The informa4on contained herein contains “forward-‐looking statements” within the meaning of the United States Private Securi4es Li4ga4on Reform Act of 1995 and “forward-‐looking informa4on” within the meaning of applicable Canadian securi4es legisla4on. “Forward-‐looking informa1on” includes, but is not limited to, statements with respect to the ac1vi1es, events or developments that the Company expects or an1cipates will or may occur in the future, including, without limita1on, planned explora1on ac1vi1es and comple1on of the acquisi1on of the Property. Generally, but not always, forward-‐looking informa1on and statements can be iden1fied by the use of words such as “plans”, “expects”, “is expected”, “budget”, “scheduled”, “es1mates”, “forecasts”, “intends”, “an1cipates”, or “believes” or the nega1ve connota1on thereof or varia1ons of such words and phrases or state that certain ac1ons, events or results “may”, “could”, “would”, “might” or “will be taken”, “occur” or “be achieved” or the nega1ve connota1on thereof. Such forward-‐looking informa1on and statements are based on numerous assump1ons, including among others, that the results of planned explora1on ac1vi1es are as an1cipated, the price of uranium, the an1cipated cost of planned explora1on ac1vi1es, that general business and economic condi1ons will not change in a material adverse manner, that financing will be available if and when needed and on reasonable terms, and that third party contractors, equipment and supplies and governmental and other approvals required to conduct the Company’s planned explora1on ac1vi1es will be available on reasonable terms and in a 1mely manner.

Forward-‐looking informa1on and statements also involve known and unknown risks and uncertain1es and other factors, which may cause actual events or results in future periods to differ materially from any projec1ons of future events or results expressed or implied by such forward-‐looking informa1on or statements, including, among others: nega1ve opera1ng cash flow and dependence on third party financing, uncertainty of addi1onal financing, no known mineral reserves or resources, the limited opera1ng history of the Company, the influence of a large shareholder, alterna1ve sources of energy and uranium prices, aboriginal 1tle and consulta1on issues, reliance on key management and other personnel, actual results of explora1on ac1vi1es being different than an1cipated, changes in explora1on programs based upon results, availability of third party contractors, availability of equipment and supplies, failure of equipment to operate as an1cipated; accidents, effects of weather and other natural phenomena and other risks associated with the mineral explora1on industry, environmental risks, changes in laws and regula1ons, community rela1ons and delays in obtaining governmental or other approvals. Although the Company has aMempted to iden1fy important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-‐looking informa1on or implied by forward-‐looking informa1on, there may be other factors that cause results not to be as an1cipated, es1mated or intended. There can be no assurance that forward-‐looking informa1on and statements will prove to be accurate, as actual results and future events could differ materially from those an1cipated, es1mated or intended.

Team
Athabasca Basin
Strong technical focus and background – all full-‐4me employees are geologists, with a track record of uranium explora4on success
Timing Take advantage of asset availability and low acquisi4on costs ahead of an expected improving uranium price environment
Leveraging Strengths Use our capabili4es in capital markets and explora4on to posi4on the company as the partner and investment vehicle of choice
Size of the Prize, Cost of the Test, Chance of Success Uranium explora4on in the Athabasca Basin checks all three boxes.
Start with the area most prospec4ve for quality/high grade/high margin mines and which is also the best mining jurisdic4on on the planet

Our Approach
! IsoEnergy founded and backed by the team behind NexGen Energy.
! NexGen currently holds the largest undeveloped uranium deposit in the Athabasca Basin with the Arrow Deposit (Indicated Mineral Resource of 256.6 M lbs of U3O8 contained within 2.89 M tonnes grading 4.03% U3O8, and an Inferred Mineral Resource of 91.7 M lbs of U3O8 contained within 4.84 M tonnes grading 0.86% U3O8)*.
! NexGen Energy is a suppor4ve shareholder with C$90 million cash on hand.
! NexGen share price has increased 740% in past 4 years.
Explora5on and discovery of Uranium in the Athabasca Basin has the poten5al to deliver strong shareholder returns!

Uranium Market Divergence
Simple Strategy in the Home of High-‐Grade Uranium 1. Punng our foot on as much of the eastern Athabasca as possible.
2. Drill around mineralized intercepts that were found but never adequately followed up post 2011.
3. Drill for basement hosted mineraliza4on in an area that is highly prospec4ve but has never been effec4vely explored for this style of deposit – i.e. most of the eastern Athabasca Basin.
High quality porlolio: ! Larocque East and Geiger, newly acquired from Cameco with a new discovery
of high grade uranium at the Hurricane Zone
! Thorburn Lake 7km east of the Cigar Lake Mine. Several drill holes have hit uranium mineraliza4on. Numerous target areas remain.
! Radio located 2km east of and along strike of the Roughrider deposit, which Rio Tinto acquired for $587M in February 2012.
! North Thorburn located 12km northeast of and along strike of the Cigar Lake mine, hosts a number of high priority targets.

Supply Side
IsoEnergy.ca 30 TSXV: ISO OTCQX: ISENF
Curtailment and mine closures have started to happen
! Major uranium miners have suspended produc4on including: ! Cameco – Shutdown of US assets, Rabbit Lake and now McArthur River/Key Lake ! Kazatomprom – the world’s largest U producer cut produc4on by 10% in 2017 and 20% un4l 2021 ! Paladin – Langer Heinrich to go on care and maintenance ! ERA – Released mine closure plan for Ranger with produc4on from processing plant to cease in 2020
! Much of world’s produc4on is at risk in current price environment
! Kazatomprom IPO in November 2018 ! Rio Tinto/ERA produc4on declining ! All producers coming off long term contracts ! Closure of several Africa opera4ons owned by other companies is likely in the near term
! By our es4mates 30% of supply is now coming out of the market ! These produc4on cuts are not likely to return to the market un4l the spot prices reach ~$70 or long-‐term contracts reach $60/lb ! 30% of u4lity demand is uncovered by supply contracts by 2020 ! U4li4es must pay more to secure supply going forward

Major Disrup5ons
Cameco and Kazatomprom con5nue produc5on curtailments ! Cameco’s McArthur River/Key Lake mine to remain suspended un4l
higher spot and long-‐term prices are seen. Combined with the closure of Rabbit Lake and their U.S. opera4ons this represents >20 Mlbs U3O8 per year (13% of global mined produc4on)
! Kazatomprom – 20% reduced produc4on remains in effect
Spot Market ! Cameco recently stated it is s4ll to buy 10Mlbs of U3O8 in the spot
market in 2019 to meet deliveries
! New investment vehicle “Yellow Cake Fund” will use its US$200mil IPO proceeds to purchase 8 Mlbs U3O8 from Kazatomprom with the op4on to purchase an addi4onal $100mil each year for 9 years, and another 900,000 lbs from the spot market in 2018
! Uranium Trading Corp to sequester another 2 Mlbs U3O8 from the spot market
! Financial players emerging as source of buying as happened in 2005/6/7
