Forward-Looking StatementsFORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION AND STATEMENTS:Certain statements and other information contained in this presentation may constitute “forward-looking information” within the meaning of applicable Canadian securitieslegislation or constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of applicable United States securities legislation. Such information and statements are based onUEX's current expectations, estimates, forecasts and projections. These forward-looking statements include statements regarding UEX‘s outlook for our future operations,plans and timing for exploration activities, and other expectations, intentions and plans that are not historical fact. Statements concerning mineral resource estimates mayalso constitute forward-looking statements to the extent they estimate mineralization that will be encountered if the property is developed. Such forward-looking statementsare based on certain factors and assumptions and are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from future resultsexpressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from UEX's expectations include uncertaintiesrelating to interpretation of drill results and geology, additional drilling results, continuity and grade of deposits, participation in joint ventures, reliance on other companies asoperators, public acceptance of uranium as an energy source, fluctuations in uranium prices and currency exchange rates, changes in environmental and other laws affectinguranium exploration and mining, and other risks and uncertainties disclosed in UEX's Annual Information Form and other filings with the applicable securities commissions inCanada. Many of these factors are beyond the control of UEX. Consequently, all forward-looking statements made herein are qualified by this cautionary statement and therecan be no assurance that actual results or developments anticipated by UEX will be realized. For the reasons set forth above, investors should not place undue reliance on suchforward-looking statements. Except as required by applicable law, UEX disclaims any intention or obligation to update or revise forward-looking information, whether as a resultof new information, future events or otherwise.

NOTICE TO U.S. PERSONS:The information in this presentation has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of Canadian securities laws, which differ from the requirements of United Statessecurities laws. Information, including scientific or technical information, has been prepared in accordance with National Instrument 43-101 - Standards of Disclosure forMineral Projects (“N.I. 43-101”). N.I. 43-101 is a rule developed by the Canadian Securities Administrators that establishes standards for all public disclosure an issuer makesof scientific and technical information concerning mineral projects. Canadian standards, including N.I. 43-101, differ significantly from the requirements of the SEC. Forexample, the terms “indicated mineral resources” and “inferred mineral resources” are used in this publication to comply with the reporting standards in Canada. While thoseterms are recognized and required by Canadian regulations, the SEC does not recognize them. Under United States standards, mineralization may not be classified as a“reserve” unless the determination has been made that the mineralization could be economically and legally produced or extracted at the time the reserve determination ismade. Readers should understand that “indicated mineral resources” and “inferred mineral resources” have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence and as to theireconomic and legal feasibility. Readers are cautioned not to assume that any part or all of the mineral deposits in these categories will ever be converted into mineral reserves.In accordance with Canadian rules, estimates of “inferred mineral resources” cannot form the basis of feasibility or other economic studies. In addition, the definitions of provenand probable mineral reserves used in N.I. 43-101 differ from the definitions in the SEC Industry Guide 7. Disclosure of “contained pounds” is permitted disclosure underCanadian regulations; however, the SEC normally only permits issuers to report mineralization that does not constitute reserves as in place tonnage and grade withoutreference to unit measures. Accordingly, information contained in this publication describing the Company's mineral properties may not be comparable to similar informationmade public by U.S. companies subject to the reporting and disclosure requirements under the United States federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder.

QUALIFIED PERSON:Technical information in this presentation has been reviewed and approved by Roger Lemaitre, P.Eng., P.Geo., UEX’s President and CEO, who is a Qualified Person as defined byN.I. 43-101.

Need for Uranium

- Nuclear Power = 17% of current global electricity generation.- A minimum of 20% growth in total operating reactors by 2030 is expected.- Currently: 447 reactors are operable, 59 reactors under construction (20 in

China, 5 in India) and 9 new reactors have come online in 2016 alone.

- Population and industrialization in developing countries are growing.- World electricity demand is expected to double in the next 20 years.- There is a need for reliable, green, zero emission energy.

- There is a fundamental shortfall in uranium looming.- Uranium is the only commodity in the world where mine supply has not

met demand in over 30 years.

Resources growth

- To move forward, we need to confirm and upgrade the existing resource to NI 43-101 standards, expand the size of the known deposits and make additional discoveries along the known mineralized trend.

Exploration- Mid-stage

- To move forward, we must find more mineralized intercepts and deposit indicators, and have successful follow-up drilling programs to define new deposits that could lead to new NI 43-101 resource estimates.

Exploration- Greenfields

- To move forward, we must either identify deposit indicators or find mineralization, which would justify additional drilling and/or surveys.

Hidden Bay PEA- February 2011 NI 43-101 Preliminary Assessment Technical Report on the Horseshoe and Raven Deposits Hidden Bay

Project (“PEA”) prepared by SRK Consulting (Canada) Inc. recommended the project be advanced to a preliminary feasibilitylevel including West Bear.These results are included in a technical report on the Hidden Bay property with an effective date of February 15, 2011 available online under UEX’s profile at www.sedar.com.

- Base Case economics and cut-off grades calculated at $60 (US) per lb of U3O8.

- 16.6 million lbs (est.) of U3O8 could be extracted over a seven-year mine life.

(1) Projects in the mining sector have experienced rising costs, including rising capital and operating costs, during the past few years. The price of uranium has declined since the date of the PEA which could negatively impact the results of the PEA. Projects in the mining sector have also experienced significant fluctuations of costs, which could impact EBIT, NPV and IRR which have been calculated based upon historical costs. Accordingly, readers should bear these factors in mind when reading the PEA and should not place undue reliance on the PEA.

- The PEA is preliminary in nature, includes inferred mineral resources that are considered too speculative geologically to have the economic considerations applied to them that would enable them to be categorized as mineral reserves, and there is no certainty that the preliminary economic assessment will be realized. Mineral resources that are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability.

Hidden Bay Strengths

- Ongoing exploration for new uranium deposits based on targets identified in our historical database and core review program.

- Long-lead project studies are ongoing and are required to advance Horseshoe, Raven and West Bear deposits to Prefeasibility when commodity prices signal a need for additional supply.

- Potential for the Horseshoe open pit to become a suitable tailings facility for a nearby mill.

- Significant resources near existing milling infrastructure operated by our largest shareholder (Cameco) and our joint venture partner (AREVA) at Shea Creek.

- Horseshoe and Raven deposits proximity to Cameco’s Rabbit Lake mill (approximately 4 km) and AREVA’s McClean Lake mill (approximately 22 km) may allow for toll milling.

Many known mineralized camps in the Athabasca Basin exhibit a recognizable trend plunging into the basement.

We believe the Christie Lake deposits represent the basement tail of a mineralized system that includes the McArthur River Mine.

Christie Lake Highlights- LOI signed with JCU (Canada) Exploration (JCU) to

earn up to 70% interest in the Christie Lake Project, joint venture agreement signed.

- Located 9 km along strike from the McArthur River Mine, the world’s largest uranium producer.

- The McArthur River Mine’s host structure, the P2 Fault, continues onto the Christie Lake Property, and its successor fault hosts two deposits within the project.

POUNDS- The Paul Bay and Ken Pen Zones have historical

resources of 20.87 million pounds U3O8 at an average grade of 3.22% U3O8*BASEMENT DEPOSIT POTENTIAL

- The Paul Bay and Ken Pen Zones are open for expansion at depth- Drilling has not tested the basement environment along the 1.5 km mineralized trend for new deposits

* This is a historic resource estimation which does not use resource classifications consistent with NI 43-101. The historical resource estimate was presented in an internal report titled Christie Lake Project, GeologicalResource Estimate completed by PNC Tono Geoscience Center, Resource Analysis Group, dated September 12, 1997. The historical resource was calculated using a 3-D block model using block sizes of 2 m by 2 m by 2 m,and block grades interpolated using the inverse distance squared method over a circular search radius of 25 m and 1 m height. Specific gravities for each deposit were averaged from specific gravity measures of individualsamples collected for assay. UEX plans to complete additional infill drilling on the deposits during the option earn-in period to upgrade these historic resources to indicated and inferred. A qualified person has not donesufficient work to classify the historic estimate as current mineral resources or mineral reserves. UEX is not treating the historic estimate as current mineral reserves or mineral resources.

Christie Lake Potential- The unconformity depth of the area is about 420 m (˜120 m

less than at McArthur River).

- There are many areas for further exploration and potential deposit expansion.

- The Paul Bay and Ken Pen Zones remain open for expansion in the down-dip direction and along cross-fault directions.

- None of the previously drilled holes test for basement mineralization outside the Paul Bay and Ken Pen Zones.

- Only a handful of existing holes constrain potential mineralization down-dip along the 1.5 km trend.

- The basement setting of the Paul Bay Deposit has not been tested by drilling along the 1.5 km mineralized trend.

- We have identified areas 1 – 7 for upcoming exploration work in order of priority.

- We believe that in 1 year we will convert and upgrade the historical resource.
