3 Uranium Market (Demand) A Story of Stable Demand Growth and Uncertain Supply

Nuclear Electricity Growth

• Nuclear energy fuels 11% of the global electricity needs • 930 GW needed by 2050 to support existing global decarbonisation mandates • Equates to a 2.3 times increase in nuclear energy demand in just 35 years

Uranium Demand

• Average demand growth estimated at ~4% per year to 2024 Source: International Energy Agency (2015), World Nuclear Association (2015)

4 Uranium Market (Demand) Investment and Reactor Builds

• Currently 437 nuclear reactors in operation globally • As of April 2015, 65 nuclear reactors are under construction

• China: 26 currently, 23 under construction, 187 in planning/proposal phase • China Nuclear Power Corp. “looking to invest in Canada in the near future” (Dec. 2014)

• Another 496 reactors are in the planning/proposal phase 1.) Graph: International Energy Agency (2015) 2.) World Nuclear Association (2015)

5 Uranium Market (Supply) Lack of Economic Deposits

• In 2014 world uranium

consumption was 155Mlbs while mine supply accounted for 147Mlbs

• +20Mlbs from HEU agreement (now over)

• Estimated supply gap of

nearly 100Mlbs per year by 2030

• 11 of top 15 uranium

mines are in unstable jurisdictions (Russia, Kazakhstan, Niger)

End of HEU agreement in 2013 removed the equivalent of McArthur River’s annual production from supply

1.) World Nuclear Association (2015) 2.) World Nuclear Association estimate of 97,450tU demand and 53,000 tU supply in 2030

6 The Athabasca Basin The Source of Future Supply

1.) World Nuclear Association (2015) 2.) Cameco Corp. 3.) Based on US$45/lb U & US$1,300/oz Au

Remember: 1.00% U3O8 = 23.50 g/t gold!

• Global average

resource grades ~0.10% U3O8

• Athabasca Basin mines produce at over 100X global average resource grade

• McArthur River produced 19Mlbs at average grade of 14.87% U3O8 in 2014

7 Project Overview Focus: High-tonnage, high-grade, technically superior assets in shallow sections of the Athabasca Basin

Portfolio Characteristics

• Straddles the edge and inside of the Athabasca Basin

• Enables NexGen to find basement-hosted, unconformity-hosted and sandstone-

hosted mineralization

• Hosts the land-based Arrow discovery

8 Arrow Discovery Rook I Project Location & Conductor Corridors

• Most dominant land position in the Southwest Athabasca Basin

• Arrow discovered Feb 2014 with 1st drill hole and drilling at +90% hit rate

• Land-based discovery

located straddling and inside the Athabasca Basin boundary

• Basement-hosted high-grade mineralization that grows all directions and at depth

Rook I hosts all the known uranium bearing conductor corridors in the region

9 Successful Drilling at Arrow +90% of Drill Holes Intersected High-grade Uranium Mineralization

NexGen’s Drilling Methodology:

1. Wide step-outs 2. Angled Holes: 90% of

holes drilled are angled 3. Efficient capital

allocation: 8:1 $ in the ground to $ to G&A

4. Incredible hit rate: +90% of holes hit mineralization

Results: Current Area of Mineralization:

• Length x width 645 m x 215 m

• Depth 100 m to 920 m

10 Arrow: A2 & A3 Shears Plan view of Arrow

11 A2: Continues to Expand Recently tripled strike length with aggressive step outs

open in every

direction

• NE extent of Arrow

AR-15-40b (11.5m

at 0.99% U3O8)

A2 Dimensions:

• 300m strike length

• 340m vertical extent

• 11-48.3m true width

A3 Dimensions:

Athabasca Basin Setting

15 The Eagle Point Analogy Eagle Point is an underground mine operated by Cameco

- Eagle Point current mineral reserves: 15.2Mlbs at 0.61% U3O8. 2014 annual production of 4.2Mlbs

- Underground mine using longhole stoping in the competent basement rock

- Eagle Point deposits are located on the eastern edge of the Athabasca Basin, and are part of the Rabbit Lake Uranium district which also includes the Rabbit Lake and Collins Bay deposits.

- Rabbit Lake District produced +198Mlbs of uranium concentrates since production began in 1975

Eastern Athabasca Basin Portfolio

High Quality Portfolio:

1. Radio: located directly adjacent to and long strike of Roughrider, Rio Tinto acquired for $654M in February 2012.

2. Thorburn Lake: 9 of 15 drill holes have intersected uranium mineralization.

3. Madison and 2Z Lake: contain shallow (<100m thick) sandstone-hosted uranium mineralization, and is along strike from U-mineralized conductors. Represent good potential for discovery of new basement-hosted uranium deposits.

24 NexGen Summary • Arrow, a world-class uranium discovery that keeps growing

• +90% of holes hitting mineralization

• Aggressive and deliberate drilling methodology

• Area of mineralization 645 m x 215 m, vertical extent commencing from 100 m down to 920 m

• Two high-grade shear zones; A2 & A3 identified with broad intercepts of high-grade uranium encountered

• Arrow remains open in every direction and at depth with AR-15-44b – recently drilled 50, 100 and 210m step outs to southwest all hit mineralization

• A brand new discovery made 3.7km northeast of Arrow called “Bow”

• Closed C$27.3M bought-deal financing in May 2015

Goldcorp’s Newest Mine:

Mine Plan • 1,145m depth (starting at 55m

from surface)

Average Gold Grade • 6.34g/t Au (equivalent to 0.27%

U3O8)

Development Capex • US$1.8 billion

32 Arrow: No Freezing

• Arrow is basement-hosted which means NO freezing would be required

• Unlike McArthur River and Cigar Lake which have 600 and 480m of sandstone on top of the ore bodies, respectively - Arrow only has 10-20m of sandstone within 80m of surface

• Cigar Lake is world-class in size and grade, but faces significant challenges due to fact ore is sandstone-hosted and requires futuristic mining methods
