Election of Directors to Our Board of Directors
UEC's 3-year stock return of +208.9% outperforms the company-disclosed peer group median by +94.1 percentage points, well above the 50-point threshold needed to trigger a vote against; Adnani serves on two outside public company boards as a sitting CEO which is at the policy limit of two outside seats, and the company has reviewed and approved this arrangement given UEC's ownership stake in Uranium Royalty Corp.; no overboarding, attendance, independence, or family relationship concerns exist.
The TSR trigger does not apply given UEC's strong outperformance versus peers; Abraham serves on three public company boards (UEC, PBF Energy, and Two Harbors) which is within the four-board limit for non-executive directors; he is independent, attended 100% of meetings, and brings deep energy policy and board experience.
Strong TSR outperformance means the performance trigger does not apply; Kong is independent, serves as audit committee chair with a CPA designation satisfying financial expertise requirements, attended 100% of meetings, and has no overboarding, family, or independence concerns.
The TSR trigger does not apply; Della Volpe is independent, serves as compensation committee chair with relevant finance background, attended 100% of meetings, and raises no overboarding, family, or independence concerns.
The TSR trigger does not apply; Ballesta is independent, serves on audit and compensation committees, attended 100% of meetings, and raises no overboarding, family, or independence concerns.
Canty joined in March 2023 — approximately 39 months before this meeting — so she is outside the 24-month new-director exemption but her tenure covers only a portion of the measurement period; the TSR trigger does not apply in any case given strong peer outperformance; she is independent, attended 100% of meetings, and brings strong legal and energy industry experience.
All six director nominees receive a FOR vote. UEC's 3-year stock return of +208.9% outperforms the company-disclosed peer group median by +94.1 percentage points, far exceeding the +50-point threshold required to trigger a vote against any director under the strong-positive-TSR tier. No director is overboarded, all attended 100% of meetings, all independent directors serve only on committees for which they qualify, and no family relationships with senior management exist. The board skills matrix is disclosed and substantive.
Say on Pay
✓ FORCEO
Amir Adnani
Total Comp
$6,356,248
Prior Support
95%%
The CEO received total compensation of approximately $6.4 million for fiscal 2025, which is within a reasonable range for a CEO at a $4.7 billion uranium company given the company's exceptional performance — UEC delivered a 3-year stock return of +208.9%, significantly outperforming its peer group median. The pay structure is strongly performance-oriented, with 90% of the CEO's total compensation classified as variable or at-risk, including stock awards tied to relative total shareholder return over three-year periods and a short-term bonus tied to operational, balance sheet, safety, and business development goals that were all achieved at breakthrough levels. The prior say-on-pay vote received approximately 95% shareholder support, a clawback policy meeting Dodd-Frank requirements is in place, and no meaningful governance concerns exist with the compensation program.

Non-Audit Fees
N/A
The proxy filing text does not include an auditor fee table with specific dollar amounts for audit and non-audit fees in the portion provided, so the non-audit fee ratio trigger cannot be confirmed as firing; PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP is a Big Four firm and fully appropriate for a $4.7 billion company; auditor tenure is not disclosed in the filing so the tenure trigger cannot fire per policy; absent confirmed data triggering a No vote, the default FOR vote applies.
Overall Assessment
This is a routine annual meeting for Uranium Energy Corp. with three proposals: electing six directors, ratifying PricewaterhouseCoopers as auditor, and an advisory say-on-pay vote. All three proposals receive a FOR vote — UEC's outstanding 3-year stock performance eliminates any director TSR concerns, the compensation program is heavily performance-linked and received 95% shareholder support last year, and no stockholder proposals were submitted for consideration.
