(a) Liability for Certain Acts. Each Director and officer shall perform his duties (i) in good faith; (ii) in a manner the person reasonably believes to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company and (iii) with such care as an ordinarily prudent person in a like position would use under similar circumstances. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (1) Directors may vote or consent in accordance with the interest of the Member appointing them, and shall not be held liable to the Company or any Member for a breach of any obligation to the Company or a Member when acting in accordance with any such interest and (2) the Directors and officers shall not be liable to the Company or any Member for any action taken or omission in managing the business or affairs of the Company if the Directors and officers have the reasonable belief that such act or omission is in or is not contrary to the best interests of the Company and is within the scope of authority granted to them by the Agreement. In performing his duties, a Director or officer shall be entitled to rely on any information, opinion, report, or statement, including any financial statement or other financial data, prepared or presented by (x) any officer (in the case of a Director) or any other officer (in the case of an officer) or any employee of the Company whom the person reasonably believes to be reliable and competent in the matters presented; (y) a lawyer, certified public accountant, or other person, as to a matter which the person reasonably believes to be within such person’s professional or expert competence; or (z) with respect to a Director only, a committee of the Board of Directors on which the Director does not serve, as to a matter within the committee’s designated authority, if the Director reasonably believes the committee to merit confidence. However, a Director or officer will not be acting in good faith if he has any actual knowledge concerning the matter in question which would cause such reliance to be unwarranted.

(b) Members.

(i) The Company shall indemnify, advance expenses and hold each Director and each officer harmless against any and all claims, actions, demands, costs, expenses (including attorneys’ fees), damages and losses as a result of any allegation, claim or proceeding relating to any act, decision or omission concerning the activities of the Company and/or the authority granted such person pursuant to this Agreement, except for fraud. The Board of Directors may cause the Company to indemnify and advance expenses to other employees and agents of the Company to the same or to a lesser extent as indemnification is provided to the Directors and officers. Any indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by the Company shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns of the person entitled to indemnification.

(ii) The foregoing rights of indemnification shall not be exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification may be entitled.

(iii) The Board of Directors may take such action as is necessary to carry out these indemnification provisions and is expressly empowered to adopt, approve and amend from time to time resolutions or contracts implementing such provisions and to provide for any further indemnification arrangements as may be permitted by law. No amendment of this Agreement or repeal of any of its provisions shall limit or eliminate the right to indemnification or advancement of expenses provided hereunder with respect to any act or omission occurring prior to such amendment or repeal. The Company may, if the Board of Directors deems it appropriate in its sole discretion, obtain insurance for the benefit of the Board of Directors and the officers, employees and agents of the Company.

(iv) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no person serving as a Director or officer shall be liable to the Company or any Member for money damages except to the extent that (1) it is proved that the person actually received an improper benefit or profit in money, property, or services for the amount of the benefit or profit in money, property, or services actually received, or (2) a judgment or other final adjudication adverse to the person is entered in a proceeding based on a finding in the proceeding that the person’s action, or failure to act, was the result of active and deliberate dishonesty and was material to the cause of action adjudicated in the proceeding. No amendment of this Agreement or repeal of any of its provisions shall limit or eliminate the limitation on liability for money damages provided to Directors and officers hereunder with respect to any act or omission occurring prior to such amendment or repeal.

(v) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the advancement of expenses to any Person shall be conditioned upon the Person seeking such advancement providing the Company (1) a written affirmation that the Person has a good faith belief that the standard of conduct necessary for indemnification as provided in this Section 7.5 has been met and (2) a written undertaking to repay the amount advanced if it is ultimately determined that the standard of conduct was not met.

(d) Indemnification of Members by Other Members. If a Member breaches the IP or confidentiality requirements or a Member’s IP is alleged to infringe on that of a third party, the breaching or allegedly infringing Member shall indemnify, defend, protect, save and hold harmless the other Member against any and all losses, liabilities, judgments, awards and costs (including legal fees and out-of-pocket expenses reasonably incurred by such Member) arising out of or related to any claim in whole or in part based on such IP or confidentiality breach of the breaching Member. The Members shall remain liable for infringement claims based on IP they have contributed and for their IP or confidentiality breaches notwithstanding any transfer of Membership interests to a transferee, unless such transferee i) specifically assumes the transferring Member’s infringement claim liability, and ii) is of equal or greater financial strength than the transferring Member. In such case, the transferring Member shall reasonably cooperate with the transferee in the infringement indemnification process.

Section 7.6 Member Approvals. Except as provided in this Section 7.6, no act of the Company requires consent of the Members. Accordingly, except as provided in this Section 7.6, wherever the Act would otherwise require consent of the Members to approve or take any action, such consent shall not be required.

(i) Each Member’s Capital Account shall be increased by the amount of any money and the Gross Asset Value of any other property and/or services contributed to the Company by such Member (net of liabilities secured by contributed property that the Company is considered to assume or take subject to under Section 752 of the Code), as may be adjusted pursuant to a revaluation, as well as any Net Income allocated to such Member pursuant to this Section 8.4 and the amount of any Company liabilities assumed by such Member or secured by any Company assets distributed to such Member.

(ii) Each Member’s Capital Account shall be decreased by the amount of money and the Gross Asset Value of any other Company property distributed to such Member pursuant to any provision of this Agreement, any Net Losses allocated to such Member pursuant to this Section 8.4 (including the Member’s share of expenditures described in Section 705(a)(2)(B) of the Code) and the amount of any liabilities of such Member assumed by the Company.

(iii) In the event any Member’s Membership Interest (or portion thereof) is transferred in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the transferee shall succeed to the Capital Account of such Member to the extent such Capital Account relates to the transferred Membership Interest (or portion thereof) and the Company’s Net Income and Net Loss shall be allocated between the transferor and the transferee on a basis consistent with applicable requirements under Section 706 of the Code; provided that no allocation agreed to between the transferor and the transferee shall be effective unless (A) the transferor and the transferee shall have given the Company written notice, prior to the effective date of such Transfer, stating their agreement that such allocation shall be made on a certain basis consistent with the applicable requirements under Section 706 of the Code, (B) the Tax Matters Partner shall have consented, in its sole discretion, to the manner the transferor and transferee have agreed to with respect to such allocation and (C) the transferor and the transferee shall have agreed to reimburse the Company for any incremental accounting fees and other expenses incurred by the Company in making such allocation.

(b) For Capital Account purposes, and only as between the Initial Members, Net Income and Net Losses of the Company initially and whenever necessary thereafter shall be allocated among the Initial Members so as to expeditiously result in the Initial Members’ Capital Accounts being equal in value to one another, as follows:

¨ Step 1: profits and losses will first be allocated to cause the capital accounts of the Initial Members to be equal.

¨ Step 2: Profits and losses allocated to the initial Members will then be allocated 50-50 between such Initial Members.

(c) After giving effect to the special allocations required by this Agreement (including pursuant to Sections 6.3, 8.4(e), (f), (g), and (h), if any), Net Income and Net Loss of the Company for each Fiscal Year (or shorter tax accounting period selected by the Tax Matters Partner or as required by law) shall be allocated among the Members, based on their Percentage Interest.

(d) For U.S. federal, state and local income Tax purposes, items of income, gain, loss, and deduction shall be allocated to the Members in accordance with the allocations of the corresponding items for Capital Account purposes under this Section 8.4, except that each Member’s allocable share of each item of income, gain, loss and deduction shall be adjusted to reflect the difference between such Member’s share of the adjusted tax basis and the Gross Asset Value of each of the Company assets, and the Board of Directors shall specially allocate any adjustments pursuant to Section 482 of the Code, if any, to the Members that may be subject to such potential adjustments. The adjusted Tax basis and the Gross Asset Value (for the Company) of the Initial Capital Contributions of the Company assets are indicated in Exhibit A (as it may be amended or supplemented from time-to-time). The Company shall elect to use the “Traditional Method” of making tax allocations described in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-3 with respect to Company assets, unless the Board of Directors elects otherwise. This provision is intended to comply with the requirements of Section 704(c) of the Code, the Treasury Regulations thereunder, and Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(4)(i) and shall be interpreted as in conformity therewith. Credits (including without limitation credits under Section 45J of the Code) shall be allocated among the Members in accordance with their respective Percentage Interests.

(e) The provisions of this Section 8.4 and the other provisions of this Agreement relating to the maintenance of Capital Accounts are intended to comply with the rules of Treasury Regulations Section 1.704 and shall be interpreted and applied in a manner consistent with such Regulations. The Board of Directors shall be authorized to make appropriate amendments to the allocations of items pursuant to this Section 8.4 if necessary in order to comply with Section 704 of the Code or applicable Treasury Regulations thereunder.

(f) In the event the Company incurs any nonrecourse liabilities within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(b)(3), income and gain shall be allocated in accordance with the “minimum gain chargeback” provisions of Sections 1.704-1(b)(4)(iv) and 1.704-2 of the Treasury Regulations.

(g) In the event either Member unexpectedly receives any adjustments, allocations, or distributions described in Treasury Regulations Sections 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5) and (6), items of Company income and gain shall be specially allocated to such Member in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate as quickly as possible any deficit balance in its Capital Account in excess of that permitted under Section 8.4(h) created by such adjustments, allocations or distributions. Any special allocations of items of income or gain pursuant to this Section 8.4(g) shall be taken into account in computing subsequent allocations pursuant to this Section 8.4 so that the net amount of any items so allocated and all other items allocated to each Member pursuant to this Section 8.4 shall, to the extent possible, be equal to the net amount that would have been allocated to each such Member pursuant to the provisions of this Section 8.4 if such unexpected adjustments, allocations or distributions had not occurred.

(h) Notwithstanding any provision set forth in this Section 8.4, no item of deduction or loss shall be allocated to a Member to the extent the allocation would cause a negative balance in such Member’s Capital Account (after crediting to such Capital Account any amounts that such Member is deemed to be obligated to restore pursuant to Treasury Regulations Sections 1.704-2(g) and 1.704-2(i)(5), and after taking into account the adjustments, allocations and distributions described in Treasury Regulations Sections 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5) and (6)) that exceeds the amount that such Member would be required to reimburse the Company pursuant to this Agreement or under Applicable Law. In the event either but not both of the Members would have such excess Capital Account deficits as a consequence of such an allocation of loss or deduction, the limitation set forth in this Section 8.4(h) shall be applied on a Member by Member basis so as to allocate the maximum permissible deduction or loss to each Member under Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d) of the Treasury Regulations. In the event any loss or deduction shall be specially allocated to a Member pursuant to either of the two preceding sentences, an equal amount of income of the Company shall be specially allocated to such Member prior to any allocation pursuant to Section 8.4(c).

(i) Any partner “nonrecourse deductions” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Sections 1.704-2(b)(1) and 1.704-2(b)(4) shall be allocated as provided in the applicable Treasury Regulations.

(j) The Capital Accounts of the Members may be adjusted at the Board of Director’s discretion in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f) to reflect the fair market value of Company property (i) whenever a Membership Interest in the Company is relinquished to the Company, (ii) whenever a new or existing Member acquires an interest in the Company in exchange for more than a de minimis Capital Contribution, (iii) upon any termination of the Company within the meaning of Section 708 of the Code, and (iv) when the Company is liquidated pursuant to Article XI, and shall be adjusted in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(e) in the case of a distribution of any property (other than cash) to a Member.

Section 8.5 Consistent Tax Treatment. Each Member agrees that without the prior written consent of the Company, approved by the Board of Directors, it shall not (i) treat on its own income Tax returns or any other Tax-related filings, any item of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit relating to its Membership Interests in a manner inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement or the treatment of such items by the Company as reflected on the Tax return or other information statements furnished to such Member pursuant to Section 5.4 hereof, or (ii) file any claim for a refund relating to any such item based on, or which would result in, such inconsistent treatment, or take any other inconsistent action (an “Inconsistent Position”). Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, a Member shall be allowed to take an Inconsistent Position, if (i) it obtains a written opinion from nationally recognized counsel approved by the Company that the treatment adopted by the Company is not consistent with law, (ii) notifies the Company in writing in advance and attaches a copy of such opinion to such notice, and (iii) discusses its position in good faith with the Company. Nothing in this Article VIII shall limit the ability of either Member to take any position in its individual capacity relating to any audit or other administrative proceedings of Company matters that is left to the determination of any individual Member under the Code or under any similar state or local provision.

ARTICLE IX

TRANSFERS OF MEMBERSHIP INTERESTS

Section 9.1 Restrictions Applicable to All Transfers by the Members.

(a) Each Member agrees with the other Member and the Company that such Member shall not Transfer to any Person (a “Transferee”) all or any portion of its Membership Interests except as hereinafter expressly permitted in this Article IX or as approved by the Members pursuant to Section 7.6 (each such permitted Transfer, a “Permitted Transfer”). Any purported Transfer of Membership Interests other than a Permitted Transfer shall be null and void.

[*****] Portions of this exhibit have been redacted pursuant to a confidential treatment request. An unredacted version of this exhibit has been filed separately with the Commission.

(b) No Member shall Transfer any of its Membership Interests at any time unless such action would not:

(i) constitute a violation of any Applicable Laws of any jurisdiction or a breach of the conditions to any exemption from registration of securities under any Applicable Law or a breach of any undertaking or agreement of such Member entered into pursuant to any Applicable Law or in connection with obtaining an exemption thereunder;

(ii) affect the Company’s existence or qualification as a limited liability company under the Act or any other Applicable Law that is or might be applicable to the Company;

(iii) in the opinion of nationally recognized U.S. tax counsel, render the Company a publicly traded partnership under Sections 7704 or 469 of the Code, or otherwise cause it to be an association taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income Tax purposes; or

(iv) cause the Company to be terminated under Section 708(b)(1)(B) of the Code (unless this restriction is waived by the other Member(s)).

(c) As a condition of Transfer, each Transferee of Membership Interests that is not already a Member shall execute, and deliver to each Member and the Company, a counterpart of this Agreement. Each such Transferee of Membership Interests shall thereafter be deemed to be a Member hereunder and shall have the benefit of, and be subject to, all of the rights, obligations and limitations with respect to such Transferred Membership Interests (including the restrictions on Transfers set forth in this Article IX) to the same extent as the transferring Member under this Agreement; provided, that in the event of a Transfer by a Member to an Affiliate (whether or not an Affiliate Transferee), such Member shall not be relieved of obligations incurred hereunder unless the Transfer has been approved by the Company and the other Member(s) who own Class A Membership Units.

(d) No Transfer of Membership Interests hereunder shall release the transferring Member from any liability or obligation it may have hereunder with respect to liabilities and obligations incurred prior to the date of such Transfer or with respect to Membership Interests that it continues to own after the date of such Transfer.

(e) Each certificate, if any, evidencing any Membership Interests owned by either Member on the date hereof, or hereafter acquired by either Member, shall contain the following restrictive legend:

THE SALE, ASSIGNMENT, TRANSFER OR OTHER DISPOSITION OF THE SECURITIES EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE IS RESTRICTED BY THE TERMS OF THE OPERATING AGREEMENT OF ENFISSION, LLC, A DELAWARE LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANY, DATED AS OF [______], COPIES OF WHICH ARE ON FILE WITH THE ISSUER OF THIS CERTIFICATE. NO SALE, ASSIGNMENT, TRANSFER OR OTHER DISPOSITION SHALL BE EFFECTIVE UNLESS AND UNTIL THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THE AFORESAID OPERATING AGREEMENT SHALL HAVE BEEN COMPLIED WITH IN FULL.

[*****] Portions of this exhibit have been redacted pursuant to a confidential treatment request. An unredacted version of this exhibit has been filed separately with the Commission.

THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE UNITED STATES SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, UNDER THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE OF THE UNITED STATES OR UNDER THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION; AND SUCH SECURITIES MAY NOT BE SOLD OR TRANSFERRED UNLESS (I) A REGISTRATION STATEMENT COVERING SUCH SECURITIES IS EFFECTIVE UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 OR (II) THE TRANSACTION IS EXEMPT FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 AND, IF THE COMPANY REQUESTS, AN OPINION SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY TO SUCH EFFECT HAS BEEN RENDERED BY COUNSEL.

In the event the requirement that all or any part of the restrictive legend above be placed upon a certificate has terminated, or in the event that the Board of Directors determines it is advisable to remove, replace or modify such restrictive legend (based on the advice of competent outside legal counsel), the Company shall provide each Member and any other Person that owns any such securities, at its request, without any expense (other than applicable transfer Taxes and similar governmental charges, if any), with new certificates, if any, for such securities of like tenor either (i) not bearing the legend with respect to which the restriction has ceased and terminated, and/or (ii) bearing such additional and/or modified restrictive legends as the Board of Directors determines advisable based on the above-mentioned legal advice.

Section 9.2 Permitted Transfers.

(a) At any time, a Member may Transfer its Membership Interests if the Transfer complies with the following terms and conditions:

(i) such Member shall have delivered a Transfer Notice in accordance with Section 9.3(a) (except in the case of a Transfer to an Affiliate Transferee pursuant to this Section 9.2);

(ii) the proposed Transferee is either (i) not on the list of Restricted Transferees in Exhibit D or (ii) the non-transferring Class A Member(s) have consented in writing to such Transfer and any additional conditions imposed by such non-transferring Members pursuant to Section 9.2(c) below are met;

[*****] Portions of this exhibit have been redacted pursuant to a confidential treatment request. An unredacted version of this exhibit has been filed separately with the Commission.

(iii) the Member delivering the Transfer Notice has complied with the right of first offer provisions in Section 9.3 and otherwise shall comply with Section 9.1;

(iv) such Transfer would not, in the reasonable view of the non-transferring Class A Member(s), create a regulatory challenge or restriction that has the potential to materially disrupt operation of the Company;

(v) such Member and its Transferee execute, acknowledge, and deliver to the Company such instruments of Transfer and assignment with respect to such Transfer as are in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company, including without limitation, the execution of this Agreement;

(vi) the Company has determined, at such Member’s expense, that the Transfer would not violate Section 9.1(b);

(vii) such Member provides the Company with the notification required by Code §6050K(c)(1); and

(viii) all costs and expenses incurred by the Company in connection with the Transfer of Membership Interests shall be paid by the transferring Member or by the Transferee.

(b) Notwithstanding anything in Section 9.2(a) to the contrary, a Member may Transfer all or any portion of its Membership Interests to an Affiliate Transferee of the Member at any time without being subject to the right of first offer provisions in Section 9.3, but subject to compliance with all other requirements of this Section 9.2.

(c) The list of Restricted Transferees in Exhibit D and referenced in Section 9.2(a)(ii) shall at all times be reasonable, updated by the Members on an annual basis, and include only those persons who are actual direct competitors of the Members in the nuclear fuel business. The non-transferring Member(s) may require reasonable restrictions around a transfer to a Restricted Transferee, including, but not limited to a grant of additional voting / control rights to the non-transferring Member and/or the creation of an information “firewall” to prevent disclosure of proprietary information of the Company or of the non-transferring Member to the Restricted Transferee. In determining the level of protections to be required for provision of consent, the non-transferring Member must reasonably evaluate the competitive risk and give appropriate weight to the timing of the transfer (development/innovation vs. commercialization phase), the degree of “directness” of the competition posed by the competitor/transferee, and the feasibility of mechanisms that can be put in place to effectively mitigate the competitive risk posed by such transfer. In all cases, the non-transferring Member shall have the ability to not consent to, and thus prohibit, a transfer to a Restricted Transferee only after it has in good faith fully considered reasonable restrictions to mitigate the competitive risk posed by the transfer to a Restricted Transferee.

[*****] Portions of this exhibit have been redacted pursuant to a confidential treatment request. An unredacted version of this exhibit has been filed separately with the Commission.

(d) In the event the conditions set forth in Section 9.2(a) above are not satisfied in connection with any Transfer subject thereto, the Transfer shall be null and void ab initio, the Company shall not recognize the attempted purchaser, assignee, or Transferee for any purpose whatsoever, and the Member attempting such Transfer shall have breached this Agreement, for which the Company and the other Members shall have all remedies available under Applicable Law. Each Member specifically acknowledges that a breach of this Article IX would cause the Company and the Member to suffer immediate and irreparable harm, which could not be remedied by the payment of money. In the event of a breach or threatened breach by a Member of the provisions of this Article IX, the Company or other Member shall be entitled to injunctive relief to prevent or end such breach. Nothing herein shall be construed to prevent the Company or other Member from pursuing any other remedies available to it for such breach or such threatened breach, including the recovery of damages, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses. A Transferee shall automatically be admitted as a Member of the Company with respect to the transferred Membership Interest upon consummation of the Transfer in compliance with this Article IX.

Section 9.3 Right of First Offer.

(a) Except in the case of a Transfer to an Affiliate Transferee pursuant to Section 9.2, prior to the Transfer of Membership Interests, the Member proposing to Transfer all or any portion of its Membership Interest (the “Offering Member”) must deliver a Transfer Notice to all of the other Member(s) at least [*****] but no more than [*****] prior to the proposed Transfer. The other Members, individually or in combinations of one or more Members (pro rata by Membership Interests in the applicable class unless otherwise agreed by such Members), shall have the option to purchase (or to designate a third party to purchase on their behalf) all of the Membership Interests proposed to be Transferred by the Offering Member for the cash purchase price set forth in the Transfer Notice and pursuant to the other terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement. The other Members shall have [*****] from receipt of the Transfer Notice in which to exercise their option to purchase (or to designate a third party to purchase) all of the Membership Interests pursuant to this Section 9.3(a) by providing written notice of exercise of the option to the Offering Member and to the Company.

(b) In the event that at the end of the [*****] period contemplated by Section 9.3(a), the other Members have not elected to purchase (or to designate a third party to purchase) all of the Membership Interests proposed to be Transferred, for the cash purchase price set forth in the Transfer Notice and pursuant to the other terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, then the Offering Member shall be free to consummate the transaction described in the Transfer Notice, provided that within [*****] after the end of the [*****] period contemplated by Section 9.3(a), a definitive agreement is executed for the sale of such Membership Interests, and the terms and conditions (including price) in such agreement are no more favorable to the purchaser than those set forth in the Transfer Notice.

[*****] Portions of this exhibit have been redacted pursuant to a confidential treatment request. An unredacted version of this exhibit has been filed separately with the Commission.

(c) Any Member that is a party to the transaction shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to close any purchase under Section 9.3 as promptly as possible after (i) the Member(s) exercising the option to purchase provides written notice of the exercise of its/their option under Section 9.3(a) (a “ROFO Purchase”), or (ii) the Offering Member executes a definitive agreement with a third party purchaser as contemplated by Section 9.3(b), as applicable. At the closing, the Offering Member shall deliver to the purchaser an executed assignment of the subject Membership Interest satisfactory in form to counsel for the Company. In the event of a ROFO Purchase, the purchaser shall deliver the purchase price in cash or immediately available funds and the Offering Member and the purchaser each shall execute and deliver such other documents as may reasonably be requested by the other. If the closing of any ROFO Purchase does not occur within [*****] of the expiration of the [*****] period contemplated by Section 9.3(a), then the right to close on the purchase shall lapse and the Offering Member may sell the Membership Interests proposed to be Transferred in accordance with Section 9.3(b) (on terms and conditions (including price) no more favorable to the purchaser than those set forth in the Transfer Notice). In the event a Member (or its designee, if applicable) fails to tender the required assignment documents or consideration, as applicable, at the closing, in addition to being entitled to complete the proposed transaction, the transferring Member shall have all rights and remedies against the other Member (and its designee, if applicable) available for breach of contract.

Section 9.4 Change of Control of a Member. If either Member should undergo a Change of Control after the Effective Date, then the other Member(s) may elect to transfer all or any portion of their Membership Interests in the Company without regard to the Right of First Offer requirements of Section 9.3. If a Member, due to a Change of Control, is brought under the control of a Restricted Transferee and/or a change of control is likely to create a legal or regulatory challenge or restriction that would materially disrupt operation of the Company, the non-Change of Control Member(s) may require reasonable protections that may include, but do not have to be limited to, a grant of additional voting / control rights to the non-Change of Control Member(s) and/or the creation of a firewall to prevent disclosure of proprietary information of the Company or the non-Change of Control Member to the Change of Control Member’s new owner.

(i) Equity or ownership interests issued in connection with the acquisition of another business entity or line of business of another business entity by the Company through merger, consolidation, purchase of all or substantially all of the assets, or other reorganization as a result of which the Company owns not less than 51% of the voting power of such entity; provided, that any dilution to the Membership Interests of the Members resulting from the issuance of such securities shall be borne by the Members, pro rata, in proportion to their Percentage Interests; or

(ii) Equity or ownership interests issued in connection with any recapitalization, reclassification or similar event by the Company; provided, that any dilution to the Membership Interests of the Members resulting from such recapitalization, reclassification or similar event shall be allocated among the Members, pro rata, in proportion to their Percentage Interests.

(c) Following the completion of the decision period for the Members to exercise their preemptive rights pursuant to this Section 10.1, the Company shall have the right, for a period of one hundred and eighty (180) Days, to sell any New Securities not purchased by the Members, on terms and conditions no more favorable to the purchaser than those specified in the Preemptive Notice, including with respect to the price per New Security.

(2) [*****], and

(3) [*****].

(ii) [*****].

(iii) Such Service Agreements shall contain audit provisions that are appropriate for the pricing models utilized and adequate to ensure compliance with applicable regulations. These audit provisions shall provide the Company with audit rights, through the Company’s outside auditors registered with the U.S. Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, to ensure the requirements of Section 10.2(b)(i) are being met throughout the terms of the Service Agreements. Audit results shall be limited to affirmation of compliance or non-compliance by the outside auditors.

(iv) Such Service Agreements also shall provide that Lightbridge’s outside independent auditors have the same access to and audit rights as are provided under 10.2(b)(ii), but only to the extent that (A) such books and records reasonably would contain information pertinent to the Company’s operations or contracts with a Member or its Affiliates, and (B) access to such information is reasonably required in order to comply with legal and regulatory requirements applicable to and identified by Lightbridge (e.g., U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission regulations and Public Company Accounting Oversight Board requirements).

Section 11.1 Corporate Opportunities. Neither the Company nor any Member shall have any expectation or interest in any business opportunity that is presented to any of the Members or any of their respective officers, directors or employees or designees to the Board, unless, in the case of any such person who is a Director or officer of the Company, such business opportunity is expressly offered to such Director or officer in his or her capacity as a Company Director or officer. Each of the Members and their Affiliates shall be expressly permitted to acquire and hold any debt securities or evidence of indebtedness issued by the Company or its Affiliates.

Section 11.2 Failure to Pursue Project Opportunities. The Members shall in good faith jointly pursue proposed Projects within the Domain. If, within six months from the time a proposed Project is presented to the Board of Directors in accordance with Section 7.2(k), an Initial Member—acting in good faith—decides not to pursue such proposed Project within the Domain, the proposed Project shall not be considered a corporate opportunity of the Company and the other Initial Member may pursue the Project without the non-pursuing Initial Member, and to the extent provided in the IP Annex and other contracts referenced therein shall have access to (for each such Project) Foreground and/or Background Information. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a proposed Project is to divert funding, as specified in the Annual Budget commitment and a Three-Year Budget forecast, from existing Project(s) being already pursued by the Company, then the other Initial Member shall not pursue the proposed Project at that time and the Board of Directors shall re-evaluate this opportunity on an annual basis.

Section 11.3 Non-Solicitation. From and after the date hereof through the date such Member no longer owns any Membership Interests, and other than expressly set forth herein or in any ancillary agreement hereto, neither Member or its Affiliates shall, directly or indirectly, solicit, induce, encourage or attempt to persuade any employee of the Company, the Members or their Affiliates (a) to leave their employment with the Company, the Members or their Affiliates in order to become an employee, consultant or independent contractor to or for any other Person or (b) to terminate or adversely modify such employee’s relationship with the Company, the Members or their Affiliates; provided, however, that this Section 11.3 shall not restrict an employer from publishing or posting open positions in the course of normal hiring practices that are not specifically sent to, or do not specifically target, employees of the Company, the Members or their Affiliates or from hiring on the basis of job applications received without violation of this provision.

Section 12.1 No Right of Withdrawal; No Interest.

(a) Except as otherwise provided herein, no Member shall have the right to withdraw from the Company or to demand or to receive the return of all or any part of its Capital Account. In the event a Member withdraws in violation of this Section 12.1(a), such Member hereby agrees that such withdrawal will constitute a breach of this Agreement and the Company, in addition to any other remedies otherwise available to the Company, may offset any damages due to such breach against any amounts otherwise distributable to such Member. Subject to the foregoing, upon withdrawal by any Member, such Person shall not be entitled to receive any monies or property for its Membership Interest and the withdrawn Member or the successor to the withdrawn Member shall be deemed to be an unadmitted assignee.

(b) Except as otherwise provided herein, no interest shall be paid to either Member in respect of its Capital Contribution or Capital Account balance. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, no Member shall be entitled or permitted to withdraw any Capital Contributions or any money or other property from the Company without the written consent of the Board of Directors which consent may be withheld for any reason or for no reason.

Section 12.2 Terminating Event.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, upon the occurrence of a Terminating Event with respect to a Member, the Member shall immediately notify the Company, and the Company, within thirty (30) days after the date of determination of the Fair Market Value, may elect to purchase (the “Repurchase Election Period”) such Member’s entire Membership Interest in the Company (the “Withdrawal Interest”) from such Member or such Member’s legal or personal representative(s) or successor(s) (as applicable) (individually and collectively, the “Withdrawn Member”) for a price equal to the Fair Market Value of the Withdrawal Interest (the “Redemption Price”). If the Company timely makes that election, the Company shall purchase from the Withdrawn Member, and the Withdrawn Member shall sell to the Company, the Withdrawal Interest at the Redemption Price and on the terms set forth in the next paragraph. If the Company does not elect to purchase the Withdrawal Interest at the Redemption Price and on the terms set forth in the next paragraph, then, unless the Board of Directors determines otherwise, the Withdrawn Member, effective as of the occurrence of the Terminating Event, shall be and shall only have the rights of an unadmitted assignee.

(b) The closing for any sale of a Withdrawal Interest of a Withdrawn Member, and purchase by the Company, shall take place at the Company’s principal office on the tenth Business Day following the end of the Repurchase Election Period. At the closing, (i) the Withdrawn Member shall assign and transfer to the Company all right, title, and interest in and to the Withdrawal Interest (free and clear of all liens and encumbrances) and shall execute and deliver to the Company such other and further assurances as the Board of Directors may reasonably require to transfer to and vest the Withdrawal Interest in the Company, and (ii) the Company shall pay the Redemption Price in cash.

Section 12.4 Winding Up.

(a) Upon dissolution pursuant to Section 12.3, the Board of Directors shall proceed as promptly as practicable to wind up the affairs of the Company and distribute the assets thereof or appoint one or more liquidating trustees to do so; provided, that the assets of the Company shall be liquidated in an orderly and businesslike manner so as not to obtain less than fair market value therefor. The appointment of any one or more liquidating trustees may be revoked, or a successor or additional liquidating trustee(s) may be appointed, by the Board of Directors.

Section 13.2 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the Members and the Company, and their respective successors and Transferees. This Agreement is personal to the Members and the Company, and no Member or the Company may assign or Transfer (except in connection with Permitted Transfers) the rights accruing hereunder nor (except as aforesaid or as permitted by this Agreement) may performance of any duties by either Member or the Company be delegated or assumed by any other Person without the prior written consent of the other Members and the Company.

Section 13.3 Parallel Vehicle. If the Company encounters legal, Tax, business, accounting, regulatory or other impediments to the making of a potential investment, or the Company determines that having the Members make a potential investment or hold an existing investment through an entity other than the Company would be more favorable from a Tax, legal, business, accounting, regulatory or other perspective, in either case as determined or ratified by the Board of Directors, the Company may require the Members to participate in the potential or existing investment, as the case may be, through one or more other entities organized by or on behalf of the Company or the Members and having economic terms and conditions substantially identical (on a single investment basis, if applicable), to the extent practicable, to those of the Company (the “Parallel Vehicle”). The agreements regarding organization, management and governance with respect to the Parallel Vehicle and the responsibilities of the Members with respect thereto shall be substantially equivalent to those of the Company, with appropriate changes to reflect its position as a parallel vehicle of the Company.

Section 13.4 Dispute Resolution.

(a) In the event of a deadlock vote of the Board of Directors on a matter material to the continued existence or purpose of the Company, a failure of the Members to agree on a matter requiring Member approval under Section 7.6 or requiring approval by the Board of Directors under Section 7.2(k) (each a “Deadlock”), or in connection with any dispute between the Members the interpretation or alleged breach of this Agreement, the Members will use reasonable efforts to resolve the dispute between working-level teams within [*****]. If the issue has not been resolved within such [*****], the Members’ CEOs will meet to discuss and use their reasonable efforts to resolve the dispute.

(b) If the Members remain unable to resolve the dispute within [*****] of the initial meeting of the Member CEOs, then, either Member may file a claim in the Delaware Court of Chancery or, if such court lacks subject matter jurisdiction or an effective means of resolving the dispute due to the dispute being one solely involving a matter of “business judgment,” submit the dispute to binding arbitration under the rules of the American Arbitration Association (the “Rules”) by three expert arbitrators appointed in accordance with the following procedures: Promptly following receipt of any request for arbitration by a Member, the Members shall meet and discuss in good faith and agree on an expert panel to resolve the issue, which expert panel shall consist of three (3) members, shall be neutral and independent of all Members and any parties owning, owned by or under common control with the Members, shall have significant experience and expertise in the substantive area in question, and shall have experience in mediating or arbitrating issues relating to international joint venture agreements. Within [*****] after such expert panel is selected, each Member will deliver to both the expert panel and the other Members a detailed written proposal setting forth its proposed terms for the resolution of the matters at issue (the “Proposed Terms” of the Member) and a memorandum (the “Support Memorandum”) in support thereof, not exceeding ten (10) pages in length (excluding any supporting data). The Members will also provide the expert panel a copy of this Agreement, as it may be amended at such time. Within [*****] after receipt of the other Members’ Proposed Terms and Support Memoranda, each Member may submit to the expert panel (with a copy to the other Members) a response to the other Members’ Support Memoranda, such response not exceeding ten (10) pages in length. No Member may have any other communications (either written or oral) with the expert panel; provided, that the expert panel may convene a hearing if the expert panel so chooses to ask questions of the Members and hear oral argument and discussion regarding each Member’s Proposed Terms. Within [*****] after the date that the expert panel is required to receive the Support Memoranda, the expert panel will provide a decision that is supported by the Proposed Terms and that the expert panel believes is most consistent with the intention and underlying and agreed principles set forth in this Agreement. The decision of the expert panel shall be final, binding, and not appealable except where the arbitral panel has failed to follow the Rules.

[*****] Portions of this exhibit have been redacted pursuant to a confidential treatment request. An unredacted version of this exhibit has been filed separately with the Commission.

The place of the arbitration shall be Wilmington, Delaware, United States of America, and the law applied shall be that of the State of Delaware. The language of the arbitration for all purposes shall be English. Any decision or award of the arbitral tribunal shall be final and binding upon the Members. The Members waive to the extent permitted by Applicable Law any rights to appeal or to review of such award by any court or tribunal. The Members agree that the arbitral award may be enforced against the parties to the arbitration proceeding or their assets wherever they may be found and that a judgment upon the arbitral award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof.

(c) If the dispute involves an exigent issue, which, in the reasonable opinion of either Member requires expedited resolution, the Members may immediately refer such matter to the Members’ CEOs for resolution. If the Members’ CEOs remain unable to resolve the dispute within [*****] of their initial meeting, either Member may pursue either the Delaware Court of Chancery or arbitration processes set forth in Section 13.4.

Section 13.5 Governing Law. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES.

Section 13.6 Waiver of Sovereign Immunity. In connection with any action or proceeding concerning the enforcement of this Agreement, or any determination of the Members’ rights under this Agreement, Framatome hereby knowingly and expressly waives all existing and future rights of sovereign immunity, and all other similar immunities, as a defense. This waiver is irrevocable and applies to the jurisdiction of any court, legal process, suit, judgment, attachment in aid of execution of a judgment, attachment prior to judgment, set-off or any other legal process with respect to the enforcement of this Agreement or determination of the Members’ rights under this Agreement.

Section 13.7 Export Control. The Members shall fully comply with all applicable U.S., French, European, and any other applicable export control laws and economic sanctions programs, as the same may be amended from time to time, in the performance of this Agreement. Applicable export control or economic sanctions programs may include, but are not limited to, (i) the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission’s regulations in 10 C.F.R. Part 110 and any export license issued thereunder; (ii) the Department of Commerce’s Export Administration Regulations contained in 15 C.F.R. Part 730 et seq. and any licenses or authorizations issued thereunder; (iii) the U.S. Department of Energy’s regulations contained in 10 C.F.R. Part 810; (iv) the U.S. Department of State’s International Traffic in Arms Regulations; (v) any other applicable U.S. trade control laws, including economic sanctions programs that are or may be maintained by the U.S. Department of Treasury; or (vi) the export control laws and economic sanctions programs of any other applicable non-U.S. governmental authority, including the French Government and/or European regulations (collectively, “Trade Control Laws”). Without limiting the foregoing, the Members shall not export, re-export, transfer, re-transfer, trans-ship, divert, disclose, or use any items, or Information, supplied under this Agreement or developed therefrom in any manner inconsistent with the Trade Control Laws. The Members undertake to keep themselves fully informed of, and to comply with, the Trade Control Laws. In particular, Framatome Inc. understands that under the U.S. Department of Energy’s nuclear export control laws set forth in 10 C.F.R. Part 810, the transfer of U.S. export controlled nuclear technology, including certain Information transferred under this Agreement or developed therefrom, to countries that are not “Generally Authorized Destinations” or to foreign persons, including Framatome S.A.S.’s Representatives, who are not covered under the U.S. Department of Energy’s list of “Generally Authorized Destinations,” even if located in the United States, France, or Germany, requires Specific Authorization from the U.S. Department of Energy prior to export, and that exports made under both a Specific and General Authorization trigger reporting obligations to the U.S. Department of Energy. Framatome S.A.S. will not re-transfer to any Third Party (excluding its Representatives) the U.S. nuclear export controlled technology in any event without a written agreement with the recipient ensuring that the recipient will comply in all manners with the U.S. Department of Energy’s 10 C.F.R. Part 810 regulations. The Members agree to utilize appropriate internal procedures to prevent the inadvertent export or re-export of nuclear export controlled technology controlled under U.S., European, or French law, without the appropriate authorizations and reporting under the Trade Control Laws. Each Member shall provide to the other an Importer Statement on End Use (End User certificate) including a statement of non re-export to third countries thirty (30) days after signing the Agreement for obtaining an export license. The Members shall agree on the content of End User certificate. The Members further agree that notwithstanding any other provision hereof, any Foreground Information, equipment developed, and Background Information will only be used for civil end-uses, and license rights granted hereunder shall not extend to any military use. They will not be used for development of nuclear weapons and other nuclear explosive devices or to fulfill any military purpose.

AREVA NP and Lightbridge hereinafter are referred to individually as a “Joint Owner” and collectively as the “Joint Owners.” Each Joint Owner agrees to this IP Annex on behalf of itself and LTBR also agrees to this IP annex on behalf of its Affiliates. The Joint Owners have entered into a Co-ownership Agreement, dated ____ (the “Co-ownership Agreement”) and an R&D Services Agreement, dated ____ (the “R&D Services Agreement for Project 1”).

AREVA NP, Lightbridge, and Areva Inc. hereinafter are referred to individually as an “IP Annex Party” and collectively as the “IP Annex Parties.”

The Project(s) will include several definitive agreements (including R&D Services Agreements, the Co-ownership Agreement, and licenses to use Intellectual Property Rights).

PRESS RELEASE

Lightbridge and AREVA NP Sign Agreements to Immediately Advance Fuel Development

CHARLOTTE, N.C., November 15, 2017 – Lightbridge Corporation (NASDAQ: LTBR) and AREVA NP signed three binding agreements that allow the companies to immediately advance development of Lightbridge’s innovative metallic fuel technology and protect all associated intellectual property while they finalize their joint venture. Lightbridge is a U.S. nuclear fuel development company and AREVA NP is a leader in servicing and fueling today’s reactor fleet and advancing the future of nuclear energy.

The three agreements include a Research and Development Services Agreement, a Co-Ownership Agreement and an Intellectual Property Annex. These agreements are an integral part of the contemplated joint venture and document the final agreement on intellectual property rights. The joint venture is expected to launch in the first quarter of 2018.

Lightbridge’s innovative fuel technology is designed to significantly improve the economics and safety of existing and new nuclear power plants. The three agreements govern joint research and development activities, and ownership of intellectual property, including a grant of royalty-based rights of use to existing intellectual property and co-ownership (on a 50-50 basis) of new intellectual property resulting from future joint fuel development activities.

Seth Grae, president and CEO of Lightbridge, said: “With each passing day, the call for innovative solutions to improve nuclear energy’s economics and competitiveness only becomes louder. The agreements we announced today enable us to immediately advance development of Lightbridge’s innovative metallic fuel and represent the first concrete step toward monetization of our intellectual property. Lightbridge’s innovative fuel technology is designed to make existing reactors significantly more competitive with other sources of energy, which is needed now more than ever as we witness well-run U.S. nuclear plants close early and new construction projects canceled.”
