germany on the FSE under the trading symbol "0AD". Trading prices and volumes of the Common Shares for the previous 12-month period will be provided, as required, in each Prospectus Supplement.

**PRIOR SALES** 

Information in respect of prior sales of Common Shares and other Securities distributed under this Prospectus and for securities that are convertible into or exchangeable for Common Shares or such other Securities within the previous 12-month period will be provided, as required, in a Prospectus Supplement with respect to the issuance of Common Shares and/or other Securities pursuant to such Prospectus Supplement.

**CERTAIN INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS** 

Owning any of the Securities may subject holders to tax consequences. The applicable Prospectus Supplement may describe certain material Canadian federal income tax considerations generally applicable to investors described therein of the acquisition, ownership and disposition of any Securities offered thereunder. The applicable Prospectus Supplement may describe certain United States federal income tax considerations generally applicable to investors described therein who are U.S. persons (within the meaning of the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended) of the acquisition, ownership and disposition of any Securities offered thereunder. Prospective investors should consult their own tax advisors prior to deciding to purchase any of the Securities.

**RISK FACTORS** 

An investment in the Securities is speculative and subject to a number of risks, including those set forth below and in the Company's then-current AIF and in the then-current management's discussion and analysis for our most recently completed financial year period and interim financial period, if applicable. Additional risk factors relating to a specific offering of Securities will be described in the applicable Prospectus Supplement.

Prospective investors should carefully consider these risks, in addition to the information contained and incorporated by reference herein and in the Prospectus Supplement relating to an offering and the information incorporated by reference therein, before purchasing Securities. Some of the risk factors described herein and in the documents incorporated by reference herein (including subsequently filed documents incorporated by reference herein), including the applicable Prospectus Supplement are interrelated and, consequently, investors should treat such risk factors as a whole. If any of the events identified in these risks and uncertainties were to actually occur, it could have a material adverse effect on the business, assets, financial condition, results of operations or prospects of the Company. These are not the only risks and uncertainties that the Company faces. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to the Company or that are currently considered immaterial may also have a material adverse effect on the business, assets, financial condition, results of operations or prospects of the Company. The Company cannot assure you that it will successfully address any or all of these risks. There is no assurance that any risk management steps taken will avoid future loss due to the occurrence of the risks described in this Prospectus or the applicable Prospectus Supplement or the documents incorporated by reference herein and therein or other unforeseen risks.

------

*Liquidity and Capital Resources* 

Historically, capital requirements have been primarily funded through the sale of Common Shares. Factors that could affect the availability of financing include the progress and results of ongoing exploration at the Company's mineral properties, the state of international debt and equity markets and investor perceptions and expectations of the global market for uranium and vanadium and its derivatives. There can be no assurance that such financing will be available in the amount required at any time or for any period or, if available, that it can be obtained on terms satisfactory to the Company. Based on the amount of funding raised, the Company's planned exploration, development or other work programs may be postponed, or otherwise revised, as necessary.

*There is No Market for the Securities* 

Unless otherwise specified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, Debt Securities, Subscription Receipts, Warrants and Units will not be listed on any securities exchange. There is no market through which the Securities, other than the Common Shares, may be sold and purchasers may not be able to resell such Securities purchased under this Prospectus and any applicable Prospectus Supplement. This may affect the pricing of such Securities in the secondary market, the transparency and availability of trading prices, the liquidity of such Securities, and the extent of issuer regulation.

*Dilution from Further Financings* 

The Company may need to raise additional financing in the future through the issuance of additional equity securities or convertible debt securities. If the Company raises additional funding by issuing additional equity securities or convertible debt securities, such financings may substantially dilute the interests of shareholders of the Company and reduce the value of their investment and the value of the Company's securities.

*Active Liquid Market for Common Shares and Market Price of Securities* 

There may not be an active, liquid market for the Common Shares. There is no guarantee that an active trading market for the Common Shares will be maintained on the TSXV and/or the Nasdaq. Investors may not be able to sell their Common Shares quickly or at the latest market price if trading in the Common Shares is not active.

Securities markets have a high level of price and volume volatility, and the market price of securities of many companies have experienced wide fluctuations in price which have not necessarily been related to the operating performance, underlying asset values or prospects of such companies. Securities of companies with small capitalization have experienced substantial volatility in the past, often based on factors unrelated to the financial performance or prospects of the companies involved. These risk factors included global economic and trade developments and market perceptions of the attractiveness of certain industries. There can be no assurance that continuing fluctuations in price will not occur. In addition, from time to time, the stock market experiences significant price and volume volatility that may affect the market price of the Common Shares for reasons unrelated to the Company's performance.

Other factors unrelated to the performance of the Company that may have an effect on the price of Common Shares include the following: lessening in trading volume and general market interest in the Company's securities may affect a purchaser's ability to trade significant numbers of Common Shares; and the size of the Company's public float may limit the ability of some institutions to invest in the Company's securities. The price per Common Share may be adversely affected by a variety of factors relating to the Company's business, including fluctuation in the Company's operating and financial results, the result of any public announcement made by the Company and the Company's failure to meet analysts' expectations. Additionally, the value of the Common Shares is subject to market value fluctuations based upon factors that influence the Company's activity and changes in interest and currency rates.

The market value of the Common Shares may also be affected by the Company's financial results and political, economic, financial, and other factors that can affect the capital markets generally, the stock exchanges on which the Common Shares are traded and the market segment of which the Company is a part.

------

*The Company May Be Impacted by Inflationary Pressures* 

General inflationary pressures may affect labor and other costs, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations and the capital expenditures required to advance the Company's business plans. There can be no assurance that any governmental action taken to control inflationary or deflationary cycles will be effective or whether any governmental action may contribute to economic uncertainty. Governmental action to address inflation or deflation may also affect currency values. Accordingly, inflation and any governmental response thereto may have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, results of operations, cash flow, financial condition and the price of the Company's securities.

*Discretion in the Use of Proceeds* 

Management will have broad discretion concerning the use of the net proceeds from the offering of any Securities, as well as the timing of their expenditures. Depending on fluctuations in prices and other factors, the intended use of net proceeds from the offering of any Securities may change. As a result, an investor will be relying on the judgment of management for the application of the net proceeds from the offering of any Securities. Management may use the net proceeds from the offering of any Securities in ways that an investor may not consider desirable if they believe it would be in the best interests of the Company to do so. The results and the effectiveness of the application of proceeds from an offering of any Securities are uncertain. If the proceeds are not applied effectively, the Company's business, financial condition, results of operations or prospects may suffer.

*Negative Operating Cash Flows* 

Given that none of the Company's properties have yet to enter commercial production and generate cash flow, the Company had negative operating cash flow for its fiscal period ended December 31, 2024. To the extent that the Company has negative cash flow in future periods, the Company may need to deploy a portion of its cash reserves or a portion of the proceeds of any offering of Securities to fund such negative cash flow could adversely impact the Company's business, financial condition and profitability.

*If we are unable to satisfy the requirements of Sarbanes-Oxley or our internal controls over financial reporting are not effective, the reliability of our financial statements may be questioned.* 

We are subject to the requirements of Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as amended ("**Sarbanes-Oxley**"). Section 404 of Sarbanes-Oxley ("**Section 404**") requires companies subject to the reporting requirements of United States securities laws to complete a comprehensive evaluation of their internal controls over financial reporting. To comply with this statute, we are required to document and test our internal control procedures and our management will be required to assess and issue a report concerning our internal controls over financial reporting. Pursuant to the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, as amended ("**JOBS Act**"), we are classified as an "emerging growth company." Under the JOBS Act, emerging growth companies are exempt from certain reporting requirements, including the independent auditor attestation requirements of Section 404(b) of Sarbanes-Oxley. Under this exemption, our independent auditor is not be required to attest to and report on management's assessment of our internal controls over financial reporting during a five-year transition period, except in the event this is accelerated if we lose our status as an "emerging growth company". We will need to prepare for compliance with Section 404 by strengthening, assessing and testing our system of internal controls to provide the basis for our report. However, the continuous process of strengthening our internal controls and complying with Section 404 is complicated and time-consuming. Furthermore, we believe that our business will grow both domestically and internationally, organically and through acquisitions, in which case our internal controls will become more complex and will require significantly more resources and attention to ensure our internal controls remain effective overall. During the course of our testing, management may identify material weaknesses or significant deficiencies, which may not be remedied in a timely manner to meet the deadline imposed by Sarbanes-Oxley. If management cannot favorably assess the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting, or our independent registered public accounting firm identifies material weaknesses in our internal controls, investor confidence in our financial results may weaken, and the market price of our securities may suffer.

------

*In connection with the Nasdaq listing of the Common Shares, as a foreign private issuer, we are permitted to follow certain home country corporate governance practices instead of certain Nasdaq corporate governance requirements applicable to United States domestic companies* 

As a foreign private issuer, we are permitted to follow certain home country corporate governance practices rather than those of the Nasdaq, provided that we disclose the requirements we are not following and describe the home country practices we are following. Currently, we follow certain home country corporate governance practices instead of those otherwise required under the Nasdaq rules for United States issuers, including practices in lieu of the Nasdaq requirements to (i) adopt a majority independent board of directors, (ii) adopt formal audit committee, compensation committee and nomination committee charters, (iii) adopt one or more codes of conduct, (iv) hold regularly scheduled meetings at which only independent directors are present and (v) have by-laws providing for a quorum of at least 33 1/3 percent of the outstanding Common Shares.

Any foreign private issuer exemptions we avail ourselves of in the future may reduce the scope of information and protection to which you are otherwise entitled as an investor. As result, our shareholders may not have the same protections afforded to shareholders of companies that are subject to all of the Nasdaq corporate governance requirements.

*We will incur significantly increased costs and devote substantial management time as a result of operating as a United States public company* 

As a United States public company, we will incur significant legal, accounting and other expenses that we did not incur as a private company or as a Canadian public company. For example, we will be subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, and will be required to comply with the applicable requirements of Sarbanes-Oxley and the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, as well as rules and regulations subsequently implemented by the SEC and the including the establishment and maintenance of effective disclosure and financial controls and changes in corporate governance practices. We expect that compliance with these requirements will increase our legal and financial compliance costs and will make some activities more time consuming and costly. In addition, we expect that management and other personnel will need to divert attention from operational and other business matters to devote substantial time to these public company requirements. In particular, we expect to incur significant expenses and devote substantial management effort toward ensuring compliance with the requirements of Section 404, which involve annual assessments of a company's internal controls over financial reporting. We plan to hire additional accounting and financial staff with appropriate public company experience and technical accounting knowledge and may need to establish an internal audit function. Furthermore, we expect the premium for director & officer insurance will increase significantly due to a more litigious environment in the United States. At this time, we cannot reasonably predict or estimate the amount of additional costs that we may incur as a result of becoming a United States public company or the timing of such costs.

*We may lose foreign private issuer status in the future, which could result in significant additional costs and expenses* 

We may in the future lose foreign private issuer status if a majority of the Common Shares are held in the United States and if we fail to meet the additional requirements necessary to avoid loss of foreign private issuer status, such as if: (i) a majority of the directors or executive officers are United States citizens or residents; (ii) a majority of assets are located in the United States; or (iii) the business is administered principally in the United States. The regulatory and compliance costs to us under United States securities laws as a United States domestic issuer will be significantly more than the costs incurred as an SEC foreign private issuer. If we are not a foreign private issuer, we would be required to file periodic and current reports and registration statements on United States domestic issuer forms with the SEC, which are generally more detailed and extensive than the forms available to foreign private issuers. In addition, we may lose the ability to rely upon exemptions from corporate governance requirements that are available to foreign private issuers.

*We expect that we will be considered a passive foreign investment company or "PFIC", which may result in adverse tax consequences for United States taxpayers* 

Holders of Common Shares that are United States taxpayers should be aware that we believe we were a "passive foreign investment company" (a "**PFIC**") during our most recently completed tax year and, due to the nature of our assets and

------

the income that we expect to generate, we expect to be a PFIC for the current tax year, and may be a PFIC in subsequent tax years. Whether we will be a PFIC for the current tax year or any future tax year will depend on our assets and income over the course of each such taxable year and, as a result, cannot be predicted with certainty as of the date of this document. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the Internal Revenue Service will not challenge the determination made by us concerning our PFIC status for any tax year. If we are a PFIC for any year during a United States taxpayer's holding period of the Common Shares, then such United States taxpayer generally will be required to treat any gain realized upon a disposition of its Common Shares, or any "excess distribution" received on its Common Shares, as ordinary income, and to pay an interest charge on a portion of such gain or distribution. In certain circumstances, the sum of the tax and the interest charge may exceed the total amount of proceeds realized on the disposition, or the amount of excess distribution received, by the United States taxpayer. Subject to certain limitations, these adverse tax consequences may be mitigated if the United States taxpayer makes a timely and effective "qualified electing fund" election ("**QEF Election**") or a "mark-to-market" election with respect to the Common Shares. A United States taxpayer who makes a QEF Election generally must report on a current basis its share of our net capital gain and ordinary earnings for any year in which we are a PFIC, whether or not we distribute any amounts to our shareholders. A United States taxpayer who makes a mark-to-market election generally must include as ordinary income each year the excess of the fair market value of the Common Shares over the taxpayer's adjusted tax basis therein. Holders of Common Shares should consult their own tax advisors regarding the ownership and disposition of our Common Shares.

**PART II** 

**INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED TO BE DELIVERED TO** 

**OFFEREES OR PURCHASERS** 

**Indemnification of Directors and Officers** 

Section 160 of the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) ("BCBCA") provides that a company may do one or both of the following:

(a) indemnify an eligible party (as defined below) against all eligible penalties (as defined below) to which
the eligible party is or may be liable;

(b) after the final disposition of an eligible proceeding (as defined below), pay the expenses (which includes
costs, charges and expenses (including legal and other fees) but excludes judgments, penalties, fines or amounts paid in settlement of a proceeding) actually and reasonably incurred by an eligible party in respect of that proceeding.

However, after the final disposition of an eligible proceeding, a company must pay the expenses actually and reasonably incurred by an eligible party in respect of that proceeding if the eligible party: (i) has not been reimbursed for those expenses; and (ii) is wholly successful, on the merits or otherwise, or is substantially successful on the merits, in the outcome of the proceeding. The BCBCA also provides that a company may pay the expenses, actually and reasonably incurred by an eligible party, as they are incurred in advance of the final disposition of an eligible proceeding if the company first receives from the eligible party a written undertaking that, if it is ultimately determined that the payment of expenses is prohibited under the BCBCA, the eligible party will repay the amounts advanced.

For the purposes of the applicable division of the BCBCA, an "eligible party", in relation to a company, means an individual who:

(c) is or was a director, alternate director or officer of the company;

(d) is or was a director, alternate director or officer of another corporation at a time when the corporation is
or was an affiliate of the company, or at the request of the company; or

------

(e) at the request of the company, is or was, or holds or held a position equivalent to that of, a director,
alternate director or officer of a partnership, trust, joint venture or other unincorporated entity, and includes, with some exceptions, the heirs and personal or other legal representatives of that individual.

An "eligible penalty" under the BCBCA means a judgment, penalty or fine awarded or imposed in, or an amount paid in settlement of, an eligible proceeding.

An "eligible proceeding" under the BCBCA is a proceeding in which an eligible party or any of the heirs and personal or other legal representatives of the eligible party, by reason of the eligible party being or having been a director or officer of, or holding or having held a position equivalent to that of a director or officer of, the company or an associated corporation, is or may be joined as a party, or is or may be liable for or in respect of a judgment, penalty or fine in, or expenses related to, the proceeding. A "proceeding" includes any legal proceeding or investigative action, whether current, threatened, pending or completed. "Expenses" include costs, charges and expenses, including legal and other fees, but does not include judgments, penalties, fines or amounts paid in settlement of a proceeding. An "associated corporation" means a corporation or entity referred to in paragraph (b) or (c) of the definition of "eligible party" above.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the BCBCA prohibits a company from indemnifying an eligible party or paying the expenses of an eligible party if any of the following circumstances apply:

(a) if the indemnity or payment is made under an earlier agreement to indemnify or pay expenses and, at the time
such agreement was made, the company was prohibited from giving the indemnity or paying the expenses by its memorandum or articles;

(b) if the indemnity or payment is made otherwise than under an earlier agreement to indemnify or pay expenses
and, at the time that the indemnity or payment is made, the company is prohibited from giving the indemnity or paying the expenses by its memorandum or articles;

(c) if, in relation to the subject matter of the eligible proceeding, the eligible party did not act honestly
and in good faith with a view to the best interest of the company or the associated corporation, as the case may be; or

(d) in the case of an eligible proceeding other than a civil proceeding, if the eligible party did not have
reasonable grounds for believing that the eligible party's conduct in respect of which the proceeding was brought was lawful.

Additionally, if an eligible proceeding is brought against an eligible party by or on behalf of the company or an associated corporation, the company must not indemnify the eligible party or pay or advance the expenses of the eligible party in respect of the proceeding.

Whether or not payment of expenses or indemnification has been sought, authorized or declined under the BCBCA, section 164 of the BCBCA provides that, on the application of a company or an eligible party, the Supreme Court of British Columbia may do one or more of the following:

(f) order a company to indemnify an eligible party against any liabilities incurred by the eligible party in
respect of an eligible proceeding;

(g) order a company to pay some or all of the expenses incurred by an eligible party in respect of an eligible
proceeding;

(h) order the enforcement of, or any payment under, an agreement of indemnification entered into by a company;

(i) order a company to pay some or all of the expenses actually and reasonably incurred by any person in
obtaining an order under section 164; or

(j) make any other order the court considers appropriate.

The BCBCA provides that a company may purchase and maintain insurance for the benefit of an eligible party or the heirs and personal or other legal representatives of the eligible party against any liability that may be incurred by reason of the eligible party being or having been a director or officer of, or holding or having held a position equivalent to that of a director or officer of, the company or an associated corporation.

The Registrant's articles provide that the Registrant must, subject to the BCBCA, indemnify each eligible party and the heirs and legal personal representatives

------

of each eligible party against all eligible penalties to which such person is or may be liable, and the Company must, after the final disposition of an eligible proceeding, pay the expenses actually and reasonably incurred by such person in respect of that proceeding. Each eligible party is deemed to have contracted with the Company on the terms of the indemnity contained in the Registrant's articles.

The Registrant's articles define "eligible penalty" to mean a judgment, penalty or fine awarded or imposed in, or an amount paid in settlement of, an eligible proceeding. "Eligible proceeding" under the Registrant's articles means a legal proceeding in which an eligible party or any of the heirs and personal or other legal representatives of the eligible party, by reason of the eligible party being or having been a director, alternate director or officer of, or holding or having held a position equivalent to that of a director, alternate director or officer of, the Company or an associated corporation (a) is or may be joined as a party, or (b) is or may be liable for or in respect of a judgment, penalty, or fine in, or expenses related to, the proceeding.

The Registrant's articles further provide that the Company may, subject to any restrictions in the BCBCA, indemnify any person and that the failure of a director, alternate director or officer of the Company to comply with the BCBCA or the Registrant's articles does not invalidate any indemnity to which he or she is entitled under the Registrant's articles.

The Registrant is authorized by its articles to purchase and maintain insurance for the benefit of any eligible party (or his or her heirs or legal personal representatives) against any liability incurred by any third party.

\* \* \*

**Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, the Registrant has been informed that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act, and is therefore unenforceable.**

**FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS** 

Certain of the statements made and information contained herein is "forward-looking information" within the meaning of applicable Canadian securities legislation. These statements relate to future events or the Company's future performance. All statements, other than statements of historical fact, may be forward- looking statements. Information concerning mineral resource and mineral reserve estimates also may be deemed to be forward-looking statements in that it reflects a prediction of mineralization that would be encountered if a mineral deposit were developed and mined. Forward-looking statements are often, but not always, identified by the use of words such as "seek", "anticipate", "plan", "continue", "estimate", "expect", "may", "will", "project", "predict", "propose", "potential", "targeting", "intend", "could", "might", "should", "believe" and similar expressions.

Readers are cautioned that the foregoing lists of factors are not exhaustive. The forward-looking statements contained in this AIF are expressly qualified by this cautionary statement. The Company does not undertake any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.

**DEFINITIONS AND OTHER INFORMATION** 

**References** 

References in this annual information form ("AIF") to "Anfield" or the "Company" refer to Anfield Energy Inc., and its subsidiaries (as the context requires).

**Currency** 

All sums of money which are referred to herein are expressed in Canadian dollars, unless otherwise specified. References to United States dollars are referred to as "US$".

**Technical Disclosure** 

This AIF contains disclosure regarding the Company's mineral resources. Mineral resources are not mineral reserves, and do not have demonstrated economic viability, but do have reasonable prospects for economic extraction. Measured and indicated mineral resources are sufficiently well defined to allow geological and grade continuity to be reasonably assumed and permit the application of technical and economic parameters in assessing the economic viability of the mineral resource. Inferred mineral resources are estimated on limited information not sufficient to verify geological and grade continuity or to allow technical and economic parameters to be applied. Inferred mineral resources are too speculative geologically to have economic considerations applied to them to enable them to be categorized as mineral reserves. There is no certainty that mineral resources of any classification can be upgraded to mineral reserves through continued exploration.

The Company's mineral resource figures are estimates and the Company can provide no assurances that the indicated levels of mineral will be produced. Such estimates are expressions of judgment based on knowledge, mining experience, analysis of drilling results and industry practices. Valid estimates made at

------

a given time may significantly change when new information becomes available. While the Company believes that these mineral resource estimates are well established and the best estimates of the Company's management, by their nature mineral resource estimates are imprecise and depend, to a certain extent, upon the analysis of drilling results and statistical inferences which may ultimately prove unreliable. If the Company's mineral resource estimates are inaccurate or are reduced in the future, this could have an adverse effect on the Company's future cash flows, earnings, results of operations and financial condition.

**Note to US Investors Concerning Technical Disclosure** 

This AIF has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the securities laws in effect in Canada, which differ from the requirements of the United States of America ("United States" or "US") securities laws. As a result, the Company reports the mineral reserves and resources of the projects it has an interest in according to Canadian standards. Canadian reporting requirements for disclosure of mineral properties are governed by, and utilize definitions required by, National Instrument 43-101 - *Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects* ("NI 43-101") and the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (the "CIM") – CIM Definition Standards on Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves, adopted by the CIM Council, as amended (the "CIM Standards"). These requirements and definitions differ from those adopted by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") under subpart 1300 of Regulation S-K ("S-K 1300") of the United States Securities Act of 1933 that are applicable to United States companies. Accordingly, descriptions of mineralization and estimates of mineral reserves and mineral resources under Canadian standards included or incorporated by reference in this AIF may not be comparable to similar information reported by United States companies subject to the reporting and disclosure requirements of S-K 1300. Unless otherwise stated, the technical disclosure in this AIF is derived from and in some instances is an extract from, the technical reports prepared for those properties in accordance with NI 43-101.

***Trends and Outlook***

The Company intends to focus its business activity in the near term on advancing its conventional uranium and vanadium portfolio closer to production. This includes updating its radioactive materials license at the Shootaring Canyon Mill (the "Radioactive Materials License"), determining economics for its West Slope Project and, uranium price permitting, advancing both its Velvet-Wood Project and Slick Rock Project.

At the Velvet-Wood Project and Slick Rock Project, the Company engaged consultants to provide a combined PEA and to complete a mine plan as the current uranium price has reached a high-enough level to make such a pursuit economically viable.

At the Shootaring Canyon Mill, the Company is updating its Radioactive Materials License in order to update the license from its current "standby status" to "operational status".

At the West Slope Project, the Company is pursing a PEA for four of the nine mines held within the West Slope Project portfolio.

**DESCRIBE THE BUSINESS** 

**Risk Factors** 

The Company is in the business of acquiring and developing uranium properties. It is exposed to a number of risks and uncertainties that are common to other mineral development companies in the same business. The industry is capital intensive at all stages and is subjected to variations in commodity prices, market sentiment, exchange rates for currency, inflations and other risks. The Company currently has no source of revenue. The Company will rely mainly on equity financing to fund development activities on its mineral properties. An investment in the Company's securities is highly speculative and subject to a number of risks at any given time. The following is a description of the principal risk factors affecting the Company.

*Financial Risks* 

The Company's financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, deposits and accounts payable and accrued liabilities. The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, deposits, and accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their fair values due to the relatively short period to maturity of those financial instruments.

------

The Company is exposed to credit risk with respect to its cash and cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents have been placed on deposit with a major Canadian financial institution.

Foreign exchange risk is the risk arising from changes in foreign currency fluctuations. The Company does not use any derivative instruments to reduce its exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency rates.

Other price risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices, other than those arising from interest rate risk or currency risk. The Company is not exposed to significant other price risk.

Liquidity risk is the risk that an entity will encounter difficulty in raising funds to meet commitments associated with financial instruments. The Company manages liquidity by maintaining adequate cash balances to meet liabilities as they become due. The Company's expected source of cash flow in the upcoming year will be through equity financings.

*Financing Risks* 

The Company's operations are capital intensive and future capital expenditures are expected to be substantial. The Company will require significant additional financing to fund its operations, including acquiring additional mineral projects and continuing with its exploration and pre-extraction activities which include assaying, drilling, geological and geochemical analysis and mine construction costs. The Company has no history of earnings and no source of operating cash flow and, due to the nature of its business, there can be no assurance that the Company will be profitable. The Company has paid no dividends on its Shares since incorporation and does not anticipate doing so in the foreseeable future.

The only present source of funds available to the Company is through the sale of its equity shares. Even if the results of development are encouraging, the Company may not have sufficient funds to conduct the further development that may be necessary to determine whether or not a commercially mineable deposit exists. While the Company may generate additional working capital through further equity offerings or through the sale or possible syndication of its property, there is no assurance that any such funds will be available. If available, future equity financings may result in substantial dilution to purchasers under an offering. In the absence of such additional financing, the Company would not be able to fund its operations or continue with its exploration and pre-extraction activities, which may result in delays, curtailment or abandonment of any one or all of its projects. At present it is impossible to determine what amounts of additional funds, if any, may be required.

*Going Concern* 

The Company's capability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to obtain additional debt or equity financing to meet its obligations as they come due. If the Company were unable to continue as a going concern, then significant adjustments would be required to the carrying value of assets and liabilities, and to the balance sheet classifications currently used.

The Company has no history of profitable operations, and its present business is at an early stage. As such, the Company is subject to many risks common to other companies in the same business, including under- capitalization, cash shortages, and limitations with respect to personnel, financial and other resources and the lack of revenues.

The Company may consider plans to obtain financing in the future primarily through further equity financing or debt financing, as well as through joint venturing and/or optioning out the Company's properties to qualified mineral exploration companies. There can be no assurance that the Company will succeed in obtaining additional financing, now or in the future. Failure to raise additional financing on a timely basis could cause the Company to suspend its operation and eventually to forfeit or sell its interest in its exploration and evaluation assets.

------

Management has initiated a strict cost control program to effectively control expenditures. In addition, management will review several funding options including equity financing and seeking joint venture partners to further its mineral property interests at the appropriate time. While the Company has been successful in raising funds in the past, there are no assurances that additional funding and/or suitable joint venture agreements will be obtained.

*Development Risks* 

The mining industry in general is intensely competitive and there is no assurance that, even if commercial quantities of ore are discovered, a profitable market may not exist for the sale of uranium produced by the Company. The Company's competition includes larger, more established companies with longer operating histories that not only explore for and produce uranium, but also market uranium and other products on a regional, national or worldwide basis. Due to their greater financial and technical resources, the Company may not be able to acquire additional uranium projects in a competitive bidding process involving such companies. Additionally, these larger companies have greater resources to continue with their operations during periods of depressed market conditions.

Additionally, the marketability of any uranium or vanadium which may be acquired or discovered by the Company may be affected by numerous factors which are beyond the control of the Company and which cannot be accurately predicted, such as macroeconomic factors, market fluctuations, the proximity and capacity of milling facilities, mineral markets and processing equipment, land tenure and use, and such other factors as government regulations, including regulations relating to royalties, allowable production, importing and exporting of uranium or vanadium, and environmental protection. The future effects of these factors cannot be accurately predicted, but any one or a combination of these factors may result in the Company's inability to receive an adequate return on its invested capital. Uranium prices have been depressed in recent years, but there has been recent improvement.

*Mining Risks* 

The business of developing mines involves a high degree of risk. Few properties that are explored are ultimately developed into producing mines. Unusual or unexpected formations, formation pressures, fires, power outages, labour disruptions, flooding, explorations, cave-ins, landslides and the inability to obtain suitable adequate machinery, equipment or labour are other risks involved in the operation of mines and the conduct of exploration programs. The Company has relied on and may continue to rely upon consultants and others for development expertise. Substantial expenditures are required to establish ore reserves through drilling, to develop processes to extract the metal from the ore and, in the case of new properties, to develop the mining and processing facilities and infrastructure at any site chosen for mining. Although substantial benefits may be derived from the discovery of a major mineral deposit, no assurance can be given that minerals will be discovered in sufficient quantities to justify commercial operations or that funds required for development can be obtained on a timely basis. The economics of developing uranium and vanadium properties is affected by many factors including the cost of operations, variations in the grade of ore mined, fluctuations in metal markets, costs of processing equipment and such other factors as government regulations, including regulations relating to royalties, allowable production, importing and exporting of minerals and environmental protection. The Company has no producing mines at this time. Most exploration projects do not result in the discovery of commercially mineable deposits of ore. Whether an ore body contains commercially recoverable material depends on many factors including, without limitation: (i) the particular attributes, including material changes to those attributes, of the ore body such as size, grade, recovery rates and proximity to infrastructure; (ii) the market price of uranium or vanadium, which may be volatile; and (iii) government regulations and regulatory requirements including, without limitation, those relating to environmental protection, permitting and land use, taxes, land tenure and transportation.

------

*Subject to Influential Political and Regulatory Factors* 

The uranium and vanadium industry are subject to influential political and regulatory factors which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business and financial condition. The international uranium industry, including the supply of uranium concentrates, is relatively small, competitive and heavily regulated. Worldwide demand for uranium is directly tied to the demand for electricity produced by the nuclear power industry, which is also subject to extensive government regulation and policies. In addition, the international marketing and trade of uranium is subject to political changes in governmental policies, regulatory requirements and international trade restrictions (including trade agreements, customs, duties and/or taxes). International agreements, governmental policies and trade restrictions are beyond the Company's control. Changes in regulatory requirements, customs, duties or taxes may affect the availability of uranium, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business and financial condition.

*Political Uncertainty* 

Political, legal, and regulatory changes in Canada and the US, and other countries can impact the Company's operations and business performance. In 2024 and in 2025 to date, there were national elections in several of the world's largest economies, including Japan, India, the European Union, France, the United Kingdom, Mexico, the US, Canada and Germany. These elections have brought, or may bring, new political leadership with substantially different political, social, and economic policy priorities than their predecessors on both domestic and foreign policy matters, including the environment, trade and tariffs, and energy. These political shifts may create uncertainty about future government policies, regulations, and trade relationships between major global economies which could result in broad-based volatility and decreased investor confidence.

Political risks faced by the Company that could impact its operations or planned operation include:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● changes in government policy and regulations;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● new interpretations of existing laws;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● implementation of new, or expansion of existing, tariffs on exported and/or imported products;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● opposition from government or other political actors to industrial activities;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● extended regulatory review periods and third-party consultation requirements;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● delays or denials of necessary permits and licenses; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● disruption of critical third-party infrastructure and supply chains.

Changing environmental regulations pose additional challenges. Changes in assessment processes and expanding stakeholder consultation requirements and expectations, including with stakeholders, may extend project timelines, increase compliance costs, increase project execution risk and limit business opportunities.

Other potential governmental impacts include:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● tax increases;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● higher government royalty rates, including possible retroactive claims;

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● new efficiency standards;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● alternative fuel mandates;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● tax and other subsidies for competing energy sources; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● government support for research into, and mandated uses of, alternative energy technologies.

These government initiatives, particularly those promoting emissions reductions and alternative energy sources, could reduce demand for the Company's future products.

*Loss of Interest in and Value of Properties* 

The Company's ability to maintain its interests in its mineral properties and to fund ongoing development costs will be entirely dependent on its ability to raise additional funds by equity or debt financings. If the Company is unable to raise such funds it may suffer dilution or loss of its interest in its mineral properties. The amounts attributed to the Company's interests in mineral properties in its financial statements represent acquisition and exploration costs, and should not be taken to reflect realizable value.

*Uninsurable Risks* 

In the course of exploration, development and production of mineral properties, certain risks, and in particular, unexpected or unusual geological operating conditions including rock bursts, cave-ins, fires, flooding and earthquakes may occur. It is not always possible to fully insure against such risks and the Company may decide not to take out insurance against such risks as a result of high premiums or other reasons. Should such liabilities arise, they could reduce or eliminate any future profitability and result in increasing costs and a decline in the value of the securities of the Company.

*Environmental and Other Regulatory Requirements* 

Existing and possible future environmental legislation, regulations and actions could cause significant expense, capital expenditures, restrictions and delays in the activities of the Company, the extent of which cannot be predicted and which may well be beyond the capacity of the Company to fund. The Company's right to exploit the mining properties is subject to various reporting requirements and to obtaining certain government approvals and there is no assurance that such approvals, including environmental approvals, will be obtained without inordinate delay or at all.

*No Assurances of Titles, Boundaries or Surface Rights* 

The Company has investigated rights of ownership of all of the mineral properties in which it has an interest and, to the best of its knowledge, all agreements relating to such ownership rights are in good standing. However, all properties may be subject to prior claims or agreement transfers, and rights of ownership may be affected by undetected defects. While to the best of the Company's knowledge, title to all properties in which it has the right to acquire an interest is in good standing, this should not be construed as a guarantee of title. Other parties may dispute title to the mining properties in which the Company has the right to acquire an interest. The properties may be subject to prior unregistered agreements or transfers or native land claims and title may be affected by undetected defects or the statutes referred to above.

*Permits and Licenses* 

The operations of the Company may require licenses and permits from various governmental authorities. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain or maintain all necessary licenses and permits that may be required to carry out exploration, development and mining operations at its projects.

------

*Acquisition Risks* 

From time to time the Company may examine opportunities to acquire additional mining assets and businesses. Any acquisition that the Company may choose to complete may be of a significant size, may change the scale of its business and operations and may expose it to new geographic, political, operating, financial and geological risks. The Company's success in its acquisition activities depends on its ability to identify suitable acquisition candidates, negotiate acceptable terms for any such acquisition and integrate the acquired operations successfully with those of the Company. Any acquisitions would be accompanied by risks which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business. For example: (i) there may be a significant change in commodity prices after the Company has committed to complete the transaction and established the purchase price or exchange ratio; (ii) a material ore body may prove to be below expectations; (iii) the Company may have difficulty integrating and assimilating the operations and personnel of any acquired companies, realizing anticipated synergies and maximizing the financial and strategic position of the combined enterprise and maintaining uniform standards, policies and controls across the organization; (iv) the integration of the acquired business or assets may disrupt the Company's ongoing business and relationships with employees, customers, suppliers and contractors; and (v) the acquired business or assets may have unknown liabilities which may be significant. In the event that the Company chooses to raise debt capital to finance any such acquisition, the Company's leverage will be increased. If the Company chooses to use equity as consideration for such acquisition, existing shareholders may suffer dilution. Alternatively, the Company may choose to finance any such acquisition with its existing resources. There can be no assurance that the Company would be successful in overcoming these risks or any other problems encountered in connection with such acquisitions.

*Reliance on Key Personnel* 

The nature of the business of the Company, the ability of the Company to continue its development activities and to thereby develop a competitive edge in the marketplace depends, in a large part, on the ability of the Company to attract and maintain qualified key management personnel. Competition for such personnel is intense, and there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to attract and retain such personnel. The development of the Company now and in the future, will depend on the efforts of key management figures, the loss of whom could have a material adverse effect on the Company. The Company does not currently maintain key-man life insurance on any of the key management employees.

*International Conflict* 

Although the Company's operations and properties are located in the US, the Company's operations and financial performance may be affected by international conflicts. Any conflicts, imposition of sanctions, outbreak of war into other countries or regions or other escalation may have a material adverse effect on the Company's operations due to, among other factors, the effect on the supply chain, diversion of resources to the conflict, and an increase in the Company's costs for fuel and other supplies used to carry out its exploration activities. Metal prices continue being impacted by economic and geopolitical concern. Recent hostilities in the Middle East and Europe, and the accompanying international response, has been disruptive to the world economy, with increased volatility in commodity markets, including higher oil and gasoline prices, international trade and financial markets, all of which have a trickle-down effect on supply chains, equipment and construction. There is material uncertainty about the extent to which this conflict will continue to impact economic and financial affairs, as the numerous issues arising from the conflict are in flux and there is the potential for escalation of the conflict both within Europe, the Middle East and globally.

------

The Company continues to monitor the situation, although there is no assurance the Company's operations will not be adversely affected by geopolitical tensions.

*Adverse Economic Conditions* 

Any credit crisis and related instability in the global financial system, has had, and may continue to have, an impact on the Company's business and the Company's financial condition. The Company may face significant challenges if conditions in the financial markets do not continue to improve. The Company's ability to access the capital markets may be severely restricted at a time when the Company wishes or needs to access such markets, which could have a materially adverse impact on the Company's flexibility to react to changing economic and business conditions or carry on our operations.

Market events and conditions, including the disruptions in the international credit markets and other financial systems and the deterioration of global economic conditions have caused significant volatility in commodity prices. These conditions also caused a loss of confidence in global credit and financial markets and resulted in the collapse of, and government intervention in, major banks, financial institutions and insurers and created a climate of greater volatility, less liquidity, widening of credit spreads, a lack of price transparency, increased credit losses and tighter credit conditions. The possibility of a global recession and attempts to control it may impact metals demand and prices. More recently, there has been mounting government debt in many western nations and significant volatility in the price of commodities. Further, the imposition of protectionist or retaliatory trade tariffs by countries may impact the Company's ability to import materials needed to conduct its operations, construct its projects, or to export its products at prices that are economically feasible.

These events are illustrative of the effect that events beyond the Company's control may have on commodity prices, demand for metals, availability of credit, investor confidence and general financial market liquidity, all of which may affect the Company's business. Any or all of these economic factors, as well as other related factors, may cause decreases in asset values that are deemed to be other than temporary, resulting in impairment losses. If such increased levels of volatility and market turmoil reoccur, the Company's operations could be adversely impacted and the trading price of the Common Shares may be adversely affected.

*Tariffs and Imposition of Other Restrictions on Trade* 

The Company's ability to procure inputs and equipment required for its operations in Canada and the US, and access to markets for Canada and the US's future products, may be subject to interruptions or trade barriers due to policies and tariffs or import/export restrictions of individual countries. The Company's future products may also be subject to tariffs that do not apply to producers based in other countries which could result in changes to its customer base and disrupt the Company anticipated sales processes. Any disruption to current trade practices could have a material impact on the Company's ability to procure inputs and equipment for its operations and projects and to market its future products. The Company is reviewing its exposure to the potential tariffs and alternatives to inputs sourced from suppliers that may be subject to the tariffs. There is uncertainty as to whether current tariffs will be enforceable or whether proposed or retaliatory tariffs will be implemented, the quantum of such tariffs, the goods on which they may be applied and the ultimate effect on the Company's supply chain and costs. Other countries may also adopt other protectionist measures including tariffs, trade barriers and other protectionist or retaliatory measures that could limit the Company's ability to procure goods and services either in response to the imposition of

------

tariffs or otherwise. Such tariffs or retaliatory actions taken by governments could adversely impact the Company's business, financial condition and profitability.

**General** 

The Company is in the business of acquiring and developing uranium properties. Anfield is focused on continuing to advance its plans to create a vertically-integrated uranium entity.

*Competitive Conditions* 

The trend indicators for nuclear energy and the uranium sector are positive and point towards sustained increases in the uranium price — as is now called for by many uranium analysts. Notably, Japan has restarted a number of reactors and is preparing for further re-starts, India has created a strategic uranium reserve, Europe is attempting to wean itself off of Russian oil and gas, and further energy-related sanctions as a result of Russia's attack on Ukraine may spill over to uranium ore and enrichment services. Moreover, China's move to align itself with Kazakhstan in order to secure a long-term source of uranium creates a greater risk that this material will not be available for western reactors. In addition, the global nuclear industry is moving forward strongly with 67 reactors currently being built, another 87 planned to come online in the next 10 years and hundreds further back in the pipeline. Finally, the US government has embraced nuclear as part of its green economy which is reflected in its recent legislation to facilitate the maintenance of nuclear reactors at risk of closing and the ongoing work related to the creation of a strategic Uranium Reserve as part of its comprehensive plans to revive the industry.

Nuclear power is increasingly being seen as essential in providing new baseload electricity and meeting greenhouse gas emission targets. These developments, combined with the shuttering of producing mines and deferment or abandonment of many uranium projects in the current low-price environment, has likely created a uranium shortfall in the near term. Anfield feels it is well positioned to benefit from the uranium market's current prospects as it continues to advance its plans to create a vertically-integrated uranium entity.

Nevertheless, the mineral exploration and mining business is competitive in all phases of exploration, development and production. The Company competes with a number of other entities in the search for and acquisition of productive mineral properties. As a result of this competition, the majority of which may often be with companies with greater financial resources than the Company, the Company may be unable to acquire attractive properties in the future on terms it considers acceptable. The Company also competes for financing with other resource companies, many of which have greater financial resources and/or more advanced properties.

The Company's ability to acquire properties depends on its success in developing the Company's present properties and its ability to select, acquire and bring to production suitable properties or prospects for mineral development. Factors beyond the Company's control may affect the marketability of minerals mined or discovered by the Company. See "*Risk Factors*" in this AIF for information regarding the impact that competitive conditions may have on the Company's business.

*Specialized Skills and Knowledge* 

All aspects of the Company's business require specialized skills and knowledge. Such skills and knowledge include the areas of geology, drilling, logistical planning and implementation of exploration programs and regulatory, finance and accounting. The Company relies upon its management, employees and various consultants for such expertise.

------

*Mineral Price and Economic Cycles* 

The mining business is subject to mineral price cycles. The marketability of minerals and mineral concentrates is also affected by worldwide economic cycles. Uranium markets are affected by global economic conditions. Fluctuations in supply and demand in various regions throughout the world are common.

**TECHNICAL INFORMATION** 

Anfield is engaged in the acquisition and development of uranium assets in the United States. Anfield's assets include: (i) the West Slope Project, located in Colorado; (ii) the Velvet-Wood Project, including the Shootaring Canyon Mill, both located in Utah; (iii) the Slick Rock Project, located in Colorado; and (iv) surface stockpiles containing approximately 370,000 pounds of uranium. The Company's assets have been chosen for their production potential and location in a safe and politically-stable jurisdiction.

------

Management of the Company considers the West Slope Project, Velvet-Wood Project, Slick Rock Project and the Shootaring Canyon Mill to be the material properties of the Company.

Readers are cautioned that mineral resources are considered too speculative to have the economic considerations applied that would enable classification as mineral reserves.

**The West Slope Project** 

The 2022 Mineral Resource Technical Report entitled "*US DOE Uranium/Vanadium Leases JD-6, JD-7, JD-8, and JD-9 Montrose County, Colorado, USA"* and dated April 10, 2022 (the "2022 Technical Report"), which refers to the four core DOE leases of the nine which make up the West Slope Project, was prepared by Douglas L. Beahm, P.E., P.G., Carl Warren, P.E., P.G. and Joshua Stewart, P.E., P.G. of BRS, Inc., all of whom were independent qualified persons ("QPs") for the purposes of NI 43-101 at the time the 2022 Technical Report was prepared. Technical reports for the remaining five DOE leases, which do not share common geography or development plans, have not been prepared.

The summary section from the 2022 Technical Report is reproduced below in its entirety. The 2022 Technical Report is available on the Company's SEDAR+ profile at <u>www.sedarplus.ca</u> and is incorporated by reference herein. Capitalized terms used but not defined in the following summary have the meanings ascribed thereto in the 2022 Technical Report.

**Project Overview** 

The West Slope Project is located within the Uravan Mineral District of southwestern Colorado, approximately 10 miles west of Naturita, Colorado, within Sections 16 to 22, 29, 30, T46N, R17W, 6<sup>th</sup> P.M., of Montrose County, Colorado. The West Slope Project consists of four adjacent DOE Mineral Leases, JD-6, JD-7, JD-8, and JD-9, that were previously developed and mined by Cotter Corporation from the late 1970s to early 2000s. All the four leases experienced underground mining activity over the 30-year period. In addition, the JD-7 lease also had significant open pit stripping performed to within less than 100 feet of the top of mineralization. Mineral resource estimates for the four leases, JD-6, JD-7, JD-8, and JD- 9, were completed for and are the subject of this Technical Report.

The uranium mineralization is present as uranium oxides and uranium/vanadium mineral assemblages. Mineralization is sandstone-hosted, and channel-bound into tabular and lenticular deposits within the Salt Wash member of the Jurassic Morrison Formation.

Uranium and Vanadium have been previously recovered from these deposits primarily by random room and pillar underground mining methods. The mined material was processed through Cotter Corporation's Canon City mill, a conventional acid leach uranium/vanadium mill.

**Project Description and Ownership** 

The current West Slope Project includes four contiguous DOE leases: JD-6, JD-7, JD-8, and JD-9.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● JD-6 Lease (DE-RO01-19LM0254: effective July 6, 2020)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● Consists of 325 acres, located within Sections 21 and 22, T46N, R17W, 6<sup>th</sup> P.M.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● JD-7 Lease (DE-RO01-19LM0255: effective July 6, 2020)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● Consists of 320 acres of the main mineable lease and an adjacent lease, JD-7A, which is intended for placement of overburden extracted from the open-pit. The Lease is located within Sections 16, 17, 21, and 22, T46N, R17W, 6<sup>th</sup> P.M.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● JD-8 Lease (DE-RO01-19LM0256: effective July 6, 2020)

------

Consists of 813 acres, located within Sections 18, 19, and 20, T46N, R17W, 6<sup>th</sup> P.M.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• JD-9 Lease (DE-RO01-19LM0257: effective July 6, 2020)

Consists of 897 acres, located within Sections 19, 29, and 30, T46N, R17W, 6<sup>th</sup> P.M.

**Development Status** 

The DOE leases have been previously mined. From the 1950s to early 2000s, extensive mineral exploration by drilling defined significant uranium and vanadium resources on the four leases. Considerable mine- related infrastructure was built by Cotter Corporation on the leases, including adits and underground stopes, an open-pit, and associated underground and surface infrastructure. More than 1.3 million pounds of uranium (U<sub>3</sub>O<sub>8</sub>) and 6.6 million pounds of vanadium (V<sub>2</sub>O<sub>5</sub>) were produced from the leases and adjacent lode mining claims (Behre Dollbear, 2007).

**History** 

The DOE leases were first made available to mining companies in the 1950s, following exploration by the US Geological Survey (USGS) on behalf of the US Atomic Energy Commission (US AEC, now DOE). Extensive exploration by drilling was completed by the mining companies and extensive uranium and vanadium mineralization was delineated. Underground mining was completed on each of the leases, with an open pit partially developed on the JD-7 lease, where stripping of overburden ceased prior to reaching the mineralized deposits.

Table 1.1 summarizes the past production on the leases. Note: the production totals for each lease includes that extracted from adjacent, unpatented lode mining claims as the individual totals were not separated in the historical records.

On February 20, 2020, Anfield signed a binding agreement with Cotter, whereby Cotter issued a Letter of Credit as required by applicable government entities to facilitate Anfield obtaining Replacement Surety Bonds ("Bonds") for US$2,400,000 (Principal) in connection to the DOE leases (including 6 others in the greater area). On or before the one-year anniversary of the agreement date, Anfield was required to pledge sufficient security under the Bonds to obtain the release of the Letter of Credit and pay US$360,000, equal to 15% of the principal owed to Cotter. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, Anfield lifted the Letter of Credit issued by Cotter by making a cash collateral payment of US$1,200,000 to cover the entirety of the reclamation bond amount and US$360,000 payment for the Replacement Fee.

On March 1, 2019, Anfield reported the acquisition of nine, past-producing DOE uranium/vanadium leases in southwestern Colorado, and the Charlie in-situ project in northeastern Wyoming, from Cotter Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of General Atomics. The subject DOE leases in this report, JD-6, 7, 8, and 9, were included in this transaction. Cotter received 11,051,775 Shares. Cotter retained a royalty in the amount of 15% on uranium and vanadium produced form the DOE leases including, JD-6, 7, 8, and 9. In addition to the Cotter royalties, the DOE leases are subject to yearly royalty, and a production royalty of mined material (per dry ton), payable to the DOE and varies by lease as summarized in Table 1.2.

---

The annual royalty payments shall be credited against the royalty bid payments upon successful mineral extraction from the individual leases.

**Regulatory Status** 

Current permitting status is active for each of the four leases, with 3 years to perform final reclamation. The Company currently inspects each of the leases on a weekly basis, as required by the lease agreements. Monthly stormwater inspections are conducted on the four leases, with precipitation data collected at the JD-7 and JD-9 rain gauge monitoring sites. Quarterly monitor wells samples are collected at the JD-9 lease. Quarterly lysimeter readings are collected at JD-6, JD-8, and JD-9 leases. Quarterly water depth readings on vent holes are completed at the JD-7 and JD-9 leases.

**Geology** 

The host for known uranium mineralization, present as uranium and vanadium oxides, is sandstone-hosted and channel-bound tabular and lenticular deposits within the Salt Wash member of the Jurassic Morrison Formation. The uranium and vanadium bearing minerals occur as fine-grained coatings in detrital grains

------

filling pore spaces between the sand grains and replacing carbonaceous material and some detrital grains (Weeks *et al*., 1956).

**Indicated Uranium Mineral Resources** 

For this technical report, data was available for 2,198 drill holes, totaling approximately 1,250,370 feet drilled. Mineral resources were estimated using the Grade times Thickness (GT) Contour method. The primary data modeled used were uranium equivalent grades as determined by downhole geophysical logging and reported as eU3O8. A radiometric disequilibrium factor of 1 was applied to the resource estimate. The minimum uranium grade included in the estimate was 0.05% eU3O8. Mineral resources are reported at a minimum grade thickness (GT) value of 0.30.

While no formal economic evaluation, PEA, Preliminary Feasibility Study ("PFS"), or Feasibility Study has been completed and while mineral resources are not mineral reserves and do not have demonstrated economic viability, reasonable prospects for future economic extraction were applied to the mineral resource estimate herein through consideration of grade and GT cutoffs and by screening out areas of isolated mineralization which would not support the cost of conventional mining under current and reasonably foreseeable conditions.

The drill spacing in most areas is sufficient to support a higher level of mineral resource classification, however, due to the historical nature of the drill data with no recent confirmatory drilling, the uranium mineral resource estimates reported here are considered Indicated Mineral Resources. Estimated Indicated Mineral resources for uranium are reported at a GT cutoff of 0.30 with a minimum grade of 0.05% eU3O8 as summarized on Table 1.3 which follows. Detailed estimates for each area are provided in Section 14.

Inferred Vanadium Mineral Resources

Vanadium grade was estimated using the historical results of mining and comparative review of the limited number of intercepts assayed for vanadium content for each of the lease tracts. In general, the ratio of vanadium to uranium (V:U) in the Uravan mineralized deposits is typically 5:1 to 7:1. Past production from the JD6 through JD9 leases shows a V:U ratio of 5.8:1 Vanadium resources were estimated using a more conservative 5:1 ratio.

It was industry practice when these leases were developed to estimate vanadium mineral resources and control vanadium grade during mining based on the uranium grade with only limited vanadium assays. Whereas there are limited vanadium assays available for vanadium mineral resource estimation, the mineral resource estimate is considered as an inferred mineral resource for vanadium.

Table 1.4 provides a summary of inferred vanadium mineral resources based on the uranium grade and GT cutoffs and reasonable prospects for economic extraction applied to the estimated uranium mineral resource.

**Summary of Risks** 

It is the authors' opinion that the risks associated with this project are moderate as there has been past mining on the leases and the mine workings generally remain open and accessible. In addition, mining permits are in place although they would need to be updated. However, there are risks similar in nature to other mining projects in general and uranium mining projects specially, i.e., risks common to mining projects include:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• risks associated with mineral reserve and resource estimates, including the risk of errors in assumptions or
methodologies;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• risks associated with estimating mineral extraction and recovery, forecasting future price levels necessary to
support mineral extraction and recovery;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• uncertainties and liabilities inherent to conventional mineral extraction and recovery;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• geological, technical and processing problems, including unanticipated metallurgical difficulties, less than
expected recoveries, ground control problems, process upsets, and equipment malfunctions;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• risks associated with labor costs, labor disturbances, and unavailability of skilled labor;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• risks associated with the availability and/or fluctuations in the costs of raw materials and consumables used in
the production processes;

environmental legislation and regulation, and delays in obtaining permits and licenses that could impact expected mineral extraction and recovery levels and costs; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• actions taken by regulatory authorities with respect to mineral extraction and recovery activities.

The West Slope Project should anticipate some specific risks as follows.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Based on the experience of other proposed mines in the Uravan district, some level of public opposition given its
geographical location. However, Anfield controls the Shootaring Canyon Mill near Ticaboo, Utah. The mill has a source material license from the State of Utah. The mill would require updating and revision of permits to allow operations and the mill
would require refurbishment, but it is considered reasonable to presume mined material from the West Slope Project could ultimately be processed at Ticaboo.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The combined royalty burden from both Cotter and the DOE is considered excessive in comparison to typical
industry practice and may inhibit the development of the West Slope Project.

**Recommendations** 

The recommended project development program, summarized in Section 26, includes collection of core samples from select areas across the project in a manner representative of the overall resource area and/or complete test mining to obtain a bulk sample of mineralized material.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Analyze the samples for uranium, vanadium, and radium to evaluate disequilibrium and the ratio of vanadium to
uranium.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Complete bench scale testing of mechanical sorting of the mined material prior to mineral processing to upgrade
the mined material.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Complete bench scale metallurgical testing of the bulk sample for anticipated mill processing alternatives
including conventional milling, vat and heap leaching.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Completion of a PEA or PFS.

Total estimated expenditures of $750,000 (US dollars)

*Shootaring Canyon Mill* 

The Shootaring Canyon Mill is one of only three licensed, permitted and constructed conventional uranium mills in existence in the United States, with the other two held by Rio Tinto Group and UEC (Sweetwater) and Energy Fuels (White Mesa). Located approximately 48 miles (77 kilometres) south of Hanksville, Utah, the Shootaring Canyon Mill is a conventional acid-leach facility that is permitted to process up to 750 tonnes of ore per day, with a capacity to process up to 1,000 tonnes per day. The mill was built in 1980 and during its period of operation it processed and sold 27,825 pounds of triuranium octoxide. It ceased operation with the collapse of the uranium price in the early 1980s.

*2023 PEA – Summary* 

**Project Overview** ****

***Velvet-Wood Overview*** 

The Velvet and Wood mine projects are located within the Lisbon Valley physiographic province in San Juan County, Utah, as shown in Figure 1.1 and 1.2. The Velvet mine produced a reported 400,000 tons of

------

ore containing some 4.2 million pounds of uranium (U<sub>3</sub>O<sub>8</sub>) and 4.8 million pounds of vanadium (V<sub>2</sub>O<sub>5</sub>) (Chenoweth, 1990).

***Slick Rock Project Overview***

The Slick Rock property is located in the southern end of the Uravan mineral belt of the Colorado Plateau physiographic province and at the southeastern edge of the Paradox fold and fault belt in the proximal Disappointment syncline as shown on Figures 1.1 and 1.2. The Slick Rock District is also a past producer with reported production of 2,236,723 pounds of uranium (U<sub>3</sub>O<sub>8</sub>) and 13,941,457 pounds of vanadium (V<sub>2</sub>O<sub>5</sub>) (Chenoweth, 1990).

***Shootaring Canyon Mill Overview***

For the purposes of this PEA, it is assumed that mineral processing will take place at Anfield's mineral processing facility, the Shootaring Canyon Mill, which lies approximately 180 miles from the Velvet-Wood mine area and approximately 200 miles from the Slick Rock mine area, following existing roads as shown on Figure 1.1.

**Figure 1.2 - Velvet-Wood and Slick Rock Location and Access Map**![LOGO](g163731g93d86.jpg)

**Project Description and Ownership** 

***Velvet-Wood Project Description and Ownership***

The Velvet area is located in San Juan County, Utah, approximately 31 miles from Monticello, Utah, in Township 31 South, Range 25 East, Sections 2, 3, 4 and 10, at Latitude 38° 07' 00" North and Longitude 109° 09' 00" West. The Wood area is located in Township 31 South, Range 26 East, Sections 6 and 7 and Township 31 South, Range 25 East, Sections 1, 11, and 12 at Latitude 38° 08' 00" North and Longitude 109° 06' 00" West. The Velvet-Wood Project ownership includes unpatented mining claims and a State of Utah mineral lease totaling approximately 2,166 acres related to the Velvet and Wood mine areas.

***Slick Rock Project Description and Ownership***

The Slick Rock Project is located in San Miguel County, Southwest Colorado, approximately 23.9 miles north of the town of Dove Creek, Colorado and east of the Dolores River in the Slick Rock District of the Uravan mineral belt. The approximate geographic center of the property is Latitude 38° 2' 51.7" North, Longitude 108° 51' 42.3" West.

Anfield entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Slick Rock Property from Uranium Energy Corp. in an asset swap transaction on April 21, 2022. The Slick Rock Project is comprised of 268 mineral lode claims included in this report and encompasses an area of approximately 4,976 acres or 7.8 square miles as shown in Figure 4.2. Certain claims within the block are subject to 1% to 3% royalties of net uranium and vanadium production.

------

***Shootaring Canyon Mill Description and Ownership***

The Shootaring Canyon Mill is located in Garfield County Utah approximately 52 miles south of Hanksville, Utah in Township 36 South, Range 11 East, Sections 3 and 4 and Township 35 South, Range 11 East, Sections 33 and 34 at approximate Latitude 37° 43' 00" North and Longitude 110° 41' 00" West. The Shootaring Canyon Mill is located on lands which are split estate, with the surface estate being fee land held by Anfield, and the mineral estate being Utah State Trust Land held by Anfield through two mineral leases totaling approximately 905 acres of surface and mineral fee lands.

**Development Status** 

***Velvet-Wood Project Development Status***

A portion of the Velvet area has been mined by underground mine methods. The mined material from this area was transported to the Atlas mill in Moab, Utah for conventional processing. A mine permit is held for the Velvet mine. Re-opening of the Velvet mine would require updating of the mine permit as well as additional permits as subsequently discussed. Access from the former mine operations remain in place. The upper portion of the decline and portal has been closed by backfill and the vent shafts capped at the surface. It is the authors' opinion that the decline and vents can be re-opened; however, underground conditions are unknown.

The Wood area has not been mined. Site access and drill roads which were not already pre-existing were established under this exploration permit.

***Slick Rock Project Development Status***

The Burro No. 3, 5, and 7 Mines were historically operated adjacent to the Slick Rock Project and within the northwest corner of the Slick Rock Project Area. These mines were operated as underground random room and pillar mines through the early 1980s. No access agreement currently exists to access the Slick Rock Project through the Burro Mines. This PEA is based on the sinking of new mine shafts to access the mineral resources at the Slick Rock Project.

***Shootaring Canyon Mill Development Status***

The Shootaring Canyon Mill has a Radioactive Materials License (RML) that is administrated by the UDEQ- DWMRC. This license currently authorizes possession of byproduct material (tailings and other milling wastes) and reclamation activities only. A license amendment to return to operational status is needed as are capital improvements, as subsequently discussed in this report.

**History** 

***Velvet-Wood Project Histor*y** 

The Velvet-Wood mineral holdings have gone through a succession of ownership. Anfield purchased the Velvet-Wood mine along with other conventional uranium assets from Uranium One including the Velvet-Wood Project in August 2015.

The Velvet-Wood Project, as discussed herein, consists of two areas which were historically held by separate companies. The Velvet area was held by Atlas Minerals who mined portions of the mineralization. The Wood area was held during a similar time frame by Uranerz. Uranerz drilled 120 rotary holes from 1985 through 1991 and outlined the current Wood mineral resource area (Chenoweth, 1990). The Wood area as described in this report was drilled but not mined.

Surficial to shallow uranium/vanadium mineralization has been known in the Slick Rock area since the early 1900s (then called the McIntyre district). First mined for radium and minor uranium until 1923, numerous companies sporadically operated small scale mining and processing facilities along the Dolores River. In 1931, a mill was constructed by Shattuck Chemical Co. to process vanadium ore. In 1944, the area was worked by the Union Mines Development Corp. for uranium/vanadium ore.

By December of 1955, Union Carbide Nuclear Corp. (UCNC) had drilled out a sufficient resource on the north side of Burro Canyon and began sinking three shafts. In December 1957, the shaft sinking was complete on the Burro No. 3, 5, and 7 mines to total depths of 408 feet, 414 feet, and 474 feet, respectively. In the same year, initial ore shipments were made to UCNC's concentrating mill at Slick Rock.

Anfield entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Slick Rock Property from Uranium Energy Corp. in an asset swap transaction on April 21, 2022. The Slick Rock Project is comprised of 268 mineral lode claims and encompasses an area of approximately 4,976 acres or 7.8 square miles. Certain claims within the block are subject to 1% to 3% royalties of net uranium and vanadium production.

***Shootaring Canyon Mill History***

The Shootaring Canyon Mill was licensed and constructed by Plateau Resources and has had a succession of owners including US Energy and Uranium One prior to Anfield's acquisition. The mill was constructed by Plateau Resources and operated briefly in 1982. The mill has not been decommissioned and has been under care and maintenance since cessation of operations.

Anfield purchased the Shootaring Canyon Mill along with other conventional uranium assets from Uranium One including the Velvet-Wood Project in August 2015.

**Regulatory Status** 

Permitting for the Velvet-Wood Project and the Slick Rock Project mining operations and the reactivation of the Shootaring Canyon Mill requires various approvals from the state of Utah, the US Bureau of Land Management, and other agencies including but not limited to the following.

Major actions needed include:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Reactivation of the mill

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;o The existing Source Material License, UT0900480, issued by UDEQ/DRC, requires an amendment to convert from
the current care and maintenance status to operational status.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;o A mill reactivation plan has been submitted to the State of Utah's Department of Environmental Quality
(UDEQ). The application includes both substantial designs for the rehabilitation of the mill and a basis for amending the mill license and a reclamation design for the mill tailings.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;o The mill is being maintained along with all additional permits and licenses and required environmental
monitoring programs.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Velvet-Wood Mine

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;o The existing Large Mine Permit, UTU68060, issued by DOGM and the Plan of Operations issued by BLM require an
amendment to convert from current care and maintenance status of operational status and to include the Wood portion of the mine.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;o The existing ground water discharge permit, UGW170003, issued by UDEQ/WQD will require amendment. If uranium
is recovered from the ground water this would require licensing action by UDEQ/DRC.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Slick Rock Mine

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;o A new Large Mine Permit and Plan of Operations is required to be issued by CMLRB and BLM, respectively.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;o If it were necessary to recover uranium onsite from ground water treatment in order to meet discharge permit
requirements, a source materials license from CDPHE would be required.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Permits common to all operations.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;o Air quality permits.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;o Water quality permits, storm water discharge (construction and operations).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;o Monitor well permits.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;o Water rights for consumptive use.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;o Federal Mine Safety for mine and mill under the Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA).

**Geology and Mineralization** 

***Velvet-Wood Project Geology***

The Velvet-Wood Project is located in the Lisbon Valley uranium district which was the largest uranium producing district in Utah. The Lisbon Valley or Big Indian Wash District produced 5 times as much uranium as any other district in Utah from the period of 1948 through 1988 totaling some 77,913,378 pounds U<sub>3</sub>0<sub>8</sub> at an average grade of 0.30 % U<sub>3</sub>0<sub>8</sub> (Chenoweth, 1990). Uranium mineralization in the Velvet and Wood areas is found in sandstone units within the Cutler Formation. The sandstones are fluvial arkose that has been bleached. The mineral deposits are irregular tabular bodies (Denis, 1982) located at the base, at the top, or close to pinch-outs of the sandstone bodies (Campbell and Mallory, 1979). The major producing zone in the Cutler occurs near the unconformity between the Cutler and the overlying Chinle Formation.

***Slick Rock Project Geology***

Uranium/vanadium mineralization is hosted by the Upper Jurassic Morrison Formation and is typical of Colorado Plateau-style uranium/vanadium deposits. Past production came from the upper or third-rim sandstone of the Salt Wash member of the Morrison Formation. This is the target host for uranium/vanadium mineralization within Anfield's Slick Rock Project area.

Uranium and vanadium-bearing minerals occur as fine-grained coatings in detrital grains filling pore spaces between the sand grains and replacing carbonaceous material and some detrital grains (Weeks et al., 1956). The primary uranium minerals are uraninite (UO<sub>2</sub>) with minor amounts of coffinite (USiO<sub>4</sub>OH). Montroseite (VOOH) is the primary vanadium mineral, along with vanadium clays and hydromica. Metal sulfides occur in trace amounts. Mineralization occurs within tabular to lenticular bodies that are peneconcordant within sedimentary bedding. Mineralization may also cut across sedimentary bedding to form irregular shapes.

**Exploration and Drilling Status** 

***Velvet-Wood Project Exploration and Drilling***

Drill data is available for a total of 325 drill holes. Of this total 268 drill holes are of a historic nature and 57 were completed by Uranium One in the 2007/2008 time period. Relevant data including geophysical and lithological logs are available for both recent and historic drilling. 46% of the drill holes encountered uranium mineralization in excess of the recommended cutoff criteria, an additional 41% showed low grade to trace mineralization, and the remaining drill holes were barren and/or not completed to the host horizon.

------

***Slick Rock Exploration and Drilling***

A total of 312 drill holes are available for the Slick Rock Project area. All of the drill holes are considered historic. Of this total, 27 holes have location data but no additional data associated with them. These 27 holes were excluded from the resource modeling. The remaining 285 holes contain 346 unique intercepts. Anfield has recently commenced a 20-hole drill program at Slick Rock in order to verify – and potentially expand – the current resource.

**Mineral Resource Summary** 

This report summarizes mineral resource for the Velvet-Wood Project and Slick Rock Project mines with mineral processing at common facility, the Shootaring Canyon Mill. A detailed description of the mineral resource estimation methodology and results is provided in Section 14. Mineral resources have been estimated for both uranium and vanadium as the mineralization occurs primarily as uranyl-vanadates, and the refurbishment of the Shootaring Canyon Mill will include a vanadium circuit to recover the vanadium as a co-product with the uranium.

The total estimated uranium mineral resources are summarized in Table 1.1. The associated vanadium mineral resource which will be mined as a co-product is summarized in Table 14.2.

While mineral resources are not mineral reserves and do not have demonstrated economic viability, reasonable prospects for future economic extraction were applied to the mineral resource estimates herein through consideration of grade and GT cutoffs as well as mineralization proximity to existing and proposed conceptual mining. As such, economic considerations were exercised by screening out areas which were below these cutoffs or of isolated mineralization and thus would not support the cost of conventional mining under current and reasonably foreseeable conditions.

**Preliminary Economic Assessment** 

Project cost estimates are based on a conventional random room and pillar underground mine operation at the Velvet-Wood Project and Slick Rock Project mine areas. Mined material would be hauled by truck to the Shootaring Canyon Mill approximately 180 miles from Velvet-Wood and 200 miles from Slick Rock.

------

The mill would be fully refurbished and would process mined material for both uranium and vanadium recovery.

All costs are estimated in constant 2022 US Dollars. Operating (OPEX) and Capital (CAPEX) costs reflect a full and complete operating cost going forward including all pre-production costs, permitting costs, mine costs, and complete reclamation and closure costs for of the mine and mineral processing facility. CAPEX does not include sunk costs or acquisition costs.

Commodity prices used in this PEA are discussed in Section 19 and are $70 per pound for uranium oxide and $12 per pound for vanadium pentoxide.

An investigation and design study for the reactivation of the Shootaring Canyon Mill was commissioned by Anfield who engaged PSE of Salt Lake City, Utah for this study. The PSE study provided substantial designs for the rehabilitation of the mill, provided a basis updating the mill license, and considered options for increasing the mill throughput.

Mine design and permitting for the Velvet-Wood Project and Slick Rock Project mines are also ongoing. It is recommended that this PEA be revised following completion of this investigation and study.

Mining and mineral recovery methods are described in Sections 16 and 17, respectively. Capital and operating costs, CAPEX and OPEX, are discussed in Section 21.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Total initial CAPEX, not including current and sunk costs, is estimated at $122.3 million USD (refer to
table 21.1).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Total weighted average OPEX is estimated at $244 USD per ton mined and processed (refer to Table 21.3).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The total cost per ton to produce saleable uranium and vanadium products is estimated at $290 USD per ton. This
compares to an estimated gross value of $741 USD per ton (refer to Table 21.3).

For the purposes of this PEA, it was assumed that the Shootaring Canyon Mill would be refurbished to its original 750 tons per day capacity and a vanadium recovery circuit would be added. The PEA considers simultaneous mine feed from the Velvet-Wood Project decline and two production shafts at the Slick Rock Project. Given the selective nature of the mining and the geometry of the mineralization, three production centers are needed to meet the mill tonnage capacity. Referring to the cash flow model Table 22.4, the currently defined mineral resource at Velvet-Wood would be mined out in 8 years while production from the two shafts at Slick Rock Project would continue for 15 years. Thus, additional mill tonnage capacity would be available beginning in year 9. Additional mill feed could be sourced as captive feed from other Anfield mineral resource holdings in the Colorado Plateau or from mineral resource holdings of others under toll milling agreements.

The base case is based on commodity prices of $70 per pound for uranium oxide and $12 per pound for vanadium pentoxide with respective mill recoveries of 92% and 75%, respectively. The base case economic evaluation shows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Pre-tax IRR 40%

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Post-tax IRR 33%

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Pre-Tax NPV (8% discount rate) $238,398 $US x 1,000

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Post-Tax NPV (8% discount rate) $196,768 $US x 1,000

Breakeven with respect to commodity price occurs when the base case commodity prices are reduced by 40% to $42/lb and $7.20/lb, respectively.

------

This project, like all similar projects, is quite sensitive to commodity prices as shown in Figures 1.31 and 1.4 for pre and post income tax NPV, respectively.

This is a restricted disclosure as allowed under section 2.3(3) of NI 43-101 which includes a PEA and is preliminary in nature such that it includes a portion of the inferred mineral resources as reported in Section 14 of the report. Mineral resources are not mineral reserves and do not have demonstrated economic viability in accordance with CIM Standards. Inferred mineral resources are too speculative to have the economic considerations applied to them that would enable them to be categorized as mineral reserves, and there is no certainty that the outcomes estimated in the PEA will be realized.

**Summary of Risks** 

The authors are not aware of environmental, permitting, legal, title, taxation, socio-economic, marketing, political, or other relevant factors not stated herein which would materially affect the mineral resource estimates or the results of the PEA. To the authors' knowledge there are no other significant factors that may affect access, title, or the right or ability to perform work on the property, provided the conditions of all mineral leases and options and relevant operating permits and licenses are met. A summary of risks follows, categorized in terms of economic, technical, and permitting and licensing risks.

*Economic Risks*:

This report includes disclosure permitted under Section 2.3(3) of NI 43-101 as the PEA includes a portion of the inferred mineral resources reported in Section 14 of the report. Mineral resources are not mineral reserves and do not have demonstrated economic viability. A PFS is required, at a minimum, to demonstrate the economic viability of the measured and indicated mineral resources and qualify an initial estimate of mineral reserves.

------

The PEA is preliminary in nature and includes inferred mineral resources that are considered too speculative geologically to have economic considerations applied to them that would enable them to be categorized as mineral reserves, and there is no certainty that the PEA will be realized.

*Technical Risks:* 

It is the authors' opinion that the technical risks associated are low for the following reasons:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● Portions of deposit have been successfully mined in the past.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● Uranium has been successfully extracted from mined material via conventional milling.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● The Velvet-Wood Project and the Slick Rock Project have some of the required operating permits and facilities
in place.

The Velvet-Wood Project and Slick Rock Project do have some risks similar in nature to other mining projects in general and uranium mining projects specially, i.e., risks common to mining projects including:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● Future commodity demand and pricing.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● Environmental and political acceptance of the project.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● Variance in capital and operating costs.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● Mine and mineral processing recovery and dilution.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● Continuity of mineralization with respect to thickness and grade may vary.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● Mining claims are subject to the Mining Law of 1872. Changes in the mining law could affect the mineral
tenure.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● There is a risk that underground conditions at the Velvet Mine and/or the Slick Rock Mine may limit access to
mineral resources.

The authors are not aware of environmental, permitting, legal, title, taxation, socio-economic, marketing, political, or other relevant factors which would materially affect the mineral resource estimates, provided the conditions of all mineral leases and options, and relevant operating permits and licenses are met.

*Permitting and Licensing Risks:* 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● The BLM could require updated baseline environmental studies and initiate the National Environmental Policy
Act (NEPA) process if the updated mine plan deviates significantly from the scope of the currently approved but outdated plan. This could have substantial cost and schedule impacts, as discussed in Section 20.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● The Colorado Department of Health and/or Utah Department of Environmental Quality - Division of Waste
Management and Radiation Control could require a Source Materials License if mine dewatering treatment wastes exceed the minimum quantities identified in 10 CFR §40.22 (more than 150 lbs of material with greater than 0.05% natural uranium),
which would incur risks of additional costs and extended schedule.

**Recommendations** 

The following recommendations relate to potential improvement and/or advancement of the Velvet-Wood Project and Slick Rock Project and fall within two categories; recommendations to potentially enhance the resource base and recommendations to advance the projects towards development. Both may be conducted contemporaneously.

The Slick Rock Project will require a Phase 1 verification drilling program to confirm the existing database and upgrade the resource category. This would be followed by Phase 2 of work, including delineation

------

drilling, updating resource model, and preparation of a PEA update or PFS. The Velvet mine does not require an initial phase of verification and would be included along with the Slick Rock Project in Phase 2.

Phase 1 costs total $550,000 USD and are summarized on Table 26.1.

The Phase 2 recommendations and cost estimates for the Velvet-Wood Project are provided in Table 26.2. The Phase 2 recommendations and cost estimates for the Slick Rock Project are provided for future reference in Table 26.3.

Total Phase 2 cost is estimated at $4.5 million USD.

**DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS** 

The Company has no fixed dividend policy and the Company has not declared any dividends on its Shares since its incorporation. The Company anticipates that all available funds will be used to undertake exploration and development programs on its mineral properties as well as for the acquisition of additional mineral properties. The payment of dividends in the future will depend, among other things, upon the Company's earnings, capital requirements and operating and financial condition. Generally, dividends can only be paid if a corporation has retained earnings. There can be no assurance that the Company will generate sufficient earnings to allow it to pay dividends.

Each of the members of the Audit Committee has had several years of experience as a senior executive and a member of the board of significant business enterprises in which he has assumed substantial financial and operational responsibility. In the course of these duties, the members have gained a reasonable understanding of the accounting principles used by the Company; an ability to assess the general application of such principles in connection of the accounting for estimates, accruals and reserves; experience analyzing and evaluating financial statements that present a breadth and level of complexity of issues that can reasonably be expected to be raised by the Company's financial statements, or experience actively supervising one or more individuals engaged in such activities; and an understanding of internal controls and procedures for financial reporting.

We conducted our audit in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in Canada, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

**Material Uncertainty Related to Going Concern** 

We draw attention to Note 1 to the financial statements, which describes events or conditions that indicate the existence of a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.

**Key Audit Matters** 

Key audit matters are those matters, that in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

In addition to the matter described in the Material Uncertainty Related to Going Concern section, we have determined the matter described below to be a key audit matter to be communicated in our report.

| **KEY** **AUDIT** **MATTER** | HOW THE MATTER WAS ADDRESSED IN THE AUDIT |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Valuation of Asset Retirement Obligations<br>We draw attention to Note 10 of the financial statements. The Company has asset retirement obligations with a carrying value of $23,975,931 as at December 31, 2024. At each reporting date, the Company is required to assess whether there are any changes in the future restoration costs.<br>We considered this a key audit matter due to the significance of the asset retirement obligations' carrying value and the high degree of judgement and subjectivity required in applying audit procedures and assessing the results of those procedures. This resulted in an increased extent of audit effort, including the involvement of a valuation specialist.<br>| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Our approach to address the matter including the following procedures, among others:<br>• Evaluated the inputs and assumptions used in the management's forecast regarding estimated future restoration costs;<br>• Evaluated management's assumption on timing of restoration;<br>• With the assistance of a valuation specialist, evaluated the reasonableness of the discount rates and inflation rates used in the forecast; and<br>• Tested the mathematical accuracy of the net present value of future restoration costs.<br>|

**Other Information** 

Management is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in Management's Discussion and Analysis.

Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information identified above and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.

We obtained Management's Discussion and Analysis prior to the date of this auditor's report. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

**Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Financial Statements** 

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the Company's financial reporting process.

**Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements** 

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements. As part of an audit in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due
to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud
is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit
procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting
estimates and related disclosures made by management.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Conclude on the appropriateness of management's use of the going concern basis of
accounting and based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material
uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence
obtained up to the date of our auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including
the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.

From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor's report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

The engagement partner on the audit resulting in this independent auditor's report is Heather McGhie.

**Anfield Energy Inc.** 

**Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements** 

**For years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023** 

**(Expressed in Canadian Dollars)** 

**1.** **CORPORATE INFORMATION AND GOING CONCERN** 

Anfield Energy Inc. (the "Company") is a publicly listed company incorporated in British Columbia on July 12, 1989. The Company's shares are listed on the TSX Venture Exchange ("TSX.V") under the symbol "AEC", the OTCQB Marketplace under the symbol "ANLDF", and the Frankfurt Stock Exchange under the symbol "OAD". On September 16, 2022, 125,000,000 warrants of the Company commenced trading on TSX.V under the symbol "AEC.WT". The Company is engaged in mineral development and production. The Company's head office and its registered and records offices are located at Suite 2005, 4390 Grange Street, Burnaby, British Columbia, V5H 1P6.

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the assumption that the Company will continue as a going concern, meaning it will continue in operation for the foreseeable future and will be able to realize assets and discharge liabilities in the ordinary course of operations. As at December 31, 2024 the Company had not advanced its properties to commercial production and is not able to finance day to day activities through operations. The Company incurred a net loss of $11,445,652 during the year ended December 31, 2024, and had an accumulated deficit of $84,544,667 as at December 31, 2024. The Company's continuation as a going concern is dependent upon the successful results from its mineral property exploration and development activities and its ability to attain profitable operations and generate funds therefrom and or raise equity capital or borrowings sufficient to meet current and future obligations. While these factors indicate the existence of a material uncertainty that casts significant doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern, subsequent to December 31, 2024 the Company completed an equity financing for gross proceeds of $15,000,000 and amended an existing credit facility to provide an additional US$6,000,000 of capital (Note 19). Management intends to continue to finance operating costs and expenditures over the next twelve months with private placements of common shares or the issuance of debt. Should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern, the net realizable value of its assets may be materially less than the amounts on its consolidated statement of financial position. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. Such adjustments could be material.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**b)** **BASIS OF CONSOLIDATION** 

These consolidated financial statements comprise the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries incorporated in the United States which include Equinox Exploration Holding Corp. ("EQX US"), Anfield Resources Holding Corp. ('ARHC"), ARH Wyoming Corp. ("ARHW"), Highbury Resources Inc. ("HRI"), Anfield Precious Metals Inc. ("APMI") and Neutron Energy, Inc. ("NEI") (Note 3). All inter-company transactions, balances, income and expenses are eliminated on consolidation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**c)** **SIGNIFICANT MANAGEMENT JUDGEMENT AND ESTIMATES IN APPLYING ACCOUNTING POLICIES** 

***Significant estimates and assumptions***

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with IFRS requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The Company's management reviews these estimates and underlying assumptions on an ongoing basis, based on experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Revisions to estimates are adjusted for prospectively in the period in which the estimates are revised.

Areas requiring a significant degree of estimation and judgment relate to the determination of the recoverability of the carrying value of property and equipment, and exploration and evaluation assets, fair value measurements for financial instruments and share-based compensation and other equity-based payments, the recognition and valuation of provisions for restoration and environmental liabilities, purchase price allocation and the recoverability and measurement of deferred tax assets and liabilities. Actual results may differ from those estimates and judgments.

***Significant judgments***

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with IFRS requires the Company to make judgments, apart from those involving estimates, in applying accounting policies. The most significant judgments in applying the Company's consolidated financial statements include:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The assessment of the Company's ability to continue as a going concern and whether there are events or conditions
that may give rise to significant uncertainty;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Whether there are indicators of impairment or impairment reversal of the Company's property and equipment and
exploration and evaluation assets; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The determination of future unfulfilled conditions or other contingencies which may result in a liability.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**d)** **CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS** 

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand, deposits held on call with banks, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible into known amount of cash and which are subject to insignificant risk of changes in value. Cash and cash equivalents have a term to maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**e)** **FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) <u>Classification</u>

The Company classifies its financial instruments in the following categories: at fair value through profit and loss ("FVTPL"), at fair value through other comprehensive income ("FVTOCI") or at amortized cost. The Company determines the classification of financial assets at initial recognition. The classification of debt instruments is driven by the Company's business model for managing the financial assets and their contractual cash flow characteristics. Equity instruments that are held for trading are classified as FVTPL. For other equity instruments, on the day of acquisition the Company can make an irrevocable election (on an instrument-by-instrument basis) to designate them as at FVTOCI. Financial liabilities are measured at amortized cost, unless they are required to be measured at FVTPL (such as instruments held for trading or derivatives) or if the Company has opted to measure them at FVTPL.

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
|  Financial assets/liabilities | Classification |
|  Cash | FVTPL |
|  Marketable securities | FVTPL |
|  Reclamation bonds | Amortized cost |
|  Accounts payable | Amortized cost |
|  Due to related parties | Amortized cost |
| Loan payable | Amortized cost |

---

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) <u>Measurement</u>

<u>Financial assets and liabilities at amortized cost</u>

Financial assets and liabilities at amortized cost are initially recognized at fair value plus or minus transaction costs, respectively, and subsequently carried at amortized cost less any impairment.

<u>Financial assets and liabilities at FVTPL</u>

Financial assets and liabilities carried at FVTPL are initially recorded at fair value and transaction costs are expensed in the statements of comprehensive income (loss). Realized and unrealized gains and losses arising from changes in the fair value of the financial assets and liabilities held at FVTPL are included in the statements of comprehensive income (loss) in the period in which they arise.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) <u>Derecognition</u>

<u>Financial assets</u>

The Company derecognizes financial assets only when the contractual rights to cash flows from the financial assets expire, or when it transfers the financial assets and substantially all of the associated risks and rewards of ownership to another entity.

<u>Financial liabilities</u>

The Company derecognizes a financial liability when its contractual obligations are discharged or cancelled, or expire. The Company also derecognizes a financial liability when the terms of the liability are modified such that the terms and / or cash flows of the modified instrument are substantially different, in which case a new financial liability based on the modified terms is recognized at fair value. Gains and losses on derecognition are generally recognized in profit or loss.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**f)** **SHARE - BASED PAYMENTS** 

Share-based payments to employees are measured at the fair value of the instruments issued and amortized over the vesting periods. Share-based payments to non-employees are measured at the fair value of goods or services received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, if it is determined the fair value of the goods or services cannot be reliably measured, and are recorded at the date the goods or services are received. The corresponding amount is recorded to the option reserve. The fair value of options is determined using the Black–Scholes Option Pricing Model. The number of shares and options expected to vest is reviewed and adjusted at the end of each reporting period such that the amount recognized for services received as consideration for the equity instruments granted shall be based on the number of equity instruments that eventually vest.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**g)** **PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT** 

Property and equipment is stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Subsequent costs are included in the asset's carrying amount or recognized as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of a significant replaced part is derecognized. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to the consolidated statement and comprehensive income (loss) during the financial period in which they are incurred. Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing the proceeds with the carrying amount and are recognized in profit or loss.

The Company's property and equipment consists of a vehicle and the Shootaring Mill. Depreciation of the vehicle is calculated on a straight-line method to charge the cost, less residual value, over the estimated useful life of 7 years. Certain items of property, plant and equipment including the Shootaring Mill and its related assets are amortized over the estimated life of the mine using the units-of-production ("UOP") method based on the recoverable ounces from the indicated resources. As at December 31, 2024, the Shootaring Mill is not yet in operation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**h)** **EVALUATION AND EXPLORATION ASSETS** 

Costs incurred before the Company has obtained the legal rights to explore an area are expensed as incurred.

Exploration and evaluation expenditures include the direct costs related to the acquisition of exploration and evaluation assets. Option payments are considered acquisition costs provided that the Company has the intention of exercising the underlying option.

Property option agreements are exercisable entirely at the option of the optionee. Therefore, option payments (or recoveries) are recorded when payment is made (or received) and are not accrued.

Acquisition costs, which include asset retirement obligations assumed on acquisition, are capitalized. Exploration and evaluation expenditures, other than acquisition costs, incurred prior to the establishment of technical feasibility and commercial viability of extracting mineral resources and a decision to proceed with development are charged to operations as incurred.

Exploration and evaluation assets are tested for impairment if facts or circumstances indicate that impairment exists. Examples of such facts and circumstances are as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the period for which the Company has the right to explore in the specific area has expired during the period or will
expire in the near future, and is not expected to be renewed;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• substantive expenditure on further exploration for and evaluation of mineral resources in the specific area is neither
budgeted nor planned;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• exploration and evaluation of mineral resources in the specific area have not led to the discovery of commercially
viable quantities of mineral resources and the entity has decided to discontinue such activities in the specific area; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• sufficient data exist to indicate that, although a development in the specific area is likely to proceed, the carrying
amount of the exploration and evaluation asset is unlikely to be recovered in full from successful development or by sale.

After technical feasibility and commercial viability of extracting a mineral resource are demonstrable, exploration and evaluation assets attributable to that area of interest are first tested for impairment and then reclassified to mining property and development assets within property, plant and equipment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**i)** **IMPAIRMENT OF NON - FINANCIAL ASSETS** 

The carrying amount of the Company's assets (which include property and equipment and exploration and evaluation assets) is reviewed at each reporting date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss. An impairment loss is recognized whenever the carrying amount of an asset or its cash generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount. Impairment losses are recognized in the statement of comprehensive income (loss).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**i)** **IMPAIRMENT OF NON - FINANCIAL ASSETS (CONT 'D)** 

The recoverable amount of assets is the greater of an asset's fair value less cost to sell and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects the current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. For an asset that does not generate cash inflows largely independent of those from other assets, the recoverable amount is determined for the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. An impairment loss is only reversed if there is an indication that the impairment loss may no longer exist and there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. Any reversal of impairment cannot increase the carrying value of the asset to an amount higher than the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognized in previous years. Assets that have an indefinite useful life are not subject to amortization and are tested annually for impairment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**j)** **FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION** 

The functional currency of each entity is measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which that entity operates. The consolidated financial statements are presented in Canadian dollars which is the parent company's functional and presentation currency. The functional currency of EQX US, ARHC, ARHW, HRI, APMI and NEI is the US dollar. The functional currency determinations were conducted through an analysis of the consideration factors identified in IAS 21, *the Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates*.

***Transactions and balances***

Foreign currency transactions are translated into functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the date of the transaction. Foreign currency monetary items are translated at the period-end exchange rate. Non-monetary items measured at historical cost continue to be carried at the exchange rate at the date of the transaction. Non-monetary items measured at fair value are reported at the exchange rate at the date when fair values were determined.

Exchange differences arising on the translation of monetary items or on settlement of monetary items are recognized in the statement of comprehensive income (loss) in the period in which they arise, except where deferred in equity as a qualifying cash flow or net investment hedge.

Exchange differences arising on the translation of non-monetary items are recognized in other comprehensive income in to the extent that gains and losses arising on those non-monetary items are also recognized in other comprehensive income. Where the non-monetary gain or loss is recognized in profit or loss, the exchange component is also recognized in profit or loss.

***Foreign operations***

The financial results and position of foreign operations whose functional currency is different from the Company's presentation currency are translated as follows:

- assets and liabilities are translated at period-end exchange rates prevailing at that reporting date; and

- income and expenses are translated at average exchange rates for the period.

Exchange differences arising on translation of foreign operations are recognized in other comprehensive income and recorded in the Company's foreign currency translation reserve in equity. These differences are recognized in the profit or loss in the period in which the operation is disposed.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**k)** **RESTORATION AND ENVIRONMENTAL OBLIGATIONS** 

The Company recognizes liabilities for statutory, contractual, constructive or legal obligations associated with the retirement of long-term assets, when those obligations result from the acquisition, construction, development or normal operation of the assets. The net present value of future restoration cost estimates arising from the decommissioning of plant and other site preparation work is capitalized to exploration and evaluation assets along with a corresponding increase in the restoration provision in the period incurred. Discount rates using a pre-tax rate that reflect the time value of money are used to calculate the net present value. The restoration asset will be depreciated on the same basis as other mining assets.

The Company's estimates of restoration costs could change as a result of changes in regulatory requirements. These changes are recorded directly to mining assets with a corresponding entry to the restoration provision. The Company's estimates are reviewed annually for changes in regulatory requirements, discount rates, effects of inflation and changes in estimates.

Changes in the net present value, excluding changes in the Company's estimates of reclamation costs, are charged to profit or loss for the period. The net present value of restoration costs arising from subsequent site damage that is incurred on an ongoing basis during production are charged to profit or loss in the period incurred.

The costs of restoration projects that were included in the provision are recorded against the provision as incurred.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**l)** **INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE** 

Basic income (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of outstanding shares issued during the reporting period. Diluted income (loss) per share is calculated by the treasury stock method. Under the treasury stock method, the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the calculation of diluted income (loss) per share assumes that the proceeds to be received on the exercise of dilutive share options and warrants are used to repurchase common shares at the average market price during the period. In a loss reporting period, potentially dilutive common shares are excluded from the loss per share calculation as the effect would be antidilutive.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**m)** **ACCOUNTING STANDARDS** 

***Accounting standards effective January 1, 2024***

In January 2020, the IASB issued *Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-current* (Amendments to IAS 1), which amended IAS 1 to clarify the requirements for presenting liabilities in the statement of financial position. The amendments specify that the Company must have the right to defer settlement of a liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period for the liability to be classified as non-current.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**m)** **ACCOUNTING STANDARDS (CONT 'D)** 

In addition, the amendments clarify that: (a) the Company's right to defer settlement must exist at the end of the reporting period; (b) classification is unaffected by management's intentions or expectations about whether the Company will exercise its right to defer settlement; (c) if the Company's right to defer settlement is subject to the Company complying with specified conditions, the right exists at the end of the reporting period only if the Company complies with those conditions at the end of the reporting period, even if the lender does not test compliance until a later date; and (d) the term settlement includes the transfer of the Company's own equity instruments to the counterparty that results in the extinguishment of the liability, except when the settlement of the liability with the Company transferring its own equity instruments is at the option of the counterparty and such option has been classified as an equity instrument, separate from the host liability.

In October 2022, the IASB issued *Non-current Liabilities with Covenants*, which amended IAS 1 to clarify that if the Company's right to defer settlement of a liability for at least 12 months is subject to the Company complying with covenants after the reporting period, those covenants would not affect whether the Company's right to defer settlement exists at the end of the reporting period for the purposes of classifying a liability as current or non-current. The amendments also increased the disclosure requirement relating to such covenants to include: (i) the nature of the covenants and the date by which the Company must comply with the covenants; (ii) whether the Company would comply with the covenants based on its circumstances at the reporting date; and (iii) whether and how the Company expects to comply with the covenants by the date on which they are contractually required to be tested. The above amendments are effective for the Company's annual reporting period beginning on January 1, 2024. As disclosed in Note 11, the Company's Credit Facility is subject to certain covenants.

At December 31, 2024, the Company was in compliance with all covenants. The impacts of initial application of the amendments on the Company's consolidated financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2024 and for future periods will depend on the Company's right to defer settlement of its liabilities at the end of such reporting period and can include increased disclosure in respect of its compliance with related covenants.

***Accounting standards not yet effective***

In April 2024, the IASB issues IFRS 18 Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements ("IFRS 18"), which will replace IAS 1 and includes requirements for all entities applying IFRS Accounting Standards for the presentation and disclosure of information in the financial statements. IFRS 18 will introduce new totals, subtotals, and categories for income and expenses I the statement of income, as well as requiring disclosure about management-defined performance measures and additional requirements regarding the aggregation and disaggregation of certain information. It will be effective on January 1, 2027, with earlier adoption permitted, and it must be adopted on a retrospective basis. The Company is currently evaluating the impact on its financial statements.

Other accounting standards or amendments to existing accounting standards that have been issued but have future effective dates are either not applicable or are not expected to have a significant impact on the Company's financial statements.

There were favorable changes in the market conditions for uranium production, as well as other factors, which indicated the impairment loss recognized in prior periods in relation to the Shootaring mill no longer exists. On December 31, 2023, the Company determined that the fair value less cost of disposal of the asset was higher than the carrying value of the mill if no impairment loss had been recognized in prior periods. As a result, the Company reversed the total impairment of $21,986,159 (US$16,576,438) along with the changes to the ARO estimates for the period between the impairment and December 31, 2023.

*Reclamation Bonds* 

The Company is required to obtain replacement bonds to meet reclamation requirements in connection with the Shootaring Mill.

During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company recorded a bond premium of US$470,857 (2023

- US$370,702) as insurance, which would create an obligation for the surety company to cover the difference between the bond requirement and the cash collateral. The bond premium is amortized over one year. During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company recorded $567,670 (2023 –$493,443) as insurance expense and at December 31, 2024, $372,736 (2023 – $343,287) was recorded in prepaid insurance premium for the reclamation bond requirements.

As at December 31, 2024, the Company recorded the cash collateral of US$11,129,593 ($16,028,060) (2023 – US$10,583,683 ($14,037,668)) as a reclamation bond.

**11.** **LOANS PAYABLE** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**a)** **CREDIT FACILITY** 

On September 26, 2023, the Company entered into a loan agreement (the "Loan Agreement") for a non- revolving term credit facility (the "Credit Facility") with Extract Advisors LLC as agent (the "Agent") for Extract Capital Master Fund Ltd. (the "Lender"). The Credit Facility of $4,300,000 matures on September 26, 2028, bears a coupon of the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") plus 5.0% per annum, payable semi-annually in U.S. dollars. The SOFR is equal to the secured overnight financing rate published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York on the website of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. The Company, with written notice, may elect to capitalize the interest payable on the Credit Facility semi-annually, in arrears, at a rate of SOFR plus 7.0%. On October 6, 2023, the terms of the Loan Agreement were amended to add the fixed repayment amount of US$3,203,961. Interest shall be calculated based on the repayment amount of US$3,203,961 and on the basis of a year of 360 days. The Credit Facility has an original issue discount of $300,000.

In connection with the Loan Agreement, the Company issued 42,105,263 warrants to the Lender, with each warrant entitling the holder to acquire one common share of the Company at an exercise price of $0.095 per warrant for a period ending on the maturity date. For so long as the Credit Facility remains outstanding, all proceeds from the exercise of the warrants by the Lender shall be used to repay the principal amount of the Credit Facility. As additional consideration for arranging the Loan, the Company paid an arrangement fee of $100,000 to the Lender and reimbursed expenses of $32,678 to the Agent. The Company also incurred other financing costs of $254,162 which included a success fee of $180,500 paid to Haywood Securities Inc. ($90,500 in cash and issuance of 1,158,301 common shares of the Company with a fair value of $90,000), legal expenses of $66,312 and filing fees of $7,350.

On October 6, 2023, the Company received proceeds of US$2,839,875, net of the original issue discount of US$218,452 ($300,000), arrangement fee of US$72,817 ($100,000) and an initial foreign exchange loss of US$72,817.

The Credit Facility contains a voluntary prepayment option, allowing the Company to prepay the Credit Facility at any time after the twelve-month anniversary of the closing date by paying a prepayment fee equal to 3% of the outstanding amount of the Credit Facility.

**11.** **LOAN PAYABLE (CONTINUED)** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**a)** **CREDIT FACILITY (CONTINUED)** 

The Credit Facility contains a mandatory prepayment clause where the Company must pay certain amount of proceeds from sale of secured assets, debt financings, or royalty sale transactions, to the Agent.

The Credit Facility is secured by a corporate guarantee and share pledge from each of the subsidiaries of the Company and contains certain other customary provisions, including certain covenants and default conditions in favour of the Lender.

The Credit Facility is a compound financial instrument which consists of two components: the loan (a financial liability) and the warrants (an equity instrument). The Company assessed each of the components separately and allocated the proceeds from the Credit Facility and financing costs as follows:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| | **Credit Facility<br>(USD)** | **Financing costs<br>(USD)** | **Credit Facility (net of** <br> **financing costs) <br>(USD)**  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Financial liability | $&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2188982 | $161418 | $2027564 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Warrants | 650893 | 47998 | 602895 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; **Total** | $**2839875** | $**209416** | $**2630459** |

---

The initial carrying amount of the financial liability was determined by discounting the estimated future interest and principal payments at a discount rate of 20.5%.

The carrying amounts of the equity component (the warrants) was established using the residual fair value approach, which takes the difference between the principal amount received from the Credit Facility (US$2,839,875) less the fair value of the loan. The value of the warrants of $827,956 (US$602,895), net of financing cost of $65,915 (US$47,998) is recorded within warrant reserves on the statement of financial position.

The carrying value of the loan will be accreted using the effective interest rate method over the term of the Credit Facility. The effective interest rate is estimated at 23.74%.

In consideration for entering into the waiver and second amending agreement, on June 26, 2024, the Company issued the lender 4,000,000 share purchase warrants with a fair value of $250,109.

The Company manages the capital structure and makes adjustments to it in light of changes in economic conditions and the risk characteristics of the underlying assets. To maintain or adjust its capital structure, the Company may issue new shares, acquire or dispose of assets, or adjust the amount of cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments. In order to maximize ongoing development efforts, the Company does not pay out dividends. The Company is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements. There were no changes during the year to management's approach to capital management. The Company's investment policy is to invest its excess cash in highly liquid investments that are readily convertible into cash with maturities of three months or less from the original date of acquisition or when it is needed, selected with regards to the expected timing of expenditures from continuing operations.

**16.** **F INANCIAL I NSTRUMENTS** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**a)** **FAIR VALUE** 

The carrying values of cash, accounts payable, due to related parties and loan payable approximate their fair values due to the relatively short period to maturity of those financial instruments. The carrying value of the long-term debt approximates its fair value due to the floating rate interest charged under the credit facility. Financial instruments recorded at fair value on the statements of financial position are classified using a fair value hierarchy.

The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability either directly (i.e., as prices) or indirectly (i.e., derived from prices); and

Level 3: Inputs that are not based on observable market data.

As at December 31, 2024, the financial instruments recorded at fair value on the statement of financial position are cash and marketable securities which are measured using Level 1, and the financial instruments recorded at amortized cost are reclamation bonds.

The following are the contractual maturities of financial liabilities as at December 31, 2024:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
|  | <1 Year | 1-2 Years | 3-5 Years |

**18.** **FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT** 

**FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT**

***CREDIT RISK***

Credit risk is the risk that one party to a financial instrument will fail to discharge an obligation and cause the other party to incur a financial loss. The Company's primary exposure to credit risk is on its cash held in bank accounts. The majority of cash is deposited in bank accounts held with major banks in Canada. As the Company's cash is held by one bank there is a concentration of credit risk. This risk is managed by using a major bank that is high credit quality financial institutions as determined by rating agencies. The Company has secondary exposure to credit risk on its receivables. The receivables consist of refundable goods and services tax from the government. Credit risk is assessed as low.

***LIQUIDITY RISK***

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Company has a planning and budgeting process in place to help determine the funds required to support the Company's normal operating requirements on an ongoing basis. The Company ensures that there are sufficient funds to meet its short-term business requirements, taking into account its anticipated cash flows from operations and its holdings of cash. Historically, the Company's sole source of funding has been the issuance of equity securities for cash, primarily through private placements. The Company's access to financing is always uncertain. There can be no assurance of continued access to significant equity funding. Liquidity risk is assessed as high.

The Company's current liabilities are due on demand or have a term of less than a year. The Company's long- term liabilities consist of a credit facility which is due on September 26, 2028.

***INTEREST RATE RISK***

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. As at December 31, 2024, the Company's loan payable of US$3,625,128 is subject to interest rate risk. The loan payable incurs interest based on the SOFR plus 5.0% per annum, payable semi-annually in U.S. dollars. The Company, with written notice, may elect to capitalize the interest payable on the Credit Facility semi-annually, in arrears, at a rate of SOFR plus 7.0%. If interest rates on the Company's credit facility increased (decreased) by 100 basis points with all other variables held constant, finance costs on the credit facility would increase (decreased) by $52,207 (2023 - $42,496).

**(Expressed in Canadian Dollars)** 

**18.** **FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (CONTINUED)** 

***FOREIGN CURRENCY RISK***

Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair values of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because they are denominated in currencies that differ from the respective functional currency. The foreign currency risk for the Company is low as the foreign currencies held are in the functional currency of the entities.

***COMMODITY RISK***

Commodity risk is the risk that the value of future cash flows and profits will fluctuate based on the prices of commodities. The Company is exposed to changes in the price of commodities. Changes in the price of commodities will impact the Company's ability to obtain financing to explore its exploration and evaluation assets.

As at December 31, 2024, the Company has no contracts or agreements in place to mitigate these price risks.

**19.** **SUBSEQUENT EVENTS** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;a) On January 14, 2025, the Company terminated the Arrangement Agreement dated October 2, 2024 as discussed in Note 4.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;c) On January 20, 2025, the Company repaid the IsoEnergy promissory note and accrued interest as discussed in Note
11. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;d) On February 20, 2025, the Company entered into an Indemnification Support Agreement with UEC whereby UEC will
provide indemnification support limited to US$3,000,000 (the "Support Amount") in connection with certain bonding requirements relating to Shootaring Canyon Mill. In consideration for the provision of the indemnity, the Company agrees to
pay to UEC a cash support fee equal to the Support Amount multiplied by the secured overnight financing rate ("SOFR") as administered by the CME Group Benchmark Administration Limited plus 5% per annum, which fee shall be calculated
monthly and paid in US dollars in arrears on the first day of each calendar month. The Company also agreed to granted UEC the right (the "Pre-Emptive Rights"), to subscribe for and to be issued up
to such number of the Company's common shares that will allow UEC to maintain its percentage ownership interest in the Company.

**B)** **C ORPORATE PROFILE AND MISSION** 

Anfield is a resource company engaged in mineral exploration and development in the United States. The Company is a reporting issuer in British Columbia and Alberta, and its common shares trade on the TSX Venture Exchange under the symbol "AEC", the OTCQB Marketplace under the symbol "ANLDF" and the Frankfurt Stock Exchange under the symbol "0AD".

The trend indicators for nuclear energy and the uranium sector are positive and point towards sustained increases in the uranium price -- as is now called for by many uranium analysts. Notably, China has announced the expected construction of 150 nuclear plants by 2030, Japan has restarted a number of reactors and is preparing for further re-starts, Europe is attempting to wean itself off of Russian oil and gas, and further energy-related sanctions as a result of Russia's attack on Ukraine may spill over to uranium ore and enrichment services. In addition, the global nuclear industry is moving forward strongly with 66 reactors currently being built, another 87 planned to come online in the next 10 years and hundreds more further back in the pipeline. Moreover, nuclear power is increasingly being seen as essential in providing new baseload electricity and meeting greenhouse gas emission targets. These developments, combined with the shuttering of producing mines and deferment or abandonment of many uranium projects in the current low-price environment, has likely created a uranium shortfall in in the near term. Anfield feels it is well positioned to benefit from the uranium market's current prospects as it continues to advance its plans to create a vertically-integrated uranium entity.

***Shootaring Canyon Mill, Velvet Wood and Slick Rock Uranium Projects***

**BRS Report – Preliminary Economic Assessment ("PEA")** 

The PEA indicates:

1) a pre-tax project internal rate of return ("IRR") of 40% and a net present value ("NPV") of US$238 million; and

2) a post-tax IRR of 33% and an NPV of $197 million, based on a discount rate of 8% and a uranium price of US$70 per pound, along with a vanadium price of US$12 per pound.

● Total weighted-average Direct OPEX (i.e., between Velvet-Wood and Slick Rock) estimated at US$244 per ton of mined and
processed material.

● The total cost to produce saleable uranium and vanadium products (i.e. Direct OPEX per ton plus CAPEX per ton) is
US$290 per ton, compared to an estimated gross value of US$741 per ton (based on a uranium price of US$70 per pound and a vanadium price of US$12 per pound).

● Average annual production of approximately 750,000 pounds of uranium and 2.5 million pounds of vanadium per year
is estimated over the 15-year mine life.

● The combined feed of the Velvet-Wood and Slick Rock mines is designed to meet the existing tonnage capacity at
Shootaring of 750 tons per day. Additional tonnage capacity would be available after year 8 of the plan.

● Estimated mill-related capital expenditures at Shootaring, including 25% contingency amount for each item, of: 1)
US$31.4 million for general upgrades; 2) US$13.4 million to install a modern vanadium circuit; and 3) US$20 million to update the tailings management facility.

● Estimated mine-related capital expenditures, including engineering and design, mine facilities, mine equipment, and
the reopening of the Velvet decline and the sinking of two production shafts at Slick Rock with a 25% contingency, of: 1) US$15.3 million for Velvet-Wood; and 2) US$27.2 million for Slick Rock.

**Shootaring Mill** 

The Shootaring Mill was licensed and constructed by Plateau Resources and operated in 1982. U.S. Energy and Uranium One were also previous owners of the Shootaring Mill. The mill has not been

**FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024** 

**AND THE SUBSEQUENT PERIOD ENDED APRIL 4, 2025** 

decommissioned and has been under care and maintenance since cessation of operations. The mill license has been maintained and Anfield has submitted its production reactivation plan for the Shootaring Canyon mill to the State of Utah's Department of Environmental Quality (UDEQ). The plan addresses the updating the mill's radioactive materials license from its current standby status to operational status and the increasing of both throughput capacity and the tripling of licensed production capacity.

Early-stage refurbishment of Shootaring will take place during the review of the restart application, preparing the Company to complete refurbishment as soon as the restart application is approved. The Company is targeting the mill restart in 2027.

With the application submitted to the UDEQ, the Company can prepare for uranium mill and tailings refurbishment and vanadium circuit construction. Steps include: the rough grading of the tailings pond cell area in advance of cell design approval; the moving of ore stockpiles and remediation of sections of the restricted area to establish a new radiation control boundary; the building of a new ore dump wall and transportation roads, along with a truck wash station; the demolition of all infrastructure to be replaced (e.g., electrical, controls, leach tanks); the installation of new generators, acid tanks and fuel tanks; the construction of the vanadium circuit building and counter-current decantation (CCD) circuit footers; the building of new ore pads where Velvet-Wood ore can be stockpiled in anticipation of mill restart; and the ordering of tanks and vessels needed for processing circuits, having equipment onsite and ready to install once the license is approved.

In July 2024, the Company received an affirmative completeness review from the State of Utah's Department of Environmental Quality (UDEQ) with respect to its Shootaring Mill production restart application. This affirmation allows for the detailed technical review of the mill application to proceed, which represents a critical step towards the restart of uranium production at Shootaring. The comprehensive application is designed to both update the mill's radioactive materials license from its current standby status to operational status and increase both throughput capacity and licensed output capacity at the mill.

**Velvet-Wood** 

Between 1979 and 1984, Atlas Minerals mined approximately 400,000 tons of ore from the Velvet Deposit at grades of 0.46% U<sub>3</sub>O<sub>8</sub> and 0.64% V<sub>2</sub>O<sub>5</sub>, recovering approximately 4 million pounds of U<sub>3</sub>O<sub>8</sub> and 5 million pounds of V<sub>2</sub>O<sub>5</sub>.

The current mineral resources (PEA) of the combined Velvet and Wood historical mines have been estimated to comprise 4.6 million pounds of eU<sub>3</sub>O<sub>8</sub>, at a grade of 0.29% eU<sub>3</sub>O<sub>8</sub> (measured and indicated resource), and 552,000 pounds of eU<sub>3</sub>O<sub>8</sub>, at a grade of 0.32% U<sub>3</sub>O<sub>8</sub> (inferred resource) with a vanadium- to-uranium ratio of 1.4 to 1.

In May 2024, the Company submitted its Plan of Operation for its Velvet-Wood mine to the State of Utah and BLM. This step is being undertaken as the Company advances Velvet-Wood to production-ready status concurrently with the Shootaring Canyon mill. This Plan of Operation includes specific operating actions and controls, reclamation actions, an estimate of reclamation surety based on third party costs and technical bases for how the actions meet the regulatory requirements of the State of Utah and the BLM.

**Slick Rock** 

Slick Rock is located in the Uravan Uranium Belt region of Colorado. The 2023 PEA estimates 1.7 million tons containing some 7.7 million pounds of U<sub>3</sub>O<sub>8</sub>, with a vanadium to uranium ratio of 6 to 1.

In June 2024, the Company received final approvals for its drill permit application to commence a 20-hole, 20,000-foot rotary drill program at its Slick Rock uranium and vanadium project, located in San Miguel County, Colorado. Permits approvals included the Bureau of Land Management, the Colorado Division of Resources Mining and Safety, and a Special Use Permit from San Miguel County, Colorado to allow access via county roads for the drilling project. The permits allow drilling between the months of June and September. On September 24, the Company announced that it had commenced the drill program at Slick Rock. On January 29, 2025, the Company announced that it has completed a 14-hole, 14,100-foot rotary drill program at its Slick Rock uranium and vanadium project. The Company will use the drill results to both upgrade its uranium and vanadium resource estimate for Slick Rock and prepare mine designs for a large mine permit for the project.

**Project Economics** 

The PEA provides for a two-year pre-production period. The first year's forecasted capital expenditures of approximately US$24 million include initial mill and mine permitting and licensing, an updated mining and reclamation plan, and initiation of mine-development.

The second year's capital expenditures, forecasted at US$88 million (including a 25% contingency), include completion of the construction of mine facilities and purchasing of equipment, and refurbishment of the Shootaring uranium and vanadium mill.

Total capital for life of mine is estimated at US$130 million, including sustaining capital. Total weighted direct operating costs (including mining and handling, haulage and processing, bonding, royalties and taxes) between Velvet-Wood and Slick Rock is estimated at US$244 per ton of mined and processed material. The total direct costs (including direct mine costs and CAPEX cost per ton of processed material) is estimated at US$290 per ton, while the gross value per processed ton of uranium and vanadium at US$70 per pound of uranium and US$12 per pound of vanadium is US$791.

The PEA indicates a pre-tax IRR of 40% at a uranium price of US$70 per pound and US$12 per pound of vanadium. The pre-tax NPV of the project at an 8% discount rate at the aforementioned prices is US$238 million. On a post-tax basis, the resultant IRR is 33% and the NPV is US$197 million.

**Surface Stockpiles** 

In addition to the estimated mineral resource at Velvet-Wood, Anfield controls mineralized stockpiles from past mining at two locations: 1) one stockpile at the Patty Ann mine area near the historic Velvet mine; and 2) several stockpiles near the Shootaring mill. The volumes and uranium content of the stockpiles were estimated from volumetric surveys and sampling conducted by BRS in March, 2015. The PEA includes the stockpiles located near the Shootaring mill only. In total these stockpiles are estimated to contain approximately 77,500 tons of material at an average grade of 0.161% U3O8 and contain approximately 250,000 pounds of uranium.

***The West Slope Project***

The West Slope Project, located in Montrose and San Miguel Counties of southwestern Colorado, consists of nine Department of Energy (DOE) leases, associated with adjacent lode mining claims and leases, covering 6,913 acres on which past uranium production has taken place. Between 1977 and 2006, approximately 1.3Mlbs of uranium and 6.6Mlbs of vanadium were produced from these mines. In 2022, BRS Engineering, Inc. was commissioned by Anfield to complete a mineral resource estimate for four of the nine uranium and vanadium properties – known as JD-6, JD-7, JD-8 and JD-9 – contained within its 100% owned West Slope project (US DOE Uranium/Vanadium Leases JD-6, JD-7, JD-8 and JD-9 Montrose County, Colorado, USA, Mineral Resource Technical Report, April 10, 2022). Using available data and using a cut-off of 0.05% uranium, BRS estimated an in-place Indicated Resource of 1.4Mt of uranium at an average grade of 0.197% for a total of 5.4Mlbs of uranium and an in-place Inferred resource of 1.4Mt of vanadium at an average grade of 0.984% for a total of 27Mlbs of vanadium.

Exploration and evaluation expenditures increased by $858,090 mainly due to an increase of $647,789 in drilling expense, an increase of $95,092 in consulting, an increase of $118,422 in sundry, an increase of $97,192 in property tax, an increase of $12,297 in lease and royalty payments, and offsetting by a decrease in $46,014 in sampling expense and a decrease of $66,775 in license, filing and insurance as the various engineering studies relating to re-evaluating certain properties and a report on the re-start of the Shootaring mill have been completed in Q4 of 2023.

General and administrative expenses increased by $285,490 mainly due to an increase of $903,790 in legal fees, an increase of $32,000 in marketing expense, an increase of $11,676 in tax expense, an increase in $15,376 in accounting and audit fees, and offsetting by a decrease of $660,601 in consulting fees. Shareholder communications increased by $28,653 as a result of increased investor engagement.

Share based compensation in 2023 represents the value of stock options granted to directors, officers and consultants granted in the period. The Company did not have any stock based compensation in 2024.

The foreign exchange amounts arose from the restating of US dollar-denominated cash, payables and loan balances due to the fluctuation of the Canadian dollar.

**FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024** 

**AND THE SUBSEQUENT PERIOD ENDED APRIL 4, 2025** 

Exploration and evaluation expenditures increased by $1,508,573 mainly due to an increase of $550,496 in license, filing and insurance expense, an increase of $711,154 related to lease and royalty payments, an increase of $691,309 in drilling expense, an increase of $52,840 in sundry expense and offsetting by a decrease of $19,525 in sampling expense, a decrease in $707,586 in consulting fees as the various engineering studies relating to re-evaluating certain properties and a report on the re-start of the Shootaring mill have been completed in Q4 of 2023. The Company also terminated an acquisition agreement resulting in a loss of $225,608 of deposit and other related costs.

General and administrative expenses increased by $1,238,482 mainly due to an increase of $217,039 in office expense, an increase of $225,039 in accounting and audit fees, an increase of $1,052,358 in legal fees, and offsetting by a decrease of $85,601 in professional fees, a decrease of $64,459 in filing fees and a decrease of $112,783 in consulting fees.

Shareholder communications increased by $89,995 as a result of increased investor engagement.

The foreign exchange amounts arose from the restating of US dollar-denominated cash, payables and loan balances due to the fluctuation of the Canadian dollar.

**F)** **L IQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES** 

At December 31, 2024, the Company had working capital deficit of $5,304,666 as compared working capital of $3,623,231 at December 31, 2023. There are insufficient funds to meet all property commitments as they now stand. The Company's continuation as a going concern is dependent upon the successful results from its mineral property exploration activities and its ability to attain profitable operations and generate funds there from and/or raise equity capital or borrowings sufficient to meet current and future obligations. While these factors indicate the existence of a material uncertainty that casts significant doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern, subsequent to December 31, 2024 the Company completed an equity financing for gross proceeds of $15,000,000 and amended an existing credit facility to provide an additional US$6,000,000 of capital. Management intends to continue to finance operating costs and expenditures over the next twelve months with loans from directors and companies controlled by directors and or private placements of common shares, to meet future commitments or may seek extensions to the exploration schedule, however, there are no guarantees that the Company can do so in the future.

**K)** **C HANGES TO ACCOUNTING POLICIES** 

***Accounting standards effective January 1, 2024***

In January 2020, the IASB issued Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-current (Amendments to IAS 1), which amended IAS 1 to clarify the requirements for presenting liabilities in the statement of financial position. The amendments specify that the Company must have the right to defer settlement of a liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period for the liability to be classified as non-current.

In addition, the amendments clarify that: (a) the Company's right to defer settlement must exist at the end of the reporting period; (b) classification is unaffected by management's intentions or expectations about whether the Company will exercise its right to defer settlement; (c) if the Company's right to defer settlement is subject to the Company complying with specified conditions, the right exists at the end of the reporting period only if the Company complies with those conditions at the end of the reporting period, even if the lender does not test compliance until a later date; and (d) the term settlement includes the transfer of the Company's own equity instruments to the counterparty that results in the extinguishment of the liability, except when the settlement of the liability with the Company transferring

**Anfield Energy Inc.** 

**Management Discussion and Analysis** 

**FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024** 

**AND THE SUBSEQUENT PERIOD ENDED APRIL 4, 2025** 

its own equity instruments is at the option of the counterparty and such option has been classified as an equity instrument, separate from the host liability.

In October 2022, the IASB issued Non-current Liabilities with Covenants, which amended IAS 1 to clarify that if the Company's right to defer settlement of a liability for at least 12 months is subject to the Company complying with covenants after the reporting period, those covenants would not affect whether the Company's right to defer settlement exists at the end of the reporting period for the purposes of classifying a liability as current or non-current. The amendments also increased the disclosure requirement relating to such covenants to include: (i) the nature of the covenants and the date by which the Company must comply with the covenants; (ii) whether the Company would comply with the covenants based on its circumstances at the reporting date; and (iii) whether and how the Company expects to comply with the covenants by the date on which they are contractually required to be tested. The above amendments are effective for the Company's annual reporting period beginning on January 1, 2024.

At Decemeber 31, 2024, the Company was in compliance with all covenants. The impacts of initial application of the amendments on the Company's consolidated financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2024 and for future periods will depend on the Company's right to defer settlement of its liabilities at the end of such reporting period and can include increased disclosure in respect of its compliance with related covenants.

Other accounting standards or amendments to existing accounting standards that have been issued but have future effective dates are either not applicable or are not expected to have a significant impact on the Company's financial statements.

**L)** **C OMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES** 

**COMMITMENTS** 

As at the date of this report, the Company had no commitments other than those mentioned in the consolidated financial statements and described in the exploration and evaluation assets note in the consolidated financial statements.

**CONTINGENCIES** 

The Company's exploration activities are subject to various federal, provincial and international laws and regulations governing the protection of the environment. These laws and regulations are continually changing and generally becoming more restrictive. The Company conducts its operations so as to protect public health and the environment and believes its operations are materially in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations. The Company has made, and expects to make in the future, expenditures to comply with such laws and regulations.

**CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES** 

Significant areas requiring the use of critical accounting estimates include the recoverability of the carrying value of property and equipment and exploration and evaluation assets, fair value measurements for financial instruments and share-based compensation and other equity-based payments, the recognition and valuation of provisions for restoration and environmental liabilities, purchase price allocation and the recoverability and measurement of deferred tax assets and liabilities. Actual results may differ from those estimates and judgments.

**FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024** 

**AND THE SUBSEQUENT PERIOD ENDED APRIL 4, 2025** 

**M)** **RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES** 

The Company is in the business of acquiring, exploring and developing uranium properties. It is exposed to a number of risks and uncertainties that are common to other mineral exploration companies in the same business. The industry is capital intensive at all stages and is subjected to variations in commodity prices, market sentiment, exchange rates for currency, inflations and other risks. The Company currently has no source of revenue other than interest income. The Company will rely mainly on equity financing to fund exploration activities on its mineral properties.

The risks and uncertainties described in this section are considered by management to be the most important in the context of the Company's business. The risks and uncertainties below are not inclusive of all the risks and uncertainties the Company may be subject to and other risks may apply.

**1.** **Financial risks** 

The Company's financial instruments consist of cash, accounts payable and due to related parties. The carrying values of cash, accounts payable and due to related parties approximate their fair values due to the relatively short period to maturity of those financial instruments.

The Company is exposed to credit risk with respect to its cash. Cash have been placed on deposit with a major Canadian, financial institutions. Credit risk arises from the non-performance of counterparties of contractual financial obligations. The Company manages credit risk, in respect of cash and cash equivalents, by purchasing term deposits held at a major Canadian financial institution. The Company has secondary exposure to credit risk on its receivables. The receivables consists of refundable good and services tax from the government. Credit risk is assessed as low.

Liquidity risk is the risk that an entity will encounter difficulty in raising funds to meet commitments associated with financial instruments. The Company manages liquidity by maintaining adequate cash balances to meet liabilities as they become due. The Company's expected source of cash flow in the upcoming year will be through equity financings. As at December 31, 2024, the Company had working capital deficit of $5,304,666 (December 31, 2023 – working capital of $3,623,231). Liquidity risk is assessed as high.

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. As at December 31, 2024, the Company loan payable of US$3,625,128 is subject to interest rate risk. The loan payable incurs interest based on the SOFR plus 5.0% per annum, payable semi-annually in U.S. dollars. The Company, with written notice, may elect to capitalize the interest payable on the Credit Facility semi- annually, in arrears, at a rate of SOFR plus 7.0%.

Foreign exchange risk is the risk arising from changes in foreign currency fluctuations. The Company does not use any derivative instruments to reduce its exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency rates.

Commodity risk is the risk that the value of future cash flows and profits will fluctuate based on the prices of commodities. The Company is exposed to changes in the price of commodities. Changes in the price of commodities will impact the Company's ability to obtain financing to explore its exploration and evaluation assets.

At December 31, 2024, the Company had accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $1,651,411 (December 31, 2023 – $556,271). The Company's current liabilities are due on demand and have a term of less than 1 year. The loan payable is due on September 26, 2028.

**Anfield Energy Inc.** 

**Management Discussion and Analysis** 

**FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024** 

**AND THE SUBSEQUENT PERIOD ENDED APRIL 4, 2025** 

**2.** **Going Concern** 

The Company's capability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to obtain additional debt or equity financing to meet its obligations as they come due. If the Company were unable to continue as a going concern, then significant adjustments would be required to the carrying value of assets and liabilities, and to the balance sheet classifications currently used.

The Company has no history of profitable operations and its present business is at an early stage. As such, the Company is subject to many risks common to other companies in the same business, including under-capitalization, cash shortages, and limitations with respect to personnel, financial and other resources and the lack of revenues.

The Company plans to obtain financing in the future primarily through further equity financing or debt financing, as well as through joint venturing and/or optioning out the Company's properties to qualified mineral exploration companies. There can be no assurance that the Company will succeed in obtaining additional financing, now or in the future. Failure to raise additional financing on a timely basis could cause the Company to suspend its operation and eventually to forfeit or sell its interest in its exploration and evaluation assets.

Management has initiated a strict cost control program to effectively control expenditures. In addition, Management will review several funding options including equity financing and seeking joint venture partners to further its mineral property interests at the appropriate time. While the Company has been successful in raising funds in the past, there are no assurances that additional funding and/or suitable joint venture agreements will be obtained.

**3.** **Exploration and Mining Risks** 

The business of exploration for minerals and mining involves a high degree of risk. Few properties that are explored are ultimately developed into producing mines. At present, the Company's properties have no known body of commercial ore. Unusual or unexpected formations, formation pressures, fires, power outages, labor disruptions, flooding, explorations, cave-ins, landslides and the inability to obtain suitable adequate machinery, equipment or labor are other risks involved in the operation of mines and the conduct of exploration programs. The Company has relied on and may continue to rely upon consultants and others for exploration and development expertise. Substantial expenditures are required to establish ore reserves through drilling, to develop metallurgical processes to extract the metal from the ore and, in the case of new properties, to develop the mining and processing facilities and infrastructure at any site chosen for mining. Although substantial benefits may be derived from the discovery of a major mineral deposit, no assurance can be given that minerals will be discovered in sufficient quantities to justify commercial operations or that funds required for development can be obtained on a timely basis. The economics of developing uranium is affected by many factors including the cost of operations, variations in the grade of ore mined, fluctuations in metal markets, costs of processing equipment and such other factors as government regulations, including regulations relating to royalties, allowable production, importing and exporting of minerals and environmental protection. The Company has no producing mines at this time. Most exploration projects do not result in the discovery of commercially mineable deposits of ore. The transfer application is the first step in the process of restarting the Shootaring Mill.

**Management Discussion and Analysis** 

**FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024** 

**AND THE SUBSEQUENT PERIOD ENDED APRIL 4, 2025** 

**4.** **Development Risks** 

The marketability of any minerals which may be acquired or discovered by the Company may be affected by numerous factors which are beyond the control of the Company and which cannot be accurately predicted, such as market fluctuations, the proximity and capacity of milling facilities, mineral markets and processing equipment, and such other factors as government regulations, including regulations relating to royalties, allowable production, importing and exporting of minerals, and environmental protection.

**5.** **Loss of Interest in and Value of Properties** 

The Company's ability to maintain its interests in its exploration and evaluation assets and to fund ongoing development costs will be entirely dependent on its ability to raise additional funds by equity financings. If the Company is unable to raise such funds it may suffer dilution or loss of its interest in its exploration and evaluation assets. The amounts attributed to the Company's interests in exploration and evaluation assets in its financial statements represent acquisition and exploration costs, and should not be taken to reflect realizable value.

**6.** **Financing Risks** 

The Company has no history of earnings and no source of operating cash flow and, due to the nature of its business, there can be no assurance that the Company will be profitable. The Company has paid no dividends on its shares since incorporation and does not anticipate doing so in the foreseeable future. The only present source of funds available to the Company is through the sale of its equity shares. Even if the results of exploration or development are encouraging, the Company may not have sufficient funds to conduct the further development that may be necessary to determine whether or not a commercially mineable deposit exists. While the Company may generate additional working capital through further equity offerings or through the sale or possible syndication of its property, there is no assurance that any such funds will be available. If available, future equity financings may result in substantial dilution to purchasers under the Offering. At present it is impossible to determine what amounts of additional funds, if any, may be required.

**7.** **Uranium Price** 

The uranium mining industry in general is intensely competitive and there is no assurance that, even if commercial quantities of ore are discovered, a profitable market may exist for the sale of minerals produced by the Company. Factors beyond the control of the Company may affect the marketability of any substances discovered. Mineral prices, in particular uranium prices, have fluctuated widely in recent years. The marketability of minerals is also affected by numerous other factors beyond the control of the Company. These other factors include government regulations relating to price, royalties, allowable production and importing and exporting of minerals.

**8.** **Uninsurable Risks** 

In the course of exploration, development and production of mineral properties, certain risks, and in particular, unexpected or unusual geological operating conditions including rock bursts, cave- ins, fires, flooding and earthquakes may occur. It is not always possible to fully insure against such risks and the Company may decide not to take out insurance against such risks as a result of high premiums or other reasons. Should such liabilities arise, they could reduce or eliminate any future profitability and result in increasing costs and a decline in the value of the securities of the Company.

**Management Discussion and Analysis** 

**FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024** 

**AND THE SUBSEQUENT PERIOD ENDED APRIL 4, 2025** 

**9.** **Environmental and Other Regulatory Requirements** 

Existing and possible future environmental legislation, regulations and actions could cause significant expense, capital expenditures, restrictions and delays in the activities of the Company, the extent of which cannot be predicted and which may well be beyond the capacity of the Company to fund. The Company's right to exploit the mining properties is subject to various reporting requirements and to obtaining certain government approvals and there is no assurance that such approvals, including environmental approvals, will be obtained without inordinate delay or at all.

**10.** **No Assurance of Titles, Boundaries or Surface Rights** 

The Company has investigated rights of ownership of all of the mineral properties in which it has an interest and, to the best of its knowledge, all agreements relating to such ownership rights are in good standing. However, all properties may be subject to prior claims or agreement transfers, and rights of ownership may be affected by undetected defects. While to the best of the Company's knowledge, title to all properties in which it has the right to acquire an interest is in good standing, this should not be construed as a guarantee of title. Other parties may dispute title to the mining properties in which the Company has the right to acquire an interest. The properties may be subject to prior unregistered agreements or transfers or native land claims and title may be affected by undetected defects or the statutes referred to above.

**11.** **Permits and Licenses** 

The operations of the Company may require licenses and permits from various governmental authorities. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain all necessary licenses and permits that may be required to carry out exploration, development and mining operations at its projects.

**12.** **Inability to Meet Cost Contribution Requirements** 

The Company may, in the future, be unable to meet its share of costs incurred under agreements to which it is a party and the Company may as a result, be subject to loss of its rights to acquire interests in the properties subject to such agreements.

**13.** **Reliance on Key Personnel** 

The nature of the business of the Company, the ability of the Company to continue its exploration and development activities and to thereby develop a competitive edge in the marketplace depends, in a large part, on the ability of the Company to attract and maintain qualified key management personnel. Competition for such personnel is intense, and there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to attract and retain such personnel. The development of the Company now and in the future, will depend on the efforts of key management figures, the loss of whom could have a material adverse effect on the Company. The Company does not currently maintain key-man life insurance on any of the key management employees.

***CONFLICTS OF INTEREST***

The directors and officers of the Company may serve as directors or officers, or may be associated with, other reporting companies, or have significant shareholdings in other public companies. To the extent that such other companies may participate in business or asset acquisitions, dispositions, or ventures in which the Company may participate, the directors and officers of the Company may have a conflict of interest in negotiating and concluding on terms with respect to the transaction. If a conflict of interest arises, the Company will follow the provisions of the *Business Corporations Act (BC)* ("Corporations Act") dealing with conflict of interest. These provisions state that where a director has such a conflict, that director must, at a meeting of the Company's directors, disclose his or her interest and refrain from voting on the matter unless otherwise permitted by the Corporations Act. In accordance with the laws of the Province of British Columbia, the directors and officers of the Company are required to act honestly, in good faith, and in the best interest of the Company.

**Anfield Energy Inc.** 

**Notes to the Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements** 

**For the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024** 

**(Unaudited – Expressed in Canadian Dollars)** 

**1.** **NATURE OF OPERATIONS** 

Anfield Energy Inc. (the "Company") is a publicly listed company incorporated in British Columbia on July 12, 1989. The Company's shares are listed on the TSX Venture Exchange ("TSX.V") under the symbol "AEC", the OTCQB Marketplace under the symbol "ANLDF", and the Frankfurt Stock Exchange under the symbol "OAD". On September 16, 2022, 1,666,667 warrants of the Company commenced trading on TSX.V under the symbol "AEC.WT". The Company is engaged in mineral development and production. The Company's head office and its registered and records offices are located at Suite 2005, 4390 Grange Street, Burnaby, British Columbia, V5H 1P6.

Effective August 1, 2025, the Company completed a share consolidation of its outstanding common shares on a 75-for-1 basis. The share and per share figures in these condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been retroactively adjusted to reflect this share consolidation.

**2.** **MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICY INFORMATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**a)** **BASIS OF PREPARATION AND STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE** 

These unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard ("IAS") 34, "*Interim Financial Reporting*" of the IFRS Accounting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB"). These condensed interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended December 31, 2024 as some disclosures from the annual consolidated financial statements have been condensed or omitted.

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis except for financial instruments measured at fair value.

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements comprise the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries incorporated in the United States which include Equinox Exploration Holding Corp. ("EQX US"), Anfield Resources Holding Corp. ('ARHC"), ARH Wyoming Corp. ("ARHW"), Highbury Resources Inc. ("HRI"), Anfield Precious Metals Inc. ("APMI") and Neutron Energy, Inc. ("NEI"). All inter-company transactions, balances, income and expenses are eliminated on consolidation.

The Company reclassified amounts under investing activities to separate out $375,972 for investment income reinvested from reclamation bonds. The change in presentation did not have an effect on the Company's total assets, net assets, results from operations, loss per share or net cash flows.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**b)** **SIGNIFICANT MANAGEMENT JUDGEMENT AND ESTIMATES IN APPLYING ACCOUNTING POLICIES** 

***Significant estimates and assumptions***

The timely preparation of the condensed interim consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingencies, if any, as at the date of the interim consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the period. By their nature, estimates are subject to measurement uncertainty and changes in such estimates in future years could require a material change in the condensed interim consolidated financial statements.

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements were prepared using accounting policies, estimates and judgments consistent with those in the audited consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended December 31, 2024.

**2.** **MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICY INFORMATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION (CONTINUED)** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**c)** **ACCOUNTING STANDARDS NOT YET EFFECTIVE** 

In April 2024, the IASB issues IFRS 18 *Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements* ("IFRS 18"), which will replace IAS 1 and includes requirements for all entities applying IFRS Accounting Standards for the presentation and disclosure of information in the financial statements. IFRS 18 will introduce new totals, subtotals, and categories for income and expenses I the statement of income, as well as requiring disclosure about management-defined performance measures and additional requirements regarding the aggregation and disaggregation of certain information. It will be effective on January 1, 2027, with earlier adoption permitted, and it must be adopted on a retrospective basis. The Company is currently evaluating the impact on its financial statements.

Other accounting standards or amendments to existing accounting standards that have been issued but have future effective dates are either not applicable or are not expected to have a significant impact on the Company's financial statements.

*Reclamation Bonds* 

The Company is required to hold replacement bonds to meet reclamation requirements in connection with the Shootaring Mill.

On February 20, 2025, the Company entered into an Indemnification Support Agreement with Uranium Energy Corp. ("UEC") whereby UEC will provide indemnification support limited to US$3,000,000 (the "Support Amount") in connection with certain bonding requirements relating to Shootaring Canyon Mill. In consideration for the provision of the indemnity, the Company agrees to pay to UEC a cash support fee equal to the Support Amount multiplied by the secured overnight financing rate ("SOFR") as administered by the CME Group Benchmark Administration Limited plus 5% per annum, which fee shall be calculated monthly and paid in US dollars in arrears on the first day of each calendar month. The Company also agreed to granted UEC the right (the "Pre-Emptive Rights"), to subscribe for and to be issued up to such number of the Company's common shares that will allow UEC to maintain its percentage ownership interest in the Company.

During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company recorded a bond premium of US$470,857 as insurance, which would create an obligation for the surety company to cover the difference between the bond requirement and the cash collateral. The bond premium is amortized over one year. During the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company recorded $337,592 (2024 - $265,406) as insurance expense and at June 30, 2025, $103,889 (December 31, 2024 - $372,736) was recorded in prepaid insurance premium for the reclamation bond requirements.

At June 30, 2025, the Company recorded the cash collateral of US$11,891,028 ($16,208,660) (December 31, 2024 – US$11,129,593 ($16,028,060)) as a reclamation bond.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**a)** **CREDIT FACILITY (CONTINUED)** 

On October 6, 2023, the Company received proceeds of US$2,839,875, net of the original issue discount of US$218,452 ($300,000), arrangement fee of US$72,817 ($100,000) and an initial foreign exchange loss of US$72,817.

The Credit Facility contains a mandatory prepayment clause where the Company must pay certain amount of proceeds from sale of secured assets, debt financings, or royalty sale transactions, to the Agent.

The Credit Facility is secured by a corporate guarantee and share pledge from each of the subsidiaries of the Company and contains certain other customary provisions, including certain covenants and default conditions in favour of the Lender.

The Credit Facility is a compound financial instrument which consists of two components: the loan (a financial liability) and the warrants (an equity instrument). The Company assessed each of the components separately and allocated the proceeds from the Credit Facility and financing costs as follows:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **Credit Facility**<br> **(USD)** | **Financing costs**<br> **(USD)** | **Credit Facility (net of** <br> **financing costs)** <br> **(USD)**  |
|  Financial liability | $2188982 | $161418 | $2027564 |
|  Warrants | 650893 | 47998 | 602895 |
|  **Total** | $**2839875** | **$209416** | **$2630459** |

---

The initial carrying amount of the financial liability was determined by discounting the estimated future interest and principal payments at a discount rate of 20.5%.

The carrying amounts of the equity component (the warrants) was established using the residual fair value approach, which takes the difference between the principal amount received from the Credit Facility (US$2,839,875) less the fair value of the loan. The value of the warrants of $827,956 (US$602,895), net of financing cost of $65,915 (US$47,998) is recorded within warrant reserves on the statement of financial position.

On March 27, 2024, the Company elected to capitalize the first interest payment of $292,809 (US$203,321) on the Credit Facility, effective April 5, 2024. On October 4, 2024, the Company elected to capitalize the second interest payment of $313,727 (US$217,846) on the Credit Facility. On April 4, 2025, the Company elected to capitalize the third interest payment of $316,038 (US$222,327) on the Credit Facility.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**a)** **C REDIT F ACILITY (CONTINUED)** 

On April 15, 2024, the Company entered into a waiver and second amending agreement to the Loan Agreement with Extract Advisors LLC and Extract Capital Master Fund Ltd., whereby: (a) the lender agreed to waive application of a covenant in order to permit the acquisition of the DOE Leases by the Company on January 2, 2024; (b) the Credit Facility was amended by reducing the minimum working capital requirement to $250,000; and (c) the Credit Facility was amended by requiring written consent of the agent prior to taking any corporate action to effect a share consolidation or stock split, unless the market price exceeds $9.00 per share for 20 consecutive trading days. In consideration for entering into the waiver and second amending agreement, on June 26, 2024, the Company issued the lender 53,333 share purchase warrants with a fair value of $250,109. The share purchase warrants are exercisable at a price of $7.125 per warrant until September 26, 2028. The fair value of $250,109 which was incurred as part of the modification was added to the liability and will be amortized over the term of the modified liability.

On March 17, 2025, the Company entered into an amending agreement (the "Amending Agreement") with Extract Advisors LLC ("Extract") for the extension of an additional US$6,000,000 increase to the existing Credit Facility. In connection with the Amending Agreement, the Company issued 799,000 share purchase warrants to Extract (the "Facility Warrants"), with each such Facility Warrant entitling the holder thereof to acquire one common share of the Company at an exercise price of $11.25 per share for a period ending on September 26, 2028. In addition, the Company paid an arrangement fee of $200,000 in consideration for the amendment and incurred legal fees of $96,247.

The additional US$6,000,000 loan ("2025 tranche") is a compound financial instrument which consists of two components: the loan (a financial liability) and the warrants (an equity instrument). The Company assessed each of the components separately and allocated the proceeds from the 2025 tranche and financing costs as follows:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **Credit Facility**<br> **(USD)** | **Financing costs**<br> **(USD)** | **Credit Facility (net of** <br> **financing costs)** <br> **(USD)**  |
|  Financial liability | $5619447 | $204613 | $5414834 |
|  Warrants | 380553 | 4445 | 376108 |
|  **Total** | $**6000000** | **$209058** | **$5790942** |

---

The initial carrying amount of the financial liability was determined by discounting the estimated future interest and principal payments at a discount rate of 15%.

The carrying amounts of the equity component (the warrants) was established using the residual fair value approach, which takes the difference between the principal amount received from the Credit Facility (US$6,000,000) less the fair value of the loan. The value of the warrants of $539,266 (US$380,553), net of financing cost of $6,299 (US$4,445) is recorded within warrant reserves on the statement of financial position.

The carrying value of the loans will be accreted using the effective interest rate method over the term of the Credit Facility. The effective interest rate for the 2023 tranche and 2025 tranche is estimated at 23.74% and 15.10%, respectively.

**12.** **SEGMENTED INFORMATION** 

The Company's property and equipment, exploration and evaluation assets and its related reclamation bonds and insurance, by geographical areas as at June 30, 2025, and December 31, 2024, were all located in USA. The Company operates in one operating segment being the exploration and evaluation of mineral properties.

**13.** **CAPITAL MANAGEMENT** 

The Company's objectives when managing capital are to safeguard its ability to pursue the evaluation and exploration of its mineral exploration properties and to maintain a flexible capital structure, which optimizes the costs of capital at an acceptable risk. In the management of capital, the Company includes the components of share capital as well as cash. The Company manages the capital structure and makes adjustments to it in light of changes in economic conditions and the risk characteristics of the underlying assets. To maintain or adjust its capital structure, the Company may issue new shares, acquire or dispose of assets, or adjust the amount of cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments. In order to maximize ongoing development efforts, the Company does not pay out dividends. The Company is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements. There were no changes during the year to management's approach to capital management. The Company's investment policy is to invest its excess cash in highly liquid investments that are readily convertible into cash with maturities of six months or less from the original date of acquisition or when it is needed, selected with regards to the expected timing of expenditures from continuing operations.

**14.** **FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**a)** **FAIR VALUE** 

The carrying values of cash, accounts payable, and due to related parties approximate their fair values due to the relatively short period to maturity of those financial instruments. The carrying value of the long-term debt approximates its fair value due to the floating rate interest charged under the credit facility. Financial instruments recorded at fair value on the statements of financial position are classified using a fair value hierarchy.

The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability either directly (i.e., as prices) or indirectly (i.e., derived from prices); and

Level 3: Inputs that are not based on observable market data.

As at June 30, 2025, the financial instruments recorded at fair value on the statement of financial position are cash and marketable securities which are measured using Level 1, and the financial instruments recorded at amortized cost are reclamation bonds.

The following are the contractual maturities of financial liabilities as at June 30, 2025:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **< 1 Year** | **1-2 Years** | **3-5 Years** |

**15.** **FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT** 

**FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT**

***CREDIT RISK***

Credit risk is the risk that one party to a financial instrument will fail to discharge an obligation and cause the other party to incur a financial loss. The Company's primary exposure to credit risk is on its cash held in bank accounts. The majority of cash is deposited in bank accounts held with major banks in Canada. As the Company's cash is held by one bank there is a concentration of credit risk. This risk is managed by using a major bank that is high credit quality financial institutions as determined by rating agencies. The Company has secondary exposure to credit risk on its receivables. The receivables consist of refundable goods and services tax from the government. Credit risk is assessed as low.

***LIQUIDITY RISK***

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Company has a planning and budgeting process in place to help determine the funds required to support the Company's normal operating requirements on an ongoing basis. The Company ensures that there are sufficient funds to meet its short-term business requirements, taking into account its anticipated cash flows from operations and its holdings of cash. Historically, the Company's sole source of funding has been the issuance of equity securities for cash, primarily through private placements. The Company's access to financing is always uncertain. There can be no assurance of continued access to significant equity funding. Liquidity risk is assessed as low.

The Company's current liabilities are due on demand or have a term of less than a year. The Company's long- term liabilities consist of a credit facility which is due on September 26, 2028.

**15.** **FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (CONTINUED)** 

**FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (CONTINUED)** 

***INTEREST RATE RISK*** 

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. As at June 30, 2025, the Company loan payable of US$9,885,055 is subject to interest rate risk. The loan payable incurs interest based on the SOFR plus 5.0% per annum, payable semi-annually in U.S. dollars. The Company, with written notice, may elect to capitalize the interest payable on the Credit Facility semi-annually, in arrears, at a rate of SOFR plus 7.0%. If interest rates on the Company's credit facility increased (decreased) by 100 basis points with all other variables held constant, finance costs on the credit facility would increase (decreased) by $134,743.

***FOREIGN CURRENCY RISK***

Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair values of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because they are denominated in currencies that differ from the respective functional currency. The foreign currency risk for the Company is low as the foreign currencies held are in the functional currency of the entities. A 10% change in the US dollar will affect profit/loss by approximately $1,429,748.

***COMMODITY RISK***

Commodity risk is the risk that the value of future cash flows and profits will fluctuate based on the prices of commodities. The Company is exposed to changes in the price of commodities. Changes in the price of commodities will impact the Company's ability to obtain financing to explore its exploration and evaluation assets.

As at June 30, 2025, the Company has no contracts or agreements in place to mitigate these price risks.

**16.** **SUBSEQUENT EVENTS** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;a) Effective August 1, 2025, the Company completed a share consolidation of its outstanding common shares on a 75-for-1 basis. The share and per share figures in these condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been retroactively adjusted to reflect this share
consolidation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;b) Subsequent to the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company received aggregate proceeds of $1,602,214 upon the
exercise of 251,512 warrants exercisable at $6.375 per share and 200 warrants exercisable at $4.125 per share.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;c) Subsequent to the six months ended June 30, 2025, a total of 81,806 warrants exercisable at $6.375 per share expired
unexercised.

**A)** **GENERAL** 

This Management's Discussion and Analysis of Anfield Energy Inc. (the "Company", "Anfield" or "AEC") is dated August 20, 2025 and provides an analysis of Anfield's financial position and results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and subsequent period ended August 20, 2025. The following information should be read in conjunction with the condensed interim consolidated financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2025, and related notes, which are available on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.com or at the Company's website: <u>www.anfieldenergy.com</u>.

**B)** **CORPORATE PROFILE AND MISSION** 

Anfield is a resource company engaged in mineral exploration and development in the United States. The Company is a reporting issuer in British Columbia and Alberta, and its common shares trade on the TSX Venture Exchange under the symbol "AEC", the OTCQB Marketplace under the symbol "ANLDF" and the Frankfurt Stock Exchange under the symbol "0AD".

The trend indicators for nuclear energy and the uranium sector are positive and point towards sustained increases in the uranium price — as is now called for by many uranium analysts. Notably, China has announced the expected construction of 150 nuclear plants by 2030, Japan has restarted a number of reactors and is preparing for further re-starts, Europe is attempting to wean itself off of Russian oil and gas, and further energy-related sanctions as a result of Russia's attack on Ukraine may spill over to uranium ore and enrichment services. In addition, the global nuclear industry is moving forward strongly with 69 reactors currently being built, another 114 planned to come online in the next 10 years and hundreds more further back in the pipeline. Moreover, nuclear power is increasingly being seen as essential in providing new baseload electricity and meeting greenhouse gas emission targets. These developments, combined with the shuttering of producing mines and deferment or abandonment of many uranium projects in the current low-price environment, has likely created a uranium shortfall in in the near term. Anfield feels it is well positioned to benefit from the uranium market's current prospects as it continues to advance its plans to create a vertically-integrated uranium entity.

***Shootaring Canyon Mill, Velvet Wood and Slick Rock Uranium Projects***

**BRS Report – Preliminary Economic Assessment ("PEA")** 

The PEA indicates:

1) a pre-tax project internal rate of return ("IRR") of 40% and a net present value ("NPV") of US$238 million; and

2) a post-tax IRR of 33% and an NPV of $197 million, based on a discount rate of 8% and a uranium price of US$70 per pound, along with a vanadium price of US$12 per pound.

• Total weighted-average Direct OPEX (i.e., between Velvet-Wood and Slick Rock) estimated at US$244 per ton of mined and
processed material.

• The total cost to produce saleable uranium and vanadium products (i.e. Direct OPEX per ton plus CAPEX per ton) is
US$290 per ton, compared to an estimated gross value of US$741 per ton (based on a uranium price of US$70 per pound and a vanadium price of US$12 per pound).

• Average annual production of approximately 750,000 pounds of uranium and 2.5 million pounds of vanadium per year
is estimated over the 15-year mine life.

• The combined feed of the Velvet-Wood and Slick Rock mines is designed to meet the existing tonnage capacity at
Shootaring of 750 tons per day. Additional tonnage capacity would be available after year 8 of the plan.

• Estimated mill-related capital expenditures at Shootaring, including 25% contingency amount for each item, of: 1)
US$31.4 million for general upgrades; 2) US$13.4 million to install a modern vanadium circuit; and 3) US$20 million to update the tailings management facility.

• Estimated mine-related capital expenditures, including engineering and design, mine facilities, mine equipment, and
the reopening of the Velvet decline and the sinking of two production shafts at Slick Rock with a 25% contingency, of: 1) US$15.3 million for Velvet-Wood; and 2) US$27.2 million for Slick Rock.

**Shootaring Mill** 

The Shootaring Mill was licensed and constructed by Plateau Resources and operated in 1982. U.S. Energy and Uranium One were also previous owners of the Shootaring Mill. The mill has not been decommissioned and has been under care and maintenance since cessation of operations. The mill license has been maintained and Anfield has submitted its production reactivation plan for the Shootaring Canyon mill to the State of Utah's Department of Environmental Quality (UDEQ). The plan addresses the updating the mill's radioactive materials license from its current standby status to operational status and the increasing of both throughput capacity and the tripling of licensed production capacity.

Early-stage refurbishment of Shootaring will take place during the review of the restart application, preparing the Company to complete refurbishment as soon as the restart application is approved. The Company is targeting the mill restart in 2027.

With the application submitted to the UDEQ, the Company can prepare for uranium mill and tailings refurbishment and vanadium circuit construction. Steps include: the rough grading of the tailings pond cell area in advance of cell design approval; the moving of ore stockpiles and remediation of sections of the restricted area to establish a new radiation control boundary; the building of a new ore dump wall and transportation roads, along with a truck wash station; the demolition of all infrastructure to be replaced (e.g., electrical, controls, leach tanks); the installation of new generators, acid tanks and fuel tanks; the construction of the vanadium circuit building and counter-current decantation (CCD) circuit footers; the building of new ore pads where Velvet-Wood ore can be stockpiled in anticipation of mill restart; and the ordering of tanks and vessels needed for processing circuits, having equipment onsite and ready to install once the license is approved.

In July 2024, the Company received an affirmative completeness review from the State of Utah's Department of Environmental Quality (UDEQ) with respect to its Shootaring Mill production restart application. This affirmation allows for the detailed technical review of the mill application to proceed, which represents a critical step towards the restart of uranium production at Shootaring. The comprehensive application is designed to both update the mill's radioactive materials license from its current standby status to operational status and increase both throughput capacity and licensed output capacity at the mill.

**Velvet-Wood**

Between 1979 and 1984, Atlas Minerals mined approximately 400,000 tons of ore from the Velvet Deposit at grades of 0.46% U<sub>3</sub>O<sub>8</sub> and 0.64% V<sub>2</sub>O<sub>5</sub>, recovering approximately 4 million pounds of U<sub>3</sub>O<sub>8</sub> and 5 million pounds of V2O5.

The current mineral resources (PEA) of the combined Velvet and Wood historical mines have been estimated to comprise 4.6 million pounds of eU<sub>3</sub>O<sub>8</sub>, at a grade of 0.29% eU<sub>3</sub>O<sub>8</sub> (measured and indicated

resource), and 552,000 pounds of eU<sub>3</sub>O<sub>8</sub>, at a grade of 0.32% U<sub>3</sub>O<sub>8</sub> (inferred resource) with a vanadium- to-uranium ratio of 1.4 to 1.

In May 2024, the Company submitted its Plan of Operation for its Velvet-Wood mine to the State of Utah and BLM. This step is being undertaken as the Company advances Velvet-Wood to production-ready status concurrently with the Shootaring Canyon mill. This Plan of Operation includes specific operating actions and controls, reclamation actions, an estimate of reclamation surety based on third party costs and technical bases for how the actions meet the regulatory requirements of the State of Utah and the BLM.

In May 2025, the U.S. Department of the Interior selected its Velvet-Wood uranium project in Utah for expedited permitting as part of the federal government's national response to the energy emergency declared by President Donald J. Trump.

**Slick Rock** 

Slick Rock is located in the Uravan Uranium Belt region of Colorado. The 2023 PEA estimates 1.7 million tons containing some 7.7 million pounds of U<sub>3</sub>O<sub>8</sub>, with a vanadium to uranium ratio of 6 to 1.

In June 2024, the Company received final approvals for its drill permit application to commence a 20-hole, 20,000-foot rotary drill program at its Slick Rock uranium and vanadium project, located in San Miguel County, Colorado. Permits approvals included the Bureau of Land Management, the Colorado Division of Resources Mining and Safety, and a Special Use Permit from San Miguel County, Colorado to allow access via county roads for the drilling project. The permits allow drilling between the months of June and September. On September 24, the Company announced that it had commenced the drill program at Slick Rock. On January 29, 2025, the Company announced that it has completed a 14-hole, 14,100-foot rotary drill program at its Slick Rock uranium and vanadium project. The Company will use the drill results to both upgrade its uranium and vanadium resource estimate for Slick Rock and prepare mine designs for a large mine permit for the project.

**Project Economics** 

The PEA provides for a two-year pre-production period. The first year's forecasted capital expenditures of approximately US$24 million include initial mill and mine permitting and licensing, an updated mining and reclamation plan, and initiation of mine-development.

The second year's capital expenditures, forecasted at US$88 million (including a 25% contingency), include completion of the construction of mine facilities and purchasing of equipment, and refurbishment of the Shootaring uranium and vanadium mill.

Total capital for life of mine is estimated at US$130 million, including sustaining capital. Total weighted direct operating costs (including mining and handling, haulage and processing, bonding, royalties and taxes) between Velvet-Wood and Slick Rock is estimated at US$244 per ton of mined and processed material. The total direct costs (including direct mine costs and CAPEX cost per ton of processed material) is estimated at US$290 per ton, while the gross value per processed ton of uranium and vanadium at US$70 per pound of uranium and US$12 per pound of vanadium is US$791.

The PEA indicates a pre-tax IRR of 40% at a uranium price of US$70 per pound and US$12 per pound of vanadium. The pre-tax NPV of the project at an 8% discount rate at the aforementioned prices is US$238 million. On a post-tax basis, the resultant IRR is 33% and the NPV is US$197 million.

NI 43-101 Disclosure

This combined PEA completed for Velvet-Wood and Slick Rock, using centralized processing at Shootaring, has been authored by Douglas L. Beahm, P.E., Harold H. Hutson, P.E., P.G., Carl D. Warren, P.E., P.G., of BRS Inc. and Terence (Terry) McNulty, P.E., D. Sc., of T.P. McNulty and Associates Inc. The authors, qualified persons for the purpose of National Instrument 43-101, have reviewed and approved the technical content.

Results of the PEA represent forward-looking information. This economic assessment is preliminary in nature and it includes inferred mineral resources that are considered too speculative, geologically, to have the economic considerations applies to them that would enable them to be categorized as mineral reserves. There is no certainty that the preliminary economic assessment will be realized. Mineral resources are not mineral reserves as they do not have demonstrated economic viability.

**Surface Stockpiles** 

In addition to the estimated mineral resource at Velvet-Wood, Anfield controls mineralized stockpiles from past mining at two locations: 1) one stockpile at the Patty Ann mine area near the historic Velvet mine; and 2) several stockpiles near the Shootaring mill. The volumes and uranium content of the stockpiles were estimated from volumetric surveys and sampling conducted by BRS in March, 2015. The PEA includes the stockpiles located near the Shootaring mill only. In total these stockpiles are estimated to contain approximately 77,500 tons of material at an average grade of 0.161% U3O8 and contain approximately 250,000 pounds of uranium.

***The West Slope Project***

The West Slope Project, located in Montrose and San Miguel Counties of southwestern Colorado, consists of nine Department of Energy (DOE) leases, associated with adjacent lode mining claims and leases, covering 6,913 acres on which past uranium production has taken place. Between 1977 and 2006, approximately 1.3Mlbs of uranium and 6.6Mlbs of vanadium were produced from these mines. In 2022, BRS Engineering, Inc. was commissioned by Anfield to complete a mineral resource estimate for four of the nine uranium and vanadium properties – known as JD-6, JD-7, JD-8 and JD-9 – contained within its 100% owned West Slope project (US DOE Uranium/Vanadium Leases JD-6, JD-7, JD-8 and JD-9 Montrose County, Colorado, USA, Mineral Resource Technical Report, April 10, 2022). Using available data and using a cut-off of 0.05% uranium, BRS estimated an in-place Indicated Resource of 1.4Mt of uranium at an average grade of 0.197% for a total of 5.4Mlbs of uranium and an in-place Inferred resource of 1.4Mt of vanadium at an average grade of 0.984% for a total of 27Mlbs of vanadium.

In June 2025, the Company filed a Notice of Intent ("NOI"), through its wholly owned subsidiary Highbury Resources Inc., with the Colorado Division of Reclamation, Mining and Safety ("DRMS"), to begin a 20- hole, 8,000-foot rotary drill program at the existing JD-7 open pit mine in Montrose County, Colorado. The purpose of the in-field exploratory drilling program is to expand Anfield's hub-and-spoke uranium and vanadium production model. The program will: 1) collect geologic information related to uranium mineralization in multiple sandstone hosted deposits throughout the area; 2) confirm the existing pit resources; and 3) confirm the extent and location of underground uranium and vanadium resources. The JD-7 open pit mine has had historical production of 12,411 tons consisting of 46,280lbs uranium at an average grade of 0.186% U3O8 and 125,410lbs vanadium at an average grade of 0.504% V2O5.

(**Source***: Frank M Uranium Project, 43-101 Mineral Resource Report, Garfield County, Utah USA*; **Author**: *BRS, Inc*.; **Date**: *8/10/2008*).

The Company is not treating the Frank M historical estimate as current mineral resources or mineral reserves. A qualified person has not yet done sufficient work to classify the historical estimate as current mineral resources or mineral reserves.

This historical resource estimate was developed based on analysis of radiometric data from 838 historic holes and chemical assay from 17 historic core holes. The historical estimate also utilizes nine additional core holes that were drilled in 2007 to provide data verification and equilibrium evaluation. The grade thickness contour method was used to develop the resource estimates, evaluating grade thicknesses ranging from 0.10 to 1.00. The results disclosed in the table above are based on a grade thickness of 0.25.

The Frank M historical estimate was prepared by BRS, Inc., a well-known mineral exploration and mining consulting firm using the standards of CIM Indicated Mineral Resources. Thus, the Company considers the historical estimate to be reliable.

The Company intends to work with the same group to complete sufficient verification drilling at Frank M to bring the historical estimate to a current Indicated Mineral Resource.

***Newsboy Gold Project***

The Newsboy Gold Project, located 45 miles northwest of Phoenix, Arizona and 10 miles southeast of Wickenberg in Maricopa County, consists of 2,243 acres of land which is comprised of 35 Federal Lode Claims and 4 State leases.

Between 1987 and 1989, Westmont Mining Company conducted reconnaissance geological mapping, rock chip geochemistry and 102 holes (totaling 7,184 metres) of reverse-core drilling at Newsboy. In 1990, Pima Mining NL drilled 12 diamond core holes (512 metres), 40 reverse core holes (2,000 metres), and completed metallurgical test work, resource and reserve estimates and mine-planning studies.

In 2009, Aurum National Holdings, Ltd. Commissioned North American Environmental Group (NAEG) to produce a report on the Newsboy property which was titled "Technical Report of the Newsboy Gold Property, Maricopa County, Arizona, United States, by Clive R. G. Bailey, dated September 1, 2009." Anfield considers this a historic report and does not warrant that it meets current NI 43-101 guidance.

Using available data and a cut off grade of 0.02opt Au, NAEG estimated a total in-situ resource of 5.3Mt in the following categories:

A Measured resource of 2.533Mt at 0.05opt Au and 0.87opt Ag for a total of 127,000oz Au and 2,196,000oz Ag;

An Indicated resource of 1.076Mt at 0.04opt Au and 0.44opt Ag for a total of 43,000oz Au and 471,000oz Ag; and

An Inferred resource of 1.719Mt at 0.038opt and 0.45opt Ag for a total of 65,000oz Au and 765,000oz Ag

The NAEG report also identified areas in which the author, based on geologic interpretation, felt the resource could be expanded. The NAEG report also recommended an exploration program for this area. To Anfield's knowledge these recommendations have not yet been implemented.

Anfield considers these estimates to be historical in nature and cautions that a qualified person has not done sufficient work to classify the historical estimate as current mineral resources or mineral reserves and Anfield is not treating the historical estimate as current mineral resource or mineral reserves.

Douglas L. Beahm, P.E., P.G. has approved the scientific and technical disclosure, relating to the Newsboy Gold Project, in the news release. He is a Qualified Person as defined in NI 43-101.

**I)** **CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES** 

The management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining appropriate information systems, procedures and controls to ensure that information used internally and disclosed externally is complete, reliable and timely. Management is also responsible for establishing adequate internal controls over financial reporting to provide sufficient knowledge to support the representations made in this MD&A and the Company's financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2025.

The management of the Company has filed the Venture Issuer Basic Certificate with the annual and interim filings on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca. In contrast to the certificate required for non-venture issuers under National Instrument 52-109 Certification of Disclosure in Issuers' Annual and Interim Filings ("NI 52-109"), the venture issuer basic certificate does not include representations relating to the establishment and maintenance of disclosure controls and procedures ("DC&P") and internal control over financial reporting ("ICFR"), as defined in NI 52-109. Investors should be aware that inherent limitations on the ability of certifying officers of a venture issuer to design and implement on a cost-effective basis DC&P and ICFR as defined in NI 52-109 may result in additional risks to the quality, reliability, transparency, and timeliness of interim and annual filings and other reports provided under securities legislation.

**J)** **AUTHORIZED SHARE CAPITAL** 

Unlimited share capital with no par value.

As at August 20, 2025, the Company had the following common shares, stock options and warrants outstanding:

---

**K)** **CHANGES TO ACCOUNTING POLICIES** 

***Accounting standards not yet effective***

In April 2024, the IASB issues IFRS 18 *Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements* ("IFRS 18"), which will replace IAS 1 and includes requirements for all entities applying IFRS Accounting Standards for the presentation and disclosure of information in the financial statements. IFRS 18 will introduce new totals, subtotals, and categories for income and expenses in the statement of income, as well as requiring disclosure about management-defined performance measures and additional requirements regarding the aggregation and disaggregation of certain information. It will be effective on January 1, 2027, with earlier adoption permitted, and it must be adopted on a retrospective basis. The Company is currently evaluating the impact on its financial statements.

Other accounting standards or amendments to existing accounting standards that have been issued but have future effective dates are either not applicable or are not expected to have a significant impact on the Company's financial statements.

**L)** **COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES** 

**COMMITMENTS**

As at the date of this report, the Company had no commitments other than those mentioned in the condensed interim consolidated financial statements and described in the exploration and evaluation assets note in the condensed interim consolidated financial statements.

**CONTINGENCIES**

The Company's exploration activities are subject to various federal, provincial and international laws and regulations governing the protection of the environment. These laws and regulations are continually changing and generally becoming more restrictive. The Company conducts its operations so as to protect public health and the environment and believes its operations are materially in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations. The Company has made, and expects to make in the future, expenditures to comply with such laws and regulations.

|:---|:---|
| **CRITICAL** | **ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES**  |

---

Significant areas requiring the use of critical accounting estimates include the recoverability of the carrying value of property and equipment and exploration and evaluation assets, fair value measurements for financial instruments and share-based compensation and other equity-based payments, the recognition and valuation of provisions for restoration and environmental liabilities, and the recoverability and measurement of deferred tax assets and liabilities. Actual results may differ from those estimates and judgments.

**M)** **RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES** 

The Company is in the business of acquiring, exploring and developing uranium properties. It is exposed to a number of risks and uncertainties that are common to other mineral exploration companies in the same business. The industry is capital intensive at all stages and is subjected to variations in commodity prices, market sentiment, exchange rates for currency, inflations and other risks. The Company currently has no source of revenue other than interest income. The Company will rely mainly on equity financing to fund exploration activities on its mineral properties.

The risks and uncertainties described in this section are considered by management to be the most important in the context of the Company's business. The risks and uncertainties below are not inclusive of all the risks and uncertainties the Company may be subject to and other risks may apply.

**1.** **Financial risks** 

The Company's financial instruments consist of cash, accounts payable and due to related parties. The carrying values of cash, accounts payable and due to related parties approximate their fair values due to the relatively short period to maturity of those financial instruments.

The Company is exposed to credit risk with respect to its cash. Cash have been placed on deposit with a major Canadian, financial institutions. Credit risk arises from the non-performance of counterparties of contractual financial obligations. The Company manages credit risk, in respect of cash and cash equivalents, by purchasing term deposits held at a major Canadian financial

---

institution. The Company has secondary exposure to credit risk on its receivables. The receivables consists of refundable good and services tax from the government. Credit risk is assessed as low.

Liquidity risk is the risk that an entity will encounter difficulty in raising funds to meet commitments associated with financial instruments. The Company manages liquidity by maintaining adequate cash balances to meet liabilities as they become due. The Company's expected source of cash flow in the upcoming year will be through equity financings. As at June 30, 2025, the Company had working capital of $10,873,434 (December 31, 2024 – working capital deficit of $5,304,666). Liquidity risk is assessed as low.

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. As at June 30, 2025, the Company loan payable of US$9,885,055 is subject to interest rate risk. The loan payable incurs interest based on the SOFR plus 5.0% per annum, payable semi-annually in U.S. dollars. The Company, with written notice, may elect to capitalize the interest payable on the Credit Facility semi-annually, in arrears, at a rate of SOFR plus 7.0%. If interest rates on the Company's credit facility increased (decreased) by 100 basis points with all other variables held constant, finance costs on the credit facility would increase (decreased) by $134,743.

Foreign exchange risk is the risk arising from changes in foreign currency fluctuations. The Company does not use any derivative instruments to reduce its exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency rates. The foreign currency risk for the Company is low as the foreign currencies held are in the functional currency of the entities. A 10% change in the US dollar will affect profit/loss by approximately $1,429,748.

Commodity risk is the risk that the value of future cash flows and profits will fluctuate based on the prices of commodities. The Company is exposed to changes in the price of commodities. Changes in the price of commodities will impact the Company's ability to obtain financing to explore its exploration and evaluation assets. As at June 30, 2025, the Company has no contracts or agreements in place to mitigate these price risks.

At June 30, 2025, the Company had accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $661,396 (December 31, 2024 – $1,651,411). The Company's current liabilities are due on demand and have a term of less than 1 year. The loan payable is due on September 26, 2028.

**2.** **Exploration and Mining Risks** 

The business of exploration for minerals and mining involves a high degree of risk. Few properties that are explored are ultimately developed into producing mines. At present, the Company's properties have no known body of commercial ore. Unusual or unexpected formations, formation pressures, fires, power outages, labor disruptions, flooding, explorations, cave-ins, landslides and the inability to obtain suitable adequate machinery, equipment or labor are other risks involved in the operation of mines and the conduct of exploration programs. The Company has relied on and may continue to rely upon consultants and others for exploration and development expertise. Substantial expenditures are required to establish ore reserves through drilling, to develop metallurgical processes to extract the metal from the ore and, in the case of new properties, to develop the mining and processing facilities and infrastructure at any site chosen for mining. Although substantial benefits may be derived from the discovery of a major mineral deposit, no assurance can be given that minerals will be discovered in sufficient quantities to justify commercial operations or that funds required for development can be obtained on a timely basis. The economics of developing uranium is affected by many factors including the cost of operations, variations in the grade of ore mined, fluctuations in metal markets, costs of processing equipment

and such other factors as government regulations, including regulations relating to royalties, allowable production, importing and exporting of minerals and environmental protection. The Company has no producing mines at this time. Most exploration projects do not result in the discovery of commercially mineable deposits of ore. The transfer application is the first step in the process of restarting the Shootaring Mill.

**3.** **Development Risks** 

The marketability of any minerals which may be acquired or discovered by the Company may be affected by numerous factors which are beyond the control of the Company and which cannot be accurately predicted, such as market fluctuations, the proximity and capacity of milling facilities, mineral markets and processing equipment, and such other factors as government regulations, including regulations relating to royalties, allowable production, importing and exporting of minerals, and environmental protection.

**4.** **Loss of Interest in and Value of Properties** 

The Company's ability to maintain its interests in its exploration and evaluation assets and to fund ongoing development costs will be entirely dependent on its ability to raise additional funds by equity financings. If the Company is unable to raise such funds it may suffer dilution or loss of its interest in its exploration and evaluation assets. The amounts attributed to the Company's interests in exploration and evaluation assets in its financial statements represent acquisition and exploration costs, and should not be taken to reflect realizable value.

**5.** **Financing Risks** 

The Company has no history of earnings and no source of operating cash flow and, due to the nature of its business, there can be no assurance that the Company will be profitable. The Company has paid no dividends on its shares since incorporation and does not anticipate doing so in the foreseeable future. The only present source of funds available to the Company is through the sale of its equity shares. Even if the results of exploration or development are encouraging, the Company may not have sufficient funds to conduct the further development that may be necessary to determine whether or not a commercially mineable deposit exists. While the Company may generate additional working capital through further equity offerings or through the sale or possible syndication of its property, there is no assurance that any such funds will be available. If available, future equity financings may result in substantial dilution to purchasers under the Offering. At present it is impossible to determine what amounts of additional funds, if any, may be required.

**6.** **Uranium Price** 

The uranium mining industry in general is intensely competitive and there is no assurance that, even if commercial quantities of ore are discovered, a profitable market may exist for the sale of minerals produced by the Company. Factors beyond the control of the Company may affect the marketability of any substances discovered. Mineral prices, in particular uranium prices, have fluctuated widely in recent years. The marketability of minerals is also affected by numerous other factors beyond the control of the Company. These other factors include government regulations relating to price, royalties, allowable production and importing and exporting of minerals.

**7.** **Uninsurable Risks** 

In the course of exploration, development and production of mineral properties, certain risks, and in particular, unexpected or unusual geological operating conditions including rock bursts, cave- ins, fires, flooding and earthquakes may occur. It is not always possible to fully insure against such

------

| **Anfield Energy Inc.** | **Management Discussion and Analysis**<br> **FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2025**<br> **AND THE SUBSEQUENT PERIOD ENDED AUGUST 20, 2025**<br>|

---

risks and the Company may decide not to take out insurance against such risks as a result of high premiums or other reasons. Should such liabilities arise, they could reduce or eliminate any future profitability and result in increasing costs and a decline in the value of the securities of the Company.

**8.** **Environmental and Other Regulatory Requirements** 

Existing and possible future environmental legislation, regulations and actions could cause significant expense, capital expenditures, restrictions and delays in the activities of the Company, the extent of which cannot be predicted and which may well be beyond the capacity of the Company to fund. The Company's right to exploit the mining properties is subject to various reporting requirements and to obtaining certain government approvals and there is no assurance that such approvals, including environmental approvals, will be obtained without inordinate delay or at all.

**9.** **No Assurance of Titles, Boundaries or Surface Rights** 

The Company has investigated rights of ownership of all of the mineral properties in which it has an interest and, to the best of its knowledge, all agreements relating to such ownership rights are in good standing. However, all properties may be subject to prior claims or agreement transfers, and rights of ownership may be affected by undetected defects. While to the best of the Company's knowledge, title to all properties in which it has the right to acquire an interest is in good standing, this should not be construed as a guarantee of title. Other parties may dispute title to the mining properties in which the Company has the right to acquire an interest. The properties may be subject to prior unregistered agreements or transfers or native land claims and title may be affected by undetected defects or the statutes referred to above.

**10.** **Permits and Licenses** 

The operations of the Company may require licenses and permits from various governmental authorities. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain all necessary licenses and permits that may be required to carry out exploration, development and mining operations at its projects.

**11.** **Inability to Meet Cost Contribution Requirements** 

The Company may, in the future, be unable to meet its share of costs incurred under agreements to which it is a party and the Company may as a result, be subject to loss of its rights to acquire interests in the properties subject to such agreements.

**12.** **Reliance on Key Personnel** 

The nature of the business of the Company, the ability of the Company to continue its exploration and development activities and to thereby develop a competitive edge in the marketplace depends, in a large part, on the ability of the Company to attract and maintain qualified key management personnel. Competition for such personnel is intense, and there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to attract and retain such personnel. The development of the Company now and in the future, will depend on the efforts of key management figures, the loss of whom could have a material adverse effect on the Company. The Company does not currently maintain key-man life insurance on any of the key management employees.

(the "Company") for use at the Annual General and Special Meeting (the "Meeting") of its shareholders to be held on June 13, 2025 at the time and place and for the purposes set forth in the accompanying notice of the Meeting.** 

In this Information Circular, references to "the Company", "we" and "our" refer to **ANFIELD ENERGY INC.** "Common Shares" means common shares without par value in the capital of the Company. "Beneficial Shareholders" means shareholders who do not hold Common Shares in their own name and "intermediaries" refers to brokers, investment firms, clearing houses and similar entities that own securities on behalf of Beneficial Shareholders.

**GENERAL PROXY INFORMATION** 

**Solicitation of Proxies** 

The solicitation of proxies will be primarily by mail, but proxies may be solicited personally or by telephone by directors, officers and regular employees of the Company. The Company will bear all costs of this solicitation. We have arranged for intermediaries to forward the meeting materials to Beneficial Shareholders of the Common Shares held of record by those intermediaries and we may reimburse the intermediaries for their reasonable fees and disbursements in that regard.

**Appointment of Proxyholders** 

The individuals named in the accompanying form of proxy (the "**Proxy**") are officers and/or directors of the Company. **If you are a shareholder entitled to vote at the Meeting, you have the right to appoint a person or company other than either of the persons designated in the Proxy, who need not be a shareholder, to attend and act for you and on your behalf at the Meeting. You may do so either by inserting the name of that other person in the blank space provided in the Proxy or by completing and delivering another suitable form of proxy.**

**Voting by Proxyholder** 

The persons named in the Proxy will vote or withhold from voting the Common Shares represented thereby in accordance with your instructions on any ballot that may be called for. If you specify a choice with respect to any matter to be acted upon, your Common Shares will be voted accordingly. The Proxy confers discretionary authority on the persons named therein with respect to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) each matter or group of matters identified therein for which a choice is not specified, other than the appointment of
an auditor and the election of directors,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) any amendment to or variation of any matter identified therein, and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) any other matter that properly comes before the Meeting.

**In respect of a matter for which a choice is not specified in the Proxy, the management appointee acting as a proxyholder will vote in favour of each matter identified on the Proxy and, if applicable, for the nominees of management for directors and auditors as identified in the Proxy.** 

**Registered Shareholders** 

Registered shareholders ("**Registered Shareholders**") may wish to vote by proxy whether or not they are able to attend the Meeting in person. Registered Shareholders electing to submit a proxy may do so by:

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) completing, dating and signing the enclosed form of proxy and returning it to the Company's transfer agent,
Computershare Trust Company of Canada, by fax within North America at 1-866-249-7775, outside North America at (416) 263-9524, or by mail to the 8<sup>th</sup> Floor, 100 University Avenue, Toronto, Ontario, M5J 2Y1;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) using a touch-tone phone to transmit voting choices to a tollfree number. Registered Shareholders must follow the
instructions of the voice response system and refer to the enclosed proxy form for the tollfree number, the holder's account number and the proxy access number; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) using the internet through the website of the Company's transfer agent at www.investorvote.com. Registered
Shareholders must follow the instructions that appear on the screen and refer to the enclosed proxy form for the holder's account number and the proxy access number;

in all cases ensuring that the proxy is received at least 48 hours (excluding Saturdays, Sundays and holidays) before the Meeting or the adjournment thereof at which the proxy is to be used.

**Beneficial Shareholders** 

**The following information is of significant importance to shareholders who do not hold Common Shares in their own name.** Beneficial Shareholders should note that the only proxies that can be recognized and acted upon at the Meeting are those deposited by Registered Shareholders (those whose names appear on the records of the Company as the registered holders of Common Shares) or as set out in the following disclosure.

If Common Shares are listed in an account statement provided to a shareholder by a broker, then in almost all cases those Common Shares will not be registered in the shareholder's name on the records of the Company. Such Common Shares will more likely be registered under the names of the shareholder's broker or an agent of that broker (an "**intermediary**"). In the United States, the vast majority of such Common Shares are registered under the name of Cede & Co. as nominee for The Depository Trust Company (which acts as depositary for many U.S. brokerage firms and custodian banks), and in Canada, under the name of CDS & Co. (the registration name for The Canadian Depository for Securities Limited, which acts as nominee for many Canadian brokerage firms).

Intermediaries are required to seek voting instructions from Beneficial Shareholders in advance of meetings of shareholders. Every intermediary has its own mailing procedures and provides its own return instructions to clients.

There are two kinds of Beneficial Shareholders - those who object to their name being made known to the issuers of securities which they own (called "OBOs" for Objecting Beneficial Owners) and those who do not object to the issuers of the securities they own knowing who they are (called "NOBOs" for Non-Objecting Beneficial Owners).

The Company is taking advantage of the provisions of National Instrument 54-101 *Communication with Beneficial Owners of Securities of a Reporting Issuer* ("**NI 54-101**") that permit it to directly deliver proxy-related materials to its NOBOs. As a result, NOBOs can expect to receive a scannable Voting Instruction Form ("**VIF**") from our transfer agent, Computershare. These VIFs are to be completed and returned to Computershare in the envelope provided or by facsimile. In addition, Computershare provides both telephone voting and internet voting as described on the VIF itself which contain complete instructions. Computershare will tabulate the results of the VIFs received from NOBOs and will provide appropriate instructions at the Meeting with respect to the shares represented by the VIFs they receive.

These securityholder materials are being sent to both Registered Shareholders and Beneficial Shareholders of the securities of the Company. If you are a Beneficial Shareholder, and the Company or its agent has sent these materials directly to you, your name and address and information about your holdings of securities, have been obtained in accordance with applicable securities regulatory requirements from the intermediary holding on your behalf.

------

By choosing to send these materials to you directly, the Company (and not the intermediary holding on your behalf) has assumed responsibility for (i) delivering these materials to you, and (ii) executing your proper voting instructions. Please return your voting instructions as specified in your request for voting instructions.

The Company has not adopted the notice and access procedure described in NI 54-101 and National Instrument 51-102 – *Continuous Disclosure Obligations* to distribute its proxy-related materials to the Registered Shareholders and the Beneficial Shareholders. In addition, the Company has not agreed to pay to distribute the proxy-related materials to the OBOs and, unless the intermediaries acting for such OBOs agree to assume the cost of such delivery, OBOs will not receive the proxy-related materials for the Meeting.

Beneficial Shareholders who are OBOs should follow the instructions of their intermediary carefully to ensure that their Common Shares are voted at the Meeting.

The form of proxy supplied to you by your broker will be similar to the proxy provided to Registered Shareholders by the Company. However, its purpose is limited to instructing the intermediary on how to vote your Common Shares on your behalf. Most brokers now delegate responsibility for obtaining instructions from clients to Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. ("**Broadridge**") in the United States and in Canada. Broadridge mails a VIF in lieu of a proxy provided by the Company. The VIF will name the same persons as the Company's Proxy to represent your Common Shares at the Meeting. You have the right to appoint a person (who need not be a Beneficial Shareholder of the Company), other than any of the persons designated in the VIF, to represent your Common Shares at the Meeting and that person may be you. To exercise this right, you should insert the name of the desired representative (which may be yourself) in the blank space provided in the VIF. The completed VIF must then be returned to Broadridge by mail or facsimile or given to Broadridge by phone or over the Internet, in accordance with Broadridge's instructions. Broadridge then tabulates the results of all instructions received and provides appropriate instructions respecting the voting of Common Shares to be represented at the Meeting and the appointment of any shareholder's representative. **If you receive a VIF from Broadridge, the VIF must be completed and returned to Broadridge, in accordance with its instructions, well in advance of the Meeting in order to have your Common Shares voted or to have an alternate representative duly appointed to attend and to vote your Common Shares at the Meeting.**

**Notice to Shareholders in the United States** 

The solicitation of proxies involves securities of an issuer located in Canada and is being effected in accordance with the corporate laws of the Province of British Columbia, Canada and securities laws of the provinces of Canada. The proxy solicitation rules under the United States Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, are not applicable to the Company or this solicitation, and this solicitation has been prepared in accordance with the disclosure requirements of the securities laws of the provinces of Canada. Shareholders should be aware that disclosure requirements under the securities laws of the provinces of Canada differ from the disclosure requirements under United States securities laws.

The enforcement by Shareholders of civil liabilities under United States federal securities laws may be affected adversely by the fact that the Company is incorporated under the *Business Corporations Act* (British Columbia), as amended, certain of its directors and its executive officers are residents of Canada and a substantial portion of its assets and the assets of such persons are located outside the United States. Shareholders may not be able to sue a foreign company or its officers or directors in a foreign court for violations of United States federal securities laws. It may be difficult to compel a foreign company and its officers and directors to subject themselves to a judgment by a United States court.

**Revocation of Proxies** 

In addition to revocation in any other manner permitted by law, a Registered Shareholder who has given a proxy may revoke it by:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) executing a proxy bearing a later date or by executing a valid notice of revocation, either of the foregoing to be
executed by the Registered Shareholder or the

------

Registered Shareholder's authorized attorney in writing, or, if the shareholder is a corporation, under its corporate seal by an officer or attorney duly authorized, and by delivering the proxy bearing a later date to Computershare Trust Company of Canada, or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) executing an instrument in writing that is received at the registered office of the Company (at 2200 – 885 West
Georgia Street, Vancouver, B.C. V6C 3E8), at any time up to and including the last business day before the day set for the holding of the Meeting or if adjourned meeting, at any reconvening thereof, or to the chairman of the Meeting on the day of
the Meeting or any reconvening thereof, or in any other manner provided by law, or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) personally attending the Meeting and voting the registered shareholder's Common Shares.

A revocation of a proxy will not affect a matter on which a vote is taken before the revocation.

**INTEREST OF CERTAIN PERSONS OR COMPANIES IN MATTERS TO BE ACTED UPON** 

No director or executive officer of the Company, or any person who has held such a position since the beginning of the last completed financial year end of the Company, nor any nominee for election as a director of the Company, nor any associate or affiliate of the foregoing persons, has any substantial or material interest, direct or indirect, by way of beneficial ownership of securities or otherwise, in any matter to be acted on at the Meeting other than the election of directors and as may be set out herein. Directors and Named Executive Officers may, however, be interested in the approval of the Company's stock option plan as detailed herein.

**VOTING SECURITIES AND PRINCIPAL HOLDERS OF VOTING SECURITIES** 

The board of directors (the "**Board**") of the Company has fixed May 7, 2025 as the record date (the "**Record Date**") for determination of persons entitled to receive notice of the Meeting. Only shareholders of record at the close of business on the Record Date who either attend the Meeting personally or complete, sign and deliver a form of proxy in the manner and subject to the provisions described above will be entitled to vote or to have their Common Shares voted at the Meeting.

The Common Shares of the Company are listed for trading on the TSX Venture Exchange (the "**TSXV**"). The authorized capital of the Company consists of an unlimited number of Common Shares. As of May 7, 2025, there are 1,154,101,954 Common Shares issued and outstanding, each carrying the right to one vote. No group of shareholders has the right to elect a specified number of directors, nor are there cumulative or similar voting rights attached to the Common Shares.

To the knowledge of the directors and executive officers of the Company, the following individual or corporation beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, or exercised control or direction over, Common Shares carrying more than 10% of the voting rights attached to all outstanding Common of the Company as at May 7, 2025, as follows:

**VOTES NECESSARY TO PASS RESOLUTIONS** 

A simple majority of affirmative votes cast at the Meeting is required to pass the resolutions described herein. If there are more nominees for election as directors or appointment of the Company's auditor than there are vacancies to fill, those nominees receiving the greatest number of votes will be elected or appointed, as the case may be, until all such vacancies have been filled. If the number of nominees for election or appointment is equal to the number of vacancies to be filled, all such nominees will be declared elected or appointed by acclamation.

**Advance Notice Policy** 

On August 7, 2013, the Board adopted, and on September 11, 2013 the Shareholders approved, an advance notice policy for the purpose of providing shareholders, directors and management of the Company with a clear framework for nominating directors of the Company in connection with any annual or special meeting of shareholders.

The purpose of the advance notice policy is to (i) ensure that all shareholders receive adequate notice of director nominations and sufficient time and information with respect to all nominees to make appropriate deliberations and register an informed vote; and (ii) facilitate an orderly and efficient process for annual or, where the need arises, special meetings of shareholders of the Company. The advance notice policy fixes the deadlines by which shareholders of the Company must submit director nominations to the Company prior to any annual or special meeting of shareholders and sets forth the information that a shareholder must include in a written notice to the Company for any director nominee to be eligible for election at such annual or special meeting of shareholders.

The following is a brief summary of certain provisions of the advance notice policy, and the full text of the policy is available for review on SEDAR+ at <u>www.sedarplus.ca</u>.

1. Other than pursuant to (i) a proposal made in accordance with the *Business Corporations Act* (British
Columbia) (the "**Act** "), or (ii) a requisition of the shareholders made in accordance with the provisions of the Act, shareholders of the Company must give advance written notice to the Company of any nominees for election to
the board of directors.

2. The advance notice policy fixes a deadline by which shareholders of the Company must submit, in writing, nominations
for directors to the Corporate Secretary of the Company prior to any annual or special meeting of shareholders, and sets forth the specific information that such shareholders must include with their nominations in order to be effective. Only persons
who are nominated in accordance with the advance notice policy are eligible for election as directors of the Company.

3. For an annual meeting of shareholders, notice to the Company must be not less than 30 days and not more than 65 days
prior to the date of the annual meeting; provided, however, that in the event that the annual meeting is to be held on a date less than 40 days after the date on which the first public announcement of the date of such annual meeting was made, notice
may be given not later than the close of business on the 10<sup>th</sup> day following such public announcement.

4. For a special meeting of shareholders (that is not also annual meeting), notice to the Company must be given not
later than the close of business on the 15<sup>th</sup> day following the day on which the first public announcement of the date of such special meeting was made.

5. The time periods for giving notice set forth above shall in all cases be determined based on the original date of
the applicable annual meeting and/or special meeting of shareholders, and in no event shall any adjournment or postponement of a meeting of shareholders, or the reconvening of any adjourned or postponed meeting of shareholders, or the announcement
thereof, commence a new time period for the giving of notice as described above.

------

For the purposes of the advance notice policy, "public announcement" means disclosure in a press release reported by a national news service in Canada, or in a document publicly filed by the Company under its profile on SEDAR+ at <u>www.sedarplus.ca</u>.

The Board may, in its sole discretion, waive any provision or requirement of the advance notice policy.

**ELECTION OF DIRECTORS** 

The size of the Board of the Company is currently determined at eight. Shareholders will therefore be asked to approve an ordinary resolution that the number of directors elected be determined at five.

The term of office of each of the current directors will end at the conclusion of the Meeting. Unless the director's office is earlier vacated in accordance with the provisions of the Act**,** each director elected will hold office until the conclusion of the next annual general meeting of the Company, or if no director is then elected, until a successor is elected.

The following table sets out the names of management's nominees for election as directors, all major offices and positions with the Company and any of its significant affiliates each now holds, the period of time during which each has been a director of the Company and the number of Common Shares of the Company beneficially owned by each, directly or indirectly, or over which each exercised control or direction, as at May 7, 2025.

Company's consolidated financial statements. Audit Fees include fees for review of tax provisions and for accounting consultations on matters reflected in the financial statements. Audit Fees also include audit or other attest services
required by legislation or regulation, such as comfort letters, consents, reviews of securities filings and statutory audits.

(2) "Audit-Related Fees" include services that are traditionally performed by the auditor. These
audit-related services include employee benefit audits, due diligence assistance, accounting consultations on proposed transactions, internal control reviews and audit or attest services not required by legislation or regulation.

(3) "Tax Fees" include fees for all tax services other than those included in "Audit Fees" and
"Audit-Related Fees". This category includes fees for tax compliance, tax planning and tax advice. Tax planning and tax advice includes assistance with tax audits and appeals, tax advice related to mergers and acquisitions, and requests

(4) "All Other Fees" include all other non-audit services.

**Exemption** 

The Company is relying upon the exemption in section 6.1 of NI 52-110 in respect of the composition of its audit committee and in respect of its reporting obligations under NI 52-110 for the year ended December 31, 2024. This exemption exempts a "venture issuer" from the requirement to have 100% of the members of its audit committee independent, as would otherwise be required by NI 52-110.

**CORPORATE GOVERNANCE** 

**General** 

Corporate governance refers to the policies and structure of the board of directors of a company, whose members are elected by and are accountable to the shareholders of the company. Corporate governance encourages establishing a reasonable degree of independence of the board of directors from executive management and the adoption of policies to ensure the board of directors recognizes the principles of good management. The Board of the Company is committed to sound corporate governance practices, as such practices are both in the interests of shareholders and help to contribute to effective and efficient decision-making.

**Board of Directors** 

Directors are considered to be independent if they have no direct or indirect material relationship with the Company. A "material relationship" is a relationship which could, in the view of the Company's Board of Directors, be reasonably expected to interfere with the exercise of a director's independent judgment.

The Board facilitates its independent supervision over management in several ways, including retaining independent consultants where it deems necessary, and by reviewing corporate developments with larger shareholders, analysts and potential industry partners.

The independent members of the Board are Don Falconer, Ross McElroy, Ken Mushinski and Stephen Lunsford. Fifty percent of the Board is independent.

**Orientation and Continuing Education** 

When new directors are appointed, they receive an orientation, commensurate with their previous experience, on the Company's properties and business and on the responsibilities of directors.

Board meetings may also include presentations by the Company's management and employees to give the directors additional insight into the Company's business.

**Ethical Business Conduct** 

The Board has found that the fiduciary duties placed on individual directors by the Company's governing corporate legislation and the common law and the restrictions placed by applicable corporate legislation on an individual directors' participation in decisions of the Board in which the director has an interest have been sufficient to ensure that the Board operates independently of management and in the best interests of the Company.

**Nomination of Directors** 

The Board considers its size each year when it considers the number of directors to recommend to the shareholders for election at the annual meeting of shareholders, taking into account the number required to carry out the Board's duties effectively and to maintain a diversity of views and experience.

------

The Board does not have a nominating committee, and these functions are currently performed by the Board as a whole. However, if there is a change in the number of directors required by the Company, this policy will be reviewed.

The Company does have an Advance Notice Policy for the nomination of directors which policy can be viewed at www.sedarplus.ca.

**Compensation** 

The Compensation Committee consists of Don Falconer (Chairman), Stephen Lunsford and Laara Shaffer.

**Other Board Committees** 

The Board has no other committees other than the Audit Committee and the Compensation Committee.

**Assessments** 

The Board monitors the adequacy of information given to directors, communication between the Board and management and the strategic direction and processes of the Board and committees.

**STATEMENT OF EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION** 

**Named Executive Officer** 

In this section "Named Executive Officer" (an "**NEO**") means the Chief Executive Officer ("**CEO**") and Chief Financial Officer ("**CFO**") of the Company and each of the three most highly compensated executive officers, other than the CEO and CFO, who were serving as executive officers at December 31, 2024 and whose total compensation was in excess of $150,000 as well as any additional individuals for whom disclosure would have been provided except that the individual was not serving as an executive officer of the Company at December 31, 2024.

Ken Mushinski, Chairman, Corey Dias, CEO, Joshua Bleak, Douglas Beahm, COO and Laara Shaffer, CFO, are the NEOs of the Company for the purposes of the following disclosure.

**Compensation Discussion and Analysis** 

The overall objective of the Company's compensation strategy is to offer medium-term and long-term compensation components to ensure that the Company has in place programs to attract, retain and develop management of the highest caliber and has in place a process to provide for the orderly succession of management, including receipt on an annual basis of any recommendations of the CEO, if any, in this regard. The Company currently has medium-term and long-term compensation components in place, and intends to further develop these compensation components. The objectives of the Company's compensation policies and procedures are to align the interests of the Company's employees with the interests of the Company's shareholders. Therefore, a significant portion of the total compensation is based upon overall corporate performance.

The Company does have in place a compensation committee but not a nominating committee. All tasks related to developing and monitoring the Company's approach to the compensation of officers of the Company is conducted by the Compensation Committee, while the developing and monitoring the Company's approach to the nomination of directors to the Board is performed by the members of the Board.

The Company chooses to grant stock options to NEOs to satisfy the long-term compensation component. The Board may consider, on an annual basis, an award of bonuses to key executives and senior management. The amount and award of such bonuses is discretionary, depending on, among other factors, the financial performance of the Company and the position of a participant. The Board considers that the payment of such discretionary annual cash bonuses satisfies the medium-term compensation component. In the future, the Board may also consider the grant of options to purchase common shares of the Company with longer future vesting dates to satisfy the long-term compensation component.

------

The Compensation Committee has provided recommendations to the Board, and the Board has assessed the Company's compensation plans and programs for its executive officers to ensure alignment with the Company's business plan and to evaluate the potential risks associated with those plans and programs. The Board has concluded that the compensation policies and practices do not create any risks that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company. The Board considers the risks associated with executive compensation and corporate incentive plans when designing and reviewing such plans and programs.

The Company has not adopted a policy restricting its executive officers or directors from purchasing financial instruments that are designated to hedge or offset a decrease in market value of equity securities granted as compensation or held, directly or indirectly, by its executive officers or directors. To the knowledge of the Company, none of the executive officers or directors has purchased such financial instruments.

**Stock Option Plans and Other Compensation Plans** 

The Company previously adopted a Share Option Plan dated for reference May 26, 2014 (the "**Option Plan**"), pursuant to which the board of directors (the "**Board**") may grant options ("**Options**") to purchase common shares of the Company to NEOs, directors, officers and employees of the Company of affiliated corporations and consultants retained by the Company. Under the Option Plan, a maximum of 10% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares of the Company are to be reserved at any point in time for issuance on the exercise of stock options.

On November 24, 2021, the TSX Venture Exchange ("**TSXV**") adopted a new Policy 4.4 – *Security Based Compensation* ("**Policy 4.4**") which governs security-based compensation. The changes to Policy 4.4 generally relate to the expansion of the policy to cover a number of types of security- based compensation in addition to stock options.

At this years' meeting, shareholders will be asked to approve adoption of a new form of compensation plan (the "**Compensation Plan**") with an effective date of June 13, 2025, to replace its existing Option Plan. The Compensation Plan allows for the Company to issue stock options, deferred share units ("**DSUs**") and restricted share units ("**RSUs**") to purchase common shares of the Company to NEOs, directors, officers and employees of the Company or affiliated corporations and to consultants retained by the Company (collectively "**Eligible Persons**").

**For details of the Compensation Plan, see "Particulars of Matters to be Acted Upon – Approval of Compensation Plan" below.** 

The purpose of the Option Plan is to attract, retain, and motivate NEOs, directors, employees and other service providers by providing them with the opportunity, through options, to acquire an interest in the Company and benefitfrom the Company's growth. Under the Option Plan, the maximum number of Common Shares reserved for issuance, including Options currently outstanding, is equal to 10% of the Shares outstanding from time to time (the "**10% Maximum**") when combined with any other share-based compensation arrangements in place. The 10% Maximum is an "evergreen" provision, meaning that, following the exercise, termination, cancellation or expiration of any Options, a number of Common Shares equivalent to the number of options so exercised, terminated, cancelled or expired would automatically become reserved and available for issuance in respectof future Option grants.

The number of Common Shares which may be the subject of Options on a yearly basis to any one person cannot exceed 5% of the number of issued and outstanding Shares at the time of the grant. Options may be granted to any employee, officer, director, consultant, affiliate or subsidiary of the Company exercisable at a price which is not less than the market price of common shares of the Company on the date of the grant. The directors of the Company may, by resolution, determine the time period during which any option may be exercised (the "**Exercise Period**"), provided that the Exercise Period does not contravene any rule or regulation of such exchange on which the Common Shares may be listed. All Options will terminate on the earliest to occur of (a) the expiry of their term; (b) the date of termination of an optionee's employment, office or position as director, if terminated for just cause; (c) 90 days (or such other period of time as permitted by any rule or regulation of such exchange on which the Common Shares may be listed) following the date of termination of an optionee's position as a director or NEO, if

------

terminated for any reason other than the optionee's disability or death; (d) 30 days following the date of termination of an optionee's position as a consultant engaged in investor relations activities, if terminated for any reason other than the optionee's disability, death, or just cause; and (e) the date of any sale, transfer or assignment of the Option.

Options are non-assignable and are subject to early termination in the event of the death of a participant or in the event a participant ceases to be a NEO, director, employee, consultant, affiliate, or subsidiary of the Company, as the case may be. Subject to the foregoing restrictions, and certain other restrictions set out in the Option Plan, the Board is authorized to provide for the granting of Options and the exercise and method of exercise of options granted under the Option Plan.

There are presently 89,117,828 Options outstanding under the current Option Plan, 58.36% of which are held by NEOs or directors of the Company.

**Summary Compensation Table** 

Particulars of compensation paid to each NEO during the three most recently completed financial years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022 is set out in the summary compensation table below and expressed in Canadian dollars, unless otherwise noted:

**Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Information** 

*This material change report contains "forward-looking information" within the meaning of applicable Canadian securities legislation. "Forward-looking information" includes, but is not limited to, statements with respect to the activities, events or developments that the Company expects or anticipates will or may occur in the future, including the anticipated use of proceeds from the Equity Financing, the receipt of regulatory approvals with respect to the Equity Financing and the intention to pursue a listing on a US stock exchange.* 

*Generally, but not always, forward-looking information and statements can be identified by the use of words such as "plans", "expects", "is expected", "budget", "scheduled", "estimates", "forecasts",* 

------

*"intends", "anticipates", or "believes" or the negative connotation thereof or variations of such words and phrases or state that certain actions, events or results "may", "could", "would", "might" or "will be taken", "occur" or "be achieved" or the negative connation thereof.* 

*Such forward-looking information and statements are based on numerous assumptions, including among others, that the Company will use the proceeds of the Equity Financing as currently anticipated; that the Company will receive regulatory approval with respect to the Equity Financing; and that the Company will be able to pursue a listing on a US stock exchange.

| **Item 4** | **Summary of Material Change**  |

On March 18, 2025, Anfield announced an Amending Agreement (as defined below) with Extract Advisors LLC ("**Extract**") to increase the existing credit facility dated September 26, 2023 (the "**Credit Facility**") by US$6,000,000. The Credit Facility will continue to bear a coupon of the secured overnight financing rate ("**SOFR**") plus 5 per cent per annum, payable semi-annually, and Anfield may, with written notice, elect to capitalize the interest payable on the facility semi-annually, in arrears, at a rate of SOFR plus 7 per cent.

Anfield will issue 59,925,000 Facility Warrants (as defined below), with each Facility Warrant entitling the holder to acquire one common share of the Company at an exercise price of C$0.15 per share until the Maturity Date (as defined below). Proceeds from warrant exercises will repay the principal amount of the Credit Facility. Extract has agreed not to exercise its warrants to the extent that doing so would result in Extract or its affiliates owning more than 20% of Anfield's voting securities.

Anfield also announced it has repaid IsoEnergy Ltd.'s C$6 million promissory note and indemnity for up to US$3 million in principal.

Transactions contemplated by the Amending Agreement are "related-party transactions" under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 - *Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions* ("**MI 61-101**") but are exempt from formal valuation and minority shareholder approval.

| **Item 5.1** | **Full Description of Material Change**  |

---

On March 18, 2025, Anfield entered into an amending agreement (the "**Amending Agreement**") with Extract for the extension of an additional US$6,000,000 increase to the Credit Facility, in connection with the indicative term sheet as previously announced by the Company on January 14, 2025.

The Credit Facility will continue to have a maturity date of September 26, 2028 (the "**Maturity Date**"). The Credit Facility will continue to bear a coupon of the SOFR plus 5 per cent per annum, payable semi-annually. Anfield, with written notice, may elect to capitalize the interest payable on the facility semi-annually, in arrears, at a rate of SOFR plus 7 per cent.

In connection with the Amending Agreement, Anfield will issue 59,925,000 share purchase warrants to Extract (the "**Facility Warrants**"), with each such Facility Warrant entitling the holder thereof to acquire one common share of the Company at an exercise price of C$0.15 per share for a period ending on the Maturity Date. For so long as the Credit Facility remains outstanding, all proceeds from the exercise of the Facility Warrants by the lender shall be used to repay the principal amount of the Credit Facility. Extract has agreed, subject to the approval of the TSXV, not to exercise such number of its warrants held to the extent that, upon exercise thereof, it would cause Extract or its affiliates to hold in excess of 20% of the outstanding voting securities of Anfield.

Funds will be used to: 1) advance the reactivation plan for the Shootaring Canyon Mill; 2) advance the plan of operations for the Velvet-Wood mine; 3) potentially seek out mine permits for certain DOE leases; 4) add key personnel to facilitate the advancement of both mines and mill; and 5) general corporate purposes.

The Company also announces that IsoEnergy Ltd.'s C$6 million promissory note and indemnity for up to US$3 million in principal, as discussed in the Company's press release dated January 14, 2025, have been repaid and released.

Extract and its joint actor, Extract Capital Master Fund Ltd., are insiders of the Company. The transactions contemplated by the Amending Agreement, including the issuance of the Facility Warrants, constitute a "related party transaction" under MI 61-101. The board of directors of the Company have determined that the transactions contemplated by the Amending Agreement, including the issuance of the Facility Warrants, will be exempt from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements in MI 61-101 in reliance on the exemptions set forth in sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(1)(a) of MI 61-101 and, in connection therewith, the directors have determined that at the time the Amending Agreement was agreed to, neither the fair market value of the subject matter of, nor the fair market value of the consideration for, the transaction, insofar as it involves interested parties, exceeds 25% of the Company's market capitalization.

**Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Information** 

*This news release contains "forward-looking information" within the meaning of applicable Canadian securities legislation. "Forward-looking information" includes, but is not limited to, statements with respect to the activities, events or developments that the Company expects or anticipates will or may occur in the future, including the anticipated use of proceeds from the Credit Facility and the exercise of the Facility Warrants; and the intention of the Company to advance its projects over the near term* 

*Generally, but not always, forward-looking information and statements can be identified by the use of words such as "plans", "expects", "is expected", "budget", "scheduled", "estimates", "forecasts", "intends", "anticipates", or "believes" or the negative connotation thereof or variations of such words and phrases or state that certain actions, events or results "may", "could", "would", "might" or "will be taken", "occur" or "be achieved" or the negative connation thereof.* 

*Such forward-looking information and statements are based on numerous assumptions, including among others, that the Company will use the proceeds of the Credit Facility and the exercise of the Facility Warrants as currently anticipated; and that Credit Facility will provide the Company with sufficient funding to independently advance its projects over the near term. Although the assumptions made by the Company in providing forward-looking information or making forward-looking statements are considered reasonable by management at the time, there can be no assurance that such assumptions will prove to be accurate.* 

*There can be no assurance that such statements will prove to be accurate and actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the Company's plans or expectations include the risk that the Company may not use the proceeds of the Credit Facility and exercise of the Facility Warrants as currently anticipated; that the Credit Facility may not have the impact on the Company's operations as currently anticipated by management; risks relating to the actual results of the Company's* 

------

*operational activities, fluctuating commodity prices, availability of capital and financing, general economic, market or business conditions, regulatory changes, timeliness of government or regulatory approvals and other risks detailed herein and from time to time in the filings made by the Company with securities regulators.* 

*Although the Company has attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking information or implied by forward- looking information, there may be other factors that cause results not to be as anticipated, estimated or intended. There can be no assurance that forward-looking information and statements will prove to be accurate, as actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated, estimated or intended. Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements or information.*

| **SECTION 1.04** | **Form of Documents Delivered to Trustees.**  |

---

In any case where several matters are required to be certified by, or covered by an opinion of, any specified Person, it is not necessary that all such matters be certified by, or covered by the opinion of, only one such Person, or that they be so certified or covered by only one document, but one such Person may certify or give an opinion with respect to some matters and one or more other such Persons may certify or give an opinion with respect to other matters, and any such Person may certify or give an opinion as to such matters in one or several documents.

Any certificate or opinion of an officer of the Company may be based, insofar as it relates to legal matters, upon an Opinion of Counsel, a certificate of, or representations by, counsel, unless such officer knows, or in the exercise of reasonable care should know, that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to the matters upon which his certificate or opinion is based are erroneous. Any such certificate or Opinion of Counsel may be based, insofar as it relates to factual matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations by, an officer or officers of the Company stating that the information with respect to such factual matters is in the possession of the Company, unless such counsel knows, or in the exercise of reasonable care should know, that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to such matters are erroneous.

| **SECTION 1.05** | **Acts of Holders.**  |

---

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided by this Indenture to be given or taken by Holders of the Outstanding Securities of all series or one or more series, as the case may be, may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Holders in person or by agents duly appointed in writing. Except as herein otherwise expressly provided, such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments or record or both are delivered to the Trustees and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Company. Such instrument or instruments and any such record (and the action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the "**Act**" of the Holders signing such instrument or instruments or so voting at any such meeting. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent, or of the holding by any Person of a Security, shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and conclusive in favor of the Trustees and the Company, if made in the manner provided in this Section 1.05. The Trustees may make reasonable rules for action by or at a meeting of Holders.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such instrument or writing may be proved by the affidavit of a witness of such execution or by a certificate of a notary public or other officer authorized by law to take acknowledgments of deeds, certifying that the individual signing such instrument or writing acknowledged to him the execution thereof. Where such execution is by a signer acting in a capacity other than his individual capacity, such certificate or affidavit shall also constitute sufficient proof of authority. The fact and date of the execution of any such instrument or writing, or the authority of the Person executing the same, may also be proved in any other manner which the Trustees deem sufficient.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The ownership of the Securities, including the principal amount and the date of holding the same, shall be proved by the Security Register.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) If the Company shall solicit from the Holders of Securities any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, the Company may, at its option, by or pursuant to a Board Resolution, fix in advance a record date for the determination of Holders entitled to give such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, but the Company shall have no obligation to do so. Notwithstanding Trust Indenture Legislation, including TIA Section 316(c), such record date shall be the record date specified in or pursuant to such Board Resolution, which shall be a date not earlier than the date 30 days prior to the first solicitation of Holders generally in connection therewith and not later than the date such solicitation is completed. If such a record date is fixed, such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act may be given before or after such record date, but only the Holders of record at the close of business on such record date shall be deemed to be Holders for the purposes of determining whether Holders of the requisite proportion of Outstanding Securities have authorized or agreed or consented to such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, and for that purpose the

------

Outstanding Securities shall be computed as of such record date; *provided* that no such authorization, agreement or consent by the Holders on such record date shall be deemed effective unless it shall become effective pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture not later than eleven months after the record date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act of the Holder of any Security shall bind every future Holder of the same Security and the Holder of every Security issued upon the registration of transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof in respect of anything done, omitted or suffered to be done by the Trustees or the Company in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon such Security.

| **SECTION 1.06** | **Notices.**  |

---

Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or Act of Holders or other documents provided or permitted by this Indenture to be made upon, given or furnished to, or filed with:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) the U.S. Trustee, by the Canadian Trustee, any Holder or by the Company shall be sufficient for every purpose
hereunder if made, given, furnished or filed in writing to or with the U.S. Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office, Attention: <u> </u>, or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) the Canadian Trustee, by the U.S. Trustee, any Holder or by the Company shall be sufficient for every purpose
hereunder if made, given, furnished or filed in writing to or with the Canadian Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office, Attention: <u> </u>, or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) the Company by either Trustee or any Holder shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder (unless otherwise

Where this Indenture provides for notice of any event to Holders of Securities by the Company or the Trustees, such notice shall be sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each such Holder affected by such event, at his address as it appears in the Security Register. In any case where notice to Holders of Securities is given by mail, neither the failure to mail such notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed, to any particular Holder shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Holders of Securities. Any notice mailed to a Holder in the manner herein prescribed shall be conclusively deemed to have been received by such Holder, whether or not such Holder actually receives such notice.

In case, by reason of the suspension of or irregularities in regular mail service or by reason of any other cause, it shall be impractical to mail notice of any event to Holders of Securities when such notice is required to be given pursuant to any provision of this Indenture, then any manner of giving such notice as shall be satisfactory to the Trustees shall be deemed to be sufficient giving of such notice for every purpose hereunder.

Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver required or permitted under this Indenture shall be in the English language, except that any published notice may be in an official language of the country of publication.

------

Where this Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be waived in writing by the Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by Holders shall be filed with the Trustees, but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such waiver.

The Company further agrees to take any and all action, including the execution and filing of any and all such documents and instruments, as may be necessary to continue such designation and appointment of in full force and effect so long as this Indenture shall be in full force and effect.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in, or enforcing the judgment of, any court in any country, it becomes necessary to convert into a Currency (the "**Judgment Currency**") an amount due or contingently due in any other Currency under the Securities of any series and this Indenture (the "**Base Currency**"), then the conversion shall be made at the rate of exchange prevailing on the Business Day before the day on which the final judgment is given or the order of enforcement is made, as the case may be (unless a court shall otherwise determine).

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) If there is a change in the rate of exchange prevailing between the Business Day before the day on which the judgment referred to in (i) above is given or an order of enforcement is made, as the case may be (or such other date as a court shall determine), and the date of receipt of the amount due, the Company shall pay such additional (or, as the case may be, such lesser) amount, if any, as may be necessary so that the amount paid in the Judgment Currency when converted at the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of receipt will produce the amount in the Base Currency originally due.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) In the event of the winding-up of the Company at any time while any amount or damages owing under the Securities and this Indenture, or any judgment or order rendered in respect thereof, shall remain outstanding, the Company shall indemnify and hold the Holders and the Trustees harmless against any deficiency arising or resulting from any variation in rates of exchange between (1) the date as of which the equivalent of the amount in the Base Currency due or contingently due under the Securities and this Indenture (other than under this Subsection (b)) is calculated for the purposes of such winding-up and (2) the final date for the filing of proofs of claim in such winding-up. For the purpose of this Subsection (b) the final date for the filing of proofs of claim in the winding-up of the Company shall be the date fixed by the liquidator or otherwise in accordance with the relevant provisions of applicable law as being the latest practicable date as at which liabilities of the Company may be ascertained for such winding-up prior to payment by the liquidator or otherwise in respect thereto.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The obligations contained in Subsections (a)(ii) and (b) of this Section 1.15 shall constitute separate and independent obligations of the Company from its other obligations under the Securities and this Indenture, shall give rise to separate and independent causes of action against the Company, shall apply irrespective of any waiver or extension granted by any Holder or the Trustees from time to time and shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding any judgment or order or the filing of any proof of claim in the winding up of the Company for a liquidated sum in respect of amounts due hereunder (other than under Subsection (b) above) or under any such judgment or order. Any such deficiency as aforesaid shall be deemed to constitute a loss suffered by the Holders or the Trustees, as the case may be, and no proof or evidence of any actual loss shall be required by the Company or its liquidator.

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **SECTION 3.03** | **Execution, Authentication, Delivery and Dating.**  |

---

The Securities shall be executed on behalf of the Company by an Officer. The signature of an Officer on the Securities may be the manual or facsimile signatures of the present or any future such authorized officer and may be imprinted or otherwise reproduced on the Securities.

Securities bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who were at any time the proper officers of the Company shall bind the Company, notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them have ceased to hold such offices prior to the authentication and delivery of such Securities or did not hold such offices at the date of such Securities.

At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this Indenture, the Company may deliver Securities of any series, executed by the Company to the applicable Trustee for authentication, together with a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of such Securities, and the applicable Trustee in accordance with such Company Order shall authenticate and deliver such Securities. If not all the Securities of any series are to be issued at one time and if the Board Resolution or supplemental indenture establishing such series shall so permit, such Company Order may set forth procedures acceptable to the Trustees for the issuance of such Securities and determining terms of particular Securities of such series such as interest rate, Stated Maturity, date of issuance and date from which interest shall accrue.

In authenticating such Securities, and accepting the additional responsibilities under this Indenture in relation to such Securities, the Trustees shall be entitled to receive, and (subject to Trust Indenture Legislation, including TIA Sections 315(a) through 315(d)) shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel stating:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) that the form or forms of such Securities have been established in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) that the terms of such Securities have been established in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) that such Securities, when completed by appropriate insertions and executed and delivered by the Company to the applicable Trustee for authentication in accordance with this Indenture, authenticated and delivered by the applicable Trustee in accordance with this Indenture and issued by the Company in the manner and subject to any conditions specified in such Opinion of Counsel, will constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable in accordance with their terms;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) the execution and delivery by the Company of such Securities and any supplemental indenture will not contravene the articles of incorporation or continuance, or such other constating documents then in effect, if any, or the by-laws of the Company, or violate applicable laws; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) that the Company has the corporate power to issue such Securities, and has duly taken all necessary corporate action with respect to such issuance.

------

Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 3.01 and of the preceding two paragraphs, if not all the Securities of any series are to be issued at one time, it shall not be necessary to deliver the Officer's Certificate otherwise required pursuant to Section 3.01 or the Company Order and Opinion of Counsel otherwise required pursuant to the preceding two paragraphs prior to or at the time of issuance of each Security, if such documents are delivered prior to or at the time of issuance of the first Security of such series and with respect to all Securities of such series.

The Trustees shall not be required to authenticate and deliver any such Securities if the issue of such Securities pursuant to this Indenture will affect the Trustees' own rights, duties or immunities under the Securities and this Indenture or otherwise in a manner which is not reasonably acceptable to the Trustees.

Each Security shall be dated the date of its authentication.

No Security shall entitle a Holder to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose unless there appears on such Security a certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided for herein duly executed by the applicable Trustee by manual signature of an authorized officer thereof, and such certificate upon any Security shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Security has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder and is entitled to the benefits of this Indenture. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Security shall have been authenticated and delivered hereunder but never issued and sold by the Company, and the Company shall deliver such Security to the Trustees for cancellation as provided in Section 3.10 together with a written statement (which need not comply with Section 1.03 and need not be accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel) stating that such Security has never been issued and sold by the Company, for all purposes of this Indenture such Security shall be deemed never to have been authenticated and delivered hereunder and shall never entitle a Holder to the benefits of this Indenture.

|:---|:---|
| **SECTION 3.04** | **Temporary Securities.**  |

---

Pending the preparation of definitive Securities of any series, the Company may execute, and upon Company Order the applicable Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, temporary Securities which are printed, lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed or otherwise produced, in any authorized denomination, substantially of the tenor of the definitive Securities in lieu of which they are issued, in registered form, and with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as the Officer executing such Securities may determine, as conclusively evidenced by their execution of such Securities. Such temporary Securities may be in global form.

Except in the case of temporary Securities in global form (which shall be exchanged in accordance with the provisions of the following paragraphs), if temporary Securities of any series are issued, the Company will cause definitive Securities of that series to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the preparation of definitive Securities of such series, the temporary Securities of such series shall be exchangeable for definitive Securities of such series upon surrender of the temporary Securities of such series at the office or agency of the Company in a Place of Payment for that series, without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Securities of any series, the Company shall execute and the applicable Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a like principal amount of definitive Securities of the same series of authorized denominations and of like tenor and evidencing the same indebtedness. Until so exchanged the temporary Securities of any series shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Securities of such series.

------

If temporary Securities of any series are issued in global form, any such temporary global Security shall, unless otherwise provided therein, be delivered to the office of the Depositary for credit to the respective accounts of the beneficial owners of such Securities (or to such other accounts as they may direct).

Without unnecessary delay, but in any event not later than the date specified in, or determined pursuant to the terms of, any such temporary global Security (the "**Exchange Date**"), the Company shall deliver to the Trustees definitive Securities, in aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of such temporary global Security and of like tenor and evidencing the same indebtedness, executed by the Company. On or after the Exchange Date, such temporary global Security shall be surrendered by the Depositary to the Trustees, as the Company's agent for such purpose, to be exchanged, in whole or from time to time in part, for definitive Securities without charge and the applicable Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for each portion of such temporary global Security, an equal aggregate principal amount of definitive Securities of the same series of authorized denominations and of like tenor and evidencing the same indebtedness as the portion of such temporary global Security to be exchanged. The definitive Securities to be delivered in exchange for any such temporary global Security shall be in registered form or permanent global registered form, or any combination thereof, as specified as contemplated by Section 3.01, and, if any combination thereof is so specified, as requested by the beneficial owner thereof; *provided, however*, that, unless otherwise specified in such temporary global Security, upon such presentation by the Depositary, such temporary global Security is accompanied by a certificate dated the Exchange Date or a subsequent date and signed by the Depositary as to the portion of such temporary global Security held for its account then to be exchanged and a certificate dated the Exchange Date or a subsequent date, each in the form set forth in Exhibit A-2 to this Indenture (or in such other form as may be established pursuant to Section 3.01).

Unless otherwise specified in such temporary global Security, the interest of a beneficial owner of Securities of a series in a temporary global Security shall be exchanged for definitive Securities of the same series and of like tenor and evidencing the same indebtedness following the Exchange Date when the account holder instructs the Depositary to request such exchange on his behalf and delivers to the Depositary a certificate in the form set forth in Exhibit A-1 to this Indenture (or in such other form as may be established pursuant to Section 3.01), dated no earlier than 15 days prior to the Exchange Date, copies of which certificate shall be available from the offices of the Depositary, the Trustees, any Authenticating Agent appointed for such series of Securities and each Paying Agent. Unless otherwise specified in such temporary global Security, any such exchange shall be made free of charge to the beneficial owners of such temporary global Security, except that a Person receiving definitive Securities must bear the cost of insurance, postage, transportation and the like in the event that such Person does not take delivery of such definitive Securities in person at the offices of the Depositary.

Until exchanged in full as hereinabove provided, the temporary Securities of any series shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Securities of the same series and of like tenor and evidencing the same indebtedness authenticated and delivered hereunder, except that, unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.01, interest payable on a temporary global Security on an Interest Payment Date for Securities of such series occurring prior to the applicable Exchange Date shall be payable to the Depositary on such Interest Payment Date upon delivery by the Depositary to the Trustees of a certificate or certificates in the form set forth in Exhibit A-2 to this Indenture (or in such other form as may be established pursuant to Section 3.01), for credit without further interest thereon on or after such Interest Payment Date to the respective accounts of the Persons who are the beneficial owners of such temporary global Security on such Interest Payment Date and who have each delivered to the Depositary a certificate dated no earlier than 15 days prior to the Interest Payment Date occurring prior to such Exchange Date in the form set forth in Exhibit A-1 to this Indenture (or in such other form as may be established pursuant to Section 3.01). Notwithstanding anything to the

------

contrary herein contained, the certifications made pursuant to this paragraph shall satisfy the certification requirements of the preceding two paragraphs of this Section 3.04 and of the third paragraph of Section 3.03 and the interests of the Persons who are the beneficial owners of the temporary global Security with respect to which such certification was made will be exchanged for definitive Securities of the same series and of like tenor and evidencing the same indebtedness on the Exchange Date or the date of certification if such date occurs after the Exchange Date, without further act or deed by such beneficial owners. Except as otherwise provided in this paragraph, no payments of principal of, premium (if any) or interest (if any) owing with respect to a beneficial interest in a temporary global Security will be made unless and until such interest in such temporary global Security shall have been exchanged for an interest in a definitive Security. Any interest so received by the Depositary and not paid as herein provided shall be returned to the Trustees immediately prior to the expiration of two years after such Interest Payment Date in order to be repaid to the Company in accordance with Section 10.03.

| **SECTION 3.05** | **Registration, Registration of Transfer and Exchange.**  |

---

So long as required by Trust Indenture Legislation, the Company shall cause to be kept at the Corporate Trust Offices of the applicable Trustee a register for each series of Securities (the registers maintained in the Corporate Trust Offices of the Trustees and in any other office or agency of the Company in a Place of Payment being herein sometimes collectively referred to as the "**Security Register**") in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Company shall provide for the registration of the Holders of Securities and of transfers of Securities. The Security Register shall be in written form or any other form capable of being converted into written form within a reasonable time. At all reasonable times, the Security Register shall be open to inspection by the Trustees. The Trustees are hereby initially appointed as security registrar (the "Security Registrar") for the purpose of registering Securities and transfers of Securities as herein provided. The Company shall have the right to remove and replace from time to time the Security Registrar for any series of Securities; provided, however, that, no such removal or replacement shall be effective until a successor Security Registrar with respect to such series of Securities shall have been appointed by the Company and shall have accepted such appointment by the Company. In the event that the Trustees shall not be or shall cease to be the Securities Registrar with respect to a series of Securities, they shall have the right to examine the Security Register for such series at all reasonable times. There shall be only one Securities Register for such series of Securities.

Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Security of any series at the office or agency in a Place of Payment for that series, the Company shall execute, and the applicable Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee, one or more new Securities of the same series, of any authorized denominations and of a like aggregate principal amount and tenor and evidencing the same indebtedness.

For Canadian Securities, the Security must be duly endorsed for transfer or in a duly endorsed transferable form as applicable and must comply with the current industry practice in accordance with the Securities Transfer Association of Canada.

At the option of the Holder, Securities of any series may be exchanged for other Securities of the same series, of any authorized denomination and of a like aggregate principal amount and tenor and evidencing the same indebtedness, upon surrender of the Securities to be exchanged at such office or agency. Whenever any Securities are so surrendered for exchange, the Company shall execute, and the applicable Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the Securities which the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive.

------

Whenever any Securities are so surrendered for exchange, the Company shall execute, and the applicable Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the Securities which the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.01, any permanent global Security shall be exchangeable only as provided in this Section. If any beneficial owner of an interest in a permanent global Security is entitled to exchange such interest for Securities of such series and of like tenor and principal amount of another authorized form and denomination, as contemplated by Section 3.01 and provided that any applicable notice provided in the permanent global Security shall have been given to the Company, the Trustees and the Depositary, then without unnecessary delay but in any event not later than the earliest date on which such interest may be so exchanged, the Company shall deliver to the applicable Trustee definitive Securities in aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of such beneficial owner's interest in such permanent global Security, executed by the Company. On or after the earliest date on which such interests may be so exchanged, such permanent global Security shall be surrendered by the Depositary or such other depositary as shall be specified in the Company Order with respect thereto to the applicable Trustee, as the Company's agent for such purpose, to be exchanged in whole or from time to time in part, for definitive Securities without charge, and the applicable Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for each portion of such permanent global Security, an equal aggregate principal amount of definitive Securities of the same series of authorized denominations and of like tenor as the portion of such permanent global Security to be exchanged. If a Security is issued in exchange for any portion of a permanent global Security after the close of business at the office or agency where such exchange occurs on (i) any Regular Record Date and before the opening of business at such office or agency on the relevant Interest Payment Date, or (ii) any Special Record Date and before the opening of business at such office or agency on the related proposed date for payment of Defaulted Interest, interest or Defaulted Interest, as the case may be, will not be payable on such Interest Payment Date or proposed date for payment, as the case may be, in respect of such Security, but will be payable on such Interest Payment Date or proposed date for payment, as the case may be, only to the Person to whom interest in respect of such portion of such permanent global Security is payable in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture.

Transfers of global Securities shall be limited to transfers in whole, but not in part, to the Depositary, its successors or their respective nominees. If at any time the Depositary for Securities of a series notifies the Company that it is unwilling, unable or no longer qualifies to continue as Depositary for Securities of such series or if at any time the Depositary for such series shall no longer be registered or in good standing under the Exchange Act, or other applicable statute or regulation, the Company shall appoint a successor Depositary for the Securities of such series. If a successor to the Depositary for Securities of such series is not appointed by the Company within 90 days after the Company receives such notice or becomes aware of such condition, as the case may be, the Company's election pursuant to Section 3.01 shall no longer be effective with respect to the Securities for such series and the Company will execute, and the applicable Trustee, upon receipt of a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of definitive Securities of such series, will authenticate and deliver Securities of such series in definitive form, in authorized denominations, and in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of the global Security or Securities representing such series and evidencing the same indebtedness in exchange for such global Security or Securities.

The Company may at any time and in its sole discretion determine that the Securities of any series issued in the form of one or more global Securities shall no longer be represented by such global Security or Securities. In such event the Company will execute, and the applicable Trustee, upon receipt of a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of definitive Securities of such series, will authenticate and deliver Securities of such series in definitive form, in authorized denominations, and in

------

an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of the global Security or Securities representing such series and evidencing the same indebtedness in exchange for such global Security or Securities.

Upon the exchange of a global Security for Securities in definitive form, such global Security shall be cancelled by the applicable Trustee. Securities issued in exchange for a global Security pursuant to this Section 3.05 shall be registered in such names and in such authorized denominations as the Depositary for such global Security, pursuant to instructions from its direct or indirect participants or otherwise, shall instruct the applicable Trustee in writing. The applicable Trustee shall deliver such Securities to the Persons in whose names such Securities are so registered.

All Securities issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities shall be the valid obligations of the Company, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Securities surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.

Every Security presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange shall (if so required by the Company or the Security Registrar or applicable securities transfer industry practices) be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer, in form satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar, duly executed by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing.

Any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities may be subject to service charges by the Securities Registrar and the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities, other than exchanges pursuant to Section 3.04, 9.06, 11.07 or 13.05 not involving any transfer.

The Company shall not be required (i) to issue, register the transfer of or exchange Securities of any series in definitive form during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of the selection for redemption of Securities of that series under Section 11.03 or 12.03 and ending at the close of business on the day of the mailing of the relevant notice of redemption or (ii) to register the transfer of or exchange any Security in definitive form so selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Security being redeemed in part, or (iii) to issue, register the transfer of or exchange any Security in definitive form which has been surrendered for repayment at the option of the Holder, except the portion, if any, of such Security not to be so repaid.

| **SECTION 3.06** | **Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Securities.**  |

---

If any mutilated Security is surrendered to the applicable Trustee, the Company shall execute and the applicable Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a new Security of the same series and of like tenor and principal amount and evidencing the same indebtedness and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding, or, in case any such mutilated Security has become or is about to become due and payable, the Company in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new Security, , pay such Security. If there shall be delivered to the Company and to the Trustees (i) evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Security and (ii) such security (or surety in the case of the Canadian Trustee) or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them and any agent of either of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Company or the Trustees that such Security has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser , the Company shall execute and upon Company Order the applicable Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen Security, a new Security of the same series and of like tenor and principal amount and evidencing the same indebtedness and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding.

------

Notwithstanding the provisions of the previous two paragraphs, in case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security has become or is about to become due and payable, the Company in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new Security appertaining to such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security, pay such Security.

Upon the issuance of any new Security under this Section 3.06, the Company may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustees) connected therewith.

Every new Security of any series issued pursuant to this Section 3.06 in lieu of any mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security, shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and the Holders of such Security shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with the Holders of any and all other Securities of that series duly issued hereunder.

The provisions of this Section 3.06 as amended or supplemented pursuant to this Indenture with respect to a particular series of Securities or generally are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities.

| **SECTION 3.07** | **Payment of Principal, Premium and Interest; Interest Rights Preserved; Optional Interest Reset.**  |

---

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Unless otherwise provided as contemplated by Section 3.01 with respect to any series of Securities, interest (if any) on any Security which is payable, and is punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date shall be paid by the Paying Agent to the Person in whose name such Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest at the office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose pursuant to Section 10.02; *provided, however*, that each installment of interest (if any) on any Security may at the Company's option be paid by (i) mailing a check for such interest, payable to or upon the written order of the Person entitled thereto pursuant to Section 3.09, to the address of such Person as it appears on the Security Register, (ii) wire transfer to an account located in the United States maintained by the Person entitled to such payment as specified in the Security Register, or (iii) as otherwise specified pursuant to Section 3.01 for the Securities of such series. Unless otherwise provided as contemplated by Section 3.01 with respect to any series of Securities, principal and premium (if any) paid in relation to any Security shall be paid to the Holder of such Security only upon presentation and surrender of such Security at the office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose pursuant to Section 10.02.

Unless otherwise provided as contemplated by Section 3.01, every permanent global Security will provide that interest (if any) payable on any Interest Payment Date will be paid to the Depositary with respect to that portion of such permanent global Security held for its account by the Depositary, for the purpose of permitting the Depositary to credit the interest (if any) received by it in respect of such permanent global Security to the accounts of the beneficial owners thereof.

Any interest on any Security of any series which is payable, but is not punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on the relevant Regular Record Date by virtue of having been such Holder, and such defaulted interest and, if applicable, interest on such defaulted interest (to the extent lawful) at the rate specified in the Securities of

------

such series (such defaulted interest and, if applicable, interest thereon herein collectively called "**Defaulted Interest**") must be paid by the Company as provided for in either clause (1) or (2), at the Company's election:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) The Company may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Interest to the Persons in whose names the Securities of
such series (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which shall be fixed in the following manner. The Company shall notify the Trustees
in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each Security of such series and the date of the proposed payment, and at the same time the Company shall deposit with the applicable Trustee an amount of money in the Currency in
which the Securities of such series are payable (except as otherwise specified pursuant to Section 3.01 for the Securities of such series and except, if applicable, as provided in Sections 3.12(b), 3.12(d) and 3.12(e)) equal to the aggregate
amount proposed to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustees for such deposit on or prior to the date of the proposed payment, such money when deposited to be held in trust for the benefit
of the Persons entitled to such Defaulted Interest as in this clause provided. Thereupon the Trustees shall fix a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest which shall be not more than 15 days and not less than 10 days prior to
the date of the proposed payment and not less than 10 days after the receipt by the Trustees of the notice of the proposed payment. The Trustees shall promptly notify the Company of such Special Record Date and, in the name and at the expense of the
Company, shall cause notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor to be given in the manner provided in Section 1.07, not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date. Notice of the
proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor having been so given, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the Persons in whose name the Securities of such series (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are
registered at the close of business on such Special Record Date and shall no longer be payable pursuant to the following clause (2).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) The Company may make payment of any Defaulted Interest on the Securities of any series in any other lawful
manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which such Securities may be listed, and, upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, if, after notice given by the Company to the Trustees of the proposed payment
pursuant to this clause, such manner of payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustees.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The provisions of this Section 307(b) may be made applicable to any series of Securities pursuant to Section 3.01 (with such modifications, additions or substitutions as may be specified pursuant to such Section 3.01). The interest rate (or the spread or spread multiplier used to calculate such interest rate, if applicable) on any Security of such series may be reset by the Company on the date or dates specified on the face of such Security (each an "**Optional Reset Date**"). The Company may exercise such option with respect to such Security by notifying the Trustees of such exercise at least 50 but not more than 60 days prior to an Optional Reset Date for such Security. Not later than 40 days prior to each Optional Reset Date, the Trustees shall transmit, in the manner provided for in Section 1.07, to the Holder of any such Security a notice (the "**Reset Notice**") indicating whether the Company has elected to reset the interest rate (or the spread or spread multiplier used to calculate such interest rate, if applicable), and if so (i) such new interest rate (or such new spread or spread multiplier, if applicable) and (ii) the provisions, if any, for redemption during the period from such Optional Reset Date to the next Optional Reset Date or if there is no such next Optional Reset Date, to the Stated Maturity of such Security (each

------

such period a "**Subsequent Interest Period**"), including the date or dates on which or the period or periods during which and the price or prices at which such redemption may occur during the Subsequent Interest Period.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, not later than 20 days prior to the Optional Reset Date, the Company may, at its option, revoke the interest rate (or the spread or spread multiplier used to calculate such interest rate, if applicable) provided for in the Reset Notice and establish an interest rate (or the spread or spread multiplier, if applicable) that is higher than the interest rate (or the spread or spread multiplier, if applicable) provided for in the Reset Notice, for the Subsequent Interest Period by causing the Trustees to transmit, in the manner provided for in Section 1.07, notice of such higher interest rate (or such higher spread or spread multiplier, if applicable) to the Holder of such Security. Such notice shall be irrevocable. All Securities with respect to which the interest rate (or the spread or spread multiplier used to calculate such interest rate, if applicable) is reset on an Optional Reset Date, and with respect to which the Holders of such Securities have not tendered such Securities for repayment (or have validly revoked any such tender) pursuant to the next succeeding paragraph, will bear such higher interest rate (or such higher spread or spread multiplier, if applicable).

The Holder of any such Security will have the option to elect repayment by the Company of the principal of such Security on each Optional Reset Date at a price equal to the principal amount thereof plus interest accrued to such Optional Reset Date. In order to obtain repayment on an Optional Reset Date, the Holder must follow the procedures set forth in Article Thirteen for repayment at the option of Holders except that the period for delivery or notification to the Trustees shall be at least 25 but not more than 35 days prior to such Optional Reset Date and except that, if the Holder has tendered any Security for repayment pursuant to the Reset Notice, the Holder may, by written notice to the Trustees, revoke such tender or repayment until the close of business on the tenth day before such Optional Reset Date.

Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.07 and Section 3.05, each Security delivered under this Indenture upon registration of transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any other Security shall carry the rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, which were carried by such other Security.

|:---|:---|
| **SECTION 3.08** | **Optional Extension of Stated Maturity.**  |

---

The provisions of this Section 3.08 may be made applicable to any series of Securities pursuant to Section 3.01 (with such modifications, additions or substitutions as may be specified pursuant to such Section 3.01). The Stated Maturity of any Security of such series may be extended at the option of the Company for the period or periods specified on the face of such Security (each an "**Extension Period**") up to but not beyond the date (the "**Final Maturity**") set forth on the face of such Security. The Company may exercise such option with respect to any Security by notifying the Trustees of such exercise at least 50 but not more than 60 days prior to the Stated Maturity of such Security in effect prior to the exercise of such option (the "**Original Stated Maturity**"). If the Company exercises such option, the Trustees shall transmit, in the manner provided for in Section 1.07, to the Holder of such Security not later than 40 days prior to the Original Stated Maturity a notice (the "**Extension Notice**") indicating (i) the election of the Company to extend the Stated Maturity, (ii) the new Stated Maturity, (iii) the interest rate (if any) applicable to the Extension Period and (iv) the provisions, if any, for redemption during such Extension Period. Upon the Trustees' transmittal of the Extension Notice, the Stated Maturity of such Security shall be extended automatically and, except as modified by the Extension Notice and as described in the next paragraph, such Security will have the same terms as prior to the transmittal of such Extension Notice.

------

Notwithstanding the foregoing, not later than 20 days before the Original Stated Maturity of such Security, the Company may, at its option, revoke the interest rate provided for in the Extension Notice and establish a higher interest rate for the Extension Period by causing the Trustees to transmit, in the manner provided for in Section 1.07, notice of such higher interest rate to the Holder of such Security. Such notice shall be irrevocable. All Securities with respect to which the Stated Maturity is extended will bear such higher interest rate.

If the Company extends the Maturity of any Security, the Holder will have the option to elect repayment of such Security by the Company on the Original Stated Maturity at a price equal to the principal amount thereof, plus interest accrued to such date. In order to obtain repayment on the Original Stated Maturity once the Company has extended the Maturity thereof, the Holder must follow the procedures set forth in Article Thirteen for repayment at the option of Holders, except that the period for delivery or notification to the Trustees shall be at least 25 but not more than 35 days prior to the Original Stated Maturity and except that, if the Holder has tendered any Security for repayment pursuant to an Extension Notice, the Holder may by written notice to the Trustees revoke such tender for repayment until the close of business on the tenth day before the Original Stated Maturity.

| **SECTION 3.09** | **Persons Deemed Owners.**  |

---

Prior to due presentment of a Security for registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustees and any agent of the Company or the Trustees may treat the Person in whose name such Security is registered as the owner of such Security for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of, premium (if any) and (subject to Sections 3.05 and 3.07) interest (if any) on such Security and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Security be overdue, and none of the Company, the Trustees or any agent of the Company or the Trustees shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

The Depositary for Securities may be treated by the Company, the Trustees, and any agent of the Company or the Trustees as the owner of such global Security for all purposes whatsoever. None of the Company, the Trustees, any Paying Agent or the Security Registrar will have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests of a Security in global form or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership interests.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any global Security, nothing herein shall prevent the Company, the Trustees, or any agent of the Company or the Trustees, from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by any Depositary, as a Holder, with respect to such global Security or impair, as between such Depositary and owners of beneficial interests in such global Security, the operation of customary practices governing the exercise of the rights of such Depositary (or its nominee) as Holder of such global Security.

| **SECTION 3.10** | **Cancellation.**  |

---

All Securities surrendered for payment, redemption, repayment at the option of the Holder, registration of transfer or exchange or for credit against any current or future sinking fund payment shall, if surrendered to any Person other than a Trustee, be delivered to either Trustee. All Securities so delivered to either Trustee shall be promptly cancelled by such Trustee. The Company may at any time deliver to a Trustee for cancellation any Securities previously authenticated and delivered hereunder which the Company may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and may deliver to either Trustee (or to any other Person for delivery to such Trustee) for cancellation any Securities previously authenticated hereunder which the Company has not issued and sold, and all Securities so delivered shall be promptly cancelled by such Trustee. If the Company shall so acquire any of the Securities, however, such

------

acquisition shall not operate as a redemption or satisfaction of the indebtedness represented by such Securities unless and until the same are surrendered to either Trustee for cancellation. No Securities shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Securities cancelled as provided in this Section 3.10, except as expressly permitted by this Indenture. All cancelled Securities held by either Trustee shall be disposed of by such Trustee in accordance with its customary procedures and certification of their disposal delivered to the Company unless by Company Order the Company shall direct that cancelled Securities be returned to it.

| **SECTION 3.11** | **Computation of Interest.**  |

---

Except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.01 with respect to any Securities, interest (if any) on the Securities of each series shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. For the purposes of disclosure under the Interest Act (Canada), the yearly rate of interest to which interest calculated under a Security for any period in any calendar year (the "**calculation period**") is equivalent, is the rate payable under a Security in respect of the calculation period multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the actual number of days in such calendar year and the denominator of which is the actual number of days in the calculation period.

| **SECTION 3.12** | **Currency and Manner of Payments in Respect of Securities.**  |

---

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) With respect to Securities of any series not permitting the election provided for in paragraph (b) below or the Holders of which have not made the election provided for in paragraph (b) below, payment of the principal of, premium (if any) and interest (if any) on such Security of such series will be made in the Currency in which such Security is payable. The provisions of this Section 3.12 may be modified or superseded with respect to any Securities pursuant to Section 3.01.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) It may be provided pursuant to Section 3.01 with respect to Securities of any series that Holders shall have the option, subject to paragraphs (d) and (e) below, to receive payments of principal of, premium (if any) or interest (if any) on such Securities in any of the Currencies which may be designated for such election by delivering to the Trustees a written election with signature guarantees and in the applicable form established pursuant to Section 3.01, not later than the close of business on the Election Date immediately preceding the applicable payment date. If a Holder so elects to receive such payments in any such Currency, such election will remain in effect for such Holder or any transferee of such Holder until changed by such Holder or such transferee by written notice to the Trustees (but any such change must be made not later than the close of business on the Election Date immediately preceding the next payment date to be effective for the payment to be made on such payment date and no such change of election may be made with respect to payments to be made on any Security of such series with respect to which an Event of Default has occurred or with respect to which the Company has deposited funds pursuant to Article Four or Fourteen or with respect to which a notice of redemption has been given by the Company or a notice of option to elect repayment has been sent by such Holder or such transferee). Any Holder of any such Security who shall not have delivered any such election to the Trustees not later than the close of business on the applicable Election Date will be paid the amount due on the applicable payment date in the relevant Currency as provided in Section 3.12(a). The Trustees shall notify the Exchange Rate Agent as soon as practicable after the Election Date of the aggregate principal amount of Securities for which Holders have made such written election.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Unless otherwise specified pursuant to Section 3.01, if the election referred to in paragraph (b) above has been provided for pursuant to Section 3.01, then, unless otherwise specified pursuant to Section 3.01, not later than the fourth Business Day after the Election Date for each payment date for Securities of any series, the Exchange Rate Agent will deliver to the Company a written notice specifying, in the Currency in which Securities of such series are payable, the respective aggregate

------

amounts of principal of, premium (if any) and interest (if any) on the Securities to be paid on such payment date, specifying the amounts in such Currency so payable in respect of the Securities as to which the Holders of Securities of such series shall have elected to be paid in another Currency as provided in paragraph (b) above. If the election referred to in paragraph (b) above has been provided for pursuant to Section 3.01 and if at least one Holder has made such election, then, unless otherwise specified pursuant to Section 3.01, on the second Business Day preceding such payment date the Company will deliver to the Trustees for such series of Securities an Exchange Rate Officer's Certificate in respect of the Dollar or Foreign Currency payments to be made on such payment date. Unless otherwise specified pursuant to Section 3.01, the Dollar or Foreign Currency amount receivable by Holders of Securities who have elected payment in a Currency as provided in paragraph (b) above shall be determined by the Company on the basis of the applicable Market Exchange Rate in effect on the third Business Day (the "**Valuation Date**") immediately preceding each payment date, and such determination shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) If a Conversion Event occurs with respect to a Foreign Currency in which any of the Securities are denominated or payable other than pursuant to an election provided for pursuant to paragraph (b) above, then, with respect to each date for the payment of principal of, premium (if any) and interest (if any) on the applicable Securities denominated or payable in such Foreign Currency occurring after the last date on which such Foreign Currency was used (the "**Conversion Date**"), the Dollar shall be the Currency of payment for use on each such payment date. Unless otherwise specified pursuant to Section 3.01, the Dollar amount to be paid by the Company to the Trustees and by the Trustees or any Paying Agent to the Holders of such Securities with respect to such payment date shall be, in the case of a Foreign Currency other than a Currency unit, the Dollar Equivalent of the Foreign Currency or, in the case of a Currency unit, the Dollar Equivalent of the Currency Unit, in each case as determined by the Exchange Rate Agent in the manner provided in paragraph (f) or (g) below.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Unless otherwise specified pursuant to Section 3.01, if the Holder of a Security denominated in any Currency shall have elected to be paid in another Currency as provided in paragraph (b) above, and a Conversion Event occurs with respect to such elected Currency, such Holder shall receive payment in the Currency in which payment would have been made in the absence of such election; and if a Conversion Event occurs with respect to the Currency in which payment would have been made in the absence of such election, such Holder shall receive payment in Dollars as provided in paragraph (d) above.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) The "**Dollar Equivalent of the Foreign Currency**" shall be determined by the Exchange Rate Agent and shall be obtained for each subsequent payment date by converting the specified Foreign Currency into Dollars at the Market Exchange Rate on the Conversion Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) The "**Dollar Equivalent of the Currency Unit**" shall be determined by the Exchange Rate Agent and subject to the provisions of paragraph (h) below shall be the sum of each amount obtained by converting the Specified Amount of each Component Currency into Dollars at the Market Exchange Rate for such Component Currency on the Valuation Date with respect to each payment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) For purposes of this Section 3.12 the following terms shall have the following meanings:

A "**Component Currency**" shall mean any Currency which, on the Conversion Date, was a component currency of the relevant Currency unit, including, but not limited to, the Euro.

A "**Specified Amount**" of a Component Currency shall mean the number of units of such Component Currency or fractions thereof which were represented in the relevant Currency unit, including, but not limited to, the Euro, on the Conversion Date. If after the Conversion Date the official

------

unit of any Component Currency is altered by way of combination or subdivision, the Specified Amount of such Component Currency shall be divided or multiplied in the same proportion. If after the Conversion Date two or more Component Currencies are consolidated into a single currency, the respective Specified Amounts of such Component Currencies shall be replaced by an amount in such single Currency equal to the sum of the respective Specified Amounts of such consolidated Component Currencies expressed in such single Currency, and such amount shall thereafter be a Specified Amount and such single Currency shall thereafter be a Component Currency. If after the Conversion Date any Component Currency shall be divided into two or more currencies, the Specified Amount of such Component Currency shall be replaced by amounts of such two or more currencies, having an aggregate Dollar Equivalent value at the Market Exchange Rate on the date of such replacement equal to the Dollar Equivalent value of the Specified Amount of such former Component Currency at the Market Exchange Rate immediately before such division and such amounts shall thereafter be Specified Amounts and such currencies shall thereafter be Component Currencies. If, after the Conversion Date of the relevant Currency unit, including, but not limited to, the Euro, a Conversion Event (other than any event referred to above in this definition of "**Specified Amount**") occurs with respect to any Component Currency of such Currency unit and is continuing on the applicable Valuation Date, the Specified Amount of such Component Currency shall, for purposes of calculating the Dollar Equivalent of the Currency Unit, be converted into Dollars at the Market Exchange Rate in effect on the Conversion Date of such Component Currency.

"**Election Date**" shall mean the date for any series of Securities as specified pursuant to clause (15) of Section 3.01 by which the written election referred to in paragraph (b) above may be made.

All decisions and determinations of the Exchange Rate Agent regarding the Dollar Equivalent of the Foreign Currency, the Dollar Equivalent of the Currency Unit, the Market Exchange Rate and changes in the Specified Amounts as specified above shall be in its sole discretion and shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive for all purposes and irrevocably binding upon the Company, the Trustees and all Holders of such Securities denominated or payable in the relevant Currency. The Exchange Rate Agent shall promptly give written notice to the Company and the Trustees of any such decision or determination.

In the event that the Company determines in good faith that a Conversion Event has occurred with respect to a Foreign Currency, the Company will immediately give written notice thereof to the Trustees and to the Exchange Rate Agent (and the Trustees will promptly thereafter give notice in the manner provided for in Section 1.07 to the affected Holders) specifying the Conversion Date. In the event the Company so determines that a Conversion Event has occurred with respect to the Euro or any other Currency unit in which Securities are denominated or payable, the Company will immediately give written notice thereof to the Trustees and to the Exchange Rate Agent (and the Trustees will promptly thereafter give notice in the manner provided for in Section 1.07 to the affected Holders) specifying the Conversion Date and the Specified Amount of each Component Currency on the Conversion Date. In the event the Company determines in good faith that any subsequent change in any Component Currency as set forth in the definition of Specified Amount above has occurred, the Company will similarly give written notice to the Trustees and the Exchange Rate Agent.

The Trustees shall be fully justified and protected in relying and acting upon information received by it from the Company and the Exchange Rate Agent and shall not otherwise have any duty or obligation to determine the accuracy or validity of such information independent of the Company or the Exchange Rate Agent.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Unless otherwise specified pursuant to Section 3.01, if and so long as the Securities of any series (i) are denominated in a Currency other than Dollars or (ii) may be payable in a Currency other than Dollars, or so long as it is required under any other provision of this Indenture, then the Company will maintain with respect to each such series of Securities, or as so required, at least one Exchange Rate Agent. The Company will cause the Exchange Rate Agent to make the necessary foreign exchange determinations at the time and in the manner specified pursuant to Section 3.01 for the purpose of determining the applicable rate of exchange and, if applicable, for the purpose of converting the issued Currency into the applicable payment Currency for the payment of principal, premium (if any) and interest (if any) pursuant to Section 3.12.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Company shall have the right to remove and replace from time to time the Exchange Rate Agent for any series of Securities. No resignation of the Exchange Rate Agent and no appointment of a successor Exchange Rate Agent pursuant to this Section 3.13 shall become effective until the acceptance of appointment by the successor Exchange Rate Agent as evidenced by a written instrument delivered to the Company and the Trustees.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) If the Exchange Rate Agent shall resign, be removed or become incapable of acting, or if a vacancy shall occur in the office of the Exchange Rate Agent for any cause with respect to the Securities of one or more series, the Company, by or pursuant to a Board Resolution, shall promptly appoint a successor Exchange Rate Agent or Exchange Rate Agents with respect to the Securities of that or those series (it being understood that any such successor Exchange Rate Agent may be appointed with respect to the Securities of one or more or all of such series and that, unless otherwise specified pursuant to Section 3.01, at any time there shall only be one Exchange Rate Agent with respect to the Securities of any particular series that are originally issued by the Company on the same date and that are initially denominated and/or payable in the same Currency).

------

series, may declare the principal amount (or, if the Securities of that series are Original Issue Discount Securities or Indexed Securities, such portion of the principal amount as may be specified in the terms of that series) of all of the Securities of that series and all interest thereon to be due and payable immediately, by a notice in writing to the Company (and to the Trustees if given by Holders), and upon any such declaration such principal amount (or specified portion thereof) shall become immediately due and payable. If an Event of Default specified in clause (5) or (6) of Section 5.01 occurs and is continuing, then the principal amount of all the Securities shall ipso facto become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustees or any Holder.

At any time after such a declaration of acceleration with respect to Securities of any series (or of all series, as the case may be) has been made and before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by either Trustee as hereinafter provided in this Article Five, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series (or of all series, as the case may be), by written notice to the Company and the Trustees, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if:

be),

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) all unpaid principal of and premium (if any) on any Outstanding Securities of that series (or of all series, as
the case may be) which has become due otherwise than by such declaration of acceleration, and interest on such unpaid principal and premium (if any) at the rate or rates prescribed therefor in such Securities,

rates prescribed therefor in such Securities, and

than the non-payment of amounts of principal of, premium (if any) or interest (if any) on Securities of that series (or of all series, as the case may be) which have become due solely by such declaration of
acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 5.13.

No such rescission shall affect any subsequent default or impair any right consequent thereon.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) default is made in the payment of the principal of or premium (if any) any Security at the Maturity thereof,

then the Company will, upon demand of the Trustees, pay to the applicable Trustee for the benefit of the Holders of such Securities , the whole amount then due and payable on such Securities for principal of, premium (if any) and interest (if any) and interest on any overdue principal, overdue premium (if any) and, to the extent lawful, overdue interest (if any), at the rate or rates prescribed therefor in such Securities, and, in addition thereto, such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustees, their agents and counsel.

If the Company fails to pay such amounts forthwith upon such demand, the Trustees, in their own names as trustees of an express trust, may institute a judicial proceeding for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid, may prosecute such proceeding to judgment or final decree and may enforce the same against the Company or any other obligor upon such Securities and collect the moneys adjudged or decreed to be payable in the manner provided by law out of the property of the Company or any other obligor upon such Securities, wherever situated.

If an Event of Default with respect to Securities of any series (or of all series, as the case may be) occurs and is continuing, either Trustee may in its discretion proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Holders of Securities of such series (or of all series, as the case may be) by such appropriate judicial proceedings as such Trustee shall deem most effectual to protect and enforce any such rights, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement in this Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted herein, or to enforce any other proper remedy.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of principal and premium (if any), or such portion of the
principal amount of any series of Original Issue Discount Securities or Indexed Securities as may be specified in the terms of such series, and interest (if any) owing and unpaid in respect of the Securities and to file such other papers or

advances of each Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due to such Trustee under Section 6.07.

into this Indenture against the Trustees; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) in the absence of bad faith on the part of either Trustee, such Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth

certificates or opinions that by any provision hereof are specifically required to be furnished to the Trustees, the Trustees shall be under a duty to examine the same to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture; *provided, however*, the Canadian Trustee shall not be required to determine whether the certificates or opinions presented to it conform to the Trust Indenture Act and the U.S. Trustee shall not be required to determine whether the
certificates or opinions presented to it conform to Canadian Trust Indenture Legislation.

in accordance with the direction of the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Securities of any series at the time Outstanding relating to the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to
the Trustees, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Trustees under this Indenture;

funds or otherwise incur personal or any financial liability in the performance of any of their duties or in the exercise of any of their rights or powers; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) whether or not therein expressly so provided, except to the extent expressly provided herein to the contrary,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) Either Trustee may resign at any time with respect to the Securities of one or more series by giving written

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) either Trustee shall acquire any conflicting interest as defined in TIA Section 310(b) and fail to comply
with the provisions of TIA Section 310(b)(i), or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) either Trustee shall fail to comply with the provisions of TIA Section 310(b) after written request
therefor by the Company or by any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at least six months, or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) either Trustee shall cease to be eligible under Section 6.08 and shall fail to resign after written

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(5) If either Trustee shall resign, be removed or become incapable of acting, or if a vacancy shall occur in the
office of the U.S. Trustee or the Canadian Trustee for any cause, with respect to the Securities of one or more series, the Company, by a Board Resolution, shall

------

promptly appoint a successor Trustee or Trustees with respect to the Securities of that or those series (it being understood that any such successor Trustee may be appointed with respect to the Securities of one or more or all of such series) *provided, however*, that the Company shall not be required to appoint a successor Trustee to the Canadian Trustee if the Canadian Trustee resigns or is removed and a Canadian Trustee under this Indenture is no longer required under Trust Indenture Legislation. If, within one year after such resignation, removal or incapability, or the occurrence of such vacancy, a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series shall be appointed by Act of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series delivered to the Company and the retiring Trustee, the successor Trustee so appointed shall, forthwith upon its acceptance of such appointment, become the successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series and to that extent supersede the successor Trustee appointed by the Company. If no successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series shall have been so appointed by the Company or the Holders and accepted appointment in the manner hereinafter provided, any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security of such series for at least six months may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series. <br>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(6) The Company shall give notice of each resignation and each removal of a Trustee with respect to the Securities

Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series and the address of its Corporate Trust Office.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(7) If a Canadian Trustee under this Indenture is no longer required by Trust Indenture Legislation, then the
Company by a Board Resolution may remove the Canadian Trustee.

successor Trustee so appointed shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Company and to the retiring Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective and
such successor Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee; but, on the request of the Company or the successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee
shall, upon payment of its charges, execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor Trustee all the rights, powers and trusts of the retiring Trustee and shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee all property
and money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of one or more (but
not all) series, the Company, the retiring Trustee and each successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of one or more series shall execute and deliver an indenture supplemental hereto wherein each successor Trustee shall accept such
appointment and which (1) shall contain such provisions as shall be necessary or desirable to transfer and confirm to, and to vest in, each successor Trustee all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the
Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates, (2) if the retiring Trustee is not retiring with respect to all Securities, shall contain such provisions as shall

------

be deemed necessary or desirable to confirm that all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series as to which the retiring Trustee is not retiring shall continue to be vested in the retiring Trustee, and (3) shall add to or change any of the provisions of this Indenture as shall be necessary to provide for or facilitate the administration of the trusts hereunder by more than one Trustee, it being understood that nothing herein or in such supplemental indenture shall constitute such Trustees co-trustees of the same trust and that each such Trustee shall be trustee of a trust or trusts hereunder separate and apart from any trust or trusts hereunder administered by any other such Trustee; and upon the execution and delivery of such supplemental indenture the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective to the extent provided therein and each such successor Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates; but, on request of the Company or any successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee all property and money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates. Whenever there is a successor Trustee with respect to one or more (but less than all) series of Securities issued pursuant to this Indenture, the terms "Indenture" and "Securities" shall have the meanings specified in the provisos to the respective definitions of those terms in Section 1.01 which contemplate such situation. <br>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) Upon reasonable request of any such successor Trustee, the Company shall execute any and all instruments for
more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor Trustee all rights, powers and trusts referred to in paragraph (1) or (2) of this Section 6.10, as the case may be.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4) No successor Trustee shall accept its appointment unless at the time of such acceptance such successor Trustee
shall be qualified and eligible under this Article Six.

Any corporation into which either Trustee or its corporate trust business may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which either Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all the corporate trust business of either Trustee, shall be the successor of such Trustee hereunder, *provided* such corporation shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under this Article Six, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto. In case any Securities shall have been authenticated, but not delivered, by a Trustee then in office, any successor by merger, conversion or consolidation to such authenticating Trustee may adopt such authentication and deliver the Securities so authenticated with the same effect as if such successor Trustee had itself authenticated such Securities. In case any of the Securities shall not have been authenticated by such predecessor Trustee, any successor Trustee may authenticate such Securities either in the name of any predecessor hereunder or in the name of the successor Trustee. In all such cases such certificates shall have the full force and effect which this Indenture provides for the certificate of authentication of such Trustee; *provided, however*, that the right to adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor Trustee or to authenticate Securities in the name of any predecessor Trustee shall apply only to its successor or successors by merger, conversion or consolidation.

At any time when any of the Securities remain outstanding, the Trustees may appoint an Authenticating Agent or Agents, with respect to one or more series of Securities which shall be authorized to act on behalf of the Trustees to authenticate Securities of such series and the Trustees shall give written notice of such appointment to all Holders of Securities of the series with respect to which such Authenticating Agent will serve, in the manner provided for in Section 1.07. Securities so authenticated shall be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture and shall be valid and obligatory for all purposes as if authenticated by the applicable Trustee hereunder. Any such appointment shall be evidenced by an instrument in writing signed by a Responsible Officer of the Trustees, and a copy of such instrument shall be promptly furnished to the Company. Wherever reference is made in this Indenture to the authentication and delivery of Securities by the Trustees or either Trustee's certificate of authentication, such reference shall be deemed to include authentication and delivery on behalf of the Trustees by an Authenticating Agent and a certificate of authentication executed on behalf of the Trustees by an Authenticating Agent. Each Authenticating Agent shall be acceptable to the Company and shall at all times be a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America, any state thereof or the District of Columbia or the laws of Canada or any province thereof, authorized under such laws to act as Authenticating Agent, having a combined capital and surplus of not less than $50,000,000 and subject to supervision or examination by United States federal or state or Canadian federal or provincial authority. If such corporation publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of said supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section 6.12, the combined capital and surplus of such corporation shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time an Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6.12, it shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in this Section 6.12.

Any corporation into which an Authenticating Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which such Authenticating Agent shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to the corporate agency or corporate trust business of an Authenticating Agent, shall continue to be an Authenticating Agent, *provided* such corporation shall be otherwise eligible under this Section 6.12, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of the Trustees or the Authenticating Agent.

An Authenticating Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Trustees and to the Company. The Trustees may at any time terminate the agency of an Authenticating Agent by giving written notice thereof to such Authenticating Agent and to the Company. Upon receiving such a notice of resignation or upon such a termination, or in case at any time such Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6.12, the Trustees may appoint a successor Authenticating Agent which shall be acceptable to the Company and shall give written notice of such appointment to all Holders of Securities of the series with respect to which such Authenticating Agent will serve, in the manner provided for in Section 1.07. Any successor Authenticating Agent upon acceptance of its appointment hereunder shall become vested with all the rights, powers and duties of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as an Authenticating Agent. No successor Authenticating Agent shall be appointed unless eligible under the provisions of this Section 6.12.

The Trustees agree to pay to each Authenticating Agent from time to time reasonable compensation for its services under this Section 6.12, and the Trustees shall be entitled to be reimbursed for such payments, subject to the provisions of Section 6.07.

------

If an appointment with respect to one or more series is made pursuant to this Section 6.12, the Securities of such series may have endorsed thereon, in addition to either Trustee's certificate of authentication, an alternate certificate of authentication in the following form:

(Certificate of Authentication may be executed by either Trustee)

The rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred and imposed upon the Trustees are conferred and imposed upon and shall be exercised and performed by the U.S. Trustee and the Canadian Trustee individually, except to the extent the Trustees are required under Trust Indenture Legislation to perform such acts jointly, and neither Trustee shall be liable or responsible for the acts or omissions of the other Trustee.

------

Indenture to any of the U.S. Trustee or the Canadian Trustee shall be deemed for all purposes of this Indenture as delivery of such Writing to the Trustee. Each such Trustee in receipt of such Writing shall notify such other Trustee of its receipt of such Writing within two Business Days of such receipt *provided, however*, that any failure of such trustee in receipt of such Writing to so notify such other Trustee shall not be deemed as a deficiency in the delivery of such Writing to the Trustee.

Each Trustee shall retain the right not to act and shall not be liable for refusing to act if, due to a lack of information or for any other reason whatsoever, either Trustee, in its sole judgment, determines that such act might cause it to be in non-compliance with any applicable anti-money laundering or anti-terrorist legislation, regulation or guideline. Further, should either Trustee, in its sole judgment, determine at any time that its acting under this Indenture has resulted in its being in non-compliance with any applicable anti-money laundering or anti-terrorist legislation, regulation or guideline, then it shall have the right to resign on 10 days written notice to all parties provided (i) that such Trustee's written notice shall describe the circumstances of such non-compliance; and (ii) that if such circumstances are rectified to such Trustee's satisfaction within such 10 day period, then such resignation shall not be effective.

The parties hereto acknowledge that Canadian federal and provincial legislation addressing the protection of individuals' personal information (collectively, "**Privacy Laws**") applies to obligations and activities under this Indenture. Despite any other provision of this Indenture, neither party shall take or direct any action that would contravene, or cause the other to contravene, applicable Privacy Laws. The Company, prior to transferring, or causing to be transferred, personal information to the Canadian Trustee, shall obtain and retain required consents of the relevant individuals to the collection, use and disclosure of their personal information, or shall have determined that such consents either have been previously given and can be relied on or are not required under Privacy Laws. The Canadian Trustee shall use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that its services hereunder comply with Privacy Laws. Specifically, the Trustee agrees to (i) have designated a chief privacy officer; (ii) maintain policies and procedures to protect personal information and to receive and respond to any privacy complaint or inquiry; (iii) use personal information solely for the purposes of providing its services under or ancillary to this Indenture and not to use it for any other purpose except with the consent and direction of the Company; (iv) not sell or otherwise improperly disclose personal information to any third party; and (v) use employee administrative, physical and technological safeguards to reasonably secure and protect personal information against loss, theft or unauthorized access, use or modification.

It is expressly acknowledged and agreed that the Canadian Trustee may, in the course of providing services hereunder, collect or receive, use and disclose financial and other personal information about such parties and/or their representatives, as individuals, or about other individuals related to the subject matter hereof, and use such information for the following purposes:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) to provide the services required under this Indenture and other services that may be requested from time to
time;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) to help the Canadian Trustee manage its servicing relationships with such individuals;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) to meet the Canadian Trustee's legal and regulatory requirements; and

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) if social insurance numbers are collected by the Canadian Trustee, to perform tax reporting and to assist in
verification of an individual's identity for security purposes.

Further, each party agrees that it shall not provide or cause to be provided to the Canadian Trustee any personal information relating to an individual who is not a party to this Indenture unless that party has assured itself that such individual understands and has consented to the aforementioned uses and disclosures. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Company and the Trustees may, without liability, disclose information about the Holders and beneficial owners or potential Holders or potential beneficial owners of the Securities pursuant to subpoena or other order issued by a court of competent jurisdiction or when otherwise required by applicable law.

Each Trustee hereby accepts the trusts in this Indenture declared and provided for and agrees to perform the same upon the terms and conditions herein set forth and to hold all rights, privileges and benefits conferred hereby and by law in trust for the various persons who shall from time to time be holders, subject to all the terms and conditions herein set forth.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) The Company may also from time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies where the Securities of
one or more series may be presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind any such designation; *provided, however*, that no such designation or rescission shall in any manner relieve the Company of its
obligation to maintain an office or agency in accordance with the requirements set forth above for Securities of any series for such purposes. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustees of any such designation or rescission and of
any change in the location of any such other office or agency. Unless otherwise specified with respect to any Securities as contemplated by Section 3.01 with respect to a series of Securities, the Company hereby initially appoints the U.S.
Trustee at its Corporate Trust

------

Office as Paying Agent in such city and as its agent to receive all such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4) Unless otherwise specified with respect to any Securities pursuant to Section 3.01, if and so long as the
Securities of any series (i) are denominated in a Currency other than Dollars or (ii) may be payable in a Currency other than Dollars, or so long as it is required under any other provision of the Indenture, then the Company will maintain
with respect to each such series of Securities, or as so required, at least one Exchange Rate Agent.

| **SECTION 10.03** | **Money for Securities Payments to Be Held in Trust.**  |

---

If the Company shall at any time act as its own Paying Agent with respect to any series of Securities , it will, on or before each due date of the principal of, premium (if any) or interest (if any) on any of the Securities of that series, segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto a sum in the Currency in which the Securities of such series are payable (except as otherwise specified pursuant to Section 3.01 for the Securities of such series and except, if applicable, as provided in Sections 3.12(b), 3.12(d) and 3.12(e)) sufficient to pay the principal of, premium (if any) or interest (if any) on Securities of such series so becoming due until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided and will promptly notify the Trustees of its action or failure so to act.

Whenever the Company shall have one or more Paying Agents for any series of Securities, it will, prior to or on each due date of the principal of, premium (if any) or interest (if any) on any Securities of that series, deposit with a Paying Agent a sum (in the Currency described in the preceding paragraph) sufficient to pay the principal, premium (if any) or interest (if any) so becoming due, such sum to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such principal, premium or interest, and (unless such Paying Agent is a Trustee) the Company will promptly notify the Trustees of its action or failure so to act.

The Company will cause each Paying Agent (other than the Trustees) for any series of Securities to execute and deliver to the Trustees an instrument in which such Paying Agent shall agree with the Trustees, subject to the provisions of this 10.03 Section, that such Paying Agent will:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) hold all sums held by it for the payment of the principal of, premium (if any) and interest (if any) on
Securities of such series in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) give the Trustees notice of any default by the Company (or any other obligor upon the Securities of such
series) in the making of any payment of principal of, premium (if any) or interest (if any) on the Securities of such series; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) at any time during the continuance of any such default, upon the written request of the Trustees, forthwith pay
to the Trustees all sums so held in trust by such Paying Agent.

The Company may at any time, for the purpose of obtaining the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or for any other purpose, pay, or by Company Order direct any Paying Agent to pay, to the Trustees all sums held in trust by the Company or such Paying Agent, such sums to be held by the Trustees upon the same trusts as those upon which sums were held by the Company or such Paying Agent; and, upon such payment by any Paying Agent to the Trustees, such Paying Agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to such sums.

------

Except as provided in the Securities of any series, any money deposited with the Trustees or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Company, in trust for the payment of the principal of, premium (if any) or interest (if any) on any Security of any series, and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, premium or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Company on Company Request, or (if then held by the Company) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Security shall thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Company for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustees or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Company as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease.

The Company shall deliver to the Trustees upon demand evidence in such form as the Trustees may require as to compliance by the Company with any condition or covenant of the Company set out herein relating to any action required or permitted to be taken by the Company under this Indenture or as a result of any obligation imposed by this Indenture. For purposes of this Section 10.04, such compliance shall be determined without regard to any period of grace or requirement of notice under this Indenture.

---

The Company may, with respect to any series of Securities, omit in any particular instance to comply with any term, provision or condition in any covenants of the Company added to this Article Ten pursuant to Section 3.01(19) in connection with Securities of such series, if before the time for such compliance the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of all Outstanding Securities of any series, by Act of such Holders, waive such compliance in such instance with such term, provision or condition, but no such waiver shall extend to or affect such term, provision or condition except to the extent so expressly waived, and, until such waiver shall become effective, the obligations of the Company and the duties of the Trustees to Holders of Securities of such series in respect of any such term, provision or condition shall remain in full force and effect.

------

60 days prior to the Redemption Date fixed by the Company (unless a shorter notice shall be satisfactory to the Trustees), notify the Trustees of such Redemption Date and of the principal amount of Securities of such series to be redeemed and, in the case of certificated Securities, shall deliver to the Trustees such documentation and records as shall enable the Trustees to select the Securities to be redeemed pursuant to Section 11.03. In the case of any redemption of Securities prior to the expiration of any restriction on such redemption provided in the terms of such Securities or elsewhere in this Indenture, the Company shall furnish to the Trustees an Officer's Certificate evidencing compliance with such restriction.

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **SECTION 11.03** | **Selection by Trustees of Securities to Be Redeemed.**  |

If less than all the Securities of any series are to be redeemed, the particular Securities to be redeemed shall be selected not more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date by the Trustees, from the Outstanding Securities of such series not previously called for redemption, in the case of certificated Securities, by such method as the Trustees shall deem fair and appropriate and which may provide for the selection for redemption of portions of the principal of Securities of such series, or in the case of Securities in global form in accordance with the policies and procedures of the applicable Depositary; *provided, however*, that no such partial redemption shall reduce the portion of the principal amount of a Security not redeemed to less than the minimum authorized denomination for Securities of such series established pursuant to Section 3.01.

The Trustees shall promptly notify the Company in writing of the Securities selected for redemption and, in the case of any Securities selected for partial redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed.

All notices of redemption shall state:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) the Redemption Date,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) the Redemption Price and the amount of accrued interest to the Redemption Date payable as provided in
Section 11.06, if any,

case of partial redemption, the principal amounts) of the particular Securities to be redeemed,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4) in case any Security is to be redeemed in part only, the notice which relates to such Security shall state that

------

Security, the Holder will receive, without charge, a new Security or Securities of authorized denominations for the principal amount thereof remaining unredeemed, <br>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(5) that on the Redemption Date, the Redemption Price and accrued interest (if any) to the Redemption Date payable
as provided in Section 11.06 will become due and payable upon each such Security, or the portion thereof, to be redeemed and, if applicable, that interest thereon will cease to accrue on and after said date,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(6) the Place or Places of Payment where such Securities are to be surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price

Notice of redemption of Securities to be redeemed at the election of the Company shall be given by the Company or, at the Company's request, by the Trustees in the name and at the expense of the Company.

---

|:---|:---|
| **SECTION 11.05** | **Deposit of Redemption Price.**  |

---

Prior to any Redemption Date, the Company shall deposit with a Trustee or with a Paying Agent (or, if the Company is acting as its own Paying Agent, segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 10.03) an amount of money in the Currency in which the Securities of such series are payable (except as otherwise specified pursuant to Section 3.01 for the Securities of such series and except, if applicable, as provided in Sections 3.12(b), 3.12(d) and 3.12(e)) sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of, and accrued interest (if any) on, all the Securities which are to be redeemed on that date.

---

Notice of redemption having been given as aforesaid, the Securities so to be redeemed shall, on the Redemption Date, become due and payable at the Redemption Price therein specified in the Currency in which the Securities of such series are payable (except as otherwise specified pursuant to Section 3.01 for the Securities of such series and except, if applicable, as provided in Sections 3.12(b), 3.12(d) and 3.12(e)) (together with accrued interest (if any) to the Redemption Date), and from and after such date (unless the Company shall default in the payment of the Redemption Price and accrued interest (if any)) such Securities shall, if the same were interest-bearing, cease to bear interest. Upon surrender of any such Security for redemption in accordance with said notice, such Security shall be paid by the Company at the Redemption Price, together with accrued interest (if any), to the Redemption Date; *provided, however*, that installments of interest on Securities whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the Redemption Date shall be payable to the Holders of such Securities, or one or more Predecessor Securities, registered as such at the close of business on the relevant record dates according to their terms and the provisions of Section 3.07.

If any Security called for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the principal and premium (if any) shall, until paid, bear interest from the Redemption Date at the rate of interest or Yield to Maturity (in the case of Original Issue Discount Securities) set forth in such Security.

Any Security which is to be redeemed only in part (pursuant to the provisions of this Article Eleven or of Article Twelve) shall be surrendered at a Place of Payment therefor (with, if the Company or the Trustees so requires, due endorsement by, or a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Trustees duly executed by, the Holder thereof or such Holder's attorney duly authorized in writing), and the Company shall execute, and the applicable Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such Security without service charge, a new Security or Securities of the same series, of any authorized denomination as requested by such Holder, in aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal of the Security so surrendered.

**ARTICLE TWELVE** 

**SINKING FUNDS** 

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **SECTION 12.01** | **Applicability of Article.**  |

---

Retirements of Securities of any series pursuant to any sinking fund shall be made in accordance with the terms of such Securities and (except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.01 for Securities of any series) in accordance with this Article Twelve.

The minimum amount of any sinking fund payment provided for by the terms of Securities of any series is herein referred to as a "**mandatory sinking fund payment**," and any payment in excess of such minimum amount provided for by the terms of Securities of any series is herein referred to as an "**optional sinking fund payment**". If provided for by the terms of Securities of any series, the cash amount of any mandatory sinking fund payment may be subject to reduction as provided in Section 12.02. Each sinking fund payment shall be applied to the redemption of Securities of any series as provided for by the terms of Securities of such series.

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **SECTION 12.02** | **Satisfaction of Sinking Fund Payments with Securities.**  |

---

Subject to Section 12.03, in lieu of making all or any part of any mandatory sinking fund payment with respect to any Securities of a series in cash, the Company may at its option (1) deliver to the Trustees Outstanding Securities of a such series (other than any previously called for redemption) theretofore purchased or otherwise acquired by the Company, and/or (2) receive credit for the principal amount of Securities of such series which have been previously delivered to the Trustees by the Company or redeemed either at the election of the Company pursuant to the terms of such Securities or through the application of permitted optional sinking fund payments pursuant to the terms of such Securities, in each case in satisfaction of all or any part of any mandatory sinking fund payment with respect to the Securities of the same series required to be made pursuant to the terms of such Securities as provided for by the terms of such series; *provided, however*, that such Securities have not been previously so credited. Such Securities shall be received and credited for such purpose by the Trustees at the Redemption Price specified in such Securities for redemption through operation of the sinking fund and the amount of such mandatory sinking fund payment shall be reduced accordingly.

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **SECTION 12.03** | **Redemption of Securities for Sinking Fund.**  |

---

Not less than 60 days prior to each sinking fund payment date for any series of Securities, the Company will deliver to the Trustees an Officer's Certificate specifying the amount of the next ensuing sinking fund payment for that series pursuant to the terms of that series, the portion thereof, if any, which is to be satisfied by payment of cash in the Currency in which the Securities of such series are payable (except as otherwise specified pursuant to Section 3.01 for the Securities of such series and except, if

------

applicable, as provided in Sections 3.12(b), 3.12(d) and 3.12(e)) and the portion thereof, if any, which is to be satisfied by delivering or crediting Securities of that series pursuant to Section 12.02 (which Securities will, if not previously delivered, accompany such certificate) and whether the Company intends to exercise its right to make a permitted optional sinking fund payment with respect to such series.

Such certificate shall be irrevocable and upon its delivery the Company shall be obligated to make the cash payment or payments therein referred to, if any, on or before the next succeeding sinking fund payment date. In the case of the failure of the Company to deliver such certificate, the sinking fund payment due on the next succeeding sinking fund payment date for that series shall be paid entirely in cash and shall be sufficient to redeem the principal amount of such Securities subject to a mandatory sinking fund payment without the option to deliver or credit Securities as provided in Section 12.02 and without the right to make any optional sinking fund payment, if any, with respect to such series.

Not more than 60 days before each such sinking fund payment date the Trustees shall select the Securities to be redeemed upon such sinking fund payment date in the manner specified in Section 11.03 and cause notice of the redemption thereof to be given in the name of and at the expense of the Company in the manner provided in Section 11.04. Such notice having been duly given, the redemption of such Securities shall be made upon the terms and in the manner stated in Sections 11.06 and 11.07.

Prior to any sinking fund payment date, the Company shall pay to the Trustees or a Paying Agent (or, if the Company is acting as its own Paying Agent, segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 10.03) in cash a sum equal to any interest that will accrue to the date fixed for redemption of Securities or portions thereof to be redeemed on such sinking fund payment date pursuant to this 12.03 Section.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to a sinking fund for any series of Securities, if at any time the amount of cash to be paid into such sinking fund on the next succeeding sinking fund payment date, together with any unused balance of any preceding sinking fund payment or payments for such series, does not exceed in the aggregate $100,000, the Trustees, unless requested by the Company, shall not give the next succeeding notice of the redemption of Securities of such series through the operation of the sinking fund. Any such unused balance of moneys deposited in such sinking fund shall be added to the sinking fund payment for such series to be made in cash on the next succeeding sinking fund payment date or, at the request of the Company, shall be applied at any time or from time to time to the purchase of Securities of such series, by public or private purchase, in the open market or otherwise, at a purchase price for such Securities (excluding accrued interest and brokerage commissions, for which the Trustees or any Paying Agent will be reimbursed by the Company) not in excess of the principal amount thereof.

**ARTICLE THIRTEEN** 

**REPAYMENT AT OPTION OF HOLDERS** 

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **SECTION 13.01** | **Applicability of Article.**  |

Repayment of Securities of any series before their Stated Maturity at the option of Holders thereof shall be made in accordance with the terms of such Securities and (except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.01 for Securities of any series) in accordance with this Article Thirteen.

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **SECTION 13.02** | **Repayment of Securities.**  |

---

Securities of any series subject to repayment in whole or in part at the option of the Holders thereof will, unless otherwise provided in the terms of such Securities, be repaid at a price equal to the

------

principal amount thereof, together with interest (if any) thereon accrued to the Repayment Date specified in or pursuant to the terms of such Securities. The Company covenants that, with respect to such Securities, on or before the Repayment Date it will deposit with a Trustee or with a Paying Agent (or, if the Company is acting as its own Paying Agent, segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 10.03) an amount of money in the Currency in which the Securities of such series are payable (except as otherwise specified pursuant to Section 3.01 for the Securities of such series and except, if applicable, as provided in Sections 3.12(b), 3.12(d) and 3.12(e)) sufficient to pay the principal (or, if so provided by the terms of the Securities of any series, a percentage of the principal) of and (except if the Repayment Date shall be an Interest Payment Date) accrued interest (if any) on, all the Securities or portions thereof, as the case may be, to be repaid on such date.

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **SECTION 13.03** | **Exercise of Option.**  |

---

Securities of any series subject to repayment at the option of the Holders thereof will contain an "Option to Elect Repayment" form on the reverse of such Securities. To be repaid at the option of the Holder, any Security so providing for such repayment, with the "Option to Elect Repayment" form on the reverse of such Security duly completed by the Holder (or by the Holder's attorney duly authorized in writing), must be received by the Company at the Place of Payment therefor specified in the terms of such Security (or at such other place or places which the Company shall from time to time notify the Holders of such Securities) not earlier than 45 days nor later than 30 days prior to the Repayment Date. If less than the entire principal amount of such Security is to be repaid in accordance with the terms of such Security, the principal amount of such Security to be repaid, in increments of the minimum denomination for Securities of such series, and the denomination or denominations of the Security or Securities to be issued to the Holder for the portion of the principal amount of such Security surrendered that is not to be repaid, must be specified. The principal amount of any Security providing for repayment at the option of the Holder thereof may not be repaid in part if, following such repayment, the unpaid principal amount of such Security would be less than the minimum authorized denomination of Securities of the series of which such Security to be repaid is a part. Except as otherwise may be provided by the terms of any Security providing for repayment at the option of the Holder thereof, exercise of the repayment option by the Holder shall be irrevocable unless waived by the Company.

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **SECTION 13.04** | **When Securities Presented for Repayment Become Due and Payable.**  |

---

If Securities of any series providing for repayment at the option of the Holders thereof shall have been surrendered as provided in this Article Thirteen and as provided by or pursuant to the terms of such Securities, such Securities or the portions thereof, as the case may be, to be repaid shall become due and payable and shall be paid by the Company on the Repayment Date therein specified, and on and after such Repayment Date (unless the Company shall default in the payment of such Securities on such Repayment Date) such Securities shall, if the same were interest- bearing, cease to bear interest. Upon surrender of any such Security for repayment in accordance with such provisions, the principal amount of such Security so to be repaid shall be paid by the Company, together with accrued interest (if any) to the Repayment Date; *provided, however*, that, in the case of Securities, installments of interest (if any) whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the Repayment Date shall be payable to the Holders of such Securities, or one or more Predecessor Securities, registered as such at the close of business on the relevant Record Dates according to their terms and the provisions of Section 3.07.

If any Security surrendered for repayment shall not be so repaid upon surrender thereof for repayment, the principal amount and premium (if any) shall, until paid, bear interest from the Repayment Date at the rate of interest or Yield to Maturity (in the case of Original Issue Discount Securities) set forth in such Security.

------

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **SECTION 13.05** | **Securities Repaid in Part.**  |

---

Upon surrender of any Security which is to be repaid in part only, the Company shall execute and the applicable Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such Security, without service charge and at the expense of the Company, a new Security or Securities of the same series, of any authorized denomination specified by the Holder, in an aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the portion of the principal of such Security so surrendered which is not to be repaid.

---

Except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.01 for Securities of any series, the provisions of this Article Fourteen shall apply to each series of Securities, and the Company may, at its option, effect defeasance of the Securities of or within a series under Section 14.02, or covenant defeasance of or within a series under Section 14.03 in accordance with the terms of such Securities and in accordance with this Article Fourteen.

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **SECTION 14.02** | **Defeasance and Discharge.**  |

---

Upon the Company's exercise of the above option applicable to this Section 14.02 with respect to any Securities of or within a series, the Company shall be deemed to have been discharged from its obligations with respect to such Securities on the date the conditions set forth in Section 14.04 are satisfied (hereinafter, "**defeasance**"). For this purpose, such defeasance means that the Company shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire indebtedness represented by such Securities, which shall thereafter be deemed to be "Outstanding" only for the purposes of Section 14.05 and the other Sections of this Indenture referred to in (A) and (B) below, and to have satisfied all of its other obligations under such Securities and this Indenture insofar as such Securities are concerned (and the Trustees, at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except for the following which shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder: (A) the rights of Holders of such Securities to receive, solely from the trust fund described in Section 14.04 and as more fully set forth in such Section, payments in respect of the principal of, premium (if any) and interest (if any) on such Securities when such payments are due, (B) the Company's obligations with respect to such Securities under Sections 3.05, 3.06, 10.02 and 10.03, (C) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustees hereunder and (D) this Article Fourteen.

Upon the Company's exercise of the above option applicable to this Section 14.03 with respect to any Securities of or within a series, the Company shall be released from, if specified pursuant to Section 3.01, its obligations under any covenant, with respect to such Securities on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 14.04 are satisfied (hereinafter, "**covenant defeasance**"), and such Securities shall thereafter be deemed not to be "Outstanding" for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or declaration or Act of Holders (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with such covenants, but shall continue to be deemed "Outstanding" for all other purposes hereunder. For this purpose, such covenant defeasance means that, with respect to such Securities, the Company may omit to comply with and shall have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such covenant, whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such

------

covenant or by reason of reference in any such covenant to any other provision herein or in any other document and such omission to comply shall not constitute a Default or an Event of Default under clauses (4) or (7) of Section 5.01 or otherwise but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and such Securities shall be unaffected thereby.

with respect to such Securities. Before such a deposit, the Company may give to the Trustees, in accordance with Section 11.02, a notice of its election to redeem all or any portion of such Securities at a future date in accordance with the
terms of such Securities and Article Eleven hereof, which notice shall be irrevocable. Such irrevocable redemption notice, if given, shall be given effect in applying the foregoing.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) No Default or Event of Default with respect to such Securities shall have occurred and be continuing on the
date of such deposit or, insofar as clauses (5) and (6) of Section 5.01 are concerned, at any time during the period ending on the 91st day after the date of such deposit (it being understood that this condition shall not be deemed
satisfied until the expiration of such period).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) Such defeasance or covenant defeasance shall not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a Default or
an Event of Default under, this Indenture or any default under any material agreement or instrument to which the Company is a party or by which it is bound.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4) In the case of an election under Section 14.02, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustees an
Opinion of Counsel in the United States stating that (x) the Company has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling, or (y) since the date of execution of this Indenture, there has been a change in
the applicable United States federal income tax law, in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such opinion shall confirm that, the Holders of such Securities will not recognize income, gain or loss for United States federal income tax
purposes as a result of such defeasance and will be subject to United States federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such defeasance had not occurred.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(5) In the case of an election under Section 14.03, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustees an
Opinion of Counsel in the United States to the effect that the Holders of such Securities will not recognize income, gain or loss for United States federal income tax purposes as a result of such covenant defeasance and will be subject to United
States federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such covenant defeasance had not occurred.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(6) The Company shall have delivered to the Trustees an Opinion of Counsel in Canada or a ruling from the Canada
Revenue Agency to the effect that the Holders of such Securities will not recognize income, gain or loss for Canadian federal, provincial or territorial income tax or other tax purposes as a result of such defeasance or covenant defeasance, as
applicable, and will be subject to Canadian federal, provincial or territorial income tax and other tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case had such defeasance or covenant defeasance, as
applicable, not occurred (and for the purposes of such opinion, such Canadian counsel shall assume that Holders of such Securities include Holders who are not resident in Canada).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(7) The Company is not an "insolvent person" within the meaning of the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act
(Canada) on the date of such deposit or at any time during the period ending on the 91st day after the date of such deposit (it being understood that this condition shall not be deemed satisfied until the expiration of such period).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(8) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section 14.04, such defeasance or covenant defeasance shall
be effected in compliance with any additional or substitute terms, conditions or limitations in connection therewith pursuant to Section 3.01.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(9) The Company shall have delivered to the Trustees an Officer's Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each
stating that all conditions precedent provided for, relating to either the defeasance under Section 14.02 or the covenant defeasance under Section 14.03 (as the case may be), have been complied with.

| **SECTION 14.05** | **Deposited Money and Government Obligations to Be Held in Trust; Other Miscellaneous Provisions.**  |

---

Subject to the provisions of the last paragraph of Section 10.03, all money and Government Obligations (or other property as may be provided pursuant to Section 3.01) (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with a Trustee (or another trustee satisfying the requirements of Section 6.08 who shall agree to comply with the provisions of this Article Fourteen) pursuant to Section 14.04 in respect of such Securities shall be held in trust and applied by such Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of such Securities and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the

------

Company acting as its own Paying Agent), to the Holders of such Securities of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal, premium (if any) and interest (if any) on such Securities but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

Unless otherwise specified with respect to any Security pursuant to Section 3.01, if, after a deposit referred to in Section 14.04(1) has been made, (a) the Holder of a Security in respect of which such deposit was made is entitled to, and does, elect pursuant to Section 3.12(b) or the terms of such Security to receive payment in a Currency other than that in which the deposit pursuant to Section 14.04(1) has been made in respect of such Security, or (b) a Conversion Event occurs as contemplated in Section 3.12(d) or 3.12(e) or by the terms of any Security in respect of which the deposit pursuant to Section 14.04(1) has been made, the indebtedness represented by such Security shall be deemed to have been, and will be, fully discharged and satisfied through the payment of the principal of, premium (if any) and interest (if any) on such Security as they become due out of the proceeds yielded by converting (from time to time as specified below in the case of any such election) the amount or other property deposited in respect of such Security into the Currency in which such Security becomes payable as a result of such election or Conversion Event based on the applicable Market Exchange Rate for such Currency in effect on the third Business Day prior to each payment date, except, with respect to a Conversion Event, for such Currency in effect (as nearly as feasible) at the time of the Conversion Event.

The Company shall pay and indemnify such Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the Government Obligations deposited pursuant to Section 14.04 or the principal and interest received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other charge which by law is for the account of the Holders of such Securities.

Anything in this Article Fourteen to the contrary notwithstanding, such Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Company from time to time upon Company Request any money or Government Obligations (or other property and any proceeds therefrom) held by it as provided in Section 14.04 which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to such Trustee, are in excess of the amount thereof which would then be required to be deposited to effect an equivalent defeasance or covenant defeasance, as applicable, in accordance with this Article Fourteen.

|:---|:---|
| **SECTION 14.06** | **Reinstatement.**  |

---

If a Trustee or any Paying Agent is unable to apply any money in accordance with Section 14.05 by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, then the Company's obligations under this Indenture and such Securities shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 14.02 or 14.03, as the case may be, until such time as such Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money in accordance with Section 14.05; *provided, however*, that if the Company makes any payment of principal of, premium (if any) or interest (if any) on any such Security following the reinstatement of its obligations, the Company shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Securities to receive such payment from the money held by such Trustee or Paying Agent.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Indenture to be duly executed, all as of the day and year first above written.
