Premier American Uranium Completes Acquisition of American Future Fuel

Premier American Uranium Inc. (“PUR” or “Premier American Uranium”) (TSXV: PUR, OTCQB: PAUIF)

and

American Future Fuel Corporation

(“AMPS” or “American Future Fuel”

) 

(CSE: AMPS, OTCQB: AFFCF, FWB: K14, WKN: A3DQFB)

are pleased to announce the completion of the previously announced arrangement (the “

Arrangement

”) whereby Premier American Uranium has acquired all of the issued and outstanding common shares of American Future Fuel (the “

AMPS Shares

”).

The Arrangement results in PUR acquiring 100% of the AMPS Shares and AMPS becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of PUR. Pursuant to the Arrangement, American Future Fuel shareholders (the “AMPS Shareholders”) received 0.170 of a common share of PUR (each whole share, a “PUR Share”) for each AMPS Share held. In aggregate, PUR issued 15,540,676 PUR Shares under the Arrangement.

In addition, each of the escrow release conditions in relation to PUR’s previously announced marketed private placement offering (the “Offering”) of 2,353,981 subscription receipts (the “Subscription Receipts”) for aggregate gross proceeds of $5,767,253 have been met. As a result, each outstanding Subscription Receipt has been converted into one unit of PUR (a “PUR Unit”) and the net proceeds from the Offering have been released from escrow. Each PUR Unit is comprised of one PUR Share and one-half of one common share purchase warrant of PUR (each whole warrant, a “Warrant”). Each whole Warrant entitles the holder to purchase a PUR Share at a price of C$3.50 until May 7, 2026. The Offering was led by cornerstone investors including Sachem Cove Partners LLC, IsoEnergy Ltd. and Mega Uranium Ltd. For additional information on the Offering, please refer to the news release of PUR dated May 7, 2024.

Colin Healey, CEO of PUR commented, “Completing the Arrangement with AMPS marks a pivotal step in executing our strategic vision to consolidate high-quality assets in the premier uranium districts of the US. We now have a strong foothold in three prominent districts known for their significant uranium endowment and potential: the Grants Mineral Belt in New Mexico, the Great Divide Basin in Wyoming and the Uravan Mineral Belt in Colorado. This year, we intend to launch two fully funded drill programs in two of these districts at our Cebolleta, NM, and Cyclone, WY, Projects and look forward to continuing to work to elevate our portfolio through further consolidation. We would like to extend our gratitude to our cornerstone investors for their continued support and welcome our new shareholders in this next phase of our growth.”

The AMPS Shares are expected to be delisted from the Canadian Securities Exchange at market close on June 27, 2024. PUR will cause AMPS to apply to the relevant Canadian securities regulatory authorities to cease to be a reporting issuer under applicable Canadian securities laws.
