The Plan of Arrangement was approved as a special resolution by the shareholders of UPC at a special meeting of UPC's shareholders held on July 23, 2009 and was approved by the British Columbia Supreme Court pursuant to a final order issued on July 28, 2009. The Plan of Arrangement was also approved by the TSX Venture Exchange and was approved unanimously by the board of directors of both Titan and UPC.
"The closing of the transaction marks a significant milestone for Titan Uranium," stated Brian Reilly, President and CEO. "I would like to welcome the new officers and directors of the company and thank the out-going officers and directors for their contributions. Titan is well-positioned for future growth in the uranium sector."
Under the Plan of Arrangement, each UPC common share was exchanged for 0.5393 common shares of Titan. This resulted in the issuance of 52,980,918 common shares of Titan. There are now 105,962,101 common shares of Titan that are issued and outstanding. Titan shareholders, as they existed immediately prior to such share exchange, and former UPC shareholders each own approximately 50% of the issued and outstanding shares of Titan.
As a result of the Plan of Arrangement, UPC is now a wholly-owned subsidiary of Titan.

Titan Uranium Inc.
Titan is driven by advancing exploration projects to discovery in the proven Athabasca and prospective Thelon basins located in Saskatchewan and Nunavut, respectively. Titan has gained market recognition for its ability to attract strategic partners to participate in exploration on its properties by virtue of its 1.6 million acre land position and its technical expertise. The option agreement participants of Titan include: Japan Oil, Gas and Metals National Corporation (JOGMEC), Vale Exploration Canada Inc. (VEC), and Mega Uranium Ltd. These optionees are expected to contribute $4.7 million in exploration programs managed by Titan in 2009.
This business combination with UPC adds a number of highly prospective properties, mainly in the United States, to Titan's portfolio. Prime among these is a 50% interest in the Sheep Mountain deposit which has an NI 43-101 compliant Inferred Resource (on a 100% basis) of:
4,560,000 tons, average grade of 0.17% eU3O8 (15.6 million lbs contained U3O8)
This resource estimate was reported in a technical report on the Sheep Mountain uranium project, prepared for UPC by Scott Wilson Roscoe Postle Associates Inc. and authored by C. Stewart Wallis, P. Geo. dated October 10, 2006. Additional information including the estimation method and cut-off grade may be found in the report which was filed on SEDAR on October 12, 2006. The Sheep Mountain deposit has a current Mine Permit issued by the Wyoming Department of Environmental Quality. Several minor amendments to this permit will be required to reopen the mine.
