1.1                   Acquisition of the Mineral Assets and Acquisition Consideration.   Each of the Vendors hereby agrees to sell, assign and transfer a 100% undivided right, title and interest in and to all of the mineral property interests comprising their respective Mineral Assets in exchange for the following aggregate consideration to be paid and delivered in the following manner:

The Vendors, the Purchaser and UEC hereby also acknowledge and understand that neither the sale of the Acquisition Shares, nor any of the Acquisition Shares themselves, have been registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws, and, furthermore, that the Acquisition Shares must be held indefinitely unless subsequently registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from such registration is available.  The Vendors, the Purchaser and UEC also acknowledge and understand that the certificate(s) representing the Acquisition Shares will be stamped with the following legend (or substantially equivalent language) restricting transfer in the following manner if such restriction is required by applicable securities laws:

"THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE UNITED STATES SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "1933 ACT") OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS.  THESE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED EXCEPT (A) PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE 1933 ACT, (B) TO Uranium Energy Corp. (THE "CORPORATION"), (C) IN ACCORDANCE WITH RULE 144 UNDER THE 1933 ACT, IF AVAILABLE, AND IN COMPLIANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, (D) IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE PROVISIONS OF REGULATION S, IF AVAILABLE, OR (E) IN A TRANSACTION THAT DOES NOT OTHERWISE REQUIRE REGISTRATION UNDER THE 1933 ACT OR ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS IF AN OPINION OF COUNSEL, OF RECOGNIZED STANDING REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE CORPORATION, HAS BEEN PROVIDED TO THE CORPORATION TO THAT EFFECT.  THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THE CERTIFICATE CANNOT BE THE SUBJECT OF HEDGING TRANSACTIONS UNLESS SUCH TRANSACTIONS ARE CONDUCTED IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE 1933 ACT AND OTHER APPLICABLE SECURITIES LAWS."; and

"UNLESS PERMITTED UNDER SECURITIES LEGISLATION, THE HOLDER OF THIS SECURITY MUST NOT TRADE THE SECURITY BEFORE [four months and one day from the Closing Date]";

and each of the Vendors hereby consents to UEC making a notation on its records or giving instructions to UEC's transfer agent of the Acquisition Shares in order to implement the restrictions on transfer set forth and described hereinabove.

1.3                   Right of Purchaser to terminate Agreement.   Prior to the Closing Date the Purchaser or UEC may terminate this Agreement by providing a notice of termination to each of the Vendors in writing of its desire to do so at least 14 calendar days prior to its decision to do so.  After such 14-calendar days' period the Purchaser and UEC shall have no further obligations, financial or otherwise, under this Agreement, except that the provisions of section "1.4" hereinbelow shall become immediately applicable to the Purchaser and UEC upon providing such notice of termination to each of the Vendors.  If the Agreement is so terminated by the Purchaser, then the Purchaser shall have no right, entitlement or interest, legally or equitably, in and to any of the Mineral Assets.

- 5 -

1.4                   Obligations upon termination of the Agreement.   If this Agreement is terminated by the Purchaser in accordance with section "1.2" hereinabove, then the Purchaser shall deliver at no cost to the Vendors, within 30 calendar days of such termination, all originals and all copies of any materials with respect to the Mineral Assets and including, without limitation, all reports, maps, assay results and other relevant technical data compiled by or in the possession of the Purchaser with respect to the interests comprising the Mineral Assets and not theretofore already furnished to the Vendors.

1.5                   Standstill provisions respecting the Vendors.   In consideration of the Purchaser's and UEC's within agreement for the proposed Acquisition and to enter into the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each of the Vendors hereby undertakes for itself, and for each of its respective agents and advisors, that it will not until the earlier of the Closing Date or the termination of this Agreement approach or consider any other potential purchasers, or make, invite, entertain or accept any offer or proposal for the proposed sale of any interest in and to any of its Mineral Assets or of any of the Vendors' respective and underlying securities or business interests, as the case may be, or, for that matter, disclose any of the terms of this Agreement, without each of the Purchaser's and UEC's prior written consent.  In this regard each of the Vendors acknowledges that the foregoing restrictions are important to the respective businesses of the Purchaser and UEC and that a breach by any of the Vendors of any of the covenants herein contained would result in irreparable harm and significant damage to each of the Purchaser and UEC that would not be adequately compensated for by monetary award.  Accordingly, each of the Vendors agrees that, in the event of any such breach, in addition to being entitled as a matter of right to apply to a Court of competent equitable jurisdiction for relief by way of restraining order, injunction, decree or otherwise as may be appropriate to ensure compliance with the provisions hereof, each Vendor will also be liable to the Purchaser and UEC, as liquidated damages, for an amount equal to the amount received and earned by any such Vendor as a result of and with respect to any such breach.  The Parties hereby also acknowledge and agree that if any of the aforesaid restrictions, activities, obligations or periods are considered by a Court of competent jurisdiction as being unreasonable, they agree that said Court shall have authority to limit such restrictions, activities or periods as the Court deems proper in the circumstances.

1.6                   Right of first refusal from the Vendors to the Purchaser and UEC respecting any other property holding.   At any time after the Closing Date and for a period of two years following the Closing Date, and subject to all applicable laws (and including, without limitation, the mining laws of Paraguay as the same may exist from time to time), the Vendors, together with any of the Vendors' respective shareholders, directors, officers, employees, associates, affiliates and nominees, as the case may be (collectively, the "Vendors" herein), hereby grants to either of UEC or the Purchaser, as UEC may determine, from time to time, in UEC's sole and absolute discretion, a right of first refusal to acquire all or any portion of any interest in any mineral property interest in Paraguay which any of the Vendors may have an interest in at anytime and which the any of the Vendors desire to dispose of (herein, collectively, the "Holding").   If a Vendor receives a bona fide offer to purchase from, or where a sale is solicited by such Vendor, then, upon settling the proposed terms thereof with a third party for the purchase or sale of the Holding, such Vendor shall forthwith offer to sell the Holding to UEC.  The offer to sell to UEC shall be on the same terms and conditions and of equivalent dollar value as those contained in the offer to the third party; provided, however, that should such Vendor and UEC fail to agree upon a determination of the equivalent dollar value for any such offer, such equivalent dollar value shall be determined finally by arbitration under the provisions contained in this Agreement.   UEC shall be entitled to elect, by notice to any such disposing Vendor within 30 calendar days from the date of receipt of the offer to sell, to acquire the Holding, on the same terms and conditions as those set forth in the offer to the third party.  If UEC does not exercise its right to acquire the Holding as aforesaid, such Vendor may, for a period of 30 calendar days following the last date upon which UEC could have made the election hereinabove, dispose of the Holding, but only on the same terms and conditions as set forth in that offer.   Any transfer of all or any part of a Vendor's Holding interest herein shall be accompanied by the written agreement of any such transferee to assume the obligations of the Vendor hereunder respecting the Holding and to be bound by the terms and conditions hereof.

- 6 -

1.7                   Royalty, right to purchase and right of first refusal for the Royalty.   At any time after the Closing Date, however, subject to the right to purchase provided for immediately hereinbelow, and as a condition to the due and complete completion of the within Acquisition, it is hereby acknowledged and agreed that, as part of and not in addition to the "Existing Royalty" (as hereinafter defined), the Purchaser shall remain continually obligated to pay to the order and direction of the Vendors an aggregate overriding royalty (the "Royalty" herein) equal to one and one-half percent (1.5%) of the gross proceeds received by the Purchaser in connection with any uranium which is produced and sold in relation to any mineral interests comprising the Mineral Assets hereunder.

                       The Parties hereby acknowledge and agree that the within Royalty forms part of and is not in addition to that certain existing overriding royalty of the exact same terms (the "Existing Royalty"; and together with the within Royalty being, collectively, the "Royalty" going forward) which has already been granted by UEC and its subsidiary, UEC Paraguay Corp. ("UEC Paraguay"), to a Paraguayan private company and its requisite vendor, in accordance with the terms and conditions and the prior closing; effective on May 23, 2011; of that certain "Share Exchange Agreement" dated for reference as of October 14, 2010 (the "Share Exchange Agreement"), as entered into among UEC, UEC Paraguay and the within Purchaser, and pursuant to which the Purchaser was acquired by UEC Paraguay as already being the 100% legal, beneficial and registered holders of certain other valuable mineral property concession interests which are located in Paraguay and which are particularly described in the Share Exchange Agreement.

                       For the purposes of calculating and paying the subject Royalty the following provisions shall apply (which are essentially identical to the provisions already set forth in the Share Exchange Agreement and which are inclusive going forward):

(a)       the Purchaser shall give notice to the Vendors of the date on which uranium is first mined or extracted from any of the mineral interests comprising the Mineral Assets;

(b)       the amount of the Royalty payable to the Vendors shall be calculated by the Purchaser at the end of each quarterly period for UEC (that being as at each of July 31st, October 31st, January 31st and April 30th, respectively, at the moment) and shall be paid to the Vendors on or before the last day of the next following quarter.  Any adjustments in the payment of the Royalty hereunder arising out of an audit referred to in paragraph "1.7(d)" hereinbelow shall be made and paid at that time;

(c)       for the purposes of calculating the amount of the Royalty payable to the Vendors hereunder only, if, after the date that uranium is first mined or extracted from any of the mineral interests comprising the Mineral Assets, the Purchaser sells any uranium to one of its subsidiaries or affiliates, and if the sale price of such uranium is not negotiated on an arm's length basis, the Purchaser shall, for the purposes of calculating the Royalty only, and notwithstanding the actual amount of such sale price, add to the proceeds from the sale of such uranium an amount which would be sufficient to make such sale price represent a reasonable net sale price for such uranium as if negotiated at pertinent circumstances (including, without limitation, then current market conditions relating to uranium);

- 7 -

(d)       the Purchaser shall by notice inform the Vendors of the quantum of such reasonable net sale price, and if the Vendors do not object thereto within 30 calendar days after receipt of such notice said quantum shall be final and binding for the purposes of this paragraph;

(e)       on or before the last day of each quarterly period for UEC of each year after uranium is first mined or extracted from any of the mineral interests comprising the Mineral Assets, the Purchaser shall deliver to the Vendors a statement indicating, in reasonable detail, as of the last day of the immediately preceding quarter, the calculation of the Royalty and the aggregate Royalty payable for such quarter;

(f)       the Purchaser agrees to maintain for each operation on any of the mineral interests comprising the Mineral Assets up-to-date and complete records relating to the uranium and sales thereof and the Vendors or their respective agents shall have the right, at all reasonable times, to inspect such records and make copies thereof at their own expense for the purpose of verifying the amount of the Royalty payments to be made by the Purchaser to the Vendors pursuant hereto.  The Vendor shall have the right at its own expense to have such Royalty accounts audited by independent auditors acceptable to each of the Vendors and UEC once each year; and if such independent auditors are not agreed upon, then UEC's independent auditors; and if the Vendors' audit reveals a shortfall of any nature whatsoever, the cost of such audit shall be borne by the Purchaser;

(g)       the Purchaser shall have an audited statement prepared by UEC's independent auditors for each fiscal year of UEC (that being as at July 31st at the moment) with respect to the Royalty payable to the Vendor hereunder by the 90th calendar day in the following year, and the Purchaser shall forthwith deliver a copy of such statement to the Vendors; and

(h)       all the Royalty payments shall be considered final and in full satisfaction of all obligations of the Purchaser making the same in respect thereof if such payments or the calculations in respect thereof are not disputed by the Vendors within 60 calendar days after receipt by the Vendors of the audited statement referred to in paragraph "1.7(g)" hereinabove.  Any disputes under this paragraph shall be decided by arbitration as provided for in the Agreement.

                       At any time, and from time to time, after Closing the Purchaser shall have the sole and exclusive right and option, exercisable at any time in writing, in its sole and absolute discretion; and as already provided for in the Share Exchange Agreement; however, subject, at all times, to the Royalty then due and payable having first been paid in full to the Vendors; to acquire one-half percent (0.5%) of the aggregate Royalty interest hereunder and thereunder (that being one-third of the entire 1.5%) at a Royalty purchase price of U.S. $500,000.00 (the "Royalty Purchase Price") for such one-third Royalty interest; with the Royalty Purchase Price to be due and payable by the Purchaser to the order and direction the Vendors within five calendar days of the Purchaser's election to do so.

- 8 -

                       In addition, and at any time, and from time to time, after Closing; and as already provided for in the Share Exchange Agreement; the Vendors hereby grant to either of UEC or the Purchaser, as UEC may determine, from time to time, in UEC's sole and absolute discretion, a right of first refusal to acquire all or any portion of the remaining one percent (1.0%) of the aggregate Royalty interest hereunder which any Vendor desire to dispose of (herein, collectively, again, the "Holding").   If a Vendor receives a bona fide offer to purchase from, or where a sale is solicited by such Vendor, then upon settling the proposed terms thereof with a third party for the purchase or sale of the Holding, said Vendor shall forthwith offer to sell the Holding to UEC.  The offer to sell to UEC shall be on the same terms and conditions and of equivalent dollar value as those contained in the offer to the third party; provided, however, that should such Vendor and UEC fail to agree upon a determination of the equivalent dollar value for any such offer, such equivalent dollar value shall be determined finally by arbitration under the provisions contained in this Agreement.   UEC shall be entitled to elect, by notice to such Vendor within 30 calendar days from the date of receipt of the offer to sell, to acquire the Holding, on the same terms and conditions as those set forth in the offer to the third party.  If UEC does not exercise its right to acquire the Holding as aforesaid, that Vendor may, for a period of 30 calendar days following the last date upon which UEC could have made the election hereinabove, dispose of the Holding, but only on the same terms and conditions as set forth in that offer.   Any transfer of all or any part of a Vendor's Holding interest herein shall be accompanied by the written agreement of any such transferee to assume the obligations of such Vendor hereunder respecting the Holding and to be bound by the terms and conditions hereof.

For purposes of such investigations, the Vendors will give to the Purchaser and its agents and representatives effective on the Effective Date full access to all property interests underlying the Mineral Assets together with all books, records, financial and operating data and other information concerning the Mineral Assets interests as the Purchaser and its agents and representatives may reasonably request.  If, at any time during the Purchaser's Due Diligence Period, the Purchaser determines that it is not satisfied, in its sole discretion, with the results of such investigations, it may elect not to proceed with the transactions contemplated hereby.

Article 14

INDEMNIFICATION AND LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

14.1                 Indemnification.   Each of the Parties agrees to indemnify and save harmless the other Parties and including, where applicable, the other Parties' respective affiliates, directors, officers, employees and agents (each such party being an "Indemnified Party") harmless from and against any and all losses, claims, actions, suits, proceedings, damages, liabilities or expenses of whatever nature or kind, including any investigation expenses incurred by any Indemnified Party, to which an Indemnified Party may become subject by reason of the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

14.2                 No indemnification.   This indemnity will not apply in respect of an Indemnified Party in the event and to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction in a final judgment shall determine that the Indemnified Party was grossly negligent or guilty of willful misconduct.

14.3                 Claim of indemnification.   The Parties agree to waive any right they might have of first requiring the Indemnified Party to proceed against or enforce any other right, power, remedy, security or claim payment from any other person before claiming this indemnity.

14.4                 Notice of claim.   In case any action is brought against an Indemnified Party in respect of which indemnity may be sought against any of the Parties, the Indemnified Party will give the relevant Party prompt written notice of any such action of which the Indemnified Party has knowledge and such Party will undertake the investigation and defense thereof on behalf of the Indemnified Party, including the prompt employment of counsel acceptable to the Indemnified Party affected and the payment of all expenses.  Failure by the Indemnified Party to so notify shall not relieve any Party of such Party's obligation of indemnification hereunder unless (and only to the extent that) such failure results in a forfeiture by any Party of substantive rights or defenses.

14.5                 Settlement.   No admission of liability and no settlement of any action shall be made without the consent of each of the Parties and the consent of the Indemnified Party affected, such consent not to be unreasonable withheld.

14.6                 Legal proceedings.   Notwithstanding that the relevant Party will undertake the investigation and defense of any action, an Indemnified Party will have the right to employ separate counsel in any such action and participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel will be at the expense of the Indemnified Party unless:

(a)       such counsel has been authorized by the relevant Party;

(b)       the relevant Party has not assumed the defense of the action within a reasonable period of time after receiving notice of the action;

- 24 -

(c)       the named parties to any such action include any Party and the Indemnified Party shall have been advised by counsel that there may be a conflict of interest between any Party and the Indemnified Party; or

(d)       there are one or more legal defenses available to the Indemnified Party which are different from or in addition to those available to any Party.

14.7                 Contribution.   If for any reason other than the gross negligence or bad faith of the Indemnified Party being the primary cause of the loss claim, damage, liability, cost or expense, the foregoing indemnification is unavailable to the Indemnified Party or insufficient to hold them harmless, the relevant Party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the Indemnified Party as a result of any and all such losses, claim, damages or liabilities in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits received by any Party on the one hand and the Indemnified Party on the other, but also the relative fault of the Parties and other equitable considerations which may be relevant.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the relevant Party shall in any event contribute to the amount paid or payable by the Indemnified Party, as a result of the loss, claim, damage, liability, cost or expense (other than a loss, claim, damage, liability, cost or expenses, the primary cause of which is the gross negligence or bad faith of the Indemnified Party), any excess of such amount over the amount of the fees actually received by the Indemnified Party hereunder.
